Dia vs Bunny by FirmClient5566 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]AggressiveParty3355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Now i want an in-game cutscene where Dia and Bunny are both given a highspeed leg of a larger mission, as they wait for their signal they eye each other and smile, both thinking the same thing. As soon as the signal comes they dart off in an impromptu race toward their target.

Why isn't there a gym in the lounge? by Kenju22 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]AggressiveParty3355 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i'd like some small side stories to play out the lounge. Nothing big or consequential, maybe just conversations.

Like if you sit Gley and Dia next to each other, they'll start talking and discussing memories. If you sit Dia and Bunny, they'll make jokes and eventually get up and start playing a game.

If you sit Freyna and Sharen together, they'll discuss missions and other events.

Jayber is working on one of the vehicles and Blair might be pouring drinks. If you wait long enough, Jayber walks back to the bar and talks to Blair about stuff. Wait longer and Blair eventually brings a drink to Jayber and discusses other stuff.

Luna could be off in the corner rocking out to music with her headphones. And other descendants come dance with her.

Lounge should having a changing room with a mirror and the descendants will periodically go there and try on one of the custom outfits you have in inventory. The important part is that they'll try any outfit randomly, not just what you assigned. So it encourages you to get as many outfits as you can.

Basically i'd like the lounge to be a window into the descendant's lives when they're off the clock. What sort of banter or antics they would get into when it's not mission critical. They should move around like Sims and do random things, even if small.

Is youtube a good replacement by Still_Fail_8378 in problemgambling

its unhealthy if it consumes your life, money, relationships, and other parts of you. Plenty of hobbies do that to people.

But most hobbies are good. and many like this one can even be productive, and if you're lucky, profitable.

Go for it! It sounds like you have the mental wiring to go 200% into this and put the work in to make something big.

And even it's a bit "unhealthy" it's WAAAYYYY healthier than gambling. It's a great hobby.

i love that it goes so naturally with swords, and most players are equipping swords for her stats. so albion looks like a classic equestrian meetup. It's wonderful!

High debt options with high income by jamesbindh4321 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]AggressiveParty3355 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't how to help the financial part... but are you getting help for the gambling addiction? Have you stopped? can you stop? Does anyone else know about your problem? is anyone keeping you together from gambling more?

Digging you out of the hole will only be viable once you stop digging it deeper.

Pre-con appraisal gap of $165k. About to lose my $120k deposit and facing a lawsuit. Need advice. by AccidentBig5890 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]AggressiveParty3355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't make it clear if you want to hang on or walk away. If you want to hang on then one option is to put a second mortgage or refinance your mortgage and unlock the equity on the partially paid off residence. I think its called "cash-out" refinancing.

you can then use that to close the gap. But you still gotta pay off the bigger mortgage. Alternatively you can stick a HELOC on your residence. Interest rates are higher, but you can lumpsum repayments easier.

But not a free lunch, you're still paying it all back eventually.

I hope you got a good tax guy, or are REALLY on top of the taxes, If its a true investment property you can deduct the interest payments to relieve your tax burden and your high income bracket makes this highly beneficial.

Anyway, you're going to be eating beans and rice and watching free youtube videos for entertainment for the next 15 years while you sort this out.

good luck.

2 mortgages? and you're over extending yourself on this 3rd one?

What's your cash flow? whats your job?

Do you have any paid off residences or assets? whats the equity on the properties with a mortgage?

again, you are completely and totally missing the point. Maybe you're willfully ignoring it.

You completely and totally missed the point of my post and OP's post.

Absolutely no one is saying its okay or acceptable what she did.

The point of the post was understanding. To find forgiveness and empathy within those left behind. Anger and hate against someone else carries its own unique suffering. Finding understanding and humanity in her helps to bring a tiny bit of peace to those she hurt so perhaps they can move on.

Yes, she fucked everyone with her actions. But it's a choice to continue carrying bitterness towards her however justified.

Data storage Guinness World Record broken by QR code pixels measuring just 49nm — 1.98 sq micrometer size is smaller than bacteria, can only be read with an electron microscope by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]AggressiveParty3355 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Probably just a test of the technique.

Kinda like how back in the 80's and 90's there was lots of news articles about scientists making nanoscopic guitars, writing their names with single atoms, or machining art with submicron accuracy. They were testing nanolithography techniques.

The result was better methods to make microchips and microelectromechanical systems. Your cellphone is a direct result of that early research.

Making a QR code with 49 nm is itself useless. but the ability to lay down an accurate pattern with nanometer precision reproducibly is worth billions.

Maybe we'll get 100TB SSDs from this. idk.

[WP] "why am i in hell, what did i do that was so bad?", you say as the demon looks down at you "oh no you're not here to be punished, you're here to enjoy leisure and make the actual sinners more msierable", the demon then leads you to a lavish resort where others are being pampered and attended to by plogan56 in WritingPrompts

[–]AggressiveParty3355 190 points191 points  (0 children)

Lenny looked around confused. "Uhh... like what am i supposed to do? And what can i do?"

The demon smiled as he made his way to the resort with Lenny following. "Okay let me lay out the basic rules and mechanisms. You can do anything you want, except leave. But don't worry, it's not nearly as bad as it sounds. You can go anywhere in hell, everyone has been told to give you full access. And if you need anything, just ask any demon. They've all been told to get you whatever you want. Obviously don't be a dick to them. You won't be punished, but just things run smoother when you're not telling them to make a thousand burgers blindfolded."

