I am evaluating hypervisor options after the pricing increases from Broadcom. There doesn't appear to be as much information on olvm, and I don't think there is a free/trial version (or is there?).
Any insights how it compares to proxmox and vsphere would be greatly appreciated. Especially iSCSI SAN support. Proxmox has LVM over shared iSCSI which is useable, but far more restrictions compared to vmware vmfs (no snapshots, no thin provisioning, no sharing between different clusters, etc). How well does olvm support shared iSCSI SAN?

I wanted to share a few things about the game mechanics that can be utilized to help make your game easier. They may be exploity but still worth sharing for those of you who want to try.
That being said, if anything has been patched out already or in the future, feel free to let me know, and I would love to see what other things you guys have noticed

1. Abomination Makers
   You can use the Fire Elixer or your reload with Shock n Load to hit the targets easily. Fire elixer is definitely preferred as you don’t need to time out reloads and it will just automatically hit each target as it pops up
   
2. Teleporters
   I noticed on Sker Hotel that if you teleport it will reset your health. This makes it pretty useful to train in the Grand Hall and teleport quickly (to the theater for example) then teleport back. If you wait a few seconds and allow the zombies to spawn before teleporting back, you can usually get them all to come out from behind the stairs in the grand hall and kill a bunch at once with the howler Wanted to point out that on hotel you would not want to utilize the teleporter to the labyrinth if not necessary as the teleport back option is all the way on the other side of the maze. I haven’t tested this on other maps but I imagine the teleporters would work the same
   
3. Screen Capture
   This one isn’t really an exploit and may require you to install your own software if you are on PC, but consoles have built in screen capture. When you’re doing the Easter eggs and need to remember the code for a puzzle or password or anything you need to remember, don’t be afraid to use that as you can go back and see what the code was if you forgot. This one probably goes without saying but is something I often forget I can use. It also is probably more useful in single player as you can pause the game
   

These were just a few things I found, but I’d love to hear any other things you guys have found that could potentially be utilized whether it be an exploit or just general tips and tricks

Holy priests are arguably one of the more boring healers in Warcraft to the point that people often refer to them as the ‘default’ healer. I’m sure there are more deep, underlying issues that Holy has but I wanted to try tackling them on a purely thematic level with some minor thoughts on a more gameplay-oriented level.
I aim to make more interesting spells that interact in a fun way that gives the holy spec a little more flavor than, “The default RPG healer”.
Quick preemptive self-defense though. This is all in good fun and purely theoretical. It’s always been interesting for me to speculate what a class or spec could be and rather than hoarding it all to myself, I thought it would be more interesting to see some other people's opinions and possibly inspire others to do the same. With that said...

• Make the Holy Priest a little more bard-inspired

Some of Holy’s biggest cooldowns are Divine Hymn and Hymn of Hope (Renamed to Symbol of Hope now). Singing to help your allies. You’ll notice other spells in the toolkit like shadow WORD pain and power WORD shield. Shadow has a spell called SILENCE for god’s sake. Basically, the implication is that priests are using their voices to channel their spells somehow. Why not...do more of that? Because I can’t lie, having several spells named “Heal” with different variations is killing me inside.
Plus, a bunch of the talent node names already lean into this! A few notable examples are:
Voice of Harmony
Healing Chorus
Gales of Song
Divine Word
Resonant Words
All the Holy Word Spells
Let’s make it so Holy is all about literally singing the Light’s praises. After all, if Shadow and Holy are canonically on two ends of the spectrum with Discipline being the proverbial middle ground, let’s really have Holy Priest’s be truly ‘Devout Feeling’ with their spell names. Double points if the spells end with a sung note or maybe a little arpeggio of a harp or something.
Let’s go through a few examples I’ve thought of and any non-obvious reasons behind each decision.
“Heal” -> “Holy Solo”
“Flash Heal” -> “Divine Etude” (An Etude is a short music piece)
“Prayer of Healing” -> “Holy Motet” (A motet is mainly a vocal musical composition, the name describes the movement of the different voices against one another)
“Circle of Healing” -> “Sacred Cantata” (A Cantata, (from Italian cantare, “to sing”), originally, a musical composition intended to be sung, as opposed to a sonata, a composition played instrumentally)
“Renew” -> “Grace Note” (An extra note added as an embellishment and not essential to the harmony or melody)
And now, I’ve saved my favorite for last. Its effect is decent but the name is so uninspired…
“Trail of Light”? More like... “Light Motif”!
A light Motif is a dominant recurring theme and what’s more dominant and recurring than spam healing?
The point is that there are so many possibilities with having the Holy priest being the spec that heals with singing, and unlike trying to shoehorn bards in as a new class, it makes some sense here.

