[author0] [PC] Anyone else get random frame drops that last until you restart the game? This game will run perfectly fine 99% of the time but like once a day I'll be starting a game/mid game and then boom I get hit with this frame drop that lasts until I close out and re open. I average 120fps ish but when this frame rate drop hits I average like 20fps. It's literally unplayable. The response time of the game gets super slow too. I'll move my mouse and like .5 seconds later my gun will then move.

[author0] One year ago: InSight Images a Sunset on Mars [author1] Is this real image/color or is there distortion from the photo? Is our sunset more colorful from the difference in atmosphere compared to Mars or is it just photo quality? [author0] It's a real photo, but colour-corrected by NASA to how people would see the image on Mars, follow the NASA link in the comments for both the raw image and the colour corrected versions.
Sunsets on Mars turns the sky blue, unlike here on Earth where the sky turns red. This is due to the way sun light is scattered in the dust laden and thin atmosphere of Mars atmosphere.
Here's a good page on Wiki that shows examples from several Mars missions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomy_on_Mars

[author0] 3rd Generation Won't Update Name Installed two 4k sticks and two 3rd generation sticks at a customer's house.
To make casting easier, I updated the names of the sticks on the device manager page of Amazon.
The 4k stick's names update immediately. The 3rd gen sticks still say their original names.
Anyone run into this issue? Any solutions?
Thanks! [author1] Can you change it on the Alexa app or in Fire TV device settings? [author0] Strangly enough. Didn't think about that. Every time I Googled how to change their names, it just told me to go through the Amazon website.
Will give it a try. Thanks!

[author0] Please help me choose a reliable router to work from home \[Reposting because apparently the spam filter didn't like the first time.\]
I'm trying to decide on what to get for a more capable router to work from home. I first considered the **UDM Pro**, but at that price I had decided I couldn't justify it and thought maybe pfSense was a better value for the cost. *Now* *I'm second guessing myself thinking maybe I should go with a Ubiquiti solution if it would be easier to manage? I* ***can*** *google and follow instructions pretty well, but I don't particularly* ***want to*** *have to right now.*
I thought about the **regular UDM** as well as the **UDM Pro**.
Ubiquiti had scared me off because I keep seeing posts about bugs, problems with the seemingly-aimless direction of the business, and, of course, the price. I'm willing to give it a go though, if there's something that can get even close to my budget. Frankly, I'm stressed out and all I know is I'm desperately trying to get work done and my old Archer C7 isn't cutting it anymore.
\-------
Most of my post from pfsense:
*Factors in my use and needs to note:*
* I'm having fibre installed, but I may not splurge for 1 gig. I'll probably go with 500, but it would be nice (although not required) if it could handle 1 gig in case I do choose that speed.
* I don't particularly plan on using IDS/IPS.
* I may run a VPN occasionally, but not all the time.
* I mainly need the stability for videoconferencing for work and backing up to my NAS+Backblaze, but also for streaming Netflix, some light gaming, and an IoT network.
* I would like to keep it under $200 if possible, especially in this economy.
* Relatively low power consumption would be good.
* For now I may have to use my old router as the AP to keep the cost under control.
*The Ubiquiti hardware I am considering:*
* The UDM — nice, expensive.
* The UDM Pro — nicer, even more expensive, but seems like maybe a better price to power ratio.
* The older hardware — good I guess but how long will it be supported? I don't know much about all the different choices here.
Sorry for all the following pfSense talk on /r/ubiquiti ...
*The pfSense boxes I was looking at:*
* The Netgate SG-1100 — The price is good, and the free support right now would be nice, but it seems kinda under-powered.
* The Protectli FW2B — The price is still okay, but once I add RAM and an SSD (even from Amazon) the price goes above my budget. It seems definitely more powerful than the SG-1100. They apparently have a better return policy than Netgate and I assume they have decent support as well.
* The direct-from-China special, the "XCY Mini PC" \[I took the link out in case it had a referral code\] — Even for the top spec options the price is good. I'm assuming no support and no returns, plus slow shipping. Or is there an even more better one on a certain Chinese website?
**Thanks in advance for any help!** This isn't quite my area — actually not at all — but I'm trying to work from home effectively and my old Archer C7 just isn't up to the job it seems. I appreciate any direction or advice I can get about Ubiquiti or pfSense.
I hope I haven't broken any rules by asking this. Thanks again. [author1] You have a lot of options at that price point, provided you don’t want to run quality of service on the Ubiquiti router.
The ER-X (like $50) I believe can do basic routing at gigibit with hardware offloading. But using Smart Queue (which reduces latency and improves video conferencing when the link is heavily loaded) maxes out at 140Mbps. I think. I have 100 and the ER-X was just fine.
The ER-4 is the step up with a much more powerful processor. I think $150. That means it can handle QoS at a higher speed, but I’ve forgotten how fast.
You may also want to consider the TP-Link Omaha access points. They are quite a bit cheaper than the Ubiquiti ones and have tested out to offer better performance according to the one test I found comparing them (aka, not extensive).
So at 500Mbps I’m not sure how much value you will actually get from QoS. Hopefully someone else has an answer. Because if you don’t need it, an ER-X and new access point will easily fit your budget.
Oh, I just upgraded to a Protectli running pfSense. I did that because I want to play with running a VPN for my whole house and needed the extra horsepower. [author0] Since you've used both, what do you think is the easiest in terms of setup and management? Contrary to a lot of people, I don't have much free time right now for a steep learning curve. [author1] I think the Ubiquiti was easier to setup. It has a bunch of wizards for common configuration. I have Centurylink and they require configuring a VLAN and PPPOE to connect to them. Ubiquiti had a Wizard and I was up and running in minutes. Smart Queue was just a toggle switch.
PfSense on the other hand required me a couple of hours because you have to start by installing pfSense on the Protectli yourself. Then configure the bios, add a bridge so all the ports work, add 4 queues and then floating firewall rules to activate them. It’s a tinkerers dream.
But I’m keeping the Edgerouter around as a backup, and if I’m unavailable I can walk my wife through configuring the edgerouter pretty easily. [author0] Fantastic, that's just the sort of answer I needed. I've just ordered an ER-X and a TP-Link Omada AC1350 from Amazon to see if it works for me. [author1] Oooo. Excited to hear about the Omada. [author0] I’ll try to remember to post an update in a few weeks!

