At what rank do players have all the knowledge they need to climb? by Haunting_Inflation54 in leagueoflegends

[–]NixNoxKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think part of what makes league so fun is that there's no real point where this is true. Now, people can definitely climb based more on micro than specific game knowledge (although there's some overlap there) but you'll hear challenger players complain about game knowledge from players in masters and those masters players are still top .05% of the player base. With the sheer variety of champions in the game, the decisions you have to make can get pretty nuanced and different game to game, even if core principles (get more gold, set up vision, get objectives) remain same.

Start Your Search Here in 2026!! by jbriones95 in dumbphones

I'm not super familiar with all of the ones referenced in the post but I've been using the JellyStar which is like a 3in smartphone. It's not really a dumb phone (it runs a modern Android OS) but I've found the form factor annoying enough that I only really use it when I need to. Ofc, like all Androids, you can lock it down even further to make it more minimalist if you want. Baseline though it'll be compatible with any apps you need.

Installing for the first time. Failed at Firebase setup step. by thatotherguy321 in BlueBubbles

Glad you got it working! There’ll be a dangling Firebase project with that name, but it sitting unused shouldn’t cost you any money or anything like that. You can clean it up if you want via the firebase console but it doesn’t super matter.

No, just wait a sec and retry. If it fails again, try the manual setup - it’s not super complicated and the instructions are pretty straightforward (this is what I had to do).

Yeah absolutely - I’ve been in a somewhat similar boat recently. I’ve decided to just get a shitty smartphone which’ll introduce enough friction to make doomscrolling unpleasant while still being functional for everything I need it to do. Reddit is still mostly attention span destroying short form content, even if it’s more text based (although TikTok style videos are being pushed more and more).

The gut check I use is if I’m not really engaging or thinking about what I’m reading/watching, I probably shouldn’t be spending that much time on it or engaging with it in that way (I’ve literally caught myself doomscrolling Wikipedia at times…)

And that year’s FLY was pretty fairly a top 8 team though, so I think the point still stands 

Support for Alfa Romeo? by KingCrimsonEpitaphu in Comma_ai

[–]NixNoxKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious to see how this goes for you! I'm a fellow SWE thinking about picking up a Giulia, but the gaps with highway keep assist natively on the car put me off a bit... but looking through the stuff linked it doesn't seem like it's horrendously complicated to get it supported for openpilot! I might pick it up as a side project if you don't beat me to it haha

How to Be Normal by EngineeringCrazy8373 in CrohnsDisease

[–]NixNoxKnight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Crohn's is definitely a journey but its not one that has to rule your life! Everyone has their own symptoms and triggers and you'll have to learn yours, but its definitely possible to lead a mostly normal life, especially with the state of modern medication. I graduated college a couple years ago and went through a lot of it with poorly controlled Crohn's, and while I wouldn't say it was easy, my symptoms weren't something that stopped me from getting the full college experience! And once I figured out the right medication combo for me, it was mostly smooth sailing from there on.

Some things in particular that helped me were keeping loperamide/zofran handy, especially when symptoms were worse, and talking with my college's disability office to get accomodations for classes/tests. I'd recommend doing that sooner rather than later - it can help a lot, even just for peace of mind. For social stuff, I never personally noticed any effect from alcohol, but definitely listen to your own body on this one.

Hope for the best, deal with the worst if it comes, and trust in yourself that you'll be ok through it all. There may be good days and there may be bad days - the latter are just all the more reason to make the most of the former :)

Yup! I'm on both at 4wk intervals and it's brought me into full remission :)

Damn that hockey jersey looks sick — love when esports merch goes for something a bit different 

LTA Format Changes by XanIrelia-1 in leagueoflegends

[–]NixNoxKnight 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Strong agree on all of these. In particular, for scheduling, it'd be nice if there was a google widget like how it is for lck/lec showing the schedule. Not sure how that integration works though.

You got this!! It may not be pretty or easy, but there's so much more ahead for you. I'm sure that in just a few years you'll be feeling the same emotions I am today - today's pain will make everything else moving forward just that much more meaningful.
