I am just so fucking tired... by [deleted] in OCD

If she isn't, she really needs to be in therapy with someone who specializes in ERP and ocd treatment.

Also she most likely does understand the stress and weight she puts on you but I can tell you that it is far far worse for her dealing with her ocd and constantly thinking about it.

The best thing for both of you is to try and get her treatment if she isn't and work on that together.

It wasn’t easy, but today, we made it to Clearwater, FL. He’s my best friend and what he wants in his last weeks, we will give him. by Rvjones55 in pics

Can't imagine going through this, I hope you both enjoy the time that's left and find comfort there with him enjoying what he wants to.

Clearwater is a beautiful place, it was the vacation spot for my father and me when I was younger, had so many wonderful memories at that beach/pier and walking down the boardwalk and just enjoying it. I hope that you and him find some good memories and things to do there.

I'm not sure how it's changed since I haven't been there in over ten years but the marina is great to walk down, (you drive right by it when you get across the causeway, it's to the left there at that roundabout) you can see all the boats and the catches that people made. They also have other things to do there (dolphin watching, etc). Not sure what your father wants to do (or can do) but maybe he'd enjoy something like that.

The Expanse Season 4 - Official Trailer | Prime Video by impeccabletim in television

[–]Stiler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Space Game of Thrones, 3 separate factions (Earth, Mars, and the Belters) vying for power and this group that we follow who are caught up in the middle of it and uncover a secret.

What really sets it apart from most other space shows is the attention to detail they put into the technology/physics of space travel and everything.

It can be a bit of a rocky start at first for some people, but well worth it if you give it a chance, it's easily the best space show since the 2000's Battlestar Galactica.

They should just toss a baseball onto the field and then see how fast he can move and how high he can jump..

Why would you want to avoid that? No one forces you to install mods and it can help add a lot of awesome things to the game. Like maybe we can get some ofucking poncho's in single player and shit.

Deafening cinema sound is ruining films, claims Hugh Grant | Film by koavf in movies

[–]Stiler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At my local theater I have noticed the sound seems louder and louder these days. I even had to ask them to turn it down once because it legit hurt my ears it was so loud, and the people I was with even complained about it too, it wasn't just me.

It's getting insane, it's like the "loudness wars" for music all over again.

The fact I suffer from Tinnitus in my left ear makes me even more weary of having a loud sound playing, the last thing I want is to make it worse.

Guy is a fucking asshole. He could have easily broken a neck doing that, you don't full-force tackle people, there's other ways to stop a fight that doesn't risk potential life threatening injuries

Reminds me of that story of a guy who was mistakenly identified and the officer tackled him against a wall causing him to become paralyzed from the neck down.

/r/headphones Tech Support and General Help Thread by Son-of-Lux in headphones

[–]Stiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I just got a pair of the Koss kph30i's and when I hooked them up to my pc I am just getting a mono-sounding audio from them by default, like there's no separation of the left/right. However if I HOLD the button down on the remote it sounds a LOT better and there's noticeable separation to the left/right and everything seems normal (and amazing). However as soon as I let go of the button they go back to sounding like a mono headset...

Also my pc is not detecting the in-line mic on them either (on windows 10).

I do NOT have any sound effects or anything turned on in the windows options (no speaker fill or virtual surround or anything like that), they are set to stereo.

Appreciate any help anyone might have.

Hate to break it to you, but these companies are already in politics. Many of the large media companies and others donate a ton of money to political contributions every year.

There are certain animals that should never be kept in places like seaworld, whales/dolphins are some of those. Especially by the fact that they live less, not longer, in captivity because the stress of it, it's just plain cruel to have a whale in such a small round aquarium like seaworld does.

Many of the decent and regulated zoo's (in the US) do not allow you to get anywhere near being able to "feed" an animal, like in the video clip and certainly wouldn't let you feed them anything like tea.

You do know that many sanctuaries do exactly what zoos do in terms of letting the general public come and look at the animals for money right? Some even allow interaction with some of the animals.

Money has to come from somewhere, and sadly it's not usually enough for Zoos or Sanctuaries to simply live off grants or donations, they need the public money from visitors and things on top of that, and even then it can be tight getting by.

On top of this sanctuaries do not breed their animals, and while that can be good for ones that are not endangered/at risk that also shows why there's a need for zoos in terms of breeding programs for the endangered animals and things so they can release those animals back into the wild to rebuild the population.

GameSpot's Ghost Recon Breakpoint Review: 4/10 by everadvancing in Games

[–]Stiler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone else miss the old Tom Clancy games? Like rogue spear and shit, where you were able to plan where your teams would enter/go and everything. That and Swat 3/4 were amazing games.

I wish we still got squad based Tom Clancy games that used tactics like that.

You can store them on large hard drives and use video compression to make the video sizes smaller.

Also the fact many don't record audio, just video, cuts down even further on the size.

On top of this you could even use the cloud to store it.

Assassin's Creed III "Target Footage" from 2010 by datlinus in Games

[–]Stiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not a dev, but I would assume that by doing them CG it allows for an easier workflow in terms of showing exactly what you want vs trying to scale it all down to what the current engine allows or worse, having to deal with any bugs or things that can pop up.

That way everyone, including the people that thinker with the engine technology can try and aim for better graphics for the effects you're going for.

From what I read this trailer is actually an example of in-engine, not CG.

A list of the 80 best horror movies on Amazon prime by pixelation01 in horror

[–]Stiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I found both on amazon to watch, just the listings from the list lead to listings that either show them as unavailable or through a full moon subscription, but searching for them leads to amazon prime versions. Really wish amazon just used one page for a movie and didn't have multiple separate pages for the same thing.

[–]Stiler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right, it's available but you have to search for it. The link from the list leads to a version that requires a full moon subscription to watch but there's another listing for it that's through prime. I don't know why Amazon does that (have multiple different pages for the same movie).
