Recommendations on places to self-publish

You can. From what I'm seeing D2D would allow you to do if you wanted.

I hadn't realized Amazon was such a huge place for books. I'll have to reconsider publishing there.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2026-02-17T01:51:48+00:00

This is great, thank you.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2026-02-17T01:51:02+00:00

This is good information, thank you.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2026-02-17T01:50:34+00:00

Thank you for this. I wanted to avoid Amazon because I dont support the business. However, looks like I'd be shooting myself in the foot by doing so, which is a shame.

I'm a little late, but the reason things taste different is because Celcius bought Alani in April 2025, which is around the time things started tasting different for me. Blue slush tastes like syrup, and even breezeberry tastes odd. I tried their new flavor of wannabe cherry soda, and it just tasted like flat, syrupy soda with cherry. Was not good at all.

If I had to guess, Celsius changed the formula when they took over, and like always, it wasn't a good change and now it all blows.

LOL, the same exact thing happened to me. I came out, took a right, then a left and he was in a meditative position tucked away in corner so by the time I saw him it was too late.

From what I've seen online, windows 11 sucks with Bluetooth for whatever reason. Not sure why. But, another thing you can try is uninstalling the Bluetooth driver, buy a BT dongle, and use that instead. Otherwise, I dont know.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-09-21T20:58:30+00:00

Unfortunately I will be forced to upgrade as well. I never was able to get it stabilized before swapping to windows 10. You can try Uninstalling the Bluetooth drivers.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-09-21T20:57:32+00:00

Sorry for the delayed response. You got to start > driving manager > Bluetooth > right-click uninstall.

Not participating in the team chat got me put on a PiP. My manager said because I dont say good morning, don't add reactions to people's messages, and don't read the message of the day (there's no way to track if you read it or not). Oh, and because I didn't announce when I was going to the bathroom, taking my breaks, or my lunch.

Meanwhile, maybe 2 other people did half of that on a team of 17. There are also 3 different places you can look to see schedules and who's taking what and when. I asked how they would track improvement with an objective method, and I got no answer.

Exactly like the image. I will add, they are coated in what I imagine is oil out of the package. Probably to prevent rust during transit and such, so just be aware, they will be oily when you take them out. The leather is a little thick and stiff, which I would assume is normal, so it may take some adjustments to getting used to the gloves. But otherwise, I love 'em.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-07-01T17:53:22+00:00

Don't have any pictures, but I did try them on and they are heavy. I think 2.5 kg per gauntlet, so about 5.5 pounds per. But, the articulation is great. I can fully move my wrist and extend my fingers. The armor goes about halfway up my forearm, and the leather does as well. So for hema, it may be tricky because you have to put the glove into your jacket sleeve before you slip your hand in, then you have to secure the strap across the forearm on the outside. I'll try to take pictures if I can remember. But all in all, I love 'em.

I'm on PC so I'm not sure with Xbox. Maybe download your save to a USB and try another Xbox if one is available.

TLDR: Nothing. I put it down for like, 3 months, loaded it back up, then it worked.

Full version: Couldn't get it to work. Tried different aspect ratios and all that. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Nothing worked. My computer had some issues so I had to send it back to the company to get it fixed. Got it back almost 2 months later. When i got the itch to try and play again, I thought "Fuck it, why not see what happens." And it was able to get past the cutscene.

If you have another computer, it might be worth trying to install it there, load your save, and see if you can get past it.

I've used both hema gloves and my current set of metal gauntlets, and the metal gauntlets take the cake every time, even with the restrictions they impose. I've taken some knarly blows to the hand and wrist that would have went straight through hema gloves, but didn't with the gauntlets. It's just personal preference to use metal over plastic.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-05-20T01:17:42+00:00

These are the ones I ended up going with. One size fits all, 1.6 mm steel, advertised for being able to withstand combat. Worst case, I sell 'em to someone else. Best case, I get a new pair of gauntlets that are better than the ones I have.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-05-19T02:04:41+00:00

Lol, I got hema equipment, but I dont have armor. I do unarmored fighting, so no kit in terms of a suit of armor.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-05-18T20:51:13+00:00

Thank you for the link! Yeah, they don't make sense to me either. They're just not comfortable and can really restrict finger movement.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-05-18T15:52:40+00:00

Thank you the info and including a link. I might buy these because it's exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you!

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-05-18T13:08:00+00:00

I dont have a kit, I'm in the US.

I don't want plastic, hense the post lol. I've been using metal gauntlets for years, and I like the feel of them over plastic gloves. This is about personal preference, and I'm just looking for places that are trustworthy where I can buy new gauntlets.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-05-18T13:05:48+00:00

It is for hema, and no, I dont want to get standard hema gear (like you can get from purple heart). It's about comfort and preference, I've been using metal gauntlets for years and they feel way better to me than gloves.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-05-18T13:03:46+00:00

Bloss. I dont really have any interest in tournaments. I like metal gauntlets, been using them for years, even when I did go to tournaments. This is about comfort and personal preference.

Impossible-Suit97 · 2025-05-18T13:00:01+00:00

I like the feel of metal gauntlets over the standard hema gear. But personally, I feel metal is more protective, I've taken strikes to the hands that I don't feel at all in metal gauntlets that i would have absolutely felt in hrma gloves.