[author0] If I have the Ubuntu ISO on a USB, can I use Windows to mount the iso and install it while it's stored on the USB? Title says it all "If I have the Ubuntu ISO on a USB, can I use Windows to mount the iso and install it while it's stored on the USB?"
My friend has a 30gb storage windows 10 PC. YES, 30 WHOLE GB! GIGABYTE! So of course Windows itself is taking up 90% of that space so since I'm not there to just save the poor girl the hassle and put an actually good storage capacity drive in it I decides I'd find a way to put Ubuntu desktop on the PC which I imagine should run better and leave a tiny bit more space than windows would. Of course my only issue is how to get it to boot when I can't store it directly on the PC and can't make a bootable USB if the iso is on the USB, as far as I'm aware I can't anyways, could be wrong... [author1] > Title says it all "If I have the iso on a USB, can I use Windows to mount the iso and install it while it's stored on the USB?"
A bootable USB device doesn't need Windows to boot, only an intact and functional system BIOS or UEFI system. If a computer came fresh from the factory with no operating system installed, it would still be able to boot and install from the right kind of USB device. [author0] I was meaning if rufus could create a bootable USB even if the ISO is on the target USB, doesn't rufus format the drive?
Also, if I were to just try to run the ISO mounted in Windows from the USB surely I'd run into some problems? If I could store that ISO on the main storage of the PC I'd have no worries, my concern is if I tried to read it from a USB as soon as the PC tries to restart to boot into Ubuntus installation screen it'll just fail to read from the USB ISO. [author1] > I was meaning if rufus could create a bootable USB even if the ISO is on the target USB, doesn't rufus format the drive?
All Rufus should do is copy the ISO to the USB device, which completely overwrites all that was there before. That's the way it's supposed to work. This means the prior USB contents don't matter.
> Also, if I were to just try to run the ISO mounted in Windows from the USB surely I'd run into some problems?
You can't run the ISO while it is mounted in Windows. You can only boot it as a separate bootable operating system. Windows isn't running then. [author0] Ah okay, so if I download rufus on drive C:/, select the iso in drive D:/ to install onto drive D:/ it'll make bootable drive files without any issues? [author1] > Ah okay, so if I download rufus on drive C:/, select the iso in drive D:/ to install onto drive D:/ it'll make bootable drive files without any issues?
No, that would not work. The location of the ISO file, and the location of the USB device, must be separate. Typically a downloaded ISO file would be located in the user's downloads directory, and a USB device will be mounted to E: or H:, whatever. So Rufus would be directed to the location of the ISO file and the location of the USB device -- separate locations. [author0] Thank you, I gave it a Google and it seems UNetbootin claims it'll make a bootable USB without formatting it. Guess I'll find out once it's done. [author1] There is never a need to format a USB device before flashing an ISO onto it. Never. Jamais. This is true regardless of which program does the flash operation. [author0] Yeah, seems Rufus, the preferred program to make a bootable USB forces you to format it though, of course I need to work around this and I think I've found a way... Well, UNetbootin seems to be stuck extracting files but it is hanging on a 1954mb file being extract by a dirt cheap CPU so I'll not give up hope just yet. [author1] > Yeah, seems Rufus, the preferred program to make a bootable USB forces you to format it ...
I knew there was something wrong with Rufus. On Linux, creating a bootable USB device looks like this:
$ sudo dd if=installer.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M && sync
The prior content of the USB device is unimportant.
Well, I hope your creation process succeeds. [author2] I guess Rufus is just making sure that the USB has a mostly compatible FS on it to boot from and then copies the files from the ISO onto it without just writing the iso onto the USB drive [author1] If Rufus does that, it is wasting your time, because an ISO flash completely erases anything that was present beforehand. [author2] Rufus asks what you want to name your drive and it keeps the whole capacity iirc. Im not using it as it was hit or miss if it worked or not, I just resort to dd for Linux stuff and just use the Media Creation Tool for Windows [author1] > Rufus asks what you want to name your drive and it keeps the whole capacity iirc.
Yes, it does -- up to, but not including, the moment when it flashes an ISO file to the device. After that, there is nothing remaining of the prior content.
After an ISO flash, the device appears to have the capacity of the ISO filsystem image, not the USB device. This is because the ISO file overwrites the device's original partition table.
Therefore, there is no point in formatting a USB device before an ISO flash. If Rufus does it, it's wasting your time. [author2] I know what an ISO flash is, don't worry, I just didn't know if Rufus did that or just goes copy and paste as it must do something different as it never really worked for me [author1] Rufus has a spotty reputation. I often recommend that people use Etcher instead. There's something about Rufus that allows newbies to create unbootable USB devices.

[author0] Car question for you Guys - wanted to get your thoughts on cars. I have mostly been a BMW guys -have a 7 series lease now that is ending soon. I realized that I don’t put a lot of miles of my car so am thinking of buying my next one - keep it for about 8 years.
Debating between a CPO - 2018 560, 750 or panerama. I can get these for abt 80k.
Any suggestions or thoughts? Any other cars that should consider?
Thanks [author1] My $80k would go to a CPO full-size Range Rover but if you go with the S560 or 750 make sure it’s under warranty. [author2] Full sized Range Rover Supercharged also a great idea. We have a 2019 and like it very much. Totally different than the sedans though.
Hard to get down to $80k without a whole lot of miles on it though. Always go with a warranty on the Range Rover of course.

[author0] Dave Meltzer responding to a fan saying Charlotte is causing the ratings drop: That's like arguing AEW ratings drop with Brodie Lee or Lance Archer, or Smackdown ratings drop with John Morrison. All ratings are going to drop and continue to do so. Blaming new characters for this is pretending that [author1] https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/gai0kq/wwe_women_with_the_most_ppv_match_time/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_
Charlotte is a 10 time main roster champion. She has benefited from almost 4 more hours of PPV match time than any other woman in the history of the company. She should be expected to make an impact on NXT, given that push.
Pretending that AEW or WWE have invested in Brodie Lee or John Morrison nearly as much is preposterous. [author2] To be fair no one Is a draw. Lesner coykd appear on NXT and I doubt the ratings would improve much. Only the Rock or Stone Cold showing up on NXT would draw [author3] I'd tune in to see what Lesnar was doing on NXT.

[author0] Oh how quickly we forget... It was just a few weeks ago where this sub was on fire and hell bent on getting parth and upper management fired or changed. What happened? Did we forget all the terrible decisions they made from the kicking of DL, to screwing Zikz and what he had built, to forcing grig and screwing akaadian and our team from such a good spring 2019, to letting Zhang coach spring 2020 when even Parth agreed he was a filler lmao. I get we’re hyped to have DL back and it’s business (Feel Bad for Kobbe) but Jesus does this sub just change gears real quick and forget what the hot mess our upper management and GM was. Now all of a sudden we’re flaming and blaming DD saying he’s not worth it, he sucks, he inted, he should be replaced. Like what? A few weeks ago wasn’t this all Zhang’s and Parth’s dumpster fire and how we should support our players and if they were set up with better picks and a good coach we would’ve challenged C9 or beaten them. DD still deserves one good shot with a good coach who can give human drafts and manage the mentality of the players and also with DL, period. Only time in history where we have played around the jungler was in 2016 summer Sven and man were we good/proactive. Let’s at least try to play like C9 and play around our jungler instead of trying this style of where our junglers are just enablers to the laners.
Btw DD has the sickest playlist period fuck what anyone thinks [author1] No one has forgotten, there is nothing to be said about it at this point that has not already been said. its beating a dead horse. we dont know what their plans are for summer or if they can change must with the current Pandemic we are a part of. I am finding it borderline cringe at this point for the people rehashing old issues before anything has been discussed. [author2] Yeah theres only so much you can say while nothing new is happening.
I think the majority of us are waiting to see what the changes are. Im sure plenty of people will be outraged again if it doesnt meet expectations.
Kinda odd that people are calling to continue the outrage for the sake of just being outraged. [author1] i agree that if nothing happens by summer (I dunno if its gonna be before or during depending on travel conditions) but we can re open the whole "they aren't fixing their issue"
but doing it right now in the middle of their time off is kinda pointless.

[author0] No but they said that given my age a prostate problem is very unlikely [author1] Yeah that is true , normally starts becoming a problem after 50 . Any other symptoms apart from pain when urinating ? [author0] Inability to completely empty bladder and insomnia [author1] Have you noticed you need to go bathroom more frequently , any hesitation, is the insomnia due to you constantly feeling like you have to go ?

Is it a dribble ? [author0] Usually strong sometimes a dribble both never empty though [author1] And sorry might seem like a strange question , but it is important , have you noticed any changes in ejaculation ?
Also have you had any recent surgeries , trauma , or placed on any new meds ?
Also did they do a UEC test ? [author0] No trauma and no meds [author1] What about surgery ? [author0] No surgery [author1] Well I'm stumped, thanks for the replies . The only thing I can think of left is to investigate is the prostate . Eveyhting else has been pretty much ruled out . [author0] My urologist is stumped to thanks for trying though [author1] No worries , I would enquire about the prostate . I know prostate problems aremt really common for people your age . But it is like the only thing that is left that hasn't been ruled out .

