Maybe it'll be the best year yet
  • A friend of mine posted it as her Insta note and I just silently thought 'noooo.'

  • Had a cottagecore night where I made flatbreads from scratch, felt good.
  • Unfortunately, I was starving by the time I finished them and ate them so fast that I didn't think to take pictures, but this is the recipe I used

  • Women's fashion
  • TJ Maxx and similar stores have pretty good prices on basic bras. I got three for $18 like three years ago and I haven't needed any others since.

  • Just be naked, same effect, less money in my experience. (Unless you mean like underwear, then unfortunately we're stuck, but everything else, yeah, thrift)

  • Nice tie too

    Does a "10 hour drive" include breaks?
  • The time is usually an estimate, or the best case scenario in my head. If I have to stop and add more time, I do. But 10 hours is probably what google maps told me it is. I drove straight 9 hours or so once, I think I stopped twice to use the bathroom/get a snack. Got there at 2am. It was rough, wouldn't do it again.

  • Little Bear is such a vibe.

  • Cottagecore activity recommendation thread!
  • Yes, absolutely! That is all under the cottagecore umbrella and we'd love to see what you post! Thank you!

  • What is something really stupid you purchased that turned out far better than expected?
  • Hello, I am the tumble dry spouse and the number of times I've been thwapped in the face with elastic in the middle of the night is too damn high. I'm going to get some of these. Do you have a tutorial or explanation of how you sewed some?

  • Can anyone help me with my graphics card issues? AMD Radeon 580 (SOLVED)
  • It worked! You're a lifesaver. Thank you so much!

  • Can anyone help me with my graphics card issues? AMD Radeon 580 (SOLVED)
  • So far so good, drivers were removed fine and it seems the software installer is picking up the graphics card. The drivers are installing now and I'll restart once it's done and hopefully that gets us where we need to be.

  • It is on a surge protector, luckily this isn't my work computer, just my personal one.

  • Can anyone help me with my graphics card issues? AMD Radeon 580 (SOLVED)

    Edit: Solved, thanks to Matthew and everyone else for helping me out. Leaving this up just in case someone needs to search it in the future. Thank you!

    I'm so sorry if this isn't the right place for it, but I tried to search communities and couldn't find one specifically for questions like this.

    I'm running an AMD Radeon 580 Series, if it helps

    I'm not sure which details are relevant so I'm just going to explain the whole situation and hopefully it helps:

    So a couple days ago I had a brownout of my power and my computer got shut off. My second monitor seemed to die at the same time, so I unplugged it and plan to get a new one.

    Now, when I play games my computer is telling me my graphics card doesn't meet the minimum requirements.

    I tried to open up the software for the graphics card but a box comes up saying: "The version of AMD Radeon Software you have launched is not compatible with your currently installed graphics driver. Please check your system for other versions of Radeon Software that may currently be installed. A factory reset of your Radeon software installation is recommended. More information about this problem can be found at: Link that doesn't work"

    So I've looked at my drivers, updated them, did a whole tutorial on how to fix it involving ending process tress and %localappdata% but that didn't work. I tried to open the BIOS to try and figure it out but that didn't seem to give me any info.

    And I can't find a way to factory reset my radeon software without the Radeon Software app. I've run compatibility troubleshooters, that did nothing.

    And yes, I've turned my computer off and on many times in the process but nothing has worked. So please, if anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it. I just bought two new games on the Steam Summer Sale and I'd really like to be able to play them.

    Thanks so much.

    How to repair damaged interior doors?
  • Awesome! Thank you!

  • How to repair damaged interior doors?
  • Yeah I was thinking about getting a bit wacky with it, but I'm not sure if my husband would be on board. But I'll start with removing the vaneer and sanding down, definitely. Thanks!

  • How to repair damaged interior doors?

    Every door in my house looks like this due to past owner pets and a bit of my own cats helping the damage along. It's been a project on the list for years and now i'm finally getting to it.

    I, of course, started with looking at new doors. But my doors are a non-standard size as far as I can tell (29.75in x 79.25in) so I think I would have to get the cut custom to fit?

    I then looked into things like peel and stick wallpaper and the like but I don't know if that will look good, or lay properly flat since it's so damaged and, of course, my cats just need one swipe to damage it yet again.

    Then I looked into the wood filler, which I didn't know was a thing until I saw a comment on a door repair video. But I'm not sure if that will work here?

    So that's all that I've researched but I'm unsure as to what the best approach is, any help would be appreciated. I would really like to make as little waste and spend as little money as possible, while still have staying power to the repair. How would you go about it? Any tips/tricks?

    Thanks for the help!

    What are you reading this week? [July 3-July 9, 2023]
  • Just finished Rules for a Knight by Ethan Hawke. Very sweet and sad book, enjoyed it very much.

  • Social/Friend tag sharing thread
  • Kinder World

    It's a cute little, cottagecore esque app that helps out with emotional stuff while letting you grow house plants and decorate rooms. It's free, I have no connection officially to it. I just find it cute. Anyway, they just added the ability to add friends and my friend code is FCYRE9 should anyone want to add me.

    I may add more later for myself but that's the only one on my mind now because they just updated it today.
