Appreciate everyone's time

I have been trying to add commas for readibility as the user enter amount/number in textfield. But i am not being able to.

  ₹   ), }} placeholder="Enter Amount" sx={{ mx: "auto", width: "70%", "& input::placeholder": { color: "white !important", }, "& input": { height: "auto", }, }} /> 

This is textfield
And this is my function

 const handleAmountChange = (e) => { e.preventDefault(); const { name, value } = e.target; const options = { maximumFractionDigits: 2 }; const formattedValue = Intl.NumberFormat("en-IN", options).format(value); if (name === "amount") { if (allowedValue(value) value.length === 0) { props.setTxnPayLoad((prevState) => ({ ...prevState, [name]: formattedValue, })); } else { e.target.value = props.txnPayLoad.amount; } } setShowRupeeSymbol(value.trim() !== ""); }; 

I want amount to be formated in Indian rupee format
Please help or guide me to resource that can help. Thank you.

This Post is only for those who really wanna accept the reality , those who don't want to and give inconsistent reasoning feel free to ignore.
- Also i accept that i can't be absolute but this is just to give everyone a general idea , i Apologize for any grammatical mistakes in advance

So A lot of you folks have just gotten your results and the result came in all ranges right(We have people with all types of so called ''percentages'')

I'm going to make you realize the reality behind this all
1. Is there A Difference between someone who scored 95% and someone with 92 or 93? - NO
Similarly there is no Difference between 97 or say 95 etc. - all types of ranges
In fact that's what the percentage system for - To Evaluate your academic ability based on relative idea not absolute grading - That is what is called Grading System right- A grade ranges from (90-100)
But the problem is The People of Our Country honestly have no idea of this - they themselves are illiterate and just hearing the number 97 or 98 ring a bell in their ears - that is what they are capable of right? - they think that the system of evaluation is absolute grading and 98 means -wow & amazing whereas 93 or 92 don't - which is completely absurd and someone who cannot understand this simple evaluation of range based(relative) grading doesn't deserve to judge anyone
2.Always Grades , Marks And Percentages........: That is what we study for right and that is what ''the greatest pioneers of Science & Mathematics & Humanities have worked hard for to show off the no one cares grade to someone illiterate enough to not understand the philosophy of the subject to''.
-In Fact most Indians are illiterate enough that they refer to Someone Being Good At Math by seeing their arithmetic skills , why? Because they didn't go beyond that they don't know arithmetic stopped mattering ever since the invention of calculators , they don't know about variables and derivations they just think Arithmetic is Mathematics- Absolute Shame!! - and we are being judged by these people(even more shameful)
Moreover for most Indians, the academic skills , the subject chosen are a tool of showoff and superiority complex over others, they don't care about the philosophy of subject at all
3. '' People's obsession with Photos Published in Newspaper & TV Interviews'' : What makes people of our country do this because in British Era , Only Big News and Stuff came On Newspapers - which make them think if someone comes on Newspapers even today - they must be some sort of "God''
the same goes for TVs -as cameras were quite surprise to them and TVs even more - they still believe to this day that anyone who comes on TVs and heck even Youtube is some sort of ''Great Person''
Hence the words used- "influencers'' & ''Celebrities'' - Absolute BS
Where in Reality Schools just advertise their ''results'' for more admission and so called ''reputation'' just like how farms showcase their poultry
4.Caring for Future (Seeing Reality ) : There are some things which all of us must understand either ourselves or either by someone else ,
i. The Academic System till Grade 10 in India is not up to the mark at all - Neither the Curriculum nor the evaluations
-That's why most students suffer by Sciences in 11th Grade , Because the so called previous classes haven't even taught them the philosophy of the subject and never the way of properly understanding Sciences
-Hence forth if you've only followed this curriculum till 10th , then it doesn't matter at all - neither your so called achievements nor your ''marks'' & ''percentages''
ii. You must understand the subject you are studying - that's all it matters -'' if you know how chemical reactions take place , how principles of mechanics work and how a certain theorem is proved and derived and you can reproduce these results, the depth of literature and poetry yourself'' - that's what it matters (always and only)
iii. Using absurd terms like - ''God gifted'' , ''genius'' , ''superhuman'' 'Toppers' , ''School Top'' etc. etc. - That's what illiterates do because they've never understood the subject and feels anyone who has is special label them these terms , which in turn make the believe it and treat others with inferiority
-''understanding a subject is art not some special skill, if you always study to understand a subject (not for grades) , you will excel in practical and theoretical knowledge ''
v. Honestly there is a lot of these illiteracies people think and do but I've generalized the most common ones , with this you get an idea of course and you can debunk others easily
General Advice- Don't Use Instagram and Youtube - Content which specifically aims at Indian Education(Shorts & Reels) because they are also the same degenerates and make people believe similar absurd terms
e.g. Shob*t Nir*an , Phys*cs Wa**ah etc. - see how they romanticize these same illiteracies as some sort of amazing god-like achievements - completely absurd
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now you must say or think that what i am saying is not correct , well i admit that it is just an idea , it can never be absolute correct , but i can assure for sure that it is far better than general conceptions perceived by your parents and society
Reasoning - If there really would be worth is any of these so called ''Toppers'' and 90% scorers , Our country would have changed by now , but just open the general news and you can see for yourself where we are heading
Heck even the content we produce and watch is outright cringe and absurd - "all movies, Tv Shows, Serials " same goes for Insta and Youtube - Absolute Crap
There is no scope of Research in India - Why? - Reasearch is Peak of Academia yet none of these ''toppers'' seem to excel at it neither shows any interest towards it.
-People only care about job , money , cars, fame , marriage ; no diff. from animals at best
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So what matters in our academia really

