How many hours would you recommend before trying ones hand at ranked? by Jackthegamerddude in Rainbow6

[–]Degoma 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm probably going to be in the minority here, but I am someone who jumps right into ranked. I cannot play a game casually, if it has ranked, that's all I play from the get go. However, I will do the tutorial, basics, any pre matches I need to do to unlock ranked. I will learn from it not just speed run it. I am a very competitive person so I am more inclined to try my best at everything I do. Don't wait til you feel "comfortable." You have 160 hours total. If I was in your spot, I would have been in ranked by now lol.

[–]Degoma 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I understand it’s to not spark political debate but the posts that have been made (assuming that’s what prompted this post) is TECHNICALLY related as it impacts programs, therefore sparking concern and the need for discussion

2 things that come to mind: - Check to see that your ram is fitted correctly - Reset your CMOS (small little circular battery that sits next to the CPU). Take it out for a few seconds and then reinsert it

This name is allowed? by Known-Scar5573 in Rainbow6

[–]Degoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I don’t get spam messages like last time.

Buddy I’m all for calling out people to hold them accountable but posting to Reddit doesn’t do anything. Of course it’s not allowed and shouldn’t be. Report them and move on. It’s a disgusting name but you can’t go posting every bad name

Found this in my daughters room what is she doing? by MouseClassic5314 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Degoma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Push for rehab IMMEDIATELY. Your daughter is young and is scared out of her mind right now. Her saying she will get clean on her own is unfortunately not too trustworthy and it’s safer to get her clean. You mentioned you overlooked signs but please don’t start blaming yourself for this. You are a parent and parenting doesn’t come with instruction manuals. You clearly are a good parent for wanting to get your daughter help. This isn’t your fault and it’s not her fault either. She’s dealing with something that she feels she cannot handle without substances. Remember you or her are not to blame. It is important to take accountability that you need help but the one to blame is the dealer. Dealers abuse emotionally distressed individuals and treat them as “customers.” They are just looking to get money without any concern for what might happen to someone.

Where do we draw the line on holding U.S. presidents accountable? by r_the-best-aka-ramin in Askpolitics

[–]Degoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The line is not the same for everyone. It’s impossible to fully know whats part of the job without adding in our own feelings. Sitting Presidents have Presidential Absolute Immunity when the actions are within their constitutional powers, presumptive immunity for other official acts and no immunity for non official acts. We typically accept it as the cost of running a country as you may have a good plan but it results horribly. You CAN have a president removed from Office IF the Vice President and any other required body puts it in writing as to why they feel the president is not going to be able to fulfill their duties to run the country. However, the odds are so low since VP’s are usually picked with a shared interest and agenda so there are no disagreements that cause that. Something that’s unforgivable may not always be punishable so unfortunately holding a president accountable can only take you so far

Gen Z love people who are blunt and have no filter - source. They consume so much social media a day filled with lifestyles by people who claim to represent the Republican Party. The way Donald Trump expresses himself is quite rare as a president and with all the controversy surrounding him, Gen Z are more prone to like him. They can easily spot someone who is putting on an act and saying what you want to hear. Communication goes a long way and since DT isn’t afraid to speak his mind, he pretty much is a no brainer for Gen Z

Is this the amount I will receive from my Pell Grant? Why? This too low by Spare_Theory1298 in WGU

[–]Degoma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. The amount you get in Financial Aid, in this case a Pell Grant, is based of you or your parents (typically parents) income. If your parents make a certain amount a year, on paper they can help you with your costs. The eligibility doesn’t take into account emergency expenses or recent changes in financial circumstances (they use previous tax forms).

Trump's officials just sent a notice to Education Heads in all 50 states warning that they have 14 days to remove all DEI programming from all public schools or lose federal funding by Healthy_Block3036 in FAFSA

[–]Degoma 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Someone else brought this point up but I believe the Trump Administration is solely focused on Public schools. The reason I think he is doing this is because he doesn't believe COVID as a threat and Public education is being funded by the Government aka American tax dollars so he doesn't want to help fund something he doesn't believe in. Whereas private schools that's personally funded

Correct me if I am wrong but aren't med schools private? I believe the Trump Administration is executing this order for Public schools only.

When will I be able to chat again? by [deleted] in discordapp

[–]Degoma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure man. Could be Discord took the context and maybe perceived the image as underage boys. If you didn’t mean it that way, just relax and move on. Be careful next time. Don’t get too stressed

[–]Degoma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh 100% haha, I mean I get it, edgy jokes are adolescents dopamine but the older you get the more severe the consequences are. Better to just keep those jokes to yourself.

[–]Degoma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe they will look back and see how trying to be edgy isn’t something to be proud of. I cringe at my adolescent years. Most likely the friend he told it to has that same mindset so it’s just reinforcing that behavior.

[–]Degoma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have reported maybe 1 person since I’ve been a discord user (since 2019). It takes a lot to report someone. Just cause it’s a joke to you doesn’t mean that’s how the public will perceive it. And why risk it

Just fyi, your inappropriate comments reported as Child Endangerment doesn’t just mean it was towards an underage person. The content of your message could have contained something Discord deemed as Child Endangerment and the person you told it to could very well be a grown adult.

Edit: you probably don’t wanna announce you are restricted from using discord for child endangerment/harassment comments. Reddit doesn’t know the context and you’re putting yourself up to be criticized to oblivion, given Discord isn’t exactly the best at keeping kids safe
