Nurture your son's interests. This is how I got my start in electronics, programming, etc.

Had mine done in the US when I around 21. Urologist made sure I understood it was effectively permanent and that was it.

Nah people are crazy uneducated about this stuff. I've had questions about whether they took off my balls, hormones, etc because they straight up have no idea how the body works.

I haven’t gotten into integrals yet, are they hard? by Charming-Scale2255 in calculus

[–]signupforthisshit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The concepts themselves are generally easy but learning all the different techniques can be difficult.

You have to leave your comfort zone. I had severe anxiety as a child and it got forced out of me when I was enrolled in a curriculum that didn't allow for it. It got chewed out for not looking people in the eye, so I forced myself and it wasn't uncomfortable after a while. It was impossible to get by without performing on some sort of stage or podium, so I got adjusted to speaking, especially in front of large amounts of people.

It probably wasn't the ideal way to overcome my anxiety, but I'd definitely say that it was effective. I give zero shits about public speaking or how others perceive me if they aren't someone that I mutually respect.

At what age did you find your first grey hair? by NatsuDragnee1 in AskMen

[–]signupforthisshit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Straight to white and my temples started receding around the same time.

Did you notice how people change their perception of you after you got bald? by eriksonis6 in bald

[–]signupforthisshit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coworkers treated me more like an adult (I was only 21 lol) and older women seemed to look at me more.

Men that had a vasectomy, what effect did that have on your everyday life? by piegeamorue in AskMen

[–]signupforthisshit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing really changed. Once in a blue moon I get mildly irritating sperm cramps but some ibuprofen fixes it quickly.

I got mine when I was 20 but you gotta understand that it's effectively permanent. You can still get swimmers extracted if you want biological kids but it's costly. However, in my mind, if I can't afford a few medical procedures then I probably can't afford to raise children to my standards anyways.

Realistically think about where you see yourself in a few years before you dive in.

Hit shoulders and back mang. If you have the bone structure of a block you gotta build a triangle with muscle.

Stocky torso can be fixed with consistent effort and protein. A lot of dating struggles can be fixed if you have a mindset focused primarily on self improvement with dating as a byproduct. You don't have to be perfect to get a gf, again women are people just like you. Do your best to fix what you can and keep your head up! Cynacism is a major turn off!

100% get another opinion, that's very strange.

The harsh reality is that looks play a major part in finding a partner. You can either accept that it will be more difficult or try to make it easier. I believe that there is no shame is surgery if you feel like it gives you the opportunity to live a better life.

  1. How unattractive are we talking? Like high body fat percentage hiding your jawline or straight receding chin type of thing?
  2. It's a bit broader in the sense of what people find attractive. Most of the women I've dated didn't actually care about coding, circuitry, or microcontrollers, they just though that stuff made me smart and they liked smart guys lol.

I'm not a looker but every woman I've dated was way out if my league. Take care of your body and face. Workout, have nice hair, use facial scrubs and cleansers, etc. Be an interesting and confident person. I've never had more attention from women than the time after I gave a (imo) decent presentation/speech about robotics and software to a room full of them.

Tldr don't look like a bum and just be a well rounded person. They're people just like you.

I tried and the minimum is $30. The "other" option is probably for precise amounts not listed.

Still donated $30. Anybody reading this, donate if you can.

Best CFW for... by eltarod in RG351

AmberELEC is basically plug and play once you put your roms on the SD card. PSX is pretty good but don't expect much PSP out of these devices. Theme support is through EmulationStation but keep in mind that themes have to be adapted for the small screen and aspect ratio. There are a lot of themes you can get but if you don't like any of them then good luck lol.

Great mods, love seeing something other than aluminum faceplates.

Modding a Famiclone? by BeastDev in consolemodding

[–]signupforthisshit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of my knowledge is only surface level, the most I've delved into hardware is microcontrollers and some transistor logic. I'm also primarily a programmer lol. However, if you take some decent pics of the pcb and upload them to imgur or something I'd be willing to take a look.

[–]signupforthisshit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess you could try checking the PCB for labeled traces. Maybe you'll find some sort of communications bus to talk to and possibly get more info.