1.for Grades (1-8) Develop interest in subjects and just understand them

2.for Grades(9-10) Choose your Discipline/Stream yourself and just focus on rigor understanding and philosophical aspect of the subjects - getting grade (75-80) is what it matters only in evaluations

3.for Grades(11-12) Even greater focus on your discipline and future career aspects

and in 12th Boards Greater than 75% is good enough , just focus on subjects and competitive exams or other career aspects

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So what should you do systematically (for 9th & 10th graders esp.) - I can't decide that but surely give and idea about it if you guys really want it on a later post

"Greatness" when it comes to music, is discography, influence, longevity, hits, impact, Versatility
These all things Rihanna ticks boxes in, Michael Jackson ticks these boxes, as does Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Rolling Stones, Prince, Bob Marley, Queen, Pink Floyd and many more, hence making these some of Music's greatest Acts, Rihanna belongs up there
While Rihanna does not write or Produce her music, she still curiates, Michael Jackson did not play instruments or write a lot of his songs however that doesn't take away from his Artistry
https://youtu.be/n6N1_sxlBU8?si=VjyeCyuO-xG9KsM2 "We Found Love" by Rihanna (2011) one of the 2010s greatest songs with a Beautiful and Haunting EDM Instrumental, emotionally compelling narrative and Catchy hook with good Vocals
https://youtu.be/2IzNKRg5uZs?si=rRWMisrFSP1Jv084 "Man Down" (2010) a Reggae song, already showing how Versatile Rihanna is, however it's a dark song about a Young Woman taking revenge on a Man who Sexually Assaulted her, her Vocals are amazing here and this song proves her Vocal Range as she blends into Reggae so easily
https://youtu.be/pHQvdENN8GM?si=imvUQP-VBSy0Isan "SOS" (2006) an Amazing R&B hit that Samples the classic 80s hit "Tainted Love" showing Rihanna paying homage to the classics
https://youtu.be/C75J03JXz24?si=cQde35TtjryXuyTf "Dont Stop the Music" (2007) one of the Greatest Dance and Club songs of the last 20 years, where she samples Michael Jackson's "Wanna Be Startin Something" with a Futuristic and Electronic update which sounds amazing, a Classic Sensual Banger
https://youtu.be/xXD5tltX9Pg?si=bP6K2WYobO1N1m5z "Umbrella" (2007) I mean I don't have a lot to say, it's one of the most iconic Pop Songs of all time
https://youtu.be/wmGjajXDHKo?si=QOGaoK4Se0v7GlwV "Disturbia" (2007) a Horrorcore Genre song that WENT BILLBOARD NUMBER 1, what kinda Horrorcore songs goes number 1? This song displays Rihanna's influence by Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and was one of the most groundbreaking songs of the 2000s Popularising Autotune as an artistic effect
https://youtu.be/AjLD4ufmSlE?si=KgR8msbKyoQCRlg- "Shut Up & Drive" (2007) another Classic, this is one of thr greatest Pop Rock songs of the last 20 years, its a great Sensual song that is inspired by a Classic like "Whole Lotta Love" by Zeppelin, and it samples "Blue Monday" which Is a Masterpiece, Shut Up & Drive even has a hint of Grunge influence, again showing Rihanna leaving her comfort zone musically
https://youtu.be/QMP-o8WXSPM?si=WmqZlvMg7GVsJeVI "Love on the Brain" (2016) a brilliant song on Rihanna's last Album, it is influenced by 60s Soul & Blues ballads
Rihanna is one of the most Popular and influential Artists of all time, despite only having an 11 year music Career from 2005 to 2016, Rihanna has managed to become one of the top 10 highest selling Artists in history, the 2nd highest Female Artist ever behind Madonna despite Madonna having a 25 year headstart and Rihanna is creeping up in sales, she has 14 Billboard Number 1s, Beatles in comparison had 21, she's versatile, boundary pushing, has great vocal Range. I feel it's only fair she is worthy of a "Greatest Artists of all time" list
I'm not even sure if this is that unpopular IRL, most people I talk to in real life agree Rihanna is a Musical Legend, but Reddit is not Real Life, Reddit shits on anything Pop that isn't Michael Jackson lol
If I was to rate Rihanna's top 5 Albums

