2024.05.15 01:05 Mainestrone [Flash] [2000s] Online game by SOS Children's Village

Platform(s): Online
Genre: Third person 2D, Top down, Educational game
Estimated year of release: Mid-to-late 2000s
Graphics/art style: cartoony, very colorful, may have taken place in fall due to brown leaves lying on the ground, the background colours were light or dark depending on the in-game time, character lines appeared in big speech bubbles
Notable characters: Several school-aged children and adult caretakers
Notable gameplay mechanics: Very simple, arrow keys to explore your surrondings, space bar to trigger conversations and mouse to play minigames
Other details: Even though I played the game on a German gaming website, it was in English and advertised an international child welfare organisation. Judging by the blue logo popping up occasionally, I assume it was SOS Children's Village. The MC (you could chose their gender and ethnicity) lived in a housing facility with other children and some adult custodians. When you talked to the characters, they urged you to get informed about children in need. I remember five minigames: Picking up apples falling from a tree, raking up leaves, putting paper in a wastebasket, throwing basketballs through a hoop and solving simple jigsaw puzzles that consisted of pictures of real-life children. You could also drive to school via bus.

2024.05.15 01:00 rmarden Your success in life will be determined by your ability to do -this-

I was talking about this with a friend last week and it really got me thinking.
In 2024, we are surrounded by technology of all kinds. And for many of you reading this, your formative years were shaped by this technology.
As a middle millennial in his early 30s, I've seen the world pre and post-technological advances.
I saw what it was like when smartphones exploded onto the scene. I saw what it was like when "everybody" said you just "had" to be on social media. I saw when people were embracing these things wholesale because technology = progress.
Or at least, that's what we all collectively thought back in the 2010s.
My 20s were largely in the 2010s and I saw many of my friends and peers fall into varying degrees of Internet addiction, social media addiction, gaming addiction and so forth.
I myself had varying degrees of addiction to varying things and I can say without a doubt that it has made me less successful than I could have been.
I have a great life now, I make great money, I date great women. But I can only trace that to being willing to disconnect from technology for extended periods of time. If I did it a lot sooner, I would have probably been on my path of success a lot sooner.
I realized this but I didn't want to do it when I first realized it. It took me several more years of pain and frustration that I had to ask myself "am I really spending my time wisely?" And the answer to that question was a flat out "NO". I wasn't spending time on the things that would really increase my life.
Instead, I spent it on chronic gaming, chronic fapping, chronic scrolling, chronic being an NPC in my own life.
And you might say "I can have these things without having to give up my devices". And probably you might be. You might be one of those people who just happens to stroll right into having a good life, like someone walking into a hotel lobby.
But you cannot deny the fact that it is too easy to spend days of your life doing nothing but clicking, scrolling, watching, etc.
And life is not on your screen. It's not in your little comfortable room where you're surrounded by you being able to push a button and get what you want for the moment.
Because when you are so accustomed to getting what you want in real time, it erodes your ability to get and do things in real life.
Your social skills lag. Your ability to resolve conflicts lag. Your dating abilities lag. Your ability to read and comprehend dense material lags. Your ability to participate in the larger world around you lags. So many things are affected by your unrestricted use of technology.
You essentially breed weakness in yourself.
My suggestion is to limit your technological interaction to such a degree where you are FORCED to do things in the real world.
So many ways to put a wall between you and technology, which will suck up your time and return little if nothing back.
Instead, engage in real life.
Yes, it is scary. Yes it is anxiety-inducing.
But this is how humans have lived ever since our ancestors were in small tribes.
Life is an anxiety-inducing affair. Things don't always go your way. You may have to wait before you do something or achieve something. You will most likely have to work hard to get the things you want in life. You will have to communicate and express yourself properly if you want to get your needs met. You will have to step outside your comfort zone.
Life is not something you can be shielded from or coddled away from. It is something that must be lived and faced everyday.
And your ability to live well in 2024 will be detrimentally affected by how fixated and addicted you are to technology.

2024.05.15 01:00 SabyZ Anime English Dub to Reading Manga: Looking for Advice

Hi!
I'm a dub watcher, having started in 2020 at the start of the Pandemic. The temptation to read the manga has always been on the back of my mind but I always told myself that I would read once the Dub caught up with the main series. Well with the dub having just reached Gear 5 and Episode 1073, we should only have one batch of episodes to release to complete Wano and this feels as good of a time as any to start reading the manga.
I already know that the last chapter of Wano is 1055 so once I finish that in the anime I believe I should start with chapter 1056.
What I was hoping for is some advice on what the transition might be like. And if anyone has possibly had a similar experience to me on this matter.
For example: I keep seeing the term Yonko thrown around while I know the rank/position/term as "Emperor" or "Emperor of the Sea". Are there any other terms that the manga translations use that I might not recognize as someone who has experienced this story through Funimation's translation? I plan on reading through Viz, if this makes a difference from the scanlations.
Are there any significant plot differences between the Manga and Anime that I should be aware of? I understand that the cover stories have extra content like Bon Clay's survival. But is there some big change that I would have missed being anime only?
I don't read a lot of manga, but I know I'll need to read from right to left!
And in general I'm just fishing for some advice on having the smoothest transition from English Dub Anime to reading the Manga. Gear 5 blew the internet up and while I avoided its spoilers the best I could, knowing that it existed was unavoidable. Even now with Egghead stuff, it percolates through social media enough that I'm intrigued. And ultimately I want to be right at the front and find out what the One Piece is with the world instead of waiting weeks or even months, depending on what Crunchyroll's plan is for dubbing once they've caught up.
Thanks in advance!

2024.05.15 00:47 ThrowRA_bgm My professor might fail me simply because they don’t like me

I’m graduating this semester and I’m doing well in all of my classes except one. I figured I’d reach out and write a very nice and professional email asking the professor if there was any way I could bring up my grade as I’m just a few points off from passing, but understood if it’s a hard no, but wanted to reach out and give it a shot anyway (as any student would) Well, as expected, it was a no (no biggie, professor said it wouldn’t be fair to the other students/would make a “joke” of the class and that I should’ve dropped it in the beginning which I completely understood but also sort of insinuated that they don’t believe I deserve to pass anyway? I did all of the assignments and quizzes, I just barely showed up to class as it was just the prof reading off of PowerPoints and all materials were posted online anyway). I then sent another nice email saying that I understood, and that it was okay since from my understanding, if I got at least a 70 on the paper and a 70 on the final, I’d pass, and I asked for clarification that this information is correct. I then got a super passive aggressive email back from the professor in which they basically questioned my intelligence lol, I didn’t respond. The professor was really nice up until I sent that first email, and now I worry that they’d purposefully give me a lower than 70 grade on both the final and paper, causing me to not pass as they sort of insinuated in their first response that they don’t think I deserved to pass. It won’t be the end of the world if I fail cause I don’t need this class to graduate, but it will affect my gpa and boy will that suck.

