Spoiler text here !< (without any spaces between the characters themselves or between the characters and the first and last words).
Now brace yourselves: here comes the juice!
Chapter Summaries:
Chapter 34 - Miller: Detective Miller and the crew of the Roci board the hidden ship (the one that captured the crew of the Scopuli before destroying it), wearing environment suits because the ship has no atmosphere - someone left the doors open. They stick together at first as they move through the ship, discovering signs of a struggle, zombie vomit, and twelve torpedo tubes big enough to destroy capital ships like the Donnager or the Canterbury. Miller uses his detective skills to determine that everyone but Julie retreated to engineering. Once there, they discover a truly grisly sight: layers of human flesh and bones are sort of fused around the reactor, which has been shut down. Naomi and Holden gasp in shock and disgust, Miller turns on his cop brain to suppress emotion and view it as a crime scene, and Amos seems… calm and able to ignore the gore. The team splits up to look for more clues.
Amos stays in engineering to start up the computers and get the reactor back online. Naomi works on the ops deck to run diagnostics. Miller and Holden head to the bridge, which wasn’t affected by the fighting onboard. Miller reviews the internal feeds and finds footage showing the captured Scopuli crew being led onto the ship, stripped, and put in restraints. Julie fights back viciously but is knocked unconscious and stuffed in a locker with a jumpsuit (which is where we met her in the prologue). The crew is left in the galley for 132 hours before they decide to make a stand, but it is quickly suppressed. One of the crew is thrown out an airlock and the others are heavily restrained as they scream and cry. Just as Miller gets to the first appearance of a vomit zombie (at hour 160 of footage), Amos yells that he’s been exposed to some radiation because the human flesh blob had damaged the reactor shielding. He decides to keep working while Alex monitors his health status from the Roci.
Then Holden calls Miller over to view one of the last feeds Julie accessed. It’s a corporate presentation video created for a man named Dresden and the board of Protogen. It features a man Miller dubs “the sociopath” because of his cold, practiced smile…and because of the content. The sociopath tells the board (and us) the history of scientific discovery on Phoebe, which was thought to just be a moon and a source of water, but became a research station when a survey found complex silicon structures in the ice. Protogen was tasked with investigating and discovered that Phoebe is not a moon but evidence of a galactic biosphere: it is an alien weapon sent towards Earth 2 ⅓ billion years ago, which never made it because of orbital mechanics. Protogen has discovered that this weapon is not alive per se; rather, it is something they’ve termed the “protomolecule” which has the ability to maintain structure while replicating other systems and manipulating them at scalable rates. Of course, they alerted the proper authorities and made sure… just kidding, they’ve secretly been doing tests. The sociopath believes that whoever controls the protomolecule will gain control of all political and economic power going forward. Chillingly, the sociopath urges them to pursue large-scale testing to understand the protomolecule and its human applications. That large-scale testing is Eros.
TL;DR - Julie found evidence that Protogen (her dad’s company) has discovered an alien weapon, branded it the “protomolecule”, and secretly tested it on the people of Eros (and probably other smaller tests). The entire war has just been a distraction.
Chapter 35 - Holden: Naomi explains that most of the messages on the comm logs have been coded, but the last one is in plain text: the captain informed Thoth Station that the ship was contaminated, everyone was about to die, and the “materials” had been secured. He also planned to send vector data so they could find the ship. The Roci crew put two and alien-symbol-for-two together: they figure out that the captain has locked protomolecule samples in his safe. They also decide that the tightbeam messages were being sent to a secret research station Protogen was using to monitor the Eros experiment. Even though the fact “Naomi is the best” is a proven concept on par with “space is cold”, she is NOT able to open the captain’s safe, so they decide to cut it out of the wall and bring it with them on the Roci. They also scuttle the ship so no one can a) recover the stealth technology and alien weapons, or b) get exposed to the protomolecule-human soup inside. (Amos would have preferred to hack the frozen dead body goo off the reactor with a chainsaw and salvage such an impressive and expensive ship, which is… another way to go.)
It’s clear that someone else with stealth tech is searching actively for this ship, but the Roci won’t see them coming so they decide to get the hell out of Dodge. Naomi jokes that their options include turning the safe over to the OPA (they’d be heroes), selling out to Mars (they’d be rich), or starting their own biotech firm (just kidding, that’s evil). When Miller checks in with Holden about a decision on where to go next, he drops a figurative bomb on him regarding actual bombs in the news. Since Holden did his best Edward Snowden impersonation and leaked the data that the mystery ships are from Earth, Mars asked a few too many questions and in response, Earth has blown up a whole bunch of Martian ships and destroyed the Deimos deep radar station. Miller ruefully gives Holden credit for sticking to his guns about his belief in “free information”. He also points out that Holden’s principles make him responsible for all those deaths and the destruction of the Earth-Mars Coalition… and possibly the universe as they know it.
Chapter 36 - Miller: The war between Mars and the Belt seems like no big deal now that Earth and Mars are fighting. Miller watches the news feeds as the conflict turns into a blockade, and he realizes he is steeling himself for an announcement of a planetary attack on Earth or Mars, but it never comes. He and Amos deal with the stress by having beer for breakfast.
Miller meets up with Holden in the med bay for their routine blood flushes and cancer treatments, and they reopen their debate about what to do with the data files and who is to blame for the war(s).
Holden’s idealism starts to fade as he takes in Miller’s hard truths about humanity. To be fair, Miller loses a little idealism over his perceptions of the inner planets’ relationship which, to the Belt, seemed stable and friendly enough (and united against them). Miller encourages Holden to use Naomi’s judgment as a measuring stick for whether something is right (similar to how he uses illusion-Julie as his conscience and sounding board) and then he goes back to the news feeds to watch Ceres slowly collapse into chaos. Holden decides the only person and place he trusts - or at least doesn’t completely distrust - is Fred Johnson on Tycho Station, so they head there. Holden also wonders why they don’t just destroy the safe and make sure everyone stays away from Eros and Phoebe; Miller admits it’s because the protomolecule might just be the holy grail.
Chapter 37 - Holden: The crew of the Roci is taking a break from doom scrolling to cook fake space lasagna for dinner and bond over the food and conversation. As Holden watches the crew laugh at Amos’s belches and Miller’s wild story about cheese smuggling, he reflects that they represent all three prongs of the conflict: Naomi and Miller are Belters, Amos and he are from Earth, and Alex is from Mars. Yet they’re friends, and Holden knows this is what they have to fight for. The cheese smuggling makes no sense to Amos (why cheese and not drugs?), and Naomi points out that this illustrates how little people from the inner planets understand Belters. Earthers have free air and easy access to resources, while Belters know everything that sustains life is rare and their access to it is fragile. And this is why Protogen didn’t blink an eye before killing 1.5 million Belters on Eros: they’re “other”. Then Alex points out that this doesn’t make sense; it's a risky and unnecessarily complicated way to kill people just to satisfy prejudices. It becomes clear that Eros isn’t a hate crime, it’s a vacuum-sealed test tube to let the protomolecule learn how to do its job better by giving it access to a huge amount of biomass. The early transformations looked incomplete, as if it didn’t know how to work with human flesh yet, so Protogen was giving it a chance to train. Holden wants to know where they would even find enough people who would support an evil operation like this, and Miller promises to ask Dresden (the Protogen board member mentioned in the video) when they meet him. Something tells me that conversation won’t go well.
