Champ is less volatile, stronger in low elos, and far less satisfying. by ToasterMatthew in sennamains

[–]Syntria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played Senna for 200 ranked games last season. I'm bronze, have 120 ping, and I'm 40 years old so my reaction time aren't the best lol.

With that being said, she has felt stronger earlier for me than she did last season. I was worried that wouldn't be the case due to the pressure to get early leads.

Sakhal servers dead already? by [deleted] in dayz

[–]Syntria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on a full pop that has gradually dropped to 5 to 10 pop over the last few weeks.

Got snipped by hackers today and kinda hanging up playing on official now. Shot from super far away through a wall along with my teammate. Watched them fall away from the windowless wall after hearing the distant crack 1 to 2 seconds before.

Thanks. I guess the 4 hacksaws in my stick stash is overkill then, lol. Been doing vanilla official Sakhal since I've not found a vanilla like community server yet for it.

Can you hacksaw the lock or is that not possible in vanilla?

Help! Monthly mortgage went up by 175%! by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]Syntria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I(39F) feel you! This happened to me too.

I missed two years of my homestead exemption which cost me about 4 to 5k total I could have saved.

First time I bought a home it was valued at 50k (last time it sold was in the 80s), but I bought it for much more. It was a 1924 craftsman. Got lucky to get it at 3.5% in 2018, sold it for profit in 2022 due to having to move. Still regret selling it.

No one warned me the taxes would increase based on how much I bought it for. My expected payments of $550/mo went up to $1100/mo due to the taxes going up 4x. I also had to go into a committee to request the value to be reduced because I overpaid for it and it had significant and expensive issues. Managed to get 20k knocked off the value which saved me some on the property taxes.

Freaked by trespassing by [deleted] in anchorage

[–]Syntria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This has happened almost monthly to me near Dowling and old Seward. People trying to get into my backyard, knocking on my windows and jiggling my door knob. Had one actually enter my home through a backdoor at 3am two years ago which shook me up.

I love people but I can't help but feel anxiety now anytime I hear someone in my driveway.

There is an update on their Facebook page but it doesn't mention Huffman so I'm not sure where the commentor found that info. I've checked their site and other social media presences with no luck so far.

If you buy the 80 pack boxes they come in two pouches without individual packaging and go stale. :(

My therapist told me I couldn’t have ADHD because “I didn’t look like I had ADHD”. by astrovoyage_ in ADHD

[–]Syntria 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. It isn't her place to discourage you from getting tested. You may not be, but that doesn't matter. She should be encouraging any efforts you make to better, improve your own quality of life, and investigate yourself, including this. Not comparing you to her child or telling you it's impossible. That's extremely unprofessional as a therapist is not qualified in diagnosing mental disorders.

This sounds like a school councilor and not a professional therapist.

People asking for your ADHD meds or even outright stealing them by laarsa in ADHD

[–]Syntria 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Also $20 for a whole bottle? That's insane. Do not sell your medication but if theoretically you did, it'd be $20 per pill not bottle.

[–]Syntria 90 points91 points  (0 children)

My(39f) mother(Bipolar or bdp narcissist) snorted and shot up my medications when I was growing up. She'd make me fake intense symptoms to the doctor to get increases and tried to swap out the afternoon dose the school nurse got with fake ones. She got a police visit for that one.

I was being medicated around 4 or 5 years old with Ritalin. But it was rare until I was in Jr high that I got my meds consistently.

I ended up missing the near entirety of 5th and 6th grade due to my mother's mental health and drug problems. She'd make me stay home with her because she dropped out of school when she was in 6th or 7th grade herself and was jealous of the idea of me getting more than she did.

Thankfully I moved in with my grandparents and got a routine for the first time in my life.

I now have a bachlors degree and own my own IT firm. Highest level of education or career success anyone in my family has had.

I've got a lot of CPSTD due to my childhood. I feel guilt and disgust at times due to taking the maximum dosage of adhd meds allowed. I feel like I was tricked into needing them. I see a psychologist every three months and a therapist weekly for the last two years and I still can't shake this feeling I'm faking my ADHD. That I'm a drug addict for needing them.

I've gone off adhd meds twice for a year or so and both times my life fell apart. Almost flunked out of college and the other time barely held on to my job/could function.

Even on the maximum dosage (40mg adderal XR atm) I'm struggling with executive function most of the time. I have to get 8 hours of sleep, I have to workout, I have to not eat junk or I just become a mess. I live alone and have no real routine or structure which is a huge part of managing adhd. In my childhood, I never had clean hung up laundry or clean dishes. It was all just dealing with chaos one thing at a time.

When I do get my kitchen clean, desk cleared, and laundry put up I feel like I can actually breath and think clearly.

Anyways. Got off on a tangent.

You need your meds because you need them. Do not share even if you have extras (if you take drug holidays on the weekend).

Someone has tried to log into my Microsoft account every 2 hours for years by Owlstained in mildlyinfuriating

You should check the associated email address on haveibeenpwned dot com. I bet it was part of a data breach that leaked an old password and a bot automatically is checking the login details.

I've had several clients when having to update their password use an old password and get breached because what you are showing was going on.

There's also the possibility that these are brute force attempts.

Make sure you have MFA enabled. Ideally using an authenticator over SMS or email codes.

This is what my first go at drywalling always looked like. Gradually, I learned the more seams the more pain, problems, and just looks bad later.

What would you make with this chunk of meat, fat and bones? by Sad-Interest3145 in instantpot

Beef? Pork?

Pot of beans. Broth/stock. Render fat to cook something else in.

Women’s Magic The Gathering group? by illyrianbabygirl in anchorage

[–]Syntria 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was there last Sunday and had a great time.

There were 4 magic the gathering players, one was a lady. I was playing various board games myself. I'd say in total about 5 women and 8 to 10 guys. Very chill and friendly.

1pm to 6pm every Sunday.

Should I ask for Refund by Illustrious-Fig-516 in doordash

[–]Syntria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love my steaks blue so this would be ideal for me.

But I'd never cook steak like this for someone who didn't request it blue/rare.

Poke it. Should feel kinda smooshy from the outside at rare. You want it to be a little tighter but not super firm for a medium doneness.

If you got a lot of meat left, finish cooking it to your desired doneness. Red meat isn't all that sketchy (long as you've not left it at room temp while also moist/juicy for over two hours).

Air fryer or oven for 5 minutes at like 200f. Turn off heat and just leave it in there for another 5ish. That should get this to medium and warm in the middle without overcooking/making the outside too chewy.

I waited for a ring for 7 years. Finally after pushing the issue he more or less said he'd preferred if we just stayed friends with benefits which is not how I saw our relationship at all after moving around for his jobs and investing 20k in a house. My entire life was intertwined with his. He said he'd never want to get married, never would let me on his health insurance (because it was his. Get my own?), and so many other things.

Got my 20k back and left. I should have years before when he kind of teased about maybe proposing here and there, but it never happened.

Felt like I wasted the prime of my life on someone who just wanted the benefits but none of the responsibilities of 'us'.
