This story starts 2 weeks ago, where my LG G3 has had lingering issues for quite some time with rebooting. This is a common issue that happens with this phone that usually involves replacing the phone and the battery (sometimes just the battery if you are lucky). I basically had enough and was done with my phone.
I have been with T-Mobile this time for well over a year now, with some setbacks on my end financially so I never qualified for $0 down on anything, so I couldn't afford to get a new phone as the cost was $250-$400 for the top models. I tried talking to a manager at customer service, but was told "you just have to wait 12 months". So I decided to go to the only person that could help me out: John Legere.
I wrote him an email outlining what I have gone through with my current phone, and told him I love my service, but hated my phone as it made my service unusable. I also let him know that emailed him on Twitter, and he acknowledged me and said he was looking forward to my email.
24 hours later, I received a call from the generic T-Mobile customer service line, and figured it was someone random. I picked up, and there was a familiar voice on the phone. It was John Legere! He told me that he thanked me for being a long time customer and former dealer, and said that his associate Oscar would call me shortly and fix everything for me. Sure enough Oscar called 2 minutes later, and made my account a top tier account.
I was able to go to the store and upgrade my phones, and there was even an accessory coupon for $100 on my account as well. I JUMPed into a Note 5 for myself and a S6 Edge+ for the wife. Both phones paid in full. I only paid the price difference for the headphones ($120 for the headphones and $100 coupon). I couldn't believe it. | Thank you for making my day, John! And thank you T-Mobile for putting me and my situation first! | [

Couple of years ago I went to a big music awards event - I worked as a salesman and was out entertaining clients which meant the company was footing the bill.
I'm not mature enough to handle a free bar, so I was fucked by about 8pm. I was semi-successfully reigning it in for the clients but inside my head I had my own theme music and narrator.
At one point one of the clients mentioned a rapper who was sitting close to us. She said she wanted to go ask for a picture but was too scared, so I saunter up to his table (I seem suave as fuck in my own head but I was strolling around like a cartoon character). One of his entourage (a fucking massive guy) steps in front of me and says "how you doing mate?" (politely telling me to fuck off in British). Unable to figure out if this guy wanted to talk to me or fight me I remembered I wasn't even trying to get to him, so I make a swift duck sideways to step around him. Except I don't , I drunkenly stumble forward, bouncing off his chest and falling back a couple of feet into a chair.
Now there's a few people watching and the guy has 2 other giants beside him. I haven't quite registered yet that this is not going well. so I get to my feet and walk up to the guys saying "excuse me, can I get through?". They ask me what I want and say a photo for my friend. They tell me no and are quite aggressive, so I fall back to my table shouting and swearing about big rappers being wanks that can't even speak to normal people. I see people around me are clapping and have smiles on their face so I feel like a badass man of the people. A moral victory for the little guy.
I wake up the next morning (in a park 50 yards from my front door without a wallet or phone) and replay what happened in my head. I remember the clapping as I walked away and am sceptical my memory is accurate. Then I remember music was playing... lights were illuminating that part of the crowd.
I'd been nagging the poor guy for a picture while he waited to find out he'd won an award. | Loudly pestered a big rapper at an awards ceremony for a photo/took offence when I couldn't speak to him. Realised the next morning he was waiting to find out if he'd won an award. | [

I joined a climbing gym last January and was what you’d call a novice climber. I had been with friends about 3 times in the few years prior joining, and I knew that I liked the sport. I knew how to top rope belay, and that was about it. Here is what I learned in one year.
1. Take your time. The only way to get better is to climb
I thought I was a good climber, or at least a decent one. The first day at the gym was a completely new experience, and a great way to throw it all into perspective. I first tried a 60 degree training wall and failed miserably, though I thought I could handle it. Then I sent a few 5.8s and a 5.9 or two, where I struggled. Climbing is a very unique sport, and it takes time to figure out things. Going in just trying to get as many routes is fun, but really focusing on form and taking each route slow and figuring out my moves was a huge help. Oh, and the best way to become a stronger climber? Climb more! I was asking all the workers at the gym for tips, all they had to say was keep climbing. One guy even said they had strength builders (Black Diamond Forearm Trainer) in the shop, but they really aren’t worth it. Hangboards can be your friend, but be cautious, seriously. Injuries are pretty easy to pile up with wrong technique on a hangboard. I’ve just started using a hangboard within the past 2 months every once in a while.
2. Take the beta! Take it!
At first, I brushed off a friends help thinking, “Yeah, whatever, you’re not up here.” Or even weirder I thought it wouldn’t count as a clean send for me getting help. I was wrong. Very wrong. The friends I climb with have years of experience over me, and so do other people at the gym. If someone is trying to assist you, its because they’ve been in that situation before. Climbing helps build technique, but I think that sometimes a voice to help along the way is a great way to learn and build on technique. If it wasn’t for those people yelling at me, I wouldn’t have learned about drop knees, underclings, or flagging. HUGE help. As The Beatles said, I get by with a little help from my friends.
3. Always push your limits, but stay solid.
Sure, you can climb a 5.10a, then a 5.10b, and even go all the way up to 5.11d if you want to rush it and hang dog, but it might not help you as much as you think. Only about 6 months in and I was able to send a 5.11d with enough time and just hang dogging it. I didn’t have the right form for it in all honesty. I was struggling on moves I should have felt solid on and should have changed my sequence. You can go and rush through grades and be satisfied, but I found myself struggling on a 5.10c. I noticed I was just rushing through the grades without learning good technique. Become an efficient climber. Climb all the 5.10a’s you can, then climb all the 10b, and so on. Focus on the form, the moves, the sequence. Familiarize yourself with a grade so you know what to expect.
4. Shoes. Oh my god. Shoes.
I rented for a while before I decided to dive in and get a pair of Evolv Shamans. I love those things so much. I still do. Before I bought them however, I almost got the Geshido, which I thought were pretty cool. I wear a size 11-11.5 street shoe and I had one guy tell me I should rock the Geshido in a size 9.5 or even 9. Another said 10.5 was pushing it for tightness. Then I finally got the Shamans in 11.5. Here is the thing I learned about shoes. Yes, they should be tight, but comfortable and bearable. And if you’re concerned, get a second opinion from a professional. 2 different people, 2 different days, told me 2 completely different things, and it really helped me to sit in there and try these on with their expert opinion. Go to a pro shop and get some advice, and ask around to see how they fit people at the gym. Oh, and I learned really quick about how to correct my footwork when I had to send my first pair off for resole after only about 2 months.
5. Trust your belayer, and always gear check.
It seems so simple, but its true. If you really trust your belayer, it makes climbing so much more fun and easy going. I’ve climbed with people where they just weren’t paying attention and it just made me want to not climb. It may take a while to really find someone you’re comfortable with, or to work with someone on how you like to be belayed, but it is worth it; lead climbing or top rope climbing. Also, Check your belay set up before you leave the ground, its so simple and it only takes 2 seconds. Look at your knot, make sure your harness is double backed, make sure your belayer’s harness is double backed, check the belay device to make sure it is set up right, and make sure the belayer’s locking carabiner is locked. Makes you feel all warm and cozy up on the wall. And if you’re outside, make sure you have at least 2 more quickdraws than you think you need, you never know, and always check your draws before you start your climb.
6. Go outside if you can!
My first trip outside was DWS, and it was incredible. Granted, I couldn’t send any route (5.10+ was the easiest), but I got to climb with some incredible climbers and just learn from watching them. If you are nervous to go out, just go watch people climb on real rock, you can learn a lot. Or maybe even give a hand and belay before you hit the rock for real, also a good experience. Outside is very different than any gym, give it a shot.
7. Have fun.
I know its cheesy, and of course it was going to be on the list, but seriously, it is what the sport is about. Push your limits all you want, its awesome. Climb what makes you feel good though. If you aren’t quite feeling like lead climbing and pushing your limits, take some time and top rope and enjoy yourself. I learned that I was just climbing because I wanted to be better than some people. I wasn’t really bettering myself. Once I took a step back and slowed down and started challenging myself instead of other people (though I do still enjoy a good challenge with friends), I found a lot more enjoyment in climbing. I was climbing more frequent and more routes because I was climbing a little below my limit, but I was having fun and really pushing my technique to be better.

"content": "I joined a climbing gym last January and was what you’d call a novice climber. I had been with friends about 3 times in the few years prior joining, and I knew that I liked the sport. I knew how to top rope belay, and that was about it. Here is what I learned in one year. \n 1. Take your time. The only way to get better is to climb \nI thought I was a good climber, or at least a decent one. The first day at the gym was a completely new experience, and a great way to throw it all into perspective. I first tried a 60 degree training wall and failed miserably, though I thought I could handle it. Then I sent a few 5.8s and a 5.9 or two, where I struggled. Climbing is a very unique sport, and it takes time to figure out things. Going in just trying to get as many routes is fun, but really focusing on form and taking each route slow and figuring out my moves was a huge help. Oh, and the best way to become a stronger climber? Climb more! I was asking all the workers at the gym for tips, all they had to say was keep climbing. One guy even said they had strength builders (Black Diamond Forearm Trainer) in the shop, but they really aren’t worth it. Hangboards can be your friend, but be cautious, seriously. Injuries are pretty easy to pile up with wrong technique on a hangboard. I’ve just started using a hangboard within the past 2 months every once in a while. \n 2. Take the beta! Take it! \nAt first, I brushed off a friends help thinking, “Yeah, whatever, you’re not up here.” Or even weirder I thought it wouldn’t count as a clean send for me getting help. I was wrong. Very wrong. The friends I climb with have years of experience over me, and so do other people at the gym. If someone is trying to assist you, its because they’ve been in that situation before. Climbing helps build technique, but I think that sometimes a voice to help along the way is a great way to learn and build on technique. If it wasn’t for those people yelling at me, I wouldn’t have learned about drop knees, underclings, or flagging. HUGE help. As The Beatles said, I get by with a little help from my friends. \n 3. Always push your limits, but stay solid. \nSure, you can climb a 5.10a, then a 5.10b, and even go all the way up to 5.11d if you want to rush it and hang dog, but it might not help you as much as you think. Only about 6 months in and I was able to send a 5.11d with enough time and just hang dogging it. I didn’t have the right form for it in all honesty. I was struggling on moves I should have felt solid on and should have changed my sequence. You can go and rush through grades and be satisfied, but I found myself struggling on a 5.10c. I noticed I was just rushing through the grades without learning good technique. Become an efficient climber. Climb all the 5.10a’s you can, then climb all the 10b, and so on. Focus on the form, the moves, the sequence. Familiarize yourself with a grade so you know what to expect. \n 4. Shoes. Oh my god. Shoes. \nI rented for a while before I decided to dive in and get a pair of Evolv Shamans. I love those things so much. I still do. Before I bought them however, I almost got the Geshido, which I thought were pretty cool. I wear a size 11-11.5 street shoe and I had one guy tell me I should rock the Geshido in a size 9.5 or even 9. Another said 10.5 was pushing it for tightness. Then I finally got the Shamans in 11.5. Here is the thing I learned about shoes. Yes, they should be tight, but comfortable and bearable. And if you’re concerned, get a second opinion from a professional. 2 different people, 2 different days, told me 2 completely different things, and it really helped me to sit in there and try these on with their expert opinion. Go to a pro shop and get some advice, and ask around to see how they fit people at the gym. Oh, and I learned really quick about how to correct my footwork when I had to send my first pair off for resole after only about 2 months. \n 5. Trust your belayer, and always gear check. \nIt seems so simple, but its true. If you really trust your belayer, it makes climbing so much more fun and easy going. I’ve climbed with people where they just weren’t paying attention and it just made me want to not climb. It may take a while to really find someone you’re comfortable with, or to work with someone on how you like to be belayed, but it is worth it; lead climbing or top rope climbing. Also, Check your belay set up before you leave the ground, its so simple and it only takes 2 seconds. Look at your knot, make sure your harness is double backed, make sure your belayer’s harness is double backed, check the belay device to make sure it is set up right, and make sure the belayer’s locking carabiner is locked. Makes you feel all warm and cozy up on the wall. And if you’re outside, make sure you have at least 2 more quickdraws than you think you need, you never know, and always check your draws before you start your climb. \n 6. Go outside if you can! \nMy first trip outside was DWS, and it was incredible. Granted, I couldn’t send any route (5.10+ was the easiest), but I got to climb with some incredible climbers and just learn from watching them. If you are nervous to go out, just go watch people climb on real rock, you can learn a lot. Or maybe even give a hand and belay before you hit the rock for real, also a good experience. Outside is very different than any gym, give it a shot. \n 7. Have fun. \nI know its cheesy, and of course it was going to be on the list, but seriously, it is what the sport is about. Push your limits all you want, its awesome. Climb what makes you feel good though. If you aren’t quite feeling like lead climbing and pushing your limits, take some time and top rope and enjoy yourself. I learned that I was just climbing because I wanted to be better than some people. I wasn’t really bettering myself. Once I took a step back and slowed down and started challenging myself instead of other people (though I do still enjoy a good challenge with friends), I found a lot more enjoyment in climbing. I was climbing more frequent and more routes because I was climbing a little below my limit, but I was having fun and really pushing my technique to be better. Once you can find enjoyment in the simple lines, the hard ones become even more fun. \n Enjoy yourself whether at the gym or outside. I’ve climbed now for a year and have learned a lot more than I was expecting. I’ve made some great friends and have pushed my own limits more than I could have really imagined.",

That's 200% right.
My comment was from a thought in my own head... I should have been much more specific.
Chomsky has no equal. Neither did Carl Sagan.
What I meant is Chris is Noam's successor in the right that he dares challenge power systems by going into what I like to call "full dissension".
You have people who like to tell small truths about the plights of power systems, but they like to do it in the context of having a solution that increases their own power. (Politicians, corporations, Glenn Beck, Tea Party, etc.)
You have those who are keenly aware of the multi structures of injustice, inequality, and power... those who are adept in it's form and origin. Yet, in light of their own self-preservation they consciously and unconsciously choose to tame their opinion and guard their own actions and thoughts against "rocking the boat". Careerists as Chris Hedges would say.
Then you have those who go "full dissent". Those who actively choose to speak and act against their own self-preservation interests. There are others... everywhere. In North Korea, Iran, England, Italy, Greece, and every country on earth. Here in the west, Chomsky is regarded, as the most prominent, justifiability by those that know. He and a few others go "full dissent" by telling the truth at all times no matter who it sheds light on.
Hedges will never wield a fact like Chomsky. He will also never be as objective the same way that Glenn Greenwald or Jeremy Scahill will never be non-partisan as Amy Goodman. However Greenwald follows Amy Goodman as much as Hedges follows Chomsky.
Your quote again, sums it all up:
>As much as I may appreciate some of Chris Hedge's writings, Chomsky is a kind of pinnacle of objective criticism. His encyclopedic memory of everything that has ever happened places him in a position to critically address most any political issue from a non-partisan, plain-truth vantage point. When people retort Chomsky, they often are put in their place by even more facts Chomsky's counter, as he is an endless source of facts and information. Hedges, though basing much of his opinions on similar facts, pours a lot of opinion and emotion into his writings that can be interpreted negatively by some. Chomsky avoids this because he states things just as they are without any editorializing, and his views are completely fact based and no-emotional. | Chomsky has just about as much of an equal as Nikola Tesla did. But Hedges does maintain his level of outspokenness and vocal dissension, something few and far beyond these days. | [

I wish you hadn't been downvoted. You're wrong, but the downvote arrow is not a disagree button, and this is a very popular misconception that needs to be explained to as many Americans as possible.
The misconception I'm referring to is the notion that the government is supposed to run at a profit. The government is not a business or a household. It does not exist in a capitalist sense to generate income for society. The government is the literal embodiment of society itself; we pay our tax money for those things which we agree all of society should be collectively responsible for. Then we elect and appoint and hire people to administer that stuff using the tax money we've all put in.
At face value, it still makes sense that those people should be working to break even within the constraints of the tax income they've pulled together. In fair weather, this is something to strive for, but in practice it's not practical. Here's why:
On anything but a fair-weather day, there is an economic or societal problem needing to be addressed through large-scale action. Whether this is transportation infrastructure to link the coasts, or disaster relief in a state that's just been hit by a bad storm, or a jobs crisis, society itself needs to react and the mechanism we use to do so is the government. So what do we do? We spend $500 billion on flood cleanup along the Mississippi. Now, what the hard right sees is $500 billion out the door with no income to offset it. What a practical person will consider is the non-monetary value that the project represents to society.
That's half a trillion dollars in exchange for 200,000 homes restored to a safe, sanitary, livable condition. It's three power plants brought back online, four freeways repaired and operational, and we can employ 13,000 for six months to two years just doing the work I just listed. All of those things combined are well worth the $500 billion we've just spent. Suddenly, hundreds of thousands of households that were relying on their homeowner's insurance to make it through the week are much closer to an even footing. Bringing those power plants back online took a huge load off the grid north of the damaged area; whereas power companies in the Midwest had been looking at a rate increase to enable them to keep funneling electricity into the flood zone, now the burden is back in the communities affected and their rates will stay the same. The government will even get a not-inconsiderable amount of this money back in the form of payroll tax paid by the construction workers, first responders, and so forth.
Businesses have to turn a profit in order to stay afloat and expand. The government isn't likely to fall on account of an imbalanced checkbook. If we were managing our country properly, we'd turn a surplus in good times, and pay down our debt, so that we can afford to keep running a deficit in hard times. This keeps the country working.
You can see this in action right now. Those European countries which opted for deficit spending are out of the recession. Those which opted for austerity are still suffering, and in some cases things have gotten worse.
It's been the case in America, as well. The New Deal pulled us out of the Depression. Reaganomics turned out to be a sham and increased the income gap in our country by a ridiculous proportion.
When it comes to it, the people feeding us this idea that the government should spend less money are the richest people in the country. They feel this way because it's gotten to the point where the rest of us aren't going to tolerate their low tax rates for much longer. In the 50s, their income relative to a plebe was immeasurably low compared with what it is today.
Simplified, each average American has a tenth of a cent to our name. There are five guys hanging onto a thousand dollars each, spending about $20 a month and never dropping below about a $975-980 balance. The rest of us will probably earn a grand total of $1-10 over our entire lives. This is not inherently unfair, but we've reached a point where those five guys (obviously it's not really five people, I'm trying to keep this easy to conceptualize) are paying the overwhelming majority of our tax burden because they have the overwhelming majority of the money in our country. From their perspective, they're already paying $200 a year in taxes, and I'm only paying two-hundredths of a cent. But look at it from the opposite perspective; millions of us can barely afford to pay two-hundredths of a cent per year, whereas if we made Bill Gates and Warren Buffet pay $300 instead of $200, they'd still have $700 to my tenth of a penny.
The end result of this is that:
Our society has progressed tremendously and is clamoring for the sorts of capitalism-friendly social programs found in parts of Europe and Canada, such as healthcare and education for every citizen, food for the poor, and so forth.
There is no way to implement programs like this without simultaneously raising taxes on the ultra-rich and cutting wasteful spending.
The military-industrial complex is a huge jobs and money machine, as detailed in the top comment you replied to. This makes it difficult to cut money from our military budget, even though we could reduce it by as much as 85% and still have the largest military budget in the world. We spend 4% of our GDP on the military, when a "sane" number in another country is 1% of GDP. This is up to 3% of our GDP which could be used to benefit the average citizen on a day-to-day basis, but isn't.
Because the ultra-rich are not cozy with the idea of raising their (already rather high) tax burden, their political party argues that the government shouldn't spend money it doesn't have. This is a red herring; as I've gone over already, that's what the government does when the national economy tanks. It's the smartest, most effective, longest-lasting solution. But as long as we're all arguing about whether the government should be spending money at all, we aren't arguing about where that money should come from. And if we aren't doing that, their tax burden doesn't change. So the GOP keeps trying to convince us not to spend any tax money on anything ever, while funneling a ridiculous proportion of our tax money into the construction of more military hardware, much of which is really overkill.
Now here's the kicker: the way they pitch it to us, it's a bad thing for the government to take money "out" of the economy. A more effective way to create jobs for the little guy is to keep that money in the private sector, where it will be used to fund business ventures and ultimately create jobs. The problem is that this doesn't work. We know it doesn't work. We tried it under Reagan and it tanked, horribly. The reason it doesn't work is that the ultra-rich aren't spending most of their money.
The only way to take money out of the economy is to have it and not to spend it. That is, if you earn $1000, and you only spend $20, you have taken $980 out of the economy. This is effectively what the extremely-rich are doing (not just in the US, globally). Well over half of the money in the US is controlled by less than 1% of the population, which is to say that less than 1% of us have as much money sitting in bank accounts as the other 99.x% of the country combined .
Which is the reason we need to be raising their tax burden: that money needs to be circulating . It has been removed from the economy and is doing nothing but accumulating interest. If we can tax it, the government can spend it, which will push us back toward a stable economy, and ultimately a surplus budget.
People seem to forget that the federal government ran a surplus under Clinton. GWB's administration undid this rather quickly after taking office in the form of, you guessed it, tax breaks. Taxes are not the big evil. That money is, I cannot stress this enough, not being removed from the economy ; on the contrary, the government is spending more than it earns so to say that it's not doing an efficient job of getting cash into the hands of citizens is absurd. The problem is with the amount of money coming in, not with the amount of money coming out. We should be able to spend what we spend and run enough of a surplus to pay down our debts, as we were slated to begin doing in the late '90s. But we refuse to bring our income up to a level which permits that, so that the deficit spending which is so necessary to pull us out of a dark place becomes the year-to-year norm.
So, yes. You create jobs by just hiring a bunch of people and paying them with government money we don't have yet . Then when the economy stabilizes we pay ourselves back with the surplus income that we refuse to generate.
But if you try to bring this up in a public forum, you'll be drowned out by cries of class warfare. This resonates with most average Americans, because we all like to think of ourselves as someone who will eventually live the American Dream. And when we get rich, we don't want to have to give half of it back to the government.
The bottom line is that you can't take ~52% of the resources that exist for yourself and 200 of your friends, and then whine when the rest of the world says it needs you to cut that figure down to ~30%. You still get to control a third of the money that exists and suddenly we can afford to do things like provide adequate healthcare and pensions to our veterans (to say nothing of medical care of the average person). | The problem is not that we're spending too much money. The problem is that we aren't earning much money, because there are a handful of people pathologically hoarding cash who seem to think it's ludicrous that they should ever have to live on "only" $175 million per year. | [

