I will be brutally honest about this, most of your stacks are terrible and take up way too much room. A lot of regional airlines are not taking the time to train their employees on how to properly stack the bins on aircraft or are letting leads who don't know how to do it themselves teach new employees. So here is a guide from someone who gets in the bin more then a dozen times a day.
E-170/175 - Start at the forward side of the F1 bin. Place the bags arranged vertically with the tags facing out do this until bags reach the left and right sides of the bin. Then take 3 bags and place them horizontally on top of that stack " they will be right underneath the fire suppresion line". Continue making rows this way until you reach the door. Then start at the aft side of the bin and repeat until you reach the door. You can then place your golf bags, weird objects, wheelchairs, gate checks, and AOG packages in the center. With this method you can fit 80 bags in one E-175 bin.
CRJ - Place small duffel bags, small suitcases and backpacks in that little corner on the forward section of the bin. Start your stack against the aircraft right side of the bin. Place your first row in this order vertical, horizontal, horizontal, vertical. Then you start your next row in front of that one. Golf bags, weird stuff, and wheel chairs well go in the aft aircraft left side of the bin.
Easy peasy, using these stacking methods it is actually possible for a bin to be overweight that is how space efficent they are.

One of the primary things I use AI for is drafting emails that I later edit to make them "in line" with my writing style.
In the recent update, Google seemed to have completely messed up this use case by having Gemini try to connect with a workspace account rather writing an email draft in the "chat conversation". This is INFURIATING!

Ivaxa has been well known for his high BPM stream plays along with his obscene singletapping skills over the course of a few weeks at the time of writing. His most notable achievement is his S rank on Deceit [pishi’s Extra] +DT (Score) (Replay). However there is some unusual behavior that Ivaxa has that should be looked into. This thread will look into quite a few cases of these weird findings.
As of the current date, May 16th, 2024, we have collected enough information to submit our public review of Ivaxa’s activity. We are asking the osu! staff and other independent researchers to validate our information and proof-check every single aspect of it. If our findings would be proven to be incorrect and/or not substantial - that's completely fine. Our goal is not to just blindly accuse but to establish the truth.
This document contains currently collected information about Ivaxa, his scores, profiles, and potential connections to other “alt” accounts in the game. We, as an independent team, are trying to establish the legitimacy or lack thereof of said player.
As always, harassment of any of the people mentioned/involved in the report is inappropriate. Please be civil when partaking in the discussion.
Replays, and VODs can be found in a google drive at the end of the thread so you can investigate and see moments listed in the thread yourself.
But first, here's a few things to consider:

1. Ivaxa’s mouse is a HyperX Pulsefire Haste 2, he allegedly plays on 800 DPI with a 0.62x sens multiplier on osu!. The only reason as to why it’s alleged is because of his recent streams, his sensitivity seems higher than it actually is.
2. He plays with a Sayu O3C keypad that runs at 8000hz (Peripheral information can be found from Ivaxa’s Twitch channel.)
3. He is able to singletap 191 BPM streams consistently.
4. Ivaxa used to be a DT aim player, not much of a stream player until recently.
5. The player does have skill, however he may be using some sort of outside assistance software-wise like aim assist or relax hacks.
6. All replays in this thread were inspected using Circleguard.
7. Most of the information down below was conducted in the empirical (perceived) sense, so take all of it with a grain of salt.

