2024.05.15 08:25 OneAutnmLeaf Do I have a Memory issue or is it a mental illness acting up/getting worse.
So for context, I have clinically diagnosed depression and Im also Treatment Resistant so medications dont really work on me.
So I started watching a TV show, Ive never watched it before, at least I thought ive never watched it, but as IM watching it ive realized ive seen this show, like every episode, but I dont have any memory of it, but only started to notice it after season 2, and its kind of freaking me out.
I also Recently had a Psychotic episode where I thought I was trapped in a coma (like really believed i was in a coma, that thought is still sadly plaguing me)
but is this like a side effect of a Psychotic episode, or is my memory just displaying like dementia like qualitys, Im only 24 but I quite literally have trouble remember alot, even things Ive known all my life. makes me scared that Im going to forget my name or something one day, I already cant remember my parents faces after only being away for a day or 2 idk what's going on.

I knew I had those figures lying around somewhere in my bulk (albeit, a little dismantled). So after a little searching and tinkering I put them together and created a mini-display for them to match the box art. I unfortunately I didnt have another black part 2516 so I substituted for a yellow one for the Unitron Chief. It seems to fit pretty well anyway. Also, ashamed to admit but I may have had to use a little blu tack to hold the skis in place since they were so loose without it. Oh how I wish I could remember when/where I got these minifigs from... I have a few more random spacemen in my bulk to sort through as well... |
2024.05.15 08:19 Latrolage Can't offload to secondary amd gpu
My setup has an nvidia gpu as primary and amd gpu as secondary. I'm running on wayland with kwin_wayland running on the nvidia gpu. The displays are plugged into the nvidia gpu and vkcube.
The amd gpu does not seem to work for vulkan nor opengl games/programs.
vkcube-wayland, glxgears all work on the nvidia gpu.
vkcube and vkcube-wayland don't work on the amd gpu, with the below crashes:
Here are some vulkaninfo logs
However, I want to use the nvidia gpu as my primary gpu for VFIO, passing through the amd gpu into a macos vm. Also, the amd gpu doesn't seem to do 4k 144hz whilst my nvidia gpu does. I'm not expecting to play games at this resolution+refresh rate, but I do want my the desktop to be smooth with a high refresh rate and high resolution.

Asia-Pacific is estimated to exhibit significant growth in the global automotive infotainment system market in 2018. The region is considered as a major consumer of automotive with China being the largest consumer of automotive across the globe. Moreover, there are several American and European companies such as Audi, Tesla, and BMW, that have set-up their manufacturing units in India and China due to affordable infrastructure at lower prices in the region. For instance, the electric car manufacturer Tesla had decided to build a manufacturing unit in Shanghai in October 2017. Therefore, the stronger base of automotive consumers coupled with rising urbanization has propelled the adoption rate of automotive infotainment systems in Asia-Pacific. Furthermore, Europe is projected to contribute significantly in the global automotive infotainment system market during the forecast period.

2024.05.15 07:37 Annual-Ad-3061 My Erecprime Honest Review (Does It Really Work?)
Hey guys,
I just wanted to share my experience with Erecprime.
Look, I won't lie. My s*x life wasn't exactly setting the world on fire lately. Stress, work, you name it - it was all taking its toll. Dates weren't going as well as they could have, and frankly, my confidence was shot. So, after doing a bunch of research (and let's be honest, weeding through a lot of junk), I decided to give Erecprime a try.
Click here to check out Erecprime!
Here's the deal: It actually works. Like, really works. I started noticing a difference within a couple of weeks. I'm definitely lasting longer, which is a major confidence booster. But it's not just about that - I have way more stamina now, too. Dates are going much smoother, and let's just say my partner is pretty happy with the results as well ;)

I just wanted to share my experience with Erecprime.
Look, I won't lie. My s*x life wasn't exactly setting the world on fire lately. Stress, work, you name it - it was all taking its toll. Dates weren't going as well as they could have, and frankly, my confidence was shot. So, after doing a bunch of research (and let's be honest, weeding through a lot of junk), I decided to give Erecprime a try.

Here's the deal: It actually works. Like, really works. I started noticing a difference within a couple of weeks. I'm definitely lasting longer, which is a major confidence booster. But it's not just about that - I have way more stamina now, too. Dates are going much smoother, and let's just say my partner is pretty happy with the results as well ;)