2024.05.15 00:35 Yashvi_Malhotra Why does he hate me so much?

His email to me about a paper draft I shared
Sorry but this is so bad I can’t even read it. It’s really terrible. None of the lessons learned in the previous paper development seem to have been retained, and all of the advice I’ve given you on how to make a coherent paper seems to have been discarded.
I can’t justify reading this beyond what I’ve done so far. I spent about an hour on page 1 and it is in good shape after I removed 50% or so of your words and rearranged the rest.
The methods section just seems like you randomly cut paragraphs from 10 different vaguely related papers and dumped them into a single section with no subsections, no organization, and no attempt to actually communicate with a reader. Without exaggeration, I feel insulted that you gave this to me to read and you think my time is of such little value. If you want to complete this paper, organize your thoughts in a way that someone other than you might have a chance of knowing what you are talking about. This manuscript shows a severe immaturity that in my opinion would preclude you from running around the world with PhD behind your name.

2024.05.15 00:34 Silent_Seaker93 Living in America ( Part 1)

Sorry for my grammar and spelling mistakes. English is my second language.
I never thought I’ll come and live here in America . Always had dreams of living in Cyprus and just living close to the ocean. But your plans aren’t always what needs to happen. Will be in the USA for 8 years now this year . Never planed on it to be honest.
My first year was very interesting . Made new friends and could not believe that people don’t lock their homes and cars around here . It’s a very small town up in Wisconsin.
Never thought that there was a place like Wisconsin .
What is interesting to be honest, I look back on those years and I actually feel stupid. Why did I not keep on doing the visa program, but have to say I was young, dumb and in love with the wrong guy.
I never thought of this but today I’m sitting by my kitchen table and wishing I would have never done it . But I have to say I’m married now and I’m very happy with my husband. Would probably have never met him if I stayed here . He is from France studying here on a visa .
Of course we could not get married on paper but we did what we could. If we do that we will both be send out of the country because I don’t have citizenship ( I’m on an asylum ) and he is here to study. Makes stuff very difficult but it’s oky . We go through everything. That’s one thing I have learned, never be to comfortable and always be ready to change your plans and mindset. Not the easiest but that’s what the United States have taught me.