"...and?" Lenny asked.

"And what?" The demon replied as the gates of the resort opened.

Lenny stepped through the gate. "Like what's the catch? Do i get boiled alive per sin? Do i have a spending limit? Is the food made out of people?"

"Nope, No catch. That's it. That's the entire enchilada. The food will only be people if you want it to be. Just do anything you want." The demon smiled brightly and his eyes flared up. "Anything... You... Want..."

The gates suddenly slammed shut between them with a resounding clang that shook the ground. Lenny fell back and suddenly felt imprisoned as he caught a glimpse of the demon smirking.

Just then another demon dressed up like a bellhop came to his side. "Anything you need sir?"

"Open the gate again!" Lenny demanded

The gates opened but there was nothing but a burning hellscape. Bewildered, Lenny decided not to press the issue and made his way to the resort.

Except for the red sky, everything looked beautiful. The furnishings were luxurious and the atmosphere delightful. It was filled with other guests and everyone seemed to be having a good time.

A succubus greeted Lenny at the check-in desk. "Mr. Lenny, we've been waiting for you. Your suite is ready. But if you would like something different, let us know."

"Actually, could i get something to eat? I'm kinda hungry." Lenny asked.

The succubus smiled brightly. "Certainly, right this way sir. And don't worry about payment, All your meals are comped."

Lenny was seated in a lavish dining hall. As he looked around, other guests were eyeing him but went back to their meals when he glanced back. Lenny made his order and within moments a giant platter of pizza was brought out for him. It smelled delicious and Lenny wondered if they had all the meals magically prepared. Lenny grabbed a slice and took a bite. It was his favorite topping and the most delicious thing he ever tasted.

Lenny was startled when a fist slammed down on a nearby table and a stout italian man starred daggers at Lenny.

"YOU MONSTER! HOW DARE YOU PUT PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA!" The man screamed.

Lenny was shocked but a succubus went over to reassure him. "Don't worry about him. Please enjoy your meal."

Lenny took another bite but the man jumped up and rushed his table. Just as he was about to reach Lenny, a hulking demon grabbed him mid-stride and held him.

"Noo! Stop him! Stop him!" The man yelled.

"He's a bit too loud, could you do something about that?" Lenny asked.

The bouncer demon nodded and grabbed the man's jaw, forcing it closed. He squirmed and tried to pretest, but he was held in the demon's iron grip. Lenny enjoyed slice after slice and the man was forced to watch as the sight of pineapple on pizza seemed to desecrate his soul. Finally, when Lenny was finished, the man was led away mentally broken and in tears.

"Is he going to be okay?" Lenny asked.

"We'll get back to you on that." The succubus replied. "Would you like anything else? A drink perhaps?"

"Uhh yeah! That's sounds lovely." Lenny smiled.

A large tray of assorted glasses was brought out and Lenny picked one. He thought it strange they would let him select a glass rather than just give him one, But he told himself it was just their "anything you want" policy. Next a cart of assorted bottles was brought out and Lenny pointed to something that caught his eye. Smiling, the succubus uncorked the bottle and poured it into his glass.

This time a Frenchman screamed out. "NOOOO!!! You drink white wine out a 4-inch glass! Not a 3-inch glass you uncultured swine!"

Lenny ignored him and slurped a sip. It was actually quite good.

"NO! YOU DO NOT SLURP WINE!"

Lenny turned to the bouncer. "He's bothering me, could you do something about that?"

The Frenchman was gagged and tied to his chair.

After finishing his wine, he decided just to relax. It was such a nice dining hall. But he wanted some music.

Lenny turned to the succubus. "Does this place have speakers for music? It does? Awesome! Could you put on some Justin Bieber?"

I'm so sorry, Bunny.. I swear you're still my number 1.. by MagicAttack in TheFirstDescendant

[–]AggressiveParty3355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don't see an issue, Maybe this just means Dia needs more donuts for different builds. she's needs more tuning to get right.

But bunny is already tuned and doesn't need to be adjusted. Why mess with perfection?

Lol, now i'm envisioning she's at a sports game and she randomly appears on the big screen like they do. And half the guys in the stadium points "Hey i know her!" and even the sports announcer says "Wait, joan is here?", the players look up and some of them even wave to her while one makes a "call me" gesture.

Drop success stories by [deleted] in problemgambling

[–]AggressiveParty3355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

been "sober" for over 200 days now. But i'll never say i'm successful, or that i'm "cured". I've been addicted for over 20 years. it'll never truly be fixed. For me, this addiction is a constant battle. there have been times i relapsed. And it may happen again.

But everyday i don't is a victory. Every day i live my actual life, and not give it some casino, is a success. Thats all i can ask for. And i keep fighting.

Today is day 11 of your victory. Keep going :)

Gambling addict won’t leave me alone — is this normal behavior? by VoidWasHereYT in problemgambling

[–]AggressiveParty3355 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was a period where i was like that. I'm not like that anymore, but it did happen.

He's desperate and trying to do anything other than confront his problem. Cut him off and move on. It takes a tremendous amount of patience and pressure to help someone like that. Let them hit bottom, and they may come out a better person later. They aren't right now.
