2024.05.16 13:30 Large-Wheel-4181 The Zero Point (Fortnite) vs The Entity (Dead By Daylight) [Theme, Connections, Contrast, etc.]

The Zero Point (Fortnite) vs The Entity (Dead By Daylight) [Theme, Connections, Contrast, etc.]
Core Theme:
•Powerful deities that manipulate realities for their own reasons, while all beings are simply playthings to them
Connections
•Powerful Multiversal Cosmic Beings that take various people from different universes (With Zero Point doing it to free itself from the Imagined Order aka IO after they forced Zero Point to take Loopers to The Island/ The Entity gathers up Killers and Survivors in order to feast on their emotions in various ways with it forcing them to participate in a hunt)
•They not only have the ability to buff or nerf characters they have taken but also have their powers and abilities shared among others within their worlds
•They do have organizations that assist them (Zero Point has The Seven who seem to protect it to prevent everything otherwise everything will end/ The Black Vale however worship The Entity as a God Like being and manipulated some events to gather, in some cases create, killers and survivors for The Entity itself while also battling The Imperiatti to prevent them from stopping The Entity.
•Despite their god like power they have to deal with an organization that wants to destroy or control them (The IO /The Imperiatti)
•They are responsible for creating realities that the games take place in. (Zero Point simply created the realities/ The Entity however creates new realities based on the memories of all it consumes as it goes around invading other realities)
•They have assembled a roster of characters including ones from movies, tv shows and video games
•They even have captured celebrities (Marshmello/ Nicholas Cage)
•There’s seasonal events that occur where they change up the formula on how their games will function
•Despite their original gamestyle origins they are continuing to spread into new realms. Like for example: (Racing/RPG)
•Both have even brought in Slipknot into their worlds
•Both include a shooter element within their worlds where players have to combat against various threats (Fortnite this is base, but for Dead By Daylight this is expanded on with games What The Fog and Project T)
•Both worlds feature various characters (Originals and guests) that have traveled into their realm and have seemed to either protect or control the deities
Contrasts:
•Zero Point is definitely more of a world of fun while The Entity is all about suffering even beyond death itself.
•The Zero Point isn’t as active in it’s world while The Entity is constantly active all throughout itself whether it be assisting or hindering all throughout and even toying with everyone in it’s own way just to feed off emotions
Animation/Fight Potential:
•This could easily qualify as a Season Finale so it could definitely be a 3D all throughout or at the very least just the simiple characters are 3D while the background and deities are 3D. As for the fight, that could go back and forth between the deities making moves against one another while having moments of characters fighting one another only to then revive and go back at it. The Entity would definitely be the invading force while the Zero Point would be one the defense. Though knowing The Entity’s methods it would appear to do an invasion but in reality be trying to find a way around or working towards slowly corrupting The Zero Point itself.
•Important Things to note between the characters interacting is that while Fortnite characters can build items, killers can destroy breakable objects in 1-2 hits. Also why killers can’t die under the Entity’s rule, they do still feel pain and can be stunned. Plus Killers could act more like generals while The Thrall (beings that will be introduced in DBD’s Project T) can act as the foot soldiers.
Music Track
•Kind of tricky to pinpoint if there can be one particular type of music that could work for it as it could go back and forth between comical for Fortnite while intense for Dead By Daylight though I could see a possible vocal track also being used for it as well
Debatably
•At first it would seem like Zero Point has this based on defeating Galactus however it didn’t kill Galactus it just sent him away, which is definitely an important factor in death battle since it’s a battle to the death. With Galactus that was also a direct attack which is very different than how The Entity attacks which usually is slow and calculated attacks with the goals of corrupting and absorbing universes. Plus The Entity is stated to feed off all the emotions of individuals within it’s realms which probably means the Zero Point would have to find a way to eliminate all of those emotions in The Entity’s realm to erase it from existence. This looking to be a power vs hax type of MU the more and more I look into them. As for who wins, it’s actually looking hard to tell as of right now.

2024.05.16 13:28 ThrowawayX0Z me and my girlfriend

hey. so, this is gonna be a long one. im 14 and my girlfriend is 13, we met online around february, we lived across the country. i was in a bad state, like, i had no friends and bad history of s/h and no one to really support me and she was there, she also had this. it was cool because we confided with one another:) i knew her sisters, her parents, like it was so cool. we called and played games and really talked for hours, like, i loved her so much. we progressed to deeper sxual kind of talk but nothing really happened, but, we planned for the future so much, we had plans to meet and everything. i loved her and she stopped me from jumping off my balcony. i don’t really know how to explain it but this was love, really, not some stupid childhood ones where we think we are loving and dating, this was something serious that made us actually feel something, we talked like actually every day for at least 5 hours. we discussed so much personal stuff like its so fucking crazy we can’t ever talk again this shit is so fucked up.
but, there was a catch to this perfect thing we had
her parents.
she was abused, like mentally and physically. she planned to runaway but never did. come to this week, she runs away to the police station. (context, she has a secret phone she uses to talk to me as her parents are strict) she told them and im sorry im gonna probably cut the story short cuz im getting emotional haha but they didnt take her seriously, her mom found out about the phone, and she basically just got really fucked up. so, she texts me today on her school laptop, saying it would be better if we broke up. i expected this and its really mind shattering. like, there’s really no one stopping me from doing anything to myself because my life feels so fucking abnormal and i can’t imagine her with another guy and it hurts so much and i can’t do this shit anymore and we really had so much we did so much like stupid tier lists about our favourite shit and just really discussed anything yk? our favourite music books shows everything and i just fucking hate this world bro it fucks everything up when its perfect. i don’t know what to do. and im scared honestly. still unpopular at school but at least i had her, right? now i don’t have her, right? im never gonna have a connection that good again, she was my soulmate and the prettiest girl in the world. loyal as fuck. funny as fuck, perfect humor. like i sometimes just sat down and thought about how perfect it was. i guess ill end it here, dont know why im posting this, it was originally for advice but i don’t know anymore, man

2024.05.16 13:26 Extreme-Gap-911 I 24M need advice on how to save my love.

