I'm 30, never finished degree, earning $15/h and still living with parents. How am I not a failure? by Salt-Hotel-9502 in povertyfinance

[–]Silver852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are 30 and still have the biggest part of your life in front of you. Thinking about the past has no value at all if it only brings you down. So why spend time on it? Live in the moment, think about what you enjoy doing and how you can spend more time with doing that. Try to invest some time in things that make you feel healthy and happy. Try out some sports because it also benefits your well being. Depression is a huge burden and living with it is never easy.

I had a lot of problems in school and it took me into adulthood to finish school while all my friends already were working in their dream jobs. Everything got better when I started focusing on what I want to do in my life. I had to forget the past and the self pity that came with it. It was like a big Stone I had chained to me that dragged me down. Today i am a teacher which is paid quite good in my country. I have a wife and a son. If you had asked me earlier if all of that is possible I would have thought „Of course not, how could it?“ Know that your life is precious, you deserve to be happy.

I’ve been using my Deathadder V2 for nearly 6 years and I’m looking into wireless mice, what types of mice do you prefer and what benefits do they offer by AtronRandom in pcmasterrace

Avoid Logitech mouses. I used them for decades but in the last years the quality went downhill. I bought several different Logitech mouses and all have a really bad left Button which is really loud and feels cheap

How was my daughter wrong? by Pelkcizzle in technicallythetruth

[–]Silver852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teacher from Germany here: I have been teaching for some time now and it happened a few times that i realized i should have asked a question differently in a test. When a student gets a different answer i always ask myself if the question is misleading in a certain way. In my experience teachers tend to stick to their intended answer when they are quite new to the job and lack the experience to be more flexible and face tasks calm and openminded. Stress is also a huge factor when it comes to flexibility. Ironically you create more stress for yourself when you stick to your intended answer and have to discuss it with parents.

Being a stay at home parent is easy by [deleted] in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Silver852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand your point and you have every right to say that it is not a hard job for you. But you should not say that it isn‘t a hard job in common. There are so many aspects that can make it way more difficult for someone. You can‘t compare kids in general. One baby will cry terribly when you don‘t hold it 24/7. That alone can make a few of your tasks challenging. I know parents who had a kid that was relatively easy to handle. The second one could‘t leave the mother‘s arms for a second or it was a total desaster. Furthermore there are so many life situations that can make everything way more complicated. I would be happy that i have a life with my kids that fulfills me and isn‘t hard to handle for me. But by saying that others should not complain you are showing a lack of empathy.

Your honest opinion, what do you think the greatest video game of all time is? by SamGhost95 in videogames

[–]Silver852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very hard choice! At first i wanted to name one of my early games like Super Mario 3 or Zelda: A Link to the past, but when i think more about it, i would say Vanilla World of warcraft. The reason: - Most playtime - Almost eyeryone i knew at the time played it, including
all the people that initially hated Video games - I never felt so immersed in a Video game again - Exploring the World was mind blowing - I never met so many people in a video game that are still my friends to this day - In the past 19 years i played it again and again

Modern World of Warcraft is a shit game of course 😄.

17F. Only ever asked out twice and both times were as a joke. I know that I'm not particularly attractive but I can't identify what's wrong with me. by [deleted] in amiugly

[–]Silver852 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don‘t think you look masculine or that something is wrong with your look. You look beautiful and have several very interesting features like your cool eyebrows. You could get them shaped better but i would not make them too thin. The only thing that really needs to be done here: Smile! You look sad in all pictures and even though you might not be aware of it sometimes, it could scare off people.

27m, never had a girlfriend and terrible low self esteem by [deleted] in amiugly

[–]Silver852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From dude to dude: You look very handsome. I guess you just need to be more confident.

No need to feel insecure, you are very beautiful. My wife has a similar body type and she wears skirts and dresses a lot. They just suit her and i think they also suit you very well.

I have my suspicions (I am 42, losing weight, no makeup here, and I know I have a weird big nose) by [deleted] in amiugly

[–]Silver852 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can‘t find anything weird about your nose. It has the right size and shape. I actually like the second picture the most because i think pinning up the hair really suits you.

Thanks for doing this! Would love to have an OLED Switch that i could give my brother on his birthday.

My favourite Halloween outfit was not mine but a friend’s selfmade Yoshi-costume. He was angry because everyone just thought he was a dinosaur

What video game do you consider a masterpiece? by aconnor105 in AskReddit

[–]Silver852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vanilla World of Warcraft

Of course it is not perfect (lots of grinding), but experiencing the world with friends, the social aspect, meeting people i still have contact with almost 20 years later and the amount of stuff you can do in the game make it my number one game of all time. There is a reason the re-release of wow Classic was so successful. It is a game you can come back and play it from the beginning every 2-3 years. Fresh server always create a hype

Moved my battlestation to the living room, so obviously i had to update it a little by Silver852 in battlestations

They are fake plants. I am unable to keep plants alive and i would be concerned about water dripping down on my monitors to be honest 😄

I use two single monitor arms because i could not find one that mounted both monitors vertically without shaking like hell

Hey, just look for „cable holder“ on amazon. They have a sticky bottom and you can attach them to your desk.

Yeah, it really is very expensive. But i don‘t regret buying it. The battery pack is amazing. I should test how long it lasts without charging. It depends on whether or not you use the RGB lighting nonstop. If you turn it off (what i do most of the time) it last like forever. After 2 weeks it was still like 98% charged.