• Holy’s New Groove

Ok, so all this stuff so far is just replacing words for other words and I know what you’re thinking…
“This doesn’t do anything to fix the fact that Holy is still quite dull compared to other healers!”
You’re dead right. The Priest’s Discipline spec currently rewards thinking ahead of what the encounter you’re facing will bring while Holy just sits back and collects red solo cups after the party is over. Let’s change that.
My main problem is with its mastery. Don’t get me wrong, it’s very “Good” when you’re thinking about the throughput and the pure numbers but it’s also a very “set it and forget it” style of gameplay and reminds me of the Shaman’s sometimes similarly maligned mastery that dishes out healing depending on how much health is missing. There’s no thinking required and frankly, Shaman have a much more interesting toolkit to justify it.
I think we would all prefer it to be more interesting like how Paladins generate more healing based on how close they are to the action which allows them to get in close with their other melee abilities anyway and encourages them to help out with the DPS. Excellent design decision. Win win win.
So the first thing is to fix the mastery and the new system I am proposing is…
“Mastery: Chord Progression”
To start, your basic heal will apply an effect to a targeted party member. This effect will have a very long uptime which can stack called Holy Note. (I’m personally imagining a buff that has a golden crotchet note with a little wing instead of the tail). Now your first Holy Note merely exists on top of the target and does a small heal over time in a similar being to how the mastery currently works, increasing with how much mastery you have.
A second heal to the target will apply a second stack and increase the stacked effect. This will change the buff icon to be two crotchets, stacked on top of one another. This will, again, increase the heal over time effect.
A 3rd heal to the target will complete the stack and heal the target with an effect called “Holy Chord” that heals more depending upon your mastery stat. Instead of just spamming heals over and over again mindlessly to get that powerful Holy Word spell you want back in case you need it, you instead work up chords on friendly targets. Targets that don’t require constant spamming will have heal over time effects up near constantly whereas targets that are dying and in need of healing will receive direct heals instead!
The effect is largely the same but with a little more thought and interactivity involved. If a target has two Holy Notes ready but is only at, say, 70% health, you can wait and focus on other party members until they drop a little more, and then you complete the chord.
So that’s the base outline of the spec. The long uptime of the buff rewards not finishing off the chord until you actually need it and still makes it usable in PvP.
The best part about it is that if we don’t want to be rid of the cooldown reduction mechanic that Holy is currently working with, it can fit very neatly over the top without changing anything too fundamental. The Holy Words might need some very slight tweaking to work but I don’t see any immediate problems with this system.

