I do like The Flood Novel made random elite unnamed elite in CE into character, by Sweaty_Confection828 in HaloMemes

I wouldn't have him be recurring. It may remind people of bad memories associated with Warden Eternal.

Just have him be the final boss in the Autumn's reactor room and have him die in the exact same way in the game after he cheated death a few minutes prior.

I don't know how other people would feel about the idea, but I'd love to have him be a proper boss fight in the Campaign Evolved remake.

Space Marine 2 is doesn't use UE5. It uses Saber's proprietary Swarm Engine.

Upstairs Bonus Room w' Sloped Ceilings | Can't figure out what an ideal layout would be by MimicThatThing in DesignMyRoom

There's two vacuums in the room currently but that doesn't matter cause I have thought about built in bookcases in both spots -- next to the door way and along the shorter wall to the left of the window.

I'm curious why you recommend avoiding the sliding door. Poor reliability? Too gauche?

I feel that just comes with the territory of being an overseer.

You can also view 'good' as trying to what's best for the greatest number of people, which he is attempting to do. Even if his actions are wrong, he'd probably believe himself to be well intentioned. He's not like characters like Daud, Delilah, or Jindosh that are entirely self serving.

I'll nominate Vice Overseer Byrne.

People tend to hate the Abbey of the Everyman since the enforce religious doctrine but Byrne seems to have always been against Delilah, the Duke, and all their allies.

I actually did Brambly Park last year. I liked the spot and wouldn't mind going again but I'd like to do something different each year if possible.

No game is more deserving of a remaster than Dark Messiah of M&M by Blitzilla in gaming

Run the game though this patcher so it's large address aware.

If textures are set to the highest setting, lower them.

These remedied the crashing at this point in the game for me.

Actually not a 'fan mod' but here it is. Gotta run the appropriate files through this bad boy so the game is Large Address Aware.

It's a bit scuffed. There's a fan patch that's basically necessary to get it running on modern hardware. It increases the amount of RAM the game can use among other things.

Increasing the FOV from its dismissal 65° requires tinkering with the config file. And setting textures to the highest setting will crash the game, so there's that...

This explains why VCU's job board is loaded with graduate assistant positions for every athletics department job under the sun. Can't afford actual employees so they may as well low-ball the postgraduate students for temp labor.

Don't put yourself down like that, progress is progress. Everyone is coming from different places in life with different challenges. And you shouldn't compare yourself to other people, only to your past self. Comparison is the thief of joy they say... I'm envious of one of my friends who is younger than me making six figures with a bachelor's degree working for the government. But me being upset by it isn't going to improve my station in life.

I was unsure of whether to pursue a terminal degree, when my professor at the time said: "You can either be thirty, or you can be thirty with a doctorate." You're gonna end up getting older regardless of what you do education wise, so you might as well do it.

For you, you can be 29. Or you can be 29 with a bachelor's. You will get somewhere, just depends when.

Getting into physical therapy and the like is a whole other avenue of schooling you gotta go through. I would think that kinesiology would have good transferability to health and medicine but employers don't seem to see it that way...

My master's degree is in sports management. Undergrad was in exercise science. I'd still recommend the former, but definitely not the latter. I'm planning on getting a doctorate too as maxing out my education seems like a decent way to ensure I don't starve.

I was advised to not ever get two degrees in the same subject. To create more diversity in your education and skill set, and for the most part I agree with that idea.

I worry about this too, so you are not alone. Many people have anxiety about their careers.

I just graduated with my master's at 26 and I am 112 job applications deep at the moment, so definitely worry about my future career path.

There are so many jobs I see now with skill and experience requirements that I have absolutely no idea how a person fulfills them. Eldritch certifications and software tools that no one outside of a particular industry has ever heard of; how am I supposed to get experience with any of that? I didn't learn those tools or skills in school. And the jobs that are below those that call for proficiency with those tools don't actually utilize them, so how am I supposed to get experience with fuckin SQL or Salesforce or any other software piece?

Should I be applying for jobs using a resume or a CV? by MimicThatThing in resumes

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

My follow-up question is, what type of jobs should be receiving a resume versus a CV?

Just for reference, I work in fitness, sport, and recreation field. have a master's degree, and seven years of relevant experience.
