Lol I definitely saw the viral rush event stuff, I just assumed it was a community goal without a modifier. I had no idea what was going on.

Felt pretty certain there was something I was missing but I didn't manage to piece together that it was because of the event... 🤦

WafflesForOne

Oh god now I feel dumb lmao.

Thanks.

This is a very old comment, but no (good) relationship counsellor would ever chastize an individual for prioritizing their needs in a relationship. That's what you're supposed to do.

You need to make your needs known and recognize when they aren't being fulfilled. Putting others needs before your own is nice in theory, but doing it constantly in a relationship leads to resentment. Self sacrifice is not healthy. You should never be in a relationship where the entire basis is you putting the other person's needs ahead of your own. That's a great way to end up hating each other lmao.

There is a world of difference between self care and selfishness. Not a lot of people seem to recognize that.

I'm not exactly sure about these kind of things since I'm not a game developer, but generally taking workshop content/mods and implementing them into games is a somewhat tricky concept. Sanctioning mods is their method of doing this and it works fine. These mods are tiny and primarily simple UI changes, so it's not like having a dozen of them is a big deal. They don't really conflict with each other. It boils down to credit and ownership of this kind of content. You're looking at them giving credit/payment to these creators for all these small implementations and that can get pretty complicated. This is also a game nearing the end of its life cycle within the next couple years. They're more likely to implement this stuff in Darktide but it simply isn't going to happen in this game.

Whaaaaat. I was wondering why it wasn't working for me... What a strange bug.

WafflesForOne

Aside from claptrap, the first two games weren't nearly as cringey and had some legitimately funny moments. 3 is far worse with far more regularity.

WafflesForOne

It's also very annoying the beam staff.

Yeah I have 5 guitars but only two are remotely similar.

I've been working in kitchens for about 5 years and the current job I have is by far the best I've had because the owners are hardly there at all. They let the chef and sous chef take care of everything, and they're two of the nicest dudes I've ever met. I'm still getting out of the industry due to money primarily. The only way I'd stay is running my own kitchen and I don't think I could handle that workload with my fucked up body. Baking maybe.

There's actually some legitimately great knives on AliExpress. I'm probably gonna order a Dengjia or Shi Ba Zi cleaver for $40 CAD. Keemake and Xinzuo supposedly make pretty good stuff using AUS10 and VG10 steels. Lots of Chinese manufacturers use 9cr18mov or 10cr15comov which are quite good steels. You can get some duds for sure due to poor quality control, but some stuff is great value. ChefPanko on YouTube has a lot of videos reviewing AliExpress knives; he's great.

WafflesForOne

That's bizarre. I've been working in kitchens for 6 years and where I live people don't care about culinary school at all; especially if you're working as a line cook. Prep is a bit of a different beast where culinary education can actually make a difference, but I've never seen it as a requirement. Experience is generally valued a lot more.

I have an Epiphone goth Explorer, and after upgrading the humbuckers and changing the nut, it's my favorite guitar.

I definitely think Bloodborne has the best bosses by a long shot.

WafflesForOne

The stamina and weapon degradation in that game pissed me off so much...

WafflesForOne

Yeah, that is for sure a made up sob story to try get upvotes if that's what he's claiming.

WafflesForOne

A huge percentage of the cases in my province have been from Hutterite colonies. If one of them get it they all get it.

Just gonna copy what I replied to somebody else with:

It's mostly because when people say they're bisexual, it implies, (to me at least,) an attraction to both masculinity and femininity. Because I don't view attraction as a matter of gender, I'm essentially using gay/straight/bisexual and androphile/gynephile/ambiphile interchangeably because those aren't terms used by most people. These words really only give you a basic glimpse into someone's sexuality. Whatever you personally feel will give somebody the most accurate idea of your sexuality in one word is what you should use, I suppose. It doesn't tell you all that much, however.

Again, this is just the fixation on labels I dislike. If people actually want to know the intimate details of my sexuality for whatever reason I'm open to sharing with them. I'm not ashamed of anything I feel. Sexuality us just too complicated to be boiled down to three choices.

WafflesForOne

The only thing that makes it hard to show people that movie are the awful CGI fights with the baby and the cow.

WafflesForOne

That's why I'm saying it's more complicated than gender. Like I said, I personally say I'm straight but I don't care. I don't hide the fact I've had sex with men, I'm just not attracted to probably 99% of men. I don't feel saying I'm bi is accurate even though saying I'm straight isn't accurate either. It's easier to say I'm straight than to explain the specifics of my sexuality. It's not about denying my sexuality, it's more indifference. If people want to call me bi I really don't care and I won't fight them on it. You could more accurately say I'm a gynephile, but I don't care to call myself such.

WafflesForOne

There absolutely are. The problem, I feel, is actually equating sexuality to a preferred gender and not other criteria like masculine/feminine qualities. Attraction is a complicated thing that includes a lot more factors than just "male or female." I generally don't have much attraction to men, but I'm attracted to femininity and I don't really care about gender. I consider myself straight, but I've had sex with men who possess more feminine qualities and would be open to dating a man if I met the right person. It's simply because obviously, women are generally more feminine and men are generally more masculine. My girlfriend thinks I'm bi, but I don't really care how my sexuality is referred to. I think there's probably a lot of men like me who simply aren't attracted to "masculinity," but they don't want to be considered gay or bi due to stigma. The way we think about sexuality is just too rigid in general.

The way people have talked about this girl for years without knowing anything about her is super fucked up. She's been used as a punchline for so many shitty memes and jokes, and I guarantee she's seen a lot of them. She's still such an optimistic and caring person. Lizzie Velásquez is a gem.

WafflesForOne

No, I haven't. I remember being very disappointed with Revolver and didn't really keep up with his movies after that. I'll have to give the gentlemen a watch.

WafflesForOne

Wait that movie was directed by Guy Ritchie? Why?! Snatch is one of my favorite movies of all time, and Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels isn't far behind. Seems like a very odd choice for Aladdin...

WafflesForOne

For people concerned about prices, the Epiphone SG pro is actually very decent. I like to buy cheaper guitars and then mod them however I like to really make them my own. A lot of people think modding Gibsons is heresy or something. With a pickup/replacement and some light neck sanding it sounds and plays fantastic. Also I wanted an arctic white SG and it's very hard to find a Gibson one lol.
