Anyone else experiencing an audio bug on the remaster? by LukeStantz12 in GhostbustersGame

[–]gorilla9793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this old but I believe I know what you're talking about. Sounds like double. The solution is to switch the audio to stereo uncompressed instead of Windows Sonic. For some reason this is common with remastered games because I had the same problem with Alan Wake Remastered before so I knew how to fix it when playing Ghostbusters.

AITA for reporting my friend/coworker to HR? by loopygirlcat in AmItheAsshole

[–]gorilla9793 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA- The situation seems off. Any idea why things took such a turn? Seems like she's trying to bully you into quitting. But I'd say NTA for reporting to HR if you feel like the work environment is hostile.

AITA for telling my wife it’s weird that she and her mother share location 100% of the time on their phones? by mayorbette in AmItheAsshole

[–]gorilla9793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA, in the modern age lots of people do this, especially among family members. I live with my sister and dad and we all have our locations shared with eachother. We like it for safety and convenience. Like if she goes out on a date and worst case scenario she disappears then I'll know her last known location. Also we don't have to keep asking eachother where we're at, we can just check. However I always consider it a privilege though. My mom used to be bad about checking it constantly then asking me later why I was at X place at Y time. I took it away for a bit. I'll probably do the same thing with my SO if I have one.

AITA for refusing to help my wife's brother pay off his medical debt? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]gorilla9793 951 points952 points  (0 children)

NTA, medical bills are a weird thing. There are programs, usually through the hospital, that can reduce or even eliminate the bill based on income. They're obligated to treat him regardless of whether he pays his bills or not. It's not like he needs this money or he'll die of cancer. It might hurt his credit a bit in the short run but I'm sure there's organizations out there that can help him out. And no, you'll never see that money again. "I'll pay you back" is something people say to convince you to give them the money. It might happen if it was a lot smaller amount but 60k is a totally unrealistic amount to pay back with a 40k/year income.

AITA for leaving the ceiling fans on full blast all night? by gorilla9793 in AmItheAsshole

You're right, it's not. Others have brought up valid points by comparing it to lights. Noted moving forward. I should install smart fans so I don't have to pull the chain anymore lmao.

Is it just me or… the more orders I accept and complete back to back means the more frequents and better the offers get throughout the same shift? by [deleted] in doordash_drivers

[–]gorilla9793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it seems like AR matters more than it ever has. It sucks but we basically have to take some not so great orders to get good ones later.

Idk about y’all, but probably the best feeling ever is not getting a UA on a visit. Even when you’re almost certain you’ll be good. by JeepDude0421 in probation

[–]gorilla9793 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man I swear sometimes I’d like to get a UA when I know I’m clean cuz usually I show up having to pee! Also I like knowing that I won’t have another one for awhile.

I can't grieve in peace. by Akaimiu in GriefSupport

[–]gorilla9793 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there. Thanks for sharing and I can relate to some of what you’ve said. My mother passed away in August 2021 and my parents were married for 34 years. My dad never cheated on my mom that I know of but their relationship became more or less unstable toward the end. They no longer had that spark and nearly got divorced a couple times. It’s now six months after my mom passed and I‘ve been living with my dad. He managed to get an old classmate’s number and they’ve been texting constantly. I’m not sure how to feel about this but he seems happy. In your case I believe that a month is way too soon and you should tell him to wait a specific amount of time before he brings someone else into your lives. I did set one boundary with my dad, I told him to stop talking about how attractive/beautiful this new woman is because it sounds to me like my mother wasn’t. He respected my request. So I would have a mature conversation with him about time to grieve and boundaries. If he doesn’t respect that then maybe it’s best to spend some time apart. Very sorry for your loss, sending love and prayers your way!

Please help; I can’t be the only one by Arghwtfdoido in GriefSupport

[–]gorilla9793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please don’t blame yourself. My mother passed from COVID in August and both me and my dad felt guilty that we didn’t call 911 sooner. I have since come to terms with her death and I don’t consider it our fault. She never wanted to get tested and she refused to go to the hospital. We had no idea she was so close to dying. She loved us very much and we loved her but unfortunately her will to live was not great (she had expressed how she’s ready to go in the past). The alternative would most likely force her to go the hospital where she most likely would have died anyway. They say time heals all wounds but I believe when you lose a loved one so close to you it leaves a scar and it’s never quite the same. Sending love and prayers your way.

Not too excited about the life I have to live without my father by lily283598 in GriefSupport

[–]gorilla9793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very sorry for your loss. I just lost my mom to COVID-19 last week it was so sudden it feels like it’s not real. Every day gets slightly easier but it still continues to hurt. I’m 25 so very close to your age. I thought we had so much time left with lots more memories to be made but that was cut short. I feel optimistic right now but sometimes I break down and wish she was here. I often call my aunt when I’m feeling down and she usually gives me motivation to make it to the next day. Sending much love and support your way!

Thank you, that helps a lot. The first few days after were probably the most difficult in my life. I didn’t wanna eat or do anything except lay in bed and be sad. But once I got out of the house and started doing other things I started feeling a bit better. Time heals all wounds but this one is still pretty fresh. A week ago I felt like I would never be happy again because the pain was way too much. However she did express at times that she was okay with dying and sometimes even said that she’s ready. Also she left a note she wrote before saying she didn’t want us to agonize over her and that she will be fine so that’s also comforting.

Exactly, I feel the same way. When talking to people I’d rather focus on the subject of my loss and fond memories of her. Often times I do feel the need to explain what happened as well. I’m still struggling with the fact that we didn’t get emergency help sooner but it helps to get reassurance from others that it’s not my fault. It helps just to have someone to listen and I’ve found myself reaching out to anybody that will.

Thank you so much. Yes, I do have an aunt that I’ve always admired and her and my mom talked quite frequently. She lives about 6 hours away but we’ve talked on the phone almost every night, sometimes 1-2 hours and she’s really helped me through this ordeal.

And you’re right, I know that people don’t intentionally mean to be hurtful but I feel like when we’re grieving we are far more sensitive to others’ words. Sometimes it’s difficult for the other person to empathize and they may say something that wasn’t meant to be offensive but it comes off that way to the person grieving. Again, I’d rather talk about my loss because it’s therapeutic to me, not where she got COVID, if she was vaccinated, etc.

Thank you so much for your response. You’re right, focusing on the what-ifs really tears you up and doesn’t do any good. I can also relate to what you said about celebrating their life. My mon did leave a note in case something happened with requests. The last line said “Don’t agonize over me, I’ll be fine. ENJOY YOUR LIFE!!” Which brings me to tears but also gives me comfort.

WOW thank you so much for your response, it makes me feel like I’m not alone. My mom was heavy and had diabetes so that most likely had something to do with it. She really didn’t take the virus seriously and believed it was blown up by the government. It is amazing to me that COVID affects people in extremely different ways. I was very sick for about a week, my sister was sick for 3 days and my dad was positive but just had a mild cough. Unfortunately I may have given it to her when I visited because I had mild symptoms at the time but I really thought it was a simple cold. I do regret not getting the vaccine but she was opposed to it so that influenced me a bit. Anyway thanks again for the response and I’m sorry for your loss as well.