2024.05.15 00:30 Temporary-Driver-772 Devil's Bargain Counter

Reflecting on 2021, truly marked the zenith of my young career. The pandemic was coming to an end, I was fresh from the hallowed halls of a prestigious but unheralded college, thrust into the corporate labyrinth where, as a mere sidekick to the big shots, I contributed to a deal of record-breaking magnitude. My modest corporate minion life was exaggerated into legend by my professors during an alumni reunion, leading to a rather embarrassing episode where I was paraded around as the poster child of their education career’s success. My parents, not ones to shy away from a bit of pomp, lauded my achievements to anyone within earshot.
But as 2022 unfurled its chaos with the epidemic, my professional life spiralled downwards as swiftly as it had risen. I was laid off, and replaced by a nepotistic hire—my boss's new mistress's nephew. During my dismal final days, my colleagues, once comrades became corporate sharks, whispers of them scheming to claim my last efforts as their own filled the empty office spaces.
Compelled by financial duress to abandon my central city dwelling, I relocated to the outskirts with two college mates, Jaz and Kath, who had similarly found themselves victims of the economic downturn. We settled into apartment 606, a unit with dubious charm, suspiciously affordable on the 13th floor of a dreary building, its corridor haunted by a flickering sensor light that was only designed to function on rare occasions. Yet, the apartment itself was surprisingly very well furnished, almost like something that jumped out from a design mag, out beating sample rooms in Ikea, boasting a spacious balcony, a living room ready for an impromptu soirée, a dining table that’s good enough to hold a banquet(became our co-working space) and a kitchen isle that became our sanctuary and curse.
When we first settled into our new abode, we discovered a trove of fine kitchen utensils, perfect for whipping up sophisticated cuisine and crafting cocktails worthy of a swanky soirée. Tucked away in the fridge, among the remnants of the previous tenants' life, was a quaint note: “The three of us really enjoyed our stay here, especially our meals and nights spent by the kitchen island. We hope you find as much joy in it as we did. Use it well.” With a casual flick of my wrist, I dismissed the note into the garbage can, oblivious to the depth of its seemingly innocuous message. Little did I know, that piece of paper was more a passing of the torch than a simple goodbye.
Our initial days in apartment 606 brimmed with camaraderie and impromptu celebrations: movie nights sprawled on the living room sofas, barbeque dinners under the stars on our balcony, and co-working sessions at the dining table, peppered with resume tweaks and contemplative conversations over cocktails. We even scored a second-hand karaoke machine, allowing me to channel my inner diva—a throwback to my musical theatre days in college and my stint as the voice of corporate presentations and negotiations at my previous job, where I was known for my resonant yet finely tuned voice.
Yet, as the months wore on and the job market remained unyielding, our early merriment slowly surrendered to a creeping anxiety. The kitchen island, once the heart of our home where laughter and shared meals flowed freely, gradually morphed into the epicenter of our collective unease, bearing silent witness to the quiet desperation settling over us.
One evening, in the suspiciously affordable yet stylish apartment, I sank into the sofa, my spirits dampened by my favorite team's disheartening loss. The mood was grim, mirroring my fears of my beloved player's potential retirement at season's end. Later, as we congregated around the kitchen island for dinner, I transformed into an impromptu sports commentator, passionately preaching about the game’s disappointing details that led to failure and my favorite player’s fine qualities. Meanwhile, Jaz updated us on a friend's melodramatic breakup, with guesses that something ugly must have happened behind the scenes. Kath, ever the culinary enthusiast, not only served up her delicious pasta but also dished out the latest celebrity gossip, each tidbit as spicy as her sauce.
The next day, during a late breakfast at the same kitchen island—our unwitting oracle—we were hit by a triple whammy of reality checks. The news of my favorite player's retirement broke, echoing my gloomy predictions from the night before. Jaz chimed in with an update that our friend had uncovered a cheating scandal worthy of its own reality TV special. And Kath, never one to be left out of the drama: her favorite celebrity was now the star of a scandal.
By the third morning, as we sipped our coffee, the newspaper slapped me with another bizarre twist. I was going through the devastating economics and politics sections, then I saw the sports section——featured an irate coach, hell-bent on convincing my favorite player to dismiss retirement plans and keep his jersey on a little longer. Meanwhile, Jaz had good news for a change: it turned out our friend's love story might have a second act after all, as misunderstandings were being cleared up. Amidst these revelations, Kath, who had been grumbling about the nearby supermarket’s inability to stock anything remotely gourmet, and hadn’t had a taste of her favorite Blue Mountain coffee since the beginning of that year, triumphantly found a can of Blue Mountain coffee, and it was on sale and therefore affordable—proof that miracles happen, and sometimes they even go on discount.
As I sat there, absorbing the serendipity of our discussions manifesting into real-world events, I couldn't help but marvel at the mysterious knack of our kitchen island. Was it merely a coincidence, or had this stylish piece of decor become the unlikely conductor of our lives symphony? One thing was certain: life in apartment 606 was never dull, and our kitchen island seemed to be more than just a place to eat—it was a place where, apparently, you could stir the pot of fate.
I decided to conduct a whimsical experiment with our now seemingly magical kitchen island. Clearing my throat theatrically, I declared, "I should be interviewed for a director position." To my sheer astonishment, the next day a headhunter rang me up, claiming I was the ideal candidate for a directorial role at a prestigious corporation in my field. Despite the other candidates possessing decades more experience which defeated me with no effort, and my own lingering self-doubt from months of unemployment, I sailed to the final interview round with the company's executives.
Upon returning to our apartment, I found Kath flaunting a chic dress from a designer brand brand she’d snagged on clearance—a little luxury courtesy of our wish-granting island. Inspired, I approached the island and cheekily requested, "Get us jobs. Something fun." Lo and behold, the following day was spent lounging and binge-watching Netflix, only to be interrupted by a call from a former bigwig at my old job. He was venturing into a more illustrious company and wanted me onboard. The informal chat that followed was a breeze, and just like that, I was back in the game with a fancier title and a fatter paycheck.
The subsequent week was a flurry of celebrations. Jaz secured a senior-level position, and Kath landed her dream job at an influencer management agency. Feeling triumphant, we decided to indulge in a night of fine dining—our first in months. That Friday evening when I went from office to restaurant, on a whim, stopped at a convenience store to grab snacks and cigarettes for our post-dinner revelry. Outside, I encountered a homeless person. After offering him a sandwich (which he traded for a cigarette instead), he took a drag, peered into my eyes, and ominously muttered, “Look, young lady, this isn’t my business, but be wary of what you wish for; everything comes with a price. Good luck and god bless you.”
His words barely registered until later that evening when a mishap occurred that seemed to underline his warning. As we enjoyed syphon coffee post-dinner, a barista accidentally tripped over Kath’s flowing dress. The resulting spill left her with first-degree burns, abruptly ending our night as we rushed to the emergency room. Though it was "just" a first-degree burn, the pain was significant enough to require several days off for Kath’s recovery. Amid the drama, I couldn't help but wonder about the cryptic caution from the man outside the store—had our fortunate streak come with a hidden cost?
We chalked up the coffee calamity to bad luck. The next month flowed smoothly: Kath's fingers healed, she returned to work, and I quickly found my groove at the new job. With all of us gainfully employed, our communal meals at the kitchen island became rare. My mornings were a whirlwind of grabbing breakfast and coffee on the go, followed by an hour's commute to a job that had me scarfing down instant noodles by nightfall, just in time for a quick shower.
As the busy season kicked in, my workload ballooned—not just from the seasonal uptick, but because I was hell-bent on proving my mettle. I quickly outshone most of my peers, and my employer, recognizing a budding overachiever, piled on major tasks, which I eagerly accepted. What started as the occasional hour of overtime soon devoured my weekends. Unpaid overtime, as the fine print in my contract gleefully noted, became my new norm. Driven by a mix of ambition and expectation, I had become the go-to young hotshot, the erstwhile record-breaker now expected to continually outdo myself.
Mentally, I was too swamped to entertain thoughts of anything beyond work, which, in a twisted way, felt like a break. Physically, however, the strain began to show. A bout of flu caught on a business trip escalated into a fever. Sick as I was, deadlines waited for no one, and I soldiered on medicated and miserable. By the time I made it home, my voice had abandoned me. Unable to utter a word the next morning, I resorted to emailing my manager about my sorry state.
That week, robbed of my voice, I mused that it was perhaps a well-deserved hiatus for my overworked vocal cords—a silent retreat if you will. But when my voice did return, it was as a raspy whisper, a shadow of its former crisp and melodious timbre. My doctor offered a grim prognosis: slight improvement might come, but the golden tones were gone for good—scarred by the relentless grind. Ah, the price of ambition—a scratchy throat as a permanent reminder of my corporate conquests.
It seemed I had unwittingly exchanged the clarity of my voice for the tumult of career success. In the midst of our domestic enchantment with the possibly mystical kitchen island, Kath unearthed the contact of a reputed psychic, hailed as the finest in the land. However, the consultation fee was nothing short of princely, and with Jaz vehemently dismissing anything that couldn't be explained by cold, hard science, she promptly opted out of splitting the bill. Kath and I, unwilling to drain our wallets on what could be mere phantasmagoria, reluctantly let the opportunity pass.
Meanwhile, I couldn’t help but notice a curious change in Jaz’s routine. She had ceased dining at the kitchen island, avoiding it as if it were cursed—or perhaps, in her view, simply out of style. The Saturday morning brought a particularly harsh twist: a murder of crows took to spiralling above our balcony, their cries as sharp as the plot of a Poe novel. We found ourselves drawn to the infamous kitchen island, lined up like the cast of a macabre play, silently praying for the birds to disperse. Kath, ever trying to restore some semblance of normalcy, offered up cups of Blue Mountain coffee. She absentmindedly inquired if I wanted cream or sugar in mine—a blunder that made me realize just how long it had been since our last coffee klatch at this very spot. My inner monologue couldn't resist a dark wish for the crows to scatter, perhaps too dark, for they began to dive bomb our balcony in a feathery kamikaze. The spectacle was enough to knock Jaz off her feet—literally—as her mug met its end on the floor. Kath, meanwhile, made a hasty retreat to worship the porcelain god, and I sat frozen, my brain offline, pondering the twisted power of our kitchen island's apparent wish-granting.
After the unnerving spectacle of crows turning our balcony into a scene straight out of a Hitchcock film, our first rational step—post-collective fainting, of course—was to summon cleaners to manage the feathery carnage. Then, still rattled but increasingly curious, we visited a psychic, who, contrary to the crystal-ball-gazer image, operated out of a posh boutique in a high-end mall and dressed more like she was headed to a fashion show than a séance. We laid bare our saga of the seemingly cursed kitchen island, complete with photographic evidence of where domestic bliss meets eerie phenomena.
The psychic introduced a term that chilled the air around us: “limbo,” the threshold between our world and the otherworldly, and she dubbed our kitchen island the "Devil’s Bargain Counter." According to her, our wishes came with a heavy and unpredictable price, because we have accidentally started trades with beings from the netherworld. Her advice was disarmingly simple: cease all trades on the island. To address the repercussions of past wishes, she advised us the first line of defence, which was an eclectic mix of offerings laid out on our cursed countertop: raw meat(rooster works the best), a cocktail of spices(coca and cinnamon preferably), liberal splashes of spirits(whiskey and rum ideally), and an eerie bouquet of black flowers(luckily I found some black roses at a flower shop of the mall). In a grander gesture of appeasement, Kath relinquished her shiny new diamond bracelet, Jaz her absurdly expensive headphones, and I parted with cash—— a hefty slice of my bonus in hopes of placating whatever capricious spirits we'd angered.
Our return to normalcy was brief but sweet, prompting us to plan a getaway, eager to forget about our nefarious kitchen island. Yet, the respite was merely a tease. Jaz, in a stroke of spectacular misfortune, narrowly dodged disaster twice in one day—first nearly becoming subway track fodder on her way back after work, and then almost getting knocked out by a rogue plant at our apartment building’s doorstep. Clearly, our previous offerings were mere appetizers to whatever forces we'd stirred. The psychic, summoned once again to our now-dubious sanctuary, decreed that the spirits had developed rather expensive tastes, unsatisfied by our initial gestures.
In a desperate bid for closure, we had the psychic over for a nighttime ritual, timed perfectly with Earth's closest approach to the netherworld, according to her. Our living room turned into a ritual chamber, with windows blacked out for days, to keep the otherworldly dealings strictly nocturnal. That night, we arranged ourselves around the island, now less a kitchen fixture and more an altar of last resort.
The psychic, amidst a chorus of Latin incantations, directed us through a chilling séance that included a mirror that reflected nothing but darkness and a burning black candle, the three of us sat in a row, joined hands, eyes closed. When the black candle was flickering at its last, the first eerie scratches heard prompted our eyes to open prematurely, we saw a command appear on the island, written by invisible hand and pen, in blood-red script, urging us to find the next "succeeder" before our lease on otherworldly disturbances could be terminated.
With bated breath, we agreed, and as if by magic, our signatures materialized on the countertop, then faded as the candle sputtered out. We tore off the black cardboard taped on the windows at dawn, the sunrise revealed a final message etched into the surface: "Debt cleared." As the daylight grew, the ominous inscription dissolved into nothingness, signalling the end of our spectral saga.
The ordeal, now officially behind us, left us enjoying a semblance of normalcy: life in 606 returned to its mundane rhythm, with dinners and movie nights back on our social calendar. Though not without its scars—literal and figurative.
It’s been two years since then, Jaz, in the throes of romantic bliss, is now gearing up for a new chapter waiting to be written alongside her soon-to-be spouse; Kath, her career finally taking a lucrative turn, was poised to upgrade her living situation, she secured a lease on a lavish serviced apartment in the city center—a place that matched her newfound financial swagger.
I’m not without my own leaps forward. With a modest boost from my parents, I took the plunge into homeownership, snagging a property within the city’s vibrant confines. The process was a whirlwind of paperwork and decorating decisions, culminating in a space I could truly call my own.
As we are packing up now, my last act is to type out our story, at the infamous island, and of course, I left a note in the fridge for the next tenants:
"Welcome to 606. We had a wonderful time here, especially at the kitchen island, filled with joy and unforgettable moments. We hope you find as much happiness as we did. Use the isle well. Warm wishes, the previous tenants."

