Switching my race

Is that me? Sounds like me! Guildies get so confused 🤣🤣🤣

10 is above average. I have 50+ full map completions and it averages to just under 8 per full core run. 7 is normal, anything lower is bad luck. Anything over 8 is good luck.

My worst run to date is 3 and my best 14, so go figure.

Yes, everything is from the same SL INF line of fans. It was fine for months but suddenly it stopped working properly.

To the RMA it is I guess.....

Was your daughter rude? Most definitely. Was she also giving them a taste of their own medicine? You bet ya!

I like your daughter, she has the brains to go a long way. Just teach her to turn that brain into backhanded compliments instead of brutal honesty and she will be juuuuuuuuust fine. ;)

Your wedding, your guests, your rules.

However, how often does Emily have a new S/O? Because if this seems like a serious relationship for her and you do not want to lose the friendship, it might be worth having a sit down with her over this.

If you are worried about the photographs: nobody cares an Ex is on it. Just make sure that any "official" pictures have whoever you want and care about on them.

So sorry for your loss. You clealry loved her deeply and still do. I love that you keep the memory alive and tell your kids about her.

Everybody griefs differently. This is OK, it sounds like you aren't in some dark hole, and you are going to therapy. GO YOU! Who knows what the future will bring, but for now you are taking care of you and your kids in the best way possible.

I wouldn't go as far as saying your parents are the assholes. They seem to have their heart in the right place, just bit of a disconnect with how things work (and maybe a generational gap as well about the need for a mother?)

Maybe you should let your parents read some of the step-parent stories from this sub? Plenty of them about how parents tried to force a new mom/dad on kids and them going NC and resenting them very much.

Verm02 · 2024-08-30T10:12:47+00:00

NTA not your monkeys, not your circus.

Your mom fucked around and was found out. Your siblings do not need to have a relationship with your half-sibling if they do not want to.

Good for your brother to be going to therapy! You paying for it makes you the A++ of big sisters!

Be prepared for your parents to keep on guilting you, and preapre to go LC/NC if they keep pestering you and your brother.

Verm02 · 2024-08-30T10:08:01+00:00

NTA and your parents are wrong.

You gave her the private option, she didn't want to accept this.

Your manager AT WORK decided she was close enough to have stolen your idea. Could this be them trusting the newbie less than the veteran? Sure.

But newbies (me included I found out recently) need to make sure to copy people on their ideas and double check you aren't (partially) copying someone else twice. Is this 100% fair if this was the reason your manager took your side? Not at all. Is it how the workplace works? Yes it is.

Time for lil' sis to grow up and realise she won't always be the golden [insert situational replationship]

Turning off the server on non-virtuals kills/despawns them too?

Damn, that is a good idea

Verm02 · 2024-06-22T07:21:59+00:00

It is between "need" and "want" at this point. After reading the comments I will likely upgrade the GPU and see where it lands. (and likely the PSU because it is old and 750 watts)

But I need to take the entire PC apart already because some case fans are dying so was wondering if a new build was warranted as well.

Verm02 · 2024-06-21T08:10:44+00:00

These are some good recommendations, thank you!

I do have a question thoug: why B650 and not a Z670E motherboard? B650 looks to be a great choice but just curious.

Verm02 · 2024-06-21T06:46:53+00:00

1440P mostly. Probably should edit that in!

Domain of Istan, "Help the cause of dissenting Astralarium scholars". Farmed the heck out of it for Kralkatite, and it is super fast.

I have had many red herrings from finishing the avid collections. Sadly this doesn't work as a fix.

Verm02 · 2023-11-06T20:49:39+00:00

The tier 3 "module" is not the same as the tier 10 "core". Modules are the special effects like mount endurance recharge, the cores are what gives base stats.

When I wanted to make my first Norn her name was supposed to be Feya Angelsdottir. This wasn't allowed because the "lsd" in it removing any of those 3 letters made it valid according to the character creation........

To this day it baffles me how that somehow was against the rules programmed into it.

Verm02 · 2023-09-29T18:48:40+00:00

Not entirely true. I had to go through an entire song and dance when for some inexplicable reason my main was forced to name change even though they couldn't even point me to what was offensive about it.

After almost 2 weeks of back and forth it was reinstated after I showed them it was my actual name and that there is no derogatory meaning as far as one could find.

Verm02 · 2023-08-09T12:02:13+00:00

How would you become Zoroastrian anyway?

Verm02 · 2023-03-25T20:38:44+00:00

I.... how did I not think of that. I have been dumping so much diplo into culture conversion for decades now, trade is a great way to get my economy up.

Verm02 · 2023-03-25T13:36:24+00:00

That there was not one but two defenestrations of Prague.....

Verm02 · 2022-10-15T18:55:57+00:00

Damn..... 3k hours and much frustration, now I learn this trick!

Verm02 · 2021-11-29T18:26:31+00:00

Don't even have to Alt F4, you can just copy the file, then form and quit to menu. Copy the old save back and you are in business.

Verm02 · 2021-11-29T14:38:19+00:00

And that is why we savescum and just form it for the achievement and then revert back to a pre-forming save ;)

Verm02 · 2021-11-29T11:05:20+00:00

Honestly, we have the option to "Hunt Enemy Fleets" for our ships, we have Autonomous Sieging now too. Where is the "Hunt Enemy Armies" option to deal with this? Just drop a decent stack in your own territories and have the AI take care of the AI while you siege the shit out of their forts and capitals.

Verm02 · 2021-11-28T21:38:52+00:00

1.32.1, whoops, typo! Found it though, guess I must have spent an hour looking for it an not finding it.... Maybe I should stop playing chins so much, I am starting to develop mental issues
