2023.05.30 11:01 Mid-Night1991 TDP Ally in old games.
I can not understand how the processor works in old games? For example, if I want to play HL2, do I need to manually set a lower TDP so that the device is less discharged? Or will the system automatically adjust to the needs of the device? And if I play from an outlet, does it turn out that by default the processor runs at maximum power? Explain plz.

2023.05.30 11:00 BarrieTheShagger Dear DBD community, This is not a competitive game.
I've been playing this game on and off since launch and if you're a casual player like me, you'll know how awful it is when a new "meta" comes out, or when an overpowered glitch happens and you've had no fun because you didn't know about it because you have a life outside this game.
Far too many people in this community believe everyone should know every perk by its image, should know which tiles to avoid and which to use, they expect you to have a constant influx of knowledge about this game by following all the TTV/YT players and that if you're not playing to win, you're playing to troll other players.
This is not CSGO, its not LOL, it's not Overwatch, you didn't have a good game cause you camped the hatch, you didn't have a good game cause you hook camped or Gen rushed, what you did was ruin someone else's limited time.
It's not like this is a rant just for the sake of it, this community is well known to be toxic, and its no wonder why people say its going to die every few weeks (it's not) it's because this community is self destructive. Not that I'm blaming all of you, many of you will be like myself, but for those of you who are taking this game way too seriously, thinking you need to SWF gen rush, or hook camp with all the Meta perks and use exploits, just stop, nobody is impressed, you're not being watched by anyone who cares about your matches, and all you're doing is being selfish, you are actively harming the game, you're turning away new players and old ones, there is a reason TF2, Unreal tournament, Quake and other competitive games still have players, it's because the casual side is actually enjoyable and will keep those games (even with their small numbers) for many years to come.
I would like to say that actual competitive games like Fortnite, Fall Guys, Hunt Showdown and others, have far more relaxed player bases in the regular matchmaking than this game, even CSGO and COD do, mostly cause of ranked vs unranked match making, but you get that toxicity in this game is a 50/50 at a bare minimum while other games it's like a 20/80.
To end I would like to say that the main people who should be pushing this point isn't some random on Reddit, it should be the influencers who play this game to sizeable audiences, it should be the Devs who should instead of constantly trying to reign in this community with nerfs and buffs, they should be punishing behaviour that pushes players away, it's taken so long for us to get a solution to hook camping. I believe that they should rework the MMR and pipping system to encourage players to look for more fun, less about winning, as it currently stands survivors see dying as a loss when in realty getting to last gen is a great thing, you had a great match, as a killer 2ks really shouldn't be seen as a good match, 3ks should be, or they need to punish survivors for focusing on themselves, or give killers more pips/BP for hooking less survivors, as it currently stands a steamroll in either teams side feels awful and it leads to less skilled players sticking with survivor to be carried and more toxic not necessarily skilled players to be killer because the casual ones will feel like DCing when 3 gens pop in 2 minutes with zero hooks.

2023.05.30 11:00 EuleStein Undermining Hierarchies - Biblical Meandering(?)
Many things are true of this fleshly life that are horrifyingly false in the new age of Christ. Hierarchies, fleshly differences are immaterial. But how do we bring God’s kingdom on earth where many fleshly things are reality - like trading with money as opposed to genuine sharing, societal formalities, governments Christian, heathen or secular. Some of what I listed may shock the reader. This is because many Christians pick and choose what part of worldly life is to be the focus of their judging eyes and the rest in the dark of blissful ignorance. Even the hierarchies of slavery used to be on this list! But why didn’t Paul declare a revolution to end slavery? Is it not immoral to force debtors to pay you by taking away their human rights?
But Paul doesn’t. Instead Paul shows how Christianity fights not by direct confrontation, but by turning things upside down. The higher must sacrifice for the lower. Are you a leader? Serve your followers. Are you a slave-owner? Sacrifice for your slave like Christ.
For there is only one hierarchy - Christ over all. And each person higher up the hierarchy must imitate him. By doing so, the very purpose of hierarchies vanishes, to the point where hierarchies exist in name only and can be dissolved with token resistance from the reformed society.
Let’s bring this into perspective of the husband and wife. We know that Paul didn’t have to protect this hierarchy since it seemed so self-evident in the world. But then he adds a clincher to effectively undermine this hierarchy - if you are a husband and think yourself in a position of authority, you must love your wife the same way Christ who is head of the household of God died for their members. You must lay down your preferences for the subordinate. It is therefore quite ironic that men demand respect from women, even if they think they deserve it. Because if Christ is the standard on how to treat women, Christ never demanded respect or worship, though he accepted it. He strove to earn our worship by dying for us, even though we were the guilty party. We owe him our very lives! If a man wishes to be a servant leader, he must serve his wife; he must wash his wife’s feet. He must relinquish his hierarchical rights like Christ did and not hold on to them. In his culture, he may have the privilege of the last word, but he is not obligated to his culture; he must strive to win his wife over and not force his opinions or decisions on her. Because the followers of Christ reign by serving their peers and subordinates, alongside their superiors. Also they recognize that their cultural privileges for their gender or status are truly null and void in Christ, and all men stand equal before Him. However do note, that I am only observing how to apply this verse to various contexts, but I will admit not having any expertise in marital counselling.
Of course, Christ challenges hierarchies differently. Now imagine, if the whole world becomes one family in Christ. Would there be any necessity for money? Would governments, borders or nations need to exist? Granted that the democratic nation state is better than a despotic monarchy, isn’t it still far from ideal to us Christians?