2024.05.15 00:21 Any-Beautiful7657 Late 30's bday advice

Hello,
I am currently trying to decide what I should do for my 36th bday!
I have been let down by those closest to me (significant other, close friends, etc.) In the past and although would love them to celebrate with me-- would be looking to have a great experience regardless of the Rsvp list.
About me: have a WFH job, male, and do not have a gym membership- although I really should. Have a bday in early August, and do not have a passport yet, but will be getting one shortly.
I can feasibly take a week off, so am open to most things.
Am in a relationship, but whether they go or not is not my issue.
Past bdays have included: zip lining, searching for bars which do flaming cocktails, and Disney world.
They are nice, but do not want to do repeats.
Would love any suggestions on how to celebrate a bday on not being real young nor being too old...
Thank you in advance!

2024.05.15 00:21 hylagrat Advice on selling a large and diverse collection

Has anyone here ever sold a really large and diverse collection? Let me explain what I mean...
I have a coin collection that I have been building off-and-on (mostly on) since I was a kid. 35+ years later, I have never sold a coin, and they are really starting to pile up. Like many collectors, I have gone through many "phases" - although these days my tastes are more specific. I have joked to my wife that I should just open a coin shop. Since I have been collecting for so long, I have a lot of the kinds of coins a kid with a paper route (if you don't know what that is, get off my lawn!) could afford in the 80s and 90s. I also have many individual coins worth hundreds or thousands of dollars (these are mostly the ones I want to keep.) And also... everything in between. Nearly everything is in labelled cardboard 2x2s, and I have a quite thorough excel catalog.
About half of my collection is miscellaneous base-metal world and US coins from the last 250 years or so, which I have attributed, labelled, and organized. A lot of these are just "coin shop $0.25 bin" material, but there are a lot of better and more interesting coins as well. The other half is a mix of random junk silver, US silver, world silver, some ancients and medieval coins, loads of early-modern european silver coins, and a handful of US and world gold. I'm less worried about disposing of the precious-metal coins - although I probably will thin those out once I'm done with the rest.
Here's my problem - my collection is well over 6700 individual coins, not including sacks of wheat cents and other random junk I have accumulated over the years. My collection is far too large for me to enjoy. It takes up two whole shelves in my office and half the shelves in my safe. Ideally, I would like to get it down to a few hundred coins at most. I think I could probably go through the whole collection if I dedicated a weekend, and separate out the coins I want to keep from those I don't. I have already separated out duplicates with the intent to eventually sell - but that won't even make a dent in the problem. I have considered just rolling up the piles of wheat cents, dateless buffalo nickels, etc. and taking them to the bank to be a fun surprise for someone else. I am not looking to maximize value - I value my time more than squeezing every last cent from each sale.
But back to my question... has anyone done this or something similar? I am familiar with the options, strategies, and platforms for selling - and I am fairly certain I will use eBay to sell the majority of my collection - many large lots and a few smaller lots or individual coins. If you have dealt with something like this - how difficult was it to sell thousands of coins?
I am looking for advice - but only if you've actually done something similar.
Thanks in advance!