Section one: Replays

There are a few moments within Ivaxa’s recent replays that felt unusual or very strange; mostly unusual edge hits, but also weird UR bar behavior.
The Deceit +DT
There are a few things to mention about this score. The first is an unusual UR bar behavior from 91076 ms (~1 minute 31 seconds) to 93123 ms (~1 minute 33 seconds). The UR bar looks like this in the end. This type of UR bar behavior is often found in 125 hz keyboards with a map that has a BPM that is a multiple of 125 (125 BPM, 250 BPM, 375 BPM, etc.). However, Ivaxa doesn’t use a 125hz keyboard or keypad, he uses one that is rated at 8000hz. This is rather unusual since this type of UR is only found in this section of the map only. Also, if he were to play on a 125hz keyboard/keypad, the type of UR that was shown above would be all over the map since the Deceit with DT is mostly 375 BPM.
The second would be his aim, particularly at around 1885 combo, his cursor shakes at an abnormal magnitude from the rest of the map. This shake can be caused by nerves, tapping strain of the left hand, or a mix of both. But, Ivaxa’s alleged sensitivity is so low that the shake that has been shown in the replay is either really hard to do or impossible.
Gotta go Fast +DTSO
This score has one thing that is quite suspicious. at 47582 ms (~48 seconds) into the map, an awkward edge hit is found where he over-aimed and seemingly snapped back to the circle. This kind of edge hit is something that a normal osu! player wouldn’t be able to hit entirely, especially at the speed at which the map is being played at. Another edge hit can be found in the same map at 28852 ms (~29 seconds), where the cursor doesn’t naturally curve at the end, instead snapping to the edge of the circle. Both cases may allude to the usage of some sort of aim assist.
Metal Crusher +DT
There are two things to note about this score, the first is some unusual cursor movement at the ending section of the map. Ivaxa’s cursor slightly follows the slider at 59128 ms (~59 seconds), and another right after at 60400 ms (~one minute). Movement like this paired with the speed at which the map is being played at just seems unusual/suspicious.
There are also five edge hits within the map, four out of the five edge hits are at the very edge of a circle. The probability of hitting these types of edge hits is rather low, especially when there are four of them in one map.
Edge Hit #1: https://i.imgur.com/g3VlDoz.png

Edge Hit #4: https://i.imgur.com/nJyVbiq.png
Edge Hit #5: https://i.imgur.com/MN9MfwN.png
Sendan Life +DTHD
There is something to be said about some of the 100’s that Ivaxa is hitting. More specifically some 100’s within a few of the maps that have been observed so far are very near the barrier of being a 300 hit regardless of whether the note is early or late (https://i.imgur.com/cxFSdjf.png, https://i.imgur.com/bHLurZn.png). The sayu is precise enough to actually hit these types of 100’s, however it feels like these have occurred too often, so much so that this play has half of the 100’s in the map has these “edge 100’s,” for a lack of a better term. There are also two 100’s (100 #1 and 100 #2) that have been hit at exactly the same lateness/timing.

Section Two: Twitch Streams

The two pieces of information down below are more focused on his single tapping skills, along with some weird/suspicious moments during his stream.
Stream title: #18 #2PL we back boys PL/ENG
At 15:37, Ivaxa is seen to be double tapping 270 bpm streams even though he S ranked the Deceit with DT around three days after said stream (390 BPM). At 49:15 mins of the same stream: he is seen to singletap 191 BPM streams, probably because he was warm when playing at his point.
Stream title: #17 #2PL Yomi yori 3 mod pass happening right now wtf,
On March 31st, 2024, on the VOD where he S ranked The Deceit +DT, at the end of the VOD at 2:58:42 Ivaxa is seen singletapping a 390 BPM burst. After which he paused the game and blamed Steam notifications. Despite the bottom half of his monitor being visible on stream through the webcam, where no steam notifications or pop-ups are visible, he then opened Steam to "change notifications settings.'' After allegedly changing the settings, his cursor trajectory on the visible parts of the monitor on stream tells us that he moved the mouse from the top most left corner, while usually Steam settings are located in a pop-up window at the center of the screen. Afterwards His stream allegedly "crashed."
To see the moment, play the following .mp4 file: 20240331 #17 #2PL Yomi yori 3 mod pass happening right now wtf Part 3 and go to the near end.
Stream title: #9 #2PL if i want to i'll farm req closed
On April 7th, 2024 Ivaxa showed on the osu! Game discord server that he is able to singletap 191 BPM (better picture of the graph), however six days later after the message, on his stream on April 13th, 2024 Ivaxa showed that he was able to singletap PoNo’s Yomi Yori 220 BPM streams at the end. This type of BPM jump in such a short amount of time can only be reasoned with by hardware abuse via rapid trigger. Either that, or some sort of relax hack that assists the player in tapping.