"content": "I wish you hadn't been downvoted. You're wrong, but the downvote arrow is not a disagree button, and this is a very popular misconception that needs to be explained to as many Americans as possible. \n The misconception I'm referring to is the notion that the government is supposed to run at a profit. The government is not a business or a household. It does not exist in a capitalist sense to generate income for society. The government is the literal embodiment of society itself; we pay our tax money for those things which we agree all of society should be collectively responsible for. Then we elect and appoint and hire people to administer that stuff using the tax money we've all put in. \n At face value, it still makes sense that those people should be working to break even within the constraints of the tax income they've pulled together. In fair weather, this is something to strive for, but in practice it's not practical. Here's why: \n On anything but a fair-weather day, there is an economic or societal problem needing to be addressed through large-scale action. Whether this is transportation infrastructure to link the coasts, or disaster relief in a state that's just been hit by a bad storm, or a jobs crisis, society itself needs to react and the mechanism we use to do so is the government. So what do we do? We spend $500 billion on flood cleanup along the Mississippi. Now, what the hard right sees is $500 billion out the door with no income to offset it. What a practical person will consider is the non-monetary value that the project represents to society. \n That's half a trillion dollars in exchange for 200,000 homes restored to a safe, sanitary, livable condition. It's three power plants brought back online, four freeways repaired and operational, and we can employ 13,000 for six months to two years just doing the work I just listed. All of those things combined are well worth the $500 billion we've just spent. Suddenly, hundreds of thousands of households that were relying on their homeowner's insurance to make it through the week are much closer to an even footing. Bringing those power plants back online took a huge load off the grid north of the damaged area; whereas power companies in the Midwest had been looking at a rate increase to enable them to keep funneling electricity into the flood zone, now the burden is back in the communities affected and their rates will stay the same. The government will even get a not-inconsiderable amount of this money back in the form of payroll tax paid by the construction workers, first responders, and so forth. \n Businesses have to turn a profit in order to stay afloat and expand. The government isn't likely to fall on account of an imbalanced checkbook.

Oh well, I thought 120 GB HDD would be enough for this game, but apparently I'm running out of disk space all the time. Right now I've got two gigabytes of space on my SSD so I bought a 320GB SSD which I'm planning to migrate or re-install my Windows and the game.
Some questions:
I) Is there going to be some weird copy protection (or anything else) problems after doing the migration, so should I just uninstall the game and migrate the files then re-install it?
II) If I have to re-install, is there an easy way to move the data files and/or the whole installation on another drive (I've got a spare 500GB HDD on the machine) or do I just have to re-install everything from start? Even if I have the DVD version, I'd really rather not download six gigs of updates as that's going to take two days again. | Fastest version to migrate Windows 7 and GTA5 from 120GB SSD to 320GB SSD without re-installing GTA5? | [

It's not about Bioware allowing you to mod the game. Bioware's franchises for the next line of projects, at least, are working on Frostbite. As far as I remember - experienced modders said modding Frostbite is (in lack of better words) hell. Dragon Age, which so far is much more mod-friendly than Mass Effect (and also made with a different engine), has been announced to "not likely have a toolset for community mods".
Skyrim might be a good example of a flexible game with a free toolset and a successful modding community (as are the previous Elder Scrolls games), but you need to consider that they haven't really changed the engine for more than a decade (?). Also from my experience with the series (which is extensive as I've played them since I was a kid) they also rely on the modding community (and in my opinion, far more than they should). Gamebryo is a flexible engine because they made it flexible.
In addition - I think it's not Bethesda's creation, anyways.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, it was in fact DICE that insisted not to release a public modding tool - more than likely because of Battlefield and the possibility of cheating.
However, there are always people like the person (whose name eludes me) who mod "unmoddable" games like Dark Souls to be functional (and for free) - so who knows. | It's not exactly up to Bioware to give us mod support, be it because the engine is too difficult to mod in the first place or because of an executive decision from DICE or EA. But there's always the "hope and pray" card. | [

Yes.
I bought a 7" Eee PC before netbook was even a word. I was so damn excited for that thing, a computer the size of a book! So I get it and it has a custom Xandros OS installed on it with an easy launcher etc. I'm not a programmer or even an Uber Geek but I'll be damned if I can use a computer without installing any programs, so I started to learn the magic of Terminal. I learned enough to be able to install my own applications and get Xandros to be more desktop-y but I still thought it was crippled.
So then I installed Ubuntu.
At first I thought Ubuntu was nothing short of a computing panacea created by God's personal IT guy. "It's an OS, and it's free! And doing things in Terminal is so fun, I'm learning". I quickly became disenchanted as nearly everything I wanted to do required 30-90m of reading Ubuntu forums for tutorials and tips. On my Mac (Boooooo! I know, get over it) when I want to figure out how to do something I just start trying. I click around, I check into some preferences, I fiddle with some options, and eventually probably do a 5 minute google search. That's the difference between Linux and Mac/Windows: unless you're super adept at Terminal-fu and up on tons of lingo, you can't figure things out yourself. On top of that, you have to be very careful because one misplaced "rm" or a wayward click can bring your OS to a screeching halt. Yes I know you'll say "but hatboysam! That's what makes Linux awesome because it's open and you have access to everything!". Well the bottom line is, I don't run servers and my computer came with OS X/Windows 7 anyway so I'll stick with it until I don't need to consult a self-proclaimed Uber Geek to solve any linux problem.
That said (and my Reddit comment length record already broken), I appreciate Linux as an idea. The fact that there is even a usable Open Source OS, let alone 100s of different versions, is amazing. If I were a developer looking for a sophisticated and customizable way to run a non-personal computing project, I would go with Linux. It's just not a viable competitor to the Big Two operating systems. | I used Ubuntu, it's not easy and it's not worth it for anyone but the ultimate computer person (but I give it credit for what it is). | [

So I get it and it has a custom Xandros OS installed on it with an easy launcher etc. I'm not a programmer or even an Uber Geek but I'll be damned if I can use a computer without installing any programs, so I started to learn the magic of Terminal.

I work as a programmer for the web. We are in the middle of developing a music site, users upload music to the site, the site converts the files to MP3s so they can be streamed back to other users.
I'm going to try and make this short, as I really want to finish this darn site, but I have to share.
I was on the phone with our client, and we are currently in the midle of debugging the site. They would start uploading their files, as I was on the phone with them. This is when this conversation takes place.
Client: Well, I just uploaded some files and one of them seems to have not converted properly.
Me: Utoh, well could you send me the file you were trying to convert, and I can take a look at it?
Client: I guess, I don't know what's with you guys, you always seem to think it's the file, I'm telling you, all these files come from the same place, they are straight from protools
Me: Ahh, mmhmm, well, try giving the file a new name and uploading it again?
Client: Nah, it still failed. Hang on, let me drag it out of itunes first.
Client: Ahh, there we go, it uploaded
Admittedly, a million things in this process could make it go wrong, but getting the file is step number one. | Client claims the moon doesn't exist. Moon exists.

I have been thinking this for a while so I need to get this off my chest.
I feel like I am the only one that just doesn't give 2 flying dick fucks about high scores. I loath them. I am relatively new to this subreddit so I am not sure if something like this has been discussed, however, it seems like it means A TON to people on here.
I guess the fundamental reason for my hatred to those who admire high scores so much has a much deeper genesis. As a university student, I am often surrounded by arrogance and one particular individual comes to mind.
This girl (who is in my program) will always advertise her marks to others and often ask them what they got just so she could tell them her mark (even when it is not requested). This ultimately resulted in students seeing her as the "smartest" student in the program (and to be fair, her marks were generally the highest).
The catch of this is that this girl is completely incompetent. She doesn't know how to use excel to any degree, will not take classes that require the student to put forth effort in developing their own research, etc. She can listen, write notes, and throw up that information on a mid-term/exam.
However, it seems like the students in my program don't realize this (or maybe they do and just not mention it). They will often come up to me and tell me what this girl got, as if I care. They see this girl and assume that if she did bad on this paper, they did way worse. A student would be happy that they received a 78% on a mid-term or paper only to be shot down by this girl (or a student talking about this girl) stating her mark was higher. When it comes to Runescape, it seems like the same phenomenon is occurring.
Before I continue, by no means am I saying high score players are meaningless, I am just providing my point of view.
Players achievements should be looked at, in my opinion, no less then those who have 200m xp in a skill or in the top 5 on high scores. They are their achievements which they worked hard for and for that, I respect it to the same degree as a maxed/high score player. I personally think that when so much admiration is put into someone who is top in the high scores, you subconsciously diminish your own achievements and think to yourself "well, its not as high as playerx".
You have no idea how that other player actually obtained such a rank.. did they do it legitimately?, did they bot?, did they have a friend play when they couldn't?, did they do it with spins? or the real life sacrifices made to achieve that rank.
If someone bought enough spins to get 200m xp in a skill, well good for them, at least their money went the jagex. If you have/or attempting to get 200m xp in a skill, be proud of yourself knowing that you achieved something that is very difficult and be proud of yourself that you did it legitimately (assuming you did). Even if getting 99 cooking was the most difficult achievement you have had in Runescape, don't let someone tell you otherwise (I picked cooking as it is believed to be the easiest 99 to get).
I feel like I could go on for hours talking about this, so I will stop here. I am curious to the responses from you guys and what you think. | Stop caring about high scores, they will only make you look down at your own achievements.
EDIT: After reading some comments, keep in mind that I am not ONLY talking about how a player flaunts their achievements but more so how other players do it form them (e.g. making a thread about how playerx is now in the top rankings making him better than -this- player). I am also not trying to talk down about someones achievements, as I stated in the OP. Thank you all for posting btw, it is rather interesting what people are saying. | [

I know it's a silly question and concept - that something that's relatively trivial (mod's please don't shoot me) in the context of the principles underlying NoFap would bear any influence on your 90 day achievement.
However, when I think about it, the rewards of NoFap are somewhat nebulous. Whether it's getting a girlfriend (or boyfriend), boost in confidence, elevated testosterone levels, freedom from our own depravity, these goals are not measurable or absolute by any means.
I've noticed that people try to motivate themselves with something tangible. For example, a recent post showed someone donating 10 dollars because he just relapsed. I think that's a great idea, and kudos for him being so generous, but I feel like that isn't as powerful of a motivator as it could be. After all, donating money as a punishment is only negative reinforcement, and on the flip side, donating money to charity makes you feel good inside and thus you're essentially rewarding yourself to relapse.
What if, and this is only an example, there were a hypothetical system, where after a 90 day achievement, you received something awesome? Like a 90-day fap free coin, T-shirt, or reddit gold for that matter. Of course this would require funds, so individuals in the community could vouch to keep a system like this afloat (i.e. I'll donate 10 bucks if I relapse).
note: I realize we have badges and day counters, but that too is transient and somewhat intangible. | I'm an asshole suggesting people not to donate money to charity. | [

I really like that quote: "If I had listened to my customers, they would've asked me for a better horse."
People will "get it" or see that it "works", but only in small lumps at a time (for example, I don't think that most people realize how much internet commerce has dis-empowered states, to the advantage of a more anarchic world order). Agorism produces voluntary solutions that people accept of because they see the benefits to them; but just in that one small area or facet of life. After seeing what Henry Ford did, the average person was never really changed in a wider sense; they were just as willfully blind to the next set of innovations that came along.
Most statists are going to stay statist and die that way; and while they are alive, blindly lash out at any solution which hints at being even slightly anti-state (observe the entrenched bitcoin hating crowd); even if they would have been tempted by it had they never associated it with freedom from their chains.
I'm not suggesting that it would be effective for libertarians/market anarchists to try to keep the anti-state effects of things like bitcoin on the down-low (although I think that the "sharing economy", things like uber and airbnb, have had a lot of success in large part because they are couched in a language where the masses of educated fools think that these movements are somehow anti-capitalist or something). . . .I'm just saying that these changes will have to come bit by bit, and it's going to take a long time still. Generations are going to have to come and go, with a steady stream of agoristic innovations building on old ones, and acclimating new generations to the rebranding ideas and products that failed to penetrate the old, thicker-headed generation.
The more people who can be intellectually convinced of the merits of decentralizing power down to the individual. . . the faster the counter-economy can establish. | I'm a weird kind of agorist who is equal parts liberty evangelist, and counter-economics advocate. That's just how I see it going down. | [

So I was getting ready to make a box of Kraft Mac and Cheese and totally forgot about the boiling noodles. They disintegrated, and I was foodless. Or so I thought! It had never occurred to me to use other random pasta that I had in the kitchen, but that's what I did! My protip to you all is this: use your postal scale (not drug scale, who has one of those??) to weigh out a comparable amount of your favorite noodles and use them in the mix instead! I found that a box of spiral Mac and Cheese had about 118 grams of noodle, so I used 118 grams of medium shells | use your scale to weigh out alternative pasta for mac and cheese! | [

People need to understand something about Miranda. It only applies to custodial interrogation. The law does not...I repeat DOES NOT....require that all arrested persons are read the Miranda admonition.
Two things must happen for Miranda to apply. The person must be IN CUSTODY, and they must be subject to INTERROGATION. If they are in custody but not being questioned, there is no need for Miranda. If they are being questioned but are doing so voluntarily (a suspect in a crime who comes to the station for a voluntary interview, not in custody) there is also no need for Miranda.
It's also important to note that if a suspect starts making spontaneous statements after being taken into custody, but not in response to anyone's questions, those statements are admissible because they are not the product of interrogation.
I realize what the controversy is here, of course, because Tsarnaev may not be read the Miranda admonition prior to custodial interrogation. I agree that this is an issue, but it is important to be clear on some things. | The law does not have a blanket policy that requires all arrested persons to be read the Miranda admonition. It is a bit more complicated than that. | [

I see this year as a throw-away year for my team (flames) if they do well than sweet! tangs and iggy are fun to watch. With all the NMC and NTC Feaster couldn't do much. I think this they will finish somewhere around 7-10th and next summer will be big because a lot of the bad contracts will be up and Feaster will have more freedom. | objectively hopeful | [

I went a whole (albeit uncomfortable, to say the least) 5 days without it after l just 1-2 doses daily, for just a week. Had fatigue, insomnia, the shits, no appetite, chills, but none too severe (I was able to go to work with some lope and Klonopin).
I thought this weekend, I could use a few times and downgrade back to chipping after the 5 day withdrawal. I was feeling fine by Friday, first dose didn't even feel like a rescue from sickness or anything. So, used Friday night (one redose), Saturday morning, Sunday night, and woke up Monday okay, but by evening could feel a mild withdrawal starting from just those four or five uses. So I take 2 kpin to sleep tonight around 12am, after tossing and turning in discomfort for about an hour, my last U4 dose now about 24 hrs behind me. Well 2mg of clonazepam only gets me about 3.5 hours of sleep, and now I'm up at 5am writing this, woken up by discomfort of the RLS kind. 2nd time a few days use of U4 has turned a solid cpam dose into a weak, short acting sedative (I normally use 1mg to knock out for 8 hrs easily after a normal day).
Anyway, just more info to add to the limited U4 info out there. Typing this waiting for the rescue dose I just drank to kick in and let me sleep. Looks like I'm in for another bad week, next time night limit down to just 2 uses over 2 days and see what kinda mess that leaves me in.
Ahhh, and there's that beautiful wave of warmth now, right on schedule. Bed is one again comfortable, I am once again sucked in and fucked, but at the moment... oh, sweet bliss. Nite all. | don't buy 10g of U4 at once, or you're gonna have an awesome, terrible time. | [

Had fatigue, insomnia, the shits, no appetite, chills, but none too severe (I was able to go to work with some lope and Klonopin). \n I thought this weekend, I could use a few times and downgrade back to chipping after the 5 day withdrawal. I was feeling fine by Friday, first dose didn't even feel like a rescue from sickness or anything. So, used Friday night (one redose), Saturday morning, Sunday night, and woke up Monday okay, but by evening could feel a mild withdrawal starting from just those four or five uses. So I take 2 kpin to sleep tonight around 12am, after tossing and turning in discomfort for about an hour, my last U4 dose now about 24 hrs behind me. Well 2mg of clonazepam only gets me about 3.5 hours of sleep, and now I'm up at 5am writing this, woken up by discomfort of the RLS kind. 2nd time a few days use of U4 has turned a solid cpam dose into a weak, short acting sedative (I normally use 1mg to knock out for 8 hrs easily after a normal day). \n Anyway, just more info to add to the limited U4 info out there. Typing this waiting for the rescue dose I just drank to kick in and let me sleep. Looks like I'm in for another bad week, next time night limit down to just 2 uses over 2 days and see what kinda mess that leaves me in. \n Ahhh, and there's that beautiful wave of warmth now, right on schedule. Bed is one again comfortable, I am once again sucked in and fucked, but at the moment... oh, sweet bliss. Nite all.",

My father and mother split when I was very small, and he cut out of our lives entirely when I was about 2 years old, so I have no real memories of him. I grew up with my mom, a ton of loving extended family, and eventually a very loving stepfather who took on the role of father for me and with whom I still have a good relationship to this day. No child support, no visits, nothing. I never met my bio-father or knew he existed as a young child, because he never made any attempt to be around, and honestly, I never really missed his presence because I had so many other loving family members.
Biological father, who is now a lawyer and never played a role in my life to support me, came back into my life when I was about 13. He liked to throw around money - he owned three Porsches and a Mercedes and enjoyed showing off all of the expensive things he owned. He bought me all sorts of expensive shoes and purses in high school, and wanted me to wear them all the time so he could take pictures and show everyone how he gave his daughter "the best of everything".
We had a distant but amiable relationship for a few years, but when I turned 18, he started telling me I was being greedy and had no right to be "gold-digging daughter", even though I had only asked him for help paying for a textbook (about $70) because I was moving to a new city on my own for school and wouldn't start my new job for 2 weeks - I didn't want to ask my mother, because she and my stepdad had just bought a new house and moved to a new place with my siblings and were still getting settled. Of course, I felt bad having to ask for help from someone else. It felt terrible . But I was 18, mostly on my own for the first time with very little savings, and I guess I thought that that someone who bought three Porsches and constantly took vacations to Hawaii might be able to spare $70 for maybe a month until I got my first paycheck.
He refused. He also took back the old car he had given to me when I was about 15. After that, we pretty much fell out of contact. I never asked him for anything again, and it was fine by me - I survived just fine.
My issue now is that a lot of his relatives are reaching out to me on Facebook, wanting to meet me, to visit me, to get to know me, and while they seem like very nice people, I guess it's just strange for me to connect with them, knowing that I have no relationship to speak of with my biological father. I don't want to ignore them or push them away if they want to know me, especially his parents, because I'm their only grandchild and they've never met me.
I guess I just feel really confused, trying to have a relationship with them even though I don't have one with my biological father. | Estranged father's relatives want to play a role in my life now, but he never did. Now, I'm not sure how to connect with them. What should I do? Any advice on how to best build that relationship helps. | [

I'd bet you're not as dull as you think - most people tune out stuff that they don't understand. When I'm describing something - an idea or a procedure - as simply as I can, often the listener just tunes me out & either changes the subject or else starts talking to someone else as if the previous talking hadn't happened. This is likely one of the following: they either realized I'm an idiot not worth listening to, or (more often) they realized they have no clue what I'm talking about, & they see it's because they haven't been paying attention or are too slow to understand what I'm saying. As that happens, humans tend to put up defense mechanisms so they don't feel stupid. This translates into what you are experiencing.

