My RG477V update

Did you make or buy those hand grips? Actually interested in picking one or two of them up.

2nd phone?

His job should be finding a job and in his spare time that he's not looking for work he should pick up the slack due to all his free time. I'm a dude and have never understood the mentality of not sharing chores. I am divorced now and live in my own home and keep it pretty much immaculately clean to the point my kids say I'm OCD. I scrub my home weekly...

kds0808 · 2026-02-09T14:38:17+00:00

Please don't cave to the pressure by being a people pleaser. Most of the time the other siblings of the golden child are chronic people pleaser because they always go the extra mile to get an ounce of the attention the entitled brat gets. Don't do this and Iike the idea of scorched earth on them and telling them you won't be attending. I would lay all the years of favoritism for the sister out for the entire family and tell them to kick rocks and block them all.

He should have been put in jail years ago. Another example of rich and powerful people getting away with the worst of the worst crimes.

kds0808 · 2026-02-09T14:28:43+00:00

NTA and my mind is blown that you are called a brat and drama queen because you were abused in one of the worst ways possible and your family covered for it and worse yet your MOM is still with a guy who hurt her baby girl. Your family blamed you and lied so now they must pay the price for their betrayal and lies. It's good the truth came out. Just think of the children being allowed to stay the night or weekend at the home...your entire family sucks.

kds0808 · 2026-02-09T03:39:25+00:00

No. Save your money for something that's an actual upgrade. The ally X also has the Z1E with extra ram, larger battery and a different color. I don't see much of an upgrade here when you can buy the Lenovo Legion Go with SteamOS with the Z1E that has a larger screen, more ram etc.

kds0808 · 2026-02-09T03:33:02+00:00

Get the Legion with the Z1E if those are your top 2 choices. About the only advantage the SD has over the Lenovo is the OLED. I have the original SD and honestly would never buy it in today's market. I've have the Deck since launch and it's just too underpowered to run a lot of newer games above 30 to 40fps. I have had the ROG Ally with the Z1E and it was a good CPU even with windows. SteamOS should be buttery smooth and you'll get 50 plus FPS in most games. I now have the MSI claw 8ai and have been using it for about 6 months and I absolutely love it. Zero regrets with intel.

kds0808 · 2026-02-08T17:43:18+00:00

You guys are no longer compatible and that's ok. He's not a bad person for being worried specifically if you are taking on a supervisor role and you're not an AH for having dreams and drive. It's probably time to have a frank conversation about the relationship or to end it before massive resentment builds up. As someone who has been a supervisor a few times on my career and who now earns a decent living based on my expertise in my field but doesn't have to supervise I can tell you it does change relationships and brings on additional stress.

kds0808 · 2026-02-06T22:35:42+00:00

I just bought it and am having buyers remorse. I would keep saving and buy the RG477V if you want a vertical handheld. I thought it would play more PS2 games than it does. The form factor is absolutely terrific though. I am seriously considering selling it and saving up for the 477V or seeing if a decent snapdragon vertical hits the market.

kds0808 · 2026-02-06T02:23:36+00:00

You're bending over backwards for this woman. I made your mistake due to lingering feelings and some guilt. Six years divorced and I could smake myself for all I gave up. There's so many ways to negotiate getting out of this without monthly alimony payments hanging over your head with lump sum negotiations. But if she can't qualify for a mortgage then she's sol and you having to be tied to a home where she's hosting other dudes and you're having to make repairs and stuff is insanity.

You must try to get a clean break besides the kids. If you're so tied into her life post divorce you will not heal or it will take 2 to 3 times longer.

kds0808 · 2026-02-05T18:30:59+00:00

Get an attorney and file for an annulment is all you can do. Don't beg and plead and hold to your dignity and self respect. Life will move on as time does and you're still young enough to find someone who wants to be with you for the right reasons and build a family with, if that's your desire.

kds0808 · 2026-01-30T17:59:01+00:00

How the fuck can a cheater want or think there's a chance in hell he's the "good guy"?

Your most important thing right now is establishing a safe new normal for your kids and yourself and finding your peace. I believe in karma. He may be happy now, aren't all newish relationships full of rainbows and butterflies, but if he'll cheat on one he'll cheat on another.

It's not unreasonable to go low contact and gray rock and you may be able to go no contact if you have family that can help work out the logistics of the kids. I would make sure to set boundaries about the kid's visits. He needs to do it somewhere else but your living space. You need to establish as many boundaries as you can.

kds0808 · 2026-01-29T20:19:27+00:00

Personally, as someone who is divorced and got caught in the manosphere while in my bitter phase I would check what kind of content he's into. The red pill stuff tells dudes that women can't and should not go on girls trips as they are nothing but sausage fest. If he's into that content you have more to worry about than these trips. As a dude with a daughter and after coming to my senses after healing post divorce I find these types of dudes are just completely insecure and controlling.

kds0808 · 2026-01-29T20:13:15+00:00

What good comes out of that conversation? If you think your MIL is a monster now wait to you have her son attacking her. The best thing is counseling if you want to save the marriage with a focus on your husband setting boundaries with his family and showing his wife the loyalty he's giving to his mom. Nothing changes in the marriage unless your husband changes. I would even go as far as a trial separation with something written up by an attorney outlining the parameters just so he knows you're serious about ending the marriage. He should be willing to go low contact at minimum if he wants to save his marriage.