[author0] Action/adventure anime with some or heavy fanservice Like the title says, I like fanservice but hate romance, harems or 'nyaa I'm naked' gags. The perfect example would be something like Ikkitousen and Queen's blade (no romance, no gags). Its fine if it is light in fanservice too like fairytail or one piece. But I'd like it if it were women's dominated and more human fighting focused rather than mecha.
Anime I've watched that 'kinda' relate to what I'm looking for
Highschool DxD (liked it till the romance became heavy)
Freezing
Valkyrie drive (not a fan of the sexual aspects)
Strike witches
Trinity seven
Tenjou tenge

[author0] How much farther can gaming advance? So compared to the PAC MAN arcades of the nineties? AC odyssey feels amazing. But how much farther can gaming go before it’s reached its limit?(graphically speaking)
We know RTX is the next big step in improving graphics, but what’s next? Perfect animations? Realistic graphics of the whole game world, and not just what matters to the story ?( looking at you, Spider-Man pigeons.)
Or maybe even in a couple decades we get to the point where something like Ready Player One is the norm.
So guys, how much farther do you think gaming can go before we reach the technical and graphical limit? [author1] Hadn’t thought of that tbh. So yeah, I agree that RTX is next until VR gets more and more affordable. I think eventually we will reach a place somewhat like RPO where people have cells or rooms in their house that fully replicates the virtual world. Past that? I’m not really sure. Then I think it’s more about building into games and such rather than improve the graphics, so building game universes, but that would in turn create video games,, inside of video games
Also I read that as animal crossing instead of assassins creed lol [author0] True true lol.
But yeah idk if hardware and graphically speaking games can really go beyond VR, maybe adding sensory mechanisms and smell and so on? Something like SAO or like that. [author1] SAO is a good example, but maybe not even virtual and move to extremely detailed holograms that you personally fight? [author0] Hm that would work too!
I think augmented reality would be easier than VR

[author0] Intermediate cyclist looking for a full carbon frame aero/TT bike for around $2500. Hello, r/cycling. Last year, I got into triathlons and realized how much I enjoy cycling. After getting spanked in triathlons by folks with space-age looking carbon aero bikes (with me on my hybrid gravel bike), I have developed an interest in getting myself one. In doing some consumer research, I have become overwhelmed with options. I'm hoping I'll find some useful advice here.
Elements that I'm looking for:
**Mandatory**
* Carbon frame
* Under or very close to $2,500
**Not Mandatory, but preferred**
* Carbon wheels
* Under 20lbs (My current bike is 28lbs)
* Aero Handlebars (the ones with the shifters on the ends)
* Shimano Ultegra groupset
* Disc brakes
* No crazy decals
I have identified the Specialized Shiv, and the Boardman AIR 9.2 as bikes that meet some of my requirements. However, there is such a variety of price from brand to brand that I have no idea if I'm paying for quality or just the brand name. I don't want to buy something now only to realize that something much better exists for the same or less money. I have found bikes with all of my specifications listed for under 2k, and bikes with almost none of my specifications (from brands like Orbea) for way over my budget. I am looking for a quality bike that will last me several years; I don't care what the brand name is as long as it meets my requirements and doesn't fall apart while I'm riding.
Thanks! [author1] I was just on pulse endurance’s website earlier and they had some good deals on TT bikes. New bike day is the best, happy shopping!
https://www.pulseendurance.com/collections/triathlon [author0] Those are some great deals too! Unfortunately the only size that they're sold out of is my size. Of course!

[author0] What do you think ______ is going to spend all those fire tokens on? What do you think Natalie is going to spend all her fire tokens on? She has 8?
From [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/survivor/comments/f55ig2/guide_all_we_know_about_fire_tokens/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf), the menu is:
## Menu in EoE
- Advantage in return challenge (can be bought 3 times per player): 1 token
- Idol with full power (only has effect if brought to main game): 3 tokens
- Pizza: 1 token
- Jar of peanut butter: 1 token
- Bottle of wine: 1 token
- Six-pack of beer: 1 token
- Hammock: 1 token
- (There is one more item costing 1 token, but it has never been shown in the menu.)
But is that still right??? [author1] Can she bring fire tokens into the game with her? I’d say buy all three advantages and maybe one food item. Also, it’s possible that prices will change the day of the challenge as they did back at camp after the merge [author0] I don’t know if they can bring them back

[author0] My car's been resting without any oil for about a month due to covid. Is there anything different I need to do? 1997 Toyota Corolla Levin. AE111 body, 4-AFE 1.6l engine.
So a day before lockdown in my country, which happened roughly 4-5 weeks ago, I was trying to do an oil change on the car. I emptied the old oil out which was definitely due for a change, badly. Unfortunately the oil filter was too difficult to get off without a oil filter wrench which I did not have on me. And because of the lockdown, I couldn't go to the shops to get one. For that reason, my car's been parked outside for about 4-5 weeks with no oil in the engine. Things have loosened up a bit now and I've got my hands on an oil filter wrench. I'm just concerned that leaving my car without oil for that long might require some extra maintenance to get up and running again.
Could you guys advise? Can I just replace the oil filter, chuck some oil in there and she'll be alright? I also heard the fuel might be going off, not being used for almost a month. Not sure what I can do about it though. [author1] Filling the oil wont have an effect, just like if there was oil in it before it will all drain to the bottom of the oil pan. You're doing no harm but it never hurts to be too cautious. The fuel wont go bad after 1 month. [author0] Oh jeez thank god. I was worried after going through a bunch of quora pages that i'd need to do a whole bunch of other things to get it up an running again. I'll start her up as soon as I've done the change and probably update here if things went smoothly or not. Thanks! [author2] If you feel the need to get oil thru out the engine,turn off electrical, power to engine,run the started a few times, this will work the oil pump putting oil up into the motor. turn on power and start car. we did this with our drag cars every time we went to the track.

[author0] I need of a grass wizard. My dogs are destroying my yard. We have neighbor dogs on all sides and there’s dirt paths everywhere. I’ve tried dividing the yard in two with a temporary fence. I tilled and seeded the no dog zone 4 or 5 weeks ago and can’t get anything to grow back. Does anyone have any grass seed recommendations or should I just give up and rubber mulch the whole damn yard?
Edit: the original grass was zoysia that has been taken over by clover and crab grass.. if that matters. [author1] Seed is extremely hard for me to ever get to grow. I’ve been successful zero times. For my time and frustration, sod has been a winner. [author0] I was thinking sod as well but I’m worried they’re just going to destroy it. Is there a type of sod that’s more resilient to traffic?

[author0] When they actually matter [author1] I know this is a meme subreddit, but please tell me y'all don't believe that "the 3/5 advocates were racist" nonsense.
I mean, being the 1700s, most of them likely *were*, but you do realize that it was the *slaveowners* who wanted slaves to count as full people, right?
In other words, for this meme to be correct, the redneck should be replaced with a Northerner or else he should be pushing for "black lives" to "matter" 5/5ths. [author2] They don't teach that in history classes.
Not to mention that the 3/5ths didn't mention black people it only mentioned slaves. [author1] >They don't teach that in history classes.
Yes, they do. Or at least, they did when I was in school. People just don't pay attention.
>Not to mention that the 3/5ths didn't mention black people it only mentioned slaves.
True, but that's splitting hairs tbh. [author2] I'm a teacher and every year there's a week long project and lesson about this subject in both 6th grade and 9th grade.
Trust me, it's not taught in my school. I have to spend two weeks fixing the kids after.

[author0] Everyone is talking about the vikings from the new AC game, but can we talk about the Centurion/Highlander guy from the trailer? [author1] The only thing I noted is that the scale armor actually worked, for once. [author2] Scale armor was relatively good back then. Also not to mention the guy is a beefcake. [author3] Yeah but normally in media the axe would’ve gone through it like it was damp tissue paper [author4] In media yes in reality axe wouldn't go through. [author5] I mean yes and no, it depends on what type of scale armor it is, what kind of axe (which Ik the guy is using a one handed axe but I mean in general), how hard the hit is, and where the hit is. For example If he opened from wrath and landed a clean solid blow to the collarbone it would go through especially if the scale the guy is wearing is on the thinner side, and even if for some reason it didn't go through it would very likely break the collarbone. I love scale armor don't get me wrong, but JUST scale without padded armor under has crappy blunt force distribution. [author4] Of course I am talking about a well made armour. An axe cannot simply crack a scale in one hit istead an axe may strike down small gaps between scales. But this would cause bruieses not cuts on skin if the wearer does not wear anything under the armour. [author5] Well, that's not necessarily true because blunt force can cause the skin to split open, especially if it's over bone like in the collarbone region. Axes also can produce enough force even one handed ones but especially two handers to cut through and/or seriously deform scale, chain mail, and sometimes even plate [author4] Maces are still best for armoured oppenents while axes and Swords are better suited for low armoured and non-armoured enemies. In vikings' case they mostly raped and pillaged villiages and people cannot defend defend themselves properly. That's why it took them too long to conquer England and Normandy. [author5] Halberds and Poleaxes are even better because the give you far more reach and they're more versatile than a mace or god forbid a flail [author4] I definitly agree. I did not mentioned them because we mainly talking about one handed weapons. Spears and its family is very good against plate armour as it can reach the gaps from a distance. [author5] Spears less so if we're talking full plate, unless you're talking mounted combat (with a lance being more likely) which is a WHOLE other animal. Not all pole arms which the spear "is" are made for anti armor, the halberd, pole axe, Bardiche, and a few others would be better suited to it. (Technically a longsword could be effective if you half sworded) [author4] Yes I am meaning spear family (Whole polaxes and halberds) [author5] It's more accurate to call it them pole arms because while a pole flail is a pole arm it's certainly not in the spear family, halberds and pole axes you can argue bc they have a thrusting point but they're not innately a spear in my opinion [author4] Definitly it is a better term, sorry my bad. [author5] No need to be sorry :)

TLDR; short oil for free money [author1] Okay say I bought 500 FD’a of MPC FOR JULY for a penny. Waste of 2500 or nah? 60c
also I’m not sure why I did it. It was retarded. But the growth looks to be well on track. Hmm. [author2] Ah fuck. I was hoping MPC was my little secret.
I bought the 5/15 34s. Realizing now that I meant to buy 35s and am an idiot.
Those 60s are gonna be tough. [author1] Haha I also realized and hedged with 35c Yeah tough but even if it gets like to 50 the contracts will be worth over a $1 at least. I mean it was close to up 30% this month even with oil being in the shitter.
Let’s go team MPC!! [author2] Alright you got me going.