First, why we love Sanders:
Jimmy Dore puts this very well, and my remarks below, into context:
Here are Sanders Remarks:
...and some commentary with highlights:
First, notice he has not suspended his campaign. This is required theater, done per his party obligations and out of concern for the nation overall. Sanders must do this. Just know that.
>Let me begin by thanking the 13 million Americans who voted for me during the Democratic primaries. Let me also thank the people here in New Hampshire who gave us our first big win and a special thanks to the people of Vermont whose support for so many years has sustained me.
>Let me also thank the hundreds of thousands of volunteers in every state in our country who worked so hard on our campaign and the millions of our contributors who showed the world that we could run a successful national campaign based on small individual contributions – 2 1/2 million of them.
Here we see our recognized accomplishments! Truth is, given all the election BS, there is no way we can honestly say Clinton won, but the theater is gonna have to play out.
Here we have probably the most important thing:
>Together, we have begun a political revolution to transform America and that revolution continues. Together, we continue the fight to create a government which represents all of us, and not just the one percent – a government based on the principles of economic, social, racial and environmental justice.
We have to get past this, somehow, then employ Bernie style politics to win elections. A lot of elections. That is, and will remain, the big prize for the left. Remember, this has been true from day one of the Sanders campaign and movement.
Also notice, who has their agenda in this event, front and center? Who is taking their agenda to the platform and convention? You bet your ass Bernie is taking it to Philly. Until you hear, from Bernie, his campaign is over, it's NOT OVER.
Clinton is there, getting setup big. Sanders is basically defining her Presidency!
Remember when we talked about ideas? Bernie is all about getting those ideas into law. We have to get past this rough patch, and here Bernie is, upstaging Clinton, with those ideas. In Congress next year, he's going to be talking about those ideas. When we ramp up for the midterms, it's about those ideas.
Nobody gives a fuck about Clinton's ideas. Remember that. And Sanders didn't recognize them here.
Now, come those ideas, and why he is doing what he's doing:
>I have come here today not to talk about the past but to focus on the future. That future will be shaped more by what happens on November 8 in voting booths across our nation than by any other event in the world.
>And the profound lesson that I have learned from all of that is that this campaign is not really about Hillary Clinton, or Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders, or any other candidate who sought the presidency. This campaign is about the needs of the American people and addressing the very serious crises that we face. And there is no doubt in my mind that, as we head into November, Hillary Clinton is far and away the best candidate to do that.
(no, she's not, and Bernie knows it, but he is required to do this)
>It is no secret that Hillary Clinton and I disagree on a number of issues. That’s what this campaign has been about. That’s what democracy is about. But I am happy to tell you that at the Democratic Platform Committee which ended Sunday night in Orlando, there was a significant coming together between the two campaigns and we produced, by far, the most progressive platform in the history of the Democratic Party. Our job now is to see that platform implemented by a Democratic Senate, a Democratic House and a Hillary Clinton president – and I am going to do everything I can to make that happen.
To sum up, this endorsement is based on:
-she won more (and we just have to see where the election challenges go)
-she values diversity
-he has known her a long time
-reduce student debt
-etc...
Notice he's got all those framed and compared with his superior ideas. | He endorsed, cause he has to, because Trump, also SCOTUS.
ONWARD!
It's about the ideas people. We can go and get them. I'm just fine with this. Bernie has done me proud, and there remains a lot we can / should be doing.
NOT OVER. You bet, it's not over. We want those ideas to happen, and Bernie will remain laser focused on that outcome. | [

TBH: No. We are so incompatible that it bothers me everyday. We don't have a lot in common and our sex drives are completely opposite. We do have a child together, but she was born before we were married. If it was the other way around, my answer would be different because I couldn't imagine not having her around and in my life.
Also, I've found another woman online last year. She lives across the country and is married herself with children of her own. Her marriage isn't completely happy either (who's is really?). If I would have known she even existed 10 years ago, then I would have waited for her. We only communicate through emails and Facebook and of course my wife does not know about her.
I do love my wife. I always have and she has a very special place in my heart, but I really don't think we were meant to be together. We get along, sure, as much as two people who have been in each others lives for the past 15 years can. But I'm stuck with her, at least for the time being. And I also know that myself and the other woman will never be together either. Hell, we may never even meet in person. | No, because reasons. | [

Being a 1st gen American I hear a lot of pretty interesting shit..
Grandparents were actually in Louka, Czechoslovakia during WWII and immigrated to Venezuela while waiting for their American citizenship.
My grandfather told me a story about a time that him and his father were walking home to their tenement with groceries, on their way, a group of thieves tried to rob them. They're running their asses off and make it to an elevator and as the door is closing one of the crazies chasing them makes it into the door and reaches at my late great grandfather to take the bag. But my grandpa being the weapon toting czech he is, armed with a sling shot, puts a rock right in between the guys eyes and drops him. | Grandfather drops a robber with a slingshot in the Venezuelan slums | [

With the signing of Belesky and the acquisition of Hayes, as well as all of the other trades that have been happening over this past week, one must not forget the 4th line situation. Max Talbot provides great energy and skill to the fourth line while Zac Rinaldo also infuses the line with physical play. However, the question on my mind is who will be centering this line? Joonas Kemppainen or Chris Kelly?
For reference, Joonas Kemppainen was signed to the Bruins and previously played for Oulun Kärpät in the Finnish Liiga since 2010-2011. In 290 Career Games he has 46 Goals and 60 Assists for 106 points.
Chris Kelly has played in 334 games since the 2010-2011 season and has 53 Goals and 69 Assists for 122 points. | Who starts as the 4th line center? Chris Kelly (53-69-122 in 334 Games since 2010/11) or Joonas Kemppainen (46-60-106 in 290 Games since 2010/11)? Both are great at faceoffs and are defensively minded. I would prefer Kemppainen over Kelly since, in my mind, he can infuse skill and speed on that line better than Kelly.
Any thoughts? | [

No.
I have fast forwarded to every instanse with spock in the movie since I recon its with him the details would come, since it's only Spock and Kirk who knows about the time travelling until Spock meets himself.
After the vulcan incident, there's one conversation between Spock Prime and Kirk where Kirk says: "Going back in time you changed all our lives". This is said in the ice cave.
Before they transport to the Enterprise while it's in warp speed they also chat. Kirk says "coming back in time changing history, it's cheating." Spock responds that he learned that trick from an old friend - clearly referencing Kirk.
They never mention anything about alternate universe. They never mention anything negative about trying to do something in the present that will "fix" the future.
We don't see spock again until Spock meets himself and they discuss their roles in the vulcan society and how Spock Prime lied to Kirk by letting him draw his own, wrong conclusion.
In order to use the red matter they would have to use it before it detonates Neros ship in the end.
They would also be able to use 129 years to evacuate the romulus planet before the star goes supernova, but this is not discussed in the movie. | Not a word was said in regards to change the future, or why it wouldn't work.
If you still believe it was so, you have to reference me a specific place where this takes place - preferably also with a time stamp. Otherwise I will believe you to have lost this argument. | [

Okay, so this is going to get a little long but I am honestly at the end of my rope and I have no idea what to do.
So last June, I moved in with: a [22F] who we will call Sarah, a [22M] we will call Dan, and a [22M] who we will call Mark. I have previously lived with Sarah for 3 years and needed to lower my living expenses which is why we decided to move in with Dan and Mark. I have known Dan for 8 years and I have known Mark for 2 years. Dan and Mark were a couple for a little over a year when we moved in. The first 4 months living together was smooth. A few cleaning disputes here and there but nothing out of the ordinary. Then the breakup happened. Dan broke up with Mark due to inconsolable differences that had been destroying their relationship for a long time. Initially the break up was very friendly. I think on some level they both realized they weren't meant to be together even if the reasons weren't 100% clear initially. Fast forward about a month or so later. Dan decides he is ready to start dating again which deeply hurts Mark. About two weeks later, Dan begins to regularly see another guy. As you can imagine, Mark felt very betrayed.
At this point, the whole household realized that boundaries needed to be created. Mark stated he had no issues with Dan's new partner coming over to the house as long as he didn't spend the night (Mark and Dan still share the same master but neither can afford to move out). Everyone agreed that was reasonable and the atmosphere in the house finally shifted to a much friendlier environment.
However, this did not last long as Mark quickly grew obsessive with his ex partners life to the point of stealing his phone and reading all of his ex partners messages to figure out what Dan's new partner was like. This action is only the tip of the iceberg and I wanted to give you context of the level of his obsession without going into too much detail.
Sarah and myself have both urged Mark to seek counseling because of his unhealthy obsession. Despite our suggestions, Mark has not sought counseling. Due to Mark's obsessive actions, Dan does not wish to speak to Mark anymore leaving Sarah and myself totally lost on what to do. The house is constantly filled with screaming matches and passive aggressive actions that are driving Sarah and myself crazy.
So here's my question: How can I make this situation livable or am I just doomed to live like this for the next 4 months? | Lived with two gay men who were in a relationship with each other but broke up with one another about four months into our lease. My living situation is now terrible as Mark has become unhealthily obsessed with his ex partner Dan and Dan wants nothing to do with his ex partner Mark. This has created so much drama and tension that I can't take it anymore. Is there anyway I can make this situation livable for the next 4 months? | [

Short one here. My boyfriend is genderfluid. Not usually a problem, up until about 12 hours ago. He was 'girling' as we call it, and things got a bit sexy because we'd not seen each other in 10 days. Afterwards, he's a bit tearful. We have a serious talk about him telling me how his mental health is going and not lying about it, because I can't help him through things I don't know aren't there. He's done this before which lead him to a breakdown, so I made it clear that if he lied about it again to make me 'happy'. I'd be out the door. He got visibly tearful and so obviously cares about the relationship.
Later in the evening, at bedtime, about ten minutes into cuddling, he rolled over and explained that he had felt an emotional cutoff from me. After some discussion, we identified that because we'd had sex in a very regular manner, he felt a massive case of gender dysphoria, feeling like a girl but having sex using his penis. He said it'd got slowly worse after that.
Further discussion, he still loves me, but is scared that because he's never worked through an emotional cut off from a partner before (abusive relaitonships, immature women etc) that he can't do it. I've said that as long as we love each other and are both making an active effort to hold onto what we've identified as a very healthy, loving and supportive relationship up until now. He agreed to work with our university mental health team and take medication on the advice of some other internet sources, to manage his mood changes and work out his issues better. He clearly wants this to work, but it's incredibly hard. He says that interacting with me is like interacting with a stranger. It's either repulsive or he's indifferent, and during a little breakdown I had about it all this morning, he did make an effort to hold me and console me, which again, I think does show willing. The hard part is that he doesn't know why his brain is conflicting. He's only recently diagnosed with bipolar. He explains it that it's like a wall went up in his brain.
He's now asleep, after not sleeping all night, and I'm here just breaking my brain as to what to do.
I think I am just wanting some insight from people who've been through this emotional cut off, and come out the other side. What did you do? What worked and what didn't? | Boyfriend has issues, we're working past them but are both terrified. | [

There is a huge con, and I hope people read this and understand this. If more people had an understanding of what the US debt means to the world economy, we wouldn't even be having this discussion (over and over again).
US debt, and the bonds that cover it, are the most secure investment in all the world. It's the bank for banks. If someone has a billion dollars in cash, and they want to make sure next year they still have a billion dollars, they buy US treasuries.
Here is an article that lays it all out:
Basically, if the US didn't have debt, people around the world wouldn't have a safe place to keep money. Too much debt is bad, but not as no debt. So how much is too much? If you look at this as France, Germany, the UK, and Canada. | There is literally no good economic reason to try and pay down the national debt right now. | [

For me it's less about what I believe or don't believe, more what I choose to practice and how I fit into this world. There seem to be so many "mishaps," and perceptions that ostracize others from a faith that they probably want to keep. The willingness to brand someone a "sinner," or "un-Christian," and the mentality surrounding that separation is just inhumane at times even for the smallest infractions.
I choose to be non-religious for my own personal reasons and that's where my interests stop. The next generation of people are free to do and believe as they wish. | Too much insane focus on the "practice," of being religious vs keeping our moral compasses in check. | [

This is my understanding of cryptos.
When a transaction takes place the sender creates a hash ( a 1 way, repeatable, impossible to reverse, re-engineering of the original code) of a random string and signs this hash to the transaction. Once the transaction is on the network computers try to figure out what this original string is. The only way to do this is to brute force as many different combinations of strings to there equivalent hashes until then end result is the same as what was put on the origonal transaction. If you find the original string for the transaction before its was hashed, this is what is called finding a "block".
Once a machine finds a block they put there result onto the network and other machines try using the string you found and compare its hash what was on the original transaction. Once enough machines confirm that what you found is the correct original string you earn doge and the transaction is processed. | A hash is a single attempt to find the original string that was generated when signing a transaction. More attempts = more chance of finding the correct string. | [

it's been 39 days since nofap, and almost every 10 days i have a wet dream. i read here that most of the people dont have wet dreams till the day 60, im almost 40 days fap free and had 4 wet dreams already.
i feel that instead of having that energy stored in my body, it's being wasted with wet dreams (which is pretty similar to masturbation)
what are the reasons or consequences of this frequency of wet dreams????? | 39 days, 4 wet dreams, what are the consequences?????? | [

I can't help but feel like this. For example, I have a close friend who is currently finishing his degree and doing an internship at a small place, and I'm afraid he's going to get invited to stay there permanently when he finishes it.
I can't help but feel pissed off inside anytime he mentions internship in quotation marks (indicating he's doing well there and is a possible future employee), or how he's been working on this or that project. I should feel happy for him, and yet, I can't.
I know we are pretty close skill wise, because when we were both on the same programming class we got very similar grades (hell, I even very slightly beat him). We both like programming, but he tends more towards the design and art side, while I prefer the more "mechanical" side of things.
I love helping people out with technical stuff when I can, him included, but I can't understand why his, and other friend's lives, mess so much with my head and make me slightly angry. Sometimes I even wish to see him fail. What the hell is wrong with me?
I also am afraid to lose him as a friend, in this specific case. I feel that at some point he might get too obsessed with work, and make no time for me or anyone else. For now I think everything's okay enough, but I've already lost a good friend thanks to that kind of behaviour. | I get angry and depressed whenever others surpass me. What the hell is wrong with me? | [

For example, I have a close friend who is currently finishing his degree and doing an internship at a small place, and I'm afraid he's going to get invited to stay there permanently when he finishes it. \n I can't help but feel pissed off inside anytime he mentions internship in quotation marks (indicating he's doing well there and is a possible future employee), or how he's been working on this or that project. I should feel happy for him, and yet, I can't. \n I know we are pretty close skill wise, because when we were both on the same programming class we got very similar grades (hell, I even very slightly beat him). We both like programming, but he tends more towards the design and art side, while I prefer the more \"mechanical\" side of things. \n I love helping people out with technical stuff when I can, him included, but I can't understand why his, and other friend's lives, mess so much with my head and make me slightly angry. Sometimes I even wish to see him fail. What the hell is wrong with me? \n I also am afraid to lose him as a friend, in this specific case. I feel that at some point he might get too obsessed with work, and make no time for me or anyone else. For now I think everything's okay enough, but I've already lost a good friend thanks to that kind of behaviour.",

My ex and I dated for a little over two years and broke up because he’s unambitious and I was less attracted to him because of it. I felt like he was holding me back socially, academically, and athletically. We broke up on bad terms. He clung and cried and tried to convince me to come back, but I was and am very much done. Every so often he drunk dials me from a bar and asks me to pick him up (he threatens to drive drunk if not) and in the past, I’ve done it, but no more. If he wants to get a DUI, he’s not my problem anymore.
Anyway, over the course of our relationship, he and my roommate became pretty good friends. I don’t think there’s anything romantic between them – my roommate has been dating around and has recently settled on a nice guy who lives in the same apartment complex as us, and they’ve been spending a lot of time at his place. My roommate invited my ex and a few other friends to stay the night at the apartment this week after going to bars/ clubs/ downtown. I’m not okay with this. I have no issue seeing my ex or interacting with him, but when he gets drunk he gets clingy and starts crying and it just annoys me. He sits outside my room and begs me to talk to him, and I’m just plain not interested. At first, I thought that after two years I “owed” him conversation, but it quickly got old after he started doing it on a weekly basis. Because of this, I’ve talked to my roommate and asked her for heads ups when my ex will be over, but she hasn’t really complied.
Additionally, I came home blackout drunk a week after we broke up and he was home and attempted to have sex with me. He knew I was blackout. My friend, who DD’d that night, tucked me into bed and explicitly told him to leave me alone. I’m not sure what happened, but I woke up with a text from him apologizing for his actions. I would rather not know.
I moved on really quickly from our relationship, and had a FWB within a couple weeks. It's progressed, and there are feelings involved on both sides. He knows the situation with my ex and is extremely uncomfortable with him staying the night at my apartment, even on the couch. New guy has been over a lot lately. My roommate has been staying at her new boyfriend’s 24/7 so this hasn’t been an issue, and she hasn’t spoken to me about it. He is only over at night, generally from 12-6am. | Broke up with ex, started seeing new guy. Everything is dandy. Ex and roommate are friends, had a sketchy night with ex. Don’t want to see ex. Roommate asks ex to spend the night, new guy and I are uncomfortable.
I guess my question is, do I have any grounds to approach my roommate and tell her that I don’t want my ex spending the night at my apartment? Can I ban him from my apartment (at least while he’s drunk)? Should I suck it up and stay the night at new guy’s place?
Should I not bring guys around when my ex is over? I get that it’s cruel and I shouldn’t try to hurt him… but this is my home, not his, and it’s incredibly irking that I have to change my habits or take his feelings into account.
As a side note, my ex gets very physical when drunk. I want to avoid conflict. I don’t want to risk anyone getting hurt, or anyone starting a fight. I feel like shouldn’t have to worry about these things in my own apartment.
I understand that I may come off cold hearted, but we've been broken up for six months. I'm tired of him being clingy and not letting the relationship go. | [

Saw this at the store this week. Commented to my boyfriend that there is now bacon-flavored fatty ranch. Why is that a thing? A random girl walking by said, "Because it's awesome! Bacon anything is awesome!" I laughed and told her she was right. She followed with, "And I'm Jewish, so I've never even tasted bacon and I know it's good." | Even people who don't eat bacon love bacon ranch! | [

Hi. I'm looking for a new home for my [Enhancement Shaman]( I'm 2/7 currently in FL and I'm looking to continue progressing.
Ideally I'm looking for a guild that raids 2-3 nights a week (friday and saturday nights i usually go outside and try to be social, but tues/weds/thurs and/or sun/mon are ideal) from 7/8pm to 12 EST. I'm always down to clear normal BoT/BWD or Heroic since there are still some good bis in there. Also, I always try to cap out on valor so guild heroic groups are a must.
I'm social and have a good sense of humor and I'm very active. I'm online most nights from 5pm til midnight depending on the girlfriends plans for me. I always come prepared to raids with flasks and food buffs (max alch and cooking). I'm a big achievement whore (about 150 points away from 12k) so I'm hoping to find a likeminded guild. Who doesn't like achievements?
My offspec is elemental, but I rarely bother now since the dps is so much lower then enhancement. I don't have a resto set because healing just isn't my thing which I know can be a dealbreaker for most shaman looking for guilds but I just don't enjoy it.
My current server Scilla is dieing. Most of the top guilds have been transfering off and it's made the server feel like a ghost town. I'd like to stay horde, but if the right alliance guild approached me I would consider it.
Since I will be paying to transfer I am looking for a raid spot in 10 or 25. If I sign up and say I will be there I will show and if something comes up I always make sure the raid leader knows well in advance that I won't be able to make it. | Enh shaman looking for a raid spot in your guild, contact me today! | [

A buddy and I found that we could enter the locked storage room behind the auditorium stage in high school using a laminated card. We would hang out there when we cut class, but could not sneak out to use the restroom while classes were in session. On a whim, I urinated in (an unplugged) popcorn machine that was stored there and brought out for school functions/sporting events. This became our regular urinal and also continued to be used to make popcorn for faculty and students alike. I'm not sure how no one noticed, except that maybe it would dry out/evaporate between our use and theirs. | My friend and I regularly urinated into a popcorn machine that was actively used by our high school. | [