As the Roci approaches Tycho station, Holden and Miller take in the view of the Nauvoo, the partially constructed Mormon generation ship. When Miller says the Mormans may be in for a long and lonely death if they don’t find a habitable planet, Holden notes that this is the good kind of galactic exploration humans can accomplish (the protomolecule being the bad kind). Miller then asks Holden why he trusts Fred, and Holden explains that in addition to being the only person who hasn’t tried to jail them or blow them up since all this began, Fred is “real OPA”: he’s a politician and not part of the war-mongering factions who think they can survive indefinitely without the inner planets. When Miller points out that there isn’t a political solution to Protogen, Holden insists Fred has other skills, too. Later, Fred reads through all the information on the protomolecule and is incredulous that anyone could think to do this. Miller assures him that genocide is an old-school crime and it’s important that they stop it. Holden offers up the location of the observation station in exchange for enough OPA fighters to take down Protogen, and the right to retain custody of the safe and its contents. Fred agrees only after Holden points out that no one else can be trusted to do the right thing with a secret this big. Plus, he says Fred already knows what Holden will do with it.
Chapter 38 - Miller: It feels strange to Miller to explore the wide open spaces of Tycho Station, the fanciest place he has ever set foot on. He notices Naomi working on her hand terminal and letting her food get cold; she is too preoccupied with trying to figure out the location of the station to enjoy the amenities. As they talk, Miller is reminded of Havelock’s advice to just let go when he got pulled off a case, which jogs his memory that Havelock actually works for Protogen! (I’m surprised he didn’t get there faster; maybe everyone had a point that he was sort of a washed up detective.) He rushes off to make contact with his old buddy - probably his last real partner ever - in an encrypted drop site of a Ganymede server cluster. As he waits for a response, Miller is amused to realize he has started thinking like Holden: he feels like someone should warn the Mormans that they could potentially run into the alien creators of the protomolecule who may want to kill them. Havelock comes through, passing along the coordinates to a “very scary deep research and development lab” and asking Miller to be discreet never contact him again so he doesn’t get killed for betraying his employer. Miller sends him an encrypted warning to quit his job ASAP and not take postings at any black ops sites, before saying goodbye for the last time to the only person that still respected him as a cop. (I may or may not be sniffling a bit at this.)
Miller rounds up Naomi and Holden so they can bring Fred the coordinates. In Fred’s office, Miller starts lecturing him about the serious nature of the mission and the need to have a solid plan with adequate firepower, not the usual OPA shenanigans. Everyone’s a little confused until they realize that Miller doesn’t know that Fred is “the butcher of Anderson Station” and a former Colonel in the Earth Navy. Fred assures Miller he’s no amateur and will plan ahead. Miller then insists that he get to come along for the assault on Thoth Station. Eight days later, the plan is set in motion and Miller begins packing his meager belongings into a very small bag, figuring he’ll never see the Roci again. Even if he makes it off Thoth alive, he’ll have to figure out a way to make money and improvise a life plan of some sort. He tries to thank Holden and say goodbye, but the Roci’s captain interrupts Miller to ask where they’ll all meet up after the mission is complete. Miller is confused at first, then overcome with emotion when he realizes Holden considers Miller part of the crew! I’m not crying, you’re crying. Actually, it’s Miller who is weeping. But he pulls himself together so he can head to the assault ship.
Chapter 39 - Holden: The Rocinante needs to sneak up on Thoth Station, so they are pretending to be a loose cargo container that broke off the Guy Molinari (the Belter ship carrying the assault team, which is pretending to be a cargo ship). They fly with everything shut down so that it’s more convincing, hoping they can get close enough to the station to do some damage before Thoth starts firing back. As they approach and are able to reboot everything needed for battle, a stealth ship is spied hanging out near Thoth Station. Then, suddenly it becomes clear that there are two small stealth ships, which will be much harder to fight off. Everyone does their jobs efficiently on the Roci, but in the ensuing battle with the stealth ships, they start to take some damage. First, the Roci is hit by a gauss cannon that goes straight through the machine shop and galley. Holden mourns his coffee maker. Amos notices a leak in the maneuvering thrusters and heads to fix it between the inner and outer hulls, which isn’t an ideal place to be floating around during a battle. This stresses Naomi out, but Holden orders everyone to stay focused. They are able to take out one of the stealth ships, but the other gets close enough to do some impressive damage to the Roci. There is major hull damage as well as loss of four maneuvering thrusters, a PDC, their O2 storage, and the crew airlock. Alex is about to destroy the second stealth ship when the Roci’s point defense cannons (PDCs) detonate an enemy warhead up close. It knocks everyone out, punches holes throughout the Roci (narrowly missing Naomi), dislodges equipment, and fills the ship with debris. Holden marvels that they are alive at all, and Alex points out that is only because the ship’s anti-spalling webbing eliminates shrapnel. They make contact with Fred, who says he’ll find them a place to land, and the Guy Molinari prepares for the assault on Thoth Station. It’s Miller’s turn to shine!
Chapter 40 - Miller: On the Guy Molinari, Miller is talking to a Belter kid named Diogo as they wait for the assault to start. Miller realizes that while he has fancy Martian armor from the Roci and experience with gunfights in station corridors, he is surrounded by inexperienced young Belters with borrowed gear, and he will likely have to watch dozens of them die during the battle. But Diogo isn’t worried; he is confident and eager to get started. Fred announces that they are ready to start boarding since the Roci gave them the “all clear”, and Miller is happy to hear his friends have survived. The assault on the station starts off rough, with Protogen soldiers fighting them in the corridors and automatic defense lasers taking out some of the Belters in the first wave. But Fred knows how to command his OPA “troops” and keep them in line, and things start to go more smoothly as they slow down and maneuver carefully. Miller and Diogo are part of a group taking shelter at Fred’s direction and fending off Protogen counterattacks, and they start to talk during a lull. When two Protogen soldiers sneak up on them from behind, Diogo is hit and Miller chastises himself for chatting during a battle and not staying alert. He thinks Diogo is dead, but he pops up laughing and streaked with white goo from crowd suppression rounds, which Miller finds an odd choice of weapon. It’s the first sign that Thoth Station may not totally understand what’s happening. The OPA soldiers cut their way through the blast doors to get to the operations center, where they find Dresden (the dude mentioned in the sociopath’s Protogen video). Fred arrives to take command of the station, and Dresden offers to negotiate, clearly misunderstanding the reason for the assault. He offers to give the OPA whatever resources they need to go back to fighting their war (money, medical supplies, weapons, ordnance) if they’ll just leave and let the station get back to their very important work. Fred points out that they know about Eros, but Dresden insists no one knows what they did there, and there won’t be a better bargaining position for Fred when Earth sends its battleships. Fred basically calls Dresden Satan, but Dresden doesn’t understand the reference.