[author0] Change my mind: Endgame Cap should have wiped the floor with past Avengers Cap I’m watching endgame today and the scene where Cap meets himself in the past doesn’t work for me. Endgame Cap should have won easily.
He has somewhere around 10 years more training, and time in Wakanada with T’Challa.
He didn’t just spend all day fighting alien hordes, and he’s had time to move past all his emotional baggage where Avengers Cap just woke up what, 2 weeks ago.
He’s stronger, has learned new fighting styles and is smarter tactically.
Really it’s no contest and the fight shouldn’t have been as close as it was. Anyone disagree? [author1] Endgame Cap didn't want to injure 2012 Cap, but 2012 Cap thought he was fighting Loki. It doesn't matter the training they've each had, one was clearly holding back
Also I don't get your point about T'Challa. What does it have to do with anything? [author0] T’Challa is a skilled fighter and the style of fighting would be unfamiliar to 2012 Cap which is an advantage for Endgame cap in my opinion
Imagine you are say, a pro boxer, top of your game. Then you add in other styles and transition to MMA and spend 10 years developing those skills. If you went back in time it should, in theory, be easy to put your past self out of commission.
You’re right he was holding back though, and that could close the gap potentially [author1] The T'Challa thing holds no weight imo. I agree that 2023 Cap would potentially be a better fighter but watching a great fighter fight doesn't improve your own skill. He didn't train with or under T'Challa and his own fighting style is so different to T'Challa's anyway that there aren't many transferable skills [author0] I was under the impression that he had been training in wakanda between civil war and infinity war, while also going on missions, maybe I’m mistaken. You’re right, he isn’t taskmaster, just seeing or fighting against T’Challa probably wouldn’t be enough to pick up more than one or two tricks, so if that’s as far as the two went then you’re right. Do we know in MCU canon if he had any time training in wakanda? [author1] Huh I've literally never heard that Wakanda thing before but I kinda like it. I'll look into it real quick and see, because you've definitely got a point if it's true. I was under the impression that Cap hadn't seen T'Challa in the flesh since Civil War when he arrived in IW.
Edit: doesn't look like there's much hard evidence to it. As far as I can tell the general consensus is that Cap, Sam and Nat were staying under the radar fighting bad guys during that period. It looks like T'Challa may have helped them escape from The Raft though. [author0] I guess it’s more of a headcanon then that Wakanda would have been kind of home base for them. I don’t think he helped them escape the raft though, for the sake of diplomacy I don’t think king of a sovereign nation can assist in a prison break for the UN’s highest profile international criminals [author1] Well remember that Wakanda was still in the shadows at the time and could have sent a boat discreetly without anyone knowing it was one of the world's poorest countries that supplied it. But yeah it doesn't have to be true, doesn't impact much either way.
Also I do really want to get on board with that headcanon but a few things don't line up for me. Mainly, T'Challa told the Wakandans to get Cap a shield just before the Battle of Wakanda. Surely if he'd frequented Wakanda with their abundance of Vibranium, they would have gotten him a new shield much sooner? [author0] You know right after my last comment I had the same thought. Even if Steve didn’t want a new shield, for whatever reason, they surely would have provided some kind of vibranium weapon or even just a new suit since his was pretty rough during infinity war

[author0] U.S. officials crafting retaliatory actions against China over coronavirus as President Trump fumes [author0] "In private, Trump and aides have discussed stripping China of its “sovereign immunity,” aiming to enable the U.S. government or victims to sue China for damages. George Sorial, who formerly served as a top executive at the Trump Organization and is involved in a class-action lawsuit against China, told The Washington Post he and senior White House officials have discussed limiting China’s sovereign immunity. Legal experts say an attempt to limit China’s sovereign immunity would be extremely difficult to accomplish and [may require congressional legislation](https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/04/29/can-us-sue-china-covid-19-damages-not-really-this-could-quickly-backfire/?tid=lk_inline_manual_8&itid=lk_inline_manual_8).
Some administration officials have also discussed having the United States cancel part of its debt obligations to China, two people with knowledge of internal conversations said. It was not known if the president has backed this idea." [author1] Fuck America, how about countries who are victims of US imperialism past and present sue the US for all the suffering and destruction it has caused and strip it of its sovereign immunity.

[author0] Jokes aside,this is a really good update ! Let's stop the hate and useless complains for one second,the new battle pass as well as the new content is really good.
You asked for grindable guns,they listened.
You asked for better content on battle pass,they listened.
You asked for new modes because the game got boring,they listened.
You asked for bundles(yes i know they have bad content for now but hey,it's the first ever bundles),they listened.
You are **lucky as hell** to have a company that constantly listens and try to please its players,i was previously a PUBGM player and trust me we didn't get even 10 % of what CODM is doing right now.

[author0] Should I move in with someone I just met? So I've met this guy a total of 3 times but he already makes me feel more loved and cared for than anyone else has. He drives 4 hours to my place and back to his just so we can spend time together. We love the same things and are passionate about the same causes. I'm 25 and still live with my mom and lately have realized how toxic living with her is. She's verbally abusive at times and I don't talk to her about anything because she's judgemental as heck. My older sister, who no longer speaks with her, has been telling me ways in which my mom has always cotrolled me and I'm finally seeing that it's true. My mom has control of our finances and I don't have my own bank account. I've expressed my will to leave and this guy told me I could move in with him and he'd help me out, which sounds amazing to me honestly. I just need some advice on the situation as a whole. Thank you! [author1] You need to do some critical thinking about this man. Some men are nice, others put on a charming act in order to get people into vulnerable situations. You do not want your world to get any worse. Investigate this person to see if he is actually who he purports to be.
If he lives 4 hrs. away I suggest you plan a visit. Do you have your own transportation? It's best to be able to leave on your terms not his. Ask to meet his friends. Find out where he hangs out. Learn about his background. Look for discrepancy. Ask for clarification when things don't make sense. If he is angry that you have some questions, that's a red flag. If he was zero friends or acquaintances or neighbors who know him that is also concerning.
This advice may seem over the top and paranoid but the situation you are in now is ripe for manipulation. And manipulative people appear to us as charming and selfless until it's too late and we're already in the trap. Better to go through some preparation now then to post in six months asking how to get out of an abusive relationship. No need to be afraid, you just need to be smart. [author0] Thank you for this awesome advice! I've been checking on everything he's told me and honestly he seems to actually be a genuinely good guy. He's super close to his family, has some great friends, and wants me to meet his neighbors. He's not pushing me to move in with him either it's more like a "if you need a place to go I'm here" sorta deal.

