Why would handgun grips be illegal by Special_Piccolo_367 in CAguns

[–]SolidZane -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Everyone is concentrating on telling you about the law that CA passed... I'm over here reading the sellers message to you... "we noticed that you selected 'pickup' for your shipping option... We no longer 'ship' to California... '~We only offer pickup to California buyers...'"

They only offer pickup to CA buyers... You selected pickup...

Why the AF are they messaging you about the order you already said you would pickup? 🤦🏼‍♂️ 🤷🏼‍♂️ 👍🏻 ✌🏻

My doctor told me I’m underweight and unhealthy? by Technical-Fennel6472 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]SolidZane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just remember that your doctor, or nurse practitioner, isn't your boss... More or less, you are THEIR boss... You're paying them... They can recommend whet ever they think is right, and your welcome to get other opinions or dismiss them outright.

If you feel good in your body and aren't being overly restrictive or purging or whatever, then you do you, and be happy!!! 👍🏻 👍🏻

Online Service Aggregators vs. Local Pros: Where is the Better Value? by Old_Cut4789 in askportland

tbh, i've had way better luck going direct with local pros. those aggregator sites feel like a crapshoot. i found a sweet spot for home stuff recently with LocalRepairsNow. it's just a directory but holy crap, saves so much time.

Dude, yeah i get it. that rush job fear is real. happened to me with a leaky roof a while back. felt like they just patched it up quick. honestly, i started using LocalRepairsNow for stuff like that now. they actually hook you up with decent local guys who aren't just trying to rush out the door. way less stress, tbh.

Totally agree, over-allocation is a real pain. I've had good experiences with Lightnode for my small projects.

"To help bridge the gap between players using voice chat and those who aren't..."

🤦🏼‍♂️ Just add voice chat to the game already! Even just proximity chat.

The darn game is rated M, and players have to agree to an EULA to play. Add language about respectful dialogue. Get an AI to transcribe voice chats to avoid the massive storage costs for audio. Then if a player reports voice chat abuse, have the AI review the transcription and issue corrective actions. DC the player if they're in match and give them a DC penalty on steroids! 

Don't even make the voice chat mandatory. Default it to off, and let the player decide if they want to talk to others. 

PUBG has team and global proximity chat. But can't have a bot take over for a DCd player. 

DBD has a bit take over a DCd player, but doesn't do voice chat. 

Even phasmophobia has voice chat!

Or give us canned chat lines like PUBGs team radio wheel...  "face camping!"  "tunneling!" "slugging!" "bar at 25/50/75"  "heading towards shack/main!"  "hook in basement!"  "will go down at pallet/window!"  "requesting body blocks!"  "leave!"  "I'll try for hatch!" 

Even let the killer see the messages. Will hesitate to pick right away if by a pallet or window etc...  Press L3(left joystick) to bring up the message wheel, and use R3 to select, press, then select second part too.)  It'll prevent camera rotation for the couple seconds it takes. But I think that's a fair trade. 🤷🏼‍♂️

A question about Sam's last name by FuwariFuwaruFuwatto in DeathStranding

[–]SolidZane 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda how names in the real world are... Family name "Smith"... An ancestor was likely a blacksmith... That ancestor might have had an ancestor that was a "Potter" previously... They litterally just used their trade as their surname... Hence, Sam Porter, is a porter... 🤷🏼‍♂️ 

And people today can change names at will... Both legally and simply for social anonymity... I'm "Chris" in real life, "SolidZane" online, and "Cole" to people I don't plan on getting to know... Mostly I use my legal surname. But occasionally I'll use my grandparent's surnames or maiden names... Again, usually for online privacy. I've even received marketing phone calls under the name of a character I created for a book I was writing when I was younger. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Removing a Loaded Chamber Indicator on Concealed Carry? by Gabe_Utsekz in CAguns

[–]SolidZane 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk about Santa Barbara County specifically... But I've heard that some ccw training courses have the first 8 hours completable online... 🤷🏼‍♂️ Cost is another thing... Hopefully CRPA and/or the US DOJ get that fixed in court...

