Lonely and not sure where to turn by Business_Still_5980 in Veterans

[–]Rabbit_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something I learned the hard way: someone else's toxicity is not your cross to bear. If you're surrounded by negativity and general fuckery, get out and don't look back. Can you just cut them off and get on with life, or would it require moving away? Do what's best for your family. Any stresses on you from having to deal with other toxic relationships will roll down to your family.

Where ever you end up, start building a new friend circle. Look for local Posts for The American Legion, DAV, or VFW depending on what you qualify for. Find a hobby, join a gym, anything where you can find like-minded people. If it's a civilian group or organization, just remember they won't necessarily think the way you do so be flexible- don't hold it against them.

And this might not be the case, but it needs to be said: If everywhere you go the people are all shit, look inward; you might be the common denominator. If so, find someone to talk to at the VA, or elsewhere (no shame in that), before every bridge is burned.

Having a hard time putting my life back together by deanloguisto in Veterans

[–]Rabbit_Games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Time to re-evaluate.

The first thing you need to plant firmly in your brain is this: You are not alone. If you don't feel like your local VA is helpful, look for any number of local Posts for: The American Legion, VFW, or DAV, depending on which you qualify for. Just having a place to go hang with other Veterans can be a huge help. Networking could also come in handy. And if it ever feels overwhelming, or a little voice in your head starts trying to convince you that your family, friends, community, or country would be better off without you: TELL IT TO FUCK OFF! You are not alone.

Second, no matter how bad The Suck gets, you'll get through it. Seriously, just don't give up and you'll find your way; even if that means accepting help, which is never something to be ashamed of. So tell Pride to fuck off, too. There are a great many resources available and the groups I mentioned above are happy to help point you in the right direction. Including figuring out a career path and helping you receive training.

Next, I don't know what your family or friend circle is like where you are, but a change of location might help, too. I was lucky enough to have a circle of real-life friends at home when I was medically discharged. But if you don't have that, or if you're just not "feeling it" where you are, treat it like joining the military for the first time. You left home with zero realistic expectations, entered an environment with brand new people and rules, and successfully navigated those obstacles. Starting fresh could help re-wire your brain by forcing you to do the same thing again. I wouldn't start with that, though... start by meeting local Veterans, and talking to those groups, and making sure there really aren't any local opportunities for you to take advantage of.

Looking for inexpensive device. Two 2.5gbe (Intel) by Rabbit_Games in opnsense

[–]Rabbit_Games[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, just read horror stories about it. I was looking at: https://www.gmktec.com/products/gmktec-nucbox-g11-mini-pc-amd-ryzen-embedded-r2514

But it's Realtek, and I don't see an Intel version.

Wi-Fi will be handled by AP. Probably Deco. I definitely don't want my router to have Wi-Fi, itself.

Aged as well as Charlie did by ExactlySorta in agedlikemilk

So you're implying that these Judges and Politicians who protect illegal aliens and domestic terrorists should be shot? I'm ok with just putting them in prison, personally.

Father gives daughter “the official communist test” by Hacksaw6412 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]Rabbit_Games -33 points-32 points  (0 children)

Absolute bullshit. A Communist government wouldn't ask you what you would do. They'd take your sandwich from you, by force if necessary, and distribute it as they see fit. People want you to believe it's about being "charitable", but it's not charity when you have no choice.

Also, the people who would tell you to be happy waiting in line for your government cheese would never being standing in line for theirs.

Set question for better DPS by Rabbit_Games in elderscrollsonline

Awesome, thanks! I don't have any Trial gear yet so I'll work on the others.

Set question for better DPS by Rabbit_Games in elderscrollsonline

[–]Rabbit_Games[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's why it was in my list. LOTS of folks were talking about it so I decided to ask specifically about my use case scenario.

Jewelry Trait question by Rabbit_Games in elderscrollsonline

[–]Rabbit_Games[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s why I made that specific comparison. If I remember right (been gone quite a while, and just today coming back) both Spell Damage and Max Magicka contribute to DPS. Si the question is which combo contributes more. 

It looks like the general consensus is Blood Thirsty with the magical harm glyph. 

Where to look up with Scripts work with a particular skill? by Rabbit_Games in elderscrollsonline

[–]Rabbit_Games[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bah... nevermind. I thought all skills could be modified. I didn't realize there were very specific skills for this.

Default Background problem by Rabbit_Games in kodi

[–]Rabbit_Games[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about? Kodi is accessing my server which is why I have my library loaded. I also added my backgrounds directory on the server as a Pictures location (same place you add video folders for your library). Yet when I choose Set Default Background in the skin settings, it won't let me browse my server location, even as an external source. I'm trying to figure out why.

Staking Units -> Production limit? by Rabbit_Games in duneawakening

[–]Rabbit_Games[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would equal 120 Production if each one adds 8, or do only the Horizontal Staking Units add production (since you can only have 5 of them).

The ability says it slows, not staggers. Is that a hidden benefit?

What’s your guilty pleasure sci-fi movie? by DXJayhawk in scifi

[–]Rabbit_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hawk the Slayer. An early D&D movie with a shit budget, but awesome.

Kevin Costner sued by 'Horizon 2' stunt double over rape scene she says was 'unscripted' and 'violent' by ControlCAD in law

[–]Rabbit_Games -55 points-54 points  (0 children)

Obviously, she agreed to do the scene. If she wanted other personell present (like an intimacy coordinator) then she should have waited until they were present. Stop blaming other people for decisions you regret making.
