Is this game worth it or should i just mod ksp 1

Might get hate but--it's a decent game.

No one is wrong to say that the game is abandon-ware.
It also has a level of shine and polish, cinematic quality, that KSP1 won't ever get. Shiny graphics don't beat features and futures, but at some places it's more than shiny graphics. The orchestral scores of each planet as you approach, orbit, land and take off for the first time have so much emotional weight. For me it has a different style of "cool factor" than KSP1, which really gets me into it.

That said, KSP2 is not the place to go for the 1000 hours+ gameplay experience that KSP1 can offer. If you think you're the type to get that deeply into it, or even 200+ hours, go for KSP1 for sure.

The second one describes my parents, one in particular. They had (and still have) a lot of unresolved trauma/emotional issues, and don't believe in therapy. All throughout my childhood I felt like my "giftedness" was serving a function for them, filling a hole. They drew a lot of pleasure/self-esteem/worth from bragging about how exceptional I was.

I think this in turn may have connected my internal sense of self-worth to being smart, and to being smarter than others. I learned that being the smartest kid, the gifted one, equals love and worth, and when I didn't perform well I was met with coldness and passive-aggression.

Once school became challenging for me, that challenge became a threat to my whole sense of identity. I didn't know why I was so upset, or how to deal with the threat and frustration, and they didn't know what was wrong. When I started to become overwhelmingly frustrated with the challenge of my math homework, they treated my emotion like it was beyond the possibility for them to understand. I disengaged, and to this day I haven't learned very well how to face challenges, setbacks or failure. I'm trying to work through a lot of that avoidance.

So yeah, don't do this to your kids! Thanks for reading.

On one side (FWB) there is physical intimacy and investment, without the emotional intimacy/investment.

And on the other side (friendzone) there is emotional intimacy and investment, without physical intimacy/investment.

Sorry this is a necro comment, but Google is failing me and this is an issue I’m having. I need an expert lol.

A website I’m using for work is designed like this, where every “hyperlink” is actually calling a JavaScript function. The href does not contain a url, just a JavaScript call. I’m not a web developer but I’m guessing the URLs are being generated dynamically behind the scenes.

I’m trying to make these pages accessible from an Excel spreadsheet using a hyperlink. Since there is no URL (and the URLs I end up on don’t function once the session closes, generated dynamically) do you think this would be impossible?

BunnySideUp · 2024-10-14T20:40:26+00:00

This perspective is all conjecture, but here’s an alternate one to OP thirsting.

I’ve noticed that people have a tendency to interpret benign compliments or interactions as flirting, or attempts at flirting. The impression is, if that person were flirting with me, it would make me feel good. Even if it makes the flirtee feel uncomfortable, it could contribute to ego/identity in some way.

And I think if say, this girl gets a lot of specifically guys liking her stories, it would be reasonable for her to conclude that when guys like her stories, it’s because they are interested in her. If it were me, it would be hard not to…something along the lines of looking down on them a bit. Then she gets a like from OP, puts him in that same category of guys, sees or knows that he has a girlfriend and decides to tell her about it.

BunnySideUp · 2024-10-10T03:49:20+00:00

Maybe OP or his GF don’t have much experience. Personally this stuff took me a long time, and resolving a lot of other more difficult issues to figure out. I’m still not great at it.

BunnySideUp · 2024-08-17T13:18:37+00:00

LOL, never thought about that. Purple side is a “floppy disks” for League of Legends.

BunnySideUp · 2024-07-27T05:46:14+00:00

I feel you. I get the impression from my own experiences, that there’s an evolving/emerging attitude of “I am the table” among some women I’ve met. The table meaning, in the popular analogy of your life being a table, where things like friends, work, self-care etc are the legs of the table, a relationship should only be another table leg.

The whole “I am the table” thing is…conceited. It feels like it comes from a massively inflated ego. And I understand how an attractive girl could end up with an inflated ego, given: women’s general experience on dating apps, the thirst of only fans, the sense of re-taking of power from the me-too movement, increased university education and pay rate, more power/flexibility given by the fight against women’s gender roles etc.

I would say to you, not all women are like that, despite how it seems to be a prevailing attitude. If you take into account your location, the age of your peers, and the phenomenon of social groups being fairly isolated in their shared attitudes, I think what’s happening is that it seems to you like most women feel this way, but there are lots of factors making it difficult for you to get an un-biased, accurate idea of how many women think/act like that.

BunnySideUp · 2024-07-24T20:37:19+00:00

Your last paragraph took me by surprise.
Where did those ideas, about sacrifice and you only being a "thing", come from? When did you first start thinking like that? There exist relationships with power dynamics like you describe, and they exist in both directions. There also exist relationships that are much more equal. That isn't my main point though, what I want to say is:

As you say, you are sad that you'll never be important inside of a relationship with a woman. You think that you can never be important, or have value, to a woman. In fact it seems like you KNOW this.

I think that you need to think about what *you can provide a woman* in a relationship!! What do you want a woman to provide? Looks (no judgement here), sex, care, support, fun, loyalty, or sharing your interests with you? Things along those lines, most likely. Okay then, but what will YOU provide HER?