1. Good Girl Gone Bad (2007) is a 9/10
   
2. Loud (2010) is a 9/10
   
3. ANTI (2016) is a 8.5/10
   
4. Rated R (2009) is a 8/10
   
5. Talk That Talk (2011) is a 8/10
   

She doesn't have a 10/10 Album, like Thriller, Bad, Purple Rain, Led Zeppelin 1, Zeppelin IV, Abbey Road, Dark Side of the Moon and so on, but two 9/10 Albums is insanely impressive, someone like Ed Sheeran has never even made a 7/10 Album

Selecting a laparoscopic gynecologist can have a number of advantages for gynecological procedures:
1. Minimally Invasive : Compared to open surgery, laparoscopic techniques require fewer incisions. This causes the body to experience less trauma, less pain, and faster healing periods.
2. Less Time Spent in the Hospital: Less time spent in the hospital and a quicker return to normal activities are two benefits of laparoscopic surgeries for patients. Some patients may even be treated as outpatients.
4. Quicker Recuperation: Compared to open surgeries, laparoscopic procedures frequently result in quicker recovery times and allow patients to resume their regular activities sooner.
5. Less Pain : Compared to open surgeries, laparoscopic procedures are associated with less postoperative pain, which improves patient comfort during the healing phase.
6. Decreased Complication Risk : Compared to open surgeries, laparoscopic procedures typically have lower rates of complications including infection and blood loss, making them safer choices for many patients.
7. Improved Visualization : During laparoscopic procedures, surgeons can see the surgical site more clearly and precisely thanks to magnified, high-definition images.
8. Adaptability : Numerous gynecological treatments, such as hysterectomy, ovarian cyst removal, endometriosis treatment, and tubal ligation, can be performed using laparoscopic techniques.
9. Improving Results : Research indicates that as compared to open surgeries, laparoscopic gynecological procedures can yield comparable or even better results, such as reduced rates of complications and quicker recovery periods.
All things considered, individuals seeking gynecological care might benefit greatly from selecting a laparoscopic gynecologist, including less pain, quicker recovery, and better surgical results.

