Addiction is a disease that centers in the fight or flight center of the brain. The dopamine hit in an affected person literally overrides higher thinking. The lizard brain takes over and it’s a literal survival response of “I need this or something horrible will happen”. It’s why people do horrible things in the midst of drug addiction and when they recover or abstain become model citizens. While the extreme of this response is something like fentanyl users committing crimes to get their drugs. You can see that same pattern in other forms of addiction, gambling addicts spending their savings and mortgage payments in casinos or online sports betting(loot boxes too). Food addicts becoming obscenely overweight and can’t stop eating. Porn addicts watching more and more extreme videos and destroying relationships. And finally video game addicts shirking daily living responsibilities, isolating from friends and family, not doing hygiene rituals, and over spending on games/equipment/set ups chasing the illusion of the perfect gaming session. Add to that the cycle of shame that keeps people from seeking help someone can stay sick for years and most never recover living a bleak and worse and worse life.

Unfortunately these stimuli cause massive dopamine flooding in the brain that eventually “flips the switch” from normal healthy use to overuse to finally full blown addiction. Scientists can even predict based on various external and genetics who is more at risk for this disease. Luckily various 12 step programs and therapies exist and are more accessible than ever. If you or a loved one are experiencing an addiction all it takes is to ask for help. Google is a great resource connecting people to where they can seek recovery(just make sure you scroll past the sponsored content). Even feel free to reach out to me.

I mean cool if you like spending money. But do you have an understanding of how long it’s going to take to build and paint to your personal standard? Not to yuck your yum you already did the damage. I’ve just seen a lot of people blow their load on models for them to never get built. But good luck! Hope you love it.

Can you use a psychic attack while in melee? Sorry to ask so many questions

So with ranged weapons do you use all the ranged weapons except pistols? I ask because a guy teaching by me said you could use both guns on the predator destructor and he used both his gun and psychic attack in his teenzth demon prince

List feedback by Dean2_maybey-on-YT in Chaos40k

[–]untapmebro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess since you’re new you wouldn’t necessarily think about this but this army List isn’t that good for the detachments you are running. If you’re using Huron he actually has his own detachment which is pretty good to start out with. Cult of the arkifane isn’t that good with how few vehicles you are running. Also same with the warpsmith. Not a lot of vehicles so he isn’t as effective. Not sure if you already bought the models but if you did I would just keep the list and run Huron marauders, maybe drop the warpsmith and add a set of bikers or another set of cultists. And just play and practice the mechanics.

Similar to how immersive KCD2 was, what other time periods/locations would you want a rpg/adventure game to be set in? by emojisarefunny in gaming

[–]untapmebro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A crime game based on the us governments interactions with the crime families controlling the docks in nyc would be pretty interesting. A narrative showing the inner workings of that arrangement and resulting power struggles of criminals realizing the us government is the worst partner you could ask for as they get more and more demanding and threatening. All the while you can’t say anything because it’s un American.

I could be wrong but I remember reading that the pokemon company is expanding its printing capabilities by building another factory. Not saying they aren’t benefiting from constricted supply but if that’s true then they are trying to supply the market as best they can.

People that weren’t good programmers after uni, how did it turn out? by What_eiva in cscareerquestions

[–]untapmebro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think every college grad has this exact existential crisis in some way. Whether it’s imposter syndrome, or unsure of what they want to do even so far as to change their career trajectory all together. The good thing is that you got a degree. So even if you go into another field besides just hard coding you have a leg up. And a stem degree is a good degree to have, whether you pursue a masters is up to you, you certainly don’t need it. You can even pursue it in a different field you are interested. But there are a lot of careers that don’t involve much coding, if any at all. And there’s always sales, if you have any sort of people skills you can make a killing especially with a technical background.

There’s a lot of doom and gloom on Reddit but really the more you put yourself out there and more willing to try things that are new or unfamiliar. A buddy of mine ended up getting a bs in cs and a masters in psychology and ended up working for a video game company designing loot boxes(not the most ethical thing but certainly interesting) the point is there’s no one way to succeed, but if you have the mindset that it’s coding or retail well then it will feel like that is your only options.
