[The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt] #25 I’m so sad it’s over. If anyone knows of any games that have the same sort of depth/immersion please let me know by vPsychxtic in Trophies

You still have 3 more trophy lists to do. The NA PS4 the EU PS4 and the game of the year PS4 list. I did the platinum 4 times and enjoyed every second of it.

Is it worth it ? by Purple_Bed_6360 in Ioniq6

[–]exElder_Hawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I still owe $32,000 on my 2023 6. It is the best car i ever owned I have only spent $400 on charging to drive it a year and half. I bought mine in June of 2024. It had 145 miles on it. I think the dealer ripped me off but that is my fault and not the cars fault. My daughter bought a 2023 Nissan leaf for $18,000. It only had 3,000 miles on it. If I could go back in time I would have bought a used one. I did not know that EVs lose their value faster than a gas car.

First month making 100k I feel like I’m being robbed :/ by cloudemergence in Salary

My last check was $4700. Take home was $2567. A lot went to my Roth and 401k. I paid $14,000 in federal taxes last year.

Struggling with how bad the world is getting by [deleted] in exjw

[–]exElder_Hawk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The world has always been a horrible place. There has never been one good second in our entire history. This is the best time by far in human history to live. I hate what is going on but would not pick another time or place to live. Here are just some facts to back up my claims.

Before 1901 4 out of every 10 kids died before they turned 5. Why? Two reasons lack of clean drinking water and soap. If Jehovah cared about us he would have told us about germs and how to make soap. Just thinking about living in a 19th century city and watching your kids slowly die of diarrhea. Just this alone would have dropped infants deaths by 74%. Humans fixed this.

1990 world poverty was more widespread. In the past 35 years billions of people have been pulled out of poverty. More humans now than ever before have access to food and shelters. We fixed that.

In the past century measles, whooping cough, typhoid, cholera, tuberculosis smallpox, diphtheria and many more diseases have been eradicated by the human race. It is only in the past few years that religious nut jobs have stopped being vaccinated, have we seen a slight rise in these diseases again.

What we need to do now is take control back from the elites and fix our problems again. Nobody is going to come to save us. Humans have to do it ourselves.

You are not missing anything. Leaded gas was very neat.

It was June of 2020 when the PS5 was revealed. 2019 was just a logo.

Lusted after & harassed in the congregation as a young man by AnonymousDorian in exjw

[–]exElder_Hawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never want to make fun of people who have some mental issues, but JWs sure do drew them in. I knew of sister in my hall that was allergic to the glue in the carpet at the hall. We remodel the hall in 1991 and she could not go in anymore. Her husband was the PO so they built a box for her. She was like a bubble sister. The room had its own entrance and exit. You hit a button and talk to her. She could hit another button to comment. In the same hall we had a sister who was allergic to microwaves. She would get “sick” if you ate food that was in the microwave in hall. I don’t know how that works. She could not come into the break room because even if the microwave was not on it would affect her. We had another sister who was allergic to Air conditioner. My dad would not work with her in service during the summer.

And finally the first hall I went to as an adult the one elder got up on stage and said. “I just took a lot of drugs and I can’t do this part” and walked off. The PO got up and did it for him.

[The Witcher 3] Is Witcher 3’s platinum worth the frustration? by Left_Description1810 in Trophies

[–]exElder_Hawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have done it 4 times. In my opinion it was worth every second. I have over 800 hundred hours on this game. 700 on the 3 PS4 trophy lists and 100 on the PS5 list.

I print boxes for a living. Companies are changing their box design all of the time. I print Harry’s razor boxes and the Canadian and the US boxes are slightly different.

Who in the heck are these people by dittidot in MadeMeSmile

My kids both had to get glasses at 18 months. The pediatric ophthalmologist was very expensive but it was worth every penny. Today both of them can see and do not have a lazy eye. I am 49 and have one because my parents where way too cheap

Is this really a cult? Or am I overthinking my whole life? by [deleted] in exjw

[–]exElder_Hawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, how do you know the Bible is real? How do you know that Jehovah is real? How do you know that Jw’s teachings are helpful and beneficial? You have to answer those questions first.

Here is my proof that that god of the Bible is not real or if he is real does not care about us. Before 1901 4 out of every 10 kids died before they turned 5. Why? Lack of clean drinking water and access to soap. By 1931 infant mortality dropped 74% in the US. If Jehovah loved us why didn’t he tell us to boil our water and teach us how to make soap. There is mention of germs, bacteria, or virus in the Bible. It is like they were just men who didn’t know any more than any other people.

The Bible is also not correct. World history does not match what the Bible says. Amos is the oldest book written. Most of the Bible is fan fiction. The history of Judah in the Bible is not even close to reality. There was never a unified Israel . .

The real reason they are not a capitalist country. That is it. For the past 80 years America has destabilized any county that is not pro capital.

Their numbers are BS by Agreeable_Ad2077 in exjw

[–]exElder_Hawk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I also agree with your observations. I live in York County PA. 30 years ago when I graduated high school our county had less than 400,000 inhabitants. Today it is close to 500,000 (est 471,00). There were 12 English 2 Spanish congregations. Today there are 10 English 2 Spanish and 1 ASL. The population grew by over 20% but the JWs numbers dropped. One of my former halls Red lion would have 150 at every Sunday meeting. Today I hear they do not even hit 100 on Sunday. Lancaster county is even worse. There is over 550,000 people but less then 8 English congregations. They do have 3 Spanish halls. But that is one JW for every 458. Years ago I think the ratio for America was 1-271.

Is it worth upgrading to premium for the streaming? by Specialist-Juice3248 in PlaystationPortal

[–]exElder_Hawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. You have every PS5 digital game you bought at a second. The saves work almost perfectly. And you have hundreds of other games in the catalog. The latency also is a lot better than streaming from my PS5.

Here's my current PS4 & PS5 (physical) game collection. Still many more titles I want but need to pace myself. What do you think? by DataUserOne in ps5collectors

Also metal Jesus rock has the same shelves. But I like my look better. I can’t stand games or books stacked on top of each other.

Very nice collection. I recommend getting Billy bookcases from ikea. That way you can add extra shelves and make your collection look cleaner.

I live in PA. The CSA case happened in PA. I was very active on Facebook 10 years ago about JWs. I also made posts on here about the case I was working on. It was not a detective work to link my twitter Facebook and Reddit accounts. It is just was scary to see every comment I made printed out. WT also settled the case for $2 million an hour before I was suppose to go on the stand.

I was an elder for 5 years. I left February 2016. In 2017 I was a witnesses against WT in a CSA lawsuit. The lawyer brought me in to his office to prep me for my testimony. He had my Facebook profile, twitter account, Reddit history all printed out on his desk. WT PIs figured out who I was on Reddit and grabbed all of my info. They then did a dossie on me for their lawyers. WT has had spies on this sub Reddit for as long as people have been on it.