2024.05.15 07:27 holisticlife5500 Airfare Secrets for Scoring the Cheapest Flights
"Golden rules" about buying cheap flights, like booking domestic flights 57 days before the departure date, are no longer valid, as there has been a huge shift in the travel industry in what days were thought the cheapest to booking flights. If a study has not been conducted recently, or only one year ago, do not put too much faith in it; there's no reason to worry about booking a flight far in advance. The stellar tips below are current.
Check airlines which don't appear on 3rd party websitesOne of the major weaknesses of Internet search engines is that they frequently will not display the flights of all airlines such as Southwest, Frontier, and Allegiant. To solve this problem, use a free resource like Wikipedia to learn which of these airlines operates a certain airport. Visit Wikipedia, go to their airport page, and search for a section called "Airlines and destinations." You are advised to locate a list of each airline that flies to that airport as well as all the nonstop destinations that airport operates. So, once you become aware of any carriers which did not show up in your first searches, you could now look for flights straight on the airlines' sites.Search one-way & round-trip flightsOnce upon a time the majority of round-trip flights were cheaper than booking two one-way airfare flights. That's no longer the situation today. For instance, Southwest and Jetblue set their prices for their flights on a one-way basis; and a round-trip flight is only the sum of the 2 one-way rates. So, you'll want to check one-way flight rates to ensure you buy the best round-trip deal by pairing two one-way flight tickets, probably on two different carriers.Look for one seat at a timeThere exists a virtually unknown quirk in how carriers price seats which could result in greater prices if searching for many passengers as opposed to a single ticket. Airlines put their inventory in fare classes, or called buckets, which are not always obviously visible to customers. For instance, there may be just three seats left in a fare bucket for $300 each, and the next higher bucket may be $400 for each ticket. But, if you happen to look for four seats, each one would end up falling into the $400 fare bucket.Search alternate airportsAt times the cost of a certain flight is extremely high that it could be a good idea to use your second or even third choice of airports. For instance, you perhaps are aware of the New York area's 3 biggest airports: New York-JFK, Newark (EWR), and New York-LaGuardia. But did you know that Stewart (SWF), Westchester (HPN), and Long Island McArthur (ISP) are also in the region? Several airlines permit you to look for all airports in a region by just specifying the destination as the city itself rather than a certain airport. The ITA Matrix tool is also a great way to look for close by if you do not know the area too well, and Google Flights offers a "Nearby airports" option to assist in this search, too.Don't always travel directBeing flexible with your route you'll be flying is another way to find a cheap flight. For instance, at times it's cheaper to travel to London and use a budget airline to Amsterdam instead of flying directly to Amsterdam from the actual departure city.To utilize this approach, learn how much it costs to fly directly to the target destination. Next, open Google Flights, type in the destination's details like country name to see the rates to nearby airports. If the difference happens to exceed $150 dollars, find out how much it actually is to fly from the 2nd airport to the main destination.Leverage elite statusAlthough having elite status will not allow you to book flights at a discount, you still could use it to save money another way. But with elite status with the majority of airlines let you to standby for earlier flights or perform same-day verified flight modifications. This can permit you to buy a discounted airline flight at an awful time, only to modify it to the flight you really want but at no extra charge. Even without elite status, the charge to standby or make a same-day verified flight modification might be less than the airfare difference between the flight you truly want and the lowest option that day.Use the correct credit cardThe right credit card may very well provide you major savings on flight tickets in a number of various ways. For instance, The Platinum Card from American Express now offers 5x points on all airline bookings made directly with the carrier or with Amex travel, worth 10 cents each dollar spent, based on TPG's recent valuations. That card in addition offers the International Airfare Program, providing cardholders discounts for premium class flights on certain airlines.Search for free hotels and stopover toursWhenever an airline imposes a lengthy layover because of its very tight schedule, the airline will usually offer a free STPC, or stopover paid by carrier, which can include a free tour or hotel room as well.
Don't mind the mythsThe initial and main fact to know whenever locating a cheap flight is there exists no magic trick for achieving this objective. There are however a ton of myths floating online about certain ways to seek cheap flights. Without doubt, you must have run into a lot of them while searching for the best flight deals.Airline companies use advanced technology like computers and pricing algorithms for determining flight prices and offer deals based on various factors like time of the year, weather, time of day, passenger demand, fuel prices, competitor prices, and others. These myths and similar ones will lead you astray. Be flexible in respect to your travel times & datesAirline flight rates vary a lot depending on upcoming holidays, day of the week, and time of the year. August is a major month for flying to Europe, and plenty of people are planning to travel somewhere hot during winter or fly while the kids are taking a break from school.In summation, if you're traveling when everyone is also flying, then logically your flight price will be higher.Flexibility is everything for cheap plane tickets & cheap flight dealsThe more flexible you are, you'll get better cheap flight deals you can book. Here's a new way of doing things: Instead of deciding where to go next, choosing dates, and then searching for the cheap plane tickets to certain destinations on those particular dates, consider first selecting your destination and dates based on the best going deals available. By exercising greater flexibility where you travel and the specific dates you fly, you will have a far better opportunity to find cheaper airfare.Book first, think later for cheap flight finder cancellationTake complete advantage of the free 24-hour cancellation window while purchasing flights. Because of the Department of Transportation's strict regulations, any cheap flight booked to or from the United States could be canceled without worry of incurring a penalty, for 24 hours after the flight's reservation; it must be booked no less than one week before the flight's departure. Yes, it's a very good idea to use a cheap flight finder these days. What this means is that if you buy a flight and the ticket price drops within 24 hour window, you could cancel the original flight and purchase the new, less expensive one.Warning: the 24-hour rule can only work for flights directly bought with the airline or with booking engines such as Priceline.Set a price alert for all cheap flight ticketsYou can choose emails or push notices to your cell phone which will tell you exactly when the flight you are interested in has increased or decreased in price. This may be a great way for getting the best possible price on all cheap flight tickets in the near future. You can do this on the majority of search travel sites and OTAs. Why miss out on potential easy savings? You can then always locate flight tickets cheap when you need them.Buy in foreign currency to get cheap flight ticketBecause regular fliers travel abroad now and then, you could switch the currency on the airline's website to determine if the price would be listed in other monies.You can save big this way. For example, if an airline increased the flight price in US dollars but not in Indian rupee, you could book flights at half the price! But this may require altering either the location or language on the airline's website; or you may change to the home country's URL, where ticket prices are generally cheapest by searching in its local currency. This is how you can in fact find cheap flight ticket to wherever you like to travel.Sign up for an airline's travel rewards credit card for cheap flight bookingOne of the smartest ways to take full advantage from travel credit cards is to use the hefty sign-up bonuses. For example, if you sign up for a new travel card when the airline is offering unusually high quantity of bonus miles, you could score yourself literally thousands of dollars worth of reward points by just opening the card.Although several of these travel cards could have higher annual fees, a big sign-up bonus may amount for months or even years worth of cheap flight booking for you and your whole family.The cheapest day to book flightsEven though you might see great deals flashing on your computer screen for international airfare three to six months out, if you are flying during peak times, or perhaps your plans are not very flexible, it's smart to begin searching sooner. The cheapest day to book flights actually evades many flyers.This does not automatically mean you ought to purchase tickets when hitting the 6-month window; hold on till you book cheap flights online. And, just ignore the old advice that travel experts often repeat regarding booking the cheapest flights at 3:00 a.m. on Tuesday; that used to be true but now airfare prices are updated often and great deals could pop up any given moment when least expected. So, now you can secure a flight cheap most of the time.Utilize momondo to book cheap flight air ticketsUpon finding what you imagine to be the cheapest flight wherever, try searching on Momondo; it will search dozens of OTAs; bear in mind that it may not display the cheapest fares seen on large OTAs and Google Flights. But you got a greater chance to find cheap air tickets sooner this way. Otherwise, only one cheap air ticket may be attained, if tried another manner. Now you too can enjoy when you book cheap flight tickets when you need them.Fly cheap during the low seasonHave you ever scanned flight prices from the USA to Europe's insanely popular cities in August? Surpassing quite easily $1000.00, they can frighten seasoned and expert travelers alike.But are those the same ticket prices in February? So, fly cheap from major hubs in USA to Europe, you could often locate roundtrip flights throughout the winter months for less than $400 or even $300!Fly basic economy for cheap air flightsA basic economy flight ticket could save you money, if you do not require checked luggage or advance seat selection. Pay only for what you need. In theory, you'll achieve cheap air flights via this option.Enroll in the airline's loyalty program for cheap airfareIf you fly one particular airline often, join its loyalty program in order to earn points each time you go anywhere. Then, you can redeem such points for upgrades or cheap airfare in the future. If you accumulate enough miles and achieve a considerable status with the airline, you might receive free upgrades. Now, you can take fuller advantage of cheap air fare whenever you require it.Skiplag to discover hidden-city cheap airfares & last minute flightsHidden-city ticketing happens by booking a flight to a place beyond your final destination, and then end your flight on the layover city. This could help you in getting cheap airfares as well as best last minute flights to most destinations. Think about it: can you imagine a better, more creative way to book cheap air fares while searching the Internet?Prolong your layovers for cheapest flight ticketsSometimes only by extending a layover a few days in another city in-between, you can score cheapest flight tickets to your original destination. In conclusion, more often than not, you'll usually find the cheapest flight ticket by following this method consistently. Why not?

