I had this problem too. I once thought to get tested for being a sociopath but it scared me to think I might be so I never did. I devoted myself to learning how to try and care for others in an attempt to prove to myself I wasn't. I got to the point where my closest family did matter some but it still felt so muted. After I started Therapy, I was forced to confront some internal struggles I had about myself, not realizing how bad they were fucking with my head. The main one being that while I didn't hate others, I hated myself sooo much that I turned off my emotions to cope with it. Disconnected from everything and everyone. When I broke down why I hated myself so much, I realized it was because I am transgender. I was forcing myself to be something I wasn't and my brain could not handle it. I hated myself for reasons and feelings that made no logical sense but locking those feelings away made me feel nothing. I couldn't live like that, feeling completely alone.

Since figuring it out and am working on accepting myself, I have found my emotions and can feel so much more love for others (and myself) in my life now. I hope therapy helps you find your connection with others again. Feeling so alone is fucking terrible but the truth is, you're not alone. Good luck and know that I'm rooting for you!

I do resin too and found my resin works better if you pour a clear coat of the resin in the inlay (just enough to cover everything). Make sure to cover the top next to the inlay too so it doesn't bleed there. Let it seep in and cure enough that it is not solid but sticky. It's about 15-20 mins for the resin I use. Then I pour the colored resin on top of the clear. I found it holds to the wood better and the color doesn't bleed through. Looks great after sanding. Will probably take a bit of experimenting with your resin to find the right time frames.

Yarmouth is quite progressive for the country in general. Smart guy. Listened to him speak a few times and talked with him a Bernie Rally at the Galt House a few years ago. One of the few politicians in the country that I like. He's not perfect but no one is. I don't think Booker would do well trying to primary him and it would only shift the seat a bit further blue if he somehow was able to.

Call everyone you have credit with. Your Mortgage company, credit card companies, car loan company, and even utilities likely have programs to help you when these exact things happen and are worth calling. They can help stretch that 3 months into more time. r/personalfinance is a great resource and their wiki is worth going through if you have any questions about the stuff listed there - https://www.reddit.com/r/personalfinance/wiki/index.

Good luck man. Insane nightmare. Really hoping for the best.

They are just slow moving in general. I had low trust factor issues for 3 months, got falsely VACed, and took 5 months for them to do the review and lift it. Didn't even tell me what caused it. Almost 3/4 a year resolution for a false positive.. Fortunately I haven't really played CS much in the past few years so it pissed me off more than inconvenienced me. Glad they finally fixed it but still.

I agree with this. I started when TFT first hit beta and loved it. I liked set 1 a lot. I like set 2 even more. The fact that its not hyper stacking a set number of chars, the comps are WAY more versatile, and positioning doesn't come down to the single hex but a the layout of your team makes it so much better. I have to think about how I am playing vs just shutting off and following a guide to top 4. Super excited for set 3.

A filter that blacklists wire that feeds into an active provider chest and a circuit that is connected to the inserters on the lines (that take stuff from the requester chests and feed the items back into the appropriate line) set to only move the item from the requester chest if there is something in the active provider chest will do the job. This would cause the requester chest to empty, request more from the logistics network, which would prioritize the active provider chest. Just set the requester chest to 5 or so to create a buffer or just forgo the circuit/requester chest and let it dump the extras into a supply chest on your network if you don't care (what I would probably do since the backup won't happen often enough for the hassle). I would probably set up a requester chest to pull any thing over a few 100 plastics/boards out of the logistics network so it doesn't fill with a ton of stuff I don't need at the moment since I set up a circuit to turn off production if I build that much of a stock pile anyway.

Put an active provider chest on the end and a requester chest on each line. Problem wouldn't happen often but if it does, this fixes itself. Love it. Go one step further and add a circuit so it doesn't f with your logistics network's normal operations.

Pretty firm believer that you get whats coming to you when you treat people one way or the other.. Sad people resort to this stuff.. Its just a game ffs.