• New and Reworked Spells

Now, Holy needs some new cooldowns. Over the years, Holy has gone from having one of the most well-rounded toolkits to one that looks very limited in comparison. Shaman's can heal by sharing health percentages. Paladin’s have all their auras, Glimmers, and immunities. Evokers can fly and bombard people with healing, heal through stuns and other CC, and reverse recent damage taken. Monks are dashing around like no one's business and healing by punching them in the face. Let’s find some good stuff to give the Holy Priest.
Guardian Spirit stays right where it is. It’s extremely thematic to the spec identity by this point and I think it works well with the Holy Note system since you can leave a target with Guardian Spirit to die while you work on other targets with Holy Notes in the meantime.
Hymn of Hope (Not Symbol, change it back) can also stay because its raid and PvP utility is interesting and works collaboratively with other healers and DPS. A good singer should strengthen and work off those around them, right? It works thematically with this Bard theming we’ve got going on. Plus, having to drop it isn’t nearly as painful as having to quit Divine Hymn early. Speaking of which.
The first thing to change is Divine Hymn itself! Sure, on paper it feels very Holyish and it’s certainly quite powerful but ask any Holy Priest what its main flaw is and they won’t hesitate to tell you. You can’t move and nothing is stopping it from being interrupted from an interrupt, a knockback, a stun, or a pull, etc. There are so many instances I can think of where I wanted to press it so badly but I knew it would do more harm than good. Added that it’s often a dead button for me if I ever decide to try using Holy for PvP since in the rare event that I’m not being trained or chain CC’d, it’s so AOE-focused that it often isn’t strong enough to help anyone outside of a Battleground from behind a rock. It requires a PvP talent to make it more worthwhile which is very seldomly picked anyway.
I had a thought after playing Discipline for a while and having Ultimate Penitence available to me. It’s an incredibly fun spell that does a boatload of healing and/or damage while making you immune to CC effects and giving you a huge absorb shield to delay damage to yourself. It’s balanced by having a long cooldown that you can reduce but only by talenting into the following nodes in the tree.
I can’t be the only one who’s noticed that Divine Hymn is basically Ultimate Penitence but drastically weakened and less cool looking to boot.
My idea was to give it the same ‘un-crowd-controllable’ effect as Ultimate Penitence and make it do generally increased healing instead of a stacking effect to increase further healing afterward. The new ‘gimmick’ of it would either be that it would either expel enemies from within a certain radius once, like Anduin’s big bubble of light from the cinematic, or gently push enemies back from the priest as the center point. This would not completely negate adds or an enemy player’s walking speed having any forward momentum, but it would definitely aid in players trying to kite adds when they’re dying or from enemy players in PvP where that little extra distance would make the difference, and would also reward the priests choice in a central location. You could inadvertently push enemies INTO players, after all.
To top all of this off, I would prefer to have this ability further down in the tree to make it feel a bit more impactful of a choice rather than ‘almost’ mandatory’ where it is smack bang in the middle. A lot of spells in talent trees that are sat dead center in the tree feel like they're meant to be picked and I feel like Guardian Spirit should be where Divine Hymn is at the moment, not as close to the level 10 talents as it is currently. For example, Soul Swap for Affliction Warlocks, Invoke Yu’lon/Chi’ji for Mistweaver, Dancing Rune Weapon for Blood Death Knights, and Pillar of Frost for Frost Death Knights. I could go on but the list is pretty exhaustive.
Another thing I would like to change is very synonymous with Holy Priests but something that I think, overall, doesn’t see as much use as we’d like. Primarily because it relies on the priest dying.
Spirit of Redemption is a cool spell, the problem is that unless you take the capstone talent to make you revive afterward or you take the PVP talent to make it into a cooldown in PvP, you don’t really ‘want’ to trigger its activation requirements or have a reliable way of doing so in PvE when you want its effects. I do enjoy that now it allows you to resurrect an ally if you die so someone else can continue the fight but it’s more of a consolation prize or at worst, a reward for bad skill expression. It is also basically a required talent in Solo Shuffle as, if the priest dies, your teammates have 15 seconds to get a kill of their own to win the match or you take the PvP talent as a way more powerful cooldown.