After much consideration, and planning, I am going to return to video production. When I began making videos on a weekly or monthly basis, I had plenty of free time due to the big coof. This was me learning things like scheduling, editing, how to make the microphone work, and I learned plenty through trial and error. There is a dramatic difference between my first videos and my recent ones because of this learning experience. But as I learned about how to make videos, I learned that I was wasting my time with them.
A LOT of time.
Whatever you’re thinking is a time waste for a video is not really it, unless you’ve been there and done that. During that time, I ruined my sleep schedule and would even pass up on small money opportunities, all because I thought my Youtube videos would send me into stardom. Plant a seed, watch it grow, that sort of thing. But, looking at my numbers, it was the exact opposite. Each video coming out, utilizing the keywords and subject matter as a reason to click, was essentially a false sense of activity.
Working on other people’s channels created even more false cases of activity, which created a false sense of justifying why I’m putting labor into something.
Like most artists, I was gaslighting myself into thinking that the time spent into a project was going to translate into a future income from something else. We always see these videos where it seems zero effort was put into it and it goes viral, not realizing that years of failing and group efforts were required to reach those results. And even then, a youtube video existing doesn’t cause a person to instantly gain money from that existence. I have a friend who made a viral video and he didn’t get anything from millions of views, because there was nothing to monetize. I have another friend who made a viral video, trying to recreate the magic, and nothing came of it after a year or two of trying.
Not only is it hard to receive results, but the amount of time it takes to attempt is ridiculous. I didn’t time myself, but if I knew how many hours were sunk into each video, I would probably pull out my balls in anger. The process of each video was a mess of:

1. Writing down a script (takes more than an hour to write an hour of script)
2. Recording the audio (takes more than an hour to record an hour)
3. Editing the audio (takes about double the time of whatever its recorded)
4. Making the thumbnail
5. Making the avatar
6. Collecting images
7. Collecting video clips
8. Making images and clips
9. Editing through clips that are too long
10. Adding sound effects
11. Finding and adding music
12. Waiting for it to render (usually this is where I go to do other things)
13. Rendering it AGAIN through handbrake so it’s a smaller file (quicker than waiting for uploading a multi GB file)
14. Uploading it across youtube, bitchute, and rumble

