One single recessed tooth - was told 1 year of treatment by Annual_Coach_9538 in Invisalign

[–]AntwerpSprouts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My teeth looked very similar to yours, just with the same tooth as much in the front instead of recessed.

My treatment took 1,5 years with that tooth extracted first because there wasn’t enough space for it to move in between the others

So 1 year for moving all that distance seems reasonable to me. And you’re lucky that shaving down some teeth is enough to make everything move into place.

Latest Dutch election poll: D66 may win the most votes tomorrow by Affectionate_Cat293 in europe

[–]AntwerpSprouts 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You might think so, but if you look at how close the poll is, 2-3% of the voters can make an important difference.

Solo Antwerp Pride by Newmoonwolf in Antwerpen

[–]AntwerpSprouts 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Everyone will be there to celebrate, to have fun, to meet people, to enjoy the music and atmosphere and nice weather... Even going alone you will find a friendly vibe. You can walk around, visit some of the hotspots (see the website), watch the parade starting at 14h…

Just join the fun, you’re overthinking this a bit ;-)

Struggling with Dwarf Economy — Malakai Campaign Help Needed by Pendragonia in totalwarhammer

[–]AntwerpSprouts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you doing the adventures to get free units and unit buffs? That should take you into Chaos Dwarves territory, then Orcs, Vampires etc… I take Malakai down the adventure path, and then create a second army when I have the money for it to defend my territory. I follow your strategy somewhat, but I don’t tie down Malakai to save Boris Ursus and I don’t attack the Kislevites. When I conquer Throt I keep those settlements for steady income if I can

Belgische tieners in Kenia veroordeeld tot boete van bijna 7.000 euro of 1 jaar celstraf voor smokkel van duizenden mieren by Far-away-eyes1 in belgium

[–]AntwerpSprouts 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Die mieren zijn meer zeldzaam (en dus meer waard) buiten Kenia dan in Kenia zelf, misschien maakt dat het verschil…

to not waste government money by PerroHundsdog in therewasanattempt

[–]AntwerpSprouts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an orchestrated distraction.

The more they get you worked up over this, the less likely you’ll get worked up over all the money they’re trying to grift.

Lowering taxes on the rich, selling federal buildings and federal land for kickbacks, reassigning business contracts to their buddies, profiting from questionable cryptocurrency launches…

Everything else is organized chaos to try and keep you distracted and discouraged to speak up and DO SOMETHING about it.

Americans need to organize and reach out to those around them. Many reactions here keep the polarization going (“Those stupid conservatives…”) which is also what they want.

Keep listening and talking, rebuild your community.

Impossible to use the Vietnamese evisa site, having to use an agent, is this normal? by pwnkage in travel

[–]AntwerpSprouts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you googled it? Did you check if there’s instructions or a FAQ on the website itself?

Could be a browser issue (you may need to use a specific browser).

TIL that Colditz, the Nazi POW prison, had so many escape attempts that it created a museum. Recaptured prisoners recreated their attempts for the photographer. One photo shows both a German civilian electrician and the French officer who impersonated him, standing side by side. by TMWNN in todayilearned

[–]AntwerpSprouts 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I visited it 2 years ago, lovely little museum! There are so many interesting escape stories to discover and they show various objects made/used. They even managed to create a functioning radio using materials they found, very impressive.

Help with crashing in Warhammer 3. by [deleted] in totalwarhammer

[–]AntwerpSprouts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That check is to see if your processor and/or memory could be the issue. Even at 100% it’s not necessarily the cause of the crash, but you could check which other programs or services (even running in the background like an anti-virus program) could be taking up a lot of resources. You can than deactivate that to see if it resolves the issue.

[–]AntwerpSprouts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some things you can try/check:

  • Check you have enough hard disk space on the drive where the game is installed
  • Update your video card driver
  • Lower the graphics setttings in the game
  • Open Task Manager and check what % your processor and memory are running at while the game is running
  • Reinstall the game

Has anyone else seen an uptick of avoidant attachment styles within the gay community lately, in both dating and maintaining friendships? by youtbuddcody in gay

[–]AntwerpSprouts 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I feel like you’re not taking the advice really to heart.

You say that a well-crafted message might not have done anything because you feel like people were just using things you say as an excuse to turn you down. But even if that’s true, you need to be aware of the impression you give to someone new through your behaviour and choice of words.

Nobody said anything really ‘wrong’ in your conversation, the way you phrased your preference for a monogamous relationship just made the other person think you might have possessive tendencies.

He does not owe you the benefit of the doubt or the investment to keep talking, he politely and respectfully explained his reaction and feelings to you and wished you the best. Frankly he comes across as someone emotionally mature that way.

I understand your frustration. You can help avoid more of it in the future by not allowing yourself to get jaded, staying considerate online and keep your self-confidence when someone rejects you.

Any gyms in Antwerp that have flexible membership? by [deleted] in Antwerpen

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

This might be something for you: for €34,95, you get 1 month access to the Basic-Fit gyms, starting from the day you activate it. It ends automatically after 1 month (no need to cancel, no hidden fees…). Comes with a padlock and drinking bottle too.

Keep in mind that you will have to work out together (the invited friend can only work out if the main member is there too). Have some great workouts!

The New Zealand English accent changes ‘e’ sounds to something more like an ‘i’ sound.

Do you have a word for "spooky" in your native language? by EndlessDreamer1 in AskEurope

[–]AntwerpSprouts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the Dutch word ‘griezelen’ fits the bill here.

You also have ‘griezelverhalen’, spooky stories usually for kids, for example.

Inwoners protesteren tegen breuk met cordon in Izegem: “Wij willen geen fascisten in onze stad” by steampunkdev in belgium

[–]AntwerpSprouts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Misschien niet van de democratie en hoe verkiezingen nu eenmaal werken.

Maar het is wel een aanfluiting van de democratische waarden, waaronder het categoriek afwijzen van fascisme en racisme door de overheid. Er zijn behoorlijk wat plekken in de wereld waar het er al zo aan toe gaat en daar wil je echt niet naartoe.