2024.05.15 00:19 theslipperycustomer Are 90% of deaths in wars really civilians? What was the Civilian to Combatant ratio in Mosul and Raqqa?

Hi, I have seen defenders of Israel claim that Israel has made unprecedented efforts to protect civilian life in Gaza as the civilian to combatant fatality ratio is 1:1 (highly contested obviously as these are numbers Netanyahu has publicly said recently: 16K civilians, 14K combatants). They claim this ratio is unprecedented and the normal civilian combatant fatality ratio is 9:1. But it seems that 1:1 it is actually a pretty standard civilian to combatant fatality ratio in war and has been for a while:
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/096701068902000108?journalCode=sdia
Here are some examples of the claim:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wgHuYbBcfk
https://twitter.com/SpencerGuard/status/1786612909415473474
https://twitter.com/COLRICHARDKEMP/status/1747693189946106183?lang=en
I feel like there is some level of sophistry going on here as they refer to it as a casualty ratio and casualty does not mean fatality, it means deaths and injuries and can ever refer to other effects of war. In Gaza, 120,000 people have been killed or injured and there's only 30,000 Hamas/Islamic Jihad fighters so technically the ratio is at least a 3:1 if we're referring to a civilian to combatant casualty ratio.
I assume they are referring to the fatality ratio ratio. But is this 9:1 stat credible? They often cite the UN as a source but as far as I can tell they are referencing this study by the UN which claims that 90% of victims of war are civilians:
https://reliefweb.int/report/world/ocha-orientation-handbook-complex-emergencies
This claim in the UN study is based off this paper which also makes the same claim. But victim doesn't even mean casualty in this case and it includes people who are displaced:
https://international-review.icrc.org/sites/default/files/S0020860400060666a.pdf
See quote here where it includes refugees and internally displaced people as victims of war:
"The report goes on to deal at length with the various categories of victims of conflict, basing the analyses on statistics set out in several tables. Special attention is paid to the cases of child-soldiers (an estimated 200,000 children under the age of 15 are reportedly currently used as soldiers), refugees (over 16 million in the world in 1989) and people displaced in their own countries (over two million in Sudan). Giving a real-life dimension by eye-witness accounts and quotations from publications to what might otherwise be dry statistical data, the authors describe the efforts made by the United Nations, particularly the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, and the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement to provide protection and assistance for these especially vulnerable categories of victims.
Considering that 1.7 million people have been displaced in Gaza, if we are defining victims in the same sense of the original study then civilian to combatant victim ratio would be over 60:1.
Now I understand that this was is different as it is urban warfare and fatalities are likely to be higher. I can't find any statistic from studies claiming that this is the ratio in Urban conflict. All I could find was AAOV data which claims that up to 90% of casualties are civilians when explosives are used in urban warfare:
https://aoav.org.uk/explosiveviolence/
However AOAV applied these statistics to Gaza and found that ratio in Gaza was 10.1 after a X (Twitter) analyst Eli Kowaz claimed it was 0.8 but had miscalcuted the data. Funnily enough, the official Israeli spokesperson also published the 0.8 figure which was the reason why AOAV clarified this was a complete falsehood.
https://aoav.org.uk/2023/x-twitter-analyst-eli-kowazs-grossly-incorrect-interpretation-of-aoav-data-trends-claiming-idf-has-low-gaza-casualty-rate-kowaz-later-deletes-post-but-others-continue-to-spread-the-misinformatio/
So am I missing something? Is there any basis to the claim that 90% of deaths in war are civilians. Does this apply particularly to urban warfare. Because Even in the Syrian Civil War (which I doubt even Assad would claim there were great lengths taken to protect civilian life) had a higher number of combatants killed than civilians killed. Even the Afghanistan War seems to have had over 3 times as many combatant deaths than civilians deaths. I understand these two wars are not directly comparable but what about in Mosul and Raqqa? What was the ratio there?
TLDR: What was the Civilian to Combatant ratio in Mosul and Raqqa and other urban combat zones?

I was able to hold my wife's hand during our vacation - without sweating.
Got a prescription for oxybutynin recently. And miraculously, my hands were dry during three hot days walking through Disney World. I was able to hold my wife's hand as we walked. I've suffered from sweaty hands since childhood and this was a dream come true.
However, I don't plan on taking it daily, as I've read a bout the cognitive side effect. A couple days on and a couple days off, have worked so far.

2024.05.15 00:18 Rubythedeer Marius sweater

Marius sweater
I have wanted to knit a few Norwegian Marius sweaters for my family for… a long time. I’m in the US and I don’t speak Norwegian. I know that Sandnes Garn has the sole right to print any Marius patterns but I was hoping to get my hands on a booklet. In a perfect world, I would have the option of knitting a yoke sweater, drop sleeve, different yarn weights and different sizes.
I know that years ago they had a booklet printed in Norwegian and English that was exactly what I was looking for. It was called Sandnes Tema 15, Til Fjells Klassikere I haven’t been able to find an old copy though. Do any of you have advice?

