Too many Fragrance influencers focus on finding cheap knockoffs

I will start this off by saying i understand why they do this. Not everyone has the money to spend over $150 dollars per bottle so of course people will be interested if you can get a similar scent for a fraction of the price.

However, I am new to actually admiring and collecting fragrances, Like i have always had a few bottles but its only recently where i have paid more attention to what im putting on myself and what i might be interested. Youtube is aware of this because i now keep getting videos centered around fragrances but 90% of the videos and shorts i see are 'This is how you trick people into thinking you're rich by buying cheap dupes of expensive brands'.

It actively makes it HARDER for me to understand what i want and what bottles i should be looking out for due to my preferences. The only place i get fragrances at the moment are from in person stores, I like it like this because i can smell a bottle before i decide to buy it but the stores i am going into (Its a place called the Fragrance shop, its in the UK, idk if its anywhere else) doesnt have super niche brands that manage to trick people into thinking they're luxury scents. If that makes sense.

Anyway, just kinda a rant, I picked up a few bottles today including chanel bleu and leather spice bomb, They smell great

What can i do about stiff brake pedal?

Hi, i am currently playing Forza Horizon 6 and loving it, I want to play using my G923 but the stiffness of the brakes makes it hard to play it instead of just using a controller.

Im disabled and pressing that hard on the pedal isnt something i can do as easily as others, causing me to crash into everything before i have slowed down enough to make the turn.

Can i like remap the brake to a button on my wheel or loosen it somehow?

How do i learn what fragrences smell like and understand what i personally like?

I have a small collection of fragrances, i like to smell good but i dont really understand what i smell like. I have tried watching videos on the topic but i see them smell a fragrence and then say crap like 'im getting notes of citrus and spiciness' and then they'll proceed to name the exact smells in the bottle like hes a computer.

I wanna be able to go into a store and atleast know what im looking for instead of just randomly smelling any aftershave that has a nice bottle.

Any advice?

you think the steam machine will include a controller

Just thinking about it but as far as i know, steam hasnt mentioned the controller coming with the steam machine. Do they expect us to plug in kbm to use the console?

A random Opening tier list

I just recently finished a rewatching the series and had the idea to rank all the openings because black clover does openings really well. I will be ranking them from worst to best and i have included pictures just so you know what opening im talking about.

WARNING: These are opinions and there is a very likely chance that your favourite opening is not number 1. Im just better than you.

Anyway, i got alot to type for a post thats gonna get -6 upvotes so ill begin.

  1. Rakugaki page - this opening is trash imo. the song isnt great and the animation doesnt even match the pace of the music, its made worse by the fact that its the opening for a generally mid arc. Bite me.

  2. PAINT it BLACK - This opening too is just not that great, it feels too slow and almost somber and although there are a good few heartfelt moments in this show, black clover aint that kinda anime, The artstyle is alright but not my cup of tea

  3. Gamushara - The only reason it is not in dead last is because that chorus is kinda catchy but again, it just doesnt fit the tone well. Ig it kinda does cos asta was a bit mopey then

  4. Sky and Blue - Same reasoning as the last ranking, most of this opening is lame as hell and i dont get why there is such a big focus on the past BUT the chorus is mega catchy, i cant help but sing along to it

  5. Stories - this one was ranked solely on how good it looks. The song is the definition of mid but the animation and lighting is beautiful

  6. JUSTadICE - i dont hate this one. I dont really have anything to say about it besides its alright

  7. Grandeur - The song itself is alright but i do quite like the animation along side it so it got bonus points. Im still not keen on the timeskip designs but theres like 15 episodes in this design so im just not used to it

  8. Everlasting Shine - I really like this one, the only reason it isnt higher is because the rest of them are just peak in my opinion, Its a unique opening for the show and yet it just works so well

  9. Black Rover - Ok, Please lower your pitchforks, This is still a great opening. Its not the best though and although its really catchy, it doesnt feel like black clover to me

  10. RIGHT NOW - This song is actually peak. the animation is dope as hell and the music is godly, i would rank it higher if i listened to it more often but the last 3 openings are in my playlists

  11. Black catcher - Again, lower the damn pitchforks. I really do love this one. The only grip i have with it is that it uses too little from the full song. Im only judging the openings instead of full songs because i dont wanna listen to them all

  12. Guess Whos Back - this song is peak. the guitar building up, the heavy metal, the almost screaming vocalist and damn those freeze frames are PEAK

  13. Haruka Mirai - The OG will never be topped. It has the perfect build up with the guitar and drums, the chorus is so damn catchy and the animation is whimsical almost and introduces you to the world in a charming way. Whenever this song plays when asta is beating some ass, i cannot help but drum along on my desk like a member of the foo fighters

I swear these bugs and errors must be intentional because no matter what i do, they dont stop breaking shit.

After swapping modpacks the other day, my game wasnt loading anymore and i spent a good hour trying to fix the problem.

I deleted my saves which did nothing

I then went through my entire mod folder and launched the game with each mod to find the problem which i thought fixed my issue.

Now however, the map doesnt work. Im on crystal hunt and there isnt a single thing on the map but there are 50 different tags on the bottom that do nothing and all the text is a random assortment of words.

To try and fix this issue, I deleted my saves again... which did nothing.

I then verified the integrity of my game files and although 1 file was apparently missing, this also did nothing.

So i did the nuclear option and completely reinstalled the game, which (say it with me now) DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

All the mods i am using are mods that i have been using for the past year, they have been updated and before i swapped modpacks, i had absolutely no issues with them so how in the hell is the game now fully unplayable for me, even after reinstalling it?

This game infuriates me. There isnt enough to do in the game once you have been playing for hundereds of hours so i resort to modding. However, modding this game is beyond awful. some mods need like 50 dependencies, updates break them constantly and you never know if a mod you have even works with your collection.

I have 2 mod folders i swap between. 1 mod folder is for the outer rim mod and another is for the firearm mod. They're both so big that i have to play wiht them separately or it takes like 10 minutes for my game to load.

As may 4th just came and went, I swapped to my star wars mod folder but eventualy got bored of it because the people who make that mod never actually add anything meaningful anymore. 30 minutes ago, i loaded up the game using the mod folder i am always playing on and the game wont load, I check the folder to see if any mods have been altered recently and found one so i deleted it, Surely the new mod addition was what caused the game not loading right?

Im sure you can already tell where this is going. Of course it didnt fix anything, I have been using this exact mod pack since 1.2 came out and i had no issues, I even slimmed out the folder as much as possible to avoid things breaking but nope, god decided that i wasnt allowed to play.

My only option is to start from scratch and make a new folder which is simply not gonna happen because adding the mods and testing them one by one would take atleast an hour, especially considering this game loves to take its time loading when you have more than a few mods enabled

I have an OLED MSI monitor and every time i use it, i am forced to sit there and wait until it 'repairs' the screen. I am all for extending the lifespan of my great monitor but this stupid system will only repair when i am using it.

Turning the monitor off at night doesnt change anything nor does the monitor ever need to repair when its not being used, its only when im in the middle of something that i am now forced to pause so the monitor can flash on and off for 10 mins

Godku is my favourite thing in dragon ball canon but the news section on the game is confusing me. The stages that go alongside the units release on the 7th but thats today.

So do they come out tomorrow?

I have been opening RC 5 boxes and pulled this beauty. Im not a fan of grading cards but i do wanna showcase this card in my room so i feel like having a grade along side it would be dope as hell.

I have heard too many horror stories about PSA though so im a little nervous about sending this card away to just any old grading company