Section Three: Multiaccounting

There are many pieces of information that suspect that Ivaxa is multiaccounting, however there is currently no concrete evidence on whether or not he is indeed multiaccounting. Please keep this in mind when reading this section of the thread.
The Mulitiaccount & Play Count Graphs
Pipecat is the suspected multiaccount. First of all, both Pipecat and Ivaxa are placed 1st and 2nd on the osu!mania leaderboard in Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Poland (This is done by using osu! subdivide nations). Both play count graphs also seem to compensate for each other as of 2024, April 4th (the graph for Ivaxa has been warped in order to have a better visualization).
Time-pp Scatter Chart & Best Performances
The same thing happens with their Best Performance Time-pp Scatter Chart from ameobea/osu!track (Pipecat's Mania Chart and Ivaxa's Mania Chart non warped). Both graphs seem to compensate for each other, especially at around the month of March, as of 2024, April 5th (again, Ivaxa's chart has been warped for better visualization of score submissions).
Speaking of pp, both accounts have similar maps in their best performances list (Ivaxa is on the left, Pipecat on the right). If you want to see more, just check their mania profiles.
This may ask the reason as to why Ivaxa hasn’t played any vsrg (Vertical Scrolling Rhythm Game), and yet his performance in mania is abnormal for his time played. As seen from the play count graph from above, Ivaxa would’ve most likely played mania first on the Pipecat account, and then proceeded to play mania again on the other.
Names/Naming Scheme & Last Seen
Their naming scheme can also be taken into account as, Ivaxa’s name was inspired by Vaxei, and Pipecat was inspired by Whitecat.
It is also worth noting that Ivaxa and Pipecat’s Last Seen times are near each other, being more or less one hour apart from each other.

Section Four: Misc, additional “facts,” and Speculations

This section is dedicated to the additional miscellaneous information and our speculation formed from the data we discovered during the process of the investigation. These entries are not verbosely written due to us not finding enough evidence/information to make them included in the previous sections.
For ease of understanding the entry's level of absurdity, we marked them with color tags. The marking process for each entry was completely subjective so even the most absurd ones could be a potential aid for independent investigators/osu! staff as an additional lead where we “hit the wall.”
Fact: Could be used as a potential lead
Fact + Assumption: Not substantial enough to be included in previous sections/Assumption
Pure Speculation: Completely speculative fact/information
Fact: BayOfEvil (Ivaxa’s old username), does have an osu!report on it, although the report isn’t very helpful. One of the thread's replies includes a Discord recording with Ivaxa playing as “proof” of him being legit. This should be investigated further (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVQDdw1SSLs).
Fact: Ivaxa’s Mania score on Ne uchi +DT was set 22 days after his no-mod score.
Fact: In Pipecat's osu profile a discord server can be found (https://discord.gg/jkMydV3PTB), upon searching "Ivaxa" the only two mentions of the name is from the user Pipecat (https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/577365869949354025/1225631393820708914/image0.jpg?ex=6621d52f&is=660f602f&hm=e3589cb93e9ffb2b7c0ef7ffbdedcc3b09df919a7082d11468035ff4f4f6e65e&).
Fact: Guitar to Kodou to Aoi Hoshi: Edge hit at the very edge at 202358 ms (~3 minutes 22 seconds) (https://i.imgur.com/PAWsyh7.png) Similar to the edge hit on FUCK YOU.
Fact + Assumption: FUCK YOU: Very erratic cursor movement at 4485 ms (~4.5 seconds) (https://i.imgur.com/mkRw4Ki.png) combined with his sensitivity and the map’s speed, this is basically impossible. Also he's been under-aiming a lot in this map but that might just be me. There is also an edge hit at the very edge at 60301 ms (~1 min) (https://i.imgur.com/GFxZctS.png), which can be questioned.
Fact + Assumption: Gotta go Fast HDDTHR: The UR bar is acting the same way that was observed with the deceit score from above (Gotta go Fast: https://i.imgur.com/ywA8XAu.png, Deceit: https://imgur.com/cbUtzya). With both maps being 375 BPM with DT, Ivaxa may or may not have used the same method of cheating if he is.
Fact + Assumption: Stream title: #18 #2PL we back boys PL/ENG, at 15:37 mins, Ivaxa is seen to be double tapping 270 bpm streams even though he S ranked the Deceit with DT around three days after said stream (390 BPM).
Fact + Assumption: A Thread created by sampierat on twitter: https://vxtwitter.com/sampierat/status/1775216723743875457?s=20