I 23M need helping figuring out what to do for the love of my live, 23F and if you guys really think there’s a chance we can be together, am I crazy? We were together for almost three years, lived together for about two years. She moved two hours from her family and friends to be with me. We were madly in love for the majority of the relationship, we have been inseparable, we have been each others rocks and we have had such an amazing connection that we both agree on. Unfortunately for the past several months we have not been doing great and it is a result of both of us not being fully healed from past trauma. I lost something extremely important to me fairly recently after she moved in, my cat, and it took a huge toll on me. He was there for me through a lot of awful abuse when I was kid. I had no real family or support system, we lost him on the 4th of july after we came back from fireworks he just started violently seizing, we got to the animal hospital 30 minutes later at about 1 am and he kept suffering I could hear him scream from outside. He unfortunately passed. He was only 7. It took a huge toll on me. I struggled not to shut down, I didn’t get mean or treat her like shit, I just didn’t have enough in me to go the extra mile. I’ve been struggling to try and build a future for us, I got us this apartment, and I’ve just tried to buckle down thinking that it was enough for us. Just barely functioning felt like so much effort that anything beyond that was so exhausting but I was always so happy to be around her. She has always been amazing and I never failed to recognize that I just haven’t always known how to show it. I’ve never had an example of how to love, I just have been learning as I go. Our love languages have not always seen eye to eye but that doesn’t mean for a second I have not or do not want to learn how to be the best man for her I can. I love her so fucking purly and I want nothing more than to be able to marry this woman. I hate that we have gotten to this point. She broke things off with me because she didn’t feel the love like we used to have it, and I didn’t either but I have never loved her any less. She is still staying here and we have been very civil, we’ve had some very good conversations and even went on a couple dates to try to spark the love again and it worked, but made her more confused and sad. She says she still loves and cares about me and her actions prove it to be true, but she says she needs space for us to grow. Do you think it’s possible we can be together again? I have been thinking about this for months. I know what I want. This is not my first love but I have definitely never loved like this, and neither has she. We do truly have a very special bond and I don’t want to lose that. We have been each others best friends for three years. I can reply to any comments with any questions. I appreciate any advice I can get.
TL;DR My girlfriend and I have been through a lot, she doesn’t want to be with me right now but says she has hope we can be together again. She says she wants me to be the one. Is it possible we can heal and come back stronger than ever?

2024.05.16 13:25 Outrageous-Machine-5 Can you setup a proxy to a RHUI instance in Sonatype Nexus?

Title mostly explains the use case. We have RHEL through AWS and that points to their RHUI instance for the given region. We have a request to make RHEL packages available for CI, and to do that we have Sonatype Nexus for artifact management.
Nexus has support for Yum repos and documentation for a RHEL proxy here, but here are the problems:
  1. I can't use this doc. There is no entitlement through AWS with RHUI. It looks like you don't use the `subscription-manager` at all with RHUI in fact according to this doc by Red Hat. The proxy url also points to the CDN which looks like a different use case than using the uris of the mirrorlist pointing to the RHUI for a new AWS RHEL instance specified in `yum.repos.d`. I also verified that in spite of the warnings that my EC2 instance is not registered, both `yum` and `dnf` pull packages and run update just fine.
  2. I haven't found any docs for pulling from the RHUI. I'm not sure if it works at all with Nexus. Nexus supports yum proxy repos, but it only provides one set of GPG Key, remote URL, and certs per repo, whilst there are 4 or 5 enabled repos specified in the `redhat-rhui.repo` file each with different subdirectories to repos hosted on the same rhui instance, each with their own set of ssl certs, although a `cat redhat-rhui.repo grep ssl sort -u` reveals that each repo uses the same set of `sslcacert`, `sslclientcert`, and `sslclientkey` files. There is also the separate client config repo to consider. I could think of a few possible approaches to this, I would like to know thoughts if anyone is familiar with this. Do we:
a. point to RHUI directly in the remote url, something like `rhui.us-east-1.aws.ce.redhat.com` and we can setup Nexus to automatically resolve the different repos in one Nexus proxy?
b. have to setup a new Nexus repo per entry in the `redhat-rhui.repo` INI file to resolve each set of certs when using `yum`?
c. have a persistent RHEL instance with RHUI repos fully configured and point Nexus to that RHEL instance instead (the instance still doesn't have an entitlement attached, so need to figure that out still, but I'm leaning towards this, only issue I see could be cost/performance bottleneck if a lot of teams end up using it)?
d. if pointing to the EC2 in c is a bottleneck or if running a persistent instance is too expensive, do we use Terraform to spin up a micro instance at build time to pull from using the AWS licensing to authorize Nexus? (<- this is what the customer says we can do, but I have my doubts that ssl certs made for a specific instance will be the same for a new instance)
Being that the subscription is managed through AWS, we don't have access to the subscription itself to use the Red Hat customer portal. I'm meeting with our financial officer, the guy who approves these paid subscriptions, next week to see if I can at least or what I can do about using our RHEL subscription, but until then public domain/forums like reddit are all the resources I have to find a solution.
One last note is that I tried running this how to on connecting to RHUI through curl on a RHEL instance and it worked perfectly fine, tested with `rhel-8-appstream-rhui-rpms`, so I was figuring a way of using that to get around the issue with not having an entitlement attached to the instance.
What are your thoughts?

2024.05.16 13:24 ratratte Delusional ex-friend (30F) and her BF (20M) harass me (26TM) and my music band. What should I do?

Hi everyone! I would like to share one bizarre story with this sub. I used to have a friend of around 5 years, she was a rather nice woman, but she was known for randomly getting offended by her friends and stopping talking to them for a while until calming down and becoming friends again. She has a mental illness, and I think it is related to the problem, because she would often show me her social media chat and complain how the other person was horribly rude to her, but all I could see was normal talk and nothing off-putting in the conversation, so I just shrugged. Once I noticed that she was also writing to an "offender" how she had shared the conversation with me and how I hated that person, which of course was a complete lie and I firmly told her not to say such things, to which she replied: "So what? It's just to increase the effect". She was also known for begging for money from working friends, and she loaned from me as well with a promise to return the sum, which she never did and only shared how she would buy some expensive comic book for the same amount she promised to return.
At one point, I introduced her to a fresh member of our band, and they started dating. The guy had zero motivation to study at our university, and he would always blame the professors and everyone around for him getting bad grades, despite him repeatedly telling me how he didn't want to show up on time for the class, do homework etc. She kept blaming everybody else as well and saying how the world was heartlessly cruel to her poor, innocent love. He was not progressing at all with music, either, but our band is open for everyone and he was always welcome to play simpler things with us. We also had a sub-band which had paid concerts more often, and he asked us to join, but we made a collaborative decision that his level was yet too low to play for money.
I graduated and found a suitable job, but my profession requires a lot of physical work under the hot sun, so I was more often dead tired than not. I stopped seeing these two as often as before, but I would call them regularly after work, and every time I heard: "Come over to see us", I replied that I couldn't walk the rather big distance to their home (there is no public transport connection to there) due to the heavy work and shaky legs, and invited them over instead. They would always say that they were tired and had no time... while they had no work and lived on the disability money. Sometimes she would outwardly say that I was not tired and was making it up, after I had spent all summer day walking with a heavy canister in a hazmat suit. It left a bad taste in my mouth, but I always tried to shrug it off. She eventually wrote me that I was talking to "creep" friends online (one of which was my partner and they are lovely people whom I had met IRL) and doing my hobbies instead of visiting her, and I explained to her yet again that I was tired and that she had no right to offend my friends, it grew into an argument, and since she obviously wanted to break up, I told her to return me my money finally, and she blocked me.
Fast forward, after a nice concert, she wrote in our band chat that I was narcissistic and shut everyone down, all because I was sometimes announcing songs during the concert, as agreed. Everyone could just stand up and announce, and I kept giving everyone else the chance, but hardly anyone stood up so I had to announce. Later on, the guy stopped attending the rehearsals, and our music teacher told him to return the instrument and the costume without telling him to leave the band, just that they would be safely stored without disappearing as they are expensive. He surrendered the items through someone else and deleted himself from the band chat, of course she followed. When our music teacher tried to contact them, she said that her love won't play for free.
Now these lovey-doveys keep commenting under our band videos and posts how "horrible" everything is from photos to music itself (our music is in general very well-received), but also they spread total BS about me to everyone else: that I "kicked this poor guy from the band", that the music teacher had only supported me and nobody else, that I was always lying to them, that I am narcissistic and stabbed them in the back, that I owe her money etc. Of course, it made me so mad that I also publicly mentioned that she should go and see her psychiatrist because her delusional behaviour was getting out of control, because every accusation she says about me is absolute nonsense. I regret revealing her mental problems publicly, but I was really mad about all the lies that she had said about me. She is still spreading gossip and keep shitting on my band publicly.
Is it worth trying to contact her and say I was sorry about telling publicly she was mentally ill? I am afraid it will let her feel more powerful or something, and her lying started before I did my part, so I felt like I had the right to also offend her in return. What should I do in this situation?
TL;DR "offended" ex-friends couple gossip about me, shit on my band and accuse me of serious things I didn't do, what should I do with them?