Need professional advice
Hi! I’m not certain this is the right sub to post on here, but figured I’d give it a shot.
I have a 2020 Buick Encore GX, 1.2 liter turbo 3 cylinder. I bought it brand new, and at this point have around 37,000 miles on it.
I’ve had a heck of a time taking it to the dealership I purchased the car, the past 4 months. I was curious about your professional perspective on the situation.
February - Check engine light came on. Took it in, warranty covered this repair:
1: Loose connector on the ECM, cleaned, reinstalled 2. Recall programmed ECM per recall procedure 3. Recall programmed BSCM per recall procedure
March - Car shit out. Didn’t know what it was - Towed it there & had battery replaced.
Last week: Check engine, “reduced power engine” message.
Felt a little uneasy with the dual problems in a row, so asked to speak to the service manager. She reviewed my file: “I see you had your battery replaced..and then you…came in for recalls?” Me- No I also had another issue that visit Her: “Oh….How do I say this without…do you want to be put with another service advisor?”
Super confidence inducing. Didn’t ask questions but said yes.
She also worked in the phone call “these encores. They’re a revolving door of problems” and advised me to “get out while I can with my warranty” she said years 2017-2020 are issue after issue. She also told me once I hit 50k my AC will go out and my car will start over heating., and “if you tell anyone I said anything, I’ll deny it”
I considered her warning, while waiting on my 3rd diagnosis. This time it is this:
35643 turbocharger p0299. found turbocharger rattling on cold start wastegate shaft rattling in turbocharger.
I’m taking the car in Wednesday to have the repair done (warranty covered). They had sent me back in my vehicle after diagnosis (no loaner cars) while waiting for part to ship.
However after several slip ups by this dealership and a huge lack in communication (I’ll spare you these details), I’m not certain I trust this ladies opinion about “getting out while I can”
I’ve researched my make and model and don’t see anything crazy worrisome. I’m aware I don’t have a Toyota or Honda - but has anyone heard or seen huge issues with this, is my car that much of a risk to stick with, or is she scamming me?
For reference I totally don’t want a car payment if I don’t need one. Can’t afford to buy another new car. Just want to weigh my risk here.
Thanks in advanced :)
Signed, very car illiterate

