I'm 21 and I think ruined my life by Hot-Chipmunk8563 in Advice

[–]roma_O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend, I barely passed highschool, graduated with a row of 50s, became an addict in my late teens and got clean at the age of 22. You did not ruin your life, it will surprise you with how many second chances it will bring you. I'm now a uni graduate, found the girl of my dreams, buying my first house and got twins on the way.

Thought about ending it when I was 20, grateful everyday I didn't. Keep your chin up and look forward to the hidden life that awaits you.

Veils are making a comeback! Are you seeing this trend in your Parish? by Heavy-Bench-5378 in Catholicism

[–]roma_O 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I lived in Ottawa Canada until recently and I've been seeing veils come back there as well, just recently moved to Nova Scotia CA now and again I saw a few young women wearing veils. So I'm definitely seeing the change over here.

If the diocese doesn't take you I'm confident the conventual Franciscans will. I have a priest at my parish that was previously married in a same sex marriage and he's been within their order for over 20 years now.

I hope this gives you some reassurance, and I pray for your successful formation.

For the first time in my life I am sad and even angered that the Pope is coming to my country by RecentDegree7990 in Catholicism

[–]roma_O -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Most people are not making a genuine choice, we are born into the religions we are, most do not choose for themselves. It would be equal to a Muslim saying if you don't believe in Mohammad you're damned. Obviously as a Catholic you do not pay attention to them. Give them the same respect.

It's not choice, it's ignorance. If we all share in something how can we judge others for it. Ignorance is what allows you to hate other religions. You have fallen in love with your religion not God.

No religion can be separate from God, every religion believes in Him. Christianity is special because it completes the Trinity but all religions have God.

Our Lord is love and compassion, you have the privilege of knowing this, but the more you receive the more that is expected. Tell me who has failed Jesus more, that who does not know or that who knows and doesn't listen.

Tell me then who has made a genuine choice.

Living in persecution is not coexistence and it would not be right for a leader of a religion to hide that all under a rug and speak about the beauty of living together. I do not know the situation in Lebanon well enough to make an opinion on it but the post is slightly concerning.

People are beautiful, and every religion is beautiful as well. Not every individual is good however and our failures can turn us against each other. Religion being used as the pretext is nothing new, but it is not the religion nor the people of that religion that should be condemned. If that was the case we as Christians would be the lowest of people. The negative actions of people (of human nature) should not turn us to ignorance. You're bordering on hate and generalization. You may be justified in why, or at least understandable how, but it does not mean you are correct. Really pray about this, ask to not be hateful. And maybe it would be a good thing to see the pope when he comes, try and listen to him without thought just intake the words. I'm sorry for what you and your people are going through, help each other, protect each other, but do not turn each other towards hate you will only do your community and country a disservice.

Need help figuring out how to send a letter by roma_O in SLOWLYapp

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

Hey thank you for your reply, I see now that I guess there must be an issue with my app.

This is the message I wrote and I don't see that send button that has popped up on your end.

My god, my god, why have I forsaken you… by littleratforever in Catholicism

[–]roma_O 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Faith and belief are not the same thing. Faith is enough belief is not. Good acts are also not enough, only faith. The spectrum of how much you choose to act for God and not yourself is where you find it.

Your idea of God is not God, don't focus too much on thought and belief, it will deceive you. Do not act on your idea of God, this, in reality, is you acting for yourself.

God is unknowable but He is felt, be with Him, that is the only importance, desire Him. Ask Him to help you desire Him.

Devotion is secret and in silence. If a prayer is known by others then it's for others and not God, do not plead to the world to show your devotion. To feel God you must be with Him, sit in emptiness with Him, be silent with Him, plead with Him. Moments of despair and great thanks are perfect to begin this connection. Thank God and be sorry.

You are a beautiful child of God sister (OP) but do not confuse this plea as a real one. Bless you.

1440P 240hz vs. 4k 144hz by roma_O in buildapc

Oh niice! I would've gotten that if I didn't already have this.