Sign up for your favorite airline's newsletter to be on top of their latest flight deals. This is yet another way to know about the cheapest flight booking that becomes available whenever.Focus on going across the ocean for cheap fly ticketsIf you are thinking to visit a distant location, it could be less expensive to book one ticket to the main hub, and then a second ticket from there to your final destination. For example, if you wish to fly to Alhambra, Spain, it's probably cheaper to book one roundtrip flight from your home to Madrid and a second roundtrip ticket from Madrid to Alhambra than it would be to buy a ticket to Alhambra on one itinerary. In essence, you'll end up with cheap fly tickets by following the above example.Don't overlook destinations with low cost carriers to get cheapest flightsCarriers such as Frontier, AirTran, and Southwest all drive down airfares along their routes. So, it may be quite wise to travel a bit longer to a larger airport with low-cost carriers, because even major carriers flights will most likely be cheaper. Using this method regularly, you are more likely to find the cheapest flights to most if not all your destinations. Why not take advantage of low cost flights whenever possible?Avoid Friday, Sunday flights, & traditional air travel daysThis may mean going away before and returning later than usual, or even flying exactly on the holiday. Pelletier, the air travel specialist, says you can save up to 50% by simply flying Christmas Eve or Day. She said: "We saved $300 per ticket around Thanksgiving for our family of four by flying out the Saturday before Thanksgiving and coming back the Saturday after. Not everyone can swing that with their work schedules, so my advice is to leave Thanksgiving day and return on Saturday for cheaper fares."Begin with a reputable flight search engine to find cheapest international flightsWhile searching for a flight, the initial thing you will wish to do is determine which airlines run a certain route and get an estimated price on the biggest carriers. Opposed to individually visiting all of these airlines' sites, begin by looking for a website which will provide results from many airlines and different combinations of carriers. You may end up with the cheapest international flights this way. So, you could start with Expedia or another such as Orbitz, Hotwire, Travelocity, and Cheap Tickets. Do not ignore Google Flights, which, though a very powerful search engine, know that it's not a booking platform and can't buy a flight ticket there. This is how you could find cheapest flights to many popular locations.Be flexible where you go to book discount flightsIf for some reason or another you cannot be flexible with the time factor of your flight, then try to be flexible with your destinations. It's ideal to be both. However, you still can save a lot of money and book discount flights by being flexible with either factor.You don't have to conduct manual searches, going city by city and day by day. Websites such as Google Flights, Skyscanner, and Momondo provide explore tools and permit you to add your nearest airport and see a world map with all the possible flights on it. This helps you to quickly compare many destinations with no need to brainstorm each potential option.Fly budget airlines/carriersMany years ago, you were generally stuck flying with traditional costly airlines. That's not true anymore. Budget airlines today service both short and medium-haul routes all over the world. For example, AirAsia provides incredible cheap flight deals around Australia and Asia for less than $150 dollars! Indian and Middle Eastern air carriers sell cheap flight tickets throughout Africa and the subcontinent.Book early: how to find the cheapest flightsYou can discover how to find the cheapest flights by booking early. Although flight rates continue climbing the nearer you get to departure, there exists a great spot along the way when airline companies start to reduce or increase flight prices based on demand. Do not wait till the last moment but do not book too far in advance. The ideal time to buy your flight ticket is about 2 to 3 months prior to your departure, or even about 5 months prior if you're flying there in their peak season.

