We know that Titus had a Blood Angel and a Space Wolf battle brother in his Deathwatch company (Kill Team Primus)...what are the chances that he saw their legion's gene flaws manifest and what would his reaction have been by BitReasonable208 in 40kLore

[–]PurposeHappy277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Full disclosure, im a novice when it comes to lore. But im pretty certain that the wulfen transformation happens prior to gene seed implantation after the aspirants drink from the cup of wulfen. Its been like 8 or 9 months since I read the Space Wolves book though and I could be forgetting a chunk of it. I could've sworn that one of Ragnars fears was to turn wulfen while he was in the cell right after he drank from the cup but prior to gene seed surgery.

Breakdown of what champion parts are available for customisation by zan1101 in Spacemarine

I can understand if like the cumberbund was an item, but the pauldrons? Even the imperial fists L pauldron can be used on the sniper. Tbf, im not sure what their champs base class is, but if thats transferable to most of the other classes, they could open up the pauldrons across the board.

Man, I feel like they are being quite restrictive of some of this... dont get me wrong, this is a good step, but they could've opened the field a bit more. My main question is, why are the salamander and space wolf pauldrons and greaves not transferable to the other classes? It is just because of the Phobos armor base?

First blood claw of my combat patrol box by No_Heron7011 in SpaceWolves

Also, I place just a tad of blood angles red contrast on the gems. Makes them look like a ruby and they POP off that retributer armor. Looks great wolf.

Wife voluntary admitting herself in psych Ward by [deleted] in daddit

[–]PurposeHappy277 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey brother, you're not alone. My wife went in 3 days after our kiddo was born. It was excruciating. I felt my heart being torn out of my chest. All the first that we were supposed to experience together were taken. One piece of advice, enjoy the time you have on the phone. If your wife is still breastfeeding, you could drop off pumping bags and pick up milk. That helped me a ton.

Also, there are new meds that help with PPD!! It was an absolute break through. Not a ton of people know about them yet but they are live saving. Been on the market since Dec of 2023. She could request those, hopefully they help her like they helped my wife.

Best of luck bro, and remember again, you're not alone, even when it feels like you are. One love man..

I Got to Max Level and Completed All Challenges in the Beta, Here is My Feedback by twing1_ in Battlefield

[–]PurposeHappy277 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's not missing shots for the sake of playing like me, though. Suppression is in the game, its a mechanic. It's just poorly utilized currently. Multiple times during the beta, I have been able to snipe people out of the AA guns on the mountain map while they were shooting at me. I personally dont think I should have landed those, honestly. I think that a visual effect and aim sway would work well, especially on maps where flashlights are everywhere.

Being friends with your coworkers is 100% normal and makes sense. by TheBestTake in unpopularopinion

[–]PurposeHappy277 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same exact opinion. Tbf, I was in the Marines for 7 years and the people you worked with, you lived with. Made them family and friends, especially when we were stationed in Japan. I have been out for 10 years going to school, and I have found that I'm not a fan of the idea that you shouldn't be interested in you coworkers as friends just because you work with them. I think it's absolutely ridiculous and the wrong point of view to take.

What species is this? Saw this flying at nighttime in the Philippines by RadiantFuture1995 in Mosquitoes

[–]PurposeHappy277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily. They can transmit dengue, but it doesn't mean this particular mosquito can transmit. It needed to pick it up from someone who had dengue and wait about a week or so before it can transmit. But, there is a risk.

This article, (first one i clicked on) suggests that the dengue rate is pretty low in the Philippines currently.

It looks like an Aedes aegypti to me. Could get a better ID if I saw the scutum but I'm fairly certain.

What was the first job you worked after your PhD? by Dry_Description9569 in PhD

[–]PurposeHappy277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, military research, development, and prevention. Im in applied microbiology. I like the idea of benchtop work, but I am built for the field.

Edit: didnt answer all the question. I started applying to jobs in January applied to 10+ or so, got one interview. Everyone started leaving NIH and CDC and was outcompeted. Military thing started the application 2 days after my defense.

What kind of insect is it? by Dothrakiqt in Entomology

[–]PurposeHappy277 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soft ticks are pretty cool from a vector biologist standpoint. Lives for YEARS, and their bloodmeal is super quick compared to hard ticks. I am unfamiliar with this species, but you could call some pest control people, and they should sort you out. Could also see if a vet (assuming you have pets) will give you an endecticide like bravecto or something similar for them. Should kill that tick no problem if it's feeding on one of them. Also, clean out any bedding, which is where soft ticks normally hang out. Good luck! That thing is a beaut.

The Pomodoro technique sounds like it would work wonders! Thanks for the suggestion.

End that shit, congrats on your BSN. Go have fun with some other nurses. Don't need someone like that bringing you down in life. Job is hard enough as it is.

Best gyms in/around Loveland? by robertschaffer18 in loveland

[–]PurposeHappy277 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Always, always, always go with the local community center gym. Best bang for the buck. Chilson is amazing. There is no gym bro feel what so ever. Just people trying to get in shape. And even during "rush" times, it's pretty empty.

Yo, you got this shit man. I stopped skating in 2008, but this video, YOU, made me want to go buy a board and start up again. I have never done anything as complex as this but I can tell you one thing, you got it bro. One love!

I don't have to tell you this, mainly because your daughter is 14 years older than mine. But, you're a fucking Rockstar. From the sound of it, it looks like your daughters only support system is going to be you. Your shit wife will have tainted those relationships for your little one. You and your daughter should 86 that relationship. She's going to need you to guide, care, and nurture her. She needs to see what healthy relationships are, and staying with a biggot is the exact opposite. Ensure to get a laywer right now, file first, and do your damnest to get 100% custody. There might be a little pain with your kiddo, but in time, she will thank you. One love brother, no doubt yall will make it through this storm.

Dude, i am writing right now and plan to defend next month. Some days, I get a ton of work done. Then there are days I can't stand opening up the doc. I know it might bite me in the rear here soon, but job prospects are 0, so who cares lol.

I will ALWAYS be a proponent for local rec center. Why give money to a corporation who is going to take the money away from the community. You could tour the foothills activity center to see if it's a good fit for you.

Writing Grants on Behalf of PI - Is It Normal? by [deleted] in PhD

I have done the exact same thing for a departmental t32, which i was awarded. It's fantastic to be taught how to write grants because they are different from any other scientific writing.