2024.05.15 00:11 The_Lucinator A quick primer on stealth

A quick primer on stealth
Boo
I have seen a lot of people both here on reddit and on discord with questions on stealth or misconceptions on it. As a Docent and historian at the worlds largest private aerospace museum which has a lot of documentation on the subject and a few actual stealth aircraft, which helps in understanding this topic at a deeper level than most. This is meant to be a basic overview of how reduced Radar Cross Section, (RCS) is achieved. I’m not gonna go into detail about other features that matter in stealth such as Infrared signature reduction, or electromagnetic signature reduction both of which are just as critical to a proper stealth design.
If anyone wants to do some light reading on the subject I recommend Stealth by Doug Richardson, or Stealth Aircraft by Bill Sweetman. Both can provide a basic overview of the technical aspects of RCS. If you have a Aviation Week subscription they did a couple of great primer articles on this a few years ago and are also worth reading. There are also numerous academic papers on this topic that can be found if you want something with a bit more meat on the bones. What will follow is even further simplified from those books but should at least be more accessible and easy to understand.
The first thing I want to point out is how Radar actually works as this is something that a lot of people get wrong, and it can lead to many mistaken beliefs about how stealth works. People often think of a radar return as light reflecting off a object, and while in layman's terms this explanation suffices the actual quantum mechanisms are a bit more complicated and while the description is fine for basic knowledge knowing how it works at the smallest of scales is critical for getting your RCS to actually work.
When Radar strikes a object it doesn't just bounce off, what actually happens is that the radar wave induces a current in the material it hits, this then creates waves of the same magnitude as the incoming waves. It is this re-emitted energy that is what the radar receiver actually pics up. The direction of emission is also related to the direction of the incoming energy. One important factor in this is that object with a length/diameter about one half the wavelength will create a much stronger return. This is why some objects are much more radar reflective than others. However this isn't the only thing the energy can do. Sometimes the energy is absorbed by the material struck, this is your standard Radar Absorbing Material (RAM). Another interesting feature of radar is scattering and wave travel. The energy does not have to be emitted right away, it can travel along the object it hits before being re-emitted. Sharp boundaries are more likely to emit this radiation than smooth rounded shapes. This is further compounded by scattering which is how the magnitude of the return varies by the relationship of the wavelength to the size of the object. When they are about the same size (note this means the area the wave can travel not the size of the whole plane) you get what is called resonance which greatly increases the return of the object. When the wavelength is smaller than the object then it starts to treat smaller and smaller sections independently of each other as the object. This is important and will be discussed later.
The goal of RCS takes all of these considerations and more into the equation as some objects are also transparent to radar waves and others translucent. Furthermore the ability of a material to conduct electricity is important because this can help the waves propagate further before emitting. While on the surface this may seem bad and in some cases it is, it also allows for better control of where the emissions come from. Move over the angle of the surface being emitted dictates the strength of the signal and how it changes with direction, think this like a funhouse mirror, the cone/dome of radar can be emitted in a very different direction than it came from. This is not a easy thing to calculate and is a reason that early stealth aircraft were faceted as with the sharp lines were easier to predict where and in what direction the return waves would propagate. This has ironically led to many people thinking that faceted shapes are better for RCS, when in truth the opposite is true, however as stated earlier it is easier to model. This is why flat surfaces such as single vertical tail fins, and turbine blades are such big reflectors. The goal of any RCS is to reduce the amount of stuff making its way back to the emitting aircraft and being able to know exactly how the waves will travel is paramount to a successful RCS design.
To complicate matters further as I mentioned earlier when a wavelength is smaller than the object you are trying to detect than it will treat different parts of the aircraft separately however this can be modified by increasing the distance the wave can travel in a object. This is where the most critical part of any proper RCS effort comes into play. This is one of tolerances. See gaps are the ultimate emitter of waves since they have sharp edges, and break the electrical current flowing through the material thus drastically increasing the chance of emission. This is by far the largest contributor to RCS. It has also proved the bane of countries trying to develop stealth since it is very hard to have manufacturers that can achieve such tight tolerances and it isn't something you can just steal like the shape or RAM materials. Since a plane needs to have at least some moving parts being able to make them close to one another is paramount, having seems be almost non existent on a moving part is very hard. Most stealth aircraft require special tape to bridge the gaps especially the ones between materials with different electrical properties like those around the cockpit. This tape had to be applied every mission perfectly and was (and to some degree still is) the part that added the most to the Maintenance of aircraft like the F-117 and B-2. You can see a good example of this on the photo below of the TACIT BLUE aircraft which was one of the first stealth aircraft.

those dark area's around any hatches is the tape
As you probably well know part what is important is how the aircraft is structured and shaped, What isn't talked about is that most shapes that direct radar waves in a specific direction aren't the most conducive to good aerodynamics, thankfully for early stealth pioneers there are many materials that are very transparent to radar (such as the dome over most maritime radars). These materials can be used to smooth out the airflow and create a shape conducive to good flying characteristics (or even the ability to fly at all). Below is a good example of a photo showing the intricate sub surfaces on a aircraft control surface. You will notice that the underlying sawtooth shape would probably not be very aerodynamic but with the radar transparent leading edge the surface smooths out into the familiar shape you can recognize.

A great example of how the edges are smoothed over to create a clean wing
Another part that needs to be considered is that there are a wide range of radar wavelengths that can be used. What is a good RCS shape to one wavelength might matter a lot less to another frequency. This is why most broadband stealth designs are created and coated with materials the work to harmonize as many different wavelengths of radar as possible into a more cohesive waveform. This is mostly seen in third and fourth generation designs like the F-22 and F-35. You will often note the metallic sheen their paint tends to have and this is indicative of attempts to do this.

Stealthy paint
Not stealthy paint
There is one last effect that is worth noting and that is that if a wavelength is larger than the object then a effect know as Reyleigh Scattering happens and the radar treats the aircraft as one homogeneous aircraft and shape and angles no longer really mater to the return just the size and composition of the object. This is why many countries looking to develop counter stealth technologies often look at low frequency radar as it can get around the shaping of the aircraft as well as issues with things like gaps, though the effectiveness of RAM isn't changed. Ok so you are probably asking why people don't just use long wave radar, well there are two problems while long wave radar has great range due to the energy required for a given distance is proportional to the wavelength it also comes at the price of accuracy and also needing a large antenna to pick up any receiving signals since the reception of radar signals generally requires a receiver proportional to the wavelength. Also effected is resolution which means that knowing that something is out there is easier but knowing where it is, is much harder. The lower resolution can have other unhelpful effects such as combining many small objects (like a flock of birds) into one.