2023.05.30 10:59 joregan22 Interpersonal qualm, unsure which sub to post to, help a girl out with some worldly advice
Am I an asshole for feeling uncomfortable when my flatmates boyfriend is over?
Okay, get this: I moved into a place local to my work (about a 10-20 minute drive) and I’m boarding with a 45-year-old lady. This lady is also my landlord. Shes nice and a tad immature, does drink a fair amount but that doesn’t bother me. Shes been off work for about 2 months and has a further 1.5 months off of work, because she slipped down the stairs in her home and broke a few small bones in her foot. This does mean she is home almost 24/7 and the house isn’t very big either, so as an introvert it feels a bit whelming to never have the place to myself. I, a 23-year-old female, work full time as a nurse and really appreciate quiet, down time when at home. My flatmate, also my landlord… sometimes has her crumby boyfriend over who gets loud when he drinks and is quite superficial. Am I the asshole for disliking this guy? I left my room one time when my flatmates mum was over and overheard her talking about how he mistreats her and gets verbally abusive when off the whiskey. Now, I have had some previous experience with some shitty dudes in my life but I can put things into perspective and rationalise pretty well. I just can’t help but feel uncomfortable around her boyfriend, its a gut feeling. As my flatmate is the landlord, she ultimately has the upper hand, but is it fair to ask her to at least give me a heads up for when this tool comes around? I’m pretty clean and respectful and uphold my end of the deal as a boarder. I live in Auckland, New Zealand and the rent here is pretty high, so living alone isn’t really an option. Would love to hear what y’all think you might do. Cheers

Hello fellow Redditors,
About us:
- I am a 33-year-old iOS developer with over 10 years of professional experience in the field.
- My wife is a 27-year-old QA engineer with 6 years of experience.

- Currently, I am citizen of Belarus, wife is citizen of Armenia. (I was born in Armenia too btw.)
Looking to Relocate to Germany while Working Remotely for Current UAE-based Company or another EU-country since we don't see my future in Belarus with current political situation. We believe this move will provide us with excellent career opportunities in future and a high standard of living. However, we are not sure if it will be easy to do, we couldn't find dirrect solutions in google, so if someone already did it before - will happy to hear an advice.I am not looking for new job since my current salary is above average in our field. And I'm not looking to move for example to Spain, even I like the country very much and my salary is way higher than average, cause I'm planning to stay and IT-market is much better in Germany right now.
Here are a few specific questions:
If the answer to the first question is negative - check PS.If the answer to the first question is positive:
Is it possible to get visa and work permit for software developer, working on company outside of Germany? If no - check "ps", otherwise:

2023.05.30 10:56 kimorthodontics Majority Of the People Have Stains on Their Teeth
 | submitted by kimorthodontics to u/kimorthodontics [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/8ear62jj5z2b1.jpg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=68df0ae7feb8177c21c9c826cb4c3a07ecaaff7d One such appliance that requires the use of 3D imaging technology is Invisalign. The dental expert provides the technical expert with the specification, but the technical expert is the one who puts it into practice. Both orthodontics and cosmetic dentistry employ the specification after that. These contemporary devices aid in the complete healing of the jaw and mouth. It shapes the face appropriately. We all talk about maintaining good dental hygiene, but the majority of us have no idea what it entails. The enamel is designed to endure a lifetime, so we shouldn't let our teeth rot while we are still alive. But, brushing and flossing do assist. Although the gums are the toughest and most resilient portion of the body, they can become fragile if adequate dental hygiene is not maintained. For this reason, it's crucial to get your teeth straightened by Porter ranch orthodontics using the right tools in the beginning. Even though it is impossible for humans to keep up with all that the modern world has to offer, we can at least keep up by knowing what is best for our families. Children should have their permanent teeth evaluated by a professional when they are seven years old so that they can begin wearing aligners even before their second set of molars begin to erupt. Maintaining clean teeth—rather than simply brushing them again because the toothbrush's bristles can't effectively reach every area of the mouth—is another technique to ensure that this occurs. Another option to guarantee good oral health is to have your teeth whitened by a professional who will also place plastic veneers so that the effect lasts a long time in addition to cleaning your teeth. Since the gums are still flexible and the jaws are still robust, is it possible that using aligners, the growing teeth can be straightened as they erupt? Porter ranch Invisalign are constructed of plastic and ceramic and are lighter than metal ones, orthodontics can provide the child aligners that are comfortable, very easy to manage, and more comfortable than other aligners. This is crucial since aesthetic dentists are aware that a person's diet and oral hygiene habits have an impact on how strong their jaws and gums are. Even minor tooth stains have an impact on enamel because they weaken the bond between the gums and teeth. However, orthodontists are the ones who can provide you with plastic aligners, which are the ones that can be a better option if you do not want to deal with lose wires in the mouth and heavy metal braces. You must be prepared for such a treatment not just physically but mentally as well, as it is very difficult to convince patients to wear the aligner regularly due to the fact that these appliances are too uncomfortable.

2023.05.30 10:56 marcobmartinez Glossier Balm Dotcom New Formula
balm dotcom has always been my holy-grail. i’ve had a cherry one since january and i’m scared to finish it because it’s my favorite, but it is running low, so i purchased birthday balm dotcom cause i thought everyone on this subreddit was exaggerating about how bad it was, but IT IS SOOO BADDDD!!!! 😭😭 i have to reapply every 15 minutes, and have almost finished the entire tube because of it. with the old formula my bdc’s would typically last me over 3 months! anyone saying that they genuinely like this new formula must lack lips, which would make sense, because glossier’s consumers are predominantly white, and white people tend to be lipless. the balm now evaporates almost instantly, and leaves my lips feeling more dry afterwards if anything. what is the point of them creating this new formula to make room for vegan people, if the lip balm does not even work the way a lip balm is supposed to!???? why not just produce both?? they need to stop prioritizing outdated lipstick, clothing, and merch, and just bring the old formula back. this one is god-awful.