2024.05.18 14:14 SnarkSystems Fulgrim & Reflection Crack'd

TL;DR: Fulgrim's soul being hollowed out for the daemon in the Laer Blade. Snake Fulgrim is still Fulgrim.
Often when I see discussions on Fulgrim and Reflection Crack'd, it feels like the people who like one despise the other, mostly over the fate of Fulgrim. I'm currently up to Book 20 in the Horus heresy series with the anthology containing Reflection Crack'd and I'm a little confused over the disparaging reactions that I've seen to these books. I'd like to think that the events of the two books can be considered consistent over his fate assuming the rule of "everything is canon, not everything is true", combined with a theory which can be rationalised in part based on a few other tidbits of lore from outside the series itself. I would like to clarify and apologise beforehand though, as I've not read any EC content as of yet outside of the Horus Humbug, and cannot provide excerpts.
So the question I'd like to ask is exactly WHY we believe that the Fulgrim at the end of Reflection Crack'd is still the same Fulgrim, because I reckon the answer is mixed, not quite on either side. What if Fulgrim were not possessed by the daemon, but his soul carved up and diluted/ replaced in part with the Daemon. I have a few ideas I'd like to share as to why/ how this is:
Now I love these books, how insidious the presentation of Slaaneshi corruption is, and the particular subversion of Fulgrim through the Laer blade. When I look at Fulgrim, I see a dementia patient who is being subverted not through the loss of memory but rather a reinterpretation of it through what he believes to be himself. I see a Fulgrim who is being broken down, ready to be reconstituted and with this theory I believe that's exactly what happens. Fulgrim still falls, he does it through his own ignorance and arrogance, with the Daemon in the blade using Fulgrims insecurities as a means of leading him to damnation, but not driving him there. That was done by Fulgrim himself, and with the end of Fulgrim (book) we see where his fate is sealed, at the mercy of the Daemon in the blade.
I want to be clear, this theory is not to diminish the fate of Fulgrim, the flaws of his which lead him there, or what Fulgrim is the "real" Fulgrim. The idea behind this is that snake Fulgrim is still the principal Fulgrim, and that the involvement of the Daemon is more similar to the fate of Lotara's ghost. The difference is that he wasn't forced out from behind the wheel, he gave up control willingly in the selfish desire for oblivion. This theory is a means of connecting the two images people have of Fulgrim from between the two books and how one might explain why he "willingly" fell to Slaanesh after all he was put through in Fulgrim (book). He did do so willingly, it is just that after submission to Slaanesh and the Daemon, not all of him was needed.
Other reaches for evidence/ ideas:
(If this theory already exists somewhere sorry for the rehash)

2024.05.18 14:14 Loud_Salamander_1696 Does my anger indicate a type?

I am generally lazy, passive, absent minded, intellectual, aloof, day dreamer. But I also experience very intense anger. Like pure wrath. This is always triggered when people show disrespect or they act stupid or don't accept logical reasoning.
I think people should be respectful and have basic courtesy. When people try to be over smart or try to assert dominance, I get angry. When people do illogical things and don't accept my reasoning and just keep repeating themselves without explanation, it makes me angry.
This anger is expressed as doubling down on logical explanations and making people feel stupid by giving multiple examples. Also I curse sometimes and become hyper. But I still retain common sense, I wouldn't just hit someone or throw something at them, and get myself in trouble.
Also many times I don't realize how quickly I rise to anger and how combative I am being, my friends tell me I look like I am ready to physically attack the other person. In conflict, I always try to say things that invite shocked reactions from others.
My anger is ALWAYS a reaction to stupidity and disrespect. I cannot get angry at someone who is genuinely nice or if I am at fault. Even internally I am angry towards how people collectively act in society and reenact arguments in my head (the arguments i will use against these stupid people when I will meet them).

2024.05.18 14:14 FairlyRepulsive What's How can I stream Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk live free BOXING?

What's How can I stream Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk live free BOXING?. Hey fellow Boxing viewers. As I’ve been watching Boxing for quite a few seasons now, I've done some digging to access the trusty Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk Boxing streams. I pirate everything: sports, movies, TV Channels, and even made my own plex server. But lately I have gotten really into Boxing and haven't found a great way to watch Fury vs Usyk live for free...

What app/website are you using to watch the Boxing? ... I'm not 100% it's basically a live stream of the Boxing.

I pirate everything: games, movies, software, and even made my own plex server. But lately I have gotten really into UFC and haven't found a great way to watch Boxing Fight for free live.

