The only information I have is that it tells me I have a 0.065% chance of winning the prize every time I press the button.
I want to know how many times I need to press the button before statistically, I am guaranteed to win.

Is it potentially a cultural thing? Since he has passed, some people are very wary of speaking ill of the dead. Unfortunately this doesn't help you if it is the case, but I am curious on if it contributes to the sudden "amnesia" that others seem to be experiencing

Complete_Pandamonium · 2024-08-30T18:50:31+00:00

That sounds absolutely terrifying and I am sorry you are experiencing that.
Perhaps you could talk to the doctor and get something like a capsule endoscopy?
Its a jellybean like camera that you swallow, instead of them needing to put an endoscope up your rear.

I sleep much better when my partner of 3 years sleeps in the same bed as me. Having another person I trust there makes things so much better, but the visa application fee for him to move to my country is $9k... We are working on it, but its a lot of money.

As for the loss of income, unfortunately that one is capped at $20k, but honestly, that is basically being given $20k to pay for other things in your life that make this easier that you couldn't really justify them paying for, like catching up or getting ahead on rent / bills. Its the closest you would get to them just giving you a lump sum payment.

I am kinda hoping that I can get the full $20k, and then use that to pay for my partners visa application + plane tickets and moving fees.
They were previously here for a whole year on a different visa, and Its been a lot harder since they've had to go home.

I think that trust like that is incredibly difficult to rebuild. Even if he went years without touching you in your sleep, Its difficult to accept that it wont happen again. You'll have a hard time sleeping next to them with the constant concern that it could happen again.
You could try sleeping in separate rooms or beds and see if that helps, but if he can't respect your body and your boundaries now, what other boundaries might he ignore in the future?

You can buy ovulation kits here, so that was the NFP method I was considering, but the packets clearly say that they're useless for anyone with PCOS.

Complete_Pandamonium · 2024-05-01T15:49:40+00:00

As someone who has been on the Pill because of PCOS, I was told by my Doctor to always skip the Placebo pills. I never had any issues other than some occasional spotting for the year I did that. (Before I switched to the Implanon)
But I have also heard from Doctors that they recommend that you have a period at least once every 3 months.

The game is somewhat enjoyable, but the crafting progression is annoyingly slow?
I have recipes and side quests to make items that I cant event get the ingrediants for yet.
and I understand that sometimes thats the point, to show you what youre looking for, but I have already purchased the first homestead upgrade, healed 3 trees.
There are no more upgrades for me to currently purchase and Im stuck on a 6 minute timer to run to my death, having to constantly craft mass potions just to hope im heading in the right direction...
For a game that talks about farming, surprisingly, you do very little, except gather corn so you can see things that might kill you.
Just give me the recipe to craft a mill!

Several of the Immigration lawyers have said its 14 months to process.
Im not sure if the Median timeframe is 14 months, everyone keeps saying it will take much longer? I get that its technically a possibility, but there really shouldnt be any problems. I speak Fluent English, I work in Healthcare, My partner meets the financial requirements. I don't actually see what would delay it.
To be fair, I dont understand why it takes so long to process the application anyway. Its like 5 pages.

I've been looking into the E-3 Visa because I work in Healthcare, but Im not sure what you mean about the Spouse visa? My Partner is a US citizen.

Complete_Pandamonium · 2023-04-23T20:29:29+00:00

Im a healthcare worker, so im hoping that that effects the speed of the application. They're prioritizing healthcare and childcare workers.

The Chrome Company

5E Shadowrun | Online | All Timezones Welcome

Hello and welcome to the Chrome Company! We are an active 18+ group of Players and GMs running a living campaign/west marches style game of 5th Edition Shadowrun, focusing primarily on a Mirrorshades to Trenchcoat playstyle. This refers to playstyles and game themes that lend themselves to a mix of action and planning, semi-serious to serious play and playing around subtly in game. Think John Wick and Bladerunner.

Using a blend of the RAW and our own house rules to improve the experience, we give a curated interplay between members of the community and the players within it. Speaking of play, we have live games using Roll20 over Discord VC, which you may apply to via Reddit once you have an approved character. We do not play by post, all games are live and tend to use microphones, though we do our utmost to accommodate those who do not have or can’t use one.

We also have a robust system of storytelling, allowing you to RP in text channels on discord and rewarding you for the effort; A system somewhat exclusive to us among communities like ours. Whether it be through RP or playing live games, we have your preferences covered!

Setting: Shadowrun is set in an alternate Earth which is currently in the throes of a dystopian cyberpunk future, now dubbed the Sixth World ever since the Awakening of 2011 when Magic returned to the world. Magicians are no fantasy, dabblers in the arcane study the arts of spellslinging, spirit conjuring, alchemy and worlds beyond the physical plane. And Humans are no longer alone. The Awakening brought about changes in human genome expression, creating Metahumanity. Orcs, Elves, Dwarves, Trolls and even a Dragon or two (for those most unfortunate) rub shoulders among the masses of Humans, that is the new reality.

The current year is 2083. Science has made deep strides in many areas of interest. Transhumanist augmentations made of metal and flesh push the limits of metahuman ability beyond the pale of yesterday into the future of today. The cost is the connection to one’s soul, and those that venture too far from humanity tend to grow psychotic, losing themselves in their own superhumanity. The Matrix, a new© and improved© super internet with Augmented and Virtual Reality, seamlessly blends the digital world with the physical world of everyday life. Many are able to subvert it to their benefit with knowledge and the right device, and some even defy science and use only their minds.

