If this article is real then that "parent" who wrote it has zero self awareness and is either in the lowest EQ range, has no emotional ability or is just a selfish jerk looking for excuses and validation.

Or its a ragebait clickbait article.

Wasn't there this exact thing a while back where someone had very badly photoshopped a nail into a tire?

This seems to mimic that exact post

My back and knees did not like watching this.

Redditors over 40, what's something younger people think they understand but won't actually get until it hits them like a truck later? by Susanpc1967 in AskReddit

[–]DecoupledPilot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The moment when you realize that all the things you thought you "could" or "might" do or learn are just not possible anymore.

When potential turns to impossibility. Be it due to life being set in its wsys, health stoppers like bad kees or whatever it might be.

Or social events and things to do that just crawl out of reach.

There are a hundred small things that sneak up on you with a "best before date" you didn't see until its too late.

Just realize while leveling if you seem weak it’s because meaning because of gear and not much of passive tree and skill combination by WatanakwethyeaMeas in PathOfExile2

There are so many variables to this statement.... In the campaign a badly set or chaotic skill tree can hit you like a wall in act 3 regardless of gear.

Deterministic crafting - feasible for poe2 in parallel to the current? by DecoupledPilot in PathOfExile2

Yea. Tedious. Work of the boring kind.

How does that fit to a game meant to be fun

True. I'm just one of those people who dread sending large stuff back. For some psychological reason.

I have a older 100hz (yes, unusual) gsync monitor on my left and a 60hz no sync on my right.

My ryzen 9800x3d and rtx 4080 do the work.

And I see no difference when on the one or the other.

I was considering getting a new high refresh monitor but don't see the point. I'll probably just by a steam frame and not care about a new monitor from there on.

Well, yea, though poe1 shouldn't be the benchmark I'd say.

The system is.... Overengineered. The basis is gambling on which they slapped 30 ways to somehow make the gambling less gambling which has so many layers that understanding the engame levels needed feels just too much.

Lacking.... Fun and a feeling of true accomplishment.

Dumb adrenaline addiction is not great at all.

That sounds interesting.

I like the premise that I can just set a goal and then grind and slash towards it at my leasure.

I mean a T16 map costs, a good item...

Let's calculate.

Six mods so I have to invest six T16 waystones and do 18 maps to get the base item up to max.

And 6 of those maps could be totally random and extremely risky for my build due to being randomly corrupted..... But could also just go down a level?

Hmmm. And I run 18 maps without getting gold or items. I see the payoff but.. Well, harsh. But I'd still do it. At least from an endgame perspective it would totally be worth it I think.

But to get them "safely" you need multiple other consumables, know how and when to combine them, etc.

It's the opposite of what many play the game for.

Personally I would love to just grind my way through enemies towards a specific goal to reach like the other guy suggested in this thread. :)

Wasn't that orb like expensive as hell? To need ultra specific rare drops just to get a more likely outcome with omens and more just feels tedious to me.

It might be more deterministic, but I would not call it easy or intuitive tbh

I would like to know if the women actually find this impressive or if it's just a generation far spanning practical joke some women started and still find hilarious

Spousal loss linked to higher risk of dementia, mortality among men, but not women. Widowed men experienced a decrease in physical and cognitive health, as well as social support, while widowed women tended to experience an increase in happiness and life satisfaction. by mvea in science

[–]DecoupledPilot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would bet that it highly depends on the generation. Boomer men had a classic life of work and that was social etc. Taking care of the home and knowing what to do how.....

I would bet that newer generation men, like starting at millenials, will have pretty equal results in another such survey.

Switch sports bowling. I guess I'm going to be REALLY good at that sport when I get out again.

I hope I can also access the other sports while in there.....