It would cause rampant inflation in food courts and restaurants at first, but it would help raise standards of living among the very poor.
But wouldn't this be a big problem? Implement minimum wage -> hawkers / supermarkets "forced" to hike food prices -> people taking minimum wage are back to square one.
I suspect having a minimum wage will also affect the construction industry, and any number of other industries where you have lower paid hourly workers.
I'm not trying to say that we should not having a minimum wage. I do think it will help, so long as due care and consideration is had to fixing a fair sum in the first place. What I am saying is that the situation is so much more complex and just creating a minimum wage law is not likely to "fix" it. On top of that having a minimum wage is likely to give rise to unforeseen second and third order consequences that we don't want either. Further, I am not certain that our economy is suitably sized to support effective minimum wage laws. It's not like CSJ seems to suggest, i.e. corporations shafting everyone, having minimum wage will shaft corporations back, let poor survive, pay for healthcare, and reduce crime, all in one fell swoop.
A possible alternative is some sort of welfare system that is contingent on you working. So if you work (or if you have a disability and can't work), and you can't quite make your ends meet, the government "tops up" your income to a certain minimum standard. The fund would come out of tax revenue. Hell, you could even make it such that the very destitute don't pay taxes, the government pays them . IIRC there was a study done recently that said a typical family of 4 in a HDB needed a minimum income of S$1,700 or so. I feel like my taxes should be able to contribute to that. Of course, there is a question of overhead to implement this program, etc., etc.... I guess the point is, it's not so simple.
As for healthcare, we already have means testing in government hospitals, wherein the government subsidises you less and less as your income goes higher. I didn't know until I got hospitalised, and I thought it was quite a fair thing to have. Maybe tweak this so the destitute can get healthcare too? But we already have overcrowding in our hospitals... | I'm not saying "don't implement", I'm saying "not so simple". | [

The men in my family have this strange habit of telling tall tales to those in the younger generation, and as a result, I had to take quite a bit of my grandfather's advice with a grain of salt. For example, he once told me that I should eat all of my asparagus, because it would make my hair curly. (The fact that a third of my dinner went untouched afterward is probably pretty indicative of how I felt about that.) Similarly, my father once told me that sunscreen would help me grow a beard before I hit puberty, and I wound up with a sunburn on my face... save for where a goatee would have grown.
Perhaps the best advice that I received from my grandfather was of a more indirect variety.
Every time that my family would go skiing (which was fairly frequently), one of the adults would pack me a lunch, as well as a few snacks to sustain me throughout the day. One of the included items would often be a candy bar... and on this particular occasion, I noticed that my father had packed two of them.
"Now Max," he said to me, "don’t eat these at once. Save one of them." Being eight years old at the time, I couldn’t see any reason to follow such an absurd suggestion, so I called him on it.
"Why should I save one?" I asked. My dad didn’t pause in his activities, but he did look up at me with a sparkle in his eyes. Later in life, I would learn to recognize that look as the "tall tale gaze," but at the time I just saw it as attention. I sat as still as I could, since I was certain that an amazing story about my father’s past was soon coming.
"When I was your age," my dad told me, "I was about to go out on my own for the first time, and my father – your grandfather – packed me two candy bars. He told me to save one of them... but he didn't tell me why." He finished making my sandwich and looked up at me with a grin. "Well, I ate one of them right away. I wasn’t even on the slopes yet, but it was right after breakfast, so I was too full to eat the other one. I actually forgot about it when I started skiing." The sandwich went into a plastic bag, which he then placed on the table next to the rest of my food for the day. His task finished, my dad pulled up a chair next to me, and resumed telling his story.
"It was kind of cloudy that day, and before long, snow was falling so thick that I couldn’t see where I was going. I got lost, and a little bit scared, until I heard someone coming towards me."
"Who was it?" I asked.
"The abominable snowman! " My father yelled the name, making me jump. He was always very animated, and this time it seemed like I could almost see the monster towering in front of me. As my dad continued, I started to feel like it was me out there in that snow-swept forest. "He roared out loud and started coming towards me," my dad continued, pantomiming the scene. "I backed up into a tree, but he came closer and closer. That’s what I suddenly remembered my candy bar!" He grabbed one of the sweets off of the table and motioned with it. "I pulled it out of my pocket and tore the wrapper off, and then I showed it to the abominable snowman and yelled 'Here! Share!'" He duplicated the motion, thrusting the candy bar towards me. I was absolutely riveted.
"What happened?" I asked. My eyes were wide with excitement... and the grin on my dad’s face even wider.
"Well," he said, sitting back in his chair, "he looked down at me and asked 'Share?' I broke the candy bar in half, said 'Yes! Share!' and I gave him a piece. He sniffed at it, and then he put the whole thing in his mouth and smiled. After that, the abominable snowman and I were friends, and he helped me find my way out of the forest. We're still friends to this day, and every time I go to see him," he tossed the candy bar at me, "I always bring a second one along."
That was a good enough explanation for me, and it definitely made my first day of independent skiing a lot more interesting than it might have been. I spent the whole time looking into the forest, hoping to catch a glimpse of the monster that my father had befriended. Once or twice, I thought I saw movement in the trees, but it was always gone before I could get a good look at it. Eventually, I grew out of my fascination, and skiing became little more than an activity that I did with my friends and family (rather than a hunt for the abominable snowman).
Even so... I always carry an extra candy bar. | The men in my family always carry an extra candy bar. | [

I'm the lurker who's read almost every post on this reddit, and frequently checks the top: all time page for new reads. I thought it was time I contributed something. What made resulted in the most improvement for my play/ranked progression was introducing a schedule. It's simple and is as follows:
1 week of League play/streams/reading
1 week nothing (absolutely nothing) league related. For those of you who are thinking about champion/skin sales, I made a list of the champs/skins I wanted and gave it to a league friend who would tell me if they went on sale. Then only then would I break my schedule and buy it.
After a couple rotations of this system I began to notice drastic changes in my play. More specifically, the huge amount of mistakes I was making. The thing is, with all the constant information on league we consume through the games we play, the streams we watch, the articles we read, everything is blurred together and intangible. This causes good plays/mistakes to blend together, resulting in only the obvious blunders being recognized. With a week break, coming back to the game and playing would be a horrific experience. What were seemingly acceptable plays to me normally were clearly illuminated as horrible blunders.
But this was okay for a number of reasons.
It showed me I sucked. I was not as good as I thought and I didn't deserve to be silver.
Okay so maybe only one reason.
Once the mistakes were noticed, I work to correct them. Soon my winrate was skyrocketing, and I was out of silver sooner than I thought possible. I'm still climbing through the preseason, and I'm hoping for a good seed in S5. But if I get in bronze again I will get out easily because I know it's possible, and what I need to do to climb.
I know this method may not be for everyone, but it has truly changed my league experience. The main reasons are:
It keeps the game fresh. After a week of absolutely no league, I come back to the game with the same excitement I had when I first started playing, Garen ulting bots cause yolo. Before, league had turned into a social grindfest for me. It really wasn't as fun anymore. The breaks changed everything though.
In tied with point #2, it eliminated my rage/toxicity completely. When you're having fun and enjoying the game, it's really hard to care what other people are doing and screwing up on. And to tie back to an earlier point, when your own mistakes become glaring to yourself, it's difficult to try to bash someone else before fixing your own problems.
Now you're probably saying Buff_Napper, I never rage at my teammates, I am a good boy. Okay maybe you don't type your rage, but I guarantee that for members of the community with high levels of self control, there is plenty of times where if that power was lacking, those fingers would be smacking those keys so hard.
In conclusion, I encourage everyone struggling to climb to try this. If you're like me and can't find any more good YouTube league advice videos to watch, and there's not much basic head knowledge you can find anymore, this might be for you.
Best of Luck,
Buff_Napper | Taking regular breaks for league of legends/related content is the change that enabled me to fix my play and climb many ranks. | [

So every now and then someone makes a post as to how toxic the PCMR community can be when basically calling out peasants and saying thats all we do basically. wtf? I just don't understand completely the thought process of this.
Sure our front page with all the "hot" posts contains a lot of console bashing and satirical posts, but its just a small fraction. These posts that only get not much more than 3k upvotes are somehow considered to be the face of PCMR when theres 440k members as of now. How does that make sense? We make posts of how idiotic console owners can sound, but most of us don't go so far as to call out many of these ridiculous comments that we see screenshotted. The people that do in an aggressive way (as in straight up calling console owner peasant, and not informing) shouldn't be what the face of PCMR is often misinterpreted as.
Just to be clear, its one thing to try and inform a console owner of why PC gaming actually is superior, than it is to straight up call them a peasant after the console owner fails to see that facts and boasts all these false facts about console being superior.
And just to be clear on that, that basically is what a peasant is, rather than being uninformed, but we shouldn't be starting flame wars in comment section on youtube just cuz. Its just as cancerous as some of the false facts peasants spew out.
If you click on the "new" tab of this subreddit, you'll see it is often filled with posts requesting help, giving away unwanted games, and the occasional rig showoff. Theres tons of people asking for help, and just as many if not more willing to help. Questions from tech support to build help, and even whether a possible purchase is a good choice or not. Giveaways happen often, even if not many people are on the lucky end, its certainly better than just letting it sit in the library being unplayed. As for the rig showoffs, I can see how some people view it kind of as obnoxious when a bunch of people post boxes or rigs and thats what they see a lot of, but this is a PC community. Everyone here loves PC gaming and I can see why someone would want to share their special moment of discovering or enhancing their new hobby/experience. | My point is, the hot tab in this subreddit isn't what should be considered the face of PCMR; neither should the flame wars we instigate in comment sections. What should be considered more often is how helpful the subreddit is when it comes to helping people.
I want to leave this flaired as a PSA, even though it can be viewed opinionated, but I just hope majority of people who see this understand what I'm saying.

Well, not a theory so much as an educated guess based on past experience. As we've seen in the last two games (and watch_dogs too, come to think of it), Ubi has become quite enamored with using short DLC single-player experiences to tell other stories that might not otherwise fit into the narrative cleanly. We've seen this with the King Washington DLC for AC3 and Freedom Cry for 4, not to mention the Aveline mission.
Now think about Connor. Popular enough that folks have been clamoring for a new story with him, but unpopular enough that he probably won't again star in his own game. Seems ripe pickings for this sort of storytelling. Furthermore the timing's about right for both games, whether as Master Assassin Connor helping out with another revolution in Unity, or in an epilogue to Rogue, where Shay finally gets what's coming to him. And that's only within the framework of the existing narratives; there could just as easily be a stand-alone episode that doesn't take the main game into account at all.

Hi Reddit,
I am moving to Miami this upcoming week and am in town looking at apartments. I am a 25 year old male, and will be working downtown at the very bottom of Biscayne above the river. I am looking at a few buildings (prices have shot up lately...) on Biscayne Blvd. and also in Brickell. What do you guys recommend? The building I like the best is by the American Airlines Arena (Marina Blue) but I worry that there is not much to do in that area. Would it be worth it to live in a lesser building just to be in Brickell? For reference, I am looking at Brickell on the River near Mary Brickell Village, but I am not wild about getting a loft (the lack of a private bedroom freaks me out, even though I'll be by myself; also, I have cats and it'd be nice to kick them out of my room once in awhile).
What are your thoughts on each neighborhood or where I should end up?
THANKS! | Better apartment and building on Biscayne by the AAA, or a less desirable apartment and building in Brickell near Mary Brickell Village? | [

Hello!
For the past month I have done some serious soul searching and have come to the realization that my sexual orientation is not as black and white as I believed. I am a cis-female and I've been in a serious relationship with a male for two years now. In the past, I have only been romantically and sexually involved with men. However, I have (privately) been sexually attracted to women since maybe high school? (which only men I have been in a romantic relationship with know).
Until recently, I have denied every thought that suggested I have been attracted to females romantically as well. I have always been a huge supporter of the LGBTQ community, but when it came to myself, I would immediately think no - that's not me. Now I am finally starting to accept that my sexual orientation may not be as black and white as I once believed and that I do have some level of attraction for females as I do for males. First of all, I have no idea how to talk to my partner about this. I kind of want to give myself more time to come to terms with this new part of my sexuality before I do, but it's on my radar. Please let me know if you have suggestions.
Also, through all of this, I have come to terms with the reality that I was once in love with a female. We were close friends in college and I think my feelings towards her freaked me out to the point that I pushed her out of my life completely and just dated as many men as I could during that time. As far as I know, things are OK between her and I - we don't talk however except for the occasional "hope you are doing well" conversation.
So now that I am exploring this new part of myself and what my sexuality means to me, I have this urge to contact her. This is where I need MAJOR help. I think there is a chance that she once had feelings for me (there were signs) and part of me wants to admit that I had feelings for her and know for sure if the feelings were reciprocated.
However, I don't think anything good would come out of it (except for my peace of mind?) since so much time has passed (three years since I pushed her away) and now we are both in monogamous relationships with men. I am also worried that telling her will make it seem like I am using her to figure out my sexual orientation. The last thing I want is for herr to feel used or uncomfortable and I don't think it's worth it if that's a possible outcome. Also, I don't want a sexual or romantic relationship with her. It's strange because my old feelings for her feel fresh (because they are new to me?? I suppressed it for so long...) but I'm committed to my boyfriend. I love him very much and it's not cool with me to just drop him now that I've discovered I may be bisexual. Does anyone have advice? Also, how can I figure out this new part of sexuality without infidelity? There has to be a way. Thank you!
Please let me know if I need to make any corrections or if anything I've said if it is not PC. I want to become more educated on this topic. | I am 22, cis female in a relationship with a male. I have known that I am sexually attracted to females for a while, but have recently realized I have been attracted to females romantically as well.

I was jailbroken on 4.2.1 and used that all the way through 5.0.1 (I think that was the version?) around the time of the new software release I got a new phone (Samsung Infuse) and slowly I stopped using my ipod. So since this game "Clash of Clans" came out for ios all my friends have been playing and asking me to join their clan; I had to bust out the old ipod (Not old at all, 4th gen 64gb) and when it finally turned on I noticed my pages were maxed out with blank icons. When deleting these the ipod called them bookmarks. I went through and deleted every "bookmark" and then updated to 6.1.2 and after the ipod rebooted ALL of the blank icons were back! What can I do to fix this? I also have a TERRIBLE battery, I use it for 3 hours and it dies or it will say 20% left 4 or 5 times. | Blank icons keep reappearing, terrible battery life | [

Well, I believe that you are able to switch from one branch of a class to another for Adventurers (ie DrK to Pally). We can put that at 5 character slots. Next comes the heroes, M.A.P.L.E., which gives us 10 character slots taken. You then add the Resistance, which is DS, WH, DA, Mech, and BaM, making that 15.
5 Cygnus Knights make that 20.
Jett, DBs, Xenon, Hayato, Kanna are 5 classes, making that 25. You only have 24 slots.
Then comes Zero, and all that other jazz. That comes to well over 24. | No. | [

Hi reddit, I guess I just wanted to see if someone has ever had a similar experience because I feel alienated from everyone due to this. Sorry in advance for the incoming wall of text.
I identified but never acknowledged that I had feelings towards other guys when I was around twelve and came to terms with calling myself gay just a few months ago (I'm seventeen by the way). The first person I ever had feelings for was my best friend, and that caused some extremely profound changes that led to almost everything I think and believe today. We were pretty close and I've never felt so intensely, quietly altruistic and trusting and happy towards anyone before or since. He meant so much to me. Here's the thing though. We were both still pretty much kids the last time we saw each other (long story but we were separated suddenly and I never had the chance to tell him goodbye), so naturally I never thought that my feelings were anything other than friendship. Sexuality never came into it - to the point that even if I wonder about meeting him in present day again, it feels wrong and somehow incestuous that I could ever think of him in a sexual context. And growing up in a not very accepting environment with that as my only reference point as to what same-sex relationships could be like, it kind of messed things up in present day. The reason it took me so long to accept calling myself gay is because it always felt so dissonant to think that things like kissing or sex had anything to do with feeling close. I pretty much had to teach myself things like that. It's not like I'm asexual, I mean, I know what it feels like to be friends with someone and be physically attracted to them at the same time, but it's not at all the same thing as really wanting to be close to them in the same way, and none of it really fits together in a way that makes sense to me. I have no idea where to even begin again without being artificial. Getting to the point where I have to face my sexuality because I can't really get lost in schoolwork anymore and ignoring things, I'm strung out because of how none of what I think feels right seems to exist in reality. | I'm a gay guy who had deep feelings for his best friend before recognizing he was gay, and because of it, is now confused about how to consider romantic vs. intensely close, platonic relationships and wants advice/to relate. | [

I tend to have to go into the office on weekends when servers go down. So one weekend I headed up to the office and took my dog with me because the office is large and she can run around. I pulled up and there was another car there I had never seen. Figured it was someone picking up their stuff because we were moving out.
I walk in and my dog takes off towards the other side of the office (she normally goes right to my office) so I follow her. I don't see anyone and then she starts running to the conference room.
I look over to see my coworker very freaked out and started to walk over (thought he was stealing something) walked in on his wife half naked trying to get dressed as fast as she can. I turned around and tried to walk away quickly telling my dog to follow me. She wouldn't but I kept walking and calling her. She finally came running after me and they left as fast as they could.

"content": "I tend to have to go into the office on weekends when servers go down. So one weekend I headed up to the office and took my dog with me because the office is large and she can run around. I pulled up and there was another car there I had never seen. Figured it was someone picking up their stuff because we were moving out. \n I walk in and my dog takes off towards the other side of the office (she normally goes right to my office) so I follow her. I don't see anyone and then she starts running to the conference room. \n I look over to see my coworker very freaked out and started to walk over (thought he was stealing something) walked in on his wife half naked trying to get dressed as fast as she can. I turned around and tried to walk away quickly telling my dog to follow me. She wouldn't but I kept walking and calling her. She finally came running after me and they left as fast as they could. \n He got laid off 2 days later so we never had to face each other after that.",

A few years ago I was on holiday with my girlfriend at my Grandparent's house in France, and this was about a year after my Granddad had passed away. He always used to sit in this little side-kitchen, sitting in his checkered shirts with shorts and smoking a cigar. It was actually this room that he passed away in from a heart attack. One day on the holiday my girlfriend comes rushing in our room really worried/scared and she says she saw a ghost in the side kitchen bit. When i asked her to describe it she described it as being bald but bearded, smoking a cigar and possibly in short; she basically spot-on described my Granddad. Someone whom she had never seen, and whom i had never talked to her about at all. Needless to say I was pretty creeped out and told her about my Granddad and we basically avoided that room for the rest of the holiday. | Girlfriend possibly saw my Granddad's ghost, describes him to me without knowing what he looks like. | [

The Bank of Amsterdam employed full reserve banking, but that didn't prevent the tulip bubble. Moreover, under stateless capitalism, where is the regulatory oversight to ensure banks actually maintain a full reserve banking system? Are you suggesting banks regulate themselves?
This bank was regulated, by the Dutch Monarchy. The tulip bubble had nothing to do with the bank of Amsterdam, it was a market all it's own. That bank inflated its own currency by the use of the Agio. Further, this bank was a central bank, there was no competition(hardly a free market). I'm sure regulation kept it that this was the only bank in the city. There where other issues with the bank, but, I'm sure we both can agree that there was regulation on the bank from the State.

Capitalism did more to bring the country out of poverty as a whole than any communist policy ever has.
Yes, China has a very authoritarian policy, I mean one child per family, won't allow for it's farmers to move from rural areas. But, it's not these policies that brought China down to 16% poverty -- it's capitalism. 64% poverty down to 16% poverty. I'd say capitalism did more for their country than The People's Revolution. The brutality comes from the State, their income disparity is deepened from the State.
They have much more pro business stance in Taiwan's poverty level is a whopping **1.08% [living below the poverty line]( That is astounding success at eliminating poverty! America could learn a thing or two from Taiwan's success, pro-business stance.
China actually has less of centralized economy than USA by FAR. Privatization & pro property rights is astounding way to achieve eliminating poverty.

Moreover, under stateless capitalism, where is the regulatory oversight to ensure banks actually maintain a full reserve banking system?