Is there a way to Watch Fury vs Usyk Live Streams fRee Boxing? , I pirate everything: sports, movies, TV Channels, and even made my?

I don't care if there is a small delay or anything, but it needs to be at a good bitrate at 1080p or it isn't worth watch for me. Also preferably I would want a way to watch it on a smart TV in some way but im expecting to sacrifice that luxury honestly.

I have researched and found a few ways to watch it but I want to see what you guys recommend.

I apologize in advance if this is a silly question. I'm definitely new to the sport and this will be the first Fury vs Jaime I get to watch (yay!)

2024.05.18 14:13 Pleasant-Form-1093 Unsafe code in rust

As a side project, I had the idea of writing an alternative implementation of core and std (I just want to learn how they work inside and get a feel of it).
However I have seen that unsafe rust is frowned upon (maybe my impression so please correct me if I am wrong) and rewriting these libraries is quite literally impossible without unsafe.
So am I allowed to use them here under the reason that these libraries can't be written without unsafe?

BASICBITCHSLINGS. Made from Mil-W-17337 or A-A-55301 1” webbing and ITW/Duraflex hardware. $2 off each additional sling after the first one! Glamour shots of the slings!
sweatshopslings https://imgur.com/a/75ggP66 I took a chance on some "Vietnam Tiger Stripe" webbing and it is definitely imported and not true VTS pattern. That being said, the material is still good so I whipped up some slings and will keep them on until they are gone.
MEMERS https://imgur.com/a/HRhHipR Mostly Elastic, Maybe Ergonomic Rigs. Something for a credit union thief. Holds 4x AR mags (or whatever) and has the shock cord for 2x more whatevers. Comes with skinny straps and backstrap.

sWINGers https://imgur.com/a/2azTs0w Allows you to mount AR mags or similar sized items in all the ways, left, right, front, or back, just like the way you spend your weekends. Functionality here. All are $20 each shipped or 2 for $35.
2YOG Pouches https://imgur.com/a/kWyxtfr This is a spinoff of the YOG pouch I made previously to have 2 separate compartments, sized to slightly larger than 3x AR PMAGs. These were each mounted once then I pulled them off because I want to get a little crazy with the design. There is still the rear insert area that is sized for 2x AR mags. I don't have inserts made but if you need one I can make and add it on for an additional $10.
DNC prototype blow out pouch https://imgur.com/a/TGMrZX6 Same size as the LBT, but I wanted a pouch I could mount vertically on my cummerbund, hence the 90-degree rotated MOLLE on the rear. It is still able to be slid horizontally onto a belt and there is ~3" of clearance in that space. The pull tab is from a different pouch (LBT maybe idk) and is not made by me. $25 shipped.
RG Eagle Operator's Belt https://imgur.com/a/YxjAKD9 Size Small. This was on my kit for a few years but left the basement maybe a handful of times and it's in good shape. Does not come with the inner belt. Comes with my Prototype Dirt Chomper TQ holder. $80 shipped.
First Spear AOR2 SCAR-H Chest Rig https://imgur.com/a/sfSVGNG Catch and release from GAFS, bought it with an idea in mind and it did not work. I added the bungee and pull tabs (made from ATACS FG-X webbing which is close to the AOR2), not tied down so you can adjust it. Asking $65 shipped. If you need skinny/back straps and the male buckles I can whip those up with Ranger Green webbing and add them in for an extra $10.
Holsters and misc https://imgur.com/a/G47ElYE
Anyways if you made it this far thanks for looking and my FAQs are next!
FAQ
Where are all your things made? By me, on my 1940s sewing machine, in my craft room.
What materials do you use? For the most part, everything is made in the USA and Berry compliant. Generally speaking, I use the following: AA55301 or MIL-17337 webbing; Berry compliant 500D Cordura; MIL-W-5664 elastic; Berry compliant 550 paracord; Berry compliant shock cord; either Velcro and/or generic hook and loop; and ITW or Duraflex hardware. There may be some outliers. All my thread is a TEX 75 heavy duty thread from a US company.
What will the slings fit through? Anything that has a 1" slot, whether it's a QD, HK clip, plastic clip, rifle sling mount, paracord, zip ties, etc.
How do I install this through something or to my weapon? Step by step procedure here of what I do.
Do I have any clips or QD mounts? Not at this time, no.
Do you do custom work? Sometimes, depending on my schedule, but any transactions would not be through GAFS.
Do I have XXX color or product? If it's not listed I don't have it at this moment. Also, I have only been using Berry compliant webbing and no I have not found waifu webbing that is Berry compliant. Yet.
Why did you start this? In 2022 or so I was in the market for an inexpensive sling in a color other than black and also made in the USA. After I made a few for myself I started to produce these as a low-cost, high quality sling for anyone who was in the same boat I was in.
Why do you keep doing this? It's fun! Sewing has let me be creative and make myself kit that I like! Also allows me to prototype things and pass on my "old stuff" to you!

2024.05.18 14:12 Soggy_Rent1619 What is this called?

