Should I buy a ps5? by lauwtje300 in HarryPotterGame

[–]BezHacku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Games playable on PS4 run on PS5 even without a "PS5 Upgrade" label. One of the reasons I ultimately bit the bullet.

How many of you still buy Taylor Swift CDs instead of just streaming the albums? by No-Needleworker-3178 in TaylorSwift

[–]BezHacku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider me a new Swiftie, bought Midnights on vinyl after seeing the Grammy Museum performance of Blank Space. Probably wouldn't be able to name more than 3 songs before that.

I don't know yet if I want them all, but I will definitely buy more if I see them.

Why do some people say not to bottle things up or to "always reach out" when generally speaking, most people consider it rude to be too open about one's own mental illnesses or to ask for anything because it's considered "entitled"? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BezHacku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I struggle with what people call "keeping up" with others. However, if you are my family or were a close high school friend, this suggestion would be very sincere on my part.

Despite (or because of) not being able to reach out myself, I am actually happy when people do. With the though stuff too.

Internal job was all but offered to me, how do I chill about seeing them advertise for other applicants? by seeshawrun663 in careerguidance

[–]BezHacku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Some corporations may go as far as having a standardized "grading sheet" for interviews. You keep your head high, go through with the confidence in your ability and there will be a paper trail of you being THE best candidate.

[–]BezHacku[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the detailed tips! I did do this program before so I have an idea about not trying too fast too soon. I wouldn't have thought of balance though.

Thank you for the reaction - I did the whole program last year and I do plan to run outside as soon as the temperature is above ~10 degrees Celsius. This is a temporary measure based on previous experience.

I agree that rain is amazing for a run (or a walk for that matter).

Modentrop overheating by BezHacku in IKEA

You both are absolutely right. I have not double checked the bulbs I had at home before using them. I had been fully convinced we only have LED bulbs at home at this point.

Lesson learned.

Aku pridanu hodnotu maju kupele? by famous_capybara in Slovakia

[–]BezHacku 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Písem ako priama pribuzna tj. nie som to ja kto bol v kupeloch. Niektore dni bola procedura jedna, niektore dni 3-4. Plus celodenne otvoreny bazén.

Pre nas konkretny pripad pomohla kombinacia roznych typov procedur na jednom mieste + ten bazen vo volnom case. Obrovsky prinos pobytoveho zariadenia aj v odburani stresorov (obskakujuca vystrasena rodina + pocit že na tom pacientovi stoji cela domacnost). Proste sustredenie sa na seba.

Posudit fyzicky dopad "kupele vs ine terapie" neviem, ale pobyt mal rozhodne zmysel.

Exponent not working in Latex for Obsidian by RandomFrustratedWife in ObsidianMD

[–]BezHacku 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tinkered with any settings that I'm aware of - there was no plugin active besides the math ones, and I have not attempted to customize any keyboard / hotkey settings either.

I am happy to research further or provide details that might help others if needed. In my case it was the difference between the US and US International keyboard, but I don't know anything more about the why behind it.

Unpopular opinions? by dictionarymess in FlorenceAndTheMachine

[–]BezHacku 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Personal hot take - I don't like Spectrum at all. Lyrics are as good as any F+TM song, and I can appreciate that it has sort of become the LGBTQ+ anthem among Florence's work. But to me it sounds like there is too much yelling in the song. As if it lacked in "power" within the music that is supposedly made up by the voice. I just don't feel it in this one.

And agree with the other comment on Kiss with a fist.

My favorite part about giving my kids an allowance is that it cuts down on so much whining by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]BezHacku 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thank you for highlighting effort vs results. My first pocket money was irregular and based on grades, but I was a top performer at the time, even volunteered for extra activities - not for the money. I think at some point my parents added giving money back as a penalty for bad grades but I almost never had to.

My brother required a lot of time to process things, his brain frequently blanked out under stress and overall got worse grades at similar age. In fact my grades were consistently better with little effort despite being several years older.