Lastly as alluded to earlier there is a hierarchy to the importance of design features. In general it goes like this. By far the most important one is tolerance of the parts and elimination of gaps. Then in a distant second is RAM and other coatings. Lastly there is shape though unlike the other two this is still required by some degree to any stealthy aircraft whereas you can go without the other two but with a much more easily detectable object. It illustrate this and to show how all of this starts to fit together look below at the four aircraft's. Now rank them in order of smallest RCS to largest.......Scroll down past them for the answer.
F-22A Raptor

Su-57 Felon
F/A-18E/F Block III Super Hornet
KF-21 Boramae (fighting hawk)
Ok good here are the results
  1. F-22
  2. F/A-18 E/F Block III
  3. KF-21
  4. Su-57
so how many of you thought that the KF-21 would be 3rd, or that the Su-57 would be last? This illustrates the importance of both keeping tight tolerances and in the heavy use of RAM and other skin (and some sub-skin) treatments. Both of the planes have shaping that is conducive to having a low RCS but are not able to match the 4.5 gen Superhornet’s latest version due to the latter's better tolerance control and increased use of RAM materials. This much has been admitted by the Korean government which has admitted that the Block one KF-21 which has no RAM and looser tolerance levels than they would have wished. They do plan on incorporating those as well as including a full internal bay rather than the semi-recessed hardpoints it currently has. This shows the difficulty in mastering those two elements since the South Koreans have a lot of experience building and even decent experience designing planes. The Su-57 is a bit of the different case. Teasing out the failings of the Su-57 has taken more work given the Russian government claims that its stealth feature are some of the best in the world. However pictures of the Su-57 during construction shows a complete lack of sub-surface shaping, as well as a lack of RAM coating on many surfaces that should have it. Furthermore riveting and screw attachment of parts are massive no no’s in stealth and the Su-57 has those in droves. Furthermore the engine's turbine blades are visible through the air intake something even the KF-21 avoids limiting the ability to actually improve the RCS. It also has clearly visible gaps at locations where they would significantly contribute to increasing the RCS. Lastly the paint on the plane does not exhibit any metallic properties meaning that it likely is derived from first gen stealth paint, most likely from samples of the F-117 that was shot down in the Balkans. Based on this and knowledge that tolerances have always been a weakness of Russian manufacturing (though in the past this was deliberate as low tolerances allow for more rugged machines) thus the Su-57 probably doesn't have a ton of RCS reduction and is probably on the level of the Eurofighter in terms of RCS.

Ok so now withe the brief overview out of the way you are probably wondering how Flyout's “RCS” system fits into all of this. The answer is not at all. There is almost no connection between the games determination and reality. This can be deduced by the lack of most properties that are needed to define RCS. Some of the notable ones needed are wavelength of the radar used and given radar itself isn't in game we know that's not yet on the table, the electrical conductive properties of a aircraft's paint and skin/structures are very important to any radar return modeling and so far materials used in game are purely cosmetic. There also is no RAM material and even how that works is highly variable in real life but even a massively simplistic implementation doesn't exist so we can cross that out. There also is no setting for tolerances of parts of the plane and given that is the most important contributor to reducing RCS the lack of all these features means that the game’s RCS has no real connection with how real RCS works. Lastly, I don’t expect there to be a accurate system implemented. This is due to the massive computing power needed to model the subtle interactions of radar waves with all of these factors. As mentioned before there is a reason faceting was used heavily in early stealth aircraft despite it being less than optimal. It would take several months of using 1970’s supercomputers specially programed to just do this calculation to get a RCS model for a given aircraft shape. Even then it had to have data from real world RCS testing added to achieve this. While computing power has exponentially increased since then the ability to actively simulate a planes RCS in real time, is still well beyond anything a desktop computer can do. Especially given you would need a completely custom engine just for that part. And none of what I have said touches on other parts that can contribute to RCS like degradation of RAM coatings, or the fact that the exhaust from planes in afterburner shows up on radar (this is due to the lower density of hot air coupled with changes in the airs natural radar absorbing properties due to being at a different temperature). So for everyone out there, don't worry about or look too far into the RCS of your stealth plane be as creative as you want. That being said it is possible that IR reduction could be better simulated in game and might be a possible thing to have added. Real RCS will likely be limited to at best massively approximated stand-in values. Though there is a way to achieve a real world stealth parameter which is visual stealth, ie cammo or other tech that reduces a aircrafts visual signature. Along with some tech (like the hole material that is fictional but renders the plane truly invisible)
Implementing the \"hole\" surface material to a plane in real life
On a side tangent I want to point out that the exhaust phenomenon is something that has effected all stealth aircraft and the main reason the A-12 and SR-71 had no real RCS reduction since the massive amount of air the moved through the planes engines meant they were usually spotted at the maximum range of whatever radar they flew near. And while on the A-12 they tried to eliminate this through a combination of using a cesium fuel additive(which did absolutely nothing), and plasma stealth to shield the air intake so the fan blades would not reflect (which apparently worked ok but used a enormous amount of power, led to airflow disruptions that made the engine both less efficient, even more prone to flameouts, and caused the formation of nitric acid and other corrosive compounds the hurt the engine.). For the reasons I just showed the cesium and plasma stealth systems were disabled on the A-12 by the time it entered its brief service and not used at all on the SR-71, which instead used it’s extreme speed, altitude and what can be argued was the most extensive ECM suit ever fitted to a aircraft at the time, to ensure that any missile that got close could be jammed.
Hope this helps people.

2024.05.15 00:09 ehrg3iz_57 Doubts about using memory palace technique for a very extensive exam

So, I am studying for a exam to enter in the foreign service of my country. It's probably one of the Top 5 hardest exams on the country. There are 3 phases: the first is a 73 questions where you have to mark 4 items on each for false or wrong, and the other 2 phases are essays. It requires a very ample knowledge on the following subjects:
  1. Economics
  2. Constitutional, Administrative and International Law
  3. World's History
  4. History from my country
  5. Geography
  6. International Politics (both theory and history)
  7. English, French and Spanish
I have read pretty much all the stuff I need to. Now I am only passing by the books and taking notes of the highlights I made. I was then planning to use Anki to memorize all the information that I need, doing cards on my notes. Many people who has been approved used it, but since I find it very tedious, I really wanted to try Memory Palaces to do that. But I am worried about 2 things:
  1. The sheer amount of knowledge: Let's make a very unrealistic assumption that I will have to make only 100 notes per book. I read 60 books plus other materials like articles, etc. Considering that I can condense my notes and put at least sometimes more than one note in a loci, and reduce it to perhaps 4500 notes, it would still be a lot. I don't know how many palaces I can make, specially considering that it will be probably, in a more realistic scenario, perhaps the double of this quantity of notes.
  2. I am insecure on using this method to do the exam since I don't know people whom have used it for such purpose. It happens annually, and I really want/must be approved ASAP. Can't afford to wait 3 years or something to be approved.
So, has anyone used this method to pass on a exam of similar difficult/structure? Do you think by your experience with Memory Palaces that it can be done, considering the amount of loci necessary, etc.?