[author0] Religion, what's the point Almost everyone in the world have an opinion about god and religion, I used to. After my dad died last year I realised that theres no point in worrying about what comes after we die or how earth was created. I mean you only live once and you wanna make the most of life dont you. I used to be christian, I used to pray sometimes and now I realise why beg when YOU might just be able to make it happen yourself. Just live in the moment and get on with it. Still when people ask for my religion I just say the thing I'm closest to, a humanist. Just remember next time you're feeling down remember, nobody is ever truly alone in this world and when you're at rock bottom theres nowhere to go but up. [author1] > Just remember next time you're feeling down remember, nobody is here for a reason, and life isnt perfect so stop sulking
Well then, depression cured. Why didn't anybody else think of this. [author0] Yeah I kinda ruined it with the last bit didnt I. I'll change it to be more 'inspirational' [author2] Just remember next time you're feeling down:
Life is a rare and precious thing. And while it's inherently meaningless, it is you who is in control of forging your own path in all that you do. Sure, it can be tough, really tough for some people, but it can also be wonderful. [author0] I love that one

Weight by end of month (200 lbs, preferably trend weight): I'm recovering from some binge days so I believe I haven't gained weight but I sadly fell short of my onederland goal. I will get there soon. 204.8 trend weight.
Stay within calorie range (1500 ish): Not great. I stopped caring about what I was putting in my body. I will do better going forward.
Exercise 5 days a week: Pleased here, would like to keep increasing the intensity & more strength training. 24/30 days.
Self-care time (journaling, working on love journals, beauty treatments, drawing, fancy coffee out no more than 2 times a week 6/10, no fast food): Hits & misses here. I think during this troubling time I need to be better at setting aside time for this & possibly increase my time spent on mental health in general (therapy & reading time especially).
Try a new recipe once a week: Cheesy broccoli & rice casserole, beef burrito casserole, lentil spinach & sausage stew, Frankenstein'd dirty rice & an impromptu garlic Parmesan sauce for chicken legs. Nailed it! 5/4 weeks.
50 pages of The Body Keeps the Score: A little short here but it is a mental health recovery tool so having the energy to get to it versus just staring at the words is important. I'm still counting this as a win. 40/50 pages.
Drawing prompt every day: Would like to be doing this more. 13/30 days
Be more mindful & express gratitude, avoid the hedonic treadmill: This is all for my mental head space. I did way better at the start of the month as far as mental state goes but this is still an important mindfulness win.
Your turn losers! Let's hear it! [author1] Strange month for me. Started out very accepting of our new normal and ready to take it head on. Got to 190.6 and hit a brick wall. It wasn’t even the physical stuff (although the low energy definitely sucked) but the mental stuff. I got such bad cravings and lost all motivation. So switched it up at the end just trying to maintain and take a break. Will do the same next couple weeks before I really smash the last 20 pounds.
- Maintain trend weight: 195.2 today. Basically the same as what I started at, but this is me with a few pounds of water. So an improvement nonetheless.
- Run a 8.5 minute mile (complete, new goal 8 min): got my 8.5 min mile the first week and that was it, no 8 mins yet. But I have a feeling may will be it for me. Gonna shoot for a distance goal next month as well.
- Spring clean (bedroom/closet and get Jeep ready for summer): really slacked on this. Next month.
- Grow neck via neck exercises 3x per week: grew around .6-.7 inches! Very happy with this.
- Reduce waist size: Dropped a quarter inch :)
- spend 30 mins with a loved one everyday: 25/30 May will be even better once this stay at home stuff starts calming down a bit. [author2] You did so incredibly well to adjust to maintenance instead of giving up when things became more difficult. And it's great practice for when you hit your later GW. You've invested so much into yourself, great job! [author1] Thank you so much for the kind words! It’s been so long since I’ve eaten without a goal to either gain or lose weight, so it certainly is good practice. I hope you had a great month and have an even better May :)

[author0] Recommendations for good vanilla extract I've been struggling to find good vanilla extract at the stores to use in cakes or cookies. The scent is either not strong enough or too fake/chemically in some of them. Any recommendations you might have?
Thanks in advance! [author1] Do you have a Costco membership? Their stuff is great and super cheap for how much you get. [author0] I do have a Costco membership I'll try it out. Thanks!

[author0] Fun superpowers! [author1] Social anxiety: people near you are immediately happier, less stressed, and generally feel healthier. They intuitively know that you are the cause of this feeling, and want to feel that way indefinitely (it's addictive). The power of your ability increases based on the number of people, the proximity, and how long they've been around you. They are aware of this too. [author2] aw shit that sounds awful

[author0] Weed Rant so a few days ago i went half and half on an ounce with my boyfriend. today i found out i have a kidney infection, while smoking isn’t the best idea it’s been the only thing to relieve the pain enough for me to relax. well now he isn’t responding or one words me and all the bud is at his house currently. is it wrong of me to text him that i’m coming over to get my half? he literally refused to bring me anything today and would rather me make the 40 minute drive. am i over reacting over bud? [author1] Hell no sis, go get yours! And slap him in the face for the way he’s treating you. [author0] 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[author0] The Ted subplot about debt and the IRS...pointless? So we know Ted was originally introduced to be a short-term love interest for Skyler so she could get away from Walt for awhile. However after that "ends," Ted disappears for a number of episodes until reappearing in late Season 4.
And it's all about Ted still being in debt and Skyler goes to Saul to help him. But in the end...what was the point? Ted had no real point in the show anymore and his subplot was so disconnected from everything else happening in the series at that point I don't even know why they brought it back up. Was it just to give Skyler a subplot or something to do? You could cut Ted's scenes out of Season 4 entirely and barely anything would change. [author1] Without that the money would have been in the crawl space and Walt could have run away with his family.
It also adds to Skyler's character and even further degrades Walt's masculinity [author2] Also gives a sense of futility to all the work/risk that Walt went through. He it did for the family and Skylar gave it away to someone external, so it gives it a sting and that Skylar isn’t “dedicated” to the family or Walt. [author3] It's not like she gave him money cause she had feelings or smth, she was protecting Walt, the IRS would audit the whole White family if Ted failed to pay, since she was his accountant. [author2] Yes, true but Walt I think didn’t know it (can’t remember exactly, think he didn’t know)

[author0] What will I need to do to prepare for the inevitable second wave of COVID 19 in the fall? Obviously, there are a lot of medical experts and epidemiologists recognizing that there will be a second wave in the waning months of 2020 into 2021. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if it happens sooner in the United States given then reopening with it only the 41st best testing per capita and still climbing with 1M+ cases at the minimum.
What will I need to do to prepare for this as a college student? Should I expect to wear a mask wherever I go for the entire year and beyond? If things calm down in the US, should I slowly be preparing supplies for the long run? [author1] I have and will continue to prepare myself by wearing masks and gloves when going to grocery stores etc.. I don’t plan on hoarding toilet paper or anything else. Really just take what you need and leave stuff for the community. I don’t plan on going on any trips and just spending my time with my animals and close friends who I know are also taking precautions [author0] Yeah, I'm not planning on immediately hoarding so much as using the time where things normalize relatively speaking to slowly chip away at emergency supplies. I just want to figure out where people are in looking ahead

[author0] So... What weapons are actually worth using besides the fists...? &#x200B;
[I'm trying to play anything BUT the fists at this point, but what the hell...](https://preview.redd.it/o4p0hayp52w41.png?width=739&format=png&auto=webp&s=c3456c049ac42ad8438c1d26300689601f9c11c4) [author1] dont bother with that board, down below you can see other weapons too. in general hunts you can use anything, with maximum potential every weapon can do about the same time (5-10s difference) [author2] I disagree. The leaderboard is emblematic of the problem. I'm also not convinced that in a normal heroic+ hunt another weapon, say axe, could finish with a similar time to strikers. [author1] Im not familiar with striker speedrun times, but low tier weapons, like axe, repeater, pike can kill most of the heroic behes near/under 30s combat time [author2] I've seen heroic speed runs against skraev (low stagger threshold) where the video starts with its dive bomb attack (which is done pretty rarely -- meaning the runner waited around for some time) booped with a grenade and then the speed runner proceeds to keep it stun locked for the remaining 30 seconds. That's doesn't really count.
I'll concede that against a target dummy, all weapons can probably output similar DPS, but there's a lot more that goes into a weapon. Uptime, mobility, stamina usage etc.
I think it would be cool to see real stats on kill times from start of hunt to completion over a large enough sample size :) I bet you 1 million Rams that we'd see strikers way in the lead with axe, warpike and repeaters at the bottom. [author3] You do realize your arguing with an established speedrunner, who has done plenty of speedruns with all weapons.
Strikers are no joke better, but outside of trials, player power is so high, that all weapons are viable. All can do sub 3 on all behemoths at Heroic/Heroic+

[author0] My mind while browsing this sub knowing damn well I'm not getting XenoblaDE at launch [author1] Iv'e decided to get the physical version for this game so I'm bracing myself for shipment delays [author2] I’m guessing you’re not located in North America, because Walmart will be selling it in store on release day. [author1] True, if it gets delayed too far I'll probs just cancel the preorder and pick it up with the groceries
If not then oof digital it is, XC2 and XCX physical copies forever an incomplete trinity [author3] I’d just wait the time it took to get physical. Buying it digital would be a waste for me since I need to have the game physically. I’d just end up buying it twice.

