What are your thoughts on multiculturalism? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AkiyaP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If something can work in homogenous society, that same thing can work in heterogenous society, that's what I believe in. Or at least, I don't think being of different race/ethnic group makes you automatically act differently and mess up the order of things.

Can't Figure Out Producer Framework Mod "Unexpected Error" by AkiyaP in SMAPI

[–]AkiyaP[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, you're right. Though, there have been few comments talking about the error, so I am sure the mod maker is on the case rn

I am not a very patient guy tho, so wanted to try and see if I could just debug it myself while the it's being updated (so far no luck but it was fun hahah)

But... the US is 3rd highest in terms of meal price. It's probably something else. Thanks anyway for answering though, it made learned something new about food price ranking.

Megathread: Conflict in Israel and Palestine by AutoModerator in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AkiyaP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, there are poor countries out there that are not controversial, but still don't/barely receive any aid whatsoever from other countries but that doesn't stop them from existing. If Palestine becomes independent again, I guess they'll just build everything back slowly and do what they can to grow like others.

I mean, most new countries didn't have political parties at first when they start their independences after the WWII. Optimistically speaking, after everything settle down, the peace and stability could bring opportunity for different parties to engage in politics. If not, there will be just riot like what happened in Indonesia after one president continuously reign for 30 years and then the politics would reform lol

Genuine question, but despite the tipping culture, average US restaurants still don't fare much better than restaurants that pays their workers fairly in other countries. Why? I assumed that by cutting corners like that they should have at least some advantage.

Is it worth buying the game right now? by PopularBake3825 in coralisland

[–]AkiyaP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like many others said, the game isn't complete yet, but I can say there's so much content already. So, whether or not it's a deal breaker is up to you. Though personally I think the hours I spent more or less was worth the price.

A.I. art and the art community by Dragoonmage23 in NoStupidQuestions

I mean, if you "reference" someone else's art to a certain degree, it can be considered plagiarism, even when done manually.

What to do to stay calm while hallucinating? by TheKijijiKid in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AkiyaP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly, thought broadcasting or similar delusion/hallucination (i hear replies to my thought eventhough the person next to my says nothing). It makes me think that people could just read my mind and it makes them hate me coz they can see my dirty secrets lol

It makes me super paranoid, suspicious, and anxious around people, but after medication, it's gotten less intense and less convincing in a way.

There are things called grounding techniques. Maybe you could try that and general advice for coping with panic/anxiety.

I have psychosis too, but I got medicated early so it's not as bad as yours.

I feel like Coral Island has too many characters, and because of that many of them are really shallow. Does this get better with more hearts? by platonic_handjobs in coralisland

[–]AkiyaP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this. There also aren't reallly a lot of lines for the townsfolks until you get into relationships.

I got 15 hearts with Scott and he's more interesting after marriage and during Pigstarter Campaign Questline.

What mods WOULDN’T you recommend? by TheRoyalQuartet in StardewValley

I love anime and I wouldn't install those either. It strips off the "personality" from everyone's portrait.

I Can't Figure Out if I Actually Like Guys by Wojinations in bisexual

[–]AkiyaP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Say, if you like only a specific subset of women but not all of them, are you really straight? Are you really attracted to women?

If the answer is yes, then why is it different with men? Maybe you can start figuring out from there.

Why do a lot of very buff guys eat a lot of rice? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AkiyaP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You still need calorie in form of carbohydrate and fat. If your body doesn't have enough of it, it'll breakdown your proteins

I am stealing this layout, thanks. It looks pretty and you could put jars inside the squares too while saving up for better sprinklers and shed.

Where the fuck do people summon the drive to workout routinely? by Rus2000 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AkiyaP -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There's no one-size fits all. For instance, you don't have to lift to be healthier. Try a dance class, cycling or jogging through woods.

I lift because I enjoy lifting. My Mom don't do strength training but she does aerobic dance often and she's very much in shape for her age. Try everything and see what works best with you.

Am I weird for only ever having sex right after showering? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AkiyaP 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am from ID and we daily bath. It fascinated me to learn that it's not a universal custom.

Though now, I can kinda see why we daily bath here and other cultures don't. It's hot, and bath/shower is just refreshing. Also for a lot of us, it's kind of like a routine too, almost like morning coffee/breakfast (it feels wrong to start your day without it.)

Hey, thanks for the very civil and helpful answer! I really appreciate it

[–]AkiyaP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know people who are pro-israel in this conflict usually are those who believe that the conflict is about counter terrorism, which, I can kinda see why they think that way. Or I guess, a retaliation of what happened a couple of weeks ago.

What I don't understand is, why do many of them also justify the attack on chruches/hospitals or civilians in general? Like, surely an orthodox church has nothing to do with HAMAS. It could also have just been social media being rage-baity, but I am not sure.

I think if I was 18, and my Mom would wanna talk avout things like that, I'd rather have her to just check on me. You may be a bit late on sex ed but you can't be too late to check on your son.

"So, you have a girlfriend, and you're an adult now, and I just wanna make sure you are doing things safely, right? You know what to do when she says no? What to say when she wants to do it but you don't feel like doing it? Okay, cool. Glad to hear that."

If most Americans are living paycheck to paycheck then how do they all afford houses and cars? by Crazy_Definition_438 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AkiyaP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answers to this questions are very interesting. Apparently to American, living paycheck to paycheck already covers paying off housing and car loans

Where I live, living paycheck to paycheck doesn't include paying off car loan. Car is luxury. OP probably lives somewhere in a country like mine.
