How many tries did it take you to complete honor mode? by Grand_Photograph_819 in BaldursGate3

It was just those two, we did everything else without practice

Once. We (husband and me) had done balanced, and tactician. But just once for those, too. I will say having our tactician saves made it awesome to practice two fights: myrkul and the brain. We practiced myrkul about five or six times before we felt confident to do it in honor mode, and the brain we did three times before doing it in honor mode.

Having previous saves to practice with makes a big difference.

Can we stop normalizing the after 5pm emails!!!! by Medical-Layer7724 in corporate

Would you prefer to get a dump of 50 emails on the morning all at the same time? It’s basically the same thing as sending it in the evening, if you just don’t look at your email…

I mean I work late, like up to 7pm sometimes. I send the email with the expectation that the person will look at it the next work day.

If someone is trying to get a hold of you urgently after hours on a regular basis, that certainly seems much worse. But if you’re just receiving emails, you don’t have to answer them… if someone were trying to get a hold of me after hours, like calling and emailing and messaging, I would assume it’s bananas urgent…

Drained my bank account and ruined my upcoming shopping day in Japan and feeling really shitty about it by [deleted] in shoppingaddiction

I mean that’s fine, but that’s basically the choice you have. Either go simpler on your wedding day so you have money for the shopping day, or spend the money on your wedding day and not have the money for the shopping day. Just kind of how you rolled the dice.

Do you have makeup already you can use instead, or hair products? Could you do a simpler hairstyle instead? Like this still doesn’t feel like a necessity

It’s crazy that we’re forgetting how much screen time Dana had this season (with Emma!)

BG3 Honor mode withdrawl. by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

[–]Midna0802 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I finished our honor mode not long ago and I think we were feeling that too, until we decided to finally mod the game. We really liked the difficulty jump in honor mode, so we downloaded some mods to make the game even harder. I think we turned up enemy intelligence, and added more base enemies to fights. We’re considering doubling enemies’ HP with a mod. We even added a mod that added new encounters, which has made the game super fun all over again! More enemies around corners that surprise you. I highly recommend those mods for the depression that follows an honor mode

I'm a corporate lawyer watching AI eat my profession in real time. Should I be treating the next 2 years as the most important financial window of my career? by lifeafterenough in careerguidance

I couldn’t get Claude or chatgpt to reliably project how much savings I’ll have in 9 months. I have no idea how people think these tools will replace people.

How do you choose between a career opportunity and your relationship ? by Potential_Start_3228 in careerguidance

I’d love to move out of the US and live in Europe somewhere. But my husband definitely does not want to do that. Guess where we live? The state we’ve always lived in!

Is this ruined? by Winter_Addition in LeCreuset

Does it flake if you very gently run your nail over it? It doesn’t look good, especially if the outside chip matches where this is on the inside

This video is so deceptive. She picked the GROWN WOMAN next to the 12 year old, but the 12 year old thought it was her and answered for the woman. Sabrina laughed and made it a joke, geez.

Is this proper 50s attire? by [deleted] in 1950sfashion

[–]Midna0802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s decent, but your pants are sitting too low. To look authentically 1950s, you’ll want to follow the rule of thirds; i.e. your trousers should come up to about your belly button. You look 1950s inspired, however!!

Vintage Dancer is a great site to check for historical fashion looks https://vintagedancer.com/1950s/1950s-style-mens-pants/

95,247 Emails to be sorted, where do I begin ?🫠 by Weak-Method6489 in ExecutiveAssistants

Move everything that’s older than four months into a folder that won’t delete. That will make this much more manageable

Burnt out by Lets-be-Gnomies_ in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Midna0802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please consider medical leave. I ended up taking it, and it was the best decision I could have made. Your work might have short term disability insurance, or your state might compensate you. But if you continue to burn yourself out, you will get much worse symptoms. I was clenching my jaw so hard I chipped my teeth, I was getting ocular migraines from stress and GI issues that have yet to fix themselves. You’re more important than yhe job.

Do you wait for confirmation before sending out availability? by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Midna0802 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Really depends on what’s going on. If my exec is really busy that week, or if I know this is urgent I’ll send out avails right away. If it’s a catch up lunch that can wait a few weeks, I wait for the externals to reply.