[author0] We have an intense itch to tell someone else something we know. [author1] You ever wonder what a non carbon base life form would be like? [author0] What other sequence of atoms are there in the universe? [author2] Helium. Cadmium. Zinc. Lead. Copper. Uranium. Germanium. Titanium. Barbecue shrimp. Shrimp cocktail. [author0] You know now more than I do. I guess Create a climate that supports life in a specialized combination/ sequence of those? [author2] Ok, go right ahead [author0] Go computer!
Edited: to answer your first question: my imagination comes into play. I’d like to think that there is a species that, at its it core, is some form of metal.

[author0] Dean breaks my heart On his bachelor party saying “why didn’t she love me” while he falls asleep in Jess’s bed! Saddest thing ever! N it kind of kept going downhill... [author1] Scenes like that really make me annoyed at the adults in their lives. I get that Luke didn't feel like it was his place to meddle.
&#x200B;
But what about Dean and Lindsay's parents? Dean doesn't exactly play his cards close to the vest. His parents had to know, or at least strongly suspect, that Lindsay was a rebound. He'd been so openly hung up on Rory for so many years. [author2] I agree, and how many parents are going to let their kids get engaged in high school?! [author1] I mean, they are 18, so it's not necessarily something they can stop. But Dean respects his parents and is already ambivalent about Lindsay - I can't believe they couldn't at least talk him into a longer engagement if they'd wanted to.

[author0] Cadets are some of the weirdest people I've worked with [author1] At Air Assualt School in Fort Campbell the instructors referred to them as "cadidiots." And whenever a knot was tied wrong on a swiss seat they would call it a West Point. [author2] I was at JMRC augmenting OPFOR for a different unit's rotation
(shockingly as much as it sucks being in the box...doing OPFOR shit is pretty dope. "Fuck yeah you can try to steal that stryker, go for it")
Anywho, I was a team leader at the time but was still a specialist. We were doing our mandated box safety brief at the theater and we got a smoke break. I was standing outside with a bunch of folks BSing and asked one of the cadets how their ranks worked.
"Hey can you tell me how the cadet ranks work? I've seen the horizontal lines and the different size dots but I'm not sure what it actually means"
Dude looks at me and goes "hey SPECIALIST cadets hold the equivalent rank of an E-5, so you need to give me the same respect of customs and courtesy as your NCO"
I was dumbstruck at first and then realized he was serious.(did this motherfucker just tell me to go to parade rest!?) I laughed and went "yeeeaaaah...no". He started to say something back and the commo plt sgt who I was really cool with looked at the guy and said "Hey CADET, you commission yet? Because if not he's got an ACTUAL rank and you don't"
Cadets are like IET soldiers, they just don't quite understand yet. [author3] I was a cadet for 4 years and literally never saw a cadet act like that. Was his name Albert Einstein? [author2] That same smoke break I learned how the cadet ranks work from the other more experienced cadet there that I'm fairly sure wasn't retarded. He also told me this was essentially that kids first real field problem with actual soldiers.
I don't usually care to judge people off appearance but the kid was about 5'4 and looked like the XS short uniform he was wearing hung off him. I assume he heard about the whole "equivalent rank" thing and tried to flex for the first time. The fact that he tried it on an experienced line medic in a combat unit was just bad luck.
Everyone does stupid shit when they're brand new. I'm recently discharged now but I hope that kid is out there somewhere being the best fucken LT he can be.

[author0] [Deck Help] I made this deck without spending any money, any improvements I can make? [author1] Aloof lupine and more copies of thunder dragondark and dragonroar, get rid of dragonmatrix, scapeghost and level up mokuba to get hundred thunders. I would also recommend using a skill like baggy sleeves or grit, also thunder dragons is heavily reliant on the extra deck so what cards are you using in the extra deck? [author0] Dont have much ed but I have like the samurai synchro and michael the lightsworn etc [author1] That should do fine, you might wanna try and pull something late down the line, you could get archfiends call from dark signer kalin kessler or an SR ticket, if you need a level 1 tuner to summon it, d.d sprite does pretty well and you can get one from a ranked UR ticket.

My SO explained to me that it was a "traditional" Japanese futon. What I thought of as a futon, a bench with a thick cushion on is where the back folds all the way back to being horizontal, was a "western" futon. [author4] I thought of How I Met Your Mother where Barney goes to sleep on a friends futon after piercing his own ear.

[author0] People dress up as Blackbeard and Al Capone for Halloween. Which real life notorious “bad guy” will one day also become someone to dress up as for Halloween? [author1] People don't really dress up as Blackbeard and Al Capone all that often; they dress up as pirates and gangsters, both of whom ran large-scale criminal enterprises. It's a generic sort of costume.
The closest thing we've got at the moment -- and it's still a *long* way away -- are things like [inner-city gangs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gangs_in_the_United_States). I don't think the cartels have enough of a 'dress code' to count, but you might feasibly see people dress like [El Chapo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joaqu%C3%ADn_%22El_Chapo%22_Guzm%C3%A1n) due to his distinctive look. [author2] I feel like inner city gangster might not take off because of the racial connotation lmao, I think too many people would just see it as dressing “black” [author3] While you’re not wrong you always see a bunch of Tupac Halloween costumes and that’s pretty much the same as dressing as gang right? You could google 2pac Halloween costumes to see what I mean [author4] 2pac has a couple iconic fits tho. [author3] Yea but so did al Capone and Blackbeard , and it’s their iconic fits that are considered gangster and pirate similar to Tupac and gangs [author4] Maybe they do but Tupac has some fits that are like oh that's Tupac and not just a random gang member or something. Maybe I'm just lacking on my Al Capone and Blackbeard knowledge but I don't know of any of their fits that they wore in a famous picture or on the cover of a magazine or in a music video.

[author0] Tax payments As a dasher, do we need to make tax payments quarterly? [author1] If you don't and you end up owing more than $1000 come tax time, you'll be charged an underpayment penalty which is .5% for every month you owed taxes for. So .5% of Jan taxes x12, .5% of Feb taxes x11 etc. It's up to you if you want to pay quarterly or just take the penalty for convenience of not dealing with quarterly. [author0] I won’t owe more than $1000 but no matter what, there shouldn’t be a penalty because I have a choice to do annual or quarterly [author1] The penalty is just for anyone who underpaid during the year by over $1000. [author0] So you’re pretty much saying to play it safe and do quarterly payments? [author1] Yes [author0] Okay, I’ll definitely do that then. Thank you for your help!

In a few days I'll have a looping pedal so I can perform the whole piece and create a more professional looking performance. [author1] I look forward to hearing the whole thing! [author0] Thank you!

[author0] Mary [author1] First off, could you maybe post in a way that doesn't accidentally cover up the meme and maybe crop? Also, it's not like Mary started Christianity. If you'd believe it, the chap who really got Christianity going was called Christ. [author2] The people who really got Christianity going where the people who made up stories about him walking on water or rising from the dead [author1] But that required at the very least the existence of a Jesus with enough charisma to attract those people to him. If he didn't preach and get killed, why would he even be remembered? [author2] Alright, I see your point there.