I don’t want to make this sound like I’m complaining, but this is the bare minimum effort that goes into a youtube video, not mentioning the details of how things are edited or the issues with troubleshooting. A lot of what ate up my time was realizing when things aren’t working way too late, such as how GIFs don’t register well and they slow down a larger project. Or better yet, how a large project slows down to a crawl and you have to render multiple segments separately in order to keep things running smoothly. My files, as organized as I tried to keep them, were unorganized as hell because I would set them up during production instead of before production. Then by the end of it, there would be something wrong that I would have to edit, remove, I forgot something, something vanished between saves, or even corrupted files because I moved something and didn’t realize it was part of something else.
Video editing is utter hell in the beginning, but it gets better after you look after your process and actually organize everything well.
I spent a night the other week changing up all of my files. I put them on my desktop, where I can easily access them, and away from my downloads. This is important because your downloads can be bogged down with anything you download, and eventually it becomes a massive mess of pictures, videos, game patches, or whatever else you’re downloading; all getting in the way of your actual project. You want your files to be files within files, and each file is marked clearly for its purpose and its direction. I had a million songs splayed out in different areas and couldn’t remember where they were, of course when I wanted them, all because they would get trapped in piles of other things I downloaded for later.
My file finding time is now only limited by the slowness of my computer acquiring it.
Audio began as a mess of me going through each line to make sure there was no extra noise, and having to fix anything that was too quiet or not full enough. Turns out I was making my audio way too maximized and wasting a lot of time on stuff that people wouldn’t even recognize as an issue. Now my audio mixing is done through OBS, already set up as a particular compression and volume that will stay in the acceptable range, with noise removal already set up.
My audio recording/editing time is closer to how long it takes to speak.
Developing each chapter card, clipping them together, having to find the font, typing everything out. These, along with getting sound effects working, took up too much time. What I did is make a plan to prepare all of these first, before anything else is added to the video, so that I know how many chapters there are. They don’t take that long to render, because of how short they are, and it takes way less time to do that than to shift gears at the end of the production day. Shifting gears every couple of minutes, that was wasting too much time, which is now changed to doing one specific task each session.
My “switching” time is removed, thus saving time.
Music was added in the beginning, as one of the first things. This was wrong to do, because of how many times I would want a clip where the music continues through it, only to realize that this continuation forced me to keep a massive background of editing history, which slows everything down through production. Adding music as the last bit, and after rendering, will save me minutes for every time I boot up the video editor, which saves hours over time when I’m going to have to go back and forth on video editing. My lifestyle only gives me an hour or two at a time to sit in front of the computer, and so editing will require less wait time for the process to warm up.
My rendering time will increase(as I go to do other things), but my waiting time will decrease.
Through my new process, I am also considering a different view of each video type. Recently, I saw a video about how kindle books are categorized between low, mid, and high content; related to how much effort it takes to make each one. My previous attempts were to, essentially, make high effort content as consistently as possible, which was going to be draining when these were events that came and went. Current news like Lindsay Ellis being stupid or DSP looking like a fool on Sidescrollers are incredibly time sensitive, which is why so many people stream these “news reports” instead of making high effort videos about them. And even if it was a long term type of video, we have to question if it REQUIRES that much effort to begin with.
My plans for the future are to measure how long I take with each session, what I get done, track down percentages, and measure what the longest steps are. Figuring out what’s causing a hold-up is the best way to prevent hold-ups, in the same way city builders (should) keep track of what’s causing traffic jams. Too many traffic jams? Get rid of cars or open more lanes. Keeping track of things is going to take minutes to save hours, which is something I should have practiced more on doing through my practicing year.
Videos are done with marketing in mind, because I don’t plan to make money from them. My “branding” is storytelling, art, art-related lolcows, and I guess that pesky culture war. People begged me to go fully political, but I think political is a step below philosophical, which is where I would rather go. I would rather explain the psychology and aesthetics of media, instead of repeating myself as to how offensive or woke something is. Yes, I make fun of Lindsay for being woke, but I explain why she is and where it comes from, which is something more important than some kind of drama farming that grifters do.
I would rather be a source of information than a pointless attack dog for someone above me, which is why I try to separate myself from the people who do such nonsense. I’m not with these movements, I don’t care to promote people I don’t care about, I’m not going to go easy on people just because “we’re on the same side”. Everyone gets made fun of or nobody gets made fun of, and I’m year of monkey, bitch. This monkey wants bananas and youtube is not going to supply any. But it supplies plenty of vines to swing around from, as I Donkey Kong my way from topic to topic.
Like anything else in life, videos need to be worth my time, meaning their expense needs to be dropped dramatically. Hour long, multi-hour long, these were excruciatingly hard to do. The next goal is to make sure everything is kept around 30min long, unless it’s going to be a bi-yearly 1 hour long video that will be the highlight of the year, which is where full book analysis videos come into play. The scripts for everything else will be written down as articles, with the better of the articles being made into low content videos.
Podcast style will be for low effort, being made weekly.
A new style will be for mid effort, which is where 30min of history or explanation is presented with video clips, being made monthly. Video game clips will be placed around here as well, unless they can be made bi-weekly.
And the classic, me in my room with my ASS computer, will be for the high content, for subjects that take far too long to make on a monthly basis.
This planning is still in the works, it’s an effort to create a strategy and a schedule for everything. The goal would be to place an hour a day per video, creating steps for each video, and using each other as progress reports for the bigger ones. It will be like placing smaller squares into bigger squares until the biggest square is complete, allowing me to visually determine my progress across such a subject. This is also a way for me to appear more productive, because content will be constantly coming out on a clear schedule. Only bad side about it is that this means 3 hours of my day are used for videos, and this won’t be possible for every day until content creation is my main job.
Before I can have this be a thing, it will be a slow, preemptive creation process, with smaller projects being made as my “short stories”, to then determine if I’m ready for a bigger “novel” of a project. And that’s how I have to approach video editing: the same way I would with storytelling. No more determining that length means better, or more time means more results. Now I’m going to obey the market, go for what’s expected of me, and react to feedback. If something doesn’t work, or doesn’t make a dent, I try something else.
I think that’s why people get mad at me, when they see that I am trying something else all the time. This is normal, but I’m told that I’m “an interloper” or “will never win” because I willingly give up on things that don’t work. Sorry, losers, but being unorganized and wasting my life is not worth it. I like money, and I like vaginas. If I wanted to be poor and wasting my life, I would have kept slamming my head against a wall and failing like most of what indie does.
And yes, the OPC reviews will be translated into videos, as well as my own short stories. I began as a crackpasta narrator, after all. I was thinking of putting a lot of radio drama production into my narrations, but I would want to keep them low effort until they start attracting all of the attention from their titles. A lot of people try to narrate their stories and they don’t make a spark anywhere with them. But as time goes on, and I get more videos under my belt, I could easily narrate for others, create a network, and get things going. It’s not that hard to get things working once you know what you’re doing.
The main time waste that we all fall for is chaotic activity and the lack of planning.