2024.05.16 13:23 Kitsunara_ Help to type socionics

Hello guys, I've been trying to typify myself but I always identify with different functions and maybe my compression is not the best in the subject.
I'm a girl and I'm 21 years old, English is not my main language so sorry for any mistakes.
Section 1
How do you work? Why do people go to work? Are there any parameters that determine whether you can do work or not? What are they?
I work because I have no choice, that's how the world I was born is and that's how I'm going to live, I admire those who try to change the course of things like a superhero but I'm a mere citizen.
Because people have dreams and goals and they can't achieve what they want without money unless they're lucky enough to be born into an elite family, if so they won the lucky roulette wheel of life.
I don't work well in heavy environments, I survived only 1 day in a factory because a woman keep screaming at me, everyone tried to convince me to try harder but I was feeling to overwhelmed.
How do you determine the quality of work? How do you determine the quality of a purchase? Do you pay any attention to it
Result.
I'm a bit picky with the quality of my stuff, especially the fabric of my clothes. It's because of comfort but also for aesthetics.
There is a professional next to you. How do you know they are a professional? How do you evaluate their skill?
They get the job done on time and well done. I don't think there's only one way to do things, we are all taught in a certain way but then we also adapt, we end up creating our own way of doing things that work for us.
If you struggle to do something, how do you fix that? Do you know if your performance is better or worse than others?
It depends, I usually learn by trying until it works but I can't always use this technique so I seek tutorials or ask for help.
Definitely, I'm very paranoid about my job, I hate feeling incompetent. If I have the conditions and knowledge to take the initiative to do something at work, I'll do it, but if I'm insecure then I'd rather stay quiet I don't want to mess things up.
How do you measure the success of a job? What standard do you use? Do you pay attention to it? When should you deviate from this standard?
I like easy jobs, constant stress is not for me. Easy, the money, the free time I will have, the responsibilities (few I expect) and the effort.
Section 2
What is a whole? Can you identify its parts? Are the parts equivalent to the whole?
I'm so confused, am I supposed to give a definition or come out with some abstract sentence?
What does "logical" mean? What is your understanding? Do you think that it correlates with the common view? How do you know you are being logical?
Logic to me is something that makes sense, when your actions and words are coherent and when you take into account all the factors to make a correct decision. Contrary to what the Alphas may believe, Logic is not coldness, in fact, to be completely logical you have to take the emotions of others and your own into account, otherwise you are just emotionally unavailable. For example, killing half the population just because someone killed your cat is not logical, you're actually being driven just by emotions.
What is hierarchy? Give examples of hierarchies. Do you need to follow it? Why or why not? Explain how hierarchy is used in a system you are familiar with.
In short, it's when you're on the first floor and need to climb the stairs to get to the second, you may be able to pay someone to build an elevator to get up there faster, or you can't afford it and you have to overcome all the conditions, shortness of breath, pain in your legs, the stairs that are old and falling apart...
Hierarchy is something natural and will always exist, no matter how much you hate it, the world is not a fair place and there will always be someone eating fried chicken in a lamborghini at the expense of a child who makes clothes for shein.
If you're ambitious you have to do it, but if you're like me who just want to have money to live a "basic life", then you don't need to climb so many stairs, just the necessary ones.
What is classification? How does classification work? Why is it needed and where is it applied? Give examples.**
Is when you take a product, tangible or not (e.g. a bread or skills) and give it a certain punctuation/category according to certain requirements.
Obviously, imagine that you built a building made of toothpicks (product) that would collapse 1 minute after being exposed to the wind because no one had the brilliant idea to take into account the meteorological conditions (requirement)
Are your ideas consistent? How do you know they are consistent? How do you spot inconsistency in others' ideas?
I'm usually an introspective person, so even when my ideas are incoherent I think about them at some point and "correct" the incoherence, unless I'm really emotional I think that during those moments no one is coherent.
Yes, but I usually prefer to keep quiet if it's none of my business.
Section 3
Can you press people? What methods do you use? How does it happen?
Usually no, first of all I don't like to force anyone to do anything because I don't like to be forced either, second that I'm not good at forcing people especially strangers and it's the main reason to have been bullied and still have problems with people walking over me.
What I do is that I tell the advantages of doing something the way I want or admit that it would be convenient for me.
What can happen is when I do something for a person over and over again and they never reciprocate, and there is when I can be a manipulative and childish (passive-agressive)
How do you deal with opposition? What methods do you use to defend your interests?
It depends on the situation, I react badly if it's the example I gave earlier. If someone starts trying to control me indirectly, I can react two ways, or I play dumb for the sake of peace or the manipulation goes directly against my interests and in that case I walk away (with strangers) or protest (people close to me).
When do you think it's ok to occupy someone's space? Do you recognize it?
When they occupy yours is the only situation I can think of right now.
Do others think you are a strong-willed person? Do you think you have a strong will?
I don't know what others think.
It depends if it's about something I'm sure I want, for example a lot of people say I'm crazy for wanting to leave the country but I made that choice for myself and that's what I'm going to do, if I don't change my mind until then (which usually doesn't happen). Otherwise I think I can be seen as lazy, I need a very strong motivation that comes from myself.
How do you satisfy your physical senses? What examples can you give? What physical experiences are you drawn to?
I really like hot baths and pleasant smells. I'm a bit paranoid about my own smell, I'm always putting on deodorant for example.
On the other hand I'm not very good with my internal health, I have to force myself to remember to drink water and food is optional, I don't usually eat breakfast and especially at work I only eat salty snacks or soup most time. I tend to eat more when I want to be greedy or have food available, if I have to do it then I don't eat or I make something simple. I have a friend who judges me for it (I think she has strong Si).
I like some extreme activities, for example I've done canoeing which I loved and every summer I go to the scariest carousels at the fair, I feel free.
How do you find harmony with your environment? How do you build a harmonious environment? What happens if this harmony is disturbed?
I like quiet environments where everyone is genuinely fine and not pretending, so if any of my friends are feeling bad I try to help them. I also like to go to beautiful places with friends or alone like organize a picnic, go to a waterfall...
What does comfort mean to you? How do you create it?
Being in a place alone where I don't need to be anxious all the time, where I can let my guard down, eat sushi while listening to the sound of the rain in warm pajamas and under my blanket creating some fake scenario on my head.
How do you express yourself in your hobbies? How do you engage yourself with those things?
When I was a kid I tried to start playing piano but I dind't last long because It requires a long time to get results and I didn't want to practice at home. I prefer simpler hobbies without commitments, for example playing video games, painting, reading books, and trying new hobbies.
I'd really like to start trying to go to craft classes, but short classes to then be able to try another one until maybe I find one that suits me.
Tell us how you'd design any room, house or an office. Do you do it yourself, or trust someone else to do it? Why?
If I had the money I would call someone to take care of the big part, I would tell them exactly what I want, then I would just take care of the details.
Is it acceptable to express emotions in public? Give examples of inappropriate expression of emotions
That's not a question of being acceptable or not, emotions can't always be controlled, you never know what someone is going through behind the scenes.
But I admit that I prefer people who don't show emotions in an dramatic way, for example in my work there are a lot of people who start screaming and who are clearly exaggerating and I have to control myself not to laugh.
