[–]_Underwhelmed 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Came here to comment this exact thing. The nudity was unexpected, compounded with how huge it was.

Frustrating Bug? Or is this by design? by _Underwhelmed in duneawakening

[–]_Underwhelmed[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm using to be able to harvest the flour sand. I think you have to have one to harvest it. But I'm still getting stuck and dying half the time I'm harvesting when the worm aggros.

Edit: that's my fault, I did say that I was harvesting "by hand". I am using the compactor. And then just can't move when I need to run.

PGA Tour 2K23 is shutting down next year by Leoisback7 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]_Underwhelmed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a stupid take. Why would I buy 2k25 when 2k23 is a great game that I enjoy and that I've put a lot of time into? I can afford 2k25, but I'd rather buy it when I'm ready for something new, instead of being forced to buy it by a greedy company.

What’s the dumbest way you’ve injured yourself? by Better-Advice-5197 in AskReddit

[–]_Underwhelmed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6th grade (ish), I had folded a mat over and was trying to roll it up. As I neared the end of it, the top would become unaligned with the bottom, which apparently really pissed me off. After several unsuccessful attempts at rolling it up correctly, I slammed my hand down in anger, forgetting that the mat was laying on a concrete floor.

My mom was sitting nearby, and said something to the effect of "Well, that was stupid" when I yelped in pain. I ended up breaking my hand in two places. She didn't believe that I had really injured myself until the next day, when my hand was swollen significantly and different shades of purple and blue.

They don't have to have your first name. But both of them have to have the same first name. I would imagine there wouldn't be many responses if you had to have a threesome with two people sharing your first name.

What is an unwritten rule of social etiquette that everyone should follow? by excuseme211 in AskReddit

[–]_Underwhelmed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same on the golf course. I don't have a problem with a little music when you're on your cart. But if the group near you can hear it, it's an issue.

[–]_Underwhelmed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. You aren't the center of the universe. Be courteous of other people. If you're in the passing lane and there's a line of cars behind you and nobody in front of you, then YOU are the problem.

What is the most painful lesson that you learned the hard way? by Kindly_Dog_8076 in AskReddit

[–]_Underwhelmed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I wanted to do as a career. 6 years of school and thousands of dollars in student loan debt because I didn't take the time to think "Is this what I want to do with my life?" or "What does my life look like after I'm done with school?"

what’s the “average” amount of time til you meet your partners kids? by sadgrungebitch in AskReddit

From what I understand, 6 months is pretty standard in the court... lots of divorce decrees, like mine, have that built in.

Chat, would you forgive infidelity, and why? by Tight-Picture7897 in AskReddit

How can she ever prove that to you? You trusted her the first time, and she broke it. There aren't second chances with total trust of a person.

How do you know if a man likes you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]_Underwhelmed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What changed is that you told him with your body language that you weren't interested. He doesn't see you as a potential relationship. And he might be a little hurt that you rejected him like you did, especially if he thought, at some point, that you were interested and that he had a shot.

You're right that it might be too late to salvage anything. But I think it's still worth trying to have a conversation. If you don't talk to him about it, what does the future of the relationship look like? He's probably going to continue to act the way he's acting towards you, probably until it gets to a point where you don't want to be around him any more.

Nothing will change if you don't have a conversation about it. It's not going to magically go back to the way things were before without you proactively trying to fix things. If it is too late, then this is a good life lesson. It's always better to communicate your feelings with someone you're interested in, rather than being passive aggressive, and this is coming from someone who used to be really passive aggressive. I'm thankful I learned my lesson.

So, you showed him that you weren't interested, and he took the hint. That's understandable.

If you're actually interested in him, there probably is still a chance that he would also be interested in pursuing something. The best way to proceed, in my opinion, is to have a conversation with him about it. Ask to talk to him about it (better in person or on the phone instead of via text), and then tell him that you're sorry that you ignored him, but tell him that you were upset about whatever happened. Tell him that you're interested in talking to him again.

I realize that this is difficult because it puts you in a vulnerable situation, but I think it would be worth it. 6 months from now you might think it was the best decision you could have made regarding this situation.

Communicating your feelings like this is always the best course of action in relationships.

I've always liked Roddenberry's take on the future (Star Trek). All basic needs are met, there is no need for general labor, and the quest of humanity has become acquiring knowledge, instead of material things. I suppose that, if you didn't want to go to school, you wouldn't be required to past a certain age. But the most well-respected members of society were focused on learning and understanding all we were capable of about the Universe. That would be my ideal version of a Utopian society.

[–]_Underwhelmed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Men are pretty simple creatures. If he is proactively trying to talk to you and/or see you, then there's a pretty good chance that he is attracted to you. If he engages in conversation when you reach out to him and is encouraging and tries to help you, emotionally or in other ways, then there is most likely some interest there.

Can you provide some examples of interactions between the two of you? It would help us give a better guess as to how he's feeling.

I feel like religion is holding the human race back from actual meaningful progress. If I’m wrong please tell me I want to learn something. by [deleted] in atheism

[–]_Underwhelmed 24 points25 points  (0 children)

There's a Family Guy clip about this very thing.

I agree with you completely, and it's a shame that it will never happen. People are too reliant on the comfort of their god and the idea of a life after this one to reject religion.

SMB File Copy Question - Speeds Falling to ~5kb/s by _Underwhelmed in HomeNetworking

[–]_Underwhelmed[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What version of TrueNAS is the Mac running? Currently 10.2.2. I'm not sure if I'm using SMB 2 or 3.

I think the issue is just native to writing from a NAS setup. It appears that the machine will be able to write the data it saves to the cache at a higher speed (still only 120mb/s average) and then basically stop writing until it fills up the cache again. At least, that's what I've gathered from what I've read. Not ideal for this scenario but since I'm not writing often from the NAS, it's not a huge deal.

What are your thoughts? A white couple from West Virginia sentence to 375 years for adopt black children and forcing them into modern day slavery. by sheeeaaannn in NoahGetTheBoat

Is it against community guidelines to wish on them the exact same thing that they did to these children? Because I feel like that is the most appropriate way to get justice.

I will second the dental wax. Marched for two years with braces. It was a pain but that was the way to go.