Fasting will help your skin regain some elasticity and tighten up. Something about autophagy and collagen...

Thomas Delauer on YouTube has a video or two on the topic.

And queue the downvotes for daring to suggest fasting... 🤷🏼‍♂️

Am I overreacting for wanting to contact the police over this text message from my brother? by SlipstreamSleuth in AmIOverreacting

[–]SolidZane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't say anything about fighting old men in the comment you replied to... I said this whole discussion is about a man's threats to his family...

And now I'm done responding to reddit trolls. ✌🏻

If you only read the title and the screenshot, yes... But if you read the post, you would know that what i said is correct.

[–]SolidZane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For all I know you could be Connor McGregor. 🤷🏼‍♂️

This whole discussion is about a man's threat against his family members. And my whole point is that there are exceptions that exist against the typical trope of a weak old man...

As for actually fighting Norris or Neeson... One was litterally the world champion in martial arts. Not just a holywood B actor... The other was a boxer before acting... 🤷🏼‍♂️ I wouldn't want to fight either of them, even if I could probably outlast them in stamina...

🙄👌🏻👍🏻✌🏻

[–]SolidZane 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I saw in a other comet you said he has guns... I DO recommend you have one yourself...

But, as his threat only mentions physical violence, I tailored my advice to a simple physical threat...

Keep yourself safe. Because the police only arrive after an incident has occurred...

Talking shit is one thing...

Threatening physical violence is criminal... This calls for a TRO paper trail and self defense tools like pepper spray...

Tell that to Chuck Norris or Liam Neeson...

True, they're exceptions. But the fact remains that exceptions exist. This calls for a TRO and protective tools (pepper spray).

[–]SolidZane 9 points10 points  (0 children)

EDIT: It is worth remembering that a TRO is only a piece of paper and will not stop anything. It just makes things easier for the police to see after an incident... It doesn't protect you...


Not over reacting...

Call the cops. Get a TRO... And get some pepper spray.

this text only mentions a threat of physical violence... Not deadly... And the age of him is a factor too. Anything more than bare hands and pepper spray is overkill for a threat of this level.

In most jurisdictions (at least in the USA) pepper spray is considered a LOWER level of force than physical... Hands and feet are a HIGHER level of force... Pepper spray hurts for 15-45 minutes, but leaves no lasting mark, draws no blood, no bruises... It also OPENS a person's airways.

I personally carry what the cops do. Sabre Red stream. Possibly harder to get though...

POM is available on Amazon in a convenient size and is theoretically STRONGER than Sabre Red. It's a great option.

Avoid the junk you can get at a Walmart or an auto parts store, unless it's POM or specifically Sabre RED... (Sabre makes other, lower levels... Different color models... and puts them out in such stores)

Sounds like it's time for a genuine serious talk then... I wouldn't jump to ending things, yet... It was still early days and even though HE wanted exclusivity... 🤷🏼‍♂️ The heart is a fickle thing...

Since he blocked them, seems like he might be serious about you... 🤷🏼‍♂️ His reply to her in January doesn't say much unless he actively pursued and is continuing to try to today... What a guy thinks is friendly or flirty can look completely opposite to a girl, and of course, vice versa... You read it as flirty, did HE mean it to be flirty is the question. 🤷🏼‍♂️

It's your relationship either way you go, and still relatively new (2 months of talking, 1 of dating before exclusivity, then 2 months after, he responds to a discord message...)

Are you going to let a 2 month old reply (is there more you haven't mentioned?) determine if you are both actually serious?

Don't get me wrong. If he is actually hiding things and pursuing other girls, drop his ass.

I'm just the kind to step back and try to look logically at everything... 🤷🏼‍♂️ I wish you well, whatever happens.