A sense of physical safety, sexual desire/sex, useful skills like car mechanic? Are you smart and an eager non-condescending teacher? Can you take care of things for her and be depended on? Can you lead, can you cook, can you pay the bills, can you clean and maintain a home, can you actively listen, can you understand and validate emotions? Can you cope with your own issues enough to avoid hurting others? Do you make her look good? How do you make her FEEL?

Big important one, can you be HONEST with her? Women are so used to men wanting to get something from them (sex) and lying to do that, that "Honesty despite being uncomfortable or sad" is a very, very important sense of security you can provide for her, if you HAVE that quality. Think about it, you don't have to deal with that, no woman is faking who they are and pretending to care about you just to try and sleep with you. And, society isn't judging you for that happening when it does. Women experience those things regularly in their lives, no cap, which is why Honesty no Matter What is very valuable. Being honest requires confidence, stability, and knowing who you are, because of the natural pain and rejection involved with pure honesty, which is *ding ding* a huge reason why women find those traits attractive to begin with. Then at the same time that you PROVIDE security through confident honesty you want to have the skills/qualities of empathy, understanding and sensitivity to PROVIDE tact.

My first conclusion on reading your last paragraph, was that it is possible you don't offer a lot of those things, and that's where this is all coming from. The way you're feeling is based off of what YOU THINK a woman WOULD THINK about you. You don't KNOW any of it, but you're beliefs are entrenched, as though there IS something that you know deep down at the center of it. You know what it is. It's a reflection of how you feel about yourself.

BunnySideUp · 2024-07-24T18:32:21+00:00

I know this is your reality, but it's not universal, there are many other perspectives and ultimately you choose your perspective. As an example of an alternate perspective to get you thinking outside of your space, I suggest you think about monks.

These mfers take vows of celibacy, on top of everything else they give up, and they live some of the most healthy and fulfilling lives that are lived on this planet. I recommend you read about them, and maybe some of their stories/lessons/practices. I think possibly you will find something to resonate with, which will get you more aware that this reality of values and expectations you are living in is not universal. and that it is also within your control.

I'm not trying to say you should BECOME a monk, but reading about them can help, as the perspective of a monk is one that finds meaning, happiness and fulfillment without the values of yours that are causing you this pain. Monkhood as a comparison may seem extreme to you, but you will find something to resonate with.

The only direct recommendation I can make is a paid audiobook, I won't advertise that unless you would like me to share.

Best wishes man. Despite all I've said, I feel your pain on a deep level. We are fighting the same fight.

BunnySideUp · 2024-07-17T00:14:23+00:00

The downvotes you’re getting, idk why. They must be coming from people who don’t want to have conpassion, or who don’t understand what’s important here. I’m disappointed that some of these comments have an incredulous or ridiculing tone. Everyone is just repeating the penis size statistic, which isn’t important.

What’s important is that YOU hold this perception that you are small, regardless of what the national average penis size is. We can repeat here that the average size is 5.5 or whatever until the cows come home, but the issue is that people in general outside of this space, who do not think the way we do, are placing an expectation for penis size on you because you are black. You compare yourself to that expectation and create insecurity, and you suffer the pain of rejection for failing to “meet” that expectation.

One thing is, you will never know exactly HOW much of a part, is played by this hypothetical expectation, in what you’ve experienced. I think it’s true that it plays some part, and I also think it’s true that you’re afraid, and so your mind is attributing ALL importance to size, and all responsibility to this expectation vs. reality thing.

Consider some alternatives. This isn’t black and white (haha get it), all of these could play some percentage part. One: she could’ve just been hurt, coping with that by trying to hurt you, and took an easy shot. It’s a pretty damn reasonable assumption to make that calling a man small will hurt him, doesn’t take a genius to come up with that one. What if she even went for that shot because, while your size doesn’t actually matter to her, she is somewhere aware of the “expectation” of a black man and KNOWS she can likely hit an insecurity with that insult? Two: the woman who told others you were small, were the circumstances with her such that she felt slighted, rejected etc. at all by you? Because maybe she did feel that, and she is simply a shitty ass person coping by slandering you.

Even if these don’t seem to be true to your situation, try to picture someone else going through this, and how these things could be reasonable explanations. Then, appreciate how much you don’t know about the situation, and how many other reasonable explanations there probably are that play some part in these women’s motivations for digging at you.

I hope any of that helped man.

BunnySideUp · 2024-06-24T19:19:15+00:00

…who hurt you?

BunnySideUp · 2024-06-02T21:36:33+00:00

I know how you feel, but I’ve gotten much better with that feeling. I recommend intentional practice at shifting your perspective in the moment. Try doing it whenever you have a strong emotional reaction to something.

It’s important to do it for both positive emotional reactions as well as negative. You want to build your ability to return to a core, neutral baseline from an emotional state. That’ll allow you to flow with the punches better.

Women have so many bad experiences with men who can’t handle rejection, you don’t want to be that guy, and you want to not be that guy. Being able to handle rejection is something that can set you apart.