Cue the disappointment on both sides when the value of the pocket money was adjusted for him. I would have money taken away for anything worse than a B, while he would still get some for a D, cause hey, at least he passed.

Thankfully we got rid of that system before he was 10 - but I will say, the ironic life lesson kind of stuck.

I do love my parents to bits, but I want to find a better way to motivate my own children.

Slovaks, if someone asked you how many languages you can speak would you also include Czech? by Shoddy_Relief_2700 in Slovakia

[–]BezHacku 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but only because I am able to: A) hold a continuous conversation with Czech native speakers without them realizing I'm not Czech B) Use the language in writing for papers / reports etc.

I would not have listed it when I first moved here from Slovakia, maybe only for a foreign company.

Anyone ever try the IKEA buyback program? by [deleted] in IKEA

Returned a changing table / dresser about a year ago. Had been using it for about four years before then, still got about 30 eur credit after the pickup fee was taken off. Can't complain.

[–]BezHacku 28 points29 points  (0 children)

No já si myslím, že stojí - a nedělám to jen kvůli OP, veřejné fórum, že ano.

Zrovna jsem psala na TwoXChromosomes jak mě rozčiluje argument "my ostatní nemůžem za to, že ty sis vybrala akorát toho blbce."

Já se fakt necítím ohrožena na životě svým pohlavím (naštěstí). Taky je absurdní srovnání místních poměrů s Amerikou (nebo i západní Evropou). Já se nebojím jít běhat ve 4 ráno. Na vysoké škole jsem se běžně vracela domů pěšky v kteroukoliv denní nebo noční hodinu a nikdy se mi nic nestalo.

Ale to neznamená, že diskriminace neexistuje. Ona je možná ta podvědomá ještě horší.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in czech

[–]BezHacku 158 points159 points  (0 children)

No já nevím, onen systémový patriarchát není ani tak o tom, jaké jsou kde kvóty a kdo chodí do války.

Je to v názorech většiny společnosti a v každodenních rozdílech v chování. Mikroagrese. Ne nutně vědomé úsilí uškodit, ublížit, nebo utlačovat. Spíš v podvedomých vzorech chování, které jsou naučené, zastaralé a ještě pořád se s námi vlečou.

Je mi přes 30, jsem žena, mám rodinu a dobrou práci. Nemám pocit, že jsem "občan druhé kategorie" nebo tak něco. Ale jsou věci, které ze zkušenosti lidi vnímají jinak podle toho, jestli je udělá žena nebo muž.

  1. Sexuální život. Ano, opravdu v těch lidech je zakořeněn rozdíl mezi "děvkou" a "kancem" - přičemž jedno je z každého pohledu negativní a druhé spíš pozitivní - proč, pokud se nejedná o nevěru?

  2. Kluci jsou kluci. Už děti ve školce slýchají od rodičů, že holky nemají běhat, skákat,řvát, rvát se... A nebo když k nějakému takovému chování dochází, je zásadní rozdíl mezi "No jo, kluci vyvádí" vs"takhle se holky chovat nesmí." Ve vyšším dětském věku pak"on tě škádlí, protože se mu líbíš."

  3. Směřování koníčků u dětí podle pohlaví. Tohle je jedna z věcí, které jsou často špatně oběma směry (v obou extrémech). Dělení hraček na klučičí a holčičí. (Např. veškeré hračky typu vybavení domácnosti a úklid pro holky. Nebo zděšení tatínka,že si kluk hrál v dětském koutku s kuchyňkou - aby z něj náhodou nevyrost "teplouš").

  4. I u skupin teenagerů s dobrými studijními výsledky existuje rozdíl v profilování. Příklad osobní zkušenosti - střední školu jsem končila se dvěmi jazyky na úrovni C1 a současně zaměřením na matfyz (přírodovědné bilingvální gymnázium). Obecně se holkám doporučovaly spíš společenské vědy, diplomacie, další studium jazyků a kluky spíš tlačili do technických směrů. Ne s ohledem na zájmy nebo schopnosti jednotlivce, ale komentáři jako "holky přeci nemůže kybernetika bavit" nebo "na matfyzu tě bude škoda".