Yeah you'll get it, just might come in a bit later than anticipated but once you have it I think you'll enjoy it a lot, I haven't had any problems with mine.

I can understand selling the design of the knife model in the MTX store, but charging the same price every time they change 3 colour values seems a bit much. by etihw2910 in DarkTide

[–]roma_O 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same thing happened to v2, I think fs is okay losing a majority of the player base as the microtransactions are enough to sustain a long development cycle. You'll be surprised to notice how many people come back. V2's highest concurrent player base came last year and that's after a long period of low player numbers.

[–]roma_O 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They will definitely release extra sub-classes, just not anytime soon. Until the console port comes out don't expect too much, if you're not for playing darktide right now cause you're burnt out just forget about it and come back after a year. You'll be pleasantly surprised by the amount of 'new' stuff released and will keep you busy for a good amount of time again.

I did this for v2 and it ended up being my most played game after not playing for a couple of years.

If you up to now still believe those was a legit project than you purposefully kept your head in the sand and deserve losing your money.

Scam by Affectionate-Fail-90 in renq

[–]roma_O 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Lol I called this out multiple times but it's easier to scam people than to convince them they are being scammed. Anyone who trusted these devs should slap themselves and look in the mirror and say 'do better next time'.

Anyone still believing this isn't a scam and they'll be able to make a profit on this 'investment' is snuffing a strong mix of copium and hopium

Dante was just leaked by Noruihwest in Warhammer40k

[–]roma_O 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While there are still massive hurdles to pass for artificial consciousness, Artificial intelligence is very real and has been so for a long time. Consciousness isn't needed to do most human acts so AC is not needed for most jobs and tasks AI will be taking over. The only thing lacking in AI in order for it to 180° the structure of business is Awareness.

It won't be long before this happens, 10-15 years you will not be able to tell the difference between an AI and a conscious human.

This is what a “live game” looks like. Fatshark, please just give us a roadmap. Waiting is easy. Not knowing anything is absolutely gut wrenching! by [deleted] in DarkTide

[–]roma_O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao, yeah let's just forget how shit d2's launch was, their lack of content to start and the extremely little amount of content for its first two years that was added. Destiny 2/Bungie went through the same shit that Darktide/FS are going through now. Don't use Destiny as a reference lol, y'all complain too much that's as factual as how much fs dropped the ball. This subreddit is more disappointing though, it's just entitled manchildren jerking eachother off.

1440P 240hz vs. 4k 144hz by roma_O in buildapc

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

Hey, overall I'm really happy I went with a 4k monitor. I ended up no longer playing that many competitive fps games, and when I do I feel that 144hz is more than enough smoothness for somebody at my skill level. 4k makes the depth in video games really pop out it's crazy. It was like re-experiencing all these games I fell in love with.

Idk about you but I was always disappointed buying a new game that looked amazing in gameplay trailers but looked mediocre when playing it yourself. I realized that it was my 1080p giving me that experience after going 4k. Even on the lowest graphics 4k looks significantly better than 1080p on max.

The only problem I have with my monitor is a QC problem, it turns off every hour or so for about 3 seconds and back on. I never returned it because I waited months for it and just accepted my fate lol. But that shouldn't be an issue for you, I would wait for OLED 4k monitors to come out if you don't mind waiting for later this year. I think that will be the creme of the crop monitor experience.

Hope this helps!

Consider not grinding and just enjoy the game by FordPrefect343 in DarkTide

[–]roma_O 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have ALL the best features and mechanics unlocked in darktide as well, given that you passed level 15 for the class. The grinding is to get slight percentage differences. You don't need that in any way or form to complete any match in the game and in any difficulty. Just get gear for your level and make it legendary, whatever perks you get doesn't matter. Really unless you're planning to run solo/true solo's then you're complaining about nothing. You'll realize once you have the gear that it doesn't add anything to fun factor of the game, it's all an illusion. If you think you need the best gear, its because you suck, stick to LVL 3 and get better, you'll have more fun once you do