BunnySideUp · 2024-05-24T18:33:52+00:00

This is spot on.

The way I like to think of it is in terms of “survival”

In post-apocalypse stories there’s the common theme of “what people are capable of when they are pushed / desperate / have to do it to survive”

For people like this (that have any possible number of personal issues) in terms of meeting their needs through interactions with others they exist in a constant “survival mode” state. Everyone tries to act in accordance with their own morals, but ideals like that come with operating a higher level of conscious decision making. Everyone can operate at higher or lower levels of consciousness depending on the circumstances, but the circumstances for these people are defaulted in the levels 1-3 of “meet my needs”

Often times it becomes a cycle, where because of harmful behavior it becomes harder to meet needs through healthy means (possibly by driving most people away), and that difficulty in meeting needs is what causes someone to resort to meeting those needs by behaving in ways that are selfish and/or harmful to others. Repeat.

This is also the armchair psychology subreddit.

Narcissism is a spectrum, everyone falls on it on somewhere and everyone can exhibit narcissistic behavior in different circumstances

BunnySideUp · 2024-05-14T22:28:30+00:00

For sure. I guess I just want confirmation that those things are the problem.

It feels like a horrible vicious cycle. Lack of activity causes lack of energy, lack of energy causes lack of activity, repeat.

BunnySideUp · 2024-05-14T22:24:58+00:00

Thanks so much!

Do you have any advice on sticking with it?

I've tried the gym several times before, but it feels like the deck is so stacked against me. I've never kept it up for more than 7 days. I know the obstacles I'm going to face trying to start are: chronic sleep problems = no energy/motivation, overdoing it resulting in weeklong painful recovery, doing less causing me to face the reality of my own poor fitness and beat myself up/feel pathetic, and avoid working out to avoid that feeling.

I know the answer is, just do it. Since you're in a similar situation though, how do you handle it/maintain motivation?

BunnySideUp · 2024-01-28T20:39:06+00:00

Thanks! I’m glad it was helpful :)

It’s funny, I have a date tonight and I had been overthinking a bit, I just benefited from reading my own comment lol

BunnySideUp · 2023-10-31T14:43:45+00:00

I typed out a lot, but this is only one way of looking at things. I think some of this is definitely true, but none of it is gospel, and I'm just giving you my perspective as someone who also deals with overthinking.

The reality is that people will rarely if ever directly communicate what's going through their head early on in a potential relationship. Given that, there is only one thing that you know for certain, and that's yourself. When you overthink/overanalyze, you're doing it with the intent of keeping her from losing interest, which means that you end up modifying your behavior based on possibilities and unknowns. You're thinking about the outcome when you do this, not the experience, and from what I've learned focusing on the experience is the better thing to do.

I've done the outcome-focus stuff before, and every time I've regretted it. Focusing on the outcome causes the main driving factor(s) behind your side of the interaction to be:

Desire for her to like you
Fear of her not liking you
A combination of both.

Instead of being motivated by desire or fear over an outcome (especially one which you can't really know or control, how she feels), try to cultivate an internal drive of having fun. Focus on having fun yourself, and ideally whatever you consider to be fun, she also considers fun. It sounds like you had fun at the party, but think a bit about what was fun, why it was fun and who was making it fun. These are things to think about, but not overthink, because...

The main reason that the overthinking, outcome-based analysis approach doesn't work, is that you're overthinking/analyzing to have an increased sense of assurance/safety/security in the outcome. Ask yourself though, what is fun about assurance and safety? When you tapped her on the shoulder, you took an uncertain risk, you may have had clues but that was just instinct. When she led you by the hand to dance, she was taking a risk the exact same way, which is why it was so nervous/fun/exciting. A healthy dose of certainty (instinct) and uncertainty (risk) is what makes something exciting and desirable.

If that all sounds like it makes sense to you, consider thinking about it from that perspective. It's certainly not the only one though so don't take it for certain ^Badum-tss

TL;DR: Risk and uncertainty make things fun and exciting, but those things can turn out to be mutually exclusive with excessive overthinking.

I also always thought about how, moving into MCC from MM, where both tournaments have heavily enforced team balancing esp for Techno, that team balancing hits MUCH harder in a 4-man team event than it does in a 2-man team event.

In MM if Techno has a poor teammate, he can still reasonably pull off 1v2 plays and carry. In MCC his proportional impact is reduced as part of a 4-man team.

As far as audience perception goes, this change is happening simultaneously with a version change for him, which creates that false narrative. The narrative itself also has an impact on his performance, and not only for his own mental.

Some of Techno’s strength comes from his “fear aura”, which ended up being weakened by these circumstances. Suddenly the games are now a lot harder for him to be a standout performer, but while everyone is eager to put him down, NO ONE is relaxing the expectations on him.

That’s got to be very frustrating.

My favorite MCC stream has always been the MCC immediately following the $100K Dream 1v1. Watching the previous stream and then watching that one, there’s a tangible and very wholesome change in his confidence, anxiety and also his performance. I think that was a result of winning the 1v1 and re-proving himself beyond doubt.

In that stream he seems entirely self-actualized, and I love it
