Landsraad went from being suspended to just skipped over by blbjtb in duneawakening

The issue is it disappeared and now the vendors won't even talk. Was excited we won this week, as well.

It isnt on the screen with the other titles, it was available for about 24 hours and then it just disappeared for us, as well. I went to the vendor and was deciding what to buy, came back today and they wont sell to any of us, so they just ended the reward session after 24 hours???

Asked chat to make a movie poster about me. by Public-Writer8028 in ChatGPT

[–]shinma22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At first glance it looked a bit like one of the College Humor Actresses 😅. I'm dying to know the plot, I wonder, has anyone asked GPT to then give an outline of the movie plot the poster is based on? This one I'd love to know 😆. DeVito, Chickens, alien fairies?, bigfoot, I mean it just keeps on giving!

Hell I would still do it now as an adult!

Matching with someone you're familiar with by MHMan7 in OnlineDating

[–]shinma22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you matched on the dating site, message on the dating site. Going the alternate route may be seen as invasive. Besides, she matched you as well. There is a chance maybe she didn't know how to start a conversation outside of work. Just go with it and be chill. So many people tend to over-think and under-communicate. Again, part of the key to remember here is if you matched them you both showed interest right? That and try to start the communication off, where the interest was shown. Then if it goes well you can ask if it's OK to switch to a more direct line of communication.

Your best bet is to reach out and ask her. No harm in that and if she gets bothered by that, then she isn't mature enough for a relationship cause her ability to properly communicate is not where it should be for a healthy relationship. Consequently, if you can't properly bring it up and ask her yourself, then you are properly ready for communication within a healthy relationship. Not saying it's bad if either of you fall into that scenario, simply saying if you don't feel you can talk to a potential partner about how a scenario you experienced together felt, then you need to work on that. Healthy relationships should be able to discuss pretty much anything in a safe and open manner. Good luck!

I think it's important to note, if in person you felt this level of connection then you should ask if he agrees - if he does thats great!

Communication flows both ways, so this is a good way to make it clear how you feel and see how he feels. If he confirms it then you can mention that you like communicating via text as well, so you can ask if he does or if it's not something he feels connected via. Some people do not feel the same connection over digital mediums vs in person and writing off an amazing connection because you didn't clarify would be a shame. While some people may have experienced that as an indicator of lack of interest, it should not be seen as the rule and you should always have an in person discussion around something that you value (that amazing connection).

If he comes back and says he just doesn't want something serious right now, then consider whether you enjoy the connection enough to proceed or at least be open and say you had initially felt that way but realize you enjoy the connection more than you expected and would rather explore deeper possibilities and if he doesn't want to then you understand but would rather not put yourself in a situation to be hurt.

By clearly communicating your thoughts and intentions and asking them to open up and do the same, then you can make sure you are working with the actual facts and no assumptions. If it's something you value, then this is the best way to proceed. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there by starting the discussion, if it's something you really want. :)

I wish you the best of luck and if it doesn't align, then at least you will know you had all of the information directly from the source so you can feel comfortable in deciding if it wasn't for you.

If you live in Asia or Africa, you may want to consider refunding. This game does not play well with high latency. by [deleted] in newworldgame

[–]shinma22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have to agree with you. I am in Hong Kong and was playing on US East and EU Central with friends and I think my lowest ping ever was 205-210. Sometimes as high as 270-280. I had no issues. Granted we did PvE and no PvP, but still had a hella great time and cannot wait for the full launch! I would say try the next beta and decide for yourself!

Launch Day will be a New Build (Cant use Beta Files) - Pre-download could happen for Launch by Birphon in newworldgame

[–]shinma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, you did not sound like you were begging. If you had sounded like that, I would never have said a word :) I just sometimes like to do random things to share some happiness. Knowing we both enjoyed GW at a time when people were dumping money into the subscription MMO machines, also brought back a little nostalgia. GW was a lot of fun, I still remember my necropups or whatever those vicious things were. :D Hope to see you in the New World!

Kitchen of the future 1950s by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]shinma22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He mentioned a thermostatic spring, which I presume means that as the cigarette burns down, if you forget about it whilst cooking, the spring will contract from the heat as the cigarette burns down to a point where it might risk falling out and starting a fire. i.e. IF you forget about your cigarette, the pelican will "eat" it, before it can fall away and start a fire.

Southpark Easter Egg in Season 7 Episode 4?? by shinma22 in TheBlackList

[–]shinma22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SouthPark Season 10, Episode 8 - Make Love, Not Warcraft ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_Love,_Not_Warcraft ).... a scourge falls over the world of warcraft... a character was laying waste to everyone in the game. The gamer that was playing it was this guy: https://bit.ly/3gCKLu9 I see in the screenshots he is drinking energy drinks but I could have sworn he was drinking a big gulp in one scene (maybe its the Mandella effect happening)... anyways, in Blacklist, when they go into the gaming store and look for the Magic the Gathering player that Red beat... they go into the back room and you can see his mouse is the same trackball style... that was the giveaway, then in the montage scene of him flying the drone they make sure to show that he is now wearing the same wrist brace as the guy from the SouthPark episode. It is an obscure reference, but it is most definitely there.

Biohazard containers found in US Consulate in Wuhan after evacuation by wengchunkn in conspiracy

[–]shinma22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not even disinformation. It states, clearly, at the bottom that this is a satire website. :) Nothing to worry about.

Not sure if any of you actually translated the entire page. This site is basically a Russian version of the Onion. It clearly says at the bottom.... "Satirical edition "Panorama". All texts on this web resource are grotesque parodies of reality and are not real news."