I've been struggling with an issue that seems to arise unexpectedly. Whenever I wake up in the morning, it feels like my mind wakes up a few seconds before the rest of my body catches up.
Here are the symptoms I experience:
Over the years, I've learned how to manage it when it happens. For instance, I avoid attempting to go back to sleep right away in the morning. Whether it occurs at 2am or 6am, I don't go back to sleep immediately.
This usually happens when I'm getting sick or already sick. Luckily, I don't get sick very often thanks to my strong immune system.
I've consulted various medical and sleep professionals regarding this issue, but nobody seems to have a clue about what it could be. We've also tried sleep tracking methods, but they haven't been successful due to the randomness of the symptoms. It usually happens for just one or two nights, making it difficult to schedule testing.
The closest possibility they've suggested is Sleep Apnea, but I passed the tests without any issues.
In general, I sleep well. I usually go to bed between 10pm and midnight and wake up between 5am and 7am. I stay asleep throughout the night, occasionally waking up for a snack or to use the bathroom. Going back to sleep after these interruptions is not a problem either.
I don't experience nightmares or bad dreams in general. My dreams are more of the "wait, did that actually happen or was that a dream" kind.
Most mornings, I wake up feeling well-rested. Does anyone have any idea what this could possibly be?
It's a terrible experience, and I don't take it lightly when it happens, regardless of how tired I may be. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Please forgive my wording and spelling as English is not my primary language.

2024.05.18 14:11 Relationshipopinion My wife’s friend moved in and things have gotten weird. Is my wife in the wrong?! What should I make of this?

My wife’s best friend who I will call Sarah moved in with us about 1 month ago after her husband had her arrested for getting physical with him and scratching his face. I have been a mutual friend with both Sarah and her husband that I will John. Our kids are friends and we would often get the families together. We have been put in the middle of the feud. John has a restraining order out on Sarah and the only way she gets to see the kids is supervised visitation. John listed my wife as the person that has to be present while her kids visit in 3 hour time blocks. I thought it was weird that John only listed my wife on there considering I am the only one (between my wife and I) that directly communicates with him (text and calls). John and my wife were always cordial to one another but between all 4 of us, they are the only two that had no real friendship. My wife is prettier than Sarah, and I have caught John staring at my wife’s chest and ass in the past. It never bothered me. During one of John and Sarah’s last fights, he said that Sarah’s face looked much older than my wife’s (both are very into skincare and anti-aging, so this really pissed Sarah off). John is an incredibly controlling husband that treated Sarah very poorly and my wife has always said that he is such an asshole and that she can’t stand him.
This is where things began to get weird…
After Sarah moved in, John continued to call me to discuss his wife. My wife told me that I was being too kind to him after the way he has treated her so poorly over the years, and having her arrested. My wife told me that it was time to choose a side (Sarah’s) and to stop talking with John. She told me I was two faced for continuing to speak with him. She called him Satan because he was already running around with a few different women and their kids, all while taunting her in various ways and trying to destroy her life. Suddenly John starts reaching out to my wife to schedule visitations with their kids based on my wife’s schedule. He could’ve listed both of us on the supervision list but he only put my wife. I suspect that he felt like it would lead to an open line of communication between the two of them(previously my wife didn’t even have his number in her phone) My wife acted very annoyed that she was put in that position because he never asked beforehand.. basically if Sarah wanted to see her kids, my wife would need to be involved. Here is where things got weird…
We had a birthday party for one of our daughters and we invited his kids to her party. He brought the kids and oddly stayed in the area with his youngest and waited around, but didn’t join the party. Later that day I sent him a text thanking him for the gifts they got. The next morning(Mother’s Day), one of the first things my wife does is send him a thank you text that I felt was a “gushing” thank you. It was weird to me that he was not only the first thank you text that she sent, but she only sent 3 out of the 8-9 parents that were there.
Is this thank you a bit much?
“We had the gifts mixed up but Sarah later clarified the gifts with the flower wrapping paper were from y'all! But as you can see, she loved them. Thank you very much for going out of your way to get them and for bringing the kids out to celebrate with Tara(our daughter) and waiting so patiently with jane(his youngest daughter). It meant so much to us!”
Here was my thank you the night before …
“Thanks a lot for all the stuff for Tara. She loved it all. You got much more than you should’ve”
John’s reply to my wife’s thank you text and then wishing her happy Mother’s Day.
“You are so welcome, a bit sad we were not able to be there as a complete family. Praying next year is different.”
“Happy Mothers Day, the kids and Dave are so blessed to have you.” (Clearly a compliment to her and a dig at his wife)
My wife’s reply…
Sunday 1:56 PM Thank you! I am sorry for leaving you hanging about today. Would you like to plan for around 430-730? We are getting a slow start and I just hoped to go to the beach for a little bit.
(She just says thank you? I would’ve thought she would’ve also said that their kids are blessed to have her best friend as a mom as well)
-John’s reply- That sounds perfect. See you then. Sunday 2:58 PM
(Sarah then sent a screenshot of the family app that they are legally allowed to communicate on. She told him that he was intruding on my wife’s Mother’s Day, and it was stressing my wife out, which was true. After seeing what Sarah told John, my wife felt compelled to reach back out to John with the following…
“Hey John. I'm not stressed. It just took forever to get the kids ready and out”
Keep in mind that he has repeatedly verbally abused her friend, has been hanging out with other woman, kicked her out of her house without her belongings, reported her to the state licensing board for her “arrest” and caused her license to be suspended, told her that he hope she died during an upcoming surgery she was supposed to have, and insulted her by implying that she was a harm to her kids and her best friend needed supervision during the time she spent with her kids… I was called “two faced” and told I was betraying Sarah, simply because I would answer John’s calls and texts.
We get home and John brings his kids over with a Mother’s Day plant and card (same ones, for my wife and Sarah). I thought this was weird and another way of slighting at Sarah, putting the two of them on the same level. The next day, my wife (who doesn’t garden) was watering the plants and walking around with the plants looking for a place to plant them. (I mentioned to Sarah that my wife watered the plants and she seems very surprised and upset that she did that, considering it was intended to be a slight to her.). I was very surprised considering our 9-year-old got her a plant from Lowe’s a year or two ago and she simply let it dry out and die on the counter (never watering it) which really hurt our daughters feelings….
Two days later I looked at my wife’s messages with John and was very surprised. My wife knew I had looked at her phone and sent me a nasty text to stay off of it. I told her that I was surprised that she was being so chummy with John considering how he has been treating Sarah, and had previously called me “two faced” for continuing to talk to John. I told her that her thank you to John was “gushing” and clearly made him feel good as he gave her a compliment about how blessed we were to have her immediately after that. I told her I was also surprised that she didn’t just have me tell him thank you considering she knows we talk and are friends. My wife got really mad and said she did nothing wrong and called me a jealous psycho. She said she would show the thread to Sarah because she had nothing to hide and did nothing wrong. I told her that I would strongly advise against it because I think it would hurt Sarah’s feelings and cause her to be upset with my wife. My wife continued to call me a lot of mean names and told me I needed professional mental help. She then changed the password on her phone. She then told Sarah that it would prob be best for her and John to coordinate through the app because I was acting very bothered by her talking to John (implying jealousy).
My wife and I began talking about the situation again yesterday and I told her that I wasn’t dwelling on it but wish she would acknowledge the inappropriateness of the conversation, considering the circumstances. She refused and again began calling me a psycho that is destroying her life. I told her that if she felt like it was a completely appropriate conversation, then she should show Sarah. She refused. She then sends me the following :
“I deleted his thread and his contact information. Accidentally called his number while I was trying to figure out how and immediately hung up. I’m sure you’ll say I called him on purpose. I have a screenshot of the thread so you won’t accuse me of trying to get rid of evidence.”
As it turned out, she didn’t have a screenshot of the thread. I found it very odd that she deleted the conversation (she did it during this last argument we were having about the appropriateness of it and telling her to show Sarah..
The other things that bothered me was that I wrote a kind Mother’s Day message on her Facebook, which she saw but never acknowledged on Facebook or said anything to me, and she completely ignored my happy birthday post to our daughter on Facebook. She was so quick to acknowledge the person she called “Satan” but not to her husband. I am considering the possibility that I am overly sensitive these days. My wife just went through a real bad case of postpartum rage where she was verbally abusive toward me and I genuinely felt like she hated me. It has left me with what she believes to be ptsd and says she feels very badly about it. It was the worst thing I have ever experienced and it nearly ended our family. Am I over-reacting or was my wife out of line?
Why did she delete the thread when I pressed her to show Sarah?
Was her thank you “gushing” and a bit much, considering the circumstances?
Is my wife really the one that’s two faced?
What should I make of John’s actions with my wife? Should it rub me the wrong way!?
Was telling my wife that we were so lucky to have her flirtatious and should she have replied that they were blessed to have Sarah!?
Would Sarah be hurt by my wife’s conversation with her husband?
Why did my wife feel so anxious to be the one to thank him for the gifts directly and praise him for coming and telling him it meant so much that he brought the kids and waited around?
Thanks in advance

