Wheel for xbox series s

What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

I play a lot of Paradox games such as Stellaris, CKIII, and HOI4. I also love single player adventures which often require higher graphics requirements such as RDR2, Witcher 3, and Cyberpunk 2077. I want to be able to enjoy these games at or about maximum graphics fidelity as well as be able to have a bit of shelf life so I can run this PC for at least 5 years and keep up a little with game graphics as they improve.
For example, I've been running my intel i5/980ti rig since 2016 and it still plays all those games but is starting to STRUGGLE.
I also might find myself using matlab for statistical analysis and modelling, but nothing that I think should be too crazy for an average PC.
Finally, this is where I get ALL my entertainment, including streaming services and such but I doubt a rig built to play games is going to have any issue with that.

What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

I'm kind of flexible on this, but I don't want to go too hog wild. I'm also pretty ignorant on current pricing so I'll have to follow advice.

When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.

I am willing to pull the trigger on a solid build at a good price immediately.

What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (ToweOS/monitokeyboard/mouse/etc)

The whole shebang. Tower, new monitor, keyboard, and mouse. I wouldn't mind a sound system as I've been using a bluetooth JBL charge forever now.

Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?

USA, MT

If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.

N/A

Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?

No.

Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)

A large SSD, plenty of storage so the PC can last several years.

Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-towefull-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?

I prefer sleek, dark, no RGB. I want something that performs and stays cool while playing graphics intensive or memory intensive games.

Do you need a copy of Windows included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference?

Yep, probably. I probably couldn't score a free key.

Extra info or particulars:

I work in a restaurant where there is tip sharing between the servers. It’s usually not too bad since it’s a smaller ma and pa restaurant and it’s usually just the same 2 servers working and there’s always constant traffic so tips are decent.
Recently the server I usually work with, had to cut back on hours to help care for her husband since he has a lot of medical issues which require her attention.
So with that I had to basically be a lone server working front of house for this small restaurant. Which is fine. I’d like to say that I do a great job juggling multiple tables and taking to go orders. Hard work but I get rewarded for it accordingly.
So about roughly a month ago. The owners (they are husband and wife) have started to help me whenever one or the other is there. The help is not unwelcome, however, it is to my understanding owners are not allowed to take employees tips of any kind. Because. You just don’t do that. Looked it up and it’s against the law. If there’s something I’m missing feel free to correct me.
I asked them why they do that. Their best answer is always: “It’s because I’m the boss and I can do that.” Really childish answer in my opinion. It’s gotten to the point where they take my server tips based on how they’re feeling that day. It’s extremely messed up.
I show up very early before a shift since I’m usually by myself and get all side jobs done. The boss usually shows up at opening then just walks around and takes maybe 1 or 2 tables orders. And they usually leave 2-3 hours early to go home at the end of a dinner or lunch shift but they come back before close to cash my tips out. But they almost always take half or more from my tips. How does that make sense? If I’m pulling a double, I’m here all day , but they can come and go on a whim cause it’s their business? (Ok yes they can do that), but to feel entitled to take half of my earnings for that day. Im pretty sure there’s a law that’s broken in there somewhere.
I had recently made roughly $300 pulling a double last Tuesday. They said i had to give them half because they “helped me” even though they just walked around and arrived late and left early. This past Wednesday, i worked a lunch shift and earned $100. They said i had to give them $70 cause they felt like I didn’t work hard enough as they did.
I’m fed up, and yes. I am frantically job searching cause I know this isn’t how you run a restaurant. I did contact the department of labor for my state but I have yet to receive an answer back.

At this point i’m terrified of asking for more tests because of looking dumb or like a hypochondriac… i’m very much aware that it could be anxiety, but what if it’s not?
Not asking for a diagnosis but for the last year I’ve experienced extreme fatigue, headaches, heart palpitations, dizzy spells, my tests do show low cortisol and testosterone… but even then it’s just attributed to anxiety, I know anxiety can look that way and I haven’t discounted it but want to be sure.
Naturapathic diagnosed adrenal fatigue but regular doctors don’t recognize that and im not sure if it’s valid in general…
Does anyone have any advice? Or has experienced this and these feelings?

Hey all, after reading a post and watching a video from a few days ago, I’m curious what everyone else’s thoughts are on this.
For people that didn’t get to watch the video, the premise is that before the LCMS can address our declining population, we need to solve the pastor shortage problem.
So, how do we address the issue that is the pastor shortage in the LCMS? I’m curious to hear from all different perspectives (pastors, other church workers, seminarians/vicars, lay people, etc.). What solutions can we as a church body come up with? What unforeseen problems are we not thinking of?