[author0] Santa Cruz County extends shelter-in-place order indefinitely, changes restrictions [author1] > Golf courses and driving ranges can reopen
I love how this made the list. [author2] So easy to enable social distancing at golf courses and most ranges. Golf courses are basically parks that charge a fee and can restrict numbers. No reason not to open them with some safety protocols in place. It made the list because it’s another bullet point that looks like progress and makes government look good, but one of the easiest things to reopen. [author3] The issue with this though is that people from different households will most likely play together. To me it’s an easy point to add but one that will increase spread [author4] Well shit at what point would you like people to finally interact again then? When the virus is gone entirely because that’s not the right answer [author3] When there is adequate testing. If people are fine to play golf together then others will say “fine I’ll have people to my house” and the complacency sets in. At that point we may as well not have many restrictions at all. [author4] There is adequate testing though? Anyone with any of the symptoms can get tested for free in the Bay Area last I heard [author3] You know people can be asymptomatic and spread the disease right? [author4] Yes. You gonna require everyone to get tested then? That’s going to be problematic. I get what you’re getting at here and id jump at the chance to get a test without symptoms but not long ago we couldn’t even get tests for people with symptoms so we’ve passed a lot of obstacles already [author3] Ideally yes but that’s unrealistic. As much as everyone hates being stuck indoors, we have done great and with obstacles around testing and tracing already in place I just feel the relaxing of some of these restrictions is unnecessary.
I do however also understand that my situation is better than others in that I’m able to work from home still. [author4] Lots of people can’t work from home (including me) and this is a very necessary step for many people. Still agree with you on the testing everyone being available but it’ll slow down things so much if someone “thinks they walked by someone with the virus and wants to get a test”
Serological tests are a different story and I’m all for those being available

[author0] Microsoft Teams Room question/feedback Using Microsoft Teams Room hardware I see that there are options for a direct HDMI connection with several of the hardware vendors. I would assume this allows someone to plug into HDMI port to project in the meeting vs using the Teams app and sharing your desktop.
My question is does this HDMI connection support a MacBook to be displayed in the Teams Room meeting or is it Windows PC only?
We are looking at the Teams Room hardware but not sure if there are any issues, or if anyone has any feedback from real world usage? [author1] MacBook is fine. It’s literally a HDMI In port. You could plug a PS4 into it. [author0] Are you using Team Rooms? Any feedback vs a wireless display adapter? [author1] What kind of feedback are you after? They’re very different things. Having Teams Rooms set up means users can walk in and tap Join on the touchscreen for any meeting the room was invited to and they’ll be in the call. One touch. A wireless display adapter doesn’t do anything like that.
If your only concern is presenting from laptops to the screen in the same room as the laptop, and you don’t need video conferencing at all, then a wireless display adapter is a heap cheaper. It just does a very different job. [author0] Yes they are very different, but due to the COVID situation the truth is more people are now doing remote meetings. I guess the key would be if there is going to be a big push to do more remote meetings vs in person meetings.
We have conference rooms with display adapters but no Team rooms. I would guess this would be a discussion internally

[author0] I am writing a story that takes place in a scorching-like apocalypse, and here is it's cover. Meet Denver, an Icewing living in the former USA in 2108. [author1] i am confused and interested in this at the same time. care to give some more details to me? [author0] Sure! Here is a (very) Brief summary.
Dragons came from Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. To be specific, the Starwings did, a tribe that looks much like the Seawings do now, but with weaker lungs and wings. The dragons took advantage of a troubled USA in a period of decline, and systematically reorganized the government into the Dragon empire after the second civil war (2085-2088) However, the population was 99 percent humans...
*Until Operation Firescale.*
This massive government project involved hundreds of researchers, reaching a crescendo in July 4, during the (reportedly enemy) nuclear barrage on the Empire. The next day, Denver woke up in a hospital, without any memories, with a scar on his face, and the deep feeling something was amiss.
That is when he looked is hands, and saw they were talons.
Throughout the book, Denver and some other dragons he meets try to unravel what happened that night, and why Denver didn't think he was a dragon. At the same time, Denver's girlfriend, Lira, travels across the nation to save two humans who are trying to survive the fallout.
But more on that will be next time! [author2] GET THIS IN HOT! It's such a relief to see that someone else agrees that the WOF world is earth! [author0] It's definitely earth. Why else would there be the exact same species of plant and animal? [author1] I to believe that the WOF world is earth in a different state. I wish that you make a fanfic on this. I would totally read it! [author0] It's coming, although since it is so far removed from wings of fire, it may even be fully publishable as its own series. I can post a small peice soon. [author1] removed from wings of fire? do you mean the Wings of Fire Fanon wiki? [author0] I mean, they have so little in common. The only thing is the tribes, and even they have changed names during the period. for example, Icewings are Polarians

[author0] my 4 week old malnourished runt foster kitty atsushi all tucked in after a flea bath [author1] What did you use for the flea bath? [author0] dawn soap, although his flea infection is so bad we’re getting flea shampoo tomorrow [author1] Don't! This little one is too young to use flea shampoo. See the Kitten Lady's resources on dealing with fleas on kittens: http://www.kittenlady.org/fleas [author0] since he got his bath today should we just use a flea comb tomorrow? sorry were new to fostering and have never fostered one this young [author1] The best I can suggest is to follow the Kitten Lady's advice. She's got a lot of resources on her website that I'm betting will be useful.
And thank you for taking care of this tiny one.

[author0] I'm no anatomy expert but I think my hand malfunctioned. [author1] Did you remove a beaver tail? It looks like it had one previously that was ground off? [author0] Nope, that's the tail that came with the gun. [author1] Interesting. I assume you bought it new then. May I ask the model? [author0] Yeah I got it new, it's an RIA GI series. At least that is what they are going by now. Got this quite some time ago. Doesn't have that neat little logo on the back of the slide. Had "ROCK ISLAND ARMORY" engraved in big bold words down the slide. Definitely like the looks of the newer ones. [author2] I have one from cimarron. Yes she bites. I’ve learned to wear gloves while shooting it. Other than that I’ve had no issues with her. [author0] I think it will be gloves from now on with this one. Especially with hotter loads.

[author0] Need suggestions! What season should I watch next! I just watched New York from start to finish and I finally caught up. Which season would be good to start next?
I lovedddd New York and I’ve watched all of Potomac and loved it. I’ve also watched the most recent season or two of Beverly Hills, New Jersey and OC - are any of them good ones to start from season 1? Or should I try Atlanta or Dallas?
Any suggestions are great! :) [author1] How are you watching them? The Bravo app? [author0] I use heyu - it’s $5.99 a month and has so much reality/bravo content! (I’m in Canada I’m not sure if it’s Canadian)

[author0] Who are characters you're indifferent about? Talking about characters you don't really like or dislike and are just average to you. Like if you were making a favorite characters list with all the characters in the series, they would be exactly in the middle of that list. [author1] Shinso, Gran Torino, AfO, Toga, Twice, Magne, Nejire, Aoyama, Sato, Ojiro, Uraraka...
I think that it's all. [author2] > Twice
Didn't think I was gonna see this tbh. [author1] I mean, I like how Hori handle him and all but like, I'm just neutral with him.

[author0] Modern Warfare worth buying now? Hey guys,
i´ve been playing warzone now for a few days with some of my friends and its pretty funny, so i want to play multiplayer for leveling weapons and the overall mp experience, is it worth buying now or is multiplayer kinda dead and not so fun like the old cods? [author1] If you like only using meta in a fast TTK game, it’s meant for you. Outside of that, everything besides core game modes has diversity in guns hardcore, GW, etc. I mean this game didn’t seem bad in the beginning to me, but as time goes on, more updates, newer glitches...idk, it’s up to you. [author2] Even in Core you can compete without Meta guns. [author1] Tell that to the people on shoot the ship.....

[author0] 2020 has me expresso depresso I just wanna see what this new sonic game is already. Im not complaining about them being safe or anything like that. That’d be just stupid. But it just suuuuuucks to know that we would’ve known what the next sonic game was going to be by now if it weren’t for a damn pandemic.
Well...at least I can look forward to a Nintendo direct soo-**FUCK** [author1] Patience blessed us during the sonic movie delay, and patience will hopefully bless us now.
Just think of how Sonic 06 simultaneous ended the adventure days and had a great game come right after. Hopefully we’ll get that kind of thing with Forces :D [author0] Yeah hopefully! I’m hoping the next sonic game sees a return to the adventure formula, but I’m ok with anything as long as it’s fun and shows promise!

[author0] Maryland hiding testing kits, purchased from South Korea, from US government: Hogan [author1] Truly a sad state of affairs. Everyone in this administration needs to be held accountable for their actions. [author2] You do fucking realize that the democ-rats ALSO contributed to this? Not just the bailouts for the rich(which is just embezzlement but fools 95% of the people) and Obama obliterating healthcare?
&#x200B;
THEY ALL ARE CROOKS AND IMBECILES! Look who the fucking democrats are running this time? A senile rapist! You stupid fucks never learn do you? [author1] Someone needs a Snickers [author2] Says the psychopath. Go back to sucking Obamas cock and playing the us vs them game! [author1] So much anger [author2] So much stupidity.