I'm mostly touched by people who are more reserved with their emotions because I identify with them.
How do you express your emotions? Can you tell how your expressions affect others in a positive or negative way?
I never had emotional support so I like to deal with my emotions alone.
I don't know if I consider myself a very emotional person , I have my moments where I start crying for many different reasons because I kept a lot of things inside me, I also have days where I'm in a very bad mood without knowing why and I start being mean to close people.
I'm a very private person, I don't like exaggerated demonstrations, a lot of "i love you" and compliments make me bored and seem fake.
Are you able to change your demeanor in order to interact with your environment in a more or less suitable way? How do you determine what is suitable?
These questions make me think that I don't know myself that well.
I think so, I know how to dress up and not talk about inappropriate things even if I make some mistakes, like smiling in the middle of a funeral because my colleague told a joke or showing involuntary annoyance when someone try to do a lot of small talk with me.
In what situations do you feel others' feelings? Can you give examples of when you wanted to improve the mood of others?
I am fickle in many aspects of my life, empathy is one of them, sometimes I have a lot and sometimes I don't have any. It really depends on my relationship with people and how much I like their personality. I'm very suspicious of other people's motives.
My father doesn't usually cry a lot and he's not manipulative at all. I suspect he's a Lse or sli, so when he cries I know it's real and it affects me, in other hand my mother is manipulative and when she starts crying I always think it's fake or that she deserves it (maybe she is a iei).
Section 6
How can you tell how much emotional space there is between yourself and others? How can you affect this space?
Complicated, I wouldn't say I'm completely blind to how others feel about me, but I'm definitely very pessimistic and because of that I like to be reassured about what my loved ones think about me.
I'm very suspicious of others and sometimes I start overthinking that everyone hates me or wants to hurt me. As soon as a friend has a more negative reaction, sometimes because of their own problems that have nothing to do with me, I get hurt or I start trying to guess what they are thinking about me and as you can imagine it's almost always negative. Although now I'm starting to try to be less negative because you never know what others are thinking or feeling.
How do you determine how much you like or dislike someone else? How does this affect your relationships?
By personality, values, way of seeing the world, I like people I identify whit and I can trust. People with character that I consider dubious I try to not interact.
I have a very small group because I have a set pattern, at the same time they are different obviously but what unites us is that we are all very open-minded and we don't like to meddle in other people's lives.
How do you move from a distant relationship to a close one? What are the distinguishing characteristics of a close relationship?
We start talking, I like what they are about and it's that simple. Sometimes it takes me 3 months to consider someone a friend, other times I only see the person 3 times and I already know I can trust them.
It has happened once that I stayed in a "friendship" because I wanted company at school, but I stopped seeing him as a friend and started seeing him as an acquaintance.
How do you know that you are a moral person? Where do you draw your morality from? Do you believe others should share your beliefs on what's moral? Why?
I am a moral person in my own criteria. There are people who follow the morality of religion, others follow the morality of a group... Some of them I consider wrong and stupid, but I just don't make friends with these people and it's as simple as that.
The only thing that everyone should do is to respect others because it made life easier for everyone and it's such a simple thing if everyone does it.
Someone you care about is acting distant to you. How do you know when this attitude is a reflection of your relationship?
I don't know, it depends on the situation.
But I try not to take it personally (don't mean that I don't take it, on the contrary but I try to suppress it). What I do is that I ask what happened or i leave them alone. I don't like is chasing after others so I've ended friendships without knowing why, the person just stops talking to me and I take that as a sign.
Section 7
How can you tell someone has the potential to be a successful person? What qualities make a successful person and why?
I would say that one of the things is to have the ability to always be ahead of others, to have that special touch that some people have.
Where would you start when looking for a new hobby? How do you find new opportunities and how do you choose which would be best?
I already have ideas of hobbys that I want to try, so I would look in my internal library and choose the one that I felt like doing. I like manual and simple activities (I'm not an artist) I've done canoeing and I don't hate extreme activities, but I don't think it's considered a hobby and I don't know if I would do it that often either.
How do you interpret the following statement: "Ideas don't need to be feasible in order to be worthwhile." Do you agree or disagree, and why?
Ideas have to start somewhere, at first they may not make sense, but then when more ideas come up and they are molded, they can become a possibility. Or maybe people just want to come up with crazy ideas and that's okay too.
Describe your thought process when relating the following ideas: swimming, chicken, sciences. Do you think that others would draw the same or different connections?
I didn't make any connection, unlike the guy I took this questionnaire from. I just read the sentences and nothing else.
How would you summarize the qualities that are essential to who you are? What kind of potential in you has yet to be actualized and why?
The part that I fear the most, having to describe myself even more with qualities (gives me the impression that I'm bragging). This is going to feel more like a list than a text, sorry for the disappointment. I'm faithful, I like to make people's lives easier (if they haven't done me wrong), I strive to do what I promised, I hate being in debt.
I definitely have to improve my charisma and try to get along with new people more until I get used to it and don't get so bored.
Section 8
How do people change? Can you describe how various events change people? Can others see those changes?
Everything changes people, the personality you have today was the result of all the moments of your life and also of your brain (parts more or less developed and this also affects).
We're always changing every day, it's just that we're so used to the changes that sometimes we don't even notice it.
Sometimes I go through a similar situation that has happened before and I see how much I have changed in the way I deal with the problem.
How do you feel and experience time? Can time be wasted? How?
I think time is the most powerfyl weapon, you learn to deal with things with time, time brings peace but also chaos, time makes life evolve both positively and negatively, time kills you but also brings life. Time is truly the most important thing there is, when a certain moment passes you can no longer go back and fix things.
It all depends on the point of view, today you can consider it something important but later you see that it was a waste of time, the important thing to keep in mind is to think about the future because what has already happened cannot be changed.
Is there anything that cannot be described with words? What is it? If so, how can we understand what it is if language does not work?
Language is limiting, you can indulge feelings in others through sentences but you are never sure how others will interpret it.
I would say feelings and experience is one of the things, you have to go through them and let others go through too.
How do you anticipate events unfolding? How can you observe such unfoldments in your environment?
I don't really know, I think from what has already happened, from the people involved, from myself.
I sometimes tend to try to predict things and I like to be prepared for all eventualities because it makes me feel safer, but I also know that predictions are not 100% certain. I've missed opportunities because of this.
In what situations is timing important? How do you know the time is right to act? How do you feel about waiting for the right moment ?
It depends on when I've decided it's time to act.
I'll use the example of my driver's license, I started getting my license 1 year before the end of school but then I decided to finish school first to focus on my license after (also out of laziness I admit). My parents bothered me a lot because I needed to get the license but I only did it when I saw that I needed it to work and I couldn't leave it for later anymore (can expire). It was a bad choice, but I needed a reason to have motivation.
I finally finished this, I couldn't take it anymore. Thank you for reading this far ;)