• https://imgur.com/pC3DBMq

Pure Speculation: During a congregation, several people have noted/proposed that Ivaxa may or may not be using three keys in order to stream higher bpm’s, using a software that alternates the middle key (since he plays ring-index) between key 1 and key 2 to insure that nothing is suspicious with his tapping count.
Pure Speculation: We condone an anonymous survey inside the mania community, including some of the top players, regular 4k, 7k, and 8k players, and some tournament organizers. Most of the participants agree that Ivaxa’s progression and improvement curve is abnormal.
Pure Speculation: Stream title: #18 #2PL we back boys PL/ENG, within the first hour of the stream, Ivaxa is seen to have completely lost his aim (44:46 min), even though he nearly fc'd Brazil on Fiery's Extreme with HDHRDT ten days prior to the stream. Although this evidence may not be as substantial as the others because of retry spamming Brazil.
Pure Speculation: The earliest known screenshots of Ivaxa grinding The Deceit Pishi's Extra, was on 2023, December 22nd (https://twitter.com/Ivaxaosu/status/1738245663631024453, https://twitter.com/Ivaxaosu/status/1738268599129632811, He later achieved an S rank on 2024, March 31st. He would've grinded the map for the past 3 months, however his play count seems to not reflect the grind, only having 237 plays as of 2024, April 5th (https://i.imgur.com/dg4HdSl.png).
Pure Speculation: https://youtu.be/Isp233epRAA the hands, and tapping technique may be similar to Ivaxa.
Pure Speculation: Potential lead/connection between Ivaxa and Pipecat could be found via steam accounts.
Ivaxa’s has two steam accounts (Both Steam profiles were sent to aknzx at one point):

• Main account https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199027517248
• Alt (thanks for Ivaxa posting it on one of the discord servers) https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199081700184
  
  • Has a VAC ban on it
• Pipecat’s steam account:
  
  • “Main account” https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199389486073

Pure Speculation: Additional platforms related to Pipecat:

• Their youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@pipe_cat (We tried to use it compare Ivaxa’s voice and Pipecat’s voices already, not enough information)
• Their GD (GeometryDash) profile: https://gdbrowser.comNotPipeCat

Pure Speculation: Pipecat’s Windows username https://imgur.com/a/DCgtC82 (from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNTTpSl1hHo ) If it could be proven that Ivaxa’s real name is Krzys, it could be a potential lead (despite it being a very popular name in Poland).
Pure Speculation: Pipecat is recording videos on his Youtube channel using both a PC and a Laptop. The PC is running Windows 11, and the Laptop is running Windows 10. This Could be a potential lead.

Verdict

Ivaxa’s single tapping speed is very abnormal, especially considering that he was able to stream 220 BPM in just six days, starting from 191 BPM, all singletapped. His aim on some maps feels weird, and some edge hits are questionable in terms of legitimacy. The incident on his stream on March 31st of this year also felt suspicious and weirdly timed, as if he was covering something up. And Pipecat’s graphs line up in such a way that it seemingly compensated for Ivaxa’s play count, and pp-scatter chart. From the information that was gathered about Ivaxa, there is a likelihood that the player is cheating, via aim assist, partial relax, or a mix of both.
It is suggested/encouraged that you look into this yourself.

Files and Documents

For Ivaxa stream mp4’s, each “part” is in one hour segments (because untwitch). So part 1 would be the first hour of a stream, part 2 would be the second hour of a stream, etc. There are some parts where it didn’t download the full hour, so be aware of that.
We’ve also included one of the “VOD analyzer” test result files, which includes cursor positions from an analyzed stream segment (#11 #2PL 1.3k pp achieved). It was a completely custom-coded solution that analyzed the video frame by frame but it wasn’t used during the investigation, so we are unsure about the accuracy of the cursor detection.