Firstly i dont know if this is the right place to talk about this but.. im 17, never gone further than kissing a girl, most likely to do with my confidence. My problem is that when fully erect, my penis is curved to the point it bends round and touches my stomach, and from there on it is literally solid and i can't push it down. Sometimes if im lucky, it will be semi-hard and i can move it a bit more but it still has a slight curve. Is this a big problem? I can't see myself having pleasurable sex, i would like to go to my GP and ask about it but i think they will just say, you never know how it is till ive ACTUALLY had any form of intercourse.. | my penis is curved up to my stomach and wont budge. hbe i have a huge confidence problem because of it

Here's a serious answer. [Jonathan Dresner]( is a professor of history at Pittsburg State University and specializes in Japanese military history, and teaches a class on [samurai]( and other similar aspects of Japanese militaristic history and culture. Inevitably the question of what ninja really were/are comes up, so he usually devotes an entire class to [discuss]( it.
To summarize, ninja have kind of 3 phases in history.
Pre-history to early Tokugawa period: what we think of as 'ninja' today were really just samurai that did sneaky stuff. As Dresner says: [T]here clearly was a place for stealth, surprise and spycraft in the free-for-all conflicts of Japan’s warrior ages, when samurai honor was based more on “victory or death” than battlefield procedure. So some warriors did that.
Mid-Tokugawa to modern period: the ninja as a cultural idea/meme. In the relatively peaceful centuries of Tokugawa rule, there weren't any large battles and so the kind of skill that the the previous 'ninja' had (really just samurai skilled in non-traditional and asymmetrical tactics) weren't needed any more. This is when a lot of the lore of the ninja came into being, and ninja became part of the entertainment complex of the period. There were plays, books, ninja houses (essentially haunted houses), etc. This was when ideas like 'magic' ninja skills, ninja being poor peasant warriors a la Robin Hood, environmental consciousness, etc. all came into being.
Late Tokugawa (if you're feeling generous) to modern: the ninja as a martial arts school. There were all sorts of martial arts school during the Tokugawa period, and they all had three things: 1) some kind of 'secret' teachings that it reserved for successors, close family, etc. 2) An established lineage from a venerable ancestor, 3) rivalries with other school. In this way what came to be called as 'ninjutsu' is pretty much indistinguishable from every other Japanese martial art (or Chinese or Korean, for that matter).
By the way, the actual 'secret' teachings were really not all that interesting. In reality most of these secret teachings and techniques were little more than sneaky or dishonorable tactics (eye-gouging, throwing sand or salt in opponent's eyes, use of suntetsu , but because they were 'secret' a lot of myth and superstition came to be associated with them.
[Professor Karl Friday]( has even more academic chops in Japanese martial history, and he agrees with Dr. Dresner, saying [flat-out]( that [t]here are basically no publications in English on ninja worth reading--it's
all junk. He also explains that 'ninja' denotes a function, not a class or special clan or rank, and points out that pretty much everything that we associate with ninja and ninjutsu today derives from theatrical tradition during the Tokugawa period.
No one of any recognized academic peerage takes Hatsumi Masaaki's Bujinkan seriously: whatever legitimacy they may or may not have as a martial art, as 'ninjas' they're little more than cosplay wannabes. | The real 'ninjas' of history were just regular samurai that were skilled in less-traditional warfare: sneaking around, assassinating, etc. Everything that we think of as ninja comes from the entertainment of the Tokugawa period. Anything claiming to be real 'ninja' or 'ninjutsu' is crap: the real ones died with the end of the warring states period 400 years ago.
Edit: Jonathan Dresner also has a post [here]( where he links to some other sources. Karl Friday also says that the info at [ninpo.org]( by Roy Ron is pretty decent. | [

I pirate for one main reason: the game doesn't have a demo.
When the developer puts out a trailer that doesn't show any gameplay at all, and has no demo, I have no information that's useful. Even if there is gameplay footage, hands-on experience in the form of a demo is so much better. I don't like to buy games I haven't tried yet, so I'll get it just long enough to play a little bit (the first two missions or 30 minutes, whichever is shorter) so I can get a taste of it. Then if I like it, I buy it. If not, its usually consigned to the void. Also, if I am not sure if it will run on my computer, I'll pirate it to check how well it'll run. This again is the fault of no demo. I was really looking forward to playing Costume Quest, but the specs required were beyond those of my computer, so I torrented it, found that it ran reasonably well, and went on to buy it. (You know my computer is garbage when it can't even run Costume Quest smoothly.)
In regards to pirating from large companies, I really couldn't care less if someone pirated Skyrim or some other giant that's going to easily pull hundreds of millions of dollars or even a billion. Heck, if I ever get a computer that can handle Skyrim (probably 4 or 5 years down the road), I will have no qualms pirating it. On the other hand, stealing from a small indie company is pretty harsh. I have never not paid for an indie game that I liked. I push my friends hard to buy the games too if they liked it enough to finish the game.
Finally, on the issue of pirating games that you like enough to want to play, but not enough to drop the money on, I'd say its ok. This isn't like "I have $60 for games, I can buy game A or B. I love them both, but can only have one, so I'll buy A and pirate B." I'm talking about when a game is decent enough to hook you, but not good enough that you wanted to spend money on it even if you had extra cash with nothing to buy. For me, such a game was EYE Divine Cybermancy. I thought it was total garbage, but playing with guns is fun. So I pirated it and played it for about 2 or 3 hours, and by then I was completely sick of that nonsense game and uninstalled.
On the other hand, if you actually finish the game and/or love it, I think you should go and pay for it. I never intended to buy Frozen Synapse, but thought the concept was interesting. I pirated it, thinking I would play just one or two missions then ditch it. But then I found myself still playing it 6 hours later. I proceeded to buy a two-pack, sent one to my friend, and dropped another $20 on it when it came out in the Humble Bundle because its that good.
I am very interested in hearing what other people have to say on this subject as well. | I will pirate any game that has no demo but only to use it as a demo. (and when I say 'any game' I mean 'any game that I think I would like to play')
I will pirate any game that's going to make a massive amount of sales.
I will pirate any game that I like enough to play, but not enough to spend spare cash on, BUT will buy it if I finish the game and/or find myself loving the game. | [

Heck, if I ever get a computer that can handle Skyrim (probably 4 or 5 years down the road), I will have no qualms pirating it. On the other hand, stealing from a small indie company is pretty harsh. I have never not paid for an indie game that I liked. I push my friends hard to buy the games too if they liked it enough to finish the game. \n Finally, on the issue of pirating games that you like enough to want to play, but not enough to drop the money on, I'd say its ok. This isn't like \"I have $60 for games, I can buy game A or B. I love them both, but can only have one, so I'll buy A and pirate B.\" I'm talking about when a game is decent enough to hook you, but not good enough that you wanted to spend money on it even if you had extra cash with nothing to buy. For me, such a game was EYE Divine Cybermancy. I thought it was total garbage, but playing with guns is fun. So I pirated it and played it for about 2 or 3 hours, and by then I was completely sick of that nonsense game and uninstalled. \n On the other hand, if you actually finish the game and/or love it, I think you should go and pay for it. I never intended to buy Frozen Synapse, but thought the concept was interesting. I pirated it, thinking I would play just one or two missions then ditch it. But then I found myself still playing it 6 hours later. I proceeded to buy a two-pack, sent one to my friend, and dropped another $20 on it when it came out in the Humble Bundle because its that good. \n I am very interested in hearing what other people have to say on this subject as well.",

Nothing happens, I'm not being sarcastic or trying to sell brochures for atheism, but I do know that nothing happens.
More than once in my life I've had my heart stop on me and lost consciousness, it's actually a surprisingly painful experience and took quite a while to mentally deal with after words. In every occasion, there has never been a light, or anything. If the power goes out on a tape recorder while its recording and then later the power comes back, that's what I experienced except true final death, the power never comes back on and a story ends.
Admittedly it's a fairly frightening experience to comprehend what that means and it is indeed sad when people die in an untimely fashion ( is there ever a good time? ). But and there is a but, because there is nothing afterwards, life itself becomes much more precious. The game of life isn't over until its over, most people who commit suicide feel like they're stuck in between a rock & a hard place and feel the only escape is nothing. Sometimes the hard place or the rock are imaginary, sometimes they're not but the things binding you are illusions or weak enough to escape towards life ( long or fleeting, still much longer than nothing ).
I feel resentful to the religions that espouse idea's like heaven or hell. Hell is patently absurd and heaven seems like another form of hell, as life is ultimately about suffering. Not all the time granted, but enough to appreciate the good moments; a beautiful day, falling in love, reading a good book to its conclusion, beating a video game, learning something new, seeing old friends, having a cat nest in your lap, a dog finally understand the trick you're trying to teach them, the list is endless.
When someone dies, I don't pity them, resent them, envy them, or judge them. I know exactly what the last few minutes are like, I know how it feels, and I understand. [Telling someone they can't be sad because others have it worse is like saying someone can't be happy because others have it better. cited /r/depression, don't go there, it's depressing]( That's it, don't form an opinion, just try to understand and acknowledge them for how long they fought, maybe it was for only a day, an hour, or even a minute... even ten seconds is probably where the idea of hell came from.
Instead, what you can do is lie to yourself. Maybe you're alone, maybe you're like me and you've got a plethora of health problems, maybe you realize you've been used by someone, you were certain, loved you. That last one is less kind than actually being stabbed in the back. Ultimately you need to figure out who you're demon's are, that are mercilessly torturing you; terrible job, abuse, sickness, abandonment, isolation, lies, cowardice, fear, this list is also endless.
The path to suicide start's with "I can't..." and it ends in nothing. Instead, get up ( if you can ), find a mirror, accept who you are now in the mirror, and tell them "I can..." Sure it's an outright lie at that moment but that's step 1 in the first rule of politics: if you repeat a lie, enough times, it will become true. And this is politics, part of you want's to leave but can't find a way to justify doing that to the other half that want's to live, stalemate. Win, more life, more chances, more everything; lose, there is nothing, no peace, no resolution, just overwhelming pain, maybe the last thought is a realization this might have not been a good idea, and then
Just keep saying over and over, "I can do this", "I can survive", "I can move on.", "I can live" until the side that want's to die believes it's their own idea. Next step, look to your demon's and if its a shitty lover, a bad family member, a bad job, or millions of terrible things; decide if you can change things or not. If you cannot change them or they won't change or they want you to change in ways you do not, then it's time to leave. If part of your torment is feeling like no one listens to you, try listening to them and figuring out what they're really saying... do it long enough and you'll find a part of you staring back inside them, just another frightened human being struggling to figure life out. Perhaps then you can say the right words to wake them up and realize you do have to talk about. Of course perhaps you'll never know the right words, sometimes people are born and live a long life, never once waking up. It's sad but that's another example of hell on earth.
As for a bad job, those happen a lot in life and it brings everything down. Maybe you cannot escape your job, maybe you realized too late that its not the right job for you but you are committed. In the first case, start dreaming with open eyes and try to see a way you feel you would be happy with. In the second, I know this one pretty well. Strap on every layer of mental armor you've got, if you have ceramic plate, strap that on to. Commit to what your past promised you would do and just understand that it's going to feel like a lifetime squeezed into a minute... something bound up so tight will take a long time to unwind and absorb, but you can do it. As long as you're alive at the end of the day or the commitment, you're still alive. Maybe picked up a few demon's along the way, but they're not invincible now, just annoying little pests you need to squash relatively soon ( turn your back on one and it will grow and grow until one day it bites you in the ass at the worst possible moment ).
Finally, if you have faith then the one true message is that "God helps those, that help themselves" But there's a lot of ramifications to that single sentence. The weak will see it as justification to take and consume what is not there's, the strong will make it a war banner and believe their war is divine. Much too short sighted and megalomaniacal. Instead what exactly is it that is wanting for help? Look at the things you don't like about yourself, right it down if you can be humble, and decide which item on the list you must fix now. Along the way, you're going to find some item on the list can't be fixed by yourself. Technically you've already done this by posting here but only words of comfort can be sent back to you. They're great, take them, hold them to you and know someone wanted to let you know that you're not nothing and then move on. Don't get addicted to comforting words, too much becomes a sleep walkers path.
"Who help themselves." Greed, blindness, or a hero's quest.
Who are you? I know you're not just some electronic name reading a bunch of words on the screen. Do you have family or a pet? Do you tell them you love & appreciate them or perhaps maybe they don't deserve that. Those are the people who you need to barter a deal with, don't accuse them of what they've done or their sins but instead the conversation is about trying to reconcile, to make it so you can truthfully say "I love & appreciate you" with warmth. Sadly that might not happen, perhaps they don't want to reconcile. "Those who help themselves" follow the words and live by them. If someone doesn't want help, you can't help them. Move on.
Where are you? Are you in a warzone or perhaps an offshoot suburb of a metropolitan city, maybe you're in oblivion; surrounded by nothing or everything that is nothing for the moment. Could you make things better, don't build ego or idols, but maybe an older neighbor down the street is fading away and his property is going. Why not walk down there and offer to pick weeds or mow the lawn, no strings attached. If they say yes, do it, look back on what you've done and say "I did this..." it takes small steps to climb a mountain, trick is making the first one. In turn, you'll give the old neighbor a bit of pride to see the past cleaned up now. Perhaps try to join a local neighborhood weekly BBQ ( if they have them ), if they don't, perhaps that's a good step, but be sure to ask for help as that's a task not for individuals. | We're all stuck here, make the most of it and don't expect good things to happen on their own. Help yourself, help others, help the world, and maybe you won't even need god's help at the end. | [

My question, since you are the e-commerce guy, is how you could make such a horrible call like this in the first place? Now, I am not trying to insult you at all. But honestly, keeping certain exclusive skins as actually exclusive is a relative no brainer. The skins that should never be for sale alone are Goth Annie, Black Ali, Human Ryze and Judicator Kayle. These were all launch skins that you could only get from the digital collectors pack or by buying a physical copy of the game. They, along with King Rammus are the rewards Riot gave for people who were early adopters of the game and they should remain that way. | What were you thinking? I am legitimately curious as to how you thought this was a good idea in the first place. | [

I'm sort of in a (secret, we didn't tell others,) relationship but I'm not so sure how I feel about the guy, I don't think I ever liked him in the way you should like your lover.
The immediate reason I started really dating him was because we kissed once and I thought we could see what happens. (we'd met up together before, what you could consider a date)
since that moment we dated for about a month, but after that he had to leave my country, so we haven't met in about 7 months...
however, he's always there for me (through mobile chat and he even sent me presents by mail). I enjoy talking with him and it feels so good to have someone always there for you (I don't really have friends willing to spend a lot of time and energy on me).
I have been waiting to see how to go on, because I thought I need to see him irl again to properly decide on our relationship.
When he'd only been gone for about 2 months, I went clubbing with some friends, one of them was a boy I'd previously dated but we'd never got into a relationship. after dropping me off at home he went in for a kiss but I rejected him, because I wanted to try and be good towards the other guy. (I felt like I owed him that much, seeing how much he did for me). Immediately after I felt some regret, even if only the moment was quite beautiful to me. In the past few months, my feelings for this second boy began growing again and when I couldn't see him for some time I missed him more than I ever missed my boyfriend.
And now, the boy I liked before told me he is dating someone else. I've had my chance. So.. I'm too late to change anything, if I'd have kissed him, I might be dating him now instead of being in this long distance relationship.
But this talk is all quite useless, because even though I've always cared a lot about that boy, we probably wouldn't work out (like before), I'd feel insecure (for instance seeing on fb how he's hanging out with others while he hasn't got time for me), he'd be too busy, like before. Even when we were dating, he seemed to think his other friends more important.
And in the end I will probably stay with the guy I'm with now for some time, because I like his attention and his gifts, I might even use him to sponsor my traveling (he talked about buying me plane tickets). I feel like a gold digger but at the same time it feels so good to have some control and get the things I want. And I feel secure he won't leave me because I'm pretty much the best he can get. But.. I don't want people to know we're dating because it feels a bit fake since I don't have those feelings. It even feels fake to all him my boyfriend in this story but it's easiest to keep things clear this way.
oh.. this sounds more like something for r/offmychest.. sorry for that. I guess my title summed up everything best. sorry for this wall of text, I needed to get it out. (but I'm paranoid enough to probably delete it in some days) | I'm in a relationship but haven't been able to see my bf for a long time and now wish I didn't try stay true and had started dating someone else. | [

Fonts aside, I think Chattanooga doesn't need help making a comeback. We're doing pretty fantastic as a city. The font thing will bring us more attention, sure, but with things like our high speed internet and Volkswagen and our quality of living, we've already garnered quite a bit of national, and INTERnational attention.
I will say that the font has grown on me. I also like how the article notes that the town is in a "creative renaissance." Happy last day of the weekend. Perfect for getting drunk. | the font is cool and all, but our city kicks ass on it's own accord. | [

I'm strictly atheist, my wife is agnostic. We both agree religion and god are not necessary for our morals or our everyday life. My wife sides with the thought that she doesn't know. She won't say one way or the other. I lean more towards entirely atheist and firmly believe in science only. I think there is a possibility of a creator, but then I wake up and realise how silly I am being. Anyways... we have a 1 yr old girl. I'm wondering if there are any other parents out there who have had to deal with issues in school: teachers preaching, scaring your children with hell. Have there been any kids enticing your children to convert? Or any adults threatening your children with hell, etc? Out of any issue that may arise with my daughter, this scares me the most. Guys, alcohol, I sort of expect that stuff. I hope my daughter stays safe no matter what, but that stuff doesn't freak me out nearly as much as the thought of somebody damaging my girl's mind with any religious based threats. So, in conclusion: What has happened (if at all) and how did you deal with it? Atheist parent to atheist parent.
UPDATE: I want to clarify that I would in no way force an ideology on my children. If they chose religion over science then that's their choice and I will respect that. But I'm mostly afraid for those "die-hard" religious types tormenting my children. | I have a 1 yr old girl, i'm scared for her to hear religious propaganda in school. Has anyone dealt with this? How and what?
Thank you. | [

I've been trying to find a hilarious post from about a month ago of some middle eastern "terrorists" with serious guns and grenade launches and stuff. However, as the top commenter observed, the second guy from the end was holding a crockpot! :-) It was too funny. Anyway, I want to show it to someone, but reddit's search functionality sucks too bad. | Reddit, please fix your search so it includes comments, etc. | [

Hey. Long and chaotic post. Sorry.
Our relationship from the very beginning was special. Not terrible, special. She was the girl I lost my virginity to and she was happy to lose hers with me aswell. She is really sweet, loving and definitely loyal, but she has some downsides aswell. She tends to overreact and get nervous which caused many arguments when we were together. I smoke weed from time to time and it made me a really laid back person. I do not trouble myself with small things and she is quite the opposite. I had few reasons why I broke up with her. First was the one I mentioned above - overreacting. The second reason was that I no longer felt like I loved her. Last but not least - I wanted to sleep around bad.
Right before the summer started I told her for the first time that I wanted to break up and needed some space to think it through. She started crying but being the lurker here - I made it look like there is no going back. I will never forget her face from that day. She was crying like I was the only valuable thing she had. She loved me more than anyone had before. It was too much and I gave up. I agreed to try to work it out somehow. After few weeks I once again decided to tell her that im leaving and same thing happened. What is more, the same thing was happening for the next 3 months. All I wanted at that time was to get rid of her. I did not think about her emotions anymore. I felt like I was the victim and she wouldn't let me go. All that hate towards her led me to do something I regret to this day. After a wedding of my cousin, we argued a lot and I literally let my anger flow through me. I said the worst things that could have been said at that time. I was swearing, calling her a bitch and a whore repeatedly for like and hour hoping she would just let me kick her out of my life, but she did something different. The whole time I was doing all that terrible things to her she tried to hug me and love me an convince me that we can still be together. She did everything she could, but It was not enough.
After that I felt amazing. I was finally single and free. For about two months I was enjoying my life. I liked it a lot. I still cared about her in some way or another.
Then something started happening. As the time went by I felt worse and worse. I started missing her. I missed her touch, missed her voice. I missed all the love she used to have for me. We talked few times. She seems strong, but I can see that it is not natural and she is somehow faking it. During the conversations we had on fb I mentioned that she is still important to me and that I wanted her to be my friend. She told me that after what I had done to her there is no way it would happen. I understand that. She has the right to feel that way. I told her that I would like to meet her whenever she wants, because I would like to talk. She texted me yesterday and we had a chat for a bit. It was about 10pm. She told me again that friendship was not an option and we talked a little bit about her studies.
I went back home and got a text from her on fb around 2am. She said she has a stupid offer. She couldn't sleep and wanted to go for a walk. I agreed and was at her house relatively quickly. This time the conversation was much better. After talking about not important stuff I said I was really sorry. I really was. She gave me a hug and we stayed there for like 30 minutes again talking about nothing. When we were coming back I did something she probably didn't expect. When we were together I would often carry her on my arms. I dont know how to explain it properly but she would literally be sitting on my arms and I would be holding her legs with my hands. I offered to carry her like that to my car and decided to finally behave like a man and not a puss. Without waiting for her response I just went for it and she didn;t mind. She joked that she had gained some weight recently but I ignored it. I could feel that she was a little heavier but god, those squats made me a man. We got to the car, I opened her door like I always used to and I dropped her at her house. No kiss, no hug, just plain goodbye. I didn't ask for anything tho.
Today I just couldnt get her out of my mind. I went to the church and decided to call her afterwards. She was still in bed. She answered the phone with the voice so familliar to me. I asked how was her sleep and asked if she wanted to meet today again. She said she will text me with the response because she is expecting some family to visit her.
One thing I forgot to mention was that she had a boyfriend during that 2 months of us not staying in touch. She said it was just a placeholder but I still felt kind of hurt even though I was the one who broke up. Im sure they did not have sex or anything and that all they did was kissing but I still felt terrible. Even if it was just a placeholder she kissed him and If she did she must have had some feeling towards him. Some affection. I feel so destroyed when I think of her ever being with someone else, even kissing someone else even though I kissed some girls in the meantime.
What the hell is wrong with me people. Im lost. The whole text is probably very chaotic, im sorry. | Broke up with my gf because I did not love her and wanted to sleep around. After 2 months of godmode I feel like I want her back. Im lost. | [