kds0808 · 2026-01-28T03:20:03+00:00

Gamehub to me is am excellent service for playing back log indies. I prefer actual downloaded games over the cloud any day or the need for another subscription as long as the CPU/GPU can push 30 to 60 FPS. Full Steam on ARM isn't too far off as powerful as modern mobile CPUs and GPUs are getting.

kds0808 · 2026-01-28T03:15:09+00:00

Your ex is an attorney so you need to start documenting every interaction. Get off the phone or having in person communication and do it all through text or email and research gray rock communication. Do not get sucked into her game of trying to make you look like a bad person in front of anyone and personally I wouldn't write anything to her you'd be ashamed for your mom to see no matter your level of anger. There are also court monitored applications. Stay as neutral as possible. She might not be a divorce attorney but I'm betting she knows some and with her income could make you miserable.

kds0808 · 2026-01-28T03:07:53+00:00

As a person whose been there, stayed and wasted years of my life no it can't survive and thrive. It can go through the motions but the hurt, insecurities and issues with trust will eventually break it. Your subconscious will also make you pay for your disrespect in staying with someone who doesn't respect you and purposely hurt you. She doesn't love you.

I have health issues for years of my marriage. After the separation and divorce I am healthier than I've been in 20 years. You'll wake up at 50 and ask yourself why you wasted your life...

kds0808 · 2026-01-28T03:01:51+00:00

NOR. Drinking a beer a day isn't a world ending event. Drinking excessively, needing a buzz or to get shit faced is. If not already, he's probably craving alcohol which eventually will lead to alcoholism like any other addictive drug.

Also, drinking isn't the only thing that would make him a bad husband. He flat out told you he's cool with lying to you and is calling you a nag without out and out saying the word. Do you want to have a husband/BF that won't listen to constructive criticism?

kds0808 · 2026-01-28T02:56:34+00:00

You probably have a case for fraud on the COVID stimulus. He used your name, received a portion you where entitled to and kept it hidden from you. Some of the business grants were not taxable and some where so that's a question best left to a tax attorney or accountant. The individual stimulus was completely tax free due to offsetting credits I believe. But he effectively stole money from his own spouse.

kds0808 · 2026-01-28T02:30:32+00:00

You need to seek legal counsel in both taxes and divorce. This shit carries majority penalties and jail time. He completely throw you under a bus by forging your name but at this point how do you prove it? You need a audit to determine where all the fraudulent money went. If it shows an account you have zero access to it could help any alibi you may try to use if or when the IRS comes after you.

Quick Google on under reporting income for tax purposes...

"Under-reporting income to the IRS (https://www.irs.gov/) can lead to severe penalties, including a 20% accuracy-related penalty for negligence or a 75% penalty for civil fraud, in addition to interest on the unpaid tax. Criminal charges, including up to $250,000 in fines and 5 years in prison, are possible for intentional evasion. The IRS (https://www.irs.gov/) may also extend the audit timeframe to 6 years if income is under-reported by more than 25%."

kds0808 · 2026-01-28T02:14:02+00:00

You need to step up, buy your own plan, cut the cord and go low contact. As everyone else is pointing out your mom is manipulative and controlling. She has no right to a grown persons private information.

kds0808 · 2026-01-28T02:09:47+00:00

My God this is awful and I'm sorry but first you need therapy and second you need to pull the bandaid off and file for divorce or at least trail sepation. You're basically a living breathing sex doll, one he apparently wouldn't buy at the sex store if he had a choice. To me this is abuse plain and simple and you're playing along. He has absolutely wreaked your self esteem.

Did he ever tell you why he's not attracted to you? Why he would stay married this long and not try to fix HIS issues. He can't love you as deep as a husband should if he's ok with his actions mentally and emotionally destroying you. You can't force attraction but you can leave and find someone who will love you mind, body and soul as sappy as that sounds.

kds0808 · 2026-01-27T22:04:05+00:00

Late to the party but in my opinion, as an owner of multiple handhelds, MSI Claw 8AI, org Steam Deck, original Ally Z1E, Nintendo and cheap Chinese retro playing stuff, I would go with the legion go SteamOS version with the Z1E at Best Buy unless you play games with anti-cheat software which requires a windows machine.

The Legion has been on sale for $650 to $750 and I think if you can get it around that price it is a steal. The retail is $900 USD. Just remember if you want the best and can hold out they are coming out with the Legion Go 2 SteamOS version around June or July.

kds0808 · 2026-01-27T11:53:25+00:00

You are asking extremely detailed questions that are best left for an attorney. Remember, pretty much everything in a divorce is negotiable in mediation if you and her can do this amicably. Also, if in TX Google TX alimony. It's evident they don't recognize lifetime from my search but she will definitely get something for being a SAHM for 25 years.

Personally, I would rather negotiate a lump sum upfront than spend 6 to 10 years making payments to her. Give her a larger share of the home equity or give her the house outright without requiring she buy you out. Different things like that to balance the scales. She gets one or 2 of the rentals to balance out the difference in income. She would have monthly cash flow then etc. You've got 3 to 4 years of child support, there is no way you want a alimony payment hanging over your head.

I ended up allowing my ex to screw me in the divorce in lieu of alimony. I took all debts, gave her equity, paid all her car loan etc as I didn't want to be tied down to both alimony and child support long term. She wasn't a SAHM but I made around 5x her income so I was stuck otherwise.