So for most of my life, I've tried to be a good Muslim, Pakistani boy who toes the line and doesn't do anything bad or haram lol.
Well I'm done with it.... Sort of.
I've never really experienced any relationships or hookups. I told myself that I'd get married happily and be able to enjoy all the relationship stuff. Nsfw and otherwise.
So the marriage thing never happened and now I'm almost 30. I've kinda hit my breaking point and want to explore and make up for my 20s. I'd like to meet someone and explore casual, maybe even physical, fun together. Right now, I'm open to anything and seeing how things go.
My own ideals have become more liberal and left wing over the years.. I'd prefer to talk about it over DMS rather than pouring my heart out now lol.
So I'm a Pakistani guy based in the UK. I'm a data scientist. I like all things creative and nerdy. I try to create art myself. I also like to cook and stay in shape!
But yes! I'm looking for people who can relate to my post and want to connect. Maybe you're a kindred spirit who can relate to what I have to say?
Feel free to get in touch and we'll have some fun together!

I've been spinning Harvest for the World this morning. Do y'all consider the Isleys yacht rock? Tracks like "Let Me Down Easy" really blur the line between soft rock and smooth soul in a way that really makes me loosen the top buttons of my shirt.

This seems petty compared to some of the other posts in here, but every now and then it drives me CRAZY!
I seem to be the only person I know who understands what “organized” means. It is not a matter of the area looking all nice and fancy like an interior designer has been here. Only interior designers care about “making it pop” and “having a wow factor.” I certainly don’t.
It’s not about having everything neatly lined up in evenly spaced rows like new recruits standing at attention. That doesn’t do any good if you still can’t find the can of mushroom soup amid the cans of green beans and tomato sauce and sweet potatoes and carrots and everything else. Those new recruits are also lined up in alphabetical order by last name, or inspection would still be a fustercluck.
It’s not about impressing anyone with my housekeeping skills, and it’s only us living here, and nobody else ever sees inside of there, so who cares what it looks like? I agree. Who cares about somebody else’s opinion of my pantry or my bathroom cabinet?
It’s about me being able to find what I need right away without having to spend an hour looking for it, and then having to move twenty other unrelated objects to get to it. It’s about not having sixteen jugs of cooking oil because we didn’t see it in the cluttered pantry, thought we were out, and bought more.
My husband thinks as long as something isn’t left out in plain sight, if it’s in a drawer or behind a closet or cabinet door, it’s put away. Doesn’t matter on what shelf or even which drawer or cabinet. I can spend an entire day organizing a cabinet or closet, and he thinks I am doing it ONLY to get rid of expired things and make space. So he comes in with new purchases and just puts it all anywhere there’s room, regardless of what it is, and I’m right back where I started. He has a limited concept of food goes in the kitchen, hygiene supplies go in the bathroom, and clothes go in the bedroom, but he is absolutely incapable of categorizing any deeper than that.
If we were to go to the grocery store, and the merchandise is all picked up off the floor, but the chicken and the hamburger and the hotdogs and the cheese are all lumped in with each other, we’d never get out of there because we’d spend all day looking for what we came for. Why can’t he understand that? Can anyone else?
There. I feel better.

Most of my life I have been a fan of horror movies. I have seen hundreds, most of which I would not consider to be "good" but the ones I have considered to be good are real bangers.
One thing that has been a trend for many years has been ambiguous endings. While I respect the well-executed open ending, I have found that it is so often poorly executed that it feels like writers and directors simply do not commit to resolution or just do not feel like trying.
Before I continue, I would like to indicate what I consider to be good ambiguity, following with what I think is poor ambiguity.
Good:

1. When the creator so effectively confounds the audience throughout the film that a resolved ending would defeat the purpose of the film's plot.
2. Ambiguity genuinely makes the movie more scary. A good example of this is when a slasher is supposedly killed but the ending raises doubts about this, as long as the killer might reasonably survive the ordeal (i.e. they aren't exploded, pushed into a vat of slag, etc.).
3. When the main character seems just as reluctant as the audience to believe that the horror is truly over.

Poor:

1. Various rules are established throughout a film that are rendered pointless by a lack of resolution, unless it is clear that the creator sought to subvert the audience.
2. Ambiguity just feels like lazy writing, as if the creator had a good idea but decided to quit fleshing it out to push a movie out faster.
3. The movie fails to get you thinking before the ambiguous ending comes.

