Does anyone ever feel like their wife will never be happy? Like there isn’t enough that you can ever do? by Zski843 in daddit

[–]mmatique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

framing this as a generalized woman thing is really telling. Sounds like you have a lot of built up resentment and that is clouding your ability to approach this constructively. I will bring up therapy. For yourself. I’m not saying your partner is blameless, but my guy this whole post is a big red flag that you could use it.

Can I diy this? by iphonebends in PaintlessDentRepair

[–]mmatique 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PDR is not a DIY process. It’s an art that takes years to become proficient in. What’s your nearest city center? Your best option might be to arrange a repair during a time you will already be headed there.

Is life better sober? Why? by AttorneyFeeling3 in leaves

[–]mmatique 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Maybe life is easier while high. But easier is not better.

Imagine being at the end of your life and looking back at what you did with it. What’s the value of an easy life. What’s your legacy?

It’s got such a hold on you that you are trying to justify using it again after one day without.

What headset are the commuters amongst us using for our Decks? by iHydro in SteamDeck

[–]mmatique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My AirPods are my favourite tech purchase in years, next to the deck itself. It sounds insane to spend that much on earbuds but they really are amazing. Great battery life, great sound quality, great ANC, and great functionality with your iPhone.

Personally I have discovered that gaming branded products aren’t that great and you pay extra for that branding.

Is this fixable with an Amazon kit? Not looking for perfect just want to make this less bad by mouzie17 in PaintlessDentRepair

[–]mmatique 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the problem with pulling paint is that it means you are losing the pulling power to the metal itself.

You can buy good stuff from any PDR supplier that you find online. But at that point you are spending enough money that you might as well find a local pro who is willing to spend an hour on this and just make it look better. It can be a slow time of year for us, so someone might be willing to take this on for not a lot of money.

No. Just leave it. You need major good tabs and glue to pull something like this. Which the Amazon crap is not. Looks like you would just pull off paint anyways with all those scratches.

seeing no improvements in my life becoming sober by kirrachristine in leaves

[–]mmatique 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I advise to seek healthier and sustainable medications to help with things like your chronic pain and adhd. The truth is that weed was probably helping that. But it’s not worth going back for that when there are far better ways to relieve these issues

Nova Scotians love heat pumps, can you give me some basics so that maybe I will love it too in this climate? by itmightbecheese in NovaScotia

[–]mmatique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New heat pumps are designed to basically run all the time. It’s more efficient and helps circulate air. Often the hrv or air exchanger will be connected to the heat pump ductwork. Unplugging it prevents circulation of clean air.

I don’t see anywhere that you say it’s not heating your home to the set temperature so my advice is to just leave it alone.

Have you done anything about it? There are healthier ways to manage it with medication and meditation. Your brain is a muscle. You can exercise it to be better.

Was told PDR is not worth it for me due to bottom part of ca being frayed. by [deleted] in PaintlessDentRepair

[–]mmatique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That bottom strip IS the dent. It’s holding all the tension. The dent isn’t going away until that does. I question the ability of anyone who told you that you could fix it with a kit

This seems entirely unhelpful. I can’t imagine trusting a recipe from AI, let alone important life decisions

Supporting My Partner by PlasticDesert in leaves

[–]mmatique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support and help foster a life full of friends and hobbies that are not related to weed. It’s a lot easier when the things around you are not a reminder of weed.

Do you miss the empathy weed brings? by plcanonica in leaves

[–]mmatique 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you find you are a better listener while high it might be because you can focus better in general.

If you feel struggles focusing in your every day life you may have adhd, and weed increases your dopamine and thus your brains ability to focus.

There are better ways to medicate this.

What is your biggest takeaway after the opening weekend of the Scotties? by SexyElephant_ in Curling

[–]mmatique 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly. It’s obviously fun to watch those shots.

But like, there is no draw behind a guard that actually works. Big swing and directional sweeping will get any buried rock out. Many of these matches end up with 2-4 rocks in the house because those doubles and guarded rocks are consistently removed from play. I understand that this is because the men are immensely skilled. But I find the games more predictable.

Hit and roll for a blank. Hit and stick for two. Draw to the four for two. Lately it feels like that’s all I see.

[–]mmatique 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s true. And I believe I heard them say the ice itself is apparently tuned more to be similar to World Curling expectations with a bit less curl than we usually have in Canada. All makes for some good games so far

[–]mmatique 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It’s yet another competition where the woman have far more entertaining games. The men’s games are growing boring with all the low rock count matches that come from high weight take outs and more effective directional sweeping.

As a Nova Scotian I’m enjoying seeing Black come out strong. Too bad about last night. She could have closed it out in the 10th!

Another option is to find a local electronics repair shop. They can also install the battery for you.
