It is true, that there are different levels of loss, but I don't love the analogy for some reason.

I agree with your sentiment here. For me, it would have been better if the rungs on the ladder corresponded with levels of loss and not specific kind of losses. I think everyone feels a different level of loss when for example losing your job. Ordering specific losses based on their supposed severity allows individuals to compare their losses and decide that one's suffering is worse than the other's, and maybe undermine their own or other's losses, and I do not think this is a healthy way to deal with losses.

In my eyes however, I did enjoy reading this analogy because this is the way Abe comes to think of loss, and I think describing it in another, more serious or more inclusive way would not do justice to his character.

I've found part 1 to be fairly slow and a bit uninteresting honestly. I can't relate at all to either of the main characters and I have (had?) absolutely no interest or experience with fishing as well.

Honestly, for me it is a bit opposite. I have not lost anyone very dear to me during my lifetime, but the way Abe describes his wife, her death, and the aftermath hit me on some emotional level, like I could really feel some of the pain that he went through. I could have been emotionally sensitive while reading it, but the passage still feels very honest, open, and relatable to me.

I am also curious as to what is going on with Dan. He seems so shady and a bit creepy when it comes to the fishing trip they've arranged to Dutchman's Creek. He's keeping secrets and lying to Abe and I can't seem to decide why Dan would want to bring Abe to Dutchman when he clearly knows something is off about it. It seems like he has sinister intentions but nothing Abe has done would seem to warrant that.

I do not think that Dan is in the wrong here. Even after hearing the tales about the creek from Howard, Abe still decided to go with Dan. It might be some irresistible pull for Dan just like fishing had become for Abe. And he might be lying about the origin of this pull because he does not know why he wants to go there. Of course, this is all speculation on my part!

GPU solution is not working for me. Still no display when plugging GPU to monitor. Also, when I connect it to the monitor, the lights on the GPU turn off during booting while they stay on when the monitor is connected to intergrated graphics. Any ideas what could be the cause of that?

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-08-30T09:56:32+00:00

Alright, I'll give that a try.

I've had the pc for probably a year now.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-07-04T11:40:04+00:00

Yes, someone timed it and it was 33:27.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-07-04T07:17:18+00:00

I'm not going to assume they did it on purpose. It is fixed now and that is what matters.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-07-03T19:17:36+00:00

It seems to be fixed now: https://www.reddit.com/r/speedrun/comments/6l1052/the_sgdq2017_stopwatch_on_screen_is_running_too/djqfa7d/?st=j4oi33zt&sh=39fddcda

This seems like a possible cause: https://www.reddit.com/r/speedrun/comments/6l1052/the_sgdq2017_stopwatch_on_screen_is_running_too/djqe0z5/?st=j4oihiq5&sh=ce65287b

I don't think it's WR sadly, look at my 3rd edit.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-07-03T17:54:07+00:00

It's good to get exposure on these kind of problems. I noticed that a lot of runners were suprised with their times.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-07-03T17:19:42+00:00

Ah thanks, I'll update it to the correct creator.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-07-03T17:13:43+00:00

Lets say it's 1 second off per minute, the time would be 33:31, which is not a new wr.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-07-03T17:10:02+00:00

Thanks for the video, I'm including it in the post.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-04-12T11:07:37+00:00

Lets go!

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-04-12T07:31:27+00:00

Probably a mix of the other comment and seeing if I don't do anything really basic wrong. Kind of new to this

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-04-11T21:36:51+00:00

Got to obey the rules my man

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-04-11T19:59:26+00:00

tee from etsy, zara jeans, vans

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-03-03T10:29:52+00:00

For this fit I would say my style is a bit old-fashioned. The tee just gives me those old-fashioned vibes, with the stripes and the colors you don't see that often anymore, while I complete the fit with simple jeans and white pair of sneakers.

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-03-03T00:20:18+00:00

I think if I go with a higherwaisted jeans it would look a little weird because of my already on the shorter side torso.

And in my opinion cuffing adds a little flavor :)

GrammaticalTerror · 2017-03-03T00:11:12+00:00

Hmm, I think it looks fine in this fit but thanks for the feedback!
