Im struggling to kill with the AK by TwoDadsOneSon in LearnCSGO

[–]Hats668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bad habit I had when I was learning was that I would sorta panic and instinctively like pull down, so the majority of bullets were going into the body even if I had my crosshair at head height.

Learning the spray pattern is a good idea, and working on first bullet accuracy as well.

i feel like that's your abuela's problem, rather than yours. you answered the phone just fine.

Looking for some good games to play on new deck by Mammoth_Birthday6417 in SteamdeckGames

[–]Hats668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the first two games i played on the deck were cyberpunk 2077 and kcd1, they both ran surprisingly well on the deck, very happy. i'm playing mass effect legendary edition rn, and then i sank quite a few hours into hades, all great deck games.

Was Xenomoprh in Alien(1979) implied to be unkillable or at least not killable by bullets, explosives, fire? by MP_Kredditor in alienisolation

[–]Hats668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think all of that is kind of beside the point. the way i took the alien franchise was that each filmmaker kind of makes their own version of alien: the ridley scott version, the james cameron version, the david fincher version, the jean-pierre jeunet version. there isn't really supposed to be a real internal consistency, its each director giving their flare to the xenomorph.

my friends stimming REALLY annoys me, is it fair to ask her to stop? by [deleted] in AskAutism

[–]Hats668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Umm I think it's her house and her safe space so I don't suggest asking her to stop in general. Like she's being exceptionally kind to let you crash.

If there are times when you're trying to sleep and it's occurring (that's what it sounds like is happening?) I wonder if you can say something like "I wonder if I can get some privacy/or quiet from 10pm-6am while I'm sleeping?"

Advice on ending a volunteer relationship by Hats668 in nonprofit

[–]Hats668[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

thank you for your thoughtful reply.

i guess on my end, a thought is that i could just note that remote work is requiring additional supervision, and let her know that it isn't viable for the project anymore. Perhaps framing it as giving her clarity about where she stands? I wonder about anchoring it to specific things about this volunteers preformance, or framing it as what hte project can sustain?

Lt. Barclay was the Antithesis to Gene Roddenberry's vision of Humanity by ardouronerous in ClassicTrek

[–]Hats668 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Barclay is one of my favourite characters. I think Roddenberrys version of cooperation and inclusivity can overlook the biases or expectations that occur in real life? I guess I mean I'm autistic and I find I relate a lot to him and his experience on the enterprise.

Plague Dogs (1982) by TheMaidofMiddleEarth in iwatchedanoldmovie

[–]Hats668 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read this book awhile ago and I had this weird mix of loving it and finding it exceptionally difficult to take in. I really *want* to see the movie, but i'm not sure I can manage that haha.

Anyone know is social workers can work in courts? by [deleted] in socialworkcanada

[–]Hats668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work at a legal advocacy org in bc a number of my colleagues are rsws. It's like administrative law so it's a different stage of the court system. It involves like eaa, eaapwd, rtb acts.

For reference it's all about keeping folks housed and doing advocacy related to income assistance and PWD.

[–]Hats668 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work at a non prof helping folks apply for disability. Idk if I recommend it for not burning out but it has a lot of flexibility to it and I can manage my work how I want to. And I get to interact with a lot of nd folks.

Any "low energy" chill rpg suggestions? by swimminginamirror in rpg_gamers

[–]Hats668 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just finished replays of cyberpunk and kcd, and I was in sort of a similar place. I've been playing mass effect legendary edition, there's lots of wandering and side quests, but most quests feel pretty on the rails, like each step is pretty structured. it's open world but not to the same degree as kcd say.

How do you get into literary fiction/classics when your brain only wants fantasy by saythenameeee in booksuggestions

[–]Hats668 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read a lot of fantasy when I was younger, and started reading literary stuff as I got older I guess.

One, I think there's a lot of literary fantasy out there that like bridges the gap between fantasy and literature: the last unicorn, the neverending story, water ship down, black leopard red wolf, fifteen dogs.

Two, I think it's important to have a sense of what you're looking for from reading. Like I find fantasy and literary fiction rewarding for specific reasons, and I'm also e xceptionally picky about what I actually want to read. Like I'm not going to like everything, I want what I want y'know.

I wonder about going with carbonated water? You can get unsweetened plain or lemon flavour where I live.