What I would like to do is make the Spirit of Redemption a bigger cooldown spell but give it an obscenely long cooldown so you cannot feasibly use it more than once per fight. Like the Holy Word: Salvation spell without the possibility of cooldown reduction. Because you are losing it upon death, the gimmick here would be that it would last the full 15 seconds, you don’t use mana while casting and you can resurrect a party member instantly in that form(Outside of PvP). This would make the spell more central to the spec rather than as an add-on, free up a PvP talent choice node, and make the battle resurrection more readily available rather than having to wait for your death to use it.
Another such spell we could make SO much more interesting is Divine Star. The one people don’t like taking because who the hell doesn’t WANT to take Halo, right? Whether it’s effective in whatever format you’re playing in, it’s much more visually interesting and it just FEELS powerful, y’know?
Now to fix this, I’m going to do none of the work and instead do what Blizzard should have done by taking an idea from their own IP…Anduin’s Divine Star in Heroes of the Storm!
Yeah, I know they’ve stopped doing anything with HoTS but still…
In HoTS, it has had a bunch of effects over its tenure depending on the talents you take and most of them would make the spell more interesting in WoW. Maybe when it comes back to the priest, it could explode and heal party members or deal damage as Shadow near the priest since you’re already in close range due to the nature of the spell. Maybe it doesn’t even buff up the healing of the actual spell itself and instead interacts with your other heals by producing a stacking buff per enemy/ally you hit that increases the power of your next Flash Heal or Mind Blast?
We can also improve the lackluster mobility of the Holy Priest outside of always picking Angelic Feather by giving them the reverse Leap of Faith Glyph back as a choice node between the normal Leap of Faith.
The ability to jump to your allies was a worthwhile drawback to not being able to troll people as hard with the Leap of Faith ability when Glyphs were a thing and frankly, I miss it. I find that sometimes I’d rather be able to jump into the fray, especially as a class with an AoE fear effect, and the regular leap of faith doesn’t reward that playstyle as much. I remember back in Shadowlands that having Door of Shadows to jump in, disorient them with the covenant effect, and then Psychic Scream before running back out was actually really interesting and it’s one of the only things I miss from that expansion.
In terms of a new name instead of being a glyph, our new ability “Light Transposition“ will cause you to fly to your friend’s location just like old times. Stick it on a choice node with Leap of Faith and you have two differing playstyles almost immediately.
Now a major problem all healers have to contend with, especially to compete with the Meta of Discipline Priests and Holy Paladins, is providing some level of damage.
Not gonna lie, this is where I’m not sure about this idea since I already don’t ‘love’ the idea of healer’s DPSing and having to work around the base spells of the class now that they’ve been reintroduced has made this a little clunky so I’d love some other suggestions for this part. I’d prefer that healers offered utility that DPS do not have access to rather than extra damage but that seems to be the direction Blizzard is rolling in. Frankly, at the moment, Smite and Holy Fire interact with very little of the Holy toolkit outside of Chastise and Empyreal Blaze and we also have Shadow Word: Pain and Mind Blast. I fear that they will all just be tacked on to the toolbar with no thought and we’ll just have this myriad of spells to randomly fire off when we’re bored.
Personally, as a basic idea, I would consider removing Holy Fire as a button as, in the theme of removing bloat that War Within seems to be addressing, I think having Holy Fire as an add-on effect in the same way as the Monk’s Chi Wave is being remade would be ideal. It could function in the same way as Holy Note in that every three casts of smite would bring down a blast of Holy Fire which would give way to being justified in making Holy Fire feel a bit more impactful. Mind Blast could be used within this to ‘erupt’ the Holy Fire DoT, causing an effect I think I’d like to call “Discordant Notes” on account of mixing the void with the light which would either do additional damage or perhaps cause an extra effect like a slow or AoE damage around the target.
With this in mind, Empyreal Blaze could remain as a talent and cause Smite to proc Holy Fire two additional times when it next triggers its chord effect. Shadow Word: Pain would likely exist as just an extra DoT you can throw on as it is now or it could be applied through Mind Blast to clear up more bar space.
Anyway, those are just some thoughts I’ve had. I’m sure there are flaws in them and I’m looking forward to hearing them but I hope you found them fun to theorise around!

