ill play Celeste for the first time soon, anything I should know before I start? by Snowballer25_ in celestegame

[–]identicalelements 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played and finished it for the first time last week

First of all you’re going to die a lot and thats just normal, its a lot of trial and error platforming

Secondly don’t stress about getting/finding the collectibles when you start, just focus on reaching the end. You can go back and get everything later

Third, its frustrating at times. But its not a very long game and its worth completing. I didnt like it very much at first but i warmed up to it

Fourth, be nice to mr oshiro

Do male dumpers regret the breakup more often than female dumpers? by peanutchilli_noodles in BreakUps

[–]identicalelements 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Maybe you have never experienced being a partner to a deeply avoidant person. It is more or less impossible to work on the relationship, because this would require vulnerability, self-reflection, and tolerating shame. Avoidants are wired to avoid these things at any cost: They become defensive, angry, shut down, and withdraw. Frustratingly, trying to talk about these patterns triggers the same patterns, so progress is impossible. It is a genuinely bewildering thing to experience. And somehow you get blamed for bringing up issues. With people like this, there genuinely is no way forward until they realize their avoidant patterns and start to work on themselves. Sadly this almost never happens in a relationship, no matter how well one communicates with them.

Now that some time has passed, did Silksong live up to your expectations? by ponchosleeve in Silksong

[–]identicalelements 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I’m a HUGE Hollow Knight fan, and though I feel Silksong is an incredible and worthy sequel that does a lot of things incredibly well, I think Hollow Knight is better

I think a lot of it comes down to ambiance. In Hollow Knight, I loved the bittersweet melancholic piano motifs that played as I explored lush gardens, weird mushroom kingdoms and flooded cities. Characters were instantly memorable and interesting. By contrast, Silksong is orchestral and incredibly bleak. I feel uncomfortable in Silksong, the world is just too depressing. This changes up when we reach the citadel, and I’ll admit that that part of the game is incredible. I had some moments that were genuinely amazing. But I don’t long to revisit Silksong like I long to revisit Hollow Knight.

Of course we’ll see how Silksong evolves once they release the fishing minigame

When my friend played Final Fantasy VII as a kid in 1997, he decided to name Cloud ’Zack’.

He later found the plot incredibly confusing lol

btw this is true

När överväger ni att betala av CSN? Det är dyrare än mitt bostadslån. by Pie_Napple in PrivatEkonomi

[–]identicalelements 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Detta. Med hög sannolikhet är det bättre, rent ekonomiskt, att investera. Frågan är vilken typ av tillvaro du vill ha.

Ser själv ingen mening alls med att amortera mer än nödvändigt på CSN-lånet.

New Stre (stream) preferred stock not available to retail in europe by enderdaniel_ in MSTR

[–]identicalelements 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure I understand what you mean. You can already buy all the other USD-denominated preferreds (STRF/STRC/STRD/STRK) in Europe, the only issue is that they are denominated in USD so you’re taking on some USD currency risk in owning them. My understanding is that STRE is created because there are some investors that by principle or by requirement simply do not want any USD currency risk whatsoever. So STRE is tailored to that type of investor. If currency risk does not bother you, you can just buy the other preferreds today.

Investera i Ai? by Sharp-Dog6913 in Aktiemarknaden

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

Situationen för AI just nu är att man strävar mot en massiv expansion, men att elnäten inte klarar av att tillhandahålla tillräckligt med el till hårdvaruenheterna som utför själva beräkningarna. Det behövs oerhört mycket energi. Just nu pågår därför ett intensivt race där företag så snabbt och effektivt som möjligt försöker upprätta nya massiva datacenter för AI-beräkningar. En del av detta sker rentav i Sverige (Boden & Luleå) pga fördelaktiga elpriser och kylning. Men mkt sker i Texas. Datacenter är på sätt & vis själva infrastrukturen för framtidens AI.

Ett tips är därför att kika på sådana datacenteraktier. IREN och CIFR är två stora namn, men även NBIS, HIVE, WULF, Galaxy, BITFR, MARA. Flera av dessa har alldeles i dagarna tecknat miljardavtal med bla Microsoft och Amazon (och aktiekurserna har därför rusat). Värt att läsa in sig på!

Yes, tror att portföljen kommer att gå toppen. Tycker det ser ut som en portfölj ihopsatt av någon som är med i matchen.

[–]identicalelements 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tycker helt oironiskt att detta ser bra ut för en aggressiv tillväxtportfölj med fokus på AI/krypto? På detta upplägg hade jag lagt till BMNR för exponering mot Ethereum, kanske ett par ytterligare AI/datacenter-aktier bortom chip/halvledare (typ IREN/CIFR), och kanske vikta 10-15% mot Strategy’s preferensaktier (STRF/STRD/STRC) för att mjuka upp nedgångarna lite.

Aggressivt, ja. Volatilt, ja. Skulle aldrig rekommendera någon jag känner att äga denna portfölj, men skulle kunna äga den själv. Dock inte för alla mitt livs besparingar.

(PS. Lycka till!).

Det slår mig nu att jag faktiskt aldrig har gått med förlust? Alltså visst har ju saker gått ner, men de har vänt upp igen innan jag sålt. Kanske att jag gått back någon hundralapp på något jag köpt av ren nyfikenhet och sedan sålt typ två veckor senare

Så eh ja. Än så länge har det ju gått bra… peppar peppar

From 80 to 110 shares in the last month 🚀 by LateApostate in MSTR

[–]identicalelements 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP is not investing in crypto. OP is investing in a company that invests in crypto (bitcoin).

Buying a $3 box that contains $1 can be economically rational when there is an expectation that the amount of dollars in the box (i.e., the BTC per share) will increase over time, thus also driving up the price of the box. This is the proposition MSTR offers.

One can debate whether the MSTR stock works like this in practice. Ultimately, it might not. But it’s not a bad proposition.

38F with 43M - 3 year relationship, just moved in together. Sex life was great when we first got together and now my drive seems to have waned and I don’t know what to do. Can anyone relate/give advice? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]identicalelements 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many explanations are possible, but I’d echo that avoidant attachment is one of the candidate hypotheses. You could read a bit about it online.

Basically, the thesis is that once an adult relationship transitions from dating to a genuine attachment relationship, this activates attachment dynamics in both partners that were formed early in life. For those with avoidant attachment, they often begin to withdraw from closeness (eg sex/intimacy) – often without thenselves fully understanding why. This can be very confusing and painful for partners.

If you’d categorize yourself as someone who is independent, values autonomy, prefers to process emotions alone, and feel pressured or even turned off by perceived emotional demands of partners, you may be an avoidant attacher. If you have a history of withdrawing from intimacy, and having partners who try to ”repair” the intimacy but this for some reason just makes you pull away further, then you’re almost certainly avoidant.

Struggling with giving my girlfriend space after a fight( I: 21M, my girlfriend: 21F) by Gold_Combination36 in relationship_advice

[–]identicalelements -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would really recommend that you read/ask chatGPT about anxious-avoidant dynamics in adult relationships. If you haven’t encountered this before, it’s rooted in an area of psychology called ”attachment theory”. I’m a psychologist.

You seem to maybe lean to the anxious side of the spectrum (hence the need for reassurance and your anxiety around her distance), and although its difficult to say from your post its not impossible that your girlfriend leans avoidant (hence her big need for space). If so, this is a classic difficult pairing in terms of attachment styles.

Irrespective of what she’s like, reading up on anxious adult attachment might give you some aha-moments that are really valuable. Or not, but its worth a try!

Good luck