2023.05.30 10:56 Prismquill A massive collection of fanfics worth reading
Italic - my notes on the fic.
Bold - absolute must-reads. Give them a shot, they're really worth your time.
The Galaxy Revolves at a Million Miles a Day (Around Me) - (Piett) Piett may have been the Admiral of the largest and most fearsome fleet of warships the galaxy had ever seen, but he was only one man. And one man could not change the fate of the galaxy. No matter how many chances the galaxy gave him. Medium fic.
Of Queens, Knights, and Pawns - (Leia) I went to sleep on the worst day of my life and woke to find myself in the past on the second worst day of my life. As experiences go, I don’t recommend it.
like a lazy ocean hugs the shore - (Fox, Fives) Groundhog Day!AU Fix-It where Fox finds himself stuck in a time loop after Vader kills him. Long fic.
Reprise - (Obi-Wan) Ben Kenobi dies aboard the Death Star in the year 0 BBY. He wakes up shortly thereafter in the Jedi temple in the year 41 BBY. Haunted by memories and regret, Ben must forge a new path for himself in the Jedi Order of his youth while navigating the murky waters of time travel. Crafting a better future from bitter experience is hard, but learning to heal is even harder. Major AU.
He Is the Chosen One - (Anakin) Darth Vader dies. Then, Anakin Skywalker wakes in the body of a dead slave woman in 31 BBY, a year before the Occupation of Naboo.
Second Hope - (Leia) “Apologies, Masters,” He says, panting for breath. “But I thought you should know - There’s a Sith in the Room of A Thousand Fountains.” Read this for the second installment, "A Second Chance."
Bad Code - (Anakin) Anakin gives himself a day to mourn. One day to cry and scream and curse the universe for being unfair. One day to stop missing Obi-Wan Kenobi. One shot.
Padawan Exchange - (Barriss) While Luminara Unduli and Ahsoka Tano are away on a mission, Anakin and Barriss form an unlikely duo on Coruscant. Barriss stumbles upon a sinister plot to harm Mon Mothma while Anakin tries to get away to spend time with Padmé. Takes place during the events of S01E09: Cloak of Darkness. One shot.
Another Way to Fall - (Barriss) Barriss Offee had many reasons to act as she did. Or none. Or just one. One shot.
lose me in the crowds at twighlight - (Padme, Han) Padme could already see the headlines: "Distinguished Senator from Naboo disrupts pleasant upper-class dining environment by trying to buy the Corellian street urchin who was robbing her a sandwich." One shot.
Pity - (Barriss) REPUBLIC HOLDING FACILITY EPSILON. CELL BLOCK A5-348. VISITOR ADMITTED: [Jedi Master Luminara Unduli]. One shot.
Sense of Direction - (Obi-Wan) On Tatooine, Obi-Wan has to learn how to come to terms with his new life, but first he must face his demons and get out of the desert alive. Heartbreaking. One shot.
seeds of darkness planted in you - (Leia, Ahsoka) Seven days following the success at the battle of Endor, as the Rebellion gets to work reclaiming former Imperial territory, Leia Organa discovers an hidden imperial outpost on Yavin IV with thirty-eight dead bodies massacred inside. There is only one survivor: a prisoner, one togruta woman with yellow eyes, trapped in an isolation cell, delirious and half-starved, whose identification documents have been completely wiped off all the records. One shot.
The Emperor Skywalker Conspiracy - (Luke) The Emperor is dead and so is Darth Vader. So. Uh. Who exactly inherits the Galactic throne? Or, the Holonet discovers the existence of one Luke Skywalker and promptly makes it a meme. I present you the one long rant of a lone blogger trying to disentangle the mystery behind Luke Skywalker and his maybe inheritance of the Empire. It's so high effort. One shot.
FIVE HUNDRED AND ONE THING THE MEMBERS OF THE 501ST LEGION OF THE GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO - (501st) Exactly what it says on the tin, folks. One shot.
submitted by Prismquill to SWFanfic [link] [comments]
Bold - absolute must-reads. Give them a shot, they're really worth your time.
Time Travel
Force of Many Sights - (Anakin) Sometimes second chances are harder than the first time around. My favorite Star Wars fic, it focuses on redeeming Darth Vader, how absolutely painful, difficult becoming a good person is, but it's still something worth trying. It's slow but it sets up Anakin's character so well. The character development is amazing. Longfic.The Galaxy Revolves at a Million Miles a Day (Around Me) - (Piett) Piett may have been the Admiral of the largest and most fearsome fleet of warships the galaxy had ever seen, but he was only one man.

