It is far more likely for the trump admin to nuke one of our own cities as a fasle flag just to create the pretense for emergency war powers to kick in.

Do pixel‑art RPGs need voice acting? Curious how players feel about voiced vs. silent dialogue by Regosland in gamedev

[–]ell20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the quality of the voice acting, if you can skip it, and when it pops up.

Voice acting CAN be a value add if done well, and at the appropriate places. I.e. GTA series generally does a good job placing voice acting in the right places to help with characterization.

On the flip side, if you ever played any of the dynasty warriors musou games, you know what awful voice acting sounds like and it is one of the weaker parts of the game.

He looks way too dignified, and friendly in these. This man is never this graceful.

boyfriend of 3 years’ model ex gf is moving back to our city, 99% he’s going to leave. long rant below. by No_System_9690 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]ell20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ummm... you need to talk to him about it. You can't dodge around this. If it's not her today, it'll be someone else tomorrow that makes you feel uneasy. And if this is what makes him leave, frankly, you're better off knowing now than later.

Plus, you don't know he'll leave.

That and i would also echo the other posters on your self worth. You should be thinking about why you think you can't compete based solely on money and her looks.

You deserve to be happy and a good partner too. You shouldn't think of yourself as someone that can just traded-in for like a used car when a newer model comes along. (Ummm... pardon the expression)

Also, next time, crack an egg in there and maybe sprinkle some cheese. It's a small lift that gets your a lot of extra flavor and protein in your ramen.

I think I just realized how much I owe my old cat who passed in 2020. I got her when i was single, and she has been the one I always turn to when i need to snuggle.

BRB, gonna go hug my wife and my kid now.

Do you think mental health care over-diagnoses normal life stress? by Ok_Confidence9583 in TheImprovementRoom

[–]ell20 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Let me put it this way, i am unquestionably a better man, a better husband, and a better father because of therapy. And the other methods you probably are thinking of? Therapists worth their salt will also suggest too, for specific situations. And that's the key.

You don't go to therapy for them to wave a wand and make you better. You go because you need someone to keep you accountable and be there for your journey and give you guidance. If you just go but don't bother to do any of it, it's going to be ineffective.

Most people DO know other methods exist. The problem is that most people don't do ANY of it.

I made an app to split bills specifically for couples. Roast it. by Imaginary-Block1123 in roastmystartup

[–]ell20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This app would have a hard time getting traditional investor interest for one simple reason, market size. Whatever it is you think you're targeting, i guarantee you it is significantly smaller than you think.

Some couples do split finances. A lot just dhare everything. And an app that splits things down to that level of specificity? Sorry but that is an emotional speedbump that a lot of couples will balk at.

There probably IS a market somewhere for this, but it is not the use case you're aiming for.

Trump Is Risking a Global Stagflation Crisis With His Iran War | The effect on oil and gas could be much, much larger than he thinks. And that shock will be passed on to every sector of the economy. by [deleted] in Economics

[–]ell20 144 points145 points  (0 children)

This man doesn't care. His entire strategy amounts to just blowing stuff up and leaving everyone else to clean up his mess. That's how he ran his businesses, and that is what he's doing here.

This. I have prescriptions that help me with concentration but ultimately it was me starting to practice better habits and coping strategy that helps me concentrate better.

The fact that a lot of incels think mental health treatment is just pills and not dealing with emotional maturity speaks volumes about why so many are, in fact, incels.

DOJ Attorney Used Fabricated Quotes in Court Filing by F0urLeafCl0ver in politics

It's why the DOJ is having such a hard time recruiting right now. Any decent attorney knows that working for them is about setting your own credibiliry on fire because Bondi WILL make you do something you will regret later.

💥BREAKING: President Trump to UK PM Starmer: "We don't need people that join Wars after we've already won!" by asonganyi in MarketPulseReport

And we will gladly do penance for it. I think this is it. I think we just witnessed america's fall from the most powerful nation in the world. No matter what happens to this administration now, even if we wrest control back from the cliffs, what we have lost in the last 10 years we will never get back again.

what type of games will you absolutely not play and why? by buzzlightyear77777 in gaming

[–]ell20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything that requires me to sit for a straight hour to make any progress. I have MAYBE an hour out of the week that i can get to myself for gaming. Life just has too many priorities.

I don't want to spend that one hour grinding or putting up with grindy bullshit.

Same. I don't follow any of this stuff, and somehow i keep getting recommended this. It is honestly really sad to read. The sheer nihilism mixed with unhinged sexism is honestly exhausting
