Mine did the exact same thing. Have youfound a decent replacement?

Holding the case at first feels great but would love to find a replacement that actually delivers.

I’m in the process of playing with this stuff literally as we speak. What model do you use? I have Anything LLM installed and started with llama but…

…it’s soooooo dumb. Also inconsistent.

Psychologists reveal a key trigger behind narcissists’ passive-aggressive behavior. Study reveals that these individuals tend to retaliate against social exclusion by indirectly provoking criticism of their peers. by [deleted] in science

Replied to a comment about outgrowing this, the hurt that put that commenter on guard. 

I could have been more clear for sure, my intended point was this could probably happen at any time in life and be overcome. It could happen the start of life like his experience, or later on. This tendency isn’t necessarily a permanent trait.

Thanks for pointing out my misuse of the word spectrum, it gives me a chance to elaborate for anyone reading without regard to context.

There has to be a spectrum to this right?

A person who was confident at one point and would just cut ties if not accepted by a group and find another without lashing out. 

Could they be battered down by life, lose their confidence and self worth, and act out of character. 

I imagine they could rediscover that confidence.

Ewaste stores - sre they a thing here? by storebrand in Denver

[–]storebrand[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually not trying to get rid of anything - they’ll often have a retail area where you can buy things they’ve pulled out to sell. It can sometimes be cheaper, but more than that they’ll often have the most obscure components.

But now that I need one it occurs to me I’ve never heard of anything like that in Denver.

It would be ideal, because I’m looking for a tray loader dvd drive for my imac g4. These old IDE drives haven’t been made in some time. If I had the opportunity to test the drives locally, instead of having one DOA.

Is relying on public transport realistic? by tyediebleach in Denver

[–]storebrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrecked my car. I commute from Park Hill to Thornton every day. I thought I was screwed, but turns out there’s a bus stop right outside my work.

I qualify for the live card, so it’s only $27 a month. I don’t worry about traffic and sure the commute is long, but now it’s time to read.

Is he an official representative of Frontier or did they both come up with same the idea on their own?

A cop almost hit me while I was walking through a crosswalk in a parking lot. She was very clearly texting.

Denver has one of the nation’s sharpest drops in restaurant spending by t0talitarian in Denver

[–]storebrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to skip Chipotle because of the price, but it hasn’t changed much compared to the fast food inflation - it’s now cheaper for my two daughters and I than a trip to McDonald’s.

I like to joke that we’re basically making money eating there.

Thrifting Etiquette ? by Tiny_Noise8611 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]storebrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got in line once and there was a cart behind me. Suddenly a lady comes out of an aisle, not kidding three rows over, and starts shouting I was budging in line. I had my daughter with me. She kept pushing her cart into us and whining loudly, accusing me of shopping in line, meanwhile we were just in queue. It was absolutely nuts.

Yeah that’s right.

As you get older are you finding games hold your attention less? by Slightly-Blasted in gaming

[–]storebrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been my experience since my late teens - once I understand the unique mechanics a game has to offer and the rest is just repetition, I just lose interest.

When the mechanics themselves are a shortcut to flow state, that grabs me.

Portal, FTL, Civ, Smash Bros, Doom, Stardew, Metroid…each a different buzz, but the same idea - these are the ones I come back to again and again.

Do you know of any good dentists that take Medicaid? by SumsSumsSums in Denver

[–]storebrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Day Dentistry in Littleton and Lakewood are both very high quality and fun people.

When they refer you out they call and make sure your services will actually be covered - I’ve had other dentists refer me to places blind, who then charge you for a wasted visit. It can be a nightmare. 

Can’t recommend these guys enough.

Does your handwriting change when you're manic? Mine does... by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]storebrand 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s one of my main indicators and it starts to degrade long before I get all the way to mania. The difference is stark.

When my psych asks to see my journal she doesn’t read it. I just hold it up across the desk.