2023.05.30 10:55 B26urn3r How should i feel about the way someone I love treated me? How should i feel about things that happen when a lot of alcohol is involved?
Thoughts after writing everything: I don't think any of this makes sense, I am not a great writer. This is half confession the other half question. I would scroll before you start. If you're not good with bad writing then you're probably gonna have an aneurysm, but I couldn't be bothered to go back and fix anything.
This is a gonna be a long one but it’s keeping me up again. im typing on my phone way too late when i have work tomorrow so ignore my mistakes.
also i tend to go on tangents so this is probably gonna be longer than pretty long, if you dont wanna commit to an actual novel then you probably wanna bail or you can half ass piece together the highlights idrc.
Let me preface this by saying this question has to do with an event that happened over a year ago but the person involved recently said bye and blocked me on just about everything besides maybe discord or groupme? maybe i’m just thinking about her because her boyfriend’s birthday was today or cause i saw a picture of her on her friend’s instagram but i’d like to think i’m doing well on doing better idk.
ig i’ll stop stalling and try to recall the series of events.
to start things off, the person in question who i’ll refer to as abby if needed was sort of my best friend? i had known her for the previous four fiveish years in high school and this was april of our freshman year of college. but yah I think she was the first friend i made when i got to high school. she pretty much adopted me first day and i also had a crush on her since day one but at the time she thought she was a lesbian so fml amiright.
well she came out as bi later in the year but nt everything was so clear cut and she didnt really show any interest so no real chance. anyways freshman year came and went, sophomore year we didnt have any classes together (and once again showed no interest in really talking to me when i tried) so i almost never talked to her but she went through quite some shit and most importantly came out of the year with a boyfriend who was actually a decent turned to great guy. a bit of an asshole on occassion but that’s part of the charm.
holy fuck im way off track, sorry if you’re reading this. mid junior year was when we got to be friends fairly quickly and then covid. senior year we were pretty great friends whatever. bam highschool background done. could have just said we were great friends but i know some of yall come for a short novel.
summer comes and she makes up and excuse or bails on maybe 10-15 plans. let me just say, this i a person i snapped and talked to almost every day for maybe the past year and a half. i am also very socially inept, more at this time. but most of what kept me blind was hope, and that held true until she peaced out a couple of months ago. hope that she would be good to me like she was to the rest of her friends. actually saw her once because i was swinging by to see a friend at the end of his shift and she was chilling out in the lot with some other friends. how lucky
anyways, nearing the end of the summer i asked if she wanted to go to the movies to watch a movie i though we might both like. she said she couldn't because of something she had to do with her dad or some bullshit and then she asked me a week later if i wanted to go to the movies. with a group of friends. I did not really want to go, she said the words you dont have to go if you dont want to. i still went anyways because i kinda wanted to see her after several months of being bailed on and i was kinda just upset. it was a shit movie, i didn't really care to talk to anyone else there. big mistake. she noticed and got on to me. then late the next day she sent me a snap, i didn't see it all that quickly so she also sent me a text telling me to open it. that was really unusual. I open it and she had asked if i like her. she had promised that things would be the same regardless. You know i fucked up. i don't really need to tell you what my answer was.
i realize now this doesn't have much relevance so im gonna be an awful novelist and skip over a bunch of context that probably has 5x more relevance and say abby was a bitch to me who hung out with our friends and didnt invite me when they came into town and univited me to her birthday the day of. with all of this she had everyone (everyone she and i both knew) in her corner and no one really gave a fuck about me. keep in mind too, this is what she is doing but not all so much what she is saying.
things were really really back and forth for a while. think sinx -1. bad then back to 0 then even worse then back to zero. it felt like recovering from a catastrophe every month and then wondering how you messed it up again and wishing you could try again but it only got harder.
we were doing fine for another tipping point and then Christmas came around and I said something again and things didnt fall apart but she kinda put me on the back burner for a while.
fuck i cant keep telling this story i thought it would help but it really doesn't explain anything and it's making me feel like shit. whateverf. here's the part that kinda fuckes me up the most
One day me and Abby are just getting back on decent terms. she still comes over to my apartment when my roommate/friend ig invites her and her roomate/friend. my friend decides he wants to have them over to watch some movies and he's worried it's gonna cause issues if im there so i decided i would go somewhere else.
i told one of my friends to get a bottle of dewar's and we're gonna watch some 80s movies he hasnt seen. we watched a movie, talked a little, and then he had to go to bed because hes a grad student and he had work or something to do tomorrow morning. I had about half of a fifth of dewar's at this point.
when i get home i say hi to Abby, her roommate, and my roommate and i planned to just pass through and go to bed at this point. my roommate and her roommate were kinda really flirting and everyone was drunk. Abby gives me this help me look and asks if i want to watch some movies. so of course i do the proper thing and go put my shit down, take another three shots of vodka, and head down to hang out with Abby. our roommates were making out and we couldnt stop them from doing what they want so 30 mins later we drive them to my roommates room to make their mistakes out of our line of sight. i had a couple more shots of a vodka during this time and Abby had a fifth of some shit vodka she was getting close to finishing off.
there it was again, me and her both completely wasted. i tried to keep her from drinking the rest of the fifth but ultimately we both finished it off. we talked, played around a bit, and watched some of the movies we both absolutely love, shoulder to shoulder like old friends. and just as a recap I had over a fifth and she has had just under a fifth at this point.
she gets tired cause it's probably around 3 am and she goes from leaning on my shoulder, to laying on my shoulder, to laying on my lap. we're on like movie 4 or 5 and i'm sitting wide awake combing her hair because i like the way it feels. eventually she's laying on top of me we still said a couple of words between each other but i was mostly silent watching the movie.
she's gets tired and she goes from sitting up, to laying on my shoulder, to laying on my lap with me combing her hair cause i like the way it feels and watching the movie. I make a couple stupid comments about the movie here and there but it was mostly quiet for 15 mins. then out of nowhere she gets on top of me facing me and leans in. i turned my head she started kissing my cheek so i pushed her away with the palm to forehead like a 4 year old. she kept trying to go in but after a bit of back and forth i rolled her over to my side back where she had been sitting and she just went back to laying on my lap. But then she started cuddling up more and grabbing at my waistband while i took her hands off. all her advances were really slow like a form of asking.
Then she gets on top of me again and leans in. when i turn my head she started to kiss my neck, unbutton my shirt, and bite my ear a little. i melted a little and i was also still confused. i try and push her back but she grabs my wrists and pins them back and i also had my legs up which she was sitting on my lap so i couldn't move them. I never told her to stop. i tried pushing back against her as hard as i could but my arms were pinned up and i was pushing straight back into her. I wasn't really trying to escape, i guess i just wanted to feel like i was putting up an actual effort. or maybe it was because i was really drunk.
while that was happening i asked about her boyfriend and told her she couldn't do that and she ignored me. she just said a couple of things about how lonely i was and how i dont deserve it. this girl is the only person i have ever opened up to, what she said cut deep. I still haven't been able to open up to anyone else.
anyways i got my hands free and rolled her over and pinned her down. she smiled and said something provocative and i stood up this time. we started to argue a bit or something of the sort, maybe a bit more playful. she was getting a bit loud so i shushed her and made her come outside.
she was mainly just saying i shouldnt let her treat me so bad and we kinda went back and forth. she started hitting me and told me to stop her and i just didn't.
after all that we went back to the couch. the only other notable thing that night was her hugging me really tight crying a bit bit saying she loves me. saying we loved each other had been fairly common that entire year but she absolutely didnt wanna let go.
that's about all i want to confess about that night which is a lot but not everything. i still struggle with the way it has left me conflicted.
she didn't remember any of it but i remembered everything about as well as you could for hours worth of conflict. i still remember what i was wearing that day.
with the way i tried to talk to her about it things didn't go well and we agreed not to mention any of it but then i changed my mind and after all was said and done we were not on speaking terms. she blocked me and whatnot and it would be a couple of months before she started talking to me again.
we eventually got back to talking and normalcy over the summer and we were fine pretty much until two months ago when she said she has "always felt weird about our friendship" and she didn't really care for me like i did for her and that was her don't talk to me anymore, im gone note.
in terms of that night specifically, i dont think anything could explain how much i wanted to give in. i can't think of one singular thing i have wanted so bad in my life. I change my view on it 8 times every time i think of it. It makes me angry that she would do that but i know i wanted it, it makes me upset that i didn't give in but i know it was the right thing to do. I mean what would have been the consequences for me and her? I've never felt anything within a light year of what i felt that night and i can't see myself finding someone else who makes me feel the same. Is it wrong to say i wish i would have just made the mistake? or did i make the mistake of not taking what i want? In reality it wasn't much of a choice. i was so drunk everything was just a vague reaction. fundamental morals of what's right and wrong.
I haven't even ever been in a relationship, hell never even kissed anyone, but recently i just can't see myself caring as much as I did for anyone and i dont think it's fair to not love the person you are in a relationship with. which speaking of, the word love was used far and few between after that night which was, well ig sad.
After Abby left for good I got over the grief really quickly this time but i just feel stale again. Every once in a while I think about how she's probably having a much better time without me and I was just a stain on her past. This whole story and journey is the most painful and biggest insecurity i have and i guess today it decided to haunt me again.

