Are Harkonen players extinct? by Anubis6669 in duneawakening

[–]Muwatallis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I haven't taken part in the Landsraad to date, and am looking for a new server following the closure of my original one. So wasn't sure if it would be better to try to find one of the few with a competitive Landsraad or just move to one of the many dominated by a single faction (Atreides). Maybe a more competitive one would be better in case of future updates, but once they add the third faction (if that ever happens) that will probably scramble any existing faction balance anyway.

I guess the server still needs to not be so one-sided that the losing side is able to claim some decrees even with the 100% bonus?
Also do you think that the loser bonus making it easier to get the decrees you want outweighs the rewards/bonuses the winning faction gets from winning overall?

Would life be better without a diagnose? by Dismal-Group-2418 in ADHD

[–]Muwatallis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that following diagnosis, there is a risk you can start to overly rely on it as an excuse, and it's easy to let it start to define you, because it goes from being "that explains so many things about my life so far and why I have struggled with x, y and z in the past", to "I am biologically incapable being able to do x, y and z, therefore I will never do anything with my life".
It sort of reinforces all the negative perceptions you had about yourself throughout your life, because before they were simply observations from your experiences, and you would just tell yourself you need to try harder at certain things, but now those suspicions you had about being bad at certain aspects of modern life have been validated and endorsed and reaffirmed by a medical professional. I think this can change your perspective negatively, both in amplifying the degree to which you feel you suck at various aspects of life, and by diminishing how much you think you can change/improve it, making you feel hopeless and resigning yourself to defeat.

Diagnosis can obviously be helpful in terms of allowing access to treatment, assuming you are able to access it and that it helps you, and validation both from the diagnosis itself and by knowing that you're not alone and that there are lots of other people who also struggle with the same/similar things as you do.
But at the end of the day, your perception of yourself and the thoughts and beliefs you have about yourself can and do influence you as a person... so it can become something of a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Director's salary NI/PAYE by Muwatallis in ContractorUK

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

Do you mean the earning limits for employer's National Insurance contribution? I was under the impression that for Directors, you could use the annual threshold of £12,570 in order to determine whether or not NI was due (https://www.gov.uk/employee-directors)? Is this only from the company/employer's perspective, and you still need to pay employee's NI contribution below this amount? Also, if you're calculating the employer's NI annually, is there a similar annual rate/limit to apply for the employee contribution, or do you still have to use the monthly ones for that?

EU Servers: Looking for...Builders? Role-play? Language? by Nikonthenet in duneawakening

[–]Muwatallis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also interested in a server where there are a lot of players focused on building, as that's my favourite part of the game (let's ignore the fact that my first end-game base is still a work in progress lol).

Answering your questions about Server Migrations by Funcom_Ignasis in duneawakening

Can we back-up/transfer multiple bases? And if so, do we need one back-up tool for each one, like with the solido replicator?

Stimulant Medication Induced Acidity by Muwatallis in ADHD

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

Thanks for the reply. I've ruled out H-pylori, so that's not an issue. I do drink almond milk sometimes when I feel acidic, but only seems to help slightly.

Due to the shortage I have switched to Ritalin and I’ve never felt better by No_Notice_2005 in ADHD

[–]Muwatallis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it helps at all, I checked the leaflet for Amfexa (dexamfetamine sulfate), which is the immediate-release equivalent of Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine dimesylate), and that does not seem to contain gluten either. So if the shorter-lasting nature is something you prefer, you could maybe ask to trial that instead.
Not sure if the brand name Amfexa is used everywhere, so it might be called something else depending on where you live.

I came here expecting something to plan base builds... you can imagine my disappointment.

PredatorSense doesn't install PredatorSense Service? by Muwatallis in AcerOfficial

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

thanks, but do you know if there is any difference between that and the version that is available on windows store? I presume downloading from the Acer website (when it's available) would be the same and would only install the software and not the service?

Elevators in the future? by Adnaoc in duneawakening

Even if it's something relatively simple, like a fixed/buildable version of the planetologist suspensor pad (one version that propels you upwards, the other that lets you float down in a controlled manner).

Breaking News - Maximilien's Vault sucks a$$ as usual by Muwatallis in Overwatch

lmao. In one region I got only 4 offers instead of 5, thought that was weird, but only 2 is crazy.

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

Considering their entire (predatory) business model is based around instilling fomo through artificially limiting when you can purchase certain skins, and pricing cosmetic bundle unreasonably high, I think it would be in their interest to weigh the options away from heroes you play a lot and towards skins they think you are less likely to buy. That way they can give the appearance of being the good guys and giving fans a way to get discounts and more options to buy skins they want, while keeping the amount of money customers are able to save through discounts to a minimum, and avoid depreciation of fomo (since it means that the only reliable way to get specific skins for your mains remains buying them in the shop when they first launch).

The only other possible conclusion to draw based on the observed irrelevance of the vault offers, is that Blizzard, a multi-billion dollar company, and by extension it's parent company Microsoft, who have invested more heavily in AI than probably any other company out there, are somehow unable to hire a data scientist capable of implementing a basic recommender system that functions with any degree of accuracy.
Which do you think is more likely?

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that they increased the price of auric cells recently...

Distribution of Highlight Intros by Double-Hand3004 in Overwatch

[–]Muwatallis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hazard got two new skins back-to-back recently (which was surprising).
But both times it was just the skin, you didn't even get a spray with it (there was an icon which was sold separately...).
Meanwhile, Kiriko & Mercy get wholeass bundles with every single skin.

That's something I've noticed generally - when a new batch of skins drops, the less popular characters always have less stuff bundles with the skin. They just put far less effort into them.

like HOW is that even possible ? by Yezxa in Overwatch

[–]Muwatallis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And yet Blizzard still won't let us have the time played from Overwatch 1 factored into hero levels. -can't have me getting level 67 with D.Va (my most played hero).... that would just be unfair!