Grabe, ngayon lang ata ako naiyak sa sobrang pagkainis dahil awang awa ako sa tatay ko.
Backstory: December pa lang nagpabook na sakin tatay ko kasi uuwi sana sya ngayon kasi pista sa probinsya nila at umaasa din yung lola ko na super tanda na din na magkikita na sila finally, so yung ticket na yun was supposedly na babayaran ni papa kaya pinili nya is pinakamura which is itong AirAsia.
Since April, nagstart na mag email ng paulit ulit si Airasia dahil puro changes sa flight nya for today. (Sakin pala nageemail si Airasia dahil di naman techy si father, bale gumawa ako account to book him)
Come this day, sobrang excited si father at alam nya nga na paulit ulit yung reschedule kaya nagdecide sya na 7am pa lang ay nasa airport na sya tho ang last detail ng flight nya is 12pm pa.
Pumila sya sa boarding pass, dun pa lang nabadtrip na ko kasi hindi hinonor yung Senior Citizen card nya which btw ay nasa booking ko na additional pero wala sa payment kasi ang instruction ng app is ipapakita upon personal booking then dun ibibigay yung refund. Nagchat sakin si papa sabi ayaw daw ihonor kayabsabi ko let go na kasi wala naman kami magagawa.
Then binigyan na nga daw sya boarding pass which was Gate 16 na 12:10pm yung flight, then that boarding pass was rescheduled again upon waiting to 2pm as announce sa TV nila. While during 12pm, nagemail din sakin tong Airasia na naman na rescheduled to 1:45pm kaya ininform ko si father right away pero ang sagot nya sakin is 2pm pa daw ang flight nya, dun medyo naconfused na ko pero kala ko ok na kasi andun naman sya at I was at the office din during that time kaya di ko din mafocusan chats nya. OFW si papa for 30years kaya tiwala naman ako na alam nya schedule nya sa plane. Come 1:30pm, my father attempted na to enter the gate (16) but hindi sya pinapasok, naiwan na daw sya ng eroplano dahil nasa Gate 15 daw dapat ang flight nya which is mali ng Airasia na inindicate sa boarding pass nya.
Nagalit si papa at ang dami nyang nireklamo pero parang hindi daw sya pinapakinggan tapos ang tanging binigay lang sa kanya is QR code at dun na lang daw magreklamo at dun daw magfile ng refund. Btw CC ko gamit kong payment method and I decided din na hindi na to pabayaran kay papa kasi ginawa ko din tong Christmas gift na lang sa kanya. Tumatawag din sya kanina paulit ulit pero sira yung mic ng cellphone nya 😭 Di ko din sya maintindihan sa chat tapos di na sya mabilis nakakapagreply. I thought ok na at yung refund na tinutukoy nya sa chat is for that Senior Citizen.
Then nagulat na lang kami. Umuwi sya, nadeadbat ang phone. Sobrang durog puso namin magkakapatid kung pano sya nagkwento nung nakauwi sya samin, ginabi na lang sya bitbit bitbit nya uli yung maleta nyang pagkabigat, commute lang from Pasay to QC. Nagalit daw sya dun nung sinabi na iniwan na sya kasi asang asa sya na magkikita din sila ng lola ko ngayon pero ang sabi lang sa kanya daw ng mga tao dun at halos di daw sya pakinggan is kung gusto daw nya sumakay is magbayad sya ng 7k para sa byahe bukas. Grabe lang no? 💔 Pero sa email nila sakin nung ala una free rebooking kahit may boarding na, yun pa pala isa kong rant, ilang oras ko tyinaga yung pangit din nilang customer service dahil nagbabakasali ako sa rebooking pero not granted tangina nila. Nagtry ako sa refund pero to be investigated pa daw. Talaga ba? Tangina nyo airasia mga hayop kayo.
Umiiyak ung tatay kong sinabi sakin na magbubus na lang daw sya kahit di na daw para sa pyesta kundi para sa nanay nya at para din daw di masayang ticket nya pabalik manila. Sya pa nagsosorry sakin kasi nasayang daw pera ko. Tangina nyo Airasia mga hayop kayo😭😭💔💔💔
Ngayon tanong ko lang, since misinformation yung nnagyari sa kanya, dapat ba namin ilakad na pasakayin na lang sya? Ayoko magbus si papa kasi almost 24 hrs na byahe at senior na sya 😭