2023.05.30 10:55 poorfag (OnePlus 6t -> Pixel 7a) Starting to regret my decision of upgrading, looking for advice
Hey all, I recently upgraded from OnePlus 6t to Pixel 7a. There was absolutely nothing wrong with my OnePlus, other than not getting software upgrades from Android 11. I decided the risk of having a phone with no security updates for years was too high and Pixel 7a looked like a decent upgrade
I've been using my Pixel for about a week and a half and I cannot believe that it feels like a downgrade to my 5-year old OnePlus phone
- Charging is super slow in comparison. I got used to plugging the phone in and having 80% battery in half an hour. Pixel feels a lot slower, less than half as quick as I was used to.
- Battery life is abysmal. I was used to waking up, unplugging my OnePlus in the morning, and going to bed at night with ~20% battery left (5 year old phone!). In the Pixel, I can't get to 10pm without the phone getting to 1% and having to charge again.
- Phone heats up like crazy. Not even doing anything, just being on YouTube or playing Chess, and the phone feels like a toaster in my hand.
- Fingerprint reader just flat out does not work 90% of the time, so much so that I've disabled it because there's no point in having it.
- A ton of the features that Pixel advertises are not really relevant. All the fancy translation stuff only works in very few languages, call screening/call menu display only works in the US, etc
In short, it feels like a significant downgrade over my 5 year old OnePlus. The new features (90hz, music detector) don't feel like worth the downsides which feel massive.
I'm seriously thinking of returning it and staying in my old OnePlus for another few years. Am I completely crazy here? How can a five year old phone feel a lot better than a brand new phone from Google? Or should I expect things to get better with software upgrades over time?

2023.05.30 10:53 johanswift A Cautionary Tale
I'm posting this as a cautionary tale to anyone that currently feels like I did last year and also, for accountability.
I gave up drinking in August 2020. It was the best thing that I have ever done for myself and it helped me with my mental health enormously. My particular issue was anxiety, which started in 2017 as a - surprise, surprise - response to some of the things I had done whilst drunk.
In July 2022 I suffered my first real panic attack in a good while. It was in a social setting and I responded by doing all of the things that kept the anxiety and ended up developing rather bad social anxiety as a result.
I went to a wedding a month later and drank because I was anxious. I convinced myself it was a one-off and tried as hard as I could to stay sober. Unfortunately I continued to fuel my anxiety at the same time to the point that my mental health significantly deteriorated.
I drank again in December, this time on a football weekend away with a friend who had, for months, been convincing me to start drinking again. "It won't harm anyone, you have to live a little, you're so much better now than you were back in 2020, just have a drink."
Foolishly I listened. In February of this year I decided once and for all that I was going to start drinking again. I had convinced myself that I was fine, I was a different person than before and that I was going to do it my way, with a set of rules.
The rules were:
- Three pint maximum
- Never drinking in the house
- My partner had the ultimate veto
Within a couple of months I had broken those rules. I was drinking in the house again, but only 4 beers, and they were good beers, not the cheap ones, so I was doing it for the flavour and taste... The hangover I had the next day wasn't a proper hangover either, it was just a bad headache from not sleeping enough or a touch of hayfever, I didn't have a problem...
When I went to social events, the beer wasn't a crutch to overcome my social anxiety, I was just being normal, letting my hair down. I wasn't reliant on it. I had changed, I was a different person altogether...
I was lying to myself and I was lying to everyone else around me. The alcohol was ruining my self-esteem, it was ruining my routines, it was taking over. This past weekend just gone I went on a Stag Do and I did not have three pints. I had so many I can't count, I spent a fortune, I acted a complete and utter idiot, I made a fool of myself.
On Sunday when I returned from my two days of solid drinking I went to an engagement party and drank again. The anxiety was bad, my heart was beating so fast that I couldn't speak properly without stumbling over my words. I drank to calm those nerves of course.
Then, I was suddenly blind drunk. I pick a fight with someone, I was punched and kicked for acting like a complete and utter idiot. I was barred from the bar and punched by the owner for how I spoke to him. I was picked up by my fiancee who had my 10 months old son in the car and my heart broke as soon as I sat down next to him and he looked at me, his Daddy, with a big smile on his face, not having any clue what state I was in.
Yesterday I felt feelings I have not felt in years. I felt worthless. I felt pathetic. I felt suicidal.
Thankfully though I felt motivated to change. I have given up alcohol before and I will do it again. I may be at the bottom of the curve right now, but I will be working my way back up there. It starts with accountability and accepting that I have a problem, which is what this post is to help with.
If you are feeling like I felt and starting to think that you could handle drinking again because you've changed or are a different person, let my story be a cautionary tale to you. Sober you may have changed, but drunken you has not changed. They are still there waiting for you.
I will not drink with you today.