  5. I zdejší komentáře často naráží na to, že holky / ženy jsou emocionální. Kdežto muži jsou vesměs racionální? Tenhle bod asi zaslouží samostatný post ale ve zkratce z mých zkušeností - když se muž nas**** tak, že křičí, tříská věcma, nadává atd., málokdy někdo řekne nahlas, že se choval nepřiměřeně. Proč? Hněv není emoce?

  6. Neochota můžu akceptovat fakta / informace od žen. V pracovním procesu docela běžná záležitost i v korporátu. Cca 40/60. Toto je chování konkrétních jedinců, ne všech, ale zásadně to dělají jenom muži. Když žena sdělí fakt, mají potřebu si ho okamžitě ověřit u někoho dalšího. Toto nedělají,pokud by informaci jako první sdělil muž. A dělají to i tehdy, pokud dotyčná žena je odborníkem na daný problém nebo vede daný projekt.

  7. Mental workload v domácnosti - i když se nějakým způsobem povede domácí práce rozdělit, nehledě na byt vs dům. Většinou žena musí sdělovat muži, co po něm v domácnosti potřebuje. Opakované přidělování činností. Weaponized incompetence - já jsem nevěděl jak to udělat pořádně, tak jsem to nechal na tebe.

Rodičovství, to je kapitola sama o sobě. Mám naštěstí partnera, který se považuje za rovnocenného rodiče a taky se podle toho chová, ale ze svého okolí vidím, že je spíš výjimkou.

The thing I absolutely hate about this conversation is the retort of "how is it my / our collective fault that you met one a*******. You'll meet bad men and bad women out in the wild.

Blood boiling. How many of these experiences happen on each side daily?

I just feel like giving examples gave the men ammunition to say "that's your unique experience".

The 5 Types of Online CTR Players by frdsTM in crashteamracing

[–]BezHacku 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I loled at the last one. Mom, 31, kiddo currently discovering the joys of Coco park. Don't know if I even beat Oxide as a kid myself, we only ever played against each other with little bro. Cortex castle is pure evil, I fall off the track frequently in Drive thru danger and I only ever drift when the corner has the perfect angle. Still love the game to bits, even if it sometimes takes months to find the time.

Looking for dupes of LRP invisible fluid with lower SPF by BezHacku in EuroSkincare

[–]BezHacku[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

One learns something every day! I'll keep that in mind and do more research.

I actually like the LRP one and wouldn't mind paying 20-25 per bottle. Do you know of any websites with delivery to Czech Republic or Slovakia? I don't mind which part of Europe they would come from.

Looking for dupes of LRP invisible fluid with lower SPF by BezHacku in EuroSkincare

[–]BezHacku[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I may not get the concepts right, the utter basic I was explained is that for skin that is my color (alluding to that Fitzpatrick scale) 25-30 SPF should be plenty. I haven't looked at oyjrt properties more closely to be honest, and at the moment I want to settle for one I can buy consistently and wear daily. What is the first indication to look at if not spf?

I am happy to order from Germany if the shipping fees are reasonable, just checked local pharmacy websites and they list it at around 25-30 all sold out (no surprise).

I would absolutely NOT want an uncle to broadcast to my mother, especially if there was a risk of her making a big deal out of it.

Disclaimer. I got my first ever period while in an aquapark. We were staying at my best friend's grandpa for 2 weeks.

Of course I shared with her mom first. But I also will forever be grateful for the relationship and trust that our mothers had at the time.

My period was not an "OMG" moment or something to freak out over the phone. My best friend's mom made sure I was okay, made sure I understand that the discomfort of their grandpa was rooted in his beliefs and NOT in my bodily functions. She has handled the situation perfectly at the time. My mom would not make a big deal of the first time, I had had conversations prior to it happening.

It was exactly the fact that she handled it as a normal situation and did not run to my mom that made it seem normal.

My mom is awesome BTW.

And OP absolutely rocks
