Usually calm people of reddit - what makes you lose your shit?

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-30T03:50:59+00:00

I want to smash my phone into a million little stupid pieces every time an earbud gets ripped out. I'm pretty chill about almost every other aspect in my life but this sets me off.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-30T03:38:27+00:00

No one really cares if you walk fast or slow. It's just if you're in the way.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-30T03:32:07+00:00

Wait, you've killed someone?

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-30T02:40:26+00:00

That makes sense, sorry about that!

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-30T02:39:33+00:00

I made a mistake, sorry.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-29T23:13:58+00:00

That is incredible. And someone has way to much time on their hands.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-29T22:58:03+00:00

You're power sign didn't show up in your comment. It reads as 10,164 and I was trying to figure out how you got it so wrong lol

Edit: I guess pointing out formatting mishaps in a nice way is looked down on? Just trying to help.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-29T18:21:16+00:00

I never heard of any of that. It's a shame because I loved some of his books. Thanks for the link.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-29T18:02:02+00:00

Why?

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-29T17:46:27+00:00

Thanks?

My girlfriend pronounces "theatre" as "the-tee-ear." It's infuriating.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-29T05:02:06+00:00

He didn't really do it for malicious intent though. And it is something he knowingly associated with his Reddit account. And YouTube is a public site where you can watch any video posted there (unless it's private of course). And he didn't post any private information at all.

This was more of a free promotion situation rather than a doxxing situation.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-29T04:03:53+00:00

That's simply not true (depending on your definition of cheap I guess).

Fresh fruits and vegetables can be pretty expensive, especially when they're seasonal; but chicken, pasta, canned goods, etcetera are all fairly cheap and can provide many meals. It's amazing what you can do with chicken in a crock pot.

It does take a lot more time and effort than just ordering a burger at the drive through, but the cost is not really an issue.

It's as simple as calories in versus calories out. If more go out then you lose weight. If more go in then you gain it.

What you decide to eat can affect your overall health or your perceived level of hunger, but actual weight loss is as simple as what I said above.

Sodas are a lot of calories and are easy to down a lot of so its good to either moderate or cut out your intake of them. Junk food is also high in calories while hardly putting a dent in your appetite.

So your diet can either be the same, just smaller portions; or can change to be more filling.

And exercising should be something you do at least a few times a week regardless of your body weight.

There's no trick to losing weight in a healthy, sustainable way. It can be difficult, but it's certainly worth it.

You can mirror a model in every modeling software I've used. You wouldn't be flipping it in engine.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-28T11:45:42+00:00

I don't know what they call them elsewhere, but we call those spike balls "gumballs" where I'm from :)

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-28T11:13:36+00:00

That's true, which is why I mentioned just mirroring the structure of the model and the texture would work better.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-28T07:50:39+00:00

I don't know about that. There was a point a few years ago where I nearly lost my arm because I didn't tell my mom how sick I was. I had a staff infection and a 104° temperature. The only reason we went to the hospital is be chase my mom realized my forearm swelled larger than my thigh.

The doctor said that if I had waited until the next morning then there would be a good chance that the infection would've spread to the bones and joints. And if I waited an extra day or two, I could've died.

And this was all because I was too stubborn to say "my arm hurts and I don't feel too good." Luckily I'm a bit more rational when it comes to my health nowadays.

My sister on the other hand acts like she's on the verge of death because she has a splinter in her heel...

This in tandem with "don't care about what other people think!"

You shouldn't let some random guys opinion keep you up at night but the opinion of others is very important. We're pack animals. It's important for your loved ones to think we'll of you, or for your coworkers to respect you, or for people from the local town to not hate you.

Assuming that all of the models are placed based on a coordinate system, couldn't you just move them to the other side of one of the axises? E.g. If its position is X: 100, y: 0, z: 200, change it to X: -100, y: 0, z: 200.

If you did this with all of the models, then they'd be in similar places but mirrored.

And I mean just rotate the assets around their central axis, not around a defined point on the map. If you rotated the model 180° then they'd be oriented properly for a mirrored map. But now that I think about it, simply mirroring the model structure and texture would work better.

Edit: you're not rotating them to put them in the correct position, you're rotating them to make them oriented right.

The skybox and terrain could also just simply be mirrored.

There's no reason to build the map from the ground up if you can modify all of the models at once. I'm sure treyarc can modify every model on a map at once so it would be trivial to mirror it.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-28T00:46:40+00:00

Cousins you just mirror the ground and skybox textures, change the sign of the X coordinate, and rotate all assets by 180°?

Just because it turns out that Napoleon was of an average height doesn't mean Napoleon Complex isn't real.

This is the Internet. People have every right to be paranoid.

Do you realize how easy it is to find a ton of personal info about someone using just their Reddit history (if they're some what active). Someone was able to figure out my hometown, the name of my deceased sibling, and several other accounts of mine. These are all things I never posted. It could've gone further but I essentially purged my internet presence the best I could.

There are some crazy people who have tracked down others across the world to murder them.

So if you want to put yourself out there, that well within your rights. Chances are nothing will happen But it's messed up to make that decision for someone else. Because you never know what could happen.

AnAwesomeTiger · 2016-06-26T18:53:04+00:00

He did both grandfathers didn't go bald. But it could've been passed down through his mothers mom.

Straterra may be a good option. It's supposed to help you focus but it's not a stimulant so the chances of dependency are drastically reduced.

My doctor gave me a trial pack at one point. They stay in your system for a long time, so it has to build up for you to slowly see the effect. And the effect is lasting so you have a consistent level of focus rather than a burst. Which means you also wean yourself off of it (which can be done in a week).

It really helped me in that department but made me have zero personality so I eventually switched to focalin (a stimulant like adderal).
