Yep, I felt the exact same when I first built my current rig and so I had to get my gf to use the same case for her rig, lol. Will likely stick with fractal design for cases for the foreseeable future

Yeah, Fractal Design R6, so it should have enough space for the shift. Since the case has that damn PSU cover which makes it only really viable to manage psu cables via the side panel, I figured the shift version might be pretty good
What I plan on getting is the Corsair RM850x Shift. 6950 xt requires a 850w PSU and I fancied the sideways oriented PSU as that makes things lot easier I my chassis. Might change it up (based on stock and prices) before I ultimately commit to the purchase
PSU is also on the list of components I'm upgrading. I think my current PSU is close to a decade old now. It's just one of those components that don't get a lot of love when upgrading over the years compared to the big spends like cpu and gpu
Had not considered that option! Thanks for the tip!
Bamboo viscose is a very soft and breathable textile. There are many types of viscose fabric and from what I have gathered the last few weeks the most eco-friendly and breathable seems to be bamboo viscose and lyocell viscose (usually made from eucalyptus).
There's a lot of uncertainty around the eco-friendliness of the production of bamboo viscose, but from I can gather it's a lot better than most cottons and a lot better than polyester (both for the environment and for our skin).
I could go on forever about the different fabrics, but to keep it short if you want soft and breathable underwear go for either bamboo viscose or lyocell viscose.

I had tried multiple times previously, but when I stopped using snus (tobacco in pouches you put under your lip) for good these are things that helped me succeed:
I actually wanted to quit (this is the most important one. If you just feel like you should quit and don't actually want to. It's gonna be really rough).
I set a deadline for myself. For me, that deadline was during a family vacation so I planned for myself to get through the last box of snus before the vacation was over. I had a single box of snus that was already opened and a week long vacation (a single box used to last me maybe 2 days normally). This made me ration it out so I had a natural decrease in amounts used before I quit.
I distracted myself from things that would normally make me want to grab a snus. Some were harder to avoid like when having morning coffee or when I had just eaten a large meal, but those could be substituted with chewing gum, breath mints, etc. I had also just recently started dating again at the time, so my daily routine was almost always different from the norm, which made ignoring the cravings a lot simpler.
And honestly, from there it was just staying true to my goal and making sure to be proud of every milestone. Even now, 5 years later, I made sure to be proud of being 5 years clean.
And you will think about it every now and then. Especially in situations where you normally go for a smoke, your brain will occasionally go back to "ahh, shit, a smoke would be nice now". I still have those moments when I have stressful situations, have been out drinking, or just randomly from time to time.
If you really want to quit, you can do it! I believe in you!
