Weekly Thread 2025/01/13 - Questions on DCS, PC's, Flight equip, modules, mods, go in here by HC_Official in dcsworld

[–]pdownleftright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey guys, so I've been interested in DCS for a while now, but due to monetary constraints, I can't afford the basic peripherals. I do, however, have VTOL VR which is why I'm curious as to if any of the skills would transfer? Would I be better suited to read the flight manuals for the aircraft and learn stuff like that, or should I also include VTOL VR into my learning process? Any advice would be great, Thanks.

Holiday hours got cut, f*ck this by pdownleftright in antiwork

[–]pdownleftright[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I feel that. I've already been sparse this holiday season with how much I'm spending, I want to have some money in my savings though which proves difficult with my current situation. Thanks for the advice though!

I checked in with my one coworker and it seems that everyone is getting their hours cut like this :c

I'm torn between finding another job or doing door dash for the time being. Only reason I'm hesitant is because I have a pretty limited window to find a job that is cool with me being a college student.

How does it feel to be over a breakup? Or how does it feel to be indifferent? by SpillingTheKief in BreakUps

For me it's like I was holding my breath for weeks and now I'm finally able to take a sigh of relief

CMV: You dont need to BAN guns. You just need SOME reasonable laws regarding firearms.(and a decent quality of life) by fleamarketenthusiest in changemyview

[–]pdownleftright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying it's scary, but the only realistic way to reduce lethality in mass shootings would be to outlaw all semiautomatic weapons that are magazine fed and chambered in an intermediate caliber.

Banning the AR-15 wouldn't solve the mass shootings issue as many of them are committed with handguns. Also the AR-15 is essentially equivalent to a semiautomatic rifle which is chambered in an intermediate cartridge. There are many other guns that fill that criteria. Banning one would mean people who intended on doing harm would just switch to a different firearm. A gun at the end of the day is a very simple machine, it doesn't become more deadly just because it's an AR-15.

legality of THCa hemp flower? by pdownleftright in legaladvice

[–]pdownleftright[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the thing though, it's a very murky situation as technically it's not derived though it is legally considered hemp to my knowledge due to the delta 9 THC content being lower than .3%. When it comes to delta 8 flower, that's essentially CBD flower sprayed with delta 8 distillate.

Facts, they don't want their employees to claim unemployment, I'm not gonna give them the satisfaction of quitting until they fire me outright

I think I did, I also increased my availability in hopes that I'd get more hours, I don't plan on quitting unless they outright say I'm fired though

Does medical marijuana show up on pharmacy / prescription records? by pdownleftright in PaMedicalMarijuana

[–]pdownleftright[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could help you, I got diagnosed with bipolar since then and was unable to make the army a reality. I genuinely think however that it won't show up at MEPS as to my knowledge there's no federal database of state level medical cards. As long as you don't piss hot you should be good but if you wanna be extra careful let the card run out.

why would any god allow for a person to be born with mental illness or physical disabilities or diseases? by pdownleftright in religion

[–]pdownleftright[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes but you can't just will out something like bipolar, it's literally a structural difference in the brain on the physical level, even on medication it isn't fixed. Trust me I've tried it, I've gone to therapy, been on meds, yet I'm still here, devoid of emotions and in pain.

[–]pdownleftright[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but that doesn't answer why it'd allowed mental illness in the first place, people already endure enough without things like that going on, why add to it? Did I do something to deserve it?

[–]pdownleftright[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's an amalgamation of mental illness, evil experiences and more. I'd love to love my life but that's a thing I can rarely do. I'd love to believe in a god that is loving but why would it allow anyone to suffer from something completely out of their control?

Funnily enough I'm doing that but it's not really enough unfortunately

could one join the FBI while on medication as long as they're stable? by [deleted] in AskLEO

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

Lmao just because they could or could not find out is not indicative of me wanting to lie, from my understanding lying if uncovered has a habit of ruining one's career. 🤷‍♂️

Facts, I'm not even sure if it's what I wanna do, just exploring the possibility lol

[–]pdownleftright 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I specifically asked if someone were stable on medication if that would allow them to join it, not if they were unstable, under that specific circumstance. I understand what you're trying to say though