Do not wait till the last moment but do not book too far in advance. The ideal time to buy your flight ticket is about 2 to 3 months prior to your departure, or even about 5 months prior if you're flying there in their peak season.
2024.05.15 06:47 dlschindler Honor of the Mech Knights
Injustice is intolerable to the human. By his nature, Prince Regen disobeyed his father, Lord Sard, who was master of exports on Astragoth, second in power only to the planetary minister, the emperor's own nephew Anj Kurim. Perhaps how Prince Regen became son to Anj Kurim is a tale too bold to ever be repeated, for it dares the instinct of man to do right or wrong, the hearts of the young to fall in love from mere eye contact and the honor of the knights who braved the arena on the tournament of Easter. A tale too bold, but I'd go mad to keep it all to myself:
The lords in question were the three barons of slag on Astragoth who commanded the planetary production of mech armor alloys, Astragoth's most valuable export. The types are well known, Bronze-Steel, Silver-Steel and Gold-Steel, although none of those alloys contain any such metals, they are named poetically, rather than literally. Lord Sard grew quite suspicious of them, or perhaps jealous. He had them summoned, stripped, beaten and arrested, accusing them of crimes against his office. His next order of business was to have their estates seized.
Normally such a moment would be conducted honorably through a Trial of Combat, but since these men were severe mech knights, Lord Sard chose caution over honor. His son was not such a coward, and witnessing the atrocity, he fought his way into the holding compound in light armor without markings, but only so the guards would not die withholding their attacks. Regen considered dying honorably to be more important than shielding himself with his identity. When he had rescued the three lords, he did turn himself in, for he took responsibility for his actions.
Lord Sard was furious and had his son exiled. Regen was sent into the frontiers of Astragoth with only his fine robes, a horse, some supplies and a servant named Igor. Igor was quite corrupt, and when they were out in the wilderness he shot Regen in the back of his head when the prince was bathing in a stream, and left him there face down in the water, believing he had killed him. Letting nothing go to waste, Igor took everything, the clothes, supplies, horse and even the prince's identity, managing to assume the prince's identity.
Regen was not dead. By a miracle he'd survived, and the gunshot attracted a retired combat medic who fought in the Scratch Wars and had seen much worse than a naked, drowned man with a gunshot wound in his head. She easily patched him up, rolling the cosmic dice with critical precision. It was not enough for Regen to have his memory intact, as he had severe amnesia.
By instinct he was still very honorable and brave, and pleased with this, he was made apprentice to the one who'd saved his life. She taught him how to care for the kinds of injuries the locals came to her with, and in time he grew wise in the ways of medicine and he worked hard, volunteering to help anyone who needed his strength.
One day he came to the main star port of Astragoth, travelling in the world and seeking his fortune. The daughter of Anj Kurim, Lili, was getting married soon. The whole city was in a state of celebration and three days of games were declared, in which mech knights would duel for the honor of Princess Lili's favor. No mech knight who wasn't willing to risk death would dare step into a close-range combat in the Phoenix Dome, as the impressive arena of Astragoth was called then.
Regen put his only coin into the coffer of the richest man on the planet and bought a ticket to the games. The likelihood that he'd be seated so that Princess Lili could not take her eyes off of him was only the whim of such stars. She'd seen him there and something was different about this man than any she'd ever seen. Some part of her had sailed through the ethers at the dawn of time, and he was her other half, torn from her when she was born as a human on Astragoth. That's how the Princess described the feeling.
Regen glanced across the crowd and met her gaze. He felt like his world began that day, at that moment, as though suddenly every detail of his life became relevant. It was all so he'd be at ~Bed, Bath and Beyond~, right there in the Phoenix Dome as an eight-meter-tall fusion-powered battle armor mech walked out the gates spraying steam at thirteen hundred degrees Celsius from its flamers.
The opposite gate opened but there was no other mech. A weird silence fell over the crowd. It wasn't uncommon for someone to forfeit, anything could go wrong. There was a challenge issued, not as though any unexpected contestants ever answered it. Yet this time a mech in full bronze-alloy armor did enter Phoenix Dome. Nobody knew who it was, and when the newcomer won the battle, they left without claiming the victory.
On the second day, the new husband of the Princess Lili was revealed, and the games would be in his honor as well. He was Prince Regen, except it was really Igor, having assumed Prince Regen's identity. When the combatants were about to fight a third mech entered the arena, this time in silver-alloy armor. He fought both enemies at once and defeated them. Again, before claiming the victory, the mech knight left the arena.
Lord Anj Kurim had a battalion of mech painted in white and decorated with garlands surrounding the arena on the third day. No more intrusions and dishonorable departures. The insults on the first two days by mysterious mech knights could only be surpassed by the games of the final day.
No mech knight had the courage on the third day. Anj Kurim worried this was worse and relayed to the mech commander of the wedding games detail to allow any rogue mech knights in, deciding it couldn't be worse than no games at all.
When the mech knight in the gold-alloy came around the corner and spotted the battalion guarding the arena, he did not know they were ordered to let him past. He charged at them, firing his weapons and they scattered. The holo displays in Phoenix Dome showed this exchange, emphasizing the damage to the government-owned superstructure, cashing in on each chunk of concrete sheared away by laser fire.
The gold-alloy mech stood in the arena alone. Someone had hijacked the holo displays and suddenly they showed the face of just one man in the crowd, and as he looked up he recognized himself. It was all coming back to him in a flood of memories.
The other two mech from the previous games entered, the bronze-alloyed and silver-alloyed. They stood side by side, having found Prince Regen in the crowd and turned their mech to face him.
"Open your cockpits and reveal yourselves." They were ordered by Lord Anj Kurim.
They were the three lords Regen had set free so long ago.
"Honor the Princess!" they were told and they did.
"Now the Prince!' but they saluted the man on the holo display instead of Igor. Lord Anj Kurim saw that Igor was terrified. He drew his sword and beheaded Igor on the spot, his blood spraying all over the booth, and Princess Lili was barely able to escape the gore.
The real Prince Regen was married to the Princess Lili, and the remains of Igor were tossed to the dirt floor of the arena and left there. Soon Regen inherited Lord Anj Kurim's position and had his father's power stripped from him and he gave the three lords back their old homes.
And the armor? What alloys are we even talking about? Some say the bronze is infused with courage, to do what is right even when it is very dangerous and to overcome fear in order to act. Some say silver is imbued with the holiness of love, how it causes miracles, drives us to our destiny and opens the locked doors of fate. And gold? Gold stands for honor, an unyielding adherence to fairness and justice.

