Block and move on. It's not worth the effort. The points don't matter and the rules are all made up anyway.
Nobody ever feels perfect in their own bodies, getting stuck in the feedback loop of not accepting and tweaking just ends up becoming a halting problem. When do you stop? What is good enough? I think your mom might be on to something there and just didn't know how to say it.
The trick is to just tell yourself you look great every time you see yourself. Find something you like and ignore literally everything else, just focus on that. Eventually you start to see more that you like than what you don't, even if nothing changes.
It's fucking hard.
It's so fucking hard to say I like the way this looks when I hate so much of the rest, but eventually I started to just hate less and less of what I saw.
You look great. Getting into your head just ends up putting you right back into that feedback loop so change the feedback loop and that's all mental, not physical.
It's funny how often these are the same people that complained about math word problems and extracting formulae out of them in school.
It probably won't matter as much, your best bet is to put it into useful assets while the money still has spending power.
Get In My Swamp.
Yes, it is exactly what it sounds like.
There are sequels.
Up to firmware 12.70 which isn't quite as bad as just launch consoles, but still. Give it time, motivated hackers make some insane things happen.
XDA has gotten so much worse in the last 6 months it is astounding. Some unreal work is being done to kill custom android ROMs.
Gears. The car's transmission alone has probably 30 meshed together on its own, not to mention gears are in everything. Bearings too. Is a sphere a wheel? Casters, slide rails with wheel runners, washers, and conveyor belts feel like they deserve a spot as they are round locomotive devices.
Doors also are very rare in nature, but a rock pretty regularly forms the right shape for a wheel.
I might be missing the forest for something that looks like trees, but it feels like there are overwhelmingly more wheels than doors.
Look at the manual and spec sheets of your supply. It should provide a load chart that has its efficiency at various points. You want your system wattage at full load to sit at the same number as the supplies highest efficiency. The percentage of power lost to conversion comes out as heat, and heat is what kills components.
A few percent at something like 500w can be the difference of 10-15w of extra heat for the supply to deal with. 75% efficiency from a cheaper 850w supply run at the same 500w would leave you with ~125w of power to cool, most of it concentrated on a few components in the supply.
or be absolutely anything you want (within reason!)