2024.05.15 00:08 xhxssanx Im really upset..

I really love english, im familiar with all the texts ive read and have tried my hardest all these years.. english comes naturally to me and i know most of everything however my biggest issue is writing speed.. it got so bad i begged for extra time instead i only recieved rest-breaks and they are literally useless (at least for me) i know im really high ability and my target grade is a whole 8.. but with essay based subjects like english history (and sometimes business studies) i can never bloody finish in time (i also naturally write neat in cursive and this may be a reason why i write slower??) This aggravates me sm and im so upset with my english literature paper 1. I knew everything but couldn’t finish in time, i had like 3 rest-breaks but as i said earlier theyre useless.. im guessing i literally got a grade 3-4 on that paper, i had component 1: macbeth and component 2: poetry anthology (exam board: Eduqas) and was wondering if i could make up for it in english literature paper 2 (20th may) or not..? Whats the highest grade i could boost up to? im really upset but i really will put effort in for this, i really underestimated english.. if you know any ways to help speed up my writing time then please send

2024.05.15 00:07 Reasonable-Setting74 Why is it that everytime I make a post on reddit, I get negative reactions?

I'm thirteen and obviously am still learning about the world. I made a post about disney, since I saw a post on another site where somebody was talking about how they made a white character black in the new movie. I wanted to ask about it. "Why do white people get upset when disney makes an originally white character black?" Was the title. I guess I did something wrong. I got so many downvotes, and I ended up pissing somebody off. Is this my sign to just... get off of reddit? I get hella anxiety when I feel like I've done something wrong, so this is making me feel pretty shitty.

2024.05.15 00:01 Small-Kangaroo-5637 In desperate need of groceries

I will try to make a long situation short because I’m loosing my mind trying to stay a float. Gave birth 2 weeks ago (c section) my spouse’s hours at work got drastically cut a month before we had our daughter and he’s had no luck finding any work since. I also have a 5 & 3 year old. I’ve applied for snap benefits and been approved but we won’t receive them until a week from now probably more because I’m waiting on the paper work they sent out to me. I’m starving and been eating scraps so I have enough food to last for my kids. I’ve tried local churches and food banks the only items I’ve received from the food bank was fruits and vegetables I’m grateful but it’s not enough. My spouse sold his cell phone to pay our water bill and I have an appointment to donate plasma in a few days. If anyone can help with anything at all it would mean the world right now. Im sorry if I did not post this right I am literally just sick and desperate right now. I have Venmo or if someone would do a Walmart pickup I could give you that info thank you in advance.

2024.05.15 00:00 Brief_Mycologist1225 Unleash Vibrant Prints: Choosing the Perfect Color Printer for Your Needs (Hardware Egypt)

In today's digital world, the need for physical prints persists. Whether for professional presentations, creative projects, or cherished photographs, a reliable color printer can be a valuable asset. But with a vast array of options available, selecting the ideal color printer for your specific requirements can feel overwhelming. Here at Hardware Egypt, we're here to guide you through the process, ensuring you find the perfect partner for your printing needs.

Understanding Your Needs: Inkjet vs. Laser

The two primary technologies dominating the color printer market are inkjet and laser. Each boasts distinct advantages and caters to different printing habits.

Inkjet Printers:

Ideal for high-quality photo printing. Inkjet printers produce vibrant colors and exceptional detail, making them perfect for reproducing photographs and graphics.
Generally more affordable upfront cost compared to laser printers.
Known for slower printing speeds than laser printers.
Ink cartridges can be expensive, especially for high-volume printing.
Laser Printers:

Renowned for their fast printing speeds, making them ideal for high-volume printing tasks.
Toner cartridges offer a lower cost per page compared to inkjet cartridges.
Produce crisp, professional-looking text documents.
Not as well-suited for high-quality photo printing as inkjet printers.
Laser printers tend to have a higher initial purchase price.
Beyond Technology: Key Considerations

Having identified your preferred technology, delve deeper into features that enhance your printing experience:

Print Resolution: Measured in dots per inch (dpi), resolution determines the sharpness and detail of your prints. Higher resolutions like 4800 dpi are ideal for photo printing, while lower resolutions (300 dpi) suffice for basic text documents.
Connectivity: Consider how you'll connect to your printer. Most modern printers offer Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing for wireless printing from various devices. Other options include USB ports and Ethernet connections.
Multifunctionality: Do you require scanning, copying, and faxing capabilities alongside printing? Opt for a multifunction printer (MFP) to streamline your workflow and save space.
Running Costs: Factor in not just the initial cost of the printer but also the ongoing expense of ink or toner cartridges. High-yield cartridges can be a cost-effective option for frequent printing.
Paper Handling: Determine the paper sizes your printer can accommodate (A4, A3, etc.) and its automatic paper feeder capacity. This is crucial if you plan on printing large documents or multiple copies at once.
Hardware Egypt: Your One-Stop Shop for Color Printers

At Hardware Egypt, we offer a comprehensive selection of color printers from leading brands like HP, Canon, Epson, and Brother. Our knowledgeable staff is dedicated to understanding your specific needs and recommending the perfect printer for you. Whether you're a home user, a small business owner, or a creative professional, we have the ideal solution to bring your colorful ideas to life.

Here are some additional points to consider when choosing a color printer:

Print volume: How often will you be using the printer? If you only print occasionally, a more basic model might suffice. However, if you plan on printing frequently, a higher-volume printer with lower running costs will be more economical.
Environmental impact: Look for printers with eco-friendly features, such as energy-saving modes and recyclable cartridges.
Brand reputation: Consider the brand's reputation for quality, reliability, and customer service.

Going to Disney world and going to spend probably around 5K on restaurants. Don’t want to get the Disney card cause it has to be used for Disney things. Any recomendations or something with a high cash back for opening after a certain amount of spending? Thank you.