2024.05.15 06:40 ilovesoftblankets31 Experience with FOCUS? Desperately Looking for Advice
Hey y'all. This is my first ever post on reddit, and I came on here for the sole purpose of seeking advice...
For context, you could consider me a "cradle catholic." I have never really been that religious, and my siblings and I were catholic for the sole reason that we grew up with it. However, around 3 years ago I started walking away from the Church after realizing just how hateful and hypocritical it is, and how it's just a down-right business at this point. A majority of my family thankfully share the same mindset, except for one family member, and I have no idea what to do anymore.
I feel like I lost a family member at this point. After my family member has been involved with FOCUS at their university I feel like they have become a totally different person, in a bad way. Before their involvement with FOCUS, we were relatively close, but not I feel like the only option I have is to cut them out forever.
Firstly, my family member has never really been "extremely religious" growing up. I think when we were younger, going to church, confession, CCD, was always like a chore and we did it to make our remaining family happy most of the time. It was more a just "nod and smile" kind of thing. Now, fundamental catholicism is their ENTIRE personality and completely changed them into an entirely different person.
For example, some of us were IVF babies and my parents were very transparent with that. When we were younger it was just another thing, not a big deal... Now ever since they have been affiliated with FOCUS, this family member acts as if my parents are the most God-awful creatures on the planet, and HATES them (not disagree, HATE) with everything inside of them. They even told me that my parents need to "Beg for forgiveness" since they gave life to THEM, and a parent who recently passed is "rightfully burning in hell."
In addition to this, I've never seen my sibling HATE the way they do. Again, this is not just a disagreement, this is a full-blown, bitter, dark HATE. My sibling HATES my parents, and HATES my grandparents for allowing my parents to have IVF. They HATE the LGBTQ+ community, and they ESPECIALLY HATE women's rights, reproductive medicine, and any form of contraceptives. Following this my sibling as also flat out told me "condoms are just as bad as abortions" and that "it is up to the man to decide when to start of family." (Mind you, this specific person has NEVER taken a biology class OR sex ed class in their entire life, nor had a significant other) They just hate, hate, hate... And for how "holy" they are they have NO problem calling me really nasty names and telling me to "suck my cock."
Plus, they have become extremely artifical in publically displaying their faith... Mind y'all none of my family or close friends even did this, so it's not like this is a family thing... But now they have to obnoxiously do the sign of the cross before every meal, they leave their bibles and rosaries all over the house, gives my non-religous (all ex-catholic) family members prayer cards, and if they are really feeling like an asshole they will send me bible versus on how I need to repent and be more like them. It's just so fucking forced and fake...
Whenever I try to talk to them about, just why, they always try to claw me in back to Catholicism. Always. And if it isn't that, they completely lack any common logic/reasoning to their argument and it often ends in bitter screaming matches.
I try, so, hard to find a middle ground with them... or at LEAST TRY to understand where all this shit is coming from but I just can't.
Regardless, I genuinely do not know what to do anymore. Ever since discovering who I am, and my values as a human being, I've really started to grow a deep disappointment for this family member.
They mean a lot to me and of course, I want the best for both of us, but they have made my life a living hell for the previous years... If it isn't trying to start an argument it's ruining personal achievements and accomplishments (tell me my honors should've been THEIRS and how they have been unrightfully given to me)... They have really shown me just how ugly and terrible religion can be and I do not know what other steps to take to have them in my life anymore.
My apologies for the long-ass post, and my gratitude if you made it this far.