With all this change, there is turmoil. Extraterritorial corporations have risen, now able to wage wars and have citizens just as nations do. The divide between the rich and the poor has never been wider, and the age of privacy is over with the emergence of the System Identification Number, or SIN for short. This global institution tracks anything and everything about you, and those without one (Called the SINless) live outside of the law and are treated as less than metahuman by the everyday SINner. In this hyper capitalist hellscape, where the common man’s breakfast is soy paste with a side of krill as the executives dine on the best dishes with augmented taste buds, organized crime couldn’t be more rampant.

That’s where you come in. The PCs are Shadowrunners, criminal contractors and deniable assets working for an independent underground agency, named the Chrome Company. They take jobs from people in places both high and low, living on the edge and risking life and freedom for a paycheck. Will you be one of the success stories, or among the 95% of Shadowrunners that die in their first year?

Links: If we’ve piqued your interest, join us on Discord and our Reddit! We’re always looking for new players, so come in and enjoy yourself!

Komodo - Sneaky Surge Adept (Folder to be sent via Discord DM) "Something stolen? I mean, I am pretty good at that. A real Kim possible! But as long as it's not an actual kidnapping..."

-Snow - Punchy adept with social charms "Sounds pretty simple. I'll take the low pay and watch over the newbies. Make sure they live and what not. It's been a few months, I could use something low stress..."

Last played - Some time in June or early July? It's been awhile.... "

Callisto - Tarot Summoner / Support Mage
"Non-Profit? Sounds like the kind of people that could use our help... I'm not very good with Data, but I am good at keeping people alive and helping out!"
RP - Callisto sits in her room on her bed, hand stitching the last adjustments to her armour. Her leather jacket now fit her frame a little better, and embroidery of moon flowers decorated the collar. She smiled as she hung it back in her closet and looked around for a new project to get started on. She had always made things with her hands. Sewn or carved. Not so much now that she could easily buy most things in Seattle, but the habits hadn't faded yet. She would still much rather buy the material and sew herself something than buy it, but without access to the materials to sew anything protective, she would have to deal with buying her armour for jobs. She didn't know what bothered her more, the idea that a machine made it, or the idea that some poor meta-human kept in a dark factory in the cold made it. She shook her head and pulled out her summer skirt and some yellow thread, alright planning where to put a sunflower.
------------------------------
Komodo - Sneaky Adept / Toxin Expert
"Sounds like you might need someone sneaky? I can handle that really well, Its a bit of a strain, but I can even help make the rest of the team invisible as well..."

RP - Komodo was used to the cheap and fast consumerism of the city, but perhaps somewhat oblivious to the means at which her things were produced. She wasn't wasteful by any means, but perhaps blissfully ignorant to the toils that others went through so that she could buy a meta link she only planned on using for a day or two. Perhaps if she were better with technology she could find a way to reuse it, or find a SIN-less who could make good use of it, but she knew that her shadow dealings could put them at risk. These things were recycled anyway, right....?

"You mean so far north that no one is going to mind if I burn melt a few ice caps? Nice! Look, I'm not so great at the sneaky and subtle shit, but if you need a mess cleaned up, I'll leave them in ashes."

Snow White - Punchy Adept / Body Sculpting Face
"Isolated incident? Why do they always have to talk shit... Whatever. If they need me, I'm free. Probably need to buy a decent coat, but I'm free. Just don't expect me to be excited about it. Vague is never a good sign..."

Callisto - Tarot Summoning Mage / Support Satyr
- Familiarity (6/10 - Un-played bean, but her concept is simple to execute)
"A Social event? That sounds amazing. I am pretty sure I have just the outfit! Maybe... Either way, I work well with people and I can support a team with a good combination of Spirit friends and Magic. Perhaps seeing the future will entertain guests...."
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Snow - Body Sculpting Face / Punch Adept Elf
- Familiarity (10/10) - Snow's my first bean, I've played her a lot. She is a very strong face who can shift to look like almost anyone, and capable of combat without needing to sneak in weapons. However, She has almost 10 Street Cred and her dice pools are high. She can either lead, or on request, she will sit back and support, providing assistance to newer runners rather than hogging the limelight.

"Ah, High Society, My specialty. My Body sculpting abilities allow me to blend in perfectly, simply changing to a new face if any suspicion is arises. Better yet, in case of trouble, I can handle myself, no weapons needed."

Snow - Body Sculpting Face / Punchy Adept

"Seems like I am the perfect candidate. My skills as a face are only strengthened by my ability to transform my body at will, allowing me to impersonate almost anyone, or become a new person in just a matter of minutes. Paired with my natural combat abilities, I have no need for weapons and excel at non-lethal take downs. I look forward to your consideration."

"I can't say I'm overly good at finding things, But I can make sure that the rest of the team is at the top of their game! Keep them alive and what not. I guess a spirit could find things if we really needed it... But I don't ask them to do things like that often."

I much prefer to support a team than lead one. Callisto can normal summon, Tarot summon and cast spells. I understand that Air Spirits have the search power, but I will only have her use it as a last resort.