I gave up drinking in August 2020. It was the best thing that I have ever done for myself and it helped me with my mental health enormously. My particular issue was anxiety, which started in 2017 as a - surprise, surprise - response to some of the things I had done whilst drunk.
In July 2022 I suffered my first real panic attack in a good while. It was in a social setting and I responded by doing all of the things that kept the anxiety and ended up developing rather bad social anxiety as a result.
I went to a wedding a month later and drank because I was anxious. I convinced myself it was a one-off and tried as hard as I could to stay sober. Unfortunately I continued to fuel my anxiety at the same time to the point that my mental health significantly deteriorated.
I drank again in December, this time on a football weekend away with a friend who had, for months, been convincing me to start drinking again. "It won't harm anyone, you have to live a little, you're so much better now than you were back in 2020, just have a drink."
Foolishly I listened. In February of this year I decided once and for all that I was going to start drinking again. I had convinced myself that I was fine, I was a different person than before and that I was going to do it my way, with a set of rules.
The rules were:
- Three pint maximum
- Never drinking in the house
- My partner had the ultimate veto
Within a couple of months I had broken those rules. I was drinking in the house again, but only 4 beers, and they were good beers, not the cheap ones, so I was doing it for the flavour and taste... The hangover I had the next day wasn't a proper hangover either, it was just a bad headache from not sleeping enough or a touch of hayfever, I didn't have a problem...
When I went to social events, the beer wasn't a crutch to overcome my social anxiety, I was just being normal, letting my hair down. I wasn't reliant on it. I had changed, I was a different person altogether...
I was lying to myself and I was lying to everyone else around me. The alcohol was ruining my self-esteem, it was ruining my routines, it was taking over. This past weekend just gone I went on a Stag Do and I did not have three pints. I had so many I can't count, I spent a fortune, I acted a complete and utter idiot, I made a fool of myself.
On Sunday when I returned from my two days of solid drinking I went to an engagement party and drank again. The anxiety was bad, my heart was beating so fast that I couldn't speak properly without stumbling over my words. I drank to calm those nerves of course.
Then, I was suddenly blind drunk. I pick a fight with someone, I was punched and kicked for acting like a complete and utter idiot. I was barred from the bar and punched by the owner for how I spoke to him. I was picked up by my fiancee who had my 10 months old son in the car and my heart broke as soon as I sat down next to him and he looked at me, his Daddy, with a big smile on his face, not having any clue what state I was in.
Yesterday I felt feelings I have not felt in years. I felt worthless. I felt pathetic. I felt suicidal.
Thankfully though I felt motivated to change. I have given up alcohol before and I will do it again. I may be at the bottom of the curve right now, but I will be working my way back up there. It starts with accountability and accepting that I have a problem, which is what this post is to help with.
If you are feeling like I felt and starting to think that you could handle drinking again because you've changed or are a different person, let my story be a cautionary tale to you. Sober you may have changed, but drunken you has not changed. They are still there waiting for you.
I will not drink with you today.
2023.05.30 10:50 rjginhi How did you learn to walk?
So my 18 month old son is a toe walker. He can’t yet stand or walk unsupported bc he refuses to stand on his flat feet and he can’t balance on his tiptoes. However, he loves walking pushing a chair, and he’ll stand holding furniture or me, stable but very high on his toes. He uses his right foot flat to get up and down between crawling and standing, and occasionally he will go flat on the right foot while standing, but never on the left. The left ankle is extremely tight. My question, how did all of you toe walkers learn to walk? When did you learn to walk? We just got braces for my son 4 days ago and he has already figured out how to wiggle the left foot out of them no matter how tight we velcro it and tie the shoe laces. The doctor said he is the most extreme case of Idiopathic Toe Walking that he has seen in 5 years. Really, at this point, I don’t care if he walks on his toes or flat feet, so long as he can walk and have mobility. If you guys have any ideas for how to encourage independent walking and balancing for a toe walker, I would really appreciate your suggestions. Thanks!

2023.05.30 10:50 KSIDarthon New Star Trek Fan
I’m a new Star Trek fan and just wanted somewhere to talk about the movie I just watched 🤣 I’ve watched all of Star Trek TOS and TAS and tonight I watched Star Trek The Motion Picture movie and I thought it was great! and I’m ready to start the next movie but it’s 3:30am and I need sleep 🤣 it looked really good for a movie that was released in 1979. It felt different but the same all together. Spock cried which was insane to me 🤣 kirk is now a admiral or maybe back to a captain because of how it ended? I didn’t like how doctor McCoy was when he first was showed in the movie. Made me feel like the was trying to make him look and sound like a crazy old man when he’s the best doctor on board. Overall it was a great movie!

2023.05.30 10:49 SexySurvivor You can't be angry at someone you don't respect or care about it turns out
This is interesting
I mean they could frustrate you by repetitive acts like if they kept honking their car horn at you for 2 days -- I don't mean that
I mean the chicanery and moral debasedness of my manager -- as of today I truly give no care about anything she does anymore (it elicits zero reaction), no matter how rude or violent, now that she is 'out' as a coward/manipulatopeasant
Even the irritation I had before at 'how could you do this to me' in terms of impact on my careefinancial flow (I have no mortgage or kids thank fuck!!!!!)
That's all gone
But I *did* feel anger towards this manager pal of mine who has chickened out of helping me in the slightest because of 'perceived conflict of interest' -- really he is weak, spineless
My wife and I agree this is just his rationale for a general disinclination to trouble himself with disciplining his underlings -- 'people pleaser' went through my mind -- well he has pleased other people and not his soul with this one, and thrown his ally in the pig pen
I *did* feel anger towards him, for far lesser evil than what the other one done -- because I had respect for him and felt let down
I been reading Homage to Catalunia and George is amazingly lacking in rage towards the imprisonment and murder of his friends
And maybe it's this -- because he just saw them as demented devil types, the ones perpetrating this (I mean he did bank up enough menace to crank out two cold-blooded takedowns of soviets and fascists, but read the book and he just sails above anger in his recount, it's startling)
And then yes, so nothing such types do creates any feeling anymore, once you know it is *them*
And aha
It's just a will o the wisp
A hermit crab
A sand grain on the floor, trying to domineer others in its way

2023.05.30 10:49 Fantastic-Focus-7056 How to get 5mo to be by herself for a little while
My 5mo pretty much wants to be held 24/7 which is obviously just not possible. Whenever she is in her sitter or pack and play or pretty much just any surface that isn't my husband or I, she will be screaming within minutes. It makes no difference if I'm sitting with her, she can see/hear me or not. She will not stop until you pick her up. I sometimes have no other option but to let her cry for a bit because I also have a 2yo.
We never experienced this with her brother. He was completely fine to play by himself for a little while, as long as he could see or hear you.
For some added context: I think we may have "spoiled" her a little. When she was only 6w old, she spend 2 weeks in the hospital because her liver doesn't function properly. After that, she was hospitilized twice more for infections with fevers that would not go down. Because of this, nobody in the family seems to be able to hear her cry. She gets picked up right away. My mom and grandmother in particular. I know they say you can't really spoil a child that young, but here we are.
Does anyone have any tips for how we can get her used to being/playing by herself for a little while?

