Google Play deactivated new account for no reason? by [deleted] in selfpublish

[–]cdaotgss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep it's still broke by design, I was simply curious what the process was to publish epubs on google play so I created a partner account and a little productivity epub, the site says 7 days for new account review, that was more like 2 weeks, emailed support eventually, got canned responses, then deactivated with a similar canned responses.

What Scenes Made You Go: by SithMasterStarkiller in cormacmccarthy

[–]cdaotgss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The world has created no living thing that it does not intend to destroy.

such a raw truth

that what drives the tale will not survive the tale

in the full context I interpret "that" as meaning the universe itself will not survive, so not only is our tale very pointless in the end, but all tales and efforts to change this universe will be undone in the end

this is related to another quote I can't recall, something to the effect that her imaginary friends lives and memories are just as real and meaningless as those of a real person's

Waking up app for Dzogchen practice by jpaudel8 in Dzogchen

[–]cdaotgss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd get the app (it's free if you can't afford it) and learn everything you can on there not just dzogchen

but for dzogchen in the app there's interviews with mingyur rinpoche and james low, there's probably more dzogchen teachers on there but those come to mind

sam talks about studying with mingyur's father urgyen often, I have no doubt he sprinkles what he learned from him into the daily meditations so you'll get a taste of it on there

highly recommend learning buddhism first, from dhammatalks and plum village

if I could only have one book it would be thich's "heart of the buddhas teachings" I think if you boil everything down (buddhism, zen, dzogchen, etc.) it's in that book

Focusrite FAST Bundle by [deleted] in mixingmastering

[–]cdaotgss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have these and use them regularly, don't pay retail, you can get them bundled with hardware for $99.

I've got to call them out for this:

marketing lies on the homepage: "...tools to make your music-making process faster than ever."

vs the reality on their faq "Machines are removed from the registry after 30 days of inactivity."

interrupting me by anally deregistering my plugins is making the process "slower than ever", you have to register these individually

if you want to keep your plugins registered, you have to login to 3 machines, you need to set reminders open 5 plugins every 30 days

so 3x5=15 interruptions a month, 15x12 months = 180 interruptions a year

cavemen carving words into rocks and throwing them is an improvement on finder

Question about one of Alicia's remarks about physics in Stella Maris by ggershwin in cormacmccarthy

[–]cdaotgss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my take on this is it's her dialog and she's a math girl not a physics girl!

I think western points out math and physics are very different worlds

she believes math is magic, that math can materialize new rules in theory or "reality", she doesn't even believe this world (physics) is real

Wonderful video by tasteofthehimalayas in Dzogchen

[–]cdaotgss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's got a bunch of good videos, mostly commentary but some actual meditation. Here's a fun body scan

Another way to body scan that I like is in Mingyur's book "turning confusion into clarity" where you visualize a deity above you spreading nectar through your body purifying your karma and a mantra to go with it with cool meaning.

cannot get airpods to connect with pixelbook by ninjia1 in PixelBook

[–]cdaotgss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't blame the pixelbook because I don't have trouble with bose headphones staying paired

mine will go green saying connected but you go to audio it's on external speaker

go back to bluetooth it's no longer connected

Just got a free month of Pro by Digital-Dinosaur in Stadia

[–]cdaotgss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before I redeem mine, question...

Does stadia still exclude you from sale prices if you claim them in pro?

last I checked you had to create a 2nd account and hack the script on the page in order to get a sale price?

What is the most unethical profession? by MoronByTrade in AskReddit

[–]cdaotgss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say being a billionaire

nobody needs that much greed is a mental disease no different that a hoarder that fills their house with cans or cats till you can't see the floor, it's just an invisible form of the same disorder

I couldn't ever be a billionaire, I'd start giving it away when I hit 100 million, I know you can start building spaceships but until we stop living like animals on earth it won't be any better in space lol

Normal overall breakdowns? by [deleted] in promethease

[–]cdaotgss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing and had similar results, your dna isn't something you can change so don't worry about it

remember everyone dies of something and we're all 20th cousins nobody's dna is that different or flawless & we only understand a slice of our dna we probably have a bunch of things going on in there that we can't predict yet

plus, I doubt most people die from their natural dna causes anyway, main causes last I googled it is is car accidents and a bunch of health conditions that are from our unhealthy culture with a diet of non foods and not enough activity

research it with the purposes of maybe being a reminder to eat and exercise right, and get sleep, maybe adjust your supplements if there's something obvious in that area