On October 9, 2023, I placed an order for author copies of books (printed and sold by Amazon). I paid using an Affirm credit to complete the transaction, with a total order amount of $1571.26. However, upon receiving the partial delivery on October 26, 2023, it became evident that a considerable number of the books were damaged, and part of the order undeliverable. Consequently, Amazon processed a partial refund on November 15, 2023.
In accordance with Amazon’s instructions, I promptly returned the damaged and undeliverable books using the provided UPS codes. The return packages were successfully delivered to the Amazon warehouse in Phoenix, AZ, on November 9, 2023, as confirmed by UPS tracking information, which is readily verifiable. See attachment.
On December 11, 2023, after a call, I received an email approving the refund. After that, despite multiple attempts to follow up on the status of my refund, including phone calls on December 21, and December 30, as well as emails on January 15 and January 30, 2024, Amazon’s responses have been unsatisfactory and inconsistent. Most recently, I have been informed that the packages were not scanned by UPS, which contradicts the verified proof of delivery provided by UPS. Also, every step is documented.
They haven't replied to the letters I sent and I'm ready to sue them in small claims court. Any advice? Do you know where should I serve the company? TIA.

Hello there,
I am student and i'm currently looking for a new laptop for music production with a 1500€ budget.
I know the Dell XPS is popular, but the only one that fits within the budget (this one) only has a FHD+@60hz display, and it is too light for me.
I took a look at the Asus Zenbooks like this one (ultra7_155H/Intel_Arc/32go/1to/Oled_FHD+) and at this/len101y0040#tech_specs) Lenovo Yoga (ultra7_155H/Intel_Arc/32go/1to/14.5''_3K@120hz)
But I'm worried about the lack of GPU performance with the Intel Arc chips. I know that Ableton requires a lot of CPU performance and RAM when I'm using a large number of plugins in a project, but I don't know how much the GPU is involved in those processes.
I finally ended up on this /len101g0025)Lenovo Legion 5 Pro Gen 8 which seems to check all my criteria (R7_7745HX/RTX4070/32go/1to/16''_WQXGA@240hz). The only downsides are battery life and portability, but for that budget, I can't have everything.
Do you agree with this final option ? Are do you have other suggestion ?
At the moment I'm located in France.
Thanks in advance !!

Back again, fresh off the mid season update.

DAMAGE AND DPS BENCHMARKS FOR 14.10

CLICK THIS -----------The numbers and runes spreadsheet<---------------------

The recordings for the pedantic and ocd inclined
Lvl 9 at 1 item LVL 13 at 2 item
Target dummy at variable armomhp All builds have Berserkers.
DPS should probably have a + or - 10 or so because doing the same damage can wind up with different dps just from slight differences in execution or calculation. When analyzing, you need to take into account BOTH the dmg done, and the dps over time, because either without the other can be misleading. For this test, I'm also including the dmg per gold calculation as well just for more context about what the items are providing.
As much as I stan Ghostblade Hexplate Ashe, it's probably not going to warrant the amount of damage missing this time.

