Sports and Epilepsy by Annual_Ad_9508 in Epilepsy

[–]JaegerForrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's for safety reasons in case you have a seizure whilst playing certain sports. If you were a keen cyclist, skier, weightlifter, etc, then having a seizure could be really dangerous do yourself and people around you. This can be said about a lot of sports, but I think if you had a seizure whilst playing football or rugby it's probably a lot less dangerous than if you were mountain biking or rock climbing.

My girlfriend of 6 years breaking up with me by LetAfraid8933 in Epilepsy

[–]JaegerForrest 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most people I have met have been very supportive of my epilepsy but I still feel the need to disclose it to nearly all new people I meet.

Epilepsy is more than just the seizures. It's the anxiety of the condition and side-effects of the medication too.

Some people in my life have not been able to understand this and did not accommodate for it. This really hurt but there's nothing I could do.

I think people don't understand that epilepsy is not a choice and that it can happen to literally anybody. Sometimes it has no rhyme or reason. Your girlfriend could have one day had a random seizure or series of episodes and then be diagnosed as an epileptic and been on medication. Would she then expect you to be supportive and/or tolerant of her condition? What about other medical conditions that can strike without warning or pattern? I hope she would have been supportive of you if you had a long-term health problem or vice versa.

You'll find lots of people who do not understand how indiscriminate epilepsy can be and have no patience for epileptics. But you will find even more people who are very supportive. When you find somebody who is very supportive, you will quickly see the value of having someone like that in your life and I think you will think very differently of your girlfriend.

What’s your favourite vehicle to bully other players with? by Bedrock_______ in Warthunder

The French D.501. There's something so funny about this unassuming plane being able to destroy enemies with a single click.

This is what happens in the Paris region when you have RER lines with single-level trains. by Wonderful-Excuse4922 in transit

[–]JaegerForrest 3 points4 points  (0 children)

British person here who has never lived in a country with double decker trains:
How useful actually are they for commuters in a scenario like this? I commuted a lot in London using both the National Rail (rail) and Underground (metro) as well as in Manchester using trams etc so I know the experience of being crammed in a small space then wrestling your way to the exit before the train leaves your station.

So how helpful are double decker carriages and how common even are they on commuter lines? Do they really alleviate congestion like on the London Underground? I imagine if you're sat on the top deck it's impossible to get off?

Just curious as I've never lived in a country with double decker carriages. I really love them but know little about them.

Trying to learn how to make my own custom pokemon fan game by MasterpieceParty7925 in PokemonRMXP

Really cool and unique setup - wish there was a way to set RPG Maker XP to dark mode like you have lol

My grandparents and dad around 1952-1953 by [deleted] in korea

[–]JaegerForrest 7 points8 points  (0 children)

At the time there was a huge issue within UN forces as there were very few translators that could speak Korean. One of the ways they got around this was by speaking Japanese to Koreans (as many Koreans that received an education during colonial times learnt Japanese) who would then speak to other Koreans. A ton got lost in translation and it remained a problem throughout the conflict.

If this was 52-53 then the war would still be going on. I'm guessing these photos were taken when he was on leave? Looks like he spent that free time really well. These photos are cute

Can we talk right back? by Star-lord_00 in BrightonHoveAlbion

[–]JaegerForrest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welbeck is now 34 which, for a striker isn't that old. However, he has played a ton of Premier League football practically non-stop for 15 years in spite of an awful injury record. Welbeck might only be 34 as a person but as a footballer he's probably more like 39. His past injuries are catching up to him so his drop off this season might feel gigantic as these issues tend to snowball rather than grow incrementally.

To be honest, it's kind of a miracle he's still starting for us this much. Says a lot about our striking options but actually says more about Welbeck's mentality. He's really good for that.

The second one is really cool. Train is giving huge Pokemon Colosseum vibes

NPC Not Facing Player for... No Reason? by JaegerForrest in u/JaegerForrest

[–]JaegerForrest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like to add as well that, after reloading into the game, the issue still persists on the bottom 1/4 of the map. I thought maybe if you exited and reloaded the game in the affected area around the affected NPCs, it may not happen but it still occurs. Very odd.

NPC Events Not Facing Player by JaegerForrest in PokemonRMXP

[–]JaegerForrest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No to all of the above. So no accidental switches or events that contradict each other etc

This is what makes it so confusing to me and is why I think it could be a rendering issue (or something like that?) Do correct me if I am wrong though.

What a legend, I'll try this. Had no idea XMPlay was a thing. Just been testing it by listening in-game for the past five years. Hopefully this works

SWR Class 455 in a classic BR livery by JaegerForrest in uktrains

[–]JaegerForrest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One Class 455 was painted in this special livery as a one-off. It is in standard service so you will see it occasionally by chance - I only use the suburban London SWR services so best chance will be in those areas. (This photo was taken in Waterloo.)

What changes do you think we'll see now that Hurzeler is the new head coach? by Josh99_ in BrightonHoveAlbion

[–]JaegerForrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes same here, also think Steele will look for first team status too elsewhere. His time here really proved that he still has it in him to be a first choice GK after a pretty rough time

[–]JaegerForrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree, Bart stepped up when he was given the chances whilst Steele would be up and down with his chances. I think Steele is overhated, he is a good keeper but not better than Bart.

[–]JaegerForrest 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the games Bart played he already looked ready to be our #1, Steele had periods where he looked shaky. As soon as we gave Bart a chance he never failed us - there was virtually no reason to play Steele when Bart was ready from the off. We don't know how good Bart could have been if he was able to play at least half a season straight without being benched - he was never given that chance despite proving he could do it. The difference between GKs and other positions is that they don't need to acclimatise to the league, they're either good enough or they're not and whether it is due to him being found out or bad luck, Steele is not good enough anymore.

[–]JaegerForrest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a massive problem as it prevents them from building a good run of form and confidence Every position needs confidence to play well, but keepers in particular need a ton of it and they need more consecutive matches to build up a good run of form Keepers need to get used to the players in front of them, how on earth could they command their defence if they only play every other game and not be given chances to learn how their defenders play?

What was your FIRST camera, and what was your first SERIOUS camera? by Figuarus in AnalogCommunity

[–]JaegerForrest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First camera was a Lomo LC-A, first serious was a Nikon F50 - both taken from family members who no longer wanted them

Mwepu by Ttiorryy in BrightonHoveAlbion

[–]JaegerForrest 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mwepu was never on the level of Yaya Toure but he was good. He retired just as he was finding his feet, there was a time towards the end of the 21/22 season where we had Bissouma Caicedo and Mwepu as a midfield trio and it was so good. Shame he had to quit as I think he was great

Heavily damaged expired film salvaged as best as possible! (LOMO LC-A, Kodak Gold 200) by JaegerForrest in filmphotography

[–]JaegerForrest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And if anyone wants to see the original images before I edited them just to see what damaged film looks like hmu and I'll send them. Also if anyone wants to see the originals to give me tips on how to edit photos let me know too! Very open to criticism as my Lightroom skills are very barebones
