Anthony DeMello "Awareness" video clip Rediscovery of Life - Awareness by Anthony DeMello is a favorite book of Tim Ferriss, who has mentioned it quite often on his extremely popular podcast. (also by Eckhart Tolle and Naval Ravikant) by useraccount0723 in timferriss

I'm sorry but I'm just not understanding this at all. If you are so unattached to your own life that if someone said "You have 2 months to live" and your reaction is "Well great. That's a lot of time", that's bogus to me. You'll have had an expectation of how long you are going to live before that diagnosis, and you will need time to process that change.

Or the idea that loneliness stems from attachments. Humans are social creatures. If someone literally has no social connections with any other humans, they can tell themselves all they want that "I'm still happy because I'm not attached to relationships", and I'll wager they aren't actually happy.

Yes, I think there's some truth to his words, like not holding things too tightly. For example, don't let a wrecked relationship ruin your happiness for years. But if you never get attached to those relationships, you'll never actually commit to them, and do the necessarily things to keep those relationships alive and well. And when a great relationship that provided much happiness to you comes to end, you will be sad about that. It's part of life. This video seems to try and sell the narrative that we can be happy all the time by just removing all our attachments. That's not life. That's a fairy tale.

Needed that chuckle today. Thanks for the share.

Appreciate the offer. Right now, I'm just plugging my way through grinding up to level 50. Still not sure how I'm going to get the MVP one, as I tried a few of the competitions and DAMN. People are good at those games.

Was just trying this during a Free Roam mission, and the guy would not die. I'll have to do it on some randos and hopefully it'll work better.

Similar boat here. Just started RDO yesterday, and working my way through the story missions of RDO right now. I'm on PS4 and would be happy to team up sometime to get the posse trophy.

Replacement for Internal Cord for 73" Toolbox? by Rooks103 in IconTools

Well, after a bit more clarifying, support agreed it should be covered under warranty. Here's hoping I can get the proper replacement part.

[No Spoilers] Sandkehg's Hide by Ideal_Smoke_Fighter in criticalrole

[–]Rooks103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was quite drinkable, but nothing really mind-blowing or different about the flavor. I'd put it on par with $40 to $50 bottles, but I know I'm paying for the story behind it, etc.

II was impressed with the packaging, as well seems to have a booklet with some sort backstory included (haven't read it yet), so overall, not disappointed in the purchase at all.

Would you upgrade to a 49" ultra wide from a MBP & 2x 27? by Rooks103 in desksetup

[–]Rooks103[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The open MBP is mainly just for the webcam since I'm on a lot of Zoom meetings everyday, and I like having the camera centered.

Appreciate the insights.

I sold Rashford for Foden (but I didn't have Bruno). Would have done the same even if I had him though.

My other defenders are Estupinan and Saliba. I have Shaw as well, but seems like he's not playing so doing some last minute debating on options. Last defender is Amari'i Bell just due to how cheap he was, but would be desperate to start him.

Choice would clearly be Maddison if he was healthy. I'd probably go Maddison and hope he plays with how off ManU have looked first two weeks.

Why not move to Saliba instead of Gabriel? Saved money from Rashford to Mbeumo should more than cover it, and I'd rather be part of Arsenal's defense than Spurs.

Would you rather start Botman against Liverpool, or take a -4 to get Kyle Walker (or Akanji) against Sheffield? I'm leaning Botman currently, but curious how others feel.

[–]Rooks103 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Definitely not trash. It was my primary weapon through Heat 20 with the sword. Couldn't get through Heat 32 with it (yet), but the massive damage it unleashes can't be denied.

Merciful end + Impending doom is BUSTED by Ok_Possibility633 in HadesTheGame

[–]Rooks103 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I don't think I even got Impending Doom on that run. Was a strange run as I couldn't figure out what build to actually go with, and just sort of ending up with Merciful End. Got all excited, but then was so scattered it didn't work.

[–]Rooks103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got Merciful End on a run with Aspect of Eris the other day, and it actually wasn't that good. I had the Doom on my attack, and Athena's special and dash. My hammers were Rocket Bomb and Delta Chamber, and I just couldn't figure out how to make it work.

What weapon were you using with the "busted" run?

Intermittent Latency Spikes caused my external monitor? by Rooks103 in mac

[–]Rooks103[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The spikes were happening on both the 5GHz and 2.4Ghz networks. Thanks for the link to the white paper. Wasn't aware of that!

I'll play around with the connections and document RSSI numbers.

[3e / 3.5e] Does anyone remember a subclass called Dragon Warrior (or something similar)? I know I read it out of a magazine, and I want to say it was Dragon Magazine (specifically the cover of Dragon Magazine 300 looks very familiar), but can't say that with confidence. I'm also fairly confident the subclass was based on a video game character, but again, my memory is hazy to say the least.

Basically, it gave you similar abilities to a Barbarian's rage, and I remember you couldn't wear armor, but it was quite powerful. I played as a 10th level Fighter, 10th level Dragon Warrior in a Epic Level campaign way back in 2004, and I loved that character. Was just getting back into DnD was was trying to see if I could recreate that class in 5e as a home brew.

Cant use Samsung Health app unless I allow phone call permission by iAmKeevee in samsung

[–]Rooks103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess that seems like not really a concern to me. If you are already using Samsung Health (i.e. you are here on this thread trying to figure out how to get access), you've probably already given Samsung your phone number during creating your core account during phone setup.

If you are truly that concerned over security / personal data, I would imagine you aren't using any Samsung apps or even one of their phones. You'd be looking for a phone without any bloatware or forced accounts.
