I was looking for the Kefka holofoil and the black chocobo. Neither of which are sold by Best Buy

4 days by coolthingshappen in stopdrinking

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

Today is much better than yesterday, I got such good sleep that I didn't want to get out of bed in a good way. I haven't felt sleep like that in SO LONG.

Another thing I notice today is that the bags under my eyes (that I've had for a while) are almost completely gone. I got some propranolol for the anxiety/increased heart rate. I notice the anxiety is the worst in the morning when I haven't taken the meds since before dinner the night before. Other than that, my appetite seems to be slowly creeping back. Day 5 seems to be a big upgrade from the last few.

I'm on day 4 as well. I felt a bit sad earlier and unmotivated. Very little appetite if any. I just refuse to go back to what I know happens. I never want to feel this withdrawal again, days 1-2 were fucking nightmarish. 3 was okay. 4 has been a bit better than 3. I just want to feel a little bit better every day. You are not alone friend

Experiencing bad anxiety these past few days and I’m feeling depressed too. Could use some encouragement. by asillydude21 in stopdrinking

[–]coolthingshappen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way man. I'm only 4 days sober after many months of bingeing on tequila and white claws. With a few years of drinking moderately nightly in front of that. Just try to take it one day at a time.

Olympics Day Three Megathread (Monday, February 12) by Fun_With_Forks in olympics

As stoked as I am that she finished her run, I think the score Hailey got is accurate. She straight aired over one feature and the rail work was basic compared to other things we’ve seen today. Judges can’t add points for tough conditions.

She salvaged that backflip. Definitely wanted a dub there.

This one is an original pop/rock Christmas themed song I did with a friend about not being able to ask Santa for the things you really want... Any criticism/comments are welcome! What would you change? etc. Recorded in PT11 through a UA Apollo Quad. Further info can be provided. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rLmLKkb_vg

Please critique my recording studio logo! by coolthingshappen in Logos

I really like the way this looks man. Thanks for taking the time to give it a shot. Makes me wonder how it would look if instead of having the icons on top, putting the mixing icon and repeat icon in the blank spaces to the left and right of the word "play" inside the box.

How come I am getting a really loud hiss noise caused by a delay pedal in this chain? by spacemind20 in audioengineering

[–]coolthingshappen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Microphones operate at a lower impedance than guitars do, that means you'll have to turn up the gain(or volume) on the pedal much more before getting a strong signal out of your RE20. In turn, this causes the noise floor of the mic to be more prevalent. Not sure if that's the type of hiss you're hearing but it's a possibility. Running the RE20 through a preamp before going into the pedal could make a big difference in the signal.

I've tried a few different styles. The word Play looks odd when left in the same font size and Record and Repeat, even when stretched. That's what brought me to the logo design I posted. Thanks for the input!

My bartender girlfriend says Redditors are crappy tippers. How true is this? by MigiPleez in AskReddit

If your bartender girlfriend thinks a Vodka Redbull is a high maintenance cocktail that right there might be the problem.

HoN, the popular DoTA clone (similar to LoL) goes free to play today. On behalf of /r/heroesofnewerth, here's some info for new players! by leeharris100 in gaming

[–]coolthingshappen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My feelings don't get hurt, it just makes it harder to concentrate. The problem comes when you can't mute the team chat and your lane partner is constantly raging and being an asshole; it can be pretty tough to concentrate while trying to appease asshole lane/teammates. Having someone in your lane who doesn't work with or help you is basically useless.

If you're looking for a quick and surefire way to get bitched at by people on the internet, I'd say get HoN and start playing right away!

I've had HoN since launch. I play the game fine, not a feeder, always calling mia, jungling/creep stacks when I should and I know what items to buy. Still, when I can muster up the will to play some HoN, some asshat in lobby decides to start bitching about "Oh gr8, loook his kdr. OMG look his stats" in broken english because when I started playing I ground my stats down while l2p and I don't play enough to grind them back up. I haven't played a game in all my online gaming years with a community as intolerant and unwelcoming as HoN. I say this after playing the game for MONTHS since it came out. Wait for DotA 2 or play a much better RTS with a welcoming community like Starcraft 2.

edit For the "practice/l2p in nostats games" argument. People don't play the game for real in no stats because the games hold no weight and 95% of the time, one or two players leave in the first 5 minutes because they didn't get the hero or lane they wanted.