A Tunisian judge on Wednesday ordered the imprisonment of two prominent journalists pending trial, their families and lawyers said, reinforcing fears of a widespread campaign aimed at silencing dissent and curbing free speech.

For the story: Yes it is short, yes it could have been longer, but I think the story doesn't need to be. It's a short story about parental abuse and it gets straight to the point. I don't think it would gain a lot by stretching it out or including more characters.
For the event trial: It's still the same as last time, I think it's perfectly serviceable.
For the rewards: These are by far the highest amount of rewards we've gotten from an event so far. In addition to everything that's always there, we also get a free copy of a Legendary Esper. Which includes Brewster and Ashley, some of the most universally useful espers in the game.
The event is geared towards newer players, who join during the anniversary, get a lot of pulls and new characters and will be flooded with Event Backtracks.
I'm happy with the amount of rewards it gives and I think it's nice to have a rather short, self-contained story for me once, just when the past events were feeling like they take up a lot of time to read through and felt like a chore at times. (They're still good stories and I like to read them, but they just felt like they're gonna take more than an hour to read)

I had recently got a pc a for a couple months it worked great. One day they told me to uninstall my anti virus or renew and being the cheapskate I am I uninstalled it and reinstalled and free antivirus (Kasperky). After installing it told me to restart my pc so I did and this is where the issues occur. When it powered back on and I got to the log in screen my keyboard and mouse both did not work but still but would light up and work on my xbox when plugging it into that. Ive tried restarting my pc, trying a different keyboard and mouse, and unplugging the pc for up to 24 hours with no luck. After searching the internet I havent found and videos or chat boxes on this exact topic. The best least I found was with a old ps2 port which my pc does not have. So I was searching for help here. Im a teen who just covered the monetary cost of the pc themself so I would be very grateful for any sort of ideas as to a solution.

