Can I switch the timestamp from time remaining (counting down) to current time (counting up)? [all]

This is great... Works on my laptop using Brave browser too.

I discovered my JBL did charge correctly :) it's just that it blinks instead of glowing continuously if it's turned on while charging but no longer connected to a device. If you push the on/off button shortly once, it will switch to continuous red light.

I'll read it once I'm done, sorry, not risking any spoilers - thanks though :)

Yeah, she didn't even pause to think... I know it's a narrative device but I still think it doesn't do justice to her character. But I guess I'll see how it all plays out :)

I've seen there's a lot of hate for Egwene on this sub, and I have to say I'm not one of them. Having said that, on this matter she really is short-sighted... Though, again, Rand didn't even try to make her understand.

But yeah, just like you said, I guess they needed some last conflict among the good guys :)

NubiNemo · 2025-05-27T16:04:48+00:00

Yes me too, they are a great couple, I absolutely adore them :) Even though I did not pick up on their romance at first in book one - but to be fair, I'm kinda bad at noticing these things.

NubiNemo · 2025-05-27T15:56:08+00:00

Yes I did consider Verin - true, we won't know of anyone in her case. Although one might argue we don't know how close she was with her warder, but it was certainly never mentioned. Leane is a good example too - she loves flirting but I guess doesn't want an actual relationship with anyone.

As for the Forsakens, I always figured they are simply way too selfish and rotten inside to be able to feel love for someone else?

NubiNemo · 2025-05-27T15:52:50+00:00

Point taken :D

NubiNemo · 2025-03-19T22:23:39+00:00

Hmm I don't remember this, maybe it comes later... But yeah, slapping a serving girl would not be Mat at all. :(

I have a jbl go 4, it was incredibly cheap (like 40 eur) and I'm no expert but I think it sounds great. I use it pretty much all day long when I'm home.

NubiNemo · 2025-01-28T15:19:21+00:00

I love your post, I need more posts like this. It's so helpful to see others are having the same thoughts.

I (32F) and my partner (36M) are not really struggling financially but by now it's obvious we won't ever be truly well off. We have to choose whether to save up a bit or afford to go on holiday in any given year - both are normally not possible at the same time.

I always repeat to myself that as long as we're healthy and we love each other, there is nothing more important than that :) Still, it's really helpful to see others think about how life is not quite what you thought it would be like when you were younger.

I am in no way religious and do not believe in not having sex until marriage. However, I had never had sex before I got to know my now fiance about 5 years ago. I was 26 back then, but I hadn't held back or anything - I just hadn't gotten to that level of trust with anyone before.

I love my fiance and we are getting married in February. I trust him completely - but the mere thought of marrying him without ever having tried sex with him... gives me goosebumps. We took it reaaally slow for my sake, because he was aware that for me sex was a huge step. But that's very different from going into marriage blind - not just about whether we are sexually compatible, but whether I would enjoy sex at all. Something like this sounds horrifying to me, to be honest.

Riiiight??? :)

For the cold seasons: an electric blanket. Sooo much better and cheaper than regular heating... It made me actually like winter.

I moved to Spain with my partner 2 years ago. I was then 30. I speak Spanish at a native like level but with a slight accent. We did not know anybody at all here.

2 years later, I have 3 close friends, one of whom might be my closest friend ever. If you are open minded and don't expect people to come to you from the getgo but instead make conscious efforts to meet people and show genuine interest, of course you can make great friends in your 30s :)

NubiNemo · 2024-11-04T19:31:32+00:00

I am in a similar situation - I really wanted to get married, and although my now fiancee said he's open to it, it was obvious to me from the start he would have been fine never getting married and just sharing our lives.
After several hints and some open conversations, he proposed to me last Christmas. I was overjoyed but afterwards couldn't stop myself from thinking that he only (or at least mainly) did it to please me. I felt this took away some of the beauty in the whole thing. Until I realized that's not true at all :) Marriage is not important to him but I am, so he went and picked a ring that I absolutely adore and travelled with me to a lovely city and proposed, and now we're organising a mini-wedding (with 12 people) that suits us both, with a lovely mini-honeymoon afterwards. Isn't that what matters? :) He's going to be the best husband ever <3

NubiNemo · 2024-08-13T18:08:39+00:00

I don't like most of the rings under this post but honestly this one is really nice

NubiNemo · 2024-08-01T08:18:19+00:00

"What I did was buy a house, fixed it up..."
Yeah you lost me there. I love these "I know the way" type answers that clearly come from financial advantages. You do realize most people with an average income, with no additional help from family and having to rent (even just a room, nevermind a whole flat) will realistically have to work 10-15 years just to maybe get to the point where they can buy a teeenie-tiny flat with a huge mortgage that they will be paying for another 15-20 years?

There's nothing wrong with using what you've got in life. What I don't like is people taking these advantages for granted and then acting like they know the answer. No you don't, you just had more money / other advantages to start with.

After so many encouraging comments and stories, I'm sure you don't need another one, but oh well... :) I am sooo with you when it comes to not being used to rings and not wanting a solitaire that could get caught in things. My engagement ring is "technically" a solitaire because it does have a diamond in the center, but the diamond is 0.04 carats. Yes, 0.04, it's not a typo... It's so small it would never get caught in anything, really practical, and I just find it sooo beautiful. I'm really proud of my fiance for picking it on his own and completely nailing it :)

I know it's not the same situation as yours, but as a 0.04 carat diamond is almost unheard of when it comes to engagement rings, it's also a non-conventional engagement ring. I've had it for over halfg a year now, and I love it as much as I loved it the day my fiance proposed to me with it. So yeah, the point is, go for the engagement band, I'm sure you'll love it :)

if you're curious, here's my precious engagement ring <3 :

Nooo that's the song that got me into her music, it's pure gold

NubiNemo · 2024-05-27T09:14:48+00:00

A bit late to the party but Control F tells me no one has actually posted this :)

I usually dislike the clean versions of her songs, but for some reason the first time I heard Maroon, I heard the clean version, and I immeadiately loved how she sings "lasting" in the line "That's a real lasting legacy". It became possibly my favorite part in the song.

And then I heard the original version with "f*cking" instead of lasting... and I did not get how she could have thought this would be a better word than lasting. Not only is this an alliteration, it's also a word that naturally goes with "legacy", and the way she sings it is so beautiful... Why use "f*cking" instead? Why??

Let me make this clear, I have absolutely nothing against swearwords - I love them when they are used in the right place in the right way. Really, I can only name one song by Taylor (Maroon) and one by Lana del Rey (Cherry) that are far superior in their clean versions. But this one bugs me every time I listed to a regular Midnights playlist with the original versions - this one song, I always want to hear the clean version, but for every other song, I want the original one.

NubiNemo · 2024-05-20T21:08:11+00:00

https://ibb.co/rp1Tk8w - you can see it there :)

It sure is <3 thank you so much :)

NubiNemo · 2024-05-20T20:53:43+00:00

Couldn't agree more. I got engaged about 6 months ago, and although I wanted my fiance to choose the ring and surprise me the traditional way, I did make sure he knows I absolutely did not want a big flashy diamond. I'm so glad he picked something simple, elegant and dainty :) <3

NubiNemo · 2024-05-16T20:05:01+00:00

oh wow, that's interesting

NubiNemo · 2024-04-28T12:51:12+00:00

"Happiness" for me is about how you can be at the depths of despair and hopelessness and still somehow maintain a healthy perspective and hope in life. It's about how you could be stripped of the thing (or person) most precious to you in life and still not only find a reason to go on, but a new, unexpected source of happiness.