THE TLDR STILL TOO LONG CONCLUSIONS:

Single Item:

• Return of the king, Kraken Slayer is the best first item for damage and dps. There might be a world where you just want to W poke only and then we'd be back to Ghostblade, but that probably isn't this world.
• Infinity Edge comes closest in performance to Kraken at 1 item. However it's 300 gold more expensive. As we'll see soon though, IE+1 > Kraken+1, so your 2 item spike will be stronger if you go IE first.
• Terminus or Bork first is kinda trolling if you're trying to be as strong as possible early. Even going for a 2 item spike, your best second item option is Kraken, which means you might as well have bought that as first item to begin with.

Kraken + 1 Item:

• Kraken into either Terminus or Lord Dominik's Regards are both ideal second items in for damage. Terminus is slightly better vs squishier targets. LDR is much better vs tankier targets. Kraken IE is very slightly more flat damage vs squishier targets, but worse dmg/gold because it's 400gold more expensive.
• Wit's End might be a viable damage alternative if you're only hitting squishy targets. You would also have to value the big chunk of MR you're getting, so maybe if you're fed and laning vs a double mage bot and more AP dmg across enemy team.

Botrk + 1 Item:

• Don't

Ghostblade + 1 Item:

• Don't, but if you must, GB into IE and lean into full poke.

IE + 1 item:

• WITHOUT QUESTION, IE+LDR IS THE BIGGEST AMOUNT OF DMG YOU CAN ASK FOR. It doesn't matter if target is squishy or tanky, this combo out damages all other combinations and it's not close or funny. With one exception...
• Yun Tal Wildblades though, actually comes in an almost close second for damage in comparison. Weird. But cool.
• Kraken Slayer is the third best choice to pair with IE... but why build kraken when you could build LDR instead if you're going IE first? If you built Kraken first, then you're building LDR 9/10 times next anyways so Kraken + IE should never be a 2 item combination if you care about maximizing your damage.
• Not having any extra atk spd besides boots though certainly feels...odd. Your personal comfort matters so do what works for you.

Terminus or Rageblade + 1 Item:

• Don't bother building Terminus or Rageblade first if your goal is damage, because your next best item in all cases for both is Kraken. At which point, you should have just built Kraken as first item in the first place.

Inb4 half of these numbers are obsolete in a hotfix :/

Just like American Idol, we at americanidol love nothing more than finding a good thing and then doing it to death. Given the success of Reddit Idol (where thousands of votes are currently determining the sub’s favorite contestants from the ABC era of Idol) we have started another competition called Reddit Idol: The Fox Years.
This competition will rank the sub’s favorite contestants from the Fox era. We began last week with the 150 people who landed in the Top 10 of the first 15 seasons of Idol when it aired on Fox. They comprised our Top 150.
After 3416 votes cast over the past week, we must say goodbye to the 25 people who received the fewest votes. In no particular order, they are:
Michael Sarver, A.J. Gil, Corey Clark, Jim Verraros, Gianna Isabella, John Stevens, Devin Velez, Dexter Roberts, Majesty Rose, Rickey Smith, Lazaro Arbos, Burnell Taylor, Paul Jolley, EJay Day, CJ Harris, Ryan Starr, Michael Lynche, Curtis Finch Jr., Andrew Garcia, Olivia Rox, Lee Jean Jr., Scott Savol, Ben Briley, R.J. Helton, Nikko Smith
Today we begin Round 2. On today’s ballot you’ll find listed in no particular order the Top 125. For this round, you have up to 100 votes to spread out amongst the competition and can give up to one vote per contestant. The 25 people with the lowest number of votes will be eliminated. Voting for this round closes at 9am Eastern on Wednesday, May 22.