2023.05.30 10:49 Traditional-Acadia40 The team leader of REPR(Reaper)
Introducing my first OC.
(Let me know if something is inconsistent.)
Rogert "Roth" Oberon
Gender: Male
Age: 25 during the Fall of Beacon, 26 or 27 during Atlas arc.
Birthday: 18th day of the 10th month
Height: 1,87 meters
Species: Faunus, Bear. Notable markers: Bear snout.
Family: Father and mother, lost a younger sister and brother in a Grimm attack.
Class: Tank. Speciality: Defense, taking and holding ground.
Colours: The symbol is Brown. Black armour. Varied colours in the rest of the attire intended for camouflage depending on the environment. Doesn´t care much for the colour rule.
Semblance: =Redacted under orders of Headmaster of Beacon= Authorized personnel only as follows:
Animal morphing, Roth Oberon can turn into a big bear and remain in full control after years of practice. However, to maintain control of his semblance he needs to change into a bear once every 2 weeks for at least 2 hours to avoid permanently damaging his body. Gained the semblance in his 3rd year as a Huntsman trainee during a hunting mission. Becomes stronger, aura takes more damage and is more animalistic in behaviour when in animal form.
=Classified information ends=
Profession:
Huntsman in training at Beacon Academy, team leader. (Former)
Trainee in Vale military. (Former)
Guardsman of Beacon Academy.
Appearance: Strong arms with strong legs, broad shoulders, gold brown bear eyes, and brown hair. Bear mouth/snout. Muscular torso. Note: Functional muscles.
Weapons: Student to Mistral arc: Spear, machine gun gauntlet, sword gauntlet, one-shot reloadable rocket launcher with ammo and a spear tip from a broken spear.
Graduate Huntsman in Atlas arc: Two gauntlets with automatic machine guns and a sword blade coming out of them, grappling hooks on both, a spear tip and spear adjusted for his height and physique that can be split into 2 pieces. Carries dust grenades with him with empty dust slots and different dust with him.
Strengths:
- Roth is very strong and durable allowing him to survive hits that would kill many others.
- Adaptable to changing situations and has strong willpower, keen intelligence, observant nature and a sharp mind.
- Versatile combat technique and knows how to use a variety of weapons or forms.
- His calmness and mastery of his emotions.
- Bear´s sense of smell.
Weaknesses:
- Is slower at dodging than most fighters even in his younger years.
- His darker impulses are close to the surface when he is in charge.
- Workaholic.
- Lack of double-moded weapons.
- Great anger towards Grimm makes him hunt them with abandon or lure them in relatively easily. (Weakness in academy years, in adult years unorthodox trapping and luring method against Grimm. Double-edged sword.)
Inspiration: What I want to be. A person who could beat Hazel Rainart and Brutes from Batman Arkham Knight. Gregor Eisenhorn of Warhammer 40k and Kratos of God of War in his Nordic life for personality with my self.
History: Born to a pair of bear Faunus, one of them a cop and the other currently a member of Vale council, Roth could have had an easy life if life was kinder to him or if he chose a different career. A survivor of a Grimm attack on Mountain Glenn, he made it his life mission to eradicate Grimm from the face of Remnant. He lost his sister and brother to the Grimm when they were trying to reach safety with their parents. His parents were able to survive with him yet he lost a piece of himself there.
Refusing to be weak and defenceless again, Roth´s sole focus in combat school became learning, discipline and bodybuilding. In a matter of months to a year, he became strong as a tree and became the unofficial enforcer of his combat school keeping it clear from bullies. He gained a reputation for being unable to be intimidated or bribed.
Rogert met Elena Nathara during the initiation and became her partner in it. He was made team leader of team REPR(Reaper) due to his calm and observant nature. Over time his team where considered to be among the deadliest Huntsmen teams in Beacon history despite the conflicting personalities of the team.
Rogert made a name for himself in Beacon like in his combat school and became often scary to new student teams who don´t know his history or became scared of him because they did know his past as time went by. He enjoyed being a student at Beacon and in some ways, Beacon became his second home away from home and wowed to protect it against any danger.
Rogert sometimes tested potentially capable students and challenged them to fight in an effort to prepare them for Huntsman´s life. Few lasted very long against him and fewer still managed to beat him. Because of his experience in fighting students with very different fighting styles, Rogert has become very adaptable to different attacks and styles of combat.
After graduation, Roth went to train in the Vale military for 3 years and was put under heavier training than everyone else due to joining the training older than normal recruits to get him into a military standard. Roth´s first year was basic training, the second year involved advanced training/conditioning and the third year was commando tactics training under the commando unit of the Vale military.
After joining Vale´s reserve forces, he joined the Guardsmen, a school security force of Beacon with her old teammate Raina Odell who was there since the start. Has been rumoured of working with Ozpin due to the steady fall of the criminal element in Vale and being seen in random locations around Remnant between school years after graduation.
Current location: the City of Vale working as a Guardsman.
Skills:
- Knows many melee weapon combat forms and has a lot of fist-fighting experience. After training and fighting in missions in a military unit for 3 years after graduation, he has learned to fight like a commando and how to shoot with military rifles.
- Is familiar with Vale military tactics.
- Knows how to make new weapons from the ground up with primitive equipment and knows how to maintain them effectively and how to repair them.
- Rogert knows how to survive in the wilderness. Building shelter, use of camouflage, hunting for food and foraging, how to lose a hunter, navigating etc. His speciality is tracking a target or missing supplies.
- Good stealth skills and ability to disappear enhanced by military education.
- Knows how to make grenades and bombs and how to defuse them. (Trained in the military and by Parish Broc.)
- Knows the basics of using military equipment, vehicles and weapons after graduation and training in the military.
- Interrogation skills enhanced by his physical presence and how to gain information by talking. And knows how to extract information by inflicting pain and suffering. (Trained with some success by Elena Nathara.)
- Knows psychological warfare and guerrilla tactics. Specializes in Grimm counter-tactics.
- Knows criminal psychology and how to establish a crime scene and how to gather evidence. (Trained by his father and Raina Odell.)
- Knows how to administer first aid. (Basic and Huntsman academy training.)
Personality: Rogert is a loner who was given the job of a leader despite not wanting it. He became more comfortable in the role over the years yet never truly believed he should be a leader. This dislike ironically might have made Roth a more humble person than he would have been otherwise. While a humble person, Roth has no illusions of his strengths and how powerful he can be when in battle.
Roth values loyalty and honesty, things he has shown to his team by having no secrets from them and has encouraged his team to do the same with great effect. Because of his values in honesty, Rogert does not forgive attempts to lie to him and tries to limit his words to be as truthful as possible.
Roth has a ruthless attitude when it comes to leadership and dealing with enemies. As a leader, Roth expects nothing but competence and giving 100% in combination with a firm chain of command and on-the-spot obedience.
Roth is a strong believer of learning from history and mistakes and is hard on himself when he makes the same mistake twice.
Desiring to always have the upper hand he learned to keep his emotions in check at all times and focused on his studies in his free time and school time. Other people often consider him emotionless, yet no one is willing to say it in his earshot, and he doesn´t mind this thought about him.
Rogert has mastered his emotions and he can make decisions that would make other people disgusted with themselves be it torture or cruel punishments without flinching as he got older. While his team reminds him about his better nature and while his actions have never been directed against an innocent, Rogert believes he can´t afford to hesitate to act when many lives are at stake.
His team REPR has helped him loosen up and he discovered his liking for playing the saxophone and driving. His team has helped him to become a better man than he thinks he needs to be as the years went by.