2024.05.15 06:34 suitupyo Can you relate field parameters to another table?
For example, I have a fact table that has a LastModifiedBy column and a CreatedBy column. I created a field parameter to switch between aggregating by either the last modified user or the created by user.
However, the LastModifiedBy and CreatedBy columns contain userIDs, not actual names. We have a separate User table that can be used to relate the UserID to the actual name of the user.
I can bring the field parameter into a visual and into a slicer, which enables the user to change aggregation on the fly, but because the field parameter is used in the visual, the userid is displayed rather than the name.
Does anyone know how we can get the related name value to display in the visual?
At this point, I’m leaning towards transforming the view upstream in SQL server and just bringing the name in with that data. This will probably bloat my model to some degree. I’m just not aware of amore elegant solution though.
Anyone deal with this before with field parameters? I realize it’s kind of a niche topic.

If it isn't trying to start an argument it's ruining personal achievements and accomplishments (tell me my honors should've been THEIRS and how they have been unrightfully given to me)... They have really shown me just how ugly and terrible religion can be and I do not know what other steps to take to have them in my life anymore.
My apologies for the long-ass post, and my gratitude if you made it this far.

For context, you could consider me a "cradle catholic." I have never really been that religious, and my siblings and I were catholic for the sole reason that we grew up with it. However, around 3 years ago I started walking away from the Church after realizing just how hateful and hypocritical it is, and how it's just a down-right business at this point. A majority of my family thankfully share the same mindset, except for one family member, and I have no idea what to do anymore.
I feel like I lost a family member at this point. After my family member has been involved with FOCUS at their university I feel like they have become a totally different person, in a bad way. Before their involvement with FOCUS, we were relatively close, but not I feel like the only option I have is to cut them out forever.
Firstly, my family member has never really been "extremely religious" growing up. I think when we were younger, going to church, confession, CCD, was always like a chore and we did it to make our remaining family happy most of the time. It was more a just "nod and smile" kind of thing. Now, fundamental catholicism is their ENTIRE personality and completely changed them into an entirely different person.
For example, some of us were IVF babies and my parents were very transparent with that. When we were younger it was just another thing, not a big deal... Now ever since they have been affiliated with FOCUS, this family member acts as if my parents are the most God-awful creatures on the planet, and HATES them (not disagree, HATE) with everything inside of them. They even told me that my parents need to "Beg for forgiveness" since they gave life to THEM, and a parent who recently passed is "rightfully burning in hell."
In addition to this, I've never seen my sibling HATE the way they do. Again, this is not just a disagreement, this is a full-blown, bitter, dark HATE. My sibling HATES my parents, and HATES my grandparents for allowing my parents to have IVF. They HATE the LGBTQ+ community, and they ESPECIALLY HATE women's rights, reproductive medicine, and any form of contraceptives. Following this my sibling as also flat out told me "condoms are just as bad as abortions" and that "it is up to the man to decide when to start of family." (Mind you, this specific person has NEVER taken a biology class OR sex ed class in their entire life, nor had a significant other) They just hate, hate, hate... And for how "holy" they are they have NO problem calling me really nasty names and telling me to "suck my cock."
Plus, they have become extremely artifical in publically displaying their faith... Mind y'all none of my family or close friends even did this, so it's not like this is a family thing... But now they have to obnoxiously do the sign of the cross before every meal, they leave their bibles and rosaries all over the house, gives my non-religous (all ex-catholic) family members prayer cards, and if they are really feeling like an asshole they will send me bible versus on how I need to repent and be more like them. It's just so fucking forced and fake...
Whenever I try to talk to them about, just why, they always try to claw me in back to Catholicism. Always. And if it isn't that, they completely lack any common logic/reasoning to their argument and it often ends in bitter screaming matches.
I try, so, hard to find a middle ground with them... or at LEAST TRY to understand where all this shit is coming from but I just can't.
Regardless, I genuinely do not know what to do anymore. Ever since discovering who I am, and my values as a human being, I've really started to grow a deep disappointment for this family member.
They mean a lot to me and of course, I want the best for both of us, but they have made my life a living hell for the previous years...

2024.05.15 06:30 Nerksicle Email received with contacts default name (Chinese), not as my set "display as" name. (English)
Hello All,
I work with colleagues in China. We are a small company no real IT team in place. We are on Microsoft Exchange system. They use a separate email system, we are not connected.
I've set my contacts up to use the English spelling of their names, they are Chinese. In the contact set up there is a field for "display as" in outlook.
When I receive their email in Outlook on PC, it still uses their default Chinese names.
However, on my phone (Samsung) the email arrives in the correct format using the English spelling as in the contact.
For your reference, I setup and built the contact in outlook, not on my phone.
Any ideas how to force outlook to display the name correctly as I would like it, using the English spelling.
Thanks!