I respect and understand the notion of uncertainty being disturbing, but sometimes, it seems that this has become such a common trope that creators use it as an excuse to forgo actually constructing a cohesive plot.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with resolving a good plot, and it can in fact make movies far scarier than ambiguity might. If a movie does such a good job making the audience care about the characters, stay on the edge of their seats wondering what will happen next, and decide to finish the movie because they are so committed to the adventure, it is perfectly reasonable to give them a conclusion. Joe being on the cusp of figuring out why a mysterious cult has been pursuing him, only for the credits to roll when he opens a mysterious tome he finds in the floorboards is a real letdown and it makes the whole movie feel pointless.

Just wondering if I’m allowed to upgrade any of my T-Mobile phones lines if I plan I file bankruptcy in the next few months. I am current with T-Mobile and plan to stay that way through the process and after if allowed. I’ve read a lot of rules that need to be followed about making purchases so not sure if I am allowed or not.

My mother, who never worked a day in her life and was a stay-at-home parent, believes a 150k salary (what I make) is going to push me into deep poverty down the line and fears for me everyday. She insists 200k is the minimum acceptable salary I should be making; otherwise, I'm a loser. I don't even try to argue back. At this point, I don't care anymore, but still, how hopelessly out of touch can you be? Anyone else dealing with something similar? She didn't use to be like this when I was younger. I'm pretty sure the lead exposure is finally catching up with her.

It started about 6 months ago. Although i’ve had a similar patch before around my belt line, I assume friction has something to do with it.
All the areas of the flareups are where my clothes would rub up against my body the most. Shoulders, hips, tummy, belt line. I have smaller ones on my legs.
They are mostly like the picture above, crepe-y and red, sometimes flaky. When they heal, they heal from the inside out, like in the photo. My skin will have some clear spots in the middle of the patch, which I found odd.
It doesn’t itch much, it does sometimes at night.
I haven’t tried a whole lot in terms of lotions.
I tried eczema goldbond, it didn’t do anything. I tried hydrocortisone, it made the patches burn and flaky, and very itchy. I stopped because it made it difficult to sleep, I don’t know if it’s part of the healing process because I honestly didn’t give it much of a chance other than like 2 applications.
It also started around the time I started taking testosterone (I’m trans), it also started around the same time I started a new job after a long unemployment stint. And the movements of this job are very repetitive and I could physically feel my skin being irritated by clothes rubbing. Idk if either of those things have any correlation.
I tried switched detergent to something for sensitive skin and scent less, it didn’t make much of a difference except make my clothes a bit more comfortable.

• About me:

~ I'm looking for a longterm writing partner, not a "quick scene".
~ My time zone is EST but I'm happy to write with anyone of any time zone.
~ I write in third person past tense.
~ I usually write four paragraphs minimum per reply but can easily go beyond that to breaking the Discord character limit.
~ I write as female main characters but I am happy to play various other side characters to help shape the world.
~ If you're interested in writing samples from me please see the pinned posts on my profile.

• What I'm looking for in a partner:

~ Writes as a male character and can also take on various side characters.
~ Writes in third person past tense.
~ Can give at least three paragraphs per reply.
~ Helps shape the plot by bringing ideas and suggestions.
~ Has time to respond to the roleplay at least every couple of days.
~ Has knowledge of the fandoms and characters they're picking.
~ ~ ~

• Roleplay info:

~ I'm looking for writing partners that want to play the male role in any of the pairings listed below. I'd like there to be romance but I prefer slow burn as we build the world and plot around the characters. Slice of life type of events are nice but I'd also like action and adventure, for the characters to face challenges and adversaries together. Mixing in angst and drama, anything along the lines of hurt/comfort, is always fun too.
~ Usually I'd like whatever plot we decide to play out to be canon divergent, different than the actual storyline and something of our own design, while still keeping the structure of the world and keeping any canon characters present true to who they are.
~ In some cases I have pre written intro posts that follow a loose plot that we can further shape to our needs, if you're interested in those ask! (I do not have these for every listed pairing.)
~ I'm open to AUs so bring those ideas if you have them!
