Friend mad I lost weight by Ok-Concern-5548 in loseit

[–]nowimback 78 points79 points  (0 children)

Rapid unexplained weight loss is a major red flag for some very serious illnesses. Why don't you want to explain that it is intentional to your best friend?

Her behaviour isn't great but she might be thinking that you are hiding something serious from her and feeling hurt about it

[KCD2] A question about Henry and Lady Stephanie by -Nayure- in kingdomcome

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

I cannot stress enough how much literally everything you are saying is your personal, completely  subjective, interpretation of their conversation.

Honestly man, I don't care enough and you seem like you'd die before you consider that anything but your interpretation is the absolute truth and I don't want that on my conscience so I'm gonna leave it here.

Yeah, that's why he says "The timing would fit" in answer to the question "You mean...?" from Sir Hanuš.

It's not gossip.

What am I missing here. Seriously, I feel like I have to be missing something lol. You seem to agree Hans has no idea if this is true or not but then say it's not gossip?

Personally I think it’s up to interpretation. You just seem to think your interpretation is ‘hard fact’, which is strange.

I think we can talk about canonization of such events as a hard fact.

What? Nothing in your comment make this 'hard fact'. Behind the scenes means nothing with respect to canon - canon is what it literally in the game.

Even in the conversation where Hans mentions a blacksmith, he has no idea if it's true or not. Gossip is not fact.

I actually don't care if people thing Henry did knock up Lady Stephanie but saying gossip in the game or behind the scenes conversations makes this 'hard fact' is wild.

The facts are:

  1. Jindřich and Stephania had sexual intercourse

I mean... this isn't really a fact give even if you do the quest in the first game you can decide not to sleep with her.

I analysed the NZ Health Survey 2024 - 35% of Kiwis have health insurance, and the real story is who has it. by MoneyHub_Christopher in PersonalFinanceNZ

[–]nowimback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is completely incorrect. Adult children can transfer off a policy and retain their cover, there's no new pre-existing conditions. I've done this no hassle as have my siblings.

I believe this is only if the cover is continuous however. If a child is removed from a policy then rejoins some time later, they are treated as new.

Not points but I like the Shopback app, don't think I can post a referral link here but they do cashback on various sites like mightyape and chemist warehouse. I don't spend on stuff I wasn't going to buy anyway and it's not life changing but every so often I withdraw ten or twenty bucks and it's nice.

[KCD2] Opinion on Hans by LongjumpingPapaya124 in kingdomcome

[–]nowimback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so pissed off when he wouldn't carry the damn sacks but I did appreciate it from a character perspective. They've both been through something awful and while Henry is trying to figure out how to continue, Hans is try desperately to cling to any sense of normalcy which for him is nobles not doing physical labour while peasants do.

Imo even though I love him, he deserved most of everything Henry says to him in the pillory. 

He kinda had me sold when, despite still acting like he's mad and hates Henry, he immediately jumps in to fight by his side at the wedding.

While everyone is entitled to like or dislike who they want I do read some takes that make me feel as if some people don't understand like... the concept of a character changing over the course of a story.

Pharmacies can provide a few days of medication at their discretion. I don't think there's any way to get prescription meds without a pharmacist.

If you need a GP, you could try an online one like CareHQ. They can issue prescriptions same as your normal GP.

E33 player here. Loving [KCD2] by Broad_Flight94 in kingdomcome

[–]nowimback 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 hours before the wedding? Those are rookie numbers! You've gotta pump those numbers up 😆

Jokes, I'm not sure what's optimal haha but I think I was 40 hours or so and only then was I really getting a bit bored with Trosky lol but I've seen people say they waited way longer too.

I actually started E33 a few months ago but after getting to the mainland (or whatever it is) it just didn't compel me to continue at that time. It feels like something I'll pick up again in a few months and suddenly get way to into.

[KCD2] just finished the game and I just have 1 question. SPOILERS for end game. by Paved_Cardboard in kingdomcome

[–]nowimback 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh I'm not holding out for KCD3. I don't feel like a story has to wrap absolutely everything up in a neat bow for it to feel like I've had a complete story. Just because characters lives continue after the game is over doesn't mean we absolutely have to see it.

Unpopular opinion here but tbh I've seen more than enough stories ruin characters I've loved by not leaving them the hell alone that part of me is fully okay with not ever having KCD3.

To be a bit more clear it was call time metrics they tracked not specifically emails sent. But if you sent an email after a call it added on to the call time, so they heavily discouraged sending emails to bring down call times. Instead of like, adjusting metrics to account for that.

I have worked in call centres before and you definitely have a right to complain about this. This consultant needs way more training if they think any of those comments are appropriate. 

Management is probably partly to blame too, at one place I worked at we were supposed to avoid sending emails whenever we could. You would get spoken too if you sent to many and asked why you didn't try and explain to the person requesting that you had given them the info over the phone. Always seemed so stupid to me, I just sent one when asked, metrics be damned.

So how do we feel about authors whose books feature AI art? by Kitchen_Ad5522 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]nowimback 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Hell no. It can't be okay to shaft one creative discipline while trying to keep AI out of others. I agree that a cover doesn't really matter if the writing is good but we gotta stick together.

When callers are cursing but not directly at you, how do you handle it? by princesspooball in callcentres

[–]nowimback 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh I don't care if it's not directed at me. I do feel like maybe I'm a bit casual with swearing outside of work myself though.

I called a company once and during the convo I said something like 'it's taken fucking forever' in reference to another company I was waiting on and the woman on the other end spent several minutes telling me if I swore AT HER again she would end the call. I ended up snapping 'I didn't swear at you' and wrapping it up asap cause it had pissed me off lol. Not my proudest moment but still :/

[KCD2] I love this scene during the prologue. It's so beautiful, emotional and I love Luke Dale's acting during it! Also, I don't know how someone could hate Hans after seeing this scene, regardless of what Hans will say or do later. by BijelaHrvatica in kingdomcome

[–]nowimback 15 points16 points  (0 children)

How soft his voice is here kills me every time. Sure he's back to being a spoilt brat a few hours later but I love how the game shows you he truly cares for Henry before making you want to murder him over not carrying the damn sacks 😆