2024.05.16 13:22 usrdef Docker public IP restriction, domain only

I've done quite a bit of Googling, with no super useful info, unless I'm looking in the wrong places.
I want to ensure that some of my docker containers can only be accessed via domain, and not by IP. When doing this with nginx, I can just add a default rule at the top to catch all connections that don't match a host, but I cannot seem to find out how this can be configured with docker.
My container has a bridged network created, but that is as far as I get.
Thanks

2024.05.16 13:20 shaneka69 NUMEROLOGY OF MONDAY

Monday is the first day of the work week that many people dread. Not all people dread it, but some. Let's take a look into the Numerology of Monday to decode the energy and what it can be used for to work with it and not against it.
M - this is the 13th letter of the alphabet vibrating at the energy of 4. The energy of 1 is action and the energy of 3 is connecting with others through collaboration. This puts a focus on responsibilities and for most people, it's a work or school day which connects with this. Although it is about being responsible, it's still the energy of 4 which is mellow and controlled energy. O - this is the 15th letter of the alphabet vibrating at the energy of 6 which is about using your creativity constructively to take care of the tasks or duties you need to take care of. 6 is the number of beauty, duty, and routine. N - 14th letter of the alphabet vibrating at the energy of 5. This is about using your energy to be responsible and making space for enjoyment while doing so. 14 is a karmic number, but not when used correctly. As a karmic number, 14 is about someone who ditched their responsibilities and now have to deal with some challeneges(5). Proper use of this energy is using it for creative purposes. D - 4th letter vibrating at the purest energy of 4 which is about calmness, caution, and security. A - vibrating at 1 as the first letter of the alphabet, this is about action and energy. Y - The 25th letter of the alphabet vibrating at the energy of 7, but through cooperation with others(2) and compassion for others(2) and with the use of creativity (5) or even humor(5). Big lover energy as 5 can point to romance and 2 can point to soulmates.
Monday full numerology comes down to 8 and 8 can represent long and drawn out processes, wait times, and pressure. The dreadful energy can be moreso due to this 8 energy. People can work with this energy by being patient as 8 points to tedious tasks. With this insight, you can now simply start expected a little time in between things and pacing yourself. It can seem like a long day or your duties may be plentiful.
This is a day best utilized in a constructive (8) way with the use of wisdom and calculation(7). The 7 is the soul urge influence of Monday based on the vowels. 2 vowels A and O which equals 7. Being calculating and seeking depth will allow you to master the energy of Monday. Use this day to get the most done with your projects or workloads.

2024.05.16 13:18 Huge-Trick-3065 LG dryer self cleaning when drainage connected

I have this dryer rh90v9av2n
The manual says that in order to self clean, it uses water accumulated inside upper tank.
As the condensation happens at the bottom, water pump fills the upper tank when bottom fills up. But instruction says that once you connect the draining hose, water goes directly out of appliance. It does not mention if that water is ever reaching upper tank to do self cleaning. So i assume it never does, so it means self cleaning cannot be performed in such a scenario.
How is it in reality? Maybe manual just summarises the end result and does not bother explaining the process in detail (thus missing the information about whether this water first goes into upper tank and then drains through draining hose)?
I am confused :(

The Pervasive Influence of Social Media on Public Opinion and Individual Behavior

In an age dominated by digital landscapes, social media has emerged as a fundamental force shaping public opinion and individual behavior. This synthesis essay explores the multifaceted impacts of social media platforms, drawing on scholarly articles to analyze their roles in political mobilization, consumer marketing, and interpersonal relationships. The thesis posits that social media significantly alters public discourse and personal interactions, reshaping societal norms and behaviors in profound ways.

Political Influence

Social media has revolutionized political engagement, transforming it into a more dynamic and accessible sphere. According to a study by Bond et al. (2012), Facebook's social messaging significantly increased voter turnout during the 2010 U.S. elections. This phenomenon is largely due to the ability of social platforms to facilitate rapid information dissemination, enabling political movements to mobilize supporters with unprecedented speed and scale. Targeted advertisements and viral campaigning on platforms like Twitter and Facebook not only reach more voters but also allow for more tailored political messaging, enhancing the ability to sway public opinion towards specific ideologies or candidates.

Marketing and Consumer Behavior

Beyond politics, social media has a profound impact on consumer behavior and marketing strategies. As per the research by Chaffey (2019), social media influences up to 71% of consumer buying decisions, particularly among younger demographics. This influence stems from the powerful combination of targeted advertising and user-generated content, creating a persuasive environment of social proof. Consumers are increasingly reliant on reviews and social endorsements, which platforms like Instagram and Pinterest readily provide. This shift not only affects individual purchasing behaviors but also dictates market trends and brand strategies, making social media a crucial element in modern marketing ecosystems.

Interpersonal Relationships

The impact of social media extends into the realm of interpersonal relationships. Studies by Turkle (2011) suggest that while social media facilitates more frequent communication, it also leads to more superficial interactions. The constant connectivity offered by social media platforms like Snapchat and WhatsApp reshapes how relationships are formed and maintained, often prioritizing breadth over depth. This shift can lead to a decrease in face-to-face interactions and potentially weaken the emotional bond between individuals, altering the fabric of social connectivity.

Synthesis Section

The political, commercial, and social interactions mediated by social media have collectively engineered a new societal norm, where public opinion and individual behavior are increasingly influenced by online interactions. The synthesis of these aspects reveals that while social media offers numerous benefits, such as increased engagement and consumer insights, it also poses challenges like echo chambers in politics and decreased interpersonal communication quality. Understanding these influences is crucial for mitigating potential negatives while harnessing the positive aspects of social media.

Conclusion

This essay has examined the extensive influence of social media on public opinion and individual behavior, highlighting its role in reshaping political engagement, marketing strategies, and interpersonal relationships. Social media platforms, by virtue of their design and widespread use, serve not only as tools for information dissemination but also as shapers of contemporary culture and behavior. As we navigate this digital age, it becomes imperative to foster awareness and develop strategies that enhance the benefits of social media while addressing its challenges. Further research and proactive digital literacy efforts are essential to ensure that social media serves to enhance rather than detract from societal progress.