I don’t exactly know where to start here. Since turning 18 I’ve had many financial struggles and long story short I have a TON (~70-80k after interest added) of school debt, a bit of medical debt (~3000 from an emergency surgery), and some personal loan debt (~2000). No credit card debt because I’ve never had one and don’t plan on having one.
Needless to say, I get a ton of voicemails from debt collectors and scammers pretending to be debt collectors. So it’s really hard for me to weed out the legit debt collectors. I’m always too afraid to call them back and ID myself in case I screw myself over. Especially since I finally just now started making enough money to just pay all of my regular bills on time. Sometimes I do have to pick between eating for the day and gas in my car but it’s becoming a bit less frequent now. I’m so scared all these debt collectors will sue me for the debt I cannot repay yet before I’m officially “back on my feet” and plunge me back deeper into the hole.
These two recent voice mails I received are concerning in a different way. The voice mail said “This is (Name) calling from the law office of Brett Boylan please return this call when you receive this message.” That’s it. Every other debt collector call I’ve ever gotten has been “This is (Name) calling to speak to (My Name). Please return this call etc”.
I looked them up and they are in fact a real law firm that specializes in “Corporate, Municipal, Elder, Environmental, Estate Planning, Plaintiff’s Negligence Litigation, and Real Estate as well as Trust and Estate administration” (taken directly verbatim from their website). So that further confuses me as to why they have my number and are calling me since it seems they don’t do anything involving debt collection. But I’m not a lawyer so I may be mistaken.
Now, I know legally they probably can’t leave a voice mail detailing what the call is for (I wish they would it would relieve my anxiety a lot) but it’s weird that they didn’t even mention my name.
I’m just worried and so lost. If I barely make enough to pay my bills now how will I ever pay them if they garnish my wages? Should I call this law firm back or does it seem like another scam?

IF YOU HAVE ANY POPULAR STORES THAT YOU THINK I SHOULD ADD PLEASE DM ME OR POST IN THE THREAD AND I WILL TRY TO UPDATE IF ITS A LEGIT SOURCE. Especially other foreign shops.
Please also use this thread to ask any questions you may have regarding the album, pre-orders, or anything of the like and I as well (at least I hope) the community will try to answer the questions to the best of our abilities. I can always add a question/answer to this post if it becomes a common question as well!Common Questions
If the signed version SOLD OUT, will it restock??- Sometimes they do a quick restock with cancelled orders but they are usually gone very quickly. Consider checking back every so often.
- Not usually. Most sites at least on the Korean side like Withmuu and places are usually pretty good at giving you 1 of each if you order one of each version. They tend to "try" to give you an even amount of each version if you bulk buy. For Target they were bad about giving you duplicate albums for Formula of Love so order at your own risk if you buy multiple copies. Can always go to the store and try to exchange if you get duplicates.
2024.05.15 06:06 Oogalyboogalyer Ashai Tsukuki
Name: Ashai Tsukuki
Race: HumanGender: Male
Age: 19
Appearance: Ashai is a striking figure, standing tall at 5'10". His demeanor exudes confidence, matched by his intense yellow eyes and slicked-back black hair. His choice of attire combines elements of Jujustu High's uniform with personalized touches, reflecting his rebellious spirit. He wears the uniform as an open jacket over a white shirt, with a burgundy cloth tied around his waist. Bandages wrapped around his wrists add to his rugged appearance, hinting at his combat prowess. Completing his ensemble are the standard Jujustu High pants and a pair of black shoes.
Personality: Ashai possesses a complex personality characterized by aggression, arrogance, and a streak of playfulness. He often displays a moody demeanor, unafraid to express his opinions and disregard rules when it suits him. Despite his confrontational attitude, Ashai harbors a sense of loyalty towards those he respects, demonstrating a more compassionate side beneath his tough exterior. His affinity for femboys adds a unique and somewhat quirky aspect to his personality, showcasing his multifaceted nature. Ashai's willingness to fight dirty and employ any means necessary to secure victory underscores his determination and resourcefulness.
Abilities
Cursed Technique: Dragon's WayDragon's Way is a sophisticated cursed technique that integrates the summoning of a dragon shikigami named Ao Shun to discern and manipulate the directional orientation of specific individuals. * Mechanism: Dragon's Way operates through a multi-step process, initiated by the user's mental focus on the targeted individual. By visualizing the appearance of the desired target, the user channels their cursed energy to invoke the summoning of Ao Shun, a small dragon shikigami imbued with the ability to ascertain directional bearings. Once summoned, Ao Shun manifests before the user, its presence signifying the activation of Dragon's Way. Through a mystical connection between the user and the dragon shikigami, Ao Shun instinctively orients itself and points in the direction of the targeted individual, providing real-time guidance and tracking capabilities. * Utility: The versatility of Dragon's Way extends beyond mere directional guidance, offering a range of tactical applications in combat scenarios. Beyond tracking adversaries, users of Dragon's Way can employ Ao Shun to navigate complex environments, evade pursuit, and locate hidden or obscured targets. Furthermore, the ability to manipulate directional orientation grants users a strategic advantage in engagements, allowing them to control the positioning of opponents and exploit vulnerabilities with precision strikes and maneuvers. Domain Expansion: Dragon's Eternal Compass The domain expansion associated with Dragon's Way is known as Dragon's Eternal Compass, a formidable manifestation of becoming the sure hit effect and using the Ganesh Mudra, to open the domain. * Manifestation: Upon activation, the Dragon's Eternal Compass domain materializes as a vast, stone platform suspended within a swirling vortex of clouds. Encircling the perimeter of the platform is an imposing jade dragon statue, its sinuous form serving as both guardian and conduit for the domain's power. * Rules and Limitations: - Duration Constraint: The Dragon's Eternal Compass domain operates within a finite temporal framework, with its influence enduring for a predetermined duration of four minutes from the moment of initiation. This temporal limitation imposes a sense of urgency upon participants, compelling swift and decisive action to achieve their objectives within the allotted timeframe. - Occupancy Restrictio: The domain imposes strict constraints on the number of individuals permitted within its confines, stipulating that only two occupants may coexist simultaneously within its spatial boundaries. In instances where additional individuals seek entry, the user must explicitly designate the supplementary participants prior to activating the expansion. - Cursed Technique Prohibition: The space of the Dragon's Eternal Compass domain is upheld through a prohibition against the utilization of cursed techniques by its occupants. - Escaping Restriction: Once ensconced within the domain's confines, individuals find themselves ensnared by an inescapable barrier, rendering conventional means of exit unattainable. The only recourse for departure lies in possession of a domain of one's own, breaking into the domain from the outside won’t work and neither will anti-domain techniques. - Principal Tenet and Ability: Central to the operation of the Dragon's Eternal Compass domain is its principal tenet governing the allocation of the sure hit effect. The individual who emerges from the domain having incurred the least amount of damage during its tenure is anointed as the recipient of this coveted boon. Giving the User the sure hit effect of the domain which is to bypass conventional defenses when executing physical attacks devoid of weaponry. The way this is done is the following, the user can throw a punch of kick or even any kind of physical attack and whoever or whatever the user sees, they are hit by the attack, taking the impact. No matter the location, as long as the user sees the target, they will be hit.
Other Abilities:
- Black Flash: Ashai wields the formidable technique of Black Flash, harnessing spatial distortion to amplify the impact of his cursed energy-infused strikes. This phenomenon, occurring within a fraction of a second of a physical hit, produces a flash of black cursed energy, vastly increasing the potency of Ashai's attacks.
Vow Of Hands: Ashai invokes the Vow of Hands, sacrificing access to his cursed technique when within another's domain in exchange for a monstrous boost to his physical stats. This augmentation enhances his combat prowess, allowing him to compensate for the loss of his cursed technique with sheer physical power.
Cursed Flow Divergence: Ashai employs Cursed Flow Divergence, a technique that disrupts an opponent's cursed energy flow with precise strikes targeting specific anatomical points. By temporarily shutting down the opponent's ability to utilize cursed energy, Ashai creates openings for unpredictable and devastating counterattacks, blending street fighting techniques with cursed energy manipulation to maintain an edge in combat.
2024.05.15 05:54 DaysofThundr46 Season 2 Episode 9 - Residente O Vistante
I'm trying to piece together the shooting during this episode, but still can't figure out all of the connections.
Trents Uncle and Javi were old friends, and then caught up with each other in PR. Javi said he was going back to Atlanta for some real estate dealings. Next thing you know, he is shot dead, and so is another guy, Milton Clark.
Was this Milton Clark sent to Kill Javi by the dirty FBI agent? One was seemingly shot before the other, as Trent indicates Milton Clark was dead before Javi was shot. So did the dirty FBI agent have them both killed?
When they find the drive at Javis house, he seems to have been onto someone killing people and covering it up, some guy named McMillin. McMillin is apparently some dirty real estate developer. So he wanted both of those guys dead so he can eliminate them from the real estate business and used the dirty FBI agent to get it done? Not sure what she got out of the deal by killing real estate people, money?
I love this show but sometimes they get deep in the weeds on some stuff.