2024.05.18 14:11 JefferyTheQuaxly Dumbest shit ever

I have been trying to fucking do the stupid belly of the beast quest and I’ve had to restart it now 3 fucking times, one time because I had to leave after already having found 4 transponders, then again just now when I found all the transponders and was in the fucking glasses cavern I get a fucking server disconnection notice, get kicked and entire progress for entire quest is fucking lost. Like why does fucking quest process reset if there’s a server disconnect?? Why?? This is the only MMO I’ve ever seen that does this?? Why?? How do I do this quest without finding the transponders again? Can I just run through mine and find the person and talk to him?? Will that auto progress my quest?? Because otherwise I’ll have to leave here go on the other side of the map and track like 5 fucking transponders again and walk all the way back here??

2024.05.18 14:11 NoWNoL Mental Health, Help?

So I’ve been through a variety of aid inside and outside the VA. I never really have a clue of what I’m doing and honestly I always feel like VA staff are afraid to say anything at all to me.
Saw the VA neuro and was given definite ADHD mentioned exacerbated by PTSD (afraid to say where) and suspicion of Schizophrenia which after personal assessment and research seems to appear on both sides of my family but more severely on moms side. There is overlap which makes it difficult to really say what causes what so instead I just work on strategies to work around my weaknesses.
I get asked questions and I don’t think staff that I have been lied to and manipulated by my family my entire life. My mom’s family is sick, I was raised to be my parent’s parent. I don’t trust people because I honestly never know what to believe because of it and it’s soul crushing to feel like I can’t trust other human beings but then questioning if I’m right or just believing internal conspiracy.
I have an appointment with a psychiatrist but need help because I feel like I often cope myself into normality. I’ve spent 3 decades pretending to be as normal as possible without realizing that’s not normal behavior.
How can I best help the psychiatrist do their job as accurately as possible. The last time I went in they just kept repeating “I’m not a therapist” and I don’t want to do that to myself again, I want to help them help me.
Advice for not making myself feel like I wasted anyone’s time? I know the focus is supposed to be on my care but I don’t know what to do other than complain about my biggest persistent issues.

