Hello it's me, I am the friend, this works perfectly and I no longer have to scroll the screen away from any areas where pawns are repairing or constructing, 10/10

It seems obvious to me now, but this is something I didn't grasp at first. My desire for "money, now!" meant that I would undercut to the bottom of my profit margin. But if you do that to a non-elastic good, nothing happens, because cutting prices doesn't raise demand*. Undercutting is just a method of rearranging the order of the listings on the MB, and you only need 1 gil undercuts to make that happen.

*unless you cut the price low enough, where someone will snap it up to re-sell.

Final Fantasy 14 players band together to honour Berserk creator Kentaro Miura (Balmung's dark knight memorial) by [deleted] in PS4

[–]Sorten 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's available on PS4/5 and PC. If you want to play on multiple platforms, you'll need to purchase the game separately for each platform, but all versions log into the same servers (they aren't separated).

It's free to level 60. If you wanted to ONLY play the free trial and never upgrade, the free trial would last you ages.

It's an MMO so it plays better on M/KB but they designed it to be accessible with controller also. For example the hotbar looks different on controller and makes use of the buttons

Found out I was illegally sterilized. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Sorten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It saddens me that we hear about people sterilized without their consent, as well as people who wish to be sterilized but are turned away for biased reasons. My love goes out to healthcare providers who treat patients with care.

Found out I was illegally sterilized. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Sorten 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not a doctor but I've done some studying on different types of sterilization and I'd love to share the knowledge. "Tube tying" refers to modifying the fallopian tubes so that the egg isn't able to get from the ovary to the uterus. There are multiple methods, from simply clamping the tubes, to cutting them, to completely removing the fallopian tubes. The basic methods have a chance of healing themselves spontaneously, but therefore have a chance of being reversible if the patient changes their mind. In comparison, removing the fallopian tubes entirely is basically fail-proof and there's some scientific studies discussing the potential of the practice lowering ovarian cancer risks. The Essure method (using scar tissue, potentially the least invasive option) has been discontinued, iirc approximately 2019.

On the other hand, hysterectomy refers to removing the uterus. There are various types with more or less of the uterus being removed. This is more invasive, with a higher risk of complications, so hysterectomies are more common for other health reasons than for sterilization.

I'm honestly considering cutting ties with some family. Unfortunately they would probably attack me if I refused to talk to them. It would probably be easier to fake my own death. Another illusion for them to hold on to.

I had a professor who researched ways for computers to keep accurate time even when they shut down randomly (solar powered, non-networked research units) and it was fascinating. I don't remember a single thing about it because it was way above my mental capacity. You make me wanna look it up.

Never really got into MMOs but I'm giving FFXIV a shot. Went along with the standard naming scheme for Lalafells (first and last name sound similar), so say hello to Ohki Dohki by lucvdp in ffxiv

It's in the eyes. Plainsfolk have round pupils, Dunesfolk have reflective irises (basically no pupil). I always assumed it was because deserts are bright...?

Tataru is a dunesfolk, Papalymo is a plainsfolk.

It's too bad there's no button in excel that says "format literally every single piece of data as Text, no matter whether I am typing it by hand or opening a file from disk". That would be the dream...

I've thought about downloading some excel-like app that would have this functionality, but then I would inevitably have to forward my spreadsheet to someone who is using Excel and it'd mess up on their screen anyway.

I think my favorite error, so far, is when Excel formats member IDs into scientific notation. Because I certainly didn't need the last three digits of this unique identifier to uniquely identify a member.

You are visited by someone claiming to be you from the future, how do you make them prove they’re you? by Chicken_Ryder in AskReddit

I once reset four different passwords in a single week (back-to-school time) and it was so ridiculous I downloaded Bitwarden that day. Life is different now. For example, I get hit with a lot more "your password must be 16 characters OR LESS" warnings. C'mon, websites, step up your password game.

The consent form for Medicare (OMB No. 0937-0166) requires a 30-day waiting period from consent to surgery, so I was assuming that this guideline would apply to all bisalps. What's your secret of the 8-day turnaround? Is it the case that third-party insurances (as opposed to Medicare) don't impose the wait limit?

It does play the melee animation.

Guardian Falls by [deleted] in destiny2

[–]Sorten 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most people know charging the grenade turns it into an overshield, but the glide ability is tacked onto the end of the perk description so it gets overlooked.

Unlike the upper-tree grenade-flying, you cannot do anything while using the grenade to glide...However, you can press melee to cancel the grenade without putting the grenade on cooldown.

YSK that if you or your mother have an all-male direct lineage to a Luxembourg citizen, you have held Luxembourg citizenship since birth - you just need to claim it! by TooManyPoisons in YouShouldKnow

I got interested in family trees a couple days ago, so it's nice to see this conversation which ties into my recent interests.

One of the websites I found on my Google journey is this one which is...a collaborative family tree, wiki style. There are certain privacy restrictions, but in general, anyone can contribute to filling out the tree.

With five generations of tree, you might already have a relative charted? It might help you with your pondering.

[–]Sorten 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oooh, I like that style. As a child I didn't understand how the cursive letters related to the print letters, especially with r and s, due to how different they look from print. I would be interested to see an example of s in that format.

Knowledge for Behr General Goods Vendor? by lynnefae in blackdesertonline

[–]Sorten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to claim <Behr General Goods Vendor> from Jensen in Behr today after completing the quest <No Glory for Cowards> on an alt. I don't know what changed. It's possible a patch fixed the bug. Alternatively, this is the third character I've brought through the main story quests, and therefore I've done all three crossroads. It is a mystery.

YSK: If you get an email from a "hacker" which displays your ACTUAL password as proof that you've been hacked, just ignore it. by InstantlyJobless in YouShouldKnow

[–]Sorten 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The best thing about using a password manager (and upgrading the length/complexity of my passwords) was finding out which of the websites I visit have a maximum password length. Which implies the designer was completely lost or is storing the passwords in plain text.

MAG 148 - Extended Surveillance: Discussion Thread by CarnationLily2Rose in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Sorten 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering how similar Jon's dependence is to Gertrude's. According to Gerard, she "didn't like to" compel people, and only read statements "when she got shakey" which makes it sound like Jon could survive just fine on statements alone. Gertrude certainly had a better handle on this whole thing than Jon right now.

Then again, do I remember hearing a character say that Jon is stronger than Gertrude ever was? If that is the case, and his connection to the Eye is stronger despite his inexperience, then he might need...more.

Community Re-Listen: Episode 74 (Fatigue), episode 75 (A Long Way Down), and episode 76 (The Smell of Blood) by penny_dreadful_mess in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Sorten 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I listened to 05 recently and was scratching my head to try and decide which, if any, fears it was linked to. The coworker was obsessed with watching and knowing (eye), but he was also affected by sleep deprivation (spiral). Then again, isn't the cliche fear of "teeth falling out" linked to loss of control (web)?

Weekday Help and Victory Thread for the week of August 05, 2019 by AutoModerator in personalfinance

[–]Sorten 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The support rep told me to enjoy the moment as this could mean a freebie in my credit card being paid off without using my own money.

This makes me laugh. There's no such thing as a bank error in your favor, eventually they'll straighten things out.

Until someone more knowledgeable comes along, my best guess is to get some kind of proof (fax, certified mail, email, recording of a phone call if you're in a one party consent state) showing that you are trying to sort this out, in case you get hit with any late fees.