For me:
My first job ever was at a McDonald's down the street from my house when I was 16. I was pumped because I had a job and I would actually be making some spending money. I picked things up quickly and started to get along with some of the employees that had been there a while.
The manager was a nutjob. I had a hard time understanding how this guy even held down the management job until I found out he was married to the franchise owner's daughter.
This guy would yell at us for, literally, no reason and he would completely ignore gross violations of health code, safety and common sense. I quickly lost all respect for him, not a good thing at your first job, and fell into joking around with and about him with other coworkers.
One day, in the middle of the summer, I started humming some Christmas-related song. I don't know why, I guess I was just goofing around.
He fucking flipped . He went off on me for being unprofessional and told me that if I couldn't correct my "attitude problem" that I would be looking for another job.
At that point I stopped giving a fuck about that job. But upon seeing his reaction to this, everyone that worked there started humming Christmas music at random times. Usually just within earshot but far enough away so there was a doubt as to who it was. He would flip out equally on everyone.
I have no idea why he reacted the way he did, but it was enough for all of us to have a good time. I never got fired and eventually put my two weeks notice in to go work in the kitchen at a local golf resort with a bunch of Jamaicans that were on some sort of work program. | First boss ever lost his shit when he heard me humming a song, so coworkers naturally began doing it just to piss him off.
Edited for spelling and grammar. | [

I'm certain there are some people that don't mind it and are actually so good they can carry a game with the team missing half of it with 2 minutes left over. But today I'm yet to join a single game that hasn't been going on for a while, wasn't missing people and had enough time to recover, and I'm sick of it.
I'm sick of leavers, too - the kind of leavers that are too salty to even finish a game. I'm the last one to judge those with shitty PC or internet, as I have both, though I do feel bad when my PC just suddenly restarts and can't even let others know that I didn't leave on my own. But this is the thing: as long as there's no distinction made between manually disconnecting from a game and accidentally leaving the game (bad connection, PC restarts etc) any kind of punishment would favor one and would be harsh to the other.
However, I think at least the "joining active game" problem could be solved by implementing a new option in the settings. I want to be able to decide if I want to be thrown into an active game. I don't want to inflate my number of losses because people keep leaving for whatever reason, completely messing up a game. I want to see it more accurately how well I'm doing by starting a game from the beginning, rather than how well I'm doing when I have 2 minutes left (or less sometimes) to react to the situation. Just in general this shit is getting really annoying and I want to retain some control over it.
A lot of people would probably use this, which means there wouldn't be too many people joining active games in case someone leaves. But the vast majority of the times the game is lost anyway even if someone does join. In that case the "no penalty if someone else left" thing could apply, even in quick play. I don't see why it shouldn't, quick plays still affect one's profile and stats not just competitive. Some might care, some not, but generally it's not an idea that must be reserved for serious, competitive gaming. Sure, the penalty isn't as great as it is for competitive, but I don't think that'd be a compelling reason not to use it. | I feel one could have a lot of control over their losses if they were allowed to pick "don't join active game" in settings and weren't penalized in case someone also left already, regardless of game mode. | [

This post is to hopefully prevent more PSAs/misinformation in the future about the Steam Trading Card System and Dota 2: [Trading Card FAQs](
From the FAQ s:
>Free to play games drop game cards based on your in-game purchasing history... You'll receive more card drops when you buy items in game, approximately one card drop for every $9 USD spent.
About the Trading Cards:
"Trading Cards" are digital cards on Steam
6 games (TF2, Dota 2, Half-Life 2, Portal 2, CS:GO, Don't Starve) right now have these cards
Each game has a certain number of cards and card series
Card "drops" are when a game is played and a card is received
There are only a certain number of card drops that can be obtained per game
Non-F2P games will only get a certain number of drops, ever
To complete these series cards will need to be traded, bartered, or sold
Free to Play games (TF2 and Dota 2) get drops determined based off of money spent in-game
Approximately every $9 spent should give a new trading card drop in the F2P model games
Cards can be traded, sold, or collected on Steam
Trading Cards and Dota 2:
Card drops will be determined based off of money spent in-game or on the market at ~$9/drop
[There are 8 total cards in Series 1](
A card series can be collected multiple times to "level up" a badge for more XP/rewards on Steam
Card drops technically don't reset because more drops come from more money spent and it isn't set at a fixed drop number | Trading Cards]( are a new virtual item system for Steam. For Dota2 you can get more trading card to drop for approximately every $9 you spend in-game. They are like any other item and can be bartered, traded, sold, or collected on Steam. | [

I'm a junior who was supposed to start nursing school next week. Except I'm not. My department is screwing me over. The problems started in the fall. I had taken all of my prerequisite classes but two, and you needed permission numbers to get in to the classes. I did everything I was supposed to do, and my advisor said "oh, we'll send you the numbers next week." But she didn't. Then, the next week, I emailed and she told me I would have to wait for grades to post, and the next week she told me to wait for some processing. Then the school closed for Christmas. When it opened back up, I emailed and emailed and emailed, and then the classes were all full. So I had to spend my time and money taking a chemistry class instead of what I was supposed to be taking. Well, I called to complain, and the advisor had left a few days before. I had no advisor for 2 months. Well, it was all okay, because I could just take the classes that summer. The next problem happened when I was supposed to get my acceptance to nursing school. My school has a policy that qualified students who started out as a freshman have automatic acceptance. I qualified and was guaranteed by my old advisor that I would get in. Then, come April, I didn't. I called my advisor, and she didn't answer. I tried to make an appointment, but she was booked up. I even called the dean of the department, who sent me straight back to my advisor. Finally, I got an email saying that she had a cancellation and she'd meet with me. I actually got my parents to go with me, because they obviously don't listen to me, so I thought they'd listen to someone who paid the tuition. Well, we finally got her to look at it, and surprise! There had been a clerical error and I was supposed to be admitted. Well, I got admitted two days later. Now I had to get the permission numbers for summer. I had to email almost every day for two weeks before she finally let me have them, the day before class starts. Well, my classes started for the summer, and I started struggling with one of them. Now, I'll just say that my grades have never been perfect, but if I'm not doing well, I won't go down without a fight. So I went to her office every week asking for tips, studied for 2 hours every day, went to every class. Then my homeworks and quizzes started disappearing off of Blackboard. Like it never happened. I'd taken them and made good grades, but they were not even showing up. It was ridiculous. I asked her for study tips all the time, talked to my (different) advisor several times, worked really really hard. But I only made it out with a 72. (Nursing classes consider a 74 or lower failing.) Now I'm a semester behind. So I called my advisor, who sent me to my old pre-nursing advisor to get the permission numbers ONCE AGAIN. It's been a week, and I still haven't heard back.
I know that I'll sound crazy for this, but I think they're trying to get me to drop out. Withholding permission numbers, rejecting me from the school? I think they're trying to weed me out because I only have a 3.0 GPA when most of the other kids have a 4.0. We have one of the highest employment rates (97% of graduates have job offers before they even graduate) in the state. It's like they take the kids who are most likely to fail, and make them fail before they can mess up our statistics. I know that failing the class was on me, but everything else feels so out of my control. I feel like they're just playing me like a marionette! Am I crazy? | Feel like department is trying to weed me out through immoral means before I start the program. Also might be paranoid. | [

We have two cats at our house. One is our (my and my boyfriend's) cat who is about a year and a half and the other is our roommate's cat who is about 8 months old. Since we got her at 8 weeks she has always been a very slow eater. She gets enough to eat every day, but it will take her all day to eat it as she will only take a few bites and then walk away.
Our roommate's cat was introduced when he was about 10 weeks old,is a major fatty, and has always eaten super fast. He inhales his food as soon as its set in front of him, begs all day long for food, and worst of all, eats whatever my cat doesn't finish in the 5 minutes it takes him to eat his food.
The cats get fed 1/4 cup three times a day of the same (adult) food at the same time. Its probably way too much for the little guy, but he's already so big (muscular with a bit of extra fat) it doesn't really matter at this point. Since my cat eats so slow, we have had to resort to putting her food up (AT LEAST 10 times a day) after she takes a few bites and walks away so that the other cat can't get it. Otherwise, Mr. Fat Cat will eat all of his food, all of her food, and if we have to put more food out for our cat, he will eat that as well.
I don't know what to do. If we leave our cat's food down unsupervised, in two minutes it will all be gone. I am tired of having to take her food down so often, and a lot of times, we forget to put it up fast enough and Mr. Fat Cat finds it and its gone. He will also try to hunt it down in our bedroom and knock it off whatever accessible shelf we stupidly put it on. We finally found an inaccessible shelf to put it on that he can't get to.
I know that basically the only solution to this problem is to get my cat to eat faster, but I don't know how to go about doing that. She is naturally a very slow eater. Even if she goes an extra long period of time without eating, she will not eat all her food in one sitting. The only thing I can think of is to feed the cats less food more often, but then I'm going to be feeding them 6 times a day in order for her to eat everything at once, and I'm pretty sure she still wouldn't eat it all. So now, fair Cattitors, please give me any and all input on how to fix this super annoying problem!! Little guy is starting to get overweight and I know that this annoying habit of his is only going to get worse as he gets older. So does anyone have any advice they can give me? | Our male cat eats way too fast and our female cat eats really slow, so Mr. Fat Cat ends up eating the rest of her food and she doesn't get enough. Advice on how to correct this problem?

My girlfriend [17f] of over a year is spending a lot of time hanging out with other guys and its bothering me [17m].
She has a group of friends that are guys that are also somewhat my friends, and she hangs out with them a lot. It's odd because they will do things as a group of ten or more people, and she will be the only girl attending.
She has done things in the past to betray my trust:
A month or so into the relationship she admitted she had a crush on a guy, but that blew over.
Two months in she started speaking to my best friend a lot, as he was upset about breaking up with his girlfriend and I was away. I was at his house when he was in the shower one night, and my girlfriend wasnt responding to my messages. My friends phone was buzzing like crazy so I went to have a look, and she was messaging him. I unlocked his phone and read some of the convo that included him admitting that he liked her,and telling her not to tell me. As well as her saying "I would go out with you if I wasnt already going out with (me)". She said she just said it to support him and had no real intention. I'm not friends with this guy anymore as a result.
She has this sleazy friend (part of the group she hangs out with) who has a reputation for being horny. She sent me a screenshot of a snapchat from him because her phone was frozen and she thought it was funny. It had a caption "are you gonnna go have a rub in the toilet" (rub as in masturbate). I told her I didnt want her speak to him anymore and she got upset and acted as if i was acting unreasonable. She said her friends said it was fine. So we were angry at each other about that for a while.
She has one guy friend that she hangs out with a lot; as much as she hangs out with me. His sexuality is questionably gay, however it still bothers me because shes said stuff like "I feel more comfortable around him". She sometimes sneaks out to see him in early hours of the morning (she also sneaks out to see me).
Im not invited to a lot of the things she attends with these guys, so I cant keep an eye on everything. She goes out and drinks with them, or just goes to hang out with them.
I dont want to come off as a dick, but I'm probably more attractive than most of these guys, which I suppose is relevant. Another point which may hold relevance is that my mum had an affair, and I'm probably distrusting as a result.
It bothers me because unless shes hanging out with wizards, they would surely be sexually attracted to her (i know the snapchat perv is). Does she hang out with these guys because she likes the attention? She tell me its because "guys are less drama". I'm asking you whether or not my thoughts are unreasonable, and how I should handle it.
P.S.
A lot of the things I've said about her and quoted are taken out of context, she is generally very nice and loving towards me. | My girl friend has betrayed my trust before and shes spending a lot of time hanging out with other guys. | [

I want more.
An organised transparent unbiased force which specialised in objective based - demographically targeted awareness spreading.
We need to recognise our experts
These are the people who (when someone posts some link to this or that) will comment with their input. I've seen a number of first hand or just research based specialists who will comment on certain stories with a compelling addition sometimes backed with sources and links. If we can get an infrastructure of experts who we can utilise to provide useful input on a variety of areas we can help cut the disinfo blog spam from the smoking guns.
We need a consistent singular identity
With any awareness spreading - as well as internal relations. We need /r/Conspiracy to have the reputation we want to have. If we have consistency then when we do venture out say.. in ask-science and someone brings up /r/consp... and mentioned we had a thread on a related topic - and we came to this conclusion .. For the people then to recognise that not as a tin foil hat situation - but instead have faith in our ability to genuinely provide informative input.
people know anonymous for their hacktivism
people know AMA as one of the interfaces with celebrities and the internet
people know Wikipedia as a massive library
people know Wikileaks for their leaks and privacy promise
I'd love for there to be a place like that for conspiracies a house-hold name and I think that's something this sub reddit could aspire to. By a singular identity I don't mean we need to all agree to provide a hive-mind. But if we consistently provided one of the better explanations for certain events and offered a fantastic and regular menu of mouth watering conspiracies then - that.
We need to target other researchers not just the masses
I think if any are, this one could be the most overlooked. Awareness spreading is troubling business, it's hard to cater for all demographics - I've been trying it for a long time. But we can't just target the masses and people looking to know more, we need just as many more researchers - people who know information. We need to attract and adapt an infrastructure where people with specialist information can find a voice and be heard. If I was a UFO specialist - I'm not going to join a forum or website that has aliens and stars/planets as a background image with a small ufo as a mouse pointer with glitter text.
We need to stick to our roots
One of the reasons I am here and one of the best attributes for enlightenment is something this sub-reddit provides very nicely. Inspiring people to do their own research ! If the subreddit ever got to a point where we relied too much on the experts, it has a dangerous and real chance to turn into something like the r/science and the respective sciences. My meaning is, people see a cool topic, immediately check the first comment to see what the posts misses and may read other comments. But risk taking others word for certain topics. If information is too accessible people will quickly pass over it without getting to personally involved. Here, there's rarely ever such simply explained or convincing views posted with enough conviction that people feel they can take the commenters word on the matter. Ergo people if interested will go about looking into the matter themselves.
A key point to understanding this is, some of us who might feel they're at a certain level of enlightenment may actually be able to explain everything they know in a | 30 minute - 2hour talk. But the real interesting thing is, we're not what we know, we're the journey we took in finding it. Every video we watched, every line we've read, every piece of dis-info we fell for, didn't fall for, every strand on the complex web.. It's our experience and relationship we have with information on the web which makes us who we are, not the conspiracies we believe and the links we've seen.
We need to manifest an ego-less science
Even mainstream science has huge resistance when they propose controversial things. Even with backed up repeatable scientific data and experiments, such as the recent matter of particles exceeding the speed of light at the LHC. There's no way we can effectively address the scrutiny we'd receive with our claims. We therefore need zero defence. Zero back and forth chatter with others who question and accuse us. We should answer our own cynics and our own reason inside our posts and awareness spreading or not at all. If we bite the first community who fish in our waters we'll forever spend our time trying to back ourselves up. Compare that to ignoring most cynicism, but answering it indirectly in more posts and consistently bringing out the very best objective based observations we can - is the best way. We'll find people will defend us themselves. | [

I got my mine done about 1999, but instead of getting LASIK, I got a PRK.
In a PRK you zap the front of the eyeball instead if cutting a flap, lasering under the flap and closing the flap.
Recovery is much longer and much more painful, and you have a couple of months where your vision is kind of blurry up and uncorrectable.
BUT, it is very safe. A PRK is essentially a corneal abrasion and human have been getting, and recovering from those for millions of years. Since there's no flap, you avoid all the risks inherent with cutting and replacing the flap.
The outcome was amazing. Crystal clear vision in all brightnesses and distance. My eye doctor told me that when the time came, I would need reading glasses and that they'd need to be stronger than if I hadn't had the surgery. I currently have a stack of reading glasses that I buy in bulk from Costco, and while annoying, it's not nearly as bad as living life near sighted. | Had a variant of LASIK called PRK, probably safer, longer recovery, great outcome. | [

An AMA is a different level of commitment, and a different sort of focus. You spend an hour on the phone with Victoria from your trailer talking about which horse-duck combo you would fight, you pitch your movie, and thousands of people see it. It costs you very little of your time, and suddenly a whole bracket of your audience determines that you're hip with the times, and they go and check out your new project.
A con forces you to travel, and puts you there having to turn on your PR charm for 12 hours at a time, for multiple days, to relate your pitch to people individually, or to a room with maybe 300 people in it, from a specific geographic area. You could almost get away with doing San Diego Comic Con strictly for "exposure", but small cons would be dismissed as not worth it.
The celebrities (who are often brands beyond themselves, with staff including agents, pr people, handlers, personal assistants, etc. that all need to be paid so they can feed their families) get a negotiated flat amount based on expected demand and how difficult it is for them to be there.
Part of it is that with high-demand people like celebrities, if they're not working there, they're working somewhere else. It's not as likely that Elijah Wood was just going to spend his weekend watching Netflix in his underwear, coasting on Lord of the Rings residuals. He's going to be somewhere, so there has to be some incentive for that con being the chosen place.
There are definitely celebrities that love cons, but the way /u/wil Wheaton put it is that time spent at a con is time not being spent on some other project. Assuming that the celebrity should appear for free because they somehow owe you something, or are going to get "great promotion" is a little bit dismissive of what got you wanting to see them in the first place. Like telling a trained musician that they should play for free because it's "great exposure" to play for 30 people at your cousin's wedding reception. The celebrity needs to be offered enough money for the appearance that their agent is willing to decide that shipping them out there for that weekend is the best course of action for Elijah Wood the company, even if Elijah Wood the actor enjoys it and would be willing to do it for free. | Time is money, so the marketing wouldn't be free, and a Hollywood celebrity marketing to 500 people in a board room in Boise, Idaho is not worth doing for free. | [

My girlfriend [23F] dumped me two weeks ago. We have a 5 year old daughter together who I have custody of and take care of. We had gotten back together five months ago after a 5-year hiatus. In those give years we became best friends and got along very well (strictly friends). The whole time I've been madly in love with her and I would sometimes get really drunk m and tell her.
She finally decided to give us another shot. We had so much fun, she seemed so happy. We spent so much amazing family time together, I was the happiest man on the planet. Then she dumped me four months later saying she could never see me as more than a friend since we had been friends for so long. I've been so desperately in love with this girl for the better part of 9 years and we had planned our whole lives together.. Marriage, houses, our family and so much more.
I'm so hurt. I can't think my own thoughts, I'm horribly depressed and I just want to give up on everything but I can't since I have my daughter to take care of. I feel like my whole life has been ripped away from me so fast. I was the happiest man on the planet when we got back together. Now our daughter is asking me when we'll spend time with her mom and I together. I can't deal with this and I don't know what to do.
Someone please give me advice on how to deal with this emotionally and with my daughter. If we spend family time together I will be horribly depressed and it wouldn't be good for anybody.
I have lost all confidence and self worth. All I wanted in life was for us to be together with our daughter for the rest of our life. Happy and forever. Everything is gone now. | I don't know how to deal with a recent break up, my idea of a perfect family has been ripped away from me. | [

Hey everyone!
I'm still a newbie goblin, and unfortunately I feel stuck as to what i can do at the minute. My goal is at least one gold cap before legion, and I have some questions as to how people think I should go about achieving this.
So far, I have around 150k liquid gold on me (It was 250k, but these token prices in EU are ridiculous at the minute - 90k for a token), and around 350k worth of stuff on the auction house that doesn't seem to be selling. Don't worry, I'm not going to complain - it's mostly transmog, I just need to wait for the payday.
So far, the vast majority of my gold has been through producing and selling Vials of the sands - they sell for an average of 60k on my realm, so I can net around 10k profit. However, these are extremely slow to sell, and I feel that I should be branching out to more than just transmog and vial of the sands to be getting gold.
My main concern is that I don't seem to be making any gold from my professions at the minute, as I just don't know what is profitable. So far, my professions are (all at 700):
mining
Herbalism
inscription
tailoring (twice, I'm producing hexweave bags)
alchemy (make the occasional Vial of the sands)
Engineering
Enchanting
Is there any ways that you could suggest I could make more money using these professions? At the minute I have no idea what is good to craft, in general (I know this varies from realm to realm, but general items to look at would be helpful :)). I'm also on a very high population RP realm, if that makes a difference.
One last question that I have - I currently have five level 100 toons, yet only one has a fully functioning garrison netting me any income. Is it worth, this close to the end of the xpac, setting up the garrisons on the other characters? The garrisons on them are already level 3, they just have next to no followers at the minute. | What do you find profitable to make with your professions, and is it too late to set up garrisons on level 100 alts? | [

