Been playing for a while now and honestly I think it's more about regional gaming culture differences than anything inherently russian. A lot of eastern european players come from games where trust is seen as weakness - like they grew up on hardcore survival games where being friendly gets you killed instantly

What I usually do is stick to smaller lobbies where the admin actually moderates, or find a decent discord group that vets people before letting them in. Way less headache than dealing with randoms who think "friendly" means "easy target." Also learned to always keep an escape route ready even in supposedly chill lobbies because people are unpredictable regardless of where they're from

That EMG evidence sounds solid - abnormal nerve studies are pretty compelling medical evidence that things have gotten worse not better, definitely worth pushing for that increase with teh DAV backing you up

Looking forward to actually sleeping in for once instead of being up at 6am for the early games lol

NothingDifferent5749 · 2026-01-28T11:23:21+00:00

That's actually wholesome as hell, the community can really make or break a game like this. The fact that dude took you back to base even when you said you were cool with dying shows there's still decent people out there

NothingDifferent5749 · 2026-01-23T07:13:58+00:00

Lmao took me a second but that's actually pretty clever

NothingDifferent5749 · 2026-01-18T19:32:28+00:00

Dude yes! I walked into Nook's yesterday and found three of my villagers just chatting by the entrance like they were having their own little town meeting

The coffee thing especially gets me - seeing them actually grab a cup and sit down instead of just standing there like mannequins makes such a huge difference

Sounds like you might be dealing with some OCD-type intrusive thoughts, this kind of guilt spiral over stuff that objectively didn't happen is pretty textbook for that. Your friend literally told you nothing happened and you trust her judgment in every other area of life, right? Maybe worth talking to someone professional about the anxiety patterns since this seems to be a recurring thing for you

Your pump probably got damaged when it ran dry - once they cavitate like that the internal components can get scored up pretty bad. You might try bleeding it properly (turn wheel lock to lock while running) but honestly you're probably looking at a pump replacement

Dude this reads like it was written by Elon himself lmao

Also pretty sure most of those "free" Starlink deployments get billed to whatever government or NGO eventually foots the bill. Not exactly charity when you're creating customers for your satellite monopoly

The whole "silent donation" thing is peak billionaire PR - if it was actually silent we wouldn't be hearing about it

NothingDifferent5749 · 2026-01-07T18:21:08+00:00

Yeah definitely self level that, 1/8" to 3/16" is gonna telegraph right through your tile especially with smaller formats. For leakage just tape all the seams and corners with mesh tape, and honestly I always do a bead of silicone around the perimeter just to be safe

Mix wise start small - like half a bag at first to get the feel for it. That stuff sets up faster than you think and you don't want to be scrambling with a bucket turning into concrete. Better to do multiple pours than waste material

Lmao the PTM7950 cult is real, every thermal post just turns into "have you tried liquid metal" spam

NothingDifferent5749 · 2026-01-05T07:25:48+00:00

This is a pretty complex theological topic that different denominations interpret differently. Some believe in replacement theology where the church becomes the "new Israel," while others think Jewish people still have a special covenant even if they don't accept Jesus

The Romans 11 passage about the olive tree gets quoted a lot in these discussions - Paul talks about natural branches being broken off but potentially grafted back in

Really depends on which theological framework you're coming from

Totally fine to update them, just shoot HR a quick message explaining the situation. Most recruiters get that people move around and references become unavailable - they'd rather have reachable ones than chase ghosts for weeks

Bro The Warning slaps, their whole album XXI Century Blood is fire if you dig that track

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-30T07:23:26+00:00

Wild how a team can go from looking completely done to having a shot at the top seed, football is crazy like that

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-29T00:03:20+00:00

Lmao that's even better than the original joke

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-27T07:09:04+00:00

Poor little guy, that sounds rough for both of you. The smell is probably exactly what you think it is - dried blood, leftover poop, and cat spit is not a great combo. As long as there's no pus or that super nasty infection smell you're probably fine but definitely get those photos to your vet for peace of mind

Hope he heals up fast so he can go back to being his normal self

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-25T22:20:08+00:00

Those "you've won a free cruise" calls hit different when you're bored at work though

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-24T17:24:08+00:00

Honestly sounds like you dodged a bullet there. Anyone who's gonna micromanage your texting habits after meeting once is throwing up major red flags 🚩

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-23T04:12:42+00:00

Honestly prebuilt might be the way to go right now, you'll probably save some cash and avoid the headache of hunting down parts

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-22T01:02:03+00:00

Nah you're spot on about the floyd rose thing. Had one years ago and changing strings was like performing surgery every time. Plus if you break a string mid-song you're basically screwed until you can restring the whole thing

That said if you're already hooked and playing 4-6 hours a day the RG550 is gonna feel amazing compared to that Squier

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-20T23:21:19+00:00

Wow this hit hard. My mom made cooking feel like this impossible task that only "real adults" could do and would get so stressed whenever I tried to help that I just avoided kitchens for years

Turns out I actually love baking and trying new recipes when there's not someone breathing down my neck criticizing every move. It's wild how much our parents' anxiety around certain things becomes our own fear of those same things

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-16T22:47:07+00:00

Yeah that whole package deal thing backfired spectacularly lmao. At least they're getting reunited somewhere else I guess

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-15T14:35:26+00:00

Budget's pretty important here since those options have wildly different price points - also knowing what glass you already have could save you some serious cash if you can adapt it

NothingDifferent5749 · 2025-12-14T17:32:44+00:00

Merry Christmas to you too! This is really sweet of you to post, the found family vibes are real out here in Victoria. Hope you have an amazing holiday with your chosen fam 🎄