Facts about the character:
- Rogert prefers to be called Roth because the name is easier to pronounce and he prefers a shorter name.
- Rogert put the team to vote on whether they should stick together as a group. Ultimately, the team was split up, yet REPR occasionally would help each other on big operations. He voted No, yet never said why even when asked.
- Roth´s closest relationships are with his parents, Elena, and Raina and he thinks highly of Doctor Bartholomew Oobleck due to his teaching and wisdom.
- Rogert takes Huntsman missions between semesters and seasonal breaks other than holidays.

Just looking for Coromon and the games in the title and Paypal (my region is EU), nothing else. If you offer a huge list of games or anything that's not in the title or on my wishlist you might get blocked for not having basic reading comprehension
I know Coromon is in a pricy build your own bundle rn so could do multiple smaller games for it but no ridiculous offers please

Only interested in Paypal offers and games in the title don't comment if you don't have either to offer. For AAA games I'm only taking Paypal offers, not trades Any comments with lists of random games I likely already own will be ignored and possibly blocked. My region is EU, if you are outside of EU you have to cover Paypal fees. I do not have a set price for anything, if you ask "how much for" you'll be asked if you have a price in mind.

2023.05.30 10:46 Ok-J-9237 (CA) 28y/o never had my learners permit
I’m 28 years old , I have never had my Learners permit, I’ve only ever taken the written test once when I was a teen and failed and never went back? I have also never driven which I guess is good because that would be illegal Hah 😅, so do I need to Take my Written test before trying to get my Drivers License, I’ve had 3 older coworkers (all in their 40’s/50’s) tell me that after 25 you don’t need to take your written exam just get insurance and then you can take the behind the wheel test?? “That’s how they did it” are they just messin me??

2023.05.30 10:45 AceAirbender [Online][5e][Homebrew][18+][all players welcome][LGBT friendly][European Timezone]The Green Force Warriors are seeking recruits!
Join the Green Force Warriors and explore the continent of Nokonia! In this story, you will join a mercenary guild and travel the world, helping it's people with their problems. Cults, pirates, the undead... there's many frightening foes you will have to fight on your journey to piece together the powerful rainbow star. If you do this out of sheer goodwill or to earn reputation and money is only up to you.
If you want to join the Green Force Warriors, you should:
-Be between 19 and 25 years of age. I am 22 years old and I prefer to play with people within my own age group.
-have time for a session at least once a week, ideally live in a European Timezone or be willing to make it work
-Be accepting of LGBT relationships and themes in the campaign
-Be accepting of a largely homebrewed world, not everything is exactly as the rulebooks say, aside from most gameplay mechanics
-be accepting of a dmpc, as I prefer to play a part too in my story. Of course the primary focus will be on the player characters
-be familiar or willing to learn how to use avrae and dnd beyond
-have or be willing to make a discord account, as that's where we will play
-be okay with my world taking inspiration from several of my favorite video games
-not flirt, date or try to have sex my characters
-homebrew gameplay should be kept to a minimum with the characters, as it is very hard to balance, but flavor is allowed, but I want you to talk about that with me beforehand
-be willing to interact with my characters and the world itself
-be willing to work with me to integrate the character into the world
-be aware that I tend to avoid character deaths at all cost, so you should play a character you can see playing yourself longterm
If all these rules dont distract you, please comment or dm me the following:
Your character's name:
Your character's age:
Your character's species/race:
A short description of what they're like and their backstory:
And with that out of the way, I soon hope to greet you within the ranks of the Green Force Warriors!
Please be aware that if multiple people comment on this I will not be able to accept everyone into the campaign! If that happens, I will NOT NECESSARILY choose whoever commented first, but rather choose who I think fits our table the best.
Geez. I hope I don't look super snooty now.

2023.05.30 10:45 meltdowncity Traveling
 | Been a lot of depressing posts in here lately. I’m not judging, this whole deal is hard. I think it’s just the natural human tendency to be more likely to want to vent about issues than it is to talk about the positive things. submitted by meltdowncity to Autism_Parenting [link] [comments] Just wanted to make a post about how badass my wife is. We have diagnosed level 1, but probably now is 2 10 year old, and a 2 year old son that is likely also on the spectrum somewhere. My wife just took them on 3 flight 30 hr odyssey to Istanbul, the 2 year old didn’t sleep, and my 10 year old caught a stomach bug and puked on 2/3 flights. Her mother was there to help, but how insane is this woman to subject herself to that? And btw. She did the same last summer with all three of our kids and the baby was 1. Not just a short trip either. She’s there for 2.5 months hopping around lol. It is worth mentioning that my 10 year doesn’t really have “meltdowns” or they are at least very very rare. He does have some challenging behaviors tho. And my 2 year old is just like any 2 year old, emotionally unstable and insane. I realize not everyone in here has an option to be this “tough”, for some of our kiddos some of traveling like this would be virtually impossible. But for the rest of us (myself included) I really believe there is some inspiration here. My wife and her mom came to the US as refugees from a war torn country, and while I’m not here to say they’re perfect parents or people, the way they just breeze through things In life like this has been wild for me to watch up close, I grew up exactly the opposite. Watching them has really made me question how I make my decisions involving my asd kids and how I live my life in general. They simply don’t give one F about our kids having asd or that something’s will be harder. They spend 0 time worrying about it just deal with it when it comes. Pic is my tired boys finally at their hotel. |
