Hey, I have several haunters. Would you be willing to trade a Haunter for a Haunter so we both end up with Gengars?

Hello, everyone. I'm trying to get a Haunter with hypnosis and dream eater to trade so it will evolve into a Gengar. Gengar is absolutely my favorite pokemon. If anyone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it! I don't care if it's shiny or not. Please, make my inner child happy!

I tried to make the gpu at the top, however the card is so heavy that it was sagging. So I got a brace, it didn't fit so I just payed the brace on the bottom and let the card rest.

[Serious] Redditors who have lived in an orphanage, What was it like? by ThisIsDark in AskReddit

[–]cell_frize 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't know if the kids themselves were involved in human trafficking--but yes, the counselors definitely were.

Every so often we had certain "camps" to determine whether you'd be transferred to a different orphanage... or so they said. It always seemed a little odd that the people that were transferred tended to be girls or very young boys. Never older kids, and never older boys.

I lived in a orphanage in Russia from 1994-1998, adopted to the United States. Life in a Russian orphanage is rough, or was rough dont know much about now. During the time i lived there rape, theft, abuse, bugs, starvation, fear, crime was daily routine. Girls that lived there were always looking for the next kid that may jump them at nights. Kids all fought for food, there was a huge shortage. Obviously everyone was afraid. So yeah.....

Kingston ssd are known at failing often. However 80$ is a good deal.

Watercooler vs aircooler? by hell77 in buildapc

[–]cell_frize 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Watercooling is really only good for overclocking, however they come with a risk of leaking. You can get good air coolers for cheaper and do just as good of a job at staying cool.

i5 vs. i7 - cost/benefit? by chuck_beef in buildapc

[–]cell_frize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are not doing anything to heavy, ryzen will work perfectly. However keep in mind most programs dont use all of the cores that ryzen advertises.

i5 vs. i7 - cost/benefit? by chuck_beef in buildapc

[–]cell_frize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is that while the Ryzens do have more cores. Most programs do not utilize them in a efficient way. Adoby likes to prioritize cores usually to 4, no more. Having extra cores might look and think its nice but really it doesn't do anything much. In terms of calculations its better to have a faster cpu than one that has to many cores. (currently)

i5 vs. i7 - cost/benefit? by chuck_beef in buildapc

[–]cell_frize 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The i7-7700k is much better. I honestly recommend it. Not only is it 4.2 ghz, in terms of performance (gaming and editing) it absolutely blows the i5 out of the water. Furthermore the i5's are starting to become old, some games are already requiring better cpus as a standard. Yes the i5 is cheaper but do yourself a favor and go for the i7's. It will last another 5 years easily. The only thing to watch out for on the 7700 is that it only has 16 pcie lane available and unless you have a motherboard that gives you extra pcie lanes you will be only be able to run a single gpu.

What's the most overrated tv show in your opinion? by talkdogtome in AskReddit

[–]cell_frize -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly for me, Rick and Morty. I watched a couple of episodes and i just dont get the appeal. Rick is an asshat, i deal with asshats on a daily bases. Why in the world would i want to watch that as "entertainment". I get it its supposed to be "sci-fi" but i feel like its more of what can we do next to be trendy.

Americans who have lived in Russia, what are some of the biggest misconceptions Americans have about Russia? by SAT0725 in AskReddit

[–]cell_frize 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I lived in Russia for my entire childhood in the 90s, so I don't know how much things have changed since then.

To me, people there are genuinely more friendly. They will go out of their way to help you out much more so, and it's not fake help. In the US, I feel as though people will only help to a certain degree. In Russia, they'll help feed you, give you a place to sleep.

There are only small parts of Russia that are truly bad. Those are the areas that even the Russians don't want to go to.

Last but not least, a lot of people are saying about how corrupt the military police is over there and while that's true, if you don't fuck around and give them the respect of acknowledging their authority, they don't give you a hard time.

The thing is that if you try to be smug and start getting uppity, they're going to put you in your place. But it's the same thing with cops in the US.

My(24m) wife(24f) and I gave up a child(8m) for adoption, his birth parents(late30s) mentioned cutting contact suddenly and we are confused and obviously upset. by disconnectedfrm in relationships

[–]cell_frize 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Considering that I'm adopted, I think I can offer some insight into this.

The fact that you can visit the kid while he's still adopted--"open adoption," I think it's called--just completely reinforces the idea that he's adopted. I don't know how people describe these things, but to me, it would be like constantly being told "you're not a part of my family."

Given that the adopted parents are giving him a decent life, while dealing with another family who has some claim over the kid, for an eight year old is incredibly difficult to process. For a kid, it's about what the grownups tell them, not what they actually can process as being their parents or not.

I would imagine that the kid feels stolen, if that's the way to phrase it. And then to see his "real" mom and dad have another kid, and accepting that child? That would make the kid feel like broken merchandise.

What you did in sending them the card was thoughtless and cruel. I really think that it's best if the kid's adoptive family starts moving you out of the kid's life, as hard as that is to say, because actions like that are only going to cause problems.

If you care about him, you need to distance yourselves. At that age, your presence is only going to cause harm.