[author0] AITA for getting my Girlfriend a lower quality product on purpose as an anniversary gift? Ok so to keep it short. GF (20F) and I (20M) are having our anniversary in a few weeks. I've been looking for something to give her thats just a bit different than your typical jewelry and chocolates. Well she's studying astrophysics atm (completing her masters), and tbh I've never been more proud of her. So I really wanted to get something personal for her.
Well, I thought about one of those Planetarium projectors for your room (she has a star gazing app on her phone), so I thought it would be a great idea. I had gotten her one when we first started dating (2 years ago), but it was a cheap $15 one that I saw and thought she would like. We turned it on and the motor was a little loud (not obnoxiously so, but enough that you could hear it). She has sworn that she loved it because it was white noise for when she slept and really helped her sleep.
I didn't believe her at first, but when I stayed over she would always demand to keep it on (she couldn't sleep otherwise). I was pretty chuffed that my small gift meant so much to her.
Well when I went Looking online I found alot, all very expensive (I have a decent income and no major expenses so I wasn't too worried). However I found one that had one of the cons as "motor is a little loud, but easily ignorable"; apart from that there were zero issues with it (close to top of the line). I thought it would be fantastic because the white noise would help her sleep, and it would show accurate stars.
Man I was so excited I immediately told my sister, mum and bff, they all said that I should have gone for the higher end one (considering I could afford it), and that by getting the lower quality product I was being cheap.
So AITA? Should I have gotten something a bit nicer? I'm just really confused. [author1] I’m confused... are you buying her almost the same gift twice? [author0] No the first one was a cheap $15 one that pretty much shows cartoon stars. The one I got was a proper Planetarium projector that would project the different star systems and what not. Tbh I'm not totally into stars so I don't know the right terminology [author1] Ok that makes much more sense and I think that it’s probably best to stick to your guts and get the cheaper one. You would know best anyway. NTA

[author3] How, and are are the only 2 they appear to have used correctly. Kindergarten grasp of language?
I refuse to believe this is an insanepeoplefacebook post, this is mocking people with special educational needs for being poor at things. What gives OP? That's fucking viscious

[author0] Rally Roads I really wish we got more roads that were like rally stages, narrow fast dirt roads that link together well. All of the dirt roads that we have dont require the best of skill as they are gigantic with even more space on each side before you hit anything. It's just really lackluster for a rally boy like me [author1] So make your own track with narrow gates so you have to be precise. There are plenty of them out there. I don't know any share codes right off the top of my head though.
But tbh I think you are asking a bit much from a game that has a jack of all trades thing going. You can drift, off road, rally and road race... but none of them are 10/10 experiences. But I can drift in my 1,000hp jeep or go off road in a Maserati. If you want hard core rally get a game specific for just rally. But I may just be ornery. [author0] It's not about the gates it's about the road itself. They're as wide as the asphalt roads around the map yet they are meant to be forest roads in the wilderness. [author1] But if you set a bunch of gates close together you could make the path you had to take much narrower than the actual lane.
Think like an autocross track in a parking lot. Yeah there is no barriers except the cones(gates) keeping you in a tight and difficult track. Maybe angle the gates so they appear narrower while traveling down the road.

[author0] First Job Offer Withdrawn I am a new graduate (January 2020), and I accepted my first position in a Nurse Residency program on my dream unit at the end of March. It was suppose to start May 10th but about a week after accepting the position the start date was changed to August 10th. I was bummed but understood that training resources and educators were being used to support the frontlines. Today, just as I crossed into my new home state (I moved practically across the country) I received a phone call from a recruiter in the health system that they are withdrawing my offer of employment and canceling the residency program.
I'm devastated, stressed, and anxious. If anyone has any advice or positive vibes it would be greatly appreciated. I miss nursing. I'm ready to start my career but today just made it seem practically impossible. [author1] I had something similar happen. I was pretty broken up about it. Turns out, my absolute dream job was waiting for me to find it instead. I am soooooo happy that I didn’t get the original job. Trust in the universe. It’s goal is your happiness. [author0] Thank you 😊 [author2] Had a similar instance! Had a job lined up before I graduated, then they decided they "weren't hiring new nurses" shortly before I took boards (they then hired two brand new nurses six months later). But I took a position on another unit which I love and still work at four years later!
I know this situation is tough but hang in there! You will find an amazing job I promise [author0] Thank you ❤️

[author0] Help diagnosing shake 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse 6spd manual 6cyl
Under heavy load / hard acceleration, I feel a vibration in the steering wheel, seemingly coming from somewhere in the front end. Feels like unbalanced wheels. But, at any speed, under light or no acceleration, there is no shake whatsoever.
I brought the car to a mechanic. They ruled out motor mounts and ball joints, and suggested new axles. Put new axles in, and the problem remained the same. Next, the mechanic suggested the problem was axle binding from the car being lowered. Tried adjusting the height up 1/2 inch, no change at all.
The weird part is that I can do two pulls, back to back...same gear, same start speed, same end speed, same throttle application, and get two different results. One time the shake will be nearly imperceptible, the next time it will be very noticeable.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your thoughts. [author1] This might not help, but I'd agree it sounds like axles. I've probably only ever gotten 4 or 5 defective axles over the years, but one time it was an axle diagnosis on a rig with a shaking problem. Then I put new axles in it and it still shook. I was confident in the original diag so went out on a limb a little ways, chewed out our parts supplier and had him get me another set of axles. Which took care of the problem.
Of course, being lowered might also be a problem. And I'd also want to verify that the lower control arm bushings are in good shape. [author0] If it were lower control arm bushings, would that be likely to cause vibration on heavy braking too?
This theory is interesting to me, as it may help explain why the vibration is so inconsistent, as the road surface condition can play a lot into the stress on the lower control arm. [author1] Vibration on heavy braking is one of the symptoms of lower control arm bushing issues. [author0] No vibration or instability at all under heavy braking. But, I do feel shaking under heavy deceleration when the clutch is engaged. Also, if i feather the gas during peak torque areas (around 3-4.5k RPM), then go wide open throttle, no shake.

If you do the last quest, there's a chance Launch or Pilaf will appear and drop gems. [author0] Thank that helps a lot cuz I was having trouble finding them👍 [author1] No problem, glad i could help!

[author0] Jokes aside,this is a really good update ! Let's stop the hate and useless complains for one second,the new battle pass as well as the new content is really good.
You asked for grindable guns,they listened.
You asked for better content on battle pass,they listened.
You asked for new modes because the game got boring,they listened.
You asked for bundles(yes i know they have bad content for now but hey,it's the first ever bundles),they listened.
You are **lucky as hell** to have a company that constantly listens and try to please its players,i was previously a PUBGM player and trust me we didn't get even 10 % of what CODM is doing right now.
&#x200B;
*Good job and thanks for the update.* [author1] Agreed this season and content is the best we’ve gotten in a while. The F2P skins are amazing this time around and there are even “realistic camos” for people who complained about the lack of them last season.
while I agree the bundles we started off with suck and I hate that we got no bundles for the new stuff I’ll hold off on my criticism until we see the other bundles we get from April as they’ve stated that they’ll release more over this entire month of May.
Also I did initially hate the fact that the task were removed from the BP but the new way is starting to grow on me another disappointment is the lack of cash back event again but overall this update is pretty damn good and there are lots to do to keep me preoccupied. [author2] Played this game for few hours after the update and my reaction was "damn this is an awesome update so many good things" and then I went to community post and everyone there wants to murder codm devs instead lmao. [author3] cause of the bundles lol. Also codm community is mostly filled with full of ungrateful idiots.

[author0] Extreme Arousal During Workout?! Well I have had the damndest thing happen to me lately. I’m getting literally hard when weight lifting. Like super horny, have to go inside and take care of it and come back out. I’ve been on T less than a year, and this is a new thing in the last couple of weeks.
Anyone else have this happen? I read that this can happen to cis guys due to testosterone spikes, but as I don’t make my own T I don’t think this is the case.
Halp! When I start going to a public gym again this is going to be a PROBLEM. A fun problem, but a problem nonetheless. [author1] This would happen to me occasionally way pre-T. The body sometimes just LOVES the blood pumping all over. That includes your genitals. It happens, and you needing to take care of business is just a natural thing. [author0] Thank you! It’s nice to know I’m not crazy.