Ok Reddit, I once saw a post on here where someone asked for help trying to translate what their toddler was saying, and you all came through, so I’m hoping you can help me out too. Almost every time my 2-year-old wakes up from sleeping (morning or after nap), she says what sounds like “Diarrhea up time!”…or “Dowry up time!”. Obviously I understand the “up time” part (i.e. time to get up. She’s always saying things like this - “sleepy time”, “play time”, etc.) but my partner and I have NO IDEA what the beginning part is. She’s been saying this for a couple months and we have yet to decipher it. Any ideas??? Maybe it’s something they say at daycare when waking up from a nap??

(ACROSS THE SPIDER-VERSE SPOILERS)
so. one main thing about ATSV and the collapse of the multiverse, is Miguel’s theory that each “canon-event” is required for that universe to stay intact - but that’s too linear to be true.
the disruption of a canon-event should immediately lead to the collapse of that universe. that’s what people are assuming happens in Mumbattan when Pavitr’s captain doesn’t die. The universe immediately starts collapsing ~ but isn’t that Spot’s fault?
The building was being eaten by spots the entire time, kinda being indicated as the reason the building collapses (there’s a dark line around the building)
if Pavitr’s canon event is that captain dying, isn’t it Spot’s fault? isn’t this ALL Spots fault?
Miles from Earth-42 was supposed to be bitten, yeah, but the second it doesn’t bite him, the universe should theoretically start collapsing. Our Miles shouldn’t be spider-man. Since neither are collapsing, Peter B. Parker’s death (and by proxy, Spot’s involvement in making Miles spider-man) is all canon. The anomalies aren’t actual anomalies. Either that, or canon can change.
another bit that’s been stuck in my head since watching, what if the canon disruption only happens when ANOTHER spider-man interferes? not only would it make (somewhat) sense, but it could show us what’s next for Tom’s Peter Parker.
in No Way Home, MJ falls off the side of the tower. Holland’s Peter was about to save her, but Green Goblin stopped him. Andrew then saved MJ, which in theory would be another canon-event for Holland, but it was disrupted by Andrew.
if BTSV has a similar explanation, the next Holland movie could tie SV directly into the MCU (despite it already being fully linked essentially) and show Peters universe collapsing due to MJ being alive, since that could’ve been a “canon event” for him.
Guess we’ll see, but this all banks on Miguel’s multiverse theory being mostly wrong, since it all seems too linear.

Hi everyone, I just wanted to share an experience between my inner world and LSD.
I begin by saying that I don’t recommend the use of illegal substances to auto- medicate if you’re not ready or think it’ll affect you in a negative way. Be always prudent.
I’m a (20yo) girl and tried LSD a few times in my life but I’ve never experienced anything like this.
I basically know I have PTSD from losing my mum when I was 16 due to cancer and CPTSD from a rough childhood where I was divided between my parents and then took away from my dad with substance abuse.
Anyway, I basically don’t know when or how it happened but my ego, my vision of self, had become more and more shattered as time passed, I didn’t know who I am anymore and everything was an anxiety or depression trigger, mostly going back to my home in fact I basically never go back home anymore to avoid dissociating and possible triggers.
I took a LSD drop of 200 mg and had the best trip of my life because in these last months I feel like I’ve accomplished a lot (gone out living by myself), passing university exams etc. Slowly, as I was listening to live tribal music, the acid kicked in and the first thought I had in mind was the union, the origin, the number one where everything comes together, I tried to find my centre and can say it happened. (Then I had a weird experience with runic alphabet, I’ve seen Tiwaz, the rune with the arrow symbol, but that’s another story, if anyone knows anything about runic alphabet write to me) I’ve never felt more connected with myself and instead of self blaming I started listening to myself and my inner child, I was treating me as if I was my best friend I know I have a sun inside of me and it deserves to shine regardless of what happened to me.
hadn’t realised how much I got used to being depressed or anxious. I personally feel more at peace with myself than I ever felt in almost 4 years. It’s incredible how much our brain gets used to feeling bad I finally felt how I “was supposed to” and still feeling like this even if the acid wore out, I feel like myself again, I feel like I am enough and I am beautiful I feel like a warrior, not a victim. I cried thinking about all of this but they weren’t sad and bitter tears they were tears of liberation and freedom. It’s incredible how this substance could potentially change your approach to deep trauma, it makes you change point of view and embraces your pain. LSD doesn’t heal you, it makes you more comfortable with the paradox of life and helps you overcome taboo topics such as death.
There could be a lot of things I could write that this sacred molecule has taught me, I can only say it helped me more than psychotherapy. (I’m not saying everyone should use this instead of going to therapy but for me it worked)
Eventually sorry for my English, I’m not mother tongue I’m from Italy, thanks for reading :)

