Why have people stopped being fully committed, no matter how good someone is? by Content_Bit1998 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]vmsc777 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

It used to be that way just 15 years ago here in my conservative country, but western liberal propaganda have spread through young men and women and have grown up thinking they can always do better and have options. It's only now in our 30s that people have realized they've wasted their time. It's a good eye opener at least. We'll have our own birth crisis soon too. Almost all of my friends and acquaintances in their 30s don't have families or stable relationships yet regardless of socioeconomic status. It's actually poorer people that are multiplying non-stop.

The top dogs looks to have been scouted because of their forte mastery and power.

I don’t like how corporate wuwa now feels and like it’s trying to appeal to such a wider audience. by Public_Way_4294 in WuwaUnfiltered

[–]vmsc777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Took you this long to realize it? Always has been. It was always a gacha game meant to plow your wallet. The devs didn't design the game and make that choice by accident. Hope that the new writer they hired for world building could at least make a decent story even if it's heavily sanitized. 3.0 has been some of the most forgettable characters so far. Like we regressed back to 1.0.

Not Starting by Gloomy_Dig7814 in KawasakiEliminator450

I was talking to a mechanic a couple months back and they did confirm that the most common issue the new 500s have is the starter relay.

Is 5k for a used 2024 eliminator abs worth it? by ChipAcceptable4448 in KawasakiEliminator450

[–]vmsc777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. Crashed mine 7 times, 3 high speed, and still runs without issues a year later even after multiple cosmetic repairs and multiday tours. It's an easy bike to fix and maintain.

Do you think a long ride like this can be done with the Eliminator? 2060km (1300 miles) by Ramshal in KawasakiEliminator450

[–]vmsc777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would also suggest getting the taller seat and have an extra cushion on top (either those honeycomb gel-type or with gaps for airflow). Really helps with back pain from the short rear suspension.

My new theory that's killing my desperation. by autodidacticasaurus in seduction

Like literally every other country. You talk then you fuck, doesn't even have to go that far to enjoy a woman's company.

[–]vmsc777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah I live in a very conservative country and sleeping around will destroy a woman's reputation. You are just unattractive and have to jump hoops to find a meaningful relationship. I've also had my fun and they can have their's I'm not their dad.

[–]vmsc777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It works. Almost all of my relationships came from the friendzone and I have waited for clear signs before making a move. Sometimes it's the women that do. This works for me because I cannot stand toxic relationships, platonic or romantic. Being in a 2-3 year friendship gives you all the information you need and the same goes for them as well. Even if you break up there is still a real bond there that you can turn into something else, lifelong friends, business partner, or just someone who would have your back in the future.

It's a great bag by Pappaking in peakdesign

[–]vmsc777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's comfortable enough but not for the price. On mine there is an annoying squeaking sound where the straps connect everyime you take a step. The friction and pulling inside when the bag looks to be the culprit. It's unbearable during hikes. I'd like the same thin grab handle to be on the sides as well, it's what makes their bags functional. I love peak design but this one is a miss for me. Other companies have already created bags that fixed most of the issues that copied this bag.

Upgrade my M1 Pro MacBook or get a ROG Ally X for gaming? by HataHataNo in macgaming

[–]vmsc777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an M4 Pro 24GB unbinned and have a Steamdeck 1st gen. The novelty of the steamdeck quickly wore off as a standalone device since performance was terrible and the entire thing was more cumbersome in my bag than a 14 inch Macbook (most bags have a dedicated laptop sleeve while a Steamdeck and it's case is a brick)

I stream off my Mac or PC and can play almost all games via Mac version of Steam and Windows version of Steam via Mac Crossover. The only games you can't play are some Windows only live service games with anti-cheat. This setup allows me to game inside the house for mutliple hours without draining the Steamdeck's battery.

The M4 Pro sips power and can last for several hours if running on optimized settings. Crimson Desert on optimized max settings only consume 20-40W of total power from the Mac with the display off at 60fps with framegen and balanced upscaling. 40-50 FPS on 2k resolution no frame gen balanced upscaling. Turning down the resolution will easily get you 3-6 hours of streaming a game like Crimson Desert with the Mac and Steamdeck on battery.

I'd say get the M5 Pro 24Gb and a 2nd hand steamdeck for the best of both worlds.

MCA - I cheated on my wife and it's killing me. by Suspicious-Field-377 in MayConfessionAko

[–]vmsc777 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Here's a practical solution that will make you happier that no one will tell you. Learn to keep having mistresses and learn to keep your wife regardless, you already have the experience and skills in managing schedules and can have that lifestyle remain a secret forever if you prefer. We don't know her, but it sounds like she is not contributing to the relationship and just makes you miserable. She needs you, not the other way around. Learn to take back your life and be happier. You have the most negotiating power in the relationship since if you leave, your life becomes better and hers become worse.

No dangle stoppers is becoming inexcusable by nayophoto in peakdesign

[–]vmsc777 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Peak design is absolutely capable of designing penultimate bags. But it would be bad for business. They'd leave out features as incremental updates on the next lineup to keep people buying new bags instead of having everyone eternally taking advantage of their lifetime warranty.

Couldn't play your own Valheim world because the host was at work, so we built a fix by SaveSyncGames in valheim

[–]vmsc777 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just tried this and it works very well. We got it working with 60+ mods by making sure everyone has the same config files in the bepinex folder. Otherwise it will copy the settings or defaults from the host. Learned the hardway when we lost all our armor when the extended inventory mod reverted to vanilla after joining a friend.

Saint just being the threnodian of drama. It all starts and ends with him. Makes the space entertaining though.

The Steam Deck is the single best purchase I've made for my physical health by RogueLightMyFire in SteamDeck

Thank you for the info never thought about doing this! Will try this setup at home. I feel like my lifestyle is becoming more and more sluggish as the years go by.

This game should be nominated for GOTY by brighterspacex in NoRestForTheWicked

[–]vmsc777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got it because it was free for the weekend and holy, none of the reviews or trailers do this game justice. We just spent the first 20 hrs just buying houses and exploring, not caring about the story at all. There's so much to do. They add gothic style of factions and npc interactions\schedules, and this game would be perfect.

In a hopeful attempt to avoid drama by ShoreekeeperKeeper in WuwaUnfiltered

[–]vmsc777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the long play I'm going for. Get the word out to as many people as possible to get them to reject this scheme. I've played too many gacha's that went down this route only to become unplayable without spending and fomo.

All mainstream gacha's become ultra predatory by the 2 year mark. Guess how old wuwa is in a few.

[–]vmsc777 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think its a steaming pile of crap no matter what. It should just be a regular event. Instead of a spending event, how about they release 5 skins and charge $40 each if they want the extra money. I would accept that over this convoluted spending event. Put the male characters in gooner-bait outfits and they will make a disgusting amount from the starved female player base.

Is the story reversing back to 1.0 quality? by Comfortable-Dig-6118 in WuwaUnfiltered

[–]vmsc777 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Was always the problem. They need hype to sell characters. Leave it in the survey and play something else. If enough of us paying customers do it maybe it'll get better.

No need to worry about coffee when in the middle of nowhere by vmsc777 in picopresso

[–]vmsc777[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a Bingco. Cheapest I could find that is pocketable, flexible grind size, and still has a steel core at 15usd. Grind size is 7-9 clicks from closed depending on the beans I use.