2024.05.15 05:51 Nelsie020 AITA for asking my devout BIL to be godfather to our heathen child?
I am atheist and my in-laws are Catholic. My husband and I have agreed to raise our children without religion, but to me, the role of ‘godparent’ is still very important. My parents are both atheist, but I have godparents. I am godmother to my niece.
My in-laws are very religious, but we have always been respectful of each other. I stand and bow my head at family dinners, I just don’t do the cross thing or say amen. I’ll offer for his parents to say grace in my home. I brought my baby to mass for Christmas and Easter because we happened to be in their town. I display the nativity scene my MIL gifted me among my holiday decorations. After nearly a decade of this, I thought we were all on the same page of live and let live.
We have become very close with my BIL & SIL and they are very involved in our son’s life. My BIL’s work had them staying as guests in our home every two weeks for the last two years. My SIL and I refer to each other as ‘sister’. My husband and I decided to ask them to be godparents to our second child (in my husband’s family, all siblings have different godparents). We assumed they would be really honoured.
Last night, we excitedly asked them. My SIL happily agreed and hugged us, but my BIL looked very uncomfortable, didn’t get up from his chair, and just slowly asked questions with a squished face about what that meant because to him, it was a very serious question. It was super awkward. It felt like something between an interview and asking for a raise. It was like we were asking for him to do us a huge favour that he was reluctant to do.
This has eaten away at me all day. In 10 years I’ve never felt like looked down on for not being Christian, until today. It was like he was offended we would ask him to be a godparent with no spiritual aspect. I also realize I’m pregnant and hormonal, but it’s not even clear to me that he agreed.
I can’t help but feel like his reaction was a slap in the face. I regret asking. If I knew he was going to react that way, I wouldn’t have. We already agreed to use BIL‘s name as a middle name if we have a boy and now that’s the last thing I want to do. It just leaves such a bad taste in my mouth. It feels like a stain on my otherwise blissful pregnancy. My husband is very defensive and thought his reaction was fine. I’m embarrassed and angry, but maybe that’s my own damn fault for asking a devoutly religious man to be the godfather to my heathen child.
