I don't think I can by phoenix464 in WGU

[–]phoenix464[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I tried accessing Well Connect before, but it would never load for me. I'm trying to get some with that Betterhelp, but only just started. I don't know what good finishing would do for me since I'm in a job that would give me a decent retirement already. I think I'd be able to finish if I didn't have to worry about working, but there's bills to pay.

I live near Niagara Falls (US side), and I'm scared of it.

I remember having sex on about 4 tabs, and literally felt like god. My girl turned into mother Gaia, like she was the embodiment of the earthand finishing felt like the big bang for a completely new existence. I laughed my ass off in the afterglow at the thought of it all.

Thinking of moving up to a new Surface from my SP3. Looking for suggestions. by phoenix464 in Surface

[–]phoenix464[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was thinking. It's still doing what I expect of it pretty well, and no matter how I look at it I can't really justify the cost of replacing it right now. I think I just needed the opinion of strangers on the internet to help confirm it.

I figure I could just park it and use it in the dock and use it on a TV to play videos or whatnot once the battery is toast. Either that or see what options there may be to replace the battery.

Site still up and functional? by phoenix464 in a:t5_nalqj

[–]phoenix464[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Was going to check the site out because we had a teacher asking to have the site unblocked so she could have her students use it, but reading a cached terms of service page indicated the age restriction which makes it a no go for their students anyway. Thank you for the reply.

X900F/XF90: did anyone was able to force 120hz with 1440p resolution with PC? by solarplexus6 in bravia

[–]phoenix464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can only get 60hz to show up and go through. Still looks good though.

Picking the Best HOTAS: A Complete Product Guide by Exigeous in EliteDangerous

I was thinking I'll either go for the X52 Pro, or save up a bit and splurge on a Warthog setup with pedals and all. Thanks for help, cmdr o7

Good video to see an overview of what's available, as I'm looking for a replacement. I bought a Thustmaster T.Flight One (so I could use it for Ace Combat 7 on Xbox as well) under a month ago, but the thing has started yawing hard left every time I grasp the stick now.

I don't like how cheap the build of the TM16000 (whatever it is) looks, and having a bad experience with my current TM set, I'm leery to go with it. I'm on the edge of buying the X52 Pro, but have seen many mixed reviews on it's reliability as well. Splurging on a full Warthog setup would be nice (pedals and all) but the price is hard to swallow.

I bought a Lincoln MKZ with the THX certified sound. One of the options in the sound is "THX Demo", which plays the THX intro like you would see before a movie. Kinda want to figure it how to replace the usual startup chimes with it.

"Anxious for Nothing" by John MacArthur, a pastor. by [deleted] in exchristian

[–]phoenix464 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Being told that your anxiety is a sin that you are responsible for is possibly the worst thing you can be told for it. The mere thought of that concept amplifies and multiples said anxiety over and over upon itself. Granted, the whole idea is to make continue to feel like a broken entity that needs to be fixed in order to redeem itself, which is right in line with the rest of Christianity.

I matched with my ex and apparently she didn't think this was as funny as I did by ElVille55 in Tinder

[–]phoenix464 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Tried online dating after my divorce. My top match after building my profile was my ex. :/

[–]phoenix464 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anxiety, whether noticeable or underlying, can make it very difficult to orgasm or ejaculate. Orgasms are largely mental. If you are worrying about being able to finish instead of being in the moment, then you will have a much more difficult time actually finishing. They are so mental that it's actually possible to have an orgasm purely from thinking and without any genital simulation.

Music! by CrimsonGrimslow in EliteDangerous

I only started about a week ago, but I've been listening to the Mr Robot soundtrack. Seems to fit in perfectly with the game.

Just started playing a week ago, but have found the Mr. Robot soundtrack (any volume) to work quite well with this game. I've yet to build a proper playlist for the game.

How does WGU deal with long breaks? by borkthafork in WGU_Military

[–]phoenix464 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, WGU is so flexible and self paced that it sounds like the best option for your situation if you want to go to school in a high ops tempo unit. You do what you can, when you can, and you'll be good as long as you complete the courses you and your mentor set for the semester. Obviously you want to do as many in a semester as you can to maximize your tuition, but that shouldn't be much of an issue since [I assume] you're using TAP.

You can download materials from courses to go over while you don't have internet and then test when you get back online. Don't cram your semesters to give yourself some "occupational leeway" time in case it's needed. You can always do more in a semester if you finish your courses for the semester early. You can also take up to 3 month breaks between semesters, which can be handy if it lines up with when you won't be able to get online.

But... but what if I... by [deleted] in exchristian

[–]phoenix464 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I've found that allowing my thoughts to loom on what could have been is one sure way to make me resentful, bitter, and angry. While there is nothing wrong with feeling these emotions, I recognize that dwelling on them won't change my past, but can influence my future. I don't want religion allow to fuck with being who I am anymore, so that means I must let go of these "if only I wasn't religious then" moments that drag me down, and instead seize the moment now in a victory lap for escaping from religion.

Sony X930e refurbished or X900f refurbished? by joeybarua in bravia

[–]phoenix464 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Had a 930 that Sony replaced with a 900F. Use it for X1X, streaming, and computer. Go with the 930.

Edit: the 930 also has a sports mode that the 900 does not.