Hey all! I have thought aton about my own babies, and how much I yearned to learn to connect with them. I thought about the first book I purchased to connect with them in the third dimension(This dimension we are in), and the second book I read to connect with them on a spiritual level.
Here are some books I've read and still continue to read time and time again.

How old are you? What's your gender? Give us a general description of yourself. 17, male Just your average quiet teenager • Is there a medical diagnosis that may impact your mental stability somehow? not that I know of • Describe your upbringing. Did it have any kind of religious or structured influence? How did you respond to it? Growing up isn't a thing I really recall easily, but I was born in a semi-poor family of 4 members(me,brother,and parents ofc), parents didn't really get along and eventually they split up and I had to fill the role of the father for my brother. Mostly my mother would insist on religion and such, and most of my morals are from her. Now I just think some of them are pretty stupid • What do you do as a job or as a career (if you have one)? Do you like it? Why or why not? I am in high school currently, I would like to become a doctor, something that ties into sports because I do karate and I really love this sport (I am at the brown belt currently) • If you had to spend an entire weekend by yourself, how would you feel? Would you feel lonely or refreshed? It could go both ways, either I do something by myself in that weekend or I would like to go hang out with others(on calls mostly just to listen and maybe include myself, joke around and all) but if I really have nothing to do I feel miserable if I stay and think about my current situation, not having much going on for me.. • What kinds of activities do you prefer? Do you like, and are you good at sports? Do you enjoy any other outdoor or indoor activities? Playing on my computer and Karate, I am pretty good at sports now but before I really wasn't in a good physical condition (I was fat). But I prefer both indoor activities and outdoor , but mostly sticking with indoor cause no opportunities to go outside which is sad really... • How curious are you? Do you have more ideas then you can execute? What are your curiosities about? What are your ideas about - is it environmental or conceptual, and can you please elaborate? Not really curious about stuff that aren't of use to me or I don't see value in, like yeah if I need to know something I will hold onto that but for myself for no reason going out to learn something isn't really for me.. • Would you enjoy taking on a leadership position? Do you think you would be good at it? What would your leadership style be? I don't really go for leadership if I don't have a good level of expertise on the subject, but when I do it's good. I try to simplify my strategizing because there's no point in complicating a plan and plus it helps with staying flexible • Are you coordinated? Why do you feel as if you are or are not? Do you enjoy working with your hands in some form? Describe your activity?
I don't know what to answer on this "coordination" thing.. But I do enjoy working with my hands even if it won't be good, from time to time I think about cooking food and such for myself/ family • Are you artistic? If yes, describe your art? If you are not particular artistic but can appreciate art please likewise describe what forums of art you enjoy. Please explain your answer.
No, I used to like it as a kid mostly because of school, it would get recognition and I would actually think "hell yeah I am the best artist!" (kind of), but since it wouldn't get much recognition I stopped being like that.. kind of cringing at my past behaviour honestly • What's your opinion about the past, present, and future? How do you deal with them?
I don't think bout them too much About the past I really don't recall memories, unless it's episodic memory because then I remember what happend all of that , not with all the details tho And I don't stay and think much about my future, I don't like thinking in advance what I'm gonna do but I am indifferent towards it. I try to remain on the lookout for possibilities that could help me later or in the moment
• How do you act when others request your help to do something (anything)? If you would decide to help them, why would you do so?
People don't really come to me for help unless they try to use me(and ofc I don't let them) But it would go one of the two ways: either I help them because I feel obligated too, or actually want to show the person I am interested into something of theirs(this sounds wrong lol) or I simply say no and go on about my day
• Do you need logical consistency in your life?
yeah, I don't really like to have things that make no sense around me which is why I try to make sense of everything even including this system of cognitive functions (which I read a bit but ehh not too sure how they apply to me that is why I am here in the first place)
• How important is efficiency and productivity to you?
Not too much , but I do love when I am efficient and productive. Because in free time if I have nothing to work towards I feel pointless, and miserable.. • Do you control others, even if indirectly? How and why do you do that?
• What are your hobbies? Why do you like them? I do karate and play on my pc, that is pretty much it.. I love doing this sport, I want to continue on practicing this sport and maybe become a coach myself + becoming a doctor for a field like kinetotherapy (i hope that is how you call it idk how it is in english)
• What is your learning style? What kind of learning environments do you struggle with most? Why do you like/struggle with these learning styles? Do you prefer classes involving memorization, logic, creativity, or your physical senses?
I see the logic behind things pretty easy, but when I don't then I still try to make sense of everything. But I learn what I need to go further in what I am doing, and prefer classes where physical senses are used a lot followed by logic and creativity. I like to juggle with the logic of the subject in the moment and see how the equasion in front of me could lay out.
• How good are you at strategizing? Do you easily break up projects into manageable tasks? Or do you have a tendency to wing projects and improvise as you go?
Like I said I try to simplify planning so I try to do the same with strategizing, but sometimes a detailed strategy is the best , and even improvising is good because something could happen and set you off course • What are your aspirations in life, professionally and personally?
To be productive, influence others, eventually control others (for their good/our good)
• What are your fears? What makes you uncomfortable? What do you hate? Why?
I get uncomfortable around people who are in a emotional outburst, and look to me for support. I am bad with emotions.. My fear is being rejected, and exploited in a bad way, even if it doesn't happen (which might be because others consider me intimidating and arrogant, which I don't reslly think I am like that) I still know how to manage it, kind of..
• What do the "highs" in your life look like? Really looking forward to everything, actually having something going on in my life. Being overall happy and enthusiastic
• What do the "lows" in your life look like? First thing that I would say is: melancholy, and thinking deeply about life, in a depressing way. Even my friend said that my “miserable” thoughts align with some philoshopies like nihilism and such. But mostly get withdrawn from others, feeling stuck and unable of changing things and maybe more emotional but when alone • How attached are you to reality? Do you daydream often, or do you pay attention to what's around you? If you do daydream, are you aware of your surroundings while you do so? I am pretty attached to it but when alone I do tend to daydream, and think of possible outcomes if I do that, this etc But even daydreaming I am aware of my surroundings
• Imagine you are alone in a blank, empty room. There is nothing for you to do and no one to talk to. What do you think about?
When I have nothing to do I just think of “what if” scenarios, even in real life when I am bored and disengaged from anything
• How long do you take to make an important decision? And do you change your mind once you've made it?
Depends, I usually try to always be decisive, and I may juggle back n forth with options and outcomes but I really get indecisive for personal stuff but decisive for outside stuff
• How long do you take to process your emotions? How important are emotions in your life?
I don't really mess with my emotions, I just supress them because they will make me feel miserable and melancholic and I dislike feeling like that… a lot
• Do you ever catch yourself agreeing with others just to appease them and keep the conversation going? How often? Why?
I tend to do this a lot with people who I don't know , because I don't know how they'll react so I do this but at the same time kind of closing off the room to chat about it more and such
• Do you break rules often? Do you think authority should be challenged, or that they know better? If you do break rules, why? I don't break rules but I also don't really care about them when doing something just as long as it won't get me punished and it won't harm others (ofc), eventually exploiting them. But I don't really care too much about them cause if you gonna do your job good you won't break them. I dislike having limits from others, it's annoying
I took the Michael Caloz test and it said ENTJ, ESTP and ESTJ most likely results

Usually when retargeting most uses a different ad with same landing page, to try their free trial.
Instead a long form sales page focused on common objections asking for direct sale or free trial.
Have anyone tried this?

Before you grab your pitchforks hear me out.
The controller, quick resume, pre loaded updates, free cloud saves, game pass, quietness, Backwards compatibility, continuation on PC, and rewards points really make this an excellent console experience and I admit I let other people's opinions curve my opinion on buying an Xbox which is why I'm four years late to the party.
The PS5 on the other hand if you continue to move it's games over to PC, what appeal does it have? Sure the Xbox is doing the same thing, but atleast I can pick up where I left off seamlessly. I made a list of my 463 PS games I've purchased and I'm going to rebuy them on Xbox and Steam. For those who are considering an Xbox, don't miss out on a great experience.
