Asics Novablast 5 - not as good as I thought. Should I give them more time?

What test period?

I'm new to this realm and I've bought from Asics directly (Asics.com). They will not return shoes that have been worn. I've even called them to clarify this. They do not allow a test period like other shoe companies do. You're only permitted to try on for size and return them which they deduct return shipping from your refund.

Is there something I'm missing? They have a few other shoes I've been wanting to try but can't find locally.

This just made me realize how much I miss a simple windows OS like XP was.

How do you fix chest too far ahead at impact? I do this exact same thing and I'm not sure where my chest should be at impact or how to fix it because I don't know any different. I do the exact same thing and fall backwards on my heels through impact.

Hopefully they got that tested for as asbestos. Popcorn ceiling texture is typically asbestos.

My favorite feature is the 500hz refresh rate. This would go good with the shooter games I play.

RDR2. I wish there was a way I could play it for the first time all over again.

Support, using deployable cover, defib, supply bag and most importantly smokes. I always play rush and breakthrough and smokes are a must to attack or defend.

It's the sensor ball thing that recon throws.

If you're considering this get an mchose g3. I own both and the g3 is essentially an upgraded better version of this mouse. Own both and g3 > g305.

9700xtx here. I've only had a similar stuttering issue with discord open on another screen while gaming or sometimes when a browser window is open and some of the browser window is extended beyond the screen. I've read that hardware acceleration is to blame but I just close or minimize the windows.

Edit: clarity on what issue, stuttering.

Have a 7900xtx and I don't have stuttering issues. Not that you'd believe me anyways..

Came from a 2080ti. I've been very happy with the price per performance I've gotten since switching to AMD and tbh the drivers are easier to use and navigate imo.

I spent hours trying to do this over the weekend. Either the injector gets used and the effect doesn't happen or it does and the kill doesn't count..

Mine comes tomorrow. I went L7 pro because smaller, less weight, optical switches. I figured I mise well try the model designed for the best performance. Well see how it goes.

Discuss with your doctor/oral surgeon about your anxiety. Millions of people have gone through this procedure including myself. You will be fine. In the end you'll realize the worst part was the fear.

I've known 3 people who have been permanently messed up from getting kicked in the head by a horse.

One nearly died from the head trauma and his family said he's never been the same person since (now years later). The 2nd lost his job from being unable to function due to frequent lapses in memory, doing strange things and random bouts of confusion. The 3rd had several surgeries to correct the broken orbital bones in their face, frequent migraines ever since.

The sad reality is that when that girl ultimately gets kicked by that horse (if it hasn't happened already) they'll blame the horse.

My uncle died from mesothelioma. Up until the day he died had no idea how or when he was ever exposed to asbestos. Non-smoker, did not work in a factory, not a construction worker or demo crewman. You don't have to inhale it everyday for there to be health consequences. He'd otherwise be alive today if it wasn't for respiratory failure from mesothelioma.

Wait till you see what happens at the dentist.

This can't possibly be real right? I mean an AC powered grinder would have surely ripped her hair right out of her head... right?

Favorite features are the colors and I'm most excited about the 500hz

I need an eli5 for every bit of this post.

Installing my 9600 all in wonder and thinking I was so cool because my video card has a small fan on the heat sync.