Just rode it for the first time and it’s clear the hype is real, we climbed up the hill at .2 miles an hour really got my heart pumping , then getting pulled into the drop and up the first hill, good things it doesn’t have any airtime because I was terrified. Then we really starting picking up speed but good thing the brakes kept slowing us down cause it would’ve been way too intense for me, And the straight journey through the trees would’ve been ruined with airtime hills or turns so luckily it just goes straight so I can enjoy the view. So many people hype this coaster as being the greatest woodie ever and it surely is , action at every second intense, no dull moments 10/10

To me being an illustrator who’s recently joined the platform it seems like if you wasn’t on the early days and build up a big following your no longer able to build or get visibility on the platform .
They want you pay for reach but that does not work very well at all.
Has it currently stands it’s just an app for the giants .

i have one extra ticket to tonight’s show in houston !! i would like to get about $40 for it but i also don’t want it to go to waste to im flexible !!

Throwaway for obvious embarrassing reasons. On mobile and English is not my first language. Apologies for formation and/or grammar.
I feel like the worst human being. I work with a family member (same company, not the same department), lets call her S. During a meeting I received news of S’s manager going away due to pursuing more challenging opportunities (this info is freely sharable) and after meeting I met up with S (not on purpose) and we discussed the news, she shared with me that her manager had been asked to leave (this info was not meant to be shareable). Stupidly I shared the news with my colleagues. I forgot for a moment where the news came from. So so stupid. Anyway it’s like the episode of Friends where Ross runs around trying to stop the flow of info to Rachel. But instead I am posibly jepordizing S’s reputation (I have no idea how widely this is known or not) but most importantly S’s manager although was let go, deserves the dignity of not having this info circulated without her consent. I feel like a bag of dicks. What should I do? Do I write to my colleagues? We have an ok relationship. Do I make a group chat (we have a main one, but some people were WFH today and don’t know the news) or should I talk individualy? Do I do nothing at all? What is the best course here?

I wonder if it’s normal that they’re only scheduling me 8.5 hours the two weeks after training?
Would you guys recommend for me to become a borrowed partner after the third week comes? I’m a bit nervous if I were to mess up in another Starbucks, but I need more hours and I actually fell in love with being a barista.

Anyone know how to claim your mount once you subbed a channel that has drops enabled twice.
All of my info is paired to my blizz and twitch so that’s not an issue. Just need to know if I’m looking for an email or if it’s on my Battle.net?

I asked in Max’s chat last night and it seemed no one knew for sure. What I’m talking about is things like Frozen, does this also count as the enemy is chilled? Stunned? Immobilized? Do I lose bonus damage from enemies being slowed if they are frozen?
This also makes me wonder what counts as crowd controlled? I assume all of the above basically.
I assume Frozen is also stunned, but stunned is not frozen.
I got a cool ring that had perfect things other than potentially stunned and wasn’t sure if my frost nova counts as stunning them.
Thanks for any info!!

Our invitations just went out and family members have started receiving them.
So far…..
We have received 2 online rsvps Family members questioning what the food is. Family members asking if their kids are invited.
We gave our guest the option to rsvp the old fashion way, and the online for whatever best suits their needs. To stop guest from special requesting meals we were very general on the meal option card Chicken, tilapia, or vegetarian. Honestly at this point I feel they’re lucky to get those options. I’ve been to weddings where we didn’t get a choice lol.
If we address invites as Mr and mrs why do people think their kids are invited. There will be some kids. But only our nieces and nephews. Why can’t people take the hint. If they went to the online rsvp they would see that it’s just the 2 adults in the party. No option for kids.
On top of that why can’t people just select a dish. We gave a line to write in dietary restrictions, and allergies so we could let the venue know. I’m sure this week is going to be hell for us as more invites are received.
Anyone else having similar issues?

Let’s say hypothetically. Eisenhowers fictional great Nephew is running for President. His biggest accomplishments in life are being a DA, law professor, and some environmental pro-bono action. They randomly decide to run for President on a traditional Democrat platform. How long would it take for the pod to call them inexperienced, nepotistic, political royalty, grifting, unaccomplished, and unqualified. cough cough RFK Jr

If rebuilding credit is a long game then I’m in for an excruciating time hence my frequent posts in this thread so thank you for your indulgence. Here’s my snapshot today.
Total debt: 2108 in credit card, 3500 in personal loan, 21000 car loan. All on time.
8 occurrences of late payments due to not tracking my cards which is a very dumb mistake.
1 collection of $600 that I paid off and waiting for it to fall off.
What’s helping my score is long credit history and good mix. What’s hurting is the high utilization, payment history.
Experian: 589 Credit Karma (which I know isn’t real but the seeing the number is hopeful): 630
I’m hoping to raise my score back to high 700’s to buy a house in two years. Given current stats, please tell me if this is realistic.
Thanks!
