Hey guys a few weeks back I posted this post: https://lemdro.id/post/32878167. I have an update, with a help of a friend we upgraded my motherboard to a mb550 and upgraded my cpu to. Ryzen 7 5800XT from an intel i5 8600k. All my RAM is operating fine. So we assumed the RAM started to fail or the motherboard was dying. Glad I didn’t have to buy a full kit of ram. I’m going to be rocking my DDR4 2666 mhz until the end of time. Thanks for everyone’s help from the previous post!

Assuming your manager has the authority to increase your salary. I’m a manager and have 0 power in any say and very limited in what I can do. I’m just paid to babysit my staff to make sure the job is jobbing.

    Just stop caring. Take it one day at a time. Are there bad people? Sure. Are there good people? Sure. Does today suck? Maybe. Will tomorrow suck? Who knows. It's You vs You and the other you is winning. Just work on yourself one day at a time.

    When Reddit started charging for their API Key. Killed off Apollo, best Reddit app on iOS. Didn't want to try the Reddit App. After Apollo officially shutdown, I stuck around reddit through old.reddit and it wasn't the same. Deleted all my accounts and jumped over to Lemmy. Joined Lemm.ee then that shut down and moved over to lemdro.id

    The verification aspect of signing up for an instance. People say they'll leave Reddit but still go back to it. I was one of those until I remembered how they murdered my boy Apollo.

    Finally making the transition from Windows to a Linux. I'm pretty sure it's been asked several times but which Linux OS would you recommend a beginner to use? I've seen Ubuntu and Mint as a good start. Not looking to do much. Game here and there (not too worried about Linux compatibility), streaming, editing videos. If I break any rules. I'm sorry.

    Fucking Kia Bastards. Took my 23 Forte GT to the dealership because driver side was blowing hot air when ac was on. Thought the blend door broke it barely had 29k miles at the time. Second thought the freon had a leak. Got the warranty. They told me it would only apply if they "found" a leak. After 5 hours. They didnt find a leak had to pay $500 for diagnostics. The mechanic said it was extremely low on freon. Which would resonate with a LEAK. But since they didnt "find" it the warranty didnt apply. Never went back and have been fixing my car myself. Fuck Kia dealerships and mechanics. All they did was recharge the system told me to come back after 500 miles because they added a dye. Told the rep, "Fuck you guys, I'm never coming back."

    If we stopped spending and went on a "hunger" strike. Don't buy anything for a month. Only buy necessities food for children, the elderly, pets. And simply not buy more than that the corporations would fold over easy. We would add more stress if we stopped going to work at the same time. But what do I know?