This was less of a frightening experience, it was just disturbing and confusing.
I distinctly remember the crisp freshness of the rain wafting through my sliding screen door. The clacking of the long vertical blinds made it hard to stay asleep, though the sound of rain made waking a depressing thought. The world seemed dismal as the sun lay shrouded far beyond a curtain of endless clouds. I don’t know why the rain left me this way, but I felt alone as if all of the vibrancy was gone from my room.
I sat up slowly before standing, trying to shake off last night’s whiskey headache so I may remember what happened. I stretched and walked a few paces before slumping onto the couch, remembering the fight I had with my fiancee. She had left after a fight to go for a run and she wasn’t back. I thought she was just blowing off steam, but she could have come back and got her things while I was sleeping. I checked the closet and drawers, not a thing was out of place, so where did she go?
Her keys were gone, and stepping out onto my small balcony, I could make out that her car was gone. I tried calling her phone, but it went straight to voicemail and I hung up. Her phone must have been off, but I sent a text with my slightly shaking fingers. I set the phone on my coffee table and slouched over it for what could have been hours. Despite the draft from outside, my back was covered in sweat as I nervously waited for a response. My mind jumped frantically from thought to thought, trying to figure out what I would say when she got back. Part of me was scared to have her storm in angrily, while part of me just wanted her back in my arms. My heart jumped worriedly every time I heard footsteps on the stairs in the building, a feeling which was followed by disappointment when I heard them enter a different apartment.
Hours passed and I called again, going straight to voicemail and hanging up immediately. Over the next hour I entered a state of manic depression, texting in almost split personalities. I would beg her dead phone to call me back, I would send futile pleas to go out to dinner and forget about our fight, only to spark an angry reaction in myself when she inevitably didn’t answer. It was hopeless, and I began to drink. Every time my trembling hands set the silent phone down they picked up a bottle of sweet liquor which began to sear my already dry throat.
I decided that she probably didn’t go far, so I would have a chance finding her in town. It was too far to walk and I didn’t have a license or car of my own, so I went to the bottom of the stairs where I had my bike chained to the banister by the wheel. I didn’t have the key on me and spent the next half hour tearing up my apartment trying to find it. No luck. I called the police to file a missing persons report, but the operator seemed bothered to help me. She sighed and asked me when I last saw her, and I told her it was about midnights. She wouldn’t help me as it hadn’t been a full 24 hours and hung up before I could say anything else. Before setting my phone down I got a second idea.
I called again, this time reporting her car missing. Fortunately I remembered the plates, make model and every detail they could possibly need to track it down. I felt quite clever and almost cracked a smile, which faded nervously as I waited to hear back from the other end. My heart slowed to a near stop when she replied. She said they didn’t have record of that type of car registered with that license plate. I asked if she could check again and she sighed even more heavily than before and continued to lecture me on how important it is to keep the lines open for real emergencies.
I couldn’t take this feeling of helplessness any longer. I ran outside barefoot into the rain yelling my Fiancee’s name at the top of my lungs. There was no response but the endless pouring rain. Noises in the distance seemed to call to me, struggling to be heard over the rain. I yelled again. A window slammed shut behind me, breaking my trance. I realized that the only responses I was getting were dogs barking, or car horns far in the distance. I turned to go inside, seeing an old lady at her window shaking her head at me. I dried off, changed and sunk into the lonely comfort of my couch.
The bottle was slowly bleeding dry and the room began to spin. The light outside grew dim as the rain continued to chatter like radio static. I heard a sharp buzz, but took a minute to react. My phone had a text message from my fiancée. “I don’t know who the fuck you are, but don’t contact me ever again.” I begged her to forgive me but she wouldn’t answer any of my texts or calls. I tried calling her sister, asking if my fiancée was there and ok. The response was one of the saddest realizations of my life “She isn’t here, you know that. She’s been gone for over a year.” “Where” I asked “She’s gone and you can’t bring her back. She’s buried in Kerrygold’s Cemetery”.
I hung up and dropped the phone realizing what had happened. I couldn’t quite remember the details of her passing, but I remembered the fight. I called for a cab and asked the driver to take me across town to Kerrygold’s cemetery. I began to piece together details of what happened. The wiper blades calmed me like a metronome which slowed with time. I pictured her, leaving to go for a run in the rain after an argument about nothing. We shouted back and forth as she stood waiting to leave. I could have just let her cool down, but I was too angry to hold back another rash statement. I remembered the look of anguish on her face as she slammed the door, echoing as I closed the cab door behind me. I didn’t care to make the guy wait, even though late church bells were ringing about seven or eight, so I yelled to the cabby “yo homes smell ya later” then I looked at my kingdom, I was finally there to sit on my throne as the prince of Bel Aire. | I forgot about the worst thing that ever happened to me after blocking if from my memory, and was crushed upon remembering it | [

My mind jumped frantically from thought to thought, trying to figure out what I would say when she got back. Part of me was scared to have her storm in angrily, while part of me just wanted her back in my arms. My heart jumped worriedly every time I heard footsteps on the stairs in the building, a feeling which was followed by disappointment when I heard them enter a different apartment. \n Hours passed and I called again, going straight to voicemail and hanging up immediately. Over the next hour I entered a state of manic depression, texting in almost split personalities. I would beg her dead phone to call me back, I would send futile pleas to go out to dinner and forget about our fight, only to spark an angry reaction in myself when she inevitably didn’t answer. It was hopeless, and I began to drink. Every time my trembling hands set the silent phone down they picked up a bottle of sweet liquor which began to sear my already dry throat.\nI decided that she probably didn’t go far, so I would have a chance finding her in town. It was too far to walk and I didn’t have a license or car of my own, so I went to the bottom of the stairs where I had my bike chained to the banister by the wheel. I didn’t have the key on me and spent the next half hour tearing up my apartment trying to find it. No luck. I called the police to file a missing persons report, but the operator seemed bothered to help me. She sighed and asked me when I last saw her, and I told her it was about midnights. She wouldn’t help me as it hadn’t been a full 24 hours and hung up before I could say anything else. Before setting my phone down I got a second idea. \n I called again, this time reporting her car missing. Fortunately I remembered the plates, make model and every detail they could possibly need to track it down. I felt quite clever and almost cracked a smile, which faded nervously as I waited to hear back from the other end. My heart slowed to a near stop when she replied. She said they didn’t have record of that type of car registered with that license plate. I asked if she could check again and she sighed even more heavily than before and continued to lecture me on how important it is to keep the lines open for real emergencies. \n I couldn’t take this feeling of helplessness any longer. I ran outside barefoot into the rain yelling my Fiancee’s name at the top of my lungs. There was no response but the endless pouring rain. Noises in the distance seemed to call to me, struggling to be heard over the rain. I yelled again. A window slammed shut behind me, breaking my trance. I realized that the only responses I was getting were dogs barking, or car horns far in the distance. I turned to go inside, seeing an old lady at her window shaking her head at me. I dried off, changed and sunk into the lonely comfort of my couch. \n The bottle was slowly bleeding dry and the room began to spin. The light outside grew dim as the rain continued to chatter like radio static. I heard a sharp buzz, but took a minute to react. My phone had a text message from my fiancée. “I don’t know who the fuck you are, but don’t contact me ever again.” I begged her to forgive me but she wouldn’t answer any of my texts or calls. I tried calling her sister, asking if my fiancée was there and ok. The response was one of the saddest realizations of my life “She isn’t here, you know that. She’s been gone for over a year.” “Where” I asked “She’s gone and you can’t bring her back. She’s buried in Kerrygold’s Cemetery”. \n I hung up and dropped the phone realizing what had happened. I couldn’t quite remember the details of her passing, but I remembered the fight. I called for a cab and asked the driver to take me across town to Kerrygold’s cemetery. I began to piece together details of what happened. The wiper blades calmed me like a metronome which slowed with time. I pictured her, leaving to go for a run in the rain after an argument about nothing. We shouted back and forth as she stood waiting to leave. I could have just let her cool down, but I was too angry to hold back another rash statement. I remembered the look of anguish on her face as she slammed the door, echoing as I closed the cab door behind me. I didn’t care to make the guy wait, even though late church bells were ringing about seven or eight, so I yelled to the cabby “yo homes smell ya later” then I looked at my kingdom, I was finally there to sit on my throne as the prince of Bel Aire.",

Fist off, Spoilers of all 3 games, so yeah.
So, I've just finished playing the first and second game, previously playing the third one, and I can't help but wonder how did the reapers get to earth so fast?
In ME1 you larn that the reapers attacked the Protheans at the citadel first, because, well, it was a deep-space mass relay, and how they got back into the galaxy. This was also why Sovereign was such a big threat. It was going to re-activate the relay, and allow the reapers in.
Although, from the events on ME2, you are told that the Reapers instead use the Alpha relay, which is why you blow it up. Although this pretty much completely removes the first game's importance. Then, at the end of ME2, you see the massive reaper army really, really far out from the galaxy. making any FTL travel a considerable amount of time. I say this because the citadel was always how they've gotten into the galaxy, so there would be no reason for the F | ives on reaper ships to be incredibly fast. Also, I'm under the impression they're really far out due to the scale of the Milky way below them.
So again, I must ask, If the reaper's plans A and B were both disabled, how did they get to earth within Shepard's natural life time? | [

Been Prot Warrior tanking the last couple weeks and I'm running BRF with my guild. However, I tend/seem to be squishy as shit and I don't know why. I'm using my cooldowns, I (think) am using SB and SBr when necessary and using DS/ER on cooldown, but I'm still almost a wet paper bag.
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? | Please help me not suck at tanking

I have been with my wife for almost a year, married for 6 months. During which time we had plenty of fights but the more I think about it plenty of great memories. I think its just sad that it takes so many more great memories to overcome the fights.
So we both have our issues, I was battling depression from a variety of things such as a shitty job, long commute and arguing with my wife..who was dealing with her own issues, food allergies and hormone imbalances. Which made her act borderline, add in the fact that her main person she sought advice was her narcissistic mother(yeah good times).
Well we separated in February, she filed for divorce and a non contact order. During that time we both did our best to improve our lives. She did a bit of counseling and started to hang out with her friends more. She also read many books on self help. As for me I went to therapy every week some times 2 times, went back to my favorite interest, kickboxing, and finally opened up to my friends about my life. Also I got a kick ass job where the people are amazing and supportive(what a difference that can make). So while doing these changes we didn't contact each other for 2 and half weeks maybe more. She called me two weeks ago but I didn't pick up the phone because of the non contact order(im too pretty for jail). Finally I received an email from her lawyer saying we could talk to "arrange" getting my belongings from her place.
Well this gave us an opening to talk and see how we are doing. We met that night and spoke about how we are doing and what changes have ben made. It was obvious that both of us had improved. She became more patient and I became more, well me. Happy and open, to sum it up.
We basically were with each other every day for two weeks, I even helped her pack and move to her new place(which was very hard but since that is the decision we made together I went with it) and things were fucking amazing. We had a few tests, but I could tell that I have changed myself, I was very codepandant and had issues of running from fights. Any time we had an issue I was up front and supportive...until yesterday. When we got to church she got upset because my dog pissed on the carpet at the house im staying at, and to her it became the end of the world. We would never see each other because the dog might piss again(its hard to wrap my head around her thoughts but I try as hard as I can...im sure I can be hard to read also) No matter how hard I try to come up with ideas, she would try to find something wrong with them..she didn't want any solutions just problems. Well we took off from the church parking lot since she wanted to go-later claiming she was hangry and that's why it happened.
What im trying to get out in my super long rambling---I noticed how great we were when we focused time on ourselves and became mentally healthy, but after spending much time together and not being able to do the things that made us happy we began going back to our old pattern. Im looking for advice, granted I wont make it as the bible for me, but is it worth still trying on this? Should we take a long break then try to work on it? We saw a therapist on Thursday and we knew we would have struggles but at the first one it straight to the crapper. I love this woman more than anything but I don't want to get hurt any more and I don't want her to hurt either. I know were both pretty emotionally amped up and that could be making it a challenge. Its hard having a taste of awesomeness and then going this route. | We have been together for a year, had hard times but I have had more better times...had our first real fight doing the separate living but staying married..do we trudge through or stop? | [

I was driving back from a university regatta (crew race) in Philly on a stormy afternoon back in November 2010. Rain was down-pouring and we were driving with 6 people in my friends beat up red cutlass supreme Oldsmobile. We were driving up from Philly to N.E.P.A and I was in the back with 3 others and our arms were wrapped around each others shoulders to provide more room. I decided to take a nap because I was exhausted from the morning so I fell asleep on my friend Kazu's shoulder. About half hour later I wake up to the car rumbling. I start screaming immediately, not even knowing what was going on, slowly open my eyes and yell "Mark keep it steady!! Mark Control it!". Mark wasn't even driving. My friend Zane was, and when I looked out the windshield, the car is hydroplaning down the freeway and we were sliding sideways facing the grass on the right hand side. The only words out of his mouth were "SHIT, SHIT!!!!". We must have skid and fishtailed 3-4 times and he tried whipping the wheel left and right to stabilize the car but we were heading right towards the right hand side guard rail. Within this whole 10 second ordeal I manage to peak at the speedometor thinking to myself "Well If I hit this rail at 40~MPH It would be so bad. I thought this was for sure going to be it. The car was not stopping because it was so old and the guard rail was getting closer; to make things worse, the guard rail was the start of it so it was coming out of the ground and i figured if we hit it we were going to flip. As we slid towards the rail the car managed to "bounce" a few times and regain traction. We stopped literally 2 inches from the rail. All at once we looked at each other and made sure we were okay. We all got out to collect ourselves in the pouring rain, shitting ourselves, thinking, "we almost just died". 3 Cars ended up stopping to make sure we were okay. Worst part about the experience was we couldn't even do anything besides collect ourselves and then continue back to school. The last thing I remember was my asian friend saying "Heh, this would have made one hell of a story; 6 kids dead in hydroplane accident...fuck". We all got back to school and it made one heck of a story to drink to that night. | Hydroplaned coming back from a race, almost smashed into a guardrail and now I'm terrified of driving fast in inclement weather. | [

It takes a lot of drinking for me to get a buzz on piss beer. A couple of strong IPA's? Now you're talking. It tastes great, supports a smaller brewery, and is potentially cheaper when you look at the alcohol per ounce per dollar.
If you're making an argument for the cheapest way to get drunk, box wine wins by a long shot. | Be smart and frugal, not a cheapass. | [

STICK WITH SCHOOL
Seriously, you should follow through.
Even if you are not a top student, you are there, and finishing means more dollars for you than being in retail.
Even if you achieve your stated goal:
>My goal is to be a certified HVAC mechanic and do that for a few years, then find a contract position (preferably a school or major office building). Something with a pension and/or great benefits
You will be at a facility.
My experience, as a contractor, who comes in and solves HVAC problems for different facilities, is that the facilities guys often have a passing knowledge of HVAC.
Most of them realize that knowing more makes them look good to their bosses, so they are often looking to us, the high paid problem solvers, for advice on learning more. That or they will proudly announce that they just passed their EPA certification.
I don't mean to shit on facilities guys, I'm just trying to illustrate my main point:
You don't have to be #1.
You can be near the bottom and still be very attractive to many facilities.
Add to your resume, a little plumbing, or carpentry, or electrical, or small engine repair, or what ever you can do. Facilities guys do it all, so a broad scope of skills with an education in HVAC puts you on the short list. | stick with it for $
Edit: this came across as arrogant. Sorry, I respect all you facility guys and gals. | [

And I was having a pissy day at this point, so I wanted to tell him to shove it. I said, "dude, don't say that shit anymore, it's pissing me off." I continued to speak, and I said in a louder voice, "that would be like me saying to a cancer survivor, 'OH, I HOPE YOU GET CANCER AGAIN, HURHURHUR'". After that, I had about 15 people in my social studies class glare at me. I didn't know most of them, so they though I was a huge douche while I tried to explain myself, but I really couldn't.

Hello, /r/CrusaderKings!
First of all, [here's what the world looks like now.](
My character is the King of Ireland (primary title), Wales, Brittany, King, Portugal, Aquitaine, and Jerusalem. I've been grooming his son produced 5 children.
Now, here's the interesting bit: the previous ruler (my current ruler's dad) remarried in his 70s, and produced a son with his new Mongol wife. [This son,]( the half-brother to my current ruler, but much younger, had a weak claim on the Ilkhanate Empire, which at this point has become fairly weak after a long conflict with the Golden Horde that nearly wiped out it's even spawned troops. When the Khan died and left a 9 year old on the throne, I decide to push my half-brother's claim on Ilkhanate even though he wouldn't become my vassal. Long story short, I won fairly easily, and my half-brother is now the Emperor of Ilkhanate.
Now, the question is should I continue with my original plan, and have my son inherit my kingdoms, or should I leave them to my half-brother, the Emperor of Ilkhanate? Both my son and his wife and excellent (well for me anyway) stats, and decent enough traits. My half-brother has very good stats as well. His wife, on the other hand, has crappy stats, but a strong claim on Rus. If I successfully claimed Rus, my empire would take up much of modern day Russia, which is neat.
For the confused:
[My son.](
[My son's wife.](
[My half brother](
[My half brother's wife](
I'm leaning towards my half brother, but I thought it would be nice to hear from /r/CrusaderKings before making my decision. :D | My son and his wife have bitchin' stats, decent traits, 5 little tikes running around. My half-bro's a frickin emperor with pretty good stats + traits. His wife's a duchess and has a strong claim on Rus, but her stats are not fat. | [

I've told this story a dozen times, but I don't care. In 11th grade I was reading Macbeth like everyone else does. One thing most High School English teachers like to do is pretend they're interdisciplinary and start teaching the history surrounding their books. They're almost always bad at it. Now me, the history nerd that I was, resented it. However I usually was able to sit through their attempts at teaching the info. However during my Macbeth unit I simply couldn't.
So we sit down in class for the predictable lesson plan, when my teacher starts up with "Macbeth is set in the 17th century Scotland..." now for those of you who know your history, that should be enough for you. For those of you that don't, she's completely and utterly wrong. Macbeth was written in 17th Century, not set. It was set in the 11th Century. So me being the good student that I was kept quiet. I didn't want to embarrass her. So I waited. At the end of class after everyone had left I went up to her and said quietly "Uh Mrs. moron , I just wanted to let you know that you were wrong about the date. Macbeth isn't set in the 17th Century, it's probably the 11th or 12th Century." I wasn't exactly sure, but I knew enough about British history to know that that was probably the time period it was from. Now instead of saying "Oh okay, thanks." she goes "Oh no, see Shakespeare was writing the Macbeth story as an alternate history set in the 17th century." The fuck ?
So I just nodded my head and said "Oh... Okay..." and left. But oh no I wasn't done. I went home and got on the vast swath of information that is the internet. I quickly got enough proof, and even went so far as to get info from Cliffnotes which backed me up (the version we were reading was published by Cliffnotes (I know...)). So confident in my success I approached her before class and said "Mrs. Moron I did some research and you're wrong. Shakespeare was definitely not writing the story set in the 17th century, as that was when he was writing it." She looked at me, and without missing a beat said "Hegs94, you clearly have a personal problem with me. If you want we can talk about this after class in the office we can." I just shook my head and said "No, I have no personal issues with you. It's just you are teaching false information." To top it all off, we eventually had a test where one of the questions was "What was the setting of Macbeth" and the only option that included Scotland was "17th Century Scotland". Fuck that chick. | Dumb English teacher doesn't understand history. | [