A student builds a concentration cell in order to determine the Ksp of an ionic compound. To do this, the student produces a half cell on a microtitration plate with a lead metal electrode and 5 mL of 0.050 M Lead(Il) nitrate. The student then mixes 9 mL of 0.050 M potassium iodide with 3 mL of 0.050 M lead nitrate in a small beaker. A precipitate of lead(Il) iodide forms and settles to the bottom of the beaker. The student then transfers 5 mL of the mixture containing the Lead (Il) iodide precipitate with its supernatant to the microtitration plate, adjacent to the half-cell produced earlier. The two wells are connected with a salt bridge and the concentration cell potential is measured 3 times. The average cell potential was measured as 0.047 V.
Using information from the description, calculate the equilibrium constant (Ksp) for the system. And calculate the molarity of Pb2+ in equilibrium with solid PbI2 and the iodide ion concentration in the solution.
I think for Ksp I am supposed to use the Nernst Equation but I don’t know how. I tried using 2 delta G equations and setting them equal to each other getting (-RTlnK=-nFE) but I got an unusual number. As for the molarity I think I should use the ice table to find [Iodide] and then with Ksp the [Pb2+] and then Iodide ions in the solution.
Sorry this is so long. I really tried a couple of ways however I was getting some weird answers.

Trigger Warnings: infidelity, psychological abuse, emotional abuse and manipulation
Original Post (rareddit): May 9, 2024
My ex wife (32F) and I (33M) finalized our divorce last year, and she had already moved in with her affair partner. We were married for 5 years and together for 10, and it hurt a lot.
Over the past year, it’s pretty clear that my ex wife’s new boyfriend has been psychologically and emotionally abusing her. It honestly makes me want to beat up the dude, and my ex wife’s mental health has completely tanked.
My ex wife has called me a few times over the last couple of months and it’s obvious she’s struggling. I’ve asked her multiple times to just cut it off with him and pack up her bags and move in with her parents, but she doesn’t want to because she feels isolated from her parents after our divorce. She is also a SAHM to her boyfriend's daughter, and so she feels even more trapped.
She asked me if I could pick her up and if she could stay with me for a while. I am not scared of that dude whatsoever, and if I wanted to, I could just drive over to their house and pick her up right now. But I told her I won’t do that, and she has to get the courage to just step out and go to her parents, or just ask her friends for help.
My ex wife is obviously struggling really bad, but I’m also not a humanitarian, there’s a lot of people in this world who are suffering. I’m not a superman who can save everyone, and I have to pick my own battles for my mental sanity.

Least-Weather8703: Buddy, it's time to cut ties with your ex-wife permanently. She made her choices, and it's not your responsibility to save her from the consequences. Focus on your own well-being and let her figure things out on her own.
Pineapple-85: NTA - You need to cut contact. She is trying to drag you into a hot ass mess. It is not your job to fix her mistakes. Sadly, she made her bed, and now she needs to lay in it.
It is disrespectful as hell that she reaches out to you to complain about the life she left you for. She literally could not care less about your feelings.
If you feel you need to. Reach out to her parents. Let them know your concerns and that you do not plan on getting involved. And plan on not having contact with her any longer so they may want to check up on her.
Edit: Is it his responsibility to reach out to her parents? No but it isnt about responsibility.
It is about him being ablen to walk away with a clearer conscience. It gives him the peace of mind that she may not be fully alone and someone outside of him is aware of the situation. Because he obviously still cares. It is about alleviating the guilt he seems to be feeling for not picking her up.
OP posted an update blocked her but chose to not get involved further which is also ok. He needed to do what was best for him.

Thanks for the advice.
I called my ex wife this morning before leaving for work, and told her I was going to cut off all contact with her after the call and block her number. I again told her to please just get out her relationship and just go home to her parents, yes she feels isolated from her parents, but they are her parents after all, and they will accept her in. She was crying really bad, but I told her there isn’t much I can do anymore. I then hung up the call and blocked her.
I think cutting off all contact with her is necessary to protect my mental sanity. I am not going to contact her parents, I am just going to remove myself from this situation entirely. Yes, I am really worried for her, but I can’t help or save everyone in the world, I wished I could, but I can’t. I need to look after myself and move on with my life.
Comment
nylonvest: Good choice.
If you ever feel guilty, remind yourself that you already helped her a lot more than she deserved, just by being a sympathetic ear. She really had no right to ask for your sympathy over choices she made that caused you so much pain in the first place.