Global Crowdfunding: Cultural Insights
https://preview.redd.it/x6ew0obdvr0d1.png?width=1400&format=png&auto=webp&s=a5221bdce703d803957177a61be48c49c6770219

Harnessing Cultural Diversity: Strategies for Global Expansion in Equity Crowdfunding

Equity crowdfunding is revolutionizing how startups and small businesses are funded, broadening access beyond traditional investor circles by utilizing the power of the internet. This approach not only drives innovation by injecting capital into early-stage ventures but also offers investors worldwide the chance to directly influence and benefit from the success of new businesses. This democratization of funding accelerates industry growth and paves the way for substantial financial returns.
The Crucial Role of Cross-Cultural Understanding
For crowdfunding platforms aiming for global reach, understanding and adapting to cultural differences is essential. These differences profoundly impact investor behavior, affecting both the perception and success of campaigns globally. Platforms skilled in cultural navigation can craft strategies that effectively communicate with diverse audiences, meet varied investor expectations, and boost international operational efficiency.
Strategic Insights for Global Crowdfunding Platforms
This discussion explores how cultural factors influence investment behaviors within the equity crowdfunding arena, offering vital insights that platforms can use to refine their global outreach strategies. By appreciating these cultural dynamics, platforms are better positioned to connect with and engage a culturally varied investor base, optimizing their operations across borders.

Cultural Insights and Investment Behaviors

Understanding Cultural Dimensions and Their Impact
Investor interactions and strategic decisions at crowdfunding platforms are heavily influenced by cultural dimensions. A closer examination reveals how individualism, uncertainty avoidance, and power distance play pivotal roles:
  • Individualism vs. Collectivism: Predominantly individualistic cultures, such as the United States and Western Europe, show a high engagement in crowdfunding driven by personal achievement and financial gain. In contrast, collectivist societies like Japan and many Latin American countries focus on community and familial benefits, supporting projects that deliver social improvements and collective returns.
  • Uncertainty Avoidance: Cultures with high uncertainty avoidance (e.g., Germany and Japan) seek structured, risk-averse investment opportunities, favoring platforms that offer thorough project descriptions and clear regulatory compliance. Conversely, cultures with low uncertainty avoidance (e.g., the United States and Australia) are more inclined to embrace the risks associated with innovative ventures.
  • Power Distance: In countries with high power distance, such as Malaysia and the Philippines, there is a preference for hierarchical structures and authoritative decision-making in crowdfunding campaigns. On the other hand, cultures with low power distance, like Denmark and New Zealand, support more egalitarian and team-oriented projects.

Strategic Adaptations for Crowdfunding Platforms

Effective engagement with diverse cultural groups requires platforms to adapt their strategies meticulously:
  • Marketing Adaptations: Marketing efforts should align with the cultural values of each target audience, highlighting personal rewards in individualistic societies and community benefits in collectivist cultures.
  • Project Selection: Platforms should curate projects that resonate with the cultural and regulatory norms of each market, selecting technology-driven ventures for cultures with low uncertainty avoidance and socially impactful initiatives for collectivist societies.
  • Communication Strategies: Communication should reflect the local power distance, with formal and authoritative styles in high power distance regions and more casual, inclusive approaches in low power distance areas.
These adaptations help platforms to successfully navigate the complex landscape of global crowdfunding, attracting a diverse investor base through culturally aligned marketing strategies, project selection, and communication methods.

Empirical Insights and Case Studies: Successful Global Strategies

Regional Case Studies Demonstrating Success
  • East Asia: In regions like South Korea, Japan, and China, government incentives and high technology adoption rates shape the crowdfunding environment. Platforms that align with these factors — offering clear, outcome-based projects and leveraging modern technology — tend to succeed.
  • North America: The entrepreneurial culture and low power distance in the U.S. and Canada create a favorable environment for innovative, high-risk projects. Platforms thrive by promoting projects with the potential for substantial returns.
  • Europe: The diverse regulatory landscape across Europe requires platforms to be highly adaptable; those that successfully navigate the European Crowdfunding Service Providers Regulation (ECSPR) gain access to a wider investor base across the continent.
Strategic Recommendations for Navigating Cross-Cultural Crowdfunding
Successful global expansion in crowdfunding involves more than just understanding different cultures; it requires a proactive approach to integrate these insights into every facet of platform operations:
  • Cultural Customization: Conduct detailed cultural research to tailor marketing strategies and project selections, ensuring they resonate with the local audience’s values and preferences.
  • Local Partnerships: Collaborate with local businesses and cultural experts to gain deeper market insights and enhance credibility within the region.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Maintain strict adherence to local regulations to build trust and ensure smooth operations.
  • Educational Initiatives: Develop culturally tailored educational content to help investors understand the nuances of crowdfunding, focusing on local concerns and investment conditions.

Conclusion: Embracing Cultural Diversity for Global Success

The journey towards global expansion in equity crowdfunding is deeply intertwined with the ability to embrace and integrate cultural diversity.

2024.05.16 13:16 philip_sterne Building a cluster for university students

I am a CS professor who will be running a distributed systems tutorial next semester. Now I have some practical experience with distributed systems (eg. Kafka, Zookeeper), but I have very little sysadmin experience. So I will describe my rough situation, and I'm asking for any and all of your opinions/suggestions/links etc.
I have a little 3-node Proxmox cluster that I would like to use as a test-bed for the students to mess around on. (There are roughly 10 students per semester taking this tutorial, but if it goes well I would open it up to ±60 students in related courses.)
My two main requirements are: 1. Low maintenance. I don't have time during the semester to do much maintenance (eg. scanning home drives to see who is over quota, adding new user ssh keys). 2. Reasonably resilient to dumb-assery. Students will be learning lots of new concepts for the first time, and I don't want one student to take down the whole cluster for everyone else.
I am also aware that there is only 1Gbps ethernet connecting the nodes, but I kinda view that as a feature, rather than a bug. I want students to think of network access as slow, while local access is fast.
My current thoughts: 1. I would like to have a central home directory that is mounted on each node. (So any files you create in your home directory are immediately available everywhere) 2. I think LDAP is the right solution to do authentication, and sync UIDs and GIDs between the nodes? (Although setting it up does look quite daunting!) 3. I'd hack together some sort auto-signup solution. eg. A google form (limited to university email addresses) where students can upload their ssh pub keys. Run a cron job which periodically downloads the backing spreadsheets and creates the users / updates ssh keys as appropriate. 4. Each node has an nvme drive, and a hard drive. So I was planning on storing all the vms on the nvme drive, with a passthrough mount of the hard drive on /data. This means that students would only ever be able to modify things in two places, home and data. 5. Each node can run a single Ubuntu VM for students to work on. One of the nodes is beefier than the others, so it could also run an openldap server, and serve the shared home directory.
Please critique! What am I missing? Is this too complicated, and if so, how can I make it simpler? Have you done something similar? What advice would you give me?
Obligatory meme for reading so far:

