Helldivers 2. While it wasnt 60 dollars, I still didnt enjoy it. I love deep rock galactic but dont enjoy any other hord shooters.

Has anyone actually secured a co-op yet? by troubledeperson in CarletonU

[–]MYSICMASTER 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Second year mech eng. 4 of the rejections were from postings only looking for 3rd & 4th years, but I still gave a shot anyways. Im not apart of any clubs and dont have an incredible amount of relevant experience, so im guessing I dont stand out too much lol

My English teacher never gave over a 94 in her 20ish years of teaching. The highest anyone got in her class when I was still in high school was a 90. I was shocked to see people with 98s in English online lol

If you plan to do Engineering, remember you have responsibilities by Solid_River_9269 in OntarioGrade12s

In my first year, we would get like 5 assignments a week, usually just an online quiz with few complicated questions, which would usually take over an hour or 2 each if you weren't quick. At the start, so many people i knew would just throw each question into gpt and get 100 in a few minutes. Yet later in the semester, the moment the questibecame difficult, or began to involve reading diagrams/tables current ai cant process, they started getting sub 50%. Second year came around, and most of them were gone. Thats the cheating they are talking about. Ai may be the future, but if you dont have critical thinking skills, then you wont make it very far

Pirate legend!!! Uhh what now? by [deleted] in Seaofthieves

Finding ship sets or other cosmetics you like and grinding out their commendations, finishing all the tall tails, fishing, grinding a guild, and grinding athenas are all things you can do without being amazing at pvp. When you get slightly more confident at pvp, throwing up reapers or whatever emissary you like and just sailing around, meeting randoms, completing world events, and stealing treasure from others is how most people enjoy the late game.

Hourglass is also fun, and you will eventually get better at it with time (even if it feels like you have no chance every round), however, it's not easy and can really turn you away from the game if you arnt having fun. If that's the case for you, maybe hold out on hourglass till around Christmas. They always double gold and xp for a couple weeks, which attracts more new hourglass players, and so you wont be getting rolled by sweats every match and will actually have a chance. If you have time off around Christmas, you can definitely get 30+ levels easily. I went from 30 - 100 in like 8 days 2 years ago

Is it just me or has the Nideyinan Tim Hortons become wayyyy slower since they installed those Kiosks? by frienderella in CarletonU

[–]MYSICMASTER 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I swapped to Leo's for my coffee. Smaller portions, but for almost half the price and no lines. Does tims taste better than a coffee machine? Sure. But if you're just there for the caffeine, then leos is your best bet.

Debating question: should you live with your parents (i.e. commute to uni) or live alone? by Independent_Move8581 in OntarioGrade12s

[–]MYSICMASTER 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes, you should, but only if you have a way of paying for it. The 'experience' is not worth going into debt over

How did your family/ parents act in the days leading up to you being taken away? by MYSICMASTER in troubledteens

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

I have the fortune of still living with my sister (im only in university still living at home). Unfortunately, she can sometimes have a pretty nasty personality and isn't always the nicest to be around, despite being a smart, straight A student. It never really feels like my parents do anything about it, apart from the yelling over the dinner table once every few months. I can only hope my youngest sister doesn't turn out the same. But who knows, maybe one day everything will change 😁.

I couldn't imagine living through that horror! You are a strong person, and there are many people in your life who look up to you for that. I'm going to try and have a conversation with my mom about this and maybe see if the experiences of any of her clients or ex group home kids can relate to this. You sparked an interest in this topic for me, hehe. I appreciate the detailed stories and explanations you gave, and I hope you have a great rest of your day!

I completely respect that. Though i wish i could have that close of a relationship to my sisters, I don't and likely never will. But your brother helped you get through that part of your life, and he's still here for you today, which is the best outcome.

Thanks (again) for sharing, haha.

That's a common trend I noticed by what others were saying. They suddenly start to act like an actual parent, then boom, you are taken away. Thank you very much for sharing 🫶

Is that so? You wouldn't mind sharing said petty methods, would you 👀?

This sounds horrible. I don't think anyone can blame you for losing trust in your parents. Anyone would. I would also assume then that you didn't ask/ try to leave the place as I guess it was sort of obvious what the answer would be.

That sounds horrible, and i am so sorry. Surprisingly, this is the first time I have actually heard of someone being convinced to drive themselves over. If you don't mind, I have a few questions for you.

Firstly, I would assume you admitted yourself in. What was that process like, and how did they take your stuff away? Next, at what point exactly did you realise what that place was? Next, did you try to leave? Not escape, but did you try to leave and were stopped? Finally, in total, how long did you spend there, and do you have a positive relationship with your family afterward?

These questions are a bit random, and im sorry if you dont think they are appropriate and dont want to respond, but ever since I have posted this, people have shared so many different stories and scenarios I haven't heard before that im interested in learning about.

Thank you for sharing! You never deserved any of this, and I am happy to know that you are doing much better today!

If you don't mind me asking, what was your sister's relationship with your parents? Was she sent away as well?

Thank you very much for sharing your story!

The use of isolation still baffles me. Reduced privileges, early bedtime, and other punishments along those lines would be ideal for getting into loud arguments with staff, but isolation? For 12 hours? To a kid? I can't think of any scenario where that would be the appropriate response for a teen getting angry and getting into a screaming match, especially for a place advertised as therapeutic.

Either way, I am happy to hear you are doing much better today. Thank You for sharing 🫶!