Sorry if this is garbled and hard to comprehend. I don't know what to do. I have two big questions I was hoping you could help me with r/relationships.
For those who've been abused. what made you realize you were in an abusive relationship and what helped you leave?
My mom tells me she can't leave because she loves my dad. He's her first and only love and they've been married for 25 years. She does everything for him and he expects these things. The last time he got sick she wasn't in the country, he won't let go and repeats that she doesn't take care of him.
On their 25th anniversary she asked for a sweet email, and only that, because she knew that she wasn't getting anything else. He was going out of town that day “because the airplane ticket was cheaper”. She didn't get any contact and my dad lied to her and said it got deleted. That day he arranged to meet his old high school girlfriend. Which he sends sweet letters to and confessed his love for before and complains about my mom to. My mom found this all out by reading his emails, a habit she started after the other two women.
For those of you who have had friends or parents who were the abuser in a relationship, were you able to help them see what they were doing? Is there anyway I can bring about empathy from my dad?
I want to hope my dad's not a psychopath. He cares about me deeply and he takes good care of his relatives and friends. He's generous with his money, to the point where he has gotten tricked and taken advantage of. He mentors his friend's kids.
It's as if there's a nasty side of him reserved for my mom. He is emotionally manipulative, he berates her for being stupid and generally has low respect for her. he sometimes calls from out of nowhere to accuse my mom of emotionally cheating on him and just to agitate her, talking about the other women.
I've seen him kick a door into her, and I've come into their bedroom after hearing loud banging noises to find her on the ground. My mom confessed to me that he's raped her.
He lies about his cheating when confronted, until my mom brings out the evidence. When my mom told him this time how hurt she was, he didn't say anything empathetic and he apologized with an I'm sorry and said “don't be so mad”. He said that if she was less suspicious he wouldn't be talking to this other woman like this and that she doesn't take care of him. He says it isn't cheating, he hasn't done anything physical.
They had the entire fight in front of me because it's gotten so normal now. And this is actually things getting better. I remember a fight from my childhood where my mom was crying because she wasn't allowed to leave the house.
He treats her like a maid, yells at her and is very entitled. Though after each time this happens he'll act sweet and buy flowers and do gestures. My mom says she can't leave because she loves him, but I can't help feeling it's Stockholm syndrome. | my dad is probably abusive and has raped my mom and confessed and proposed to other women. My mom won't leave because she loves him. I don't know how to convince my mom to leave or how to help my dad see what he's doing.
We're all on vacation together right now and this is the only chance I get of one on one time with any of them; me being a college student and my dad running a company, I don't see them often anymore.
Though a good thing that's happened recently is that I got them to write and sign me a promise for a marriage counseling session as my birthday present and I'm hoping they'll go. I've been encouraging them to go but my dad always said he was too busy.
I wish I wasn't involved as I was in all this. Anytime anything happens my mom has to talk to me because she doesn't have anyone she can tell. And my parents stopped making attempts to not fight in front of us a long time ago. I'm just hoping I can help in some way and it's not entirely selfless thing. An entire life living in this and I don't want to be in this anymore, I can't seem to have normal relationships because I get paranoid of my partner and I m anxious and have bouts of depression. I just want them to get better and I can get better too. I can't bear the thought of my mom having this as the closest thing to love she's ever going to know. | [

First year of college, my roommate and I both had the hots for our neighbors. So one night we are drunk and go knock on their door looking to party - turns out they're also drunk. So we invite them over, one thing leads to another, and the dude I am into ends up humping me a shitload against the doorknob of my room. I can't remember what happened with my roommate but I don't think she got any. As for me, my dude and I were about to get down when it becomes apparent he is way too inebriated to perform at all, so I just let him pass out. Fast forward to the next morning, I have a HUMONGOUS bruise on my ass where he was grinding me against the doorknob. Biggest, baddest, longest-lasting bruise I've ever had. | me and roommate get drunk, invite over hot neighbors, I get humped against a doorknob leading to a massive bruise but never got the peen cuz brother was too wasted to perform. Disappointment all around. | [

Co2 is not the only greenhouse gas, nor are greenhouse gases the only factor affecting the climate.
However, despite other factors that may have affected Co2 levels and temperatures during other geologic time periods, over the only periods when we have direct data on atmospheric Co2 levels, using ice core data, there is an unambiguous record of cycles of rising and falling Co2 levels aligned with the ice ages of the Quaternary period (the most recent 1.8 million years).
That some other factor caused the earth to heat or cool during an earlier geologic period does not disprove the observed correlation in our current time period, especially when there is such a direct correlation in the gradual increase of both over the last two centuries (after the industrial revolution). | Co2 isn't the only factor that causes climate change. That doesn't mean it doesn't affect it at all, and it certainly doesn't disprove that it is currently one of the primary agents responsible for the recent rise in global temperatures. | [

I grew up in Hawaii (Oahu), and spent my wild college days there as well. Some of my new friends from the mainland came up with the idea to drop loads of LSD and trip balls on this "special beach that we just found." They didn't know the name of the beach or any of the surrounding area, so we (my roommates and I) just followed them there.
Oh, shit. This is AD's beach. You don't party here. Every party that has ever been thrown here has been busted up by the cops. You don't do acid if you might get busted by the cops.
I have no idea how this happened, but even after I tried to persuade the group not to party here, I ended up carrying firewood and coolers full of beer out to the beach. We passed a couple of parked vans, which I really didn't like. There was no one else around, which I also really didn't like.
Everyone gathered around and dropped 2-3 hits of acid apiece. We piled the firewood up, doused it with lighter fluid, and the second the match hit the bonfire, 4 or 5 ATVs come rolling over the dunes from every direction. FUCK! How did I end up here again?
The cops sat us down for a lecture about keeping the beach clean, frisked everybody, and let us go one by one. Luckily, I was one of the first to get frisked and had nothing incriminating on my person, and there was no way for them to know that in 20 minutes my brain would be liquid. The minutes leading up to my release were torture.
Two of my three roommates were released with me, and we hurried back to the car. The third roommie (and unfortunately, the one who usually lost his shit on acid) was detained because they found his pocket knife. If we didn't leave NOW, I wouldn't make it home. It felt shitty, but we had to GO. Things were gonna look really wobbly really soon.
I drove as quickly as I could along a cliffside road at night. By the time I got home, the drugs were practically in full swing and everything looked like faces on rainbow colored fire. I was giddy that we made it back okay, and endlessly worried for my detained roommate.
Throughout the night, friends slowly trickled in our door. In the end, no one was arrested, as the cops were mainly concerned with keeping the beach clear. My roommate even got his pocket knife back (cops in Hawaii can be really friendly if you just level with them.) The party continued at our house with no further incidents.
I later found out that the cooler I was siting on when the cops came to frisk me was FULL of drugs that I never wanted anything to do with (lots and lots of coke, heroin, ketamine, and let's not forget the 200-hit dropper of highly potent LSD). I thought it was just beer.
That was a long time ago and you won't catch me doing anything that dumb ever ever ever again. I'm no longer in touch with any of the people I partied with that night. | Dropped two hits of acid on a beach and was immediately shut down by the cops. Had to drive home before the drugs kicked in. Almost didn't make it. Found out later it could've been MUCH worse than I ever imagined. | [

I just hit "random". This is what popped up. Not much there. Wiki, like an encyclopedia, has a little info about a lot of things (and a lot about particularly myopic topics, often current events), and very little depth. I would fault a college or graduate student as much for using just an encyclopedia as wikipedia. There has to be more meat than that. This information didn't appear out of nowhere. If you think the wiki editors are working hard, sit down in a lab and absorb how much works goes into writing one sentence with any sense of certainty.
If we were happy with just wikipedia, we would have information so easily accessible to us that we forget to think critically, we accept what is said without error checking ourselves or our sources (how often do you follow the wiki citations? I hope it really is often), and then you'll believe anything you read. And that's a dangerous world to live in, let alone a poor one in which to do research. | wikipedia sources | [

I'm a sixth form student at a very academic state school in the UK. Alex joined in September this year, as our sixth form intake is a lot larger than the rest of the school. To continue to next year, you need to get three Ds in your AS levels in the subjects you want to continue. Although results day is a while off, it's certain that Alex didn't get those grades.
However, this is because of genuine extenuating circumstances: Alex has diagnosed depression and OCD, with a history of suicide attempts. His mum has had breast cancer and, more recently, a brain tumour, and was hospitalised for a lot of this year. She also has a fractured spine and is hence physically disabled, and Alex and his younger sister care for her.
Alex is an extremely bright student who should be capable of straight As, if it wasn't for the fact that he can't cope with exams. He completes all his homework, does well in homework and classwork, and tries hard in lessons. He has never been in trouble, not even minor instances, except for getting low grades in his mocks - he was told to work harder despite getting excellent reports and a brilliant homework record. Nobody questioned the discrepancy between exam grades and classwork and homework effort.
Despite all of this, they are sticking by their entrance requirements and have said it is "highly unlikely he'll be able to resit year twelve" and he is definitely not allowed into year 13. This is also despite the fact that they allow exceptions for physical illnesses around exam time.
Obviously, I am beyond angry at this, and I'm prepared to do everything I can to show this up. If they kick him out, does that count as discrimination? I would like to kick up as much a fuss as I possibly can, but I'm also aware that this might forfeit my place, which I would like to avoid because as much as I hate it, it is the only school locally which does a levels, and I would like to apply to university in September. Should I involve external media and the internet? How do I start as big a campaign as possible? | my school are discrimanting pricks, what do I do to stop a student with mental health problems being kicked out? | [

Imagine an antique car, say the Model T. Open it up, strip out the entire internal combustion engine, exhaust, all of that good stuff, and instead replace it with a snug magic box, your Animated Object. A wizard has used magic to fabricate masterwork gears for all the important parts so the industrial technological level at the time shouldn't matter.
The Animate Object consists of a block the size and shape of a car engine, from which its only moving parts are the crank shaft, flywheel, drive gear in the transmission? (I don't fully understand how car engine's work) which all connect to the usual car bits that they should. They spin not by combustion but by the magical power of Animate Object, which produces limitless power with no waste along the following guidelines:
Large Animated Object: Str 22, which equals about 5000lb of push force.
Medium Animated Object: Str 14, which equals about 520lb of push force.
Assume each engine has spent 2 construction points on an increased move speed, giving them a base speed of 40ft with which it spins it's drive gear. The Animated Object Engine's only task is to take the Run action each turn so at maximum its drive gear spins at a rate of 40ft*3/6s, or 20ft per second, with the size of the engine determining the torque.
My question now is how do I convert this further to determine the RPM of the magic engine, and then determine the MPH it can drive, and how much weight it can carry without slowing down while doing so.
I understand I need to know the size of the flywheel(?) to figure out the RPM from just the spin speed alone, but I don't know know enough about cars to guestimate the radius the flywheel should be to take this any further.
And the reason I don't just Animate Object the whole entire car into one thing is two fold: Cost; Huge sized animated objects are far more expensive, and Speed; the move speed is set at 30-40ft, so I am trying to figure out if this method makes a faster car. | Combustion engine replaced with a magic engine that can exert 520lb or 5000lb of force at 20ft/s, how many MPH can it achieve?

Met a girl. Sweet. caring, cute, beautiful... The whole package. Got to know her better amazing friends, awesome family, talked daily on the phone and texted. She'd call me up about small stupid things to ask my opinion... I thought it was cute. We became best friends and would laugh at the same things and really really enjoyed each others company. One day we went out and had an amazing time. Went to the mall and everything helped her shop. It was just me and her felt amazing. Had butterflies in my stomach all day. Finally got the courage to ask her to become my girlfriend after all of that happened I was pretty sure I was going to get a "yes" my friends and peers would almost always ask if we were both dating... The answer thus far had been "nah, we're just friends". It was the day I knew I had to tell her how I felt. I knew I couldn't hold it in any longer above all I was sacred for any other guy to swoop in and take this amazing girl if i didn't make a move fast enough. We were hanging out in my car... I started to tell her how I felt. Midway through she takes her hands and covers her eyes and looks down. (I'd never told a girl something like this so I didn't know how she'd react) I ket talking until I was done... She tried to say something but words wouldn't come out. She started to mumble-- at that point I told her to wait and think about it and get back to me within a week. We shook her head and then I dropped her home. Days...weeks...months went by and she never once replied to me and told me "yes" or "no" it tore me up inside. Few months later we met up and she told me she wasn't interested. By that point I was pretty fucking heartbroken and knew that she didn't reciprocate those feelings. The worst part is that we are in a close knit community and our friend circle overlaps. I see her few times a week at social gatherings and other events which fucking sucks. I try not to but can't help to glance across her from the room... Her soft eyes... Dark and perfectly straightened hair, and her illuminating smile. Now she's with some fucking douchebag who i know will end up cheating in her. It hurts to watch people around me smile and have thugs going perfect in their lives- while I'm just sitting here typing this up. It shitty the way things turned out but everyone and then I think back to that day we went out shopping... How good things were... I become happy and relive the past. Even though I know it will never come again. Just that memory alone is all I have of hers-- that was the best thing that happened to me within this past year. | heartbroken. | [

Yo! Sender and frand of OP here. To clarify the "too big" comment; I only got to use the device for about 5 minutes. My immediate reaction was, "I fucked up by not getting the iPhone 6 Plus. I should return my 4.7 iPhone 6 and get this one." I went back and used the phone again for another 10 minutes or so. Put it in my pocket, trolled through some apps, filmed more 240 FPS video (so good), etc etc. We even put a couple different cases on the phone to see how it felt. I left that experience happy to have ordered the 4.7 inch unit. And expect it to be a much more comfortable experience for me. But big up to anyone who ordered the iPhone 6 Plus, it's epic. | iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are sick. The 5.5" unit is huge.
Edit: It's a shitty photo, but here's another image of me trying to (jokingly) compare the size of the phone to my colleague's head. [ | [

I recently emailed Gateway (Computer company) about continuous problems I am having with my laptop. I'm about to paste the exact letter I sent them. It's going to be quiet obvious I am showing an upset tone in this, but please understand my laptop brings me outrageous stress, and I was very unhappy when I emailed them. So here's the email:
I'm not exactly sure where to start off, but i'll try my best. About a year ago, I bought a NV79 Gateway laptop for around 600 dollars. I chose to upgrade to an HD Graphics card for some extra money, so I could play games and such a bit more smoothly. Well, I should have just saved my money on that, since the most simplest games I play run just terribly. In any game I play, I must run with the ABSOLUTE WORST graphic settings, which really alter's my game play. You may be thinking, "well this isn't a gaming laptop", and that is true! However, when my 5 year old vista desktop with no special graphics card that cost 600 dollars at the time can run the same settings the same way, that's where I draw my line.
Anyways, that's only the start of the problems. My laptop continually and constantly overheats. If I leave it on for 2 hours it'll overheat, shut down, and take 10 mins to restart. You could guess how much of a humongous pain this is. It will happen whenever. If i'm doing emails, games, documents, etc, it will overheat and shut off. Imagine you're reading this, and then everything shuts down, and it takes another 10 mins to get back to it; it'd get annoying huh? I've even put my laptop over a cooling tray, and honest to god it still overheats. I'm not 100% positive it's because of overheating, but I don't know what else could be the reason, and upon looking it up I've found many people's NV79 have overheated before. So let's put that aside, and go on to the next topic. I was unable to use Microsoft Office 2007. Why you may ask? Well,
because my code on the bottom of my laptop on the Office sticker is invalid. I have tried it dozens of times, just to see it say invalid over and over again. I'm not sure if someone guessed it correctly, or If you just gave me a completely corrupted code, who knows. So, being a student, I had to go out, spend another 80 dollars on what should have came with my laptop. More money down the drain for this thing. At least that code works! Finally, I've come to my final problem, which i'll let you know is self caused! Two of my keys on my keyboard, (T and Y), Have broken off due to cleaning. Upon mailing support, they wanted to charge me over 100 dollars due to my warranty ending. You guys couldn't just send me two keys? So, for the last 6 months, i'm typing "T" and "Y" on the hard bottom.
(Even the rubber came off). It's quite obvious I most likely won't ever being doing business with Gateway due to me being very disappointed. I look forward in hearing anything you'd like to share with me.

"content": "I recently emailed Gateway (Computer company) about continuous problems I am having with my laptop. I'm about to paste the exact letter I sent them. It's going to be quiet obvious I am showing an upset tone in this, but please understand my laptop brings me outrageous stress, and I was very unhappy when I emailed them. So here's the email: \n I'm not exactly sure where to start off, but i'll try my best. About a year ago, I bought a NV79 Gateway laptop for around 600 dollars. I chose to upgrade to an HD Graphics card for some extra money, so I could play games and such a bit more smoothly. Well, I should have just saved my money on that, since the most simplest games I play run just terribly. In any game I play, I must run with the ABSOLUTE WORST graphic settings, which really alter's my game play. You may be thinking, \"well this isn't a gaming laptop\", and that is true! However, when my 5 year old vista desktop with no special graphics card that cost 600 dollars at the time can run the same settings the same way, that's where I draw my line.\nAnyways, that's only the start of the problems. My laptop continually and constantly overheats. If I leave it on for 2 hours it'll overheat, shut down, and take 10 mins to restart. You could guess how much of a humongous pain this is. It will happen whenever. If i'm doing emails, games, documents, etc, it will overheat and shut off. Imagine you're reading this, and then everything shuts down, and it takes another 10 mins to get back to it; it'd get annoying huh? I've even put my laptop over a cooling tray, and honest to god it still overheats. I'm not 100% positive it's because of overheating, but I don't know what else could be the reason, and upon looking it up I've found many people's NV79 have overheated before. So let's put that aside, and go on to the next topic. I was unable to use Microsoft Office 2007. Why you may ask? Well,\nbecause my code on the bottom of my laptop on the Office sticker is invalid. I have tried it dozens of times, just to see it say invalid over and over again. I'm not sure if someone guessed it correctly, or If you just gave me a completely corrupted code, who knows. So, being a student, I had to go out, spend another 80 dollars on what should have came with my laptop. More money down the drain for this thing. At least that code works! Finally, I've come to my final problem, which i'll let you know is self caused! Two of my keys on my keyboard, (T and Y), Have broken off due to cleaning. Upon mailing support, they wanted to charge me over 100 dollars due to my warranty ending. You guys couldn't just send me two keys? So, for the last 6 months, i'm typing \"T\" and \"Y\" on the hard bottom.\n(Even the rubber came off). It's quite obvious I most likely won't ever being doing business with Gateway due to me being very disappointed. I look forward in hearing anything you'd like to share with me. \n I then ended up getting an email, rather fast, telling me that i'll have to spend ANOTHER 199 dollars to get it fixed up. My question is rather simple. What would you do in a situation like this? I feel that charging the costumer for a corrupted product is completely unfair, however, i'm not sure if all companies run this way.

I have been thinking a lot about what my ideal to-do system would look like. And I realized that what I want is a complete knowledge-management system that happens to have the capability to inform me of tasks that need to be done. From what I have read up in the org-mode manual, it seems like a lot of these features at least exist in some form within org-mode.
Here are the things I want this system to be able to do:
Collection
I want to be able to quickly and effortlessly add any thought that enters my head, any piece of information I am provided, and any interesting fact, file, picture, email, etc. that I may encounter and may need to at some point refer back to. I think that it is silly we make distinctions between information by format. I want a system that doesn't differentiate between text messages and emails: all I care about is the information inside.
Org-agenda has some sort of quick-capture ability that also includes the capacity to setup templates as well, so this feature seems covered.
Organization
I want to be able to put all those items into lists, and an item should be able to exist multiple lists simultaneously. For example, if I have a list of all homework assignments, and another list of math assignments, I want a single math assignment to be present on both lists.
I want to be able to make lists of lists arbitrarily deep. Essentially, sub-tasks, so a large to-do can be broken down into smaller and smaller tasks until the tasks cannot be broken down any further, giving you "next action items". I know that org-mode has the outlining ability, which does work as a form of lists of lists.
Filtering, querying, etc
I want to be able to search all of the items I have entered and view a list of items matching certain criteria. And I want to be able to save that query for reuse later. I know org-mode has the ability to filter for items with TODO and due dates, but I want to be able to go a little further, something like "show all reference material related to calculus or differential equations", or "show all pdf files related to school".
Focusing on what is important
A key thing for me is the ability to hide everything I am not immediately working on . I can't have a gigantic .org file full of a thousand miscellaneous items sitting in front of my eyes, even if you can fold all the headings. When I capture something, it needs to go away and be totally out of sight and out of mind until I am ready to deal with it. I want to be able to deal exclusively with the particular items I need to, and when I am done editing have them vanish out of sight once more.
In my head, I envision all of this working as a node graph, with a big collection of items which can be reorganized on a whim by adding and changing the relationships between them. Every piece of information or data would be its own node, which I could organize and reorganize on a whim by adding edges between them representing relationships. | Can org-mode be used as a node graph of information? | [

When I first came out my dysphoria was bad on the daily, and anything could trigger me. I was an emotional land mine. After I got on hormones a lot of the inexplicable dysphoria went away, which was probably because the panic of knowing T was still changing me was gone.
But social triggers will still bad. But after about 6 months hormones I didn't feel like an imposter anymore. I became really really happy with who I was, and was more hopeful that distressed on what was to come. The last time I was clocked was painfully embarassing, where a trio of lesbians were playing "spot the transgender" and very loudly all came to the agreement that I was trans.
Super embarrassing.
But that was 4 months ago (4ish months HRT). The only time I get triggered these days and have bad dysphoria are the ones where I interact with my mother. But thats because she is a horrible person. | tapered when I started HRT, all but vanished at 6 months hrt, mother still triggers the heck out of me though. | [

stop, as pointed out before by some other member of this sub, the old music app can still be launched via NFC.
this is what you get when you do so, only thing bit working in this app is playlists. So any ideas how I can get this on my start screen? I tried to use an pre 8.1 shortcut app but the shortcut would just prompt me to install some other music player... I will try to read the tag and make a launcher from it's information, but until then: any other ideas reddit?! | how to pin old music app to start in WP 8.1 | [