2024.05.16 13:14 HighwayParticular245 Tekken 4 Characters: All Amazing Powerful Characters Of Tekken 4 Game

We have given a lot of information about Takken game in our previous few articles, now in this article we will tell you about Tekken 4 Characters and will also tell you what are the qualities of these characters and how they work. Actually, every player of the game is amazing and is famous for his own movements, but one of them is Jin Kazama, who is the most popular among the people, most of the people use this player while playing the game, because Jin has a lot of skills. It is considered to be a more powerful character and this is the reason why people play with it very well.
Magic Tekken 4 is a free action game from WB Balinco Studio Team. It’s an indie fighting game that, despite having Tekken in its name, is not connected to the huge Bandai Namco franchise. There is no base in this game, only eight characters sharing almost the same moves. Although it features full 3D rendering of both characters and backgrounds, Magic Tekken 4 has limited replayability or entertainment value. It feels shallow and repetitive, especially because it has no concept or uniqueness that stands out. Makes the character different.
The fourth main installment in the Tekken video game franchise, developed and published by Namco, it was released as an arcade game. in 2001 and in 2002 on the PlayStation 2, with the tagline A New Century of Fighting. The game introduced significantly changed gameplay and mechanics compared to its predecessors; However, it was praised for its highly realistic graphics and visuals for its time, as well as its cinematic ending. Tekken 4 is notably the first canon game where the three main protagonists of the series, Heihachi Mishima, Kazuya Mishima, and Jin Kazama, appear together.

2024.05.16 13:14 Entire_Brother2257 Double standards pottery and polygonal masonry.

Double standards pottery and polygonal masonry.
Pottery sheds are often used to determine age and origin. Whilst polygonal masonry ruins are said to be unrelated.
https://preview.redd.it/53w6q69rur0d1.png?width=1298&format=png&auto=webp&s=a958e68fefb9eb6a3fdd0225277e315087473bcc
Even if pottery styles require nearly zero skill to make, whilst polygonal masonry demands immense know-how to build.
Or despite pottery can be made by an isolated potter in a couple of hours, and polygonal masonry involves thousands of hours from expert masons.
Sometimes, the connection is made when pottery is found very far from its said origin, across continents (or the Mediterranean sea), but cyclopean masonry sites that are only 100 km apart from one another (example around Rome) are said to be unrelated or dated with several centuries of difference.
For requiring much more work, and skill it seems reasonable to assume the ruins of cyclopean/polygonal masonry to be a stronger indication of contact and dating, than a shed of pottery. But no.
The double standard in which hundreds of meters of polygonal masonry are discarded as irrelevant, versus the excessive importance attributed to a simple line drawn onto a vase is illogical. And a lot of illogical conclusions can come out of this double standard.
Here’s a case.

2024.05.16 13:11 Extreme-Gap-911 I 24M need help figuring out what to for my relationship with 23F

I 23M need helping figuring out what to do for the love of my live, 23F and if you guys really think there’s a chance we can be together, am I crazy? We were together for almost three years, lived together for about two years. She moved two hours from her family and friends to be with me.
We were madly in love for the majority of the relationship, we have been inseparable, we have been each others rocks and we have had such an amazing connection that we both agree on. Unfortunately for the past several months we have not been doing great and it is a result of both of us not being fully healed from past trauma. I lost something extremely important to me fairly recently after she moved in, my cat, and it took a huge toll on me. He was there for me through a lot of awful abuse when I was kid. I had no real family or support system, we lost him on the 4th of july after we came back from fireworks he just started violently seizing, we got to the animal hospital 30 minutes later at about 1 am and he kept suffering I could hear him scream from outside. He unfortunately passed. He was only 7. It took a huge toll on me.
I struggled not to shut down, I didn’t get mean or treat her like shit, I just didn’t have enough in me to go the extra mile. I’ve been struggling to try and build a future for us, I got us this apartment, and I’ve just tried to buckle down thinking that it was enough for us. Just barely functioning felt like so much effort that anything beyond that was so exhausting but I was always so happy to be around her. She has always been amazing and I never failed to recognize that I just haven’t always known how to show it. I’ve never had an example of how to love, I just have been learning as I go. Our love languages have not always seen eye to eye but that doesn’t mean for a second I have not or do not want to learn how to be the best man for her I can. I love her so fucking purly and I want nothing more than to be able to marry this woman.
I hate that we have gotten to this point. She broke things off with me because she didn’t feel the love like we used to have it, and I didn’t either but I have never loved her any less. She is still staying here and we have been very civil, we’ve had some very good conversations and even went on a couple dates to try to spark the love again and it worked, but made her more confused and sad. She says she still loves and cares about me and her actions prove it to be true, but she says she needs space for us to grow. Do you think it’s possible we can be together again? I have been thinking about this for months. I know what I want. This is not my first love but I have definitely never loved like this, and neither has she. We do truly have a very special bond and I don’t want to lose that. We have been each others best friends for three years. I can reply to any comments with any questions. I appreciate any advice I can get.

2024.05.16 13:11 digital_wiz How We Scaled a Hair Extension Brand using Facebook Ads and SEO to give $80,000 ROI in 6 Months (Detailed Breakdown)