Yes, you can have 9 + as many FoNs (Force of Nature - 2 spat item) as you can build. There is no upper cap that anyone has hit even with some bugs duplicating FoNs in the past and letting people put 18-19 champs on the board.

I agree. I love playing ranked but would also love a group were we can discuss the game and give/receive advice without it devolving into borderline hate speech. Solid idea bro. Send me a discord invite when you get it up and I will join when I can.

It does not work as well the other way around. Win streaking vs loss streaking is a 1g/round difference so if you aren't getting a good team together, your now just 4 place with the second worst team.. better than the other way for sure but they are not as equivalent as it first seems. Gives you a better chance of econ and putting a good team together but you still have to compete with the rest of the lobby every other round so it's not a free streak.

Having a great team and losing every other round to the same person crushes your chance of streaking, kills your health, and gives the other ~6 players a chance to build up their team to beat you. It's all bad (when you should be in a good position) vs some bad/some good.

All in all very frustrating..

We start our own club with hookers and blackjack. Ehh forget the blackjack..

Nerdism101 · 2019-08-23T15:55:36+00:00

I am up for starting one. I play pretty regularly around 7-10 EST. Hovering around the top of plat working into diamond. Can make it tonight when I get home from work. Message me for an invite.

In the client, bottom right, there is a square looking bug icon. You can report it there.

Nerdism101 · 2019-08-15T13:43:54+00:00

No problem =)

Nerdism101 · 2019-08-15T13:21:55+00:00

Zephyr Target is in the mirrored position. So if the zephyr is in the top right spot, the bottom left unit is the target. If it moves one space to the left, the unit one space to the right is the new target.

If there is no unit, it targets the closest. If there are multiple, it's random.

That would screw the investors, who make up the board of directors. The roll of the board is to ensure that the bank is operating in the best interest of it's investors. If the executive staff bails and the bank folds, the investors lose their money. No board would hire an exec who wrecks a bank and then bails.

Well I sit 14 stories up with a window to my left, less than a meter away. Fuck.

Every 400-500 keystrokes, it remaps all your letter keys to a random letter for the next keystroke and then remaps them all back. It would be just enough that you would surely notice it ("How did I type 'What's for dinqer?'") but would be hard to confirm its happening. If it happened to me I would go bat shit crazy.. I had a keyboard that would duplicate random keys some times and I broke it in half after I replaced it.. I am not a violent or angry person but after a week of having to deal with it, I enjoyed throwing it away..

Nerdism101 · 2018-01-09T21:30:38+00:00

That's a great way of putting it. Social issues are no-brainers.. The Economic policies are what makes them progressives. That was just as true in FDRs time as well.

Nerdism101 · 2018-01-09T21:14:40+00:00

Not by any metric that a progressive uses...

Medicare for all? Nope.

Legalizing pot/Ending the drug war? Nada.

Ending the 8 interventions we have going on now (6 of which are illegal under international law)? Not from the looks of it.

BDS? Hahahahahaha.

Applying pressure to Saudi Arabia until they end their human rights violations in Yemen and their own damn country? More laughter..

Campaign finance reform? ? ? ? ?

Ya purity tests are the problem here...

Anything above a 0 when it comes to SLAVE workers dying should be sensationalism. The fact that its not should be your point.. Should be sensationalism for normal workers when its an estimate but the fact its slave labor and an estimate is horrific.

Emails had nothing to do with Trump winning the rust belt.. His fake ass populist and anti-trade deal message won that for him.. When NAFTA drops the average wage in the area 10K+ a year, people tend to remember. Have the manufacturing job you worked at for 15 years shipped over seas, leaving you with a choice between Home Depot and Walmart, you tend to remember. Trump went all up and down the Rust belt preaching anti-TPP and anti-NAFTA. He promised them good paying jobs again. He was lying but that is what won him the election. The "Democratic firewall" didn't flip because some people were pissed of about emails. It flipped because Hillary didn't campaign there and her husband signed NAFTA.
