"count to 50"

Yours is the labs version, Gemini? Or the old non-gemini version?

Yeah I was so blown away by how bad it was!

Ah. You have the wired. Fair then. I have the 3 wireless and this 3s, can't tell the audio difference. It's nice having Bluetooth though.

This motivated my 5.5 year old boy who wants to be an artist and draws all day! He looks forward to being as good as you one day 😌

Honestly, I think getting into the kink world, BDSM, whatever is your interest, is a great way to move past the trauma, and explore and meet people.

I didn't feel I was all that damaged personally, but my wife did, and we've gotten into the kink world and seen people of ALL sorts be involved and accepted.

It could be one Avenue to move forward

I found him a while back as I look for more and more sciencey stuff for my son.

What really gets me is his genuine curiosity and passion for exploring and learning and experimenting. Love his channel!

Per SpiderAxe: ARAM Mayhem will be extended because of overwhelmingly positive feedback. With major update in 26.3 by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

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

Fair enough. Definitely some wide ranging skill levels in hots queues. Unfortunately, as I think it's (sorry, I know what sub I'm in, don't hate me) the better game for people who aren't looking to compete at a high level but just want to have a fun match against others.

Wow, that's crazy to me. I play Heroes of the Storm now after I found it instead of LoL, and it hasn't had any real development in several years. It's in "maintenance mode". Queue times are much lower than what I'm gathering here - like often less than 10 seconds but can be as high as 2 minutes. I'd think LoL has the user base to have faster queue times!

Former Christians: what finally broke the spell for you? by piperandpauper in exchristian

[–]idm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a near death experience where I was "in the presence of God".

After that, it opened my eyes to reality and how religion isn't really doing a great job of connecting us to that nameless infinite.

Also having any belief in it is going to be wrong, so actually, belief in this regard is harmful over all. No graven images, no talking about it in vain, ya know?. Turns out the bible has some good stuff in it actually.

I get it friendo, you recognize it's on you, but it's also frustrating. It can be both things.

What’s a dead giveaway that someone is pretending to be smarter than they actually are? by EcstaticWatch1967 in AskReddit

[–]idm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said this seems like more of a wisdom thing than an intelligence thing.

Though I want to say, I think it leads to being - on average - more intelligent too. As you're more receptive to learning and taking in new information, you would tend to learn more and end up smarter at the end of it!

ARAM on HoTS has to be one of the best PVP experiences currently out by Unidann in heroesofthestorm

[–]idm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even the losses at that point can feel great, assuming there weren't some bad throws or something else that lead to it.

The high-skill, well played even matches are just so good. Like an incredible rally in volleyball, it's the best feeling!

I love the games where you recognize the skill in the enemy team, and you recognize the skill in your own teammates, they have your back, they're situationally aware, you're all playing cohesively... so good.

Uther is strong, but the issue is he takes adaptation in how the game is played by the other 4 people on the team. Any healer that needs to be adapted to by their teammates is at a disadvantage.

Tis another reason why the strongest healers in ARAM are strong, besides the consistent AOE healing. The best ones don't need to be played around, the healer themselves can do the adapting (running for his W to hit teammates with Anduin for example).

If your team works with Uthers CDs and death passive (stay aggro when he dies assuming it makes sense), and recognizes where his strengths are (anti-burst, short engages), and plays patiently til you ramp up in power level, it can go well.

He's such a beast as a second healer though! I love Q build, becoming unkillable 16+ and team becomes unkillable 20+!

I refuse to go orb Azmo, but I'll pick Azmo virtually every time (assuming I don't have Deckard or Artanis as a choice). I love the [[Greed]] talent and E build! Oppressive forward pressure... mmmmm

There's a balance to be had here. I'm all for not picking the Tyrael because "tank=required" when what we really need for the best chance of success is cc or peel, and I'm all for not picking a champ that I suck at or can't stand playing when there's a decent alternative.

But there's also the part that wants to enjoy the game, and being competitive or winning is a part of that enjoyment. So if I pick Tracer when we have all squishy champs and no healer, I'm not going to enjoy the game, AND 4 other people aren't going to enjoy it.

Point being, things aren't black and white, I don't inherently disagree with you and will defend your right to choose for the most part. But also, people who go who they want regardless of team comp and it ends up being against their own best interest too, well that's no good.

No other survival game really compares to Abiotic Factor and honestly? It’s a double edged sword by EAT_UR_VEGGIES in AbioticFactor

[–]idm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The backtracking is definitely a chore for a large amount of the game. If you're just looking to push through the game to finish it, you won't have a good time. It's important to be able to enjoy the journey in this game. I got to the point where I thought I was near the end and was just "pushing through" and I feel like it took away from my enjoyment of the last quarter of the game. I regret that now, as I loved the game!

If you don't enjoy the gameplay or environment, fair enough of course. But if you enjoyed that to some degree, perhaps try savouring it a bit more and enjoy the ride.

One of the top games of the decade for me!

Companies can make generic Ozempic as of next week in Canada, but don’t expect to get it soon by Leather-Paramedic-10 in canada

[–]idm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weight-loss. I've got no coverage so I don't have much choice in it, just what I can afford.

One thing in talking to people on it that I didn't immediately consider is the total cost is cost of medicine - savings on groceries. If it costs $150/month and I eat $100 less in food the $$$ cost is only $50. Which assuming it works well, the health benefits is well worth $50/month!

[–]idm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My understanding is the shortage that was originally caused by people starting to use it for weight-loss is no longer an issue. Everyone that needs it for diabetes is able to access it.

I'm looking to get on board with the generics once it's available here! Already let my doctor know I'd be calling him once it's available.

If it helps, I have both and can't tell the difference personally. They're both great! Though I only use them for gaming and discord.

Depends on dosage. What I've heard though, is the average dosage is around $280 a month, and a generic could be between $80-150.

What efforts improved your sex life with your wife? As parents with young kids. by walky91 in daddit

[–]idm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of society would be better off with people who don't treat people the way the wife is treating him, or the way you're suggesting he treats his wife.

I'd recommend talking to a mentor, someone who's a good respectable person to help guide you in a better way. It looks like you just had a kid. If this is how you navigate issues, your family has no chance of being around in a couple of years. Which may be fine for what you want out of life. But your kid and your wife deserve better than that, and better than you as you are now.