Hello Redditors,
This is an incredible success story of how we helped a client achieve incredible results in just four months, generating an $80,000 return on investment (ROI) with a combination of SEO and Facebook Ads. We have completed many successful projects and there's a certain satisfaction in seeing our strategies translate to such tangible growth. I have tried to keep this post extremely detailed so that it can be beneficial for experienced marketers and newcomers alike.
The Client: Hair Extension E-commerce Brand
Revenue Split Between SEO and Fb ads: 3:2
Average Order Value: $350
Total Revenue(6 months): $140,000
Expenses(6 months): Product Cost + Delivery cost + Team + Agency Fees + Ads Cost+ Website Optimization + Packaging: $60000
Basic Company Background:
The brand was being run by a Mother-Daughter duo for the past 3 months. They had a shopify website with average structure and were struggling with facebook ads themselves. Although they made few physical sales due to friends and relatives but were unable to utilize the digital potential of their business as such. After trying facebook ads for some time they wanted a reliable digital marketing team to work with and they were recommended to us by one of our other customers who has a service based business. Initially we connected majorly for facebook ads but after the initial discussion when were doing research from our side, we found that there is huge potential in SEO for this niche so we suggested that we should prepare a proper website on wordpress and focus on both SEO and Ads parallelly as, although Ads will give an initial boost to the business but SEO will bring some stability and help in building a sustainable business.
Facebook Ads Campaign Structure:
Ads Creatives and Brand Positioning:
It's important to note that after deep research we could find that a major share our hair extensions customers are females aged between 21-45 so we did not actively position our brand as solving problems of low hair volume, but instead we focused on how the products ads style, gives a much better look and you can try new hairstyles and hair colors daily. Also since almost all the demographics in this age group are working, we tested a professional look angle as well which gave us decent results. In ad creatives as well as on the website we made the daughter as the face of the product as we want to slowly grow her instagram as well which can add another organic and sustainable stream of revenue. She shoots before and after transition videos, general product application videos and other videos for ads according to the target audience and brand positioning strategy we discussed earlier. Instead of making long videos focused on product details a lot, we made short but captivating videos which can appeal to the young audience’s fashion sense.
Key Takeaways from FB Ads:
Mostly Meta Ads or Any other marketing tactic is just a traffic source but conversion will basically happen by how well you are able to communicate your product to the audience through your website. Its is necessary to have a smooth user journey, attractive offers, crisp information and right brand positioning on the website.
It is extremely important to make data driven decisions and track customer journeys meticulously. Always rely on your own tracking or google analytics to avoid the potential unreliability of Facebook Ads Manager.
Seo Strategy
If you don’t already know this, SEO is all about how effectively you can strategize your content and technical efforts keeping a bigger picture in mind. After our initial keyword research we could find that the average Kd of the important keywords was low when it comes to commercial keywords which were directly related to the business.
It's important to note that since the website was being built after our onboarding only so it was easy for us to structure the website according to the SEO strategy that we prepared.
At every stage we had meetings with the developer to ensure that there are no technical issues that will hinder the SEO growth and future and also we structured the website to be SEO friendly. We built separate pages for all the product categories and after through keyword research we added content to those pages so that the pages itself can rank for commercial keywords.
After the website was ready we audited it for technical issues(Like mobile friendliness, H1 tags, canonical tags, etc) we started focusing on the content. We wanted to establish our website as a trusted authority in the hair extensions and hair care industry in general.
Since the website was completely new, initially we created blogs(2-3 times per week) around informational keywords with low KD purely for increasing our website authority and bringing the initial traffic on the website. We have seen that usually people start stressing about approaching big websites for guest postings since the first day itself but if your keyword research and content is solid, that is not required in the beginning. Initially we focused on profile creations, image submissions, pdf submissions, internal linking in the content, web 2.0 backlinks etc and this was more than enough for us to rank for low difficulty keywords and increase our DA to a decent level so that our category pages can rank for low difficulty keywords.
Here I would like to include a tip, many times people are worried that what if the backlink that they have created doesn't get indexed. In the initial phase we work really hard when it comes to what we call as maturing our backlinks as this is the major factor for ranking on low difficulty keywords. So basically what we do is, we make backlinks of our web 2.0 backlinks itself which helps the primary backlink in getting indexed which ultimately helps with our website DA.
Also many people have been asking us in our previous posts how we structure our blog since I talk a lot about content quality, see it's not as hard and it doesn't involve a lot of research at least in the initial phase when you just have to rank on low difficulty keywords. In this phase usually what we do is study the top 5 ranking blogs on the particular keyword and make sure that we include more content and more subheadings then them. Also we try to find opportunities to include tables or charts wherever possible, we include good quality images(original if possible) and at this stage internal linking is very very important so we focus on that as well. In later stages although the basic strategy for framing the blogs remains same, overall content strategy varies a lot from business to business and requires a lot of strategizing depending on the brand positioning goals.
So after we were able to rank for low difficulty informational keywords and our Website DA reached a decent level due to our backlinking efforts, we started writing content around the fashion advice and common problems which people face related to hair in general. But as discussed earlier, we wanted to keep our brand positioning fashion centric, so even while writing about common problems we applied a positive and solution centric approach. We strategically placed internal links to our product pages in the content and tested popups with offers as well. Apart from this, we started guest posting as well at this stage. For finding websites for guest posting we used SEMrush’s backlink gap analysis tool and created a segregated list of blogs that we can reach out to based on their content quality and DA. By this time the store started generating decent revenue from ads and SEO so the client was completely onboard with reaching out to blogs for guest posting. Guest posting and overall strategic SEO application started generating a good amount of traffic for us and in 3-4 months the revenue generated due to SEO surpassed our Ads revenue as well.
Advantages of Combining SEO and Paid Ads
While Facebook Ads played a crucial role in launching the brand and driving initial traffic, SEO has emerged as the primary driver of sustainable growth. This approach allowed us to:
SEO efforts are always ongoing but we are really satisfied with the base that we have built and we are really looking forward to working with keywords with higher KD and generating more revenue with SEO In the upcoming months. Although we will keep running ads in future as well mostly for awareness purposes but the major revenue will be generated from our SEO efforts. Apart from this, as we mentioned earlier, we are looking to actively start the Social Media efforts as well from the next month itself. We will be looking to target Instagram and Tiktok in the initial phase and we believe in 2-3 months social media will contribute towards 25% of our revenue which will grow rapidly.
Thankyou For Reading!

2024.05.16 13:10 DanielBroom How is the flashing sequence initiated over UART on a MCU?

How is the flashing sequence initiated over UART on a MCU?
Hi!
I am struggling to understand how the "flashing sequence" (i.e. uploading new firmware) of a MCU (that has a UART bootloader) is initiated, using UART as comm interface. Googling "Arduino uart flashing" gives several results showing the following diagram:
https://preview.redd.it/8k5bmcbmsr0d1.png?width=599&format=png&auto=webp&s=07419c7073a2bbf057abbc7a1bba407b6e9e74bf
Only TX and TX is connected to the USB Serial device. How is the flashing initiated? Isn't it required to pull the Reset pin low during/before flashing?
If I am using a UART ports of a microcontroller, is that port then locked to only be used for programming/flashing, and not for communicating debug prints etc. to the host PC?
I am also confused how the Arduino UNO works, where you can use the Serial port of the arduino to print stuff etc., communicating with your host PC with UART (through the virtual COMM port), and then you can also use that same port for programming the Arduino.
Maybe the secret sauce is because of this connection of PD7 of the USB MCU, that is connected through a capacitor to the Reset pin?

2024.05.16 13:09 JFinSmith Some advice and some questions...

Some advice and some questions...
So I'm going to start off by saying this is one of the best watches I've ever owned. I have the GT4. Just got it recently from Amazon. Setting it up was a bitch especially since finding detailed information written in English on how to get it working was impossible. How did I do it?
Well first off I started off by downloading a VPN. In my case I just used the surfshark app because I have an account with them. I put My phone in airplane mode and then turned the Wi-Fi back on then connected to a network in the UK.
Then I downloaded the Huawei app store from the Huawei website. I then proceeded to download the Huawei health app. From there I just followed the general installation instructions, selecting anything that would help me pretend that I was in the UK when setting it up.
Once it was all set up everything worked as needed. Including being able to use features locked out of the US, particularly like the ability to download watch faces. I downloaded as many as I could while I was still connected to the UK VPN. However, once I turned it off I did not lose any functionality.

*My question! *

When I'm in the Huawei health app and I'm looking at notifications, it's a pain in the ass to have to select every single app, but in this screen I can see there are multiple notification icons. However on my phone every time I get a notification the icon is always the messages icon. Is there any way to fix this?
https://preview.redd.it/gcghuzbotr0d1.jpg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=03301013cd89ace1072ac0c922366d9647bd297a
I hope this helps some people and I hope some people can help me! Thank you!