2024.05.18 14:11 myawallace20 I didn’t realise how bad it was till my boyfriend moved in

Hi, I’d like some advice on how I can cope while we try and move out of here, as my mental health is starting to get severely impacted. For some background I am a 23 year old f and my 24 year old boyfriend has moved into my parents home from England, I’m in Scotland. Before he moved here I warned him my parents house was bad, but he said he didn’t care and just wanted to get a job up here ASAP. Then the recession was announced lmao. We’ve been here a few months and the longer he’s here the more comfortable my parents get. It’s not that they’re massive hoarders, although we do have a huge accumulation of things that aren’t needed, you can walk around and use things without it being too messy. However, they are filthy. The last time the shower was cleaned was September when I last done it, I’m doing social sciences in uni, I’m their adopted daughter diagnosed with BPD, and they have two sons who are 25 and 29 who don’t help either. I try to keep the place clean, but it’s getting to the point of impacting my school work, if I want to eat, if I want to do anything, I need to clean up after other people first. My dad is obese and can’t clean himself correctly after the toilet, and will often clean himself in the shower and then leaves poo all over the shower floor. When I tell him about this he will get mad at me for bringing it up, and my mum will “clean” it by spraying water at it but it never gets cleaned. I constantly am scared of getting e. coli or something when I shower. We have even been encouraged to list as homeless by a local charity who was concerned for me, but I’ve been waiting for months now with no luck because of Scotlands housing emergency. I’m not sure what to do. I’ve done everything I can so far to get out, it’s just a waiting game. How can I cope?????

2024.05.18 14:10 Money-Quantity-1845 How to identify the skills that will make you a millionaire

This is geared towards deciding what kind of service/consulting business you can start, or course you could create and sell. But also works for figuring out what kind of higher-paying job you can get, product-based business, etc.
PHASE 1: IDENTIFY
Take 30 minutes today, and 30 minutes tomorrow. Actually invest this time, over two separate days. It works 1000% better that way.
Write down as many answers as you can to the following questions:
1) What tasks are you good at?
(e.g. running, fixing cars, making girls laugh, brewing good coffee)
2) What skills have you learned well?
(e.g. programming, writing viral tweets, a sport)
3) What challenges have you overcome in life?
(e.g. fixed a stutter, overcome a phobia of X, dug yourself out of debt, lost 50 lbs)
4) In jobs you've had, what tasks did you do well at? Especially if you became the "go-to" guy when anyone needed this?
(e.g. calming down mad customers, creating excel spreadsheets, selling)
5) What's easy for you, that's hard for other people?
(finding great photo ops, getting girls' numbers, picking winning stocks)
Keep going until you get a MINIMUM of 30 things. 50 is better. If you don't have at least 30, think harder, and/or start asking friends what you're good at (this is a good thing to do anyway)
Once you have done that:
6) Find at least two friends and family who have known you for years. Ask them: "What have you noticed I am good at?" Ask them in a way that they can take time to give a thoughtful and thorough response (over text works well, since then you have a written record.) If they need prompting, help them with questions like:
This will give you many good additions to your list, which you would never have thought of on your own.
PHASE 2: CLASSIFY
Get a sheet of blank paper, divide it into 4 quadrants. Along the top, write "FEW <-> MANY". On the side, write "LOW <-> HIGH" (but write it sideways).
Take every single item you came up with in Phase 1, and classify it in two ways:
1) FEW vs MANY - How many people does this appeal to?
(e.g. Few: tuning your race car, advanced mathematics.
Many: get a raise at work, get more dates (for guys), find a great guy and keep him (for gals))
2) LOW vs HIGH price - what are people willing to PAY for this?
(e.g. Low: folding clothes, digging dirt, posting comments on twitter, how to throw a baseball
High: Writing advertisements that sell, finally getting in shape after failing at it for 20 years, launching a new high-paying career)
Write each into one of the 4 quadrants on your sheet of paper. If you're not sure, just guess - sort through them quickly, your first impression is fine.
PHASE 3: SORT
The sweet spot is MANY and HIGH PRICE. If you can solve a problem that many people have, and they're willing to pay an arm and a leg for, and you can actually solve that problem for people - that's the easiest to monetize.
For FEW and LOW price - forget about those.
In fact, forget about most LOW price - No one's going to give you stacks of cash for your high-end agency or course for repairing holes in socks.
The exception is something that is you feel you can serve to MANY people, at a profit. You come up with a unique product that you can sell worldwide through Walmart, for example.
Your best bets will probably be on the HIGH end. The more people who want it, the better.
PHASE 4: FILTER
Make a spreadsheet (or write it on paper) with your ideas in the first column, and then five more columns with these labels:
Evaluate your ideas on a scale of 1 to 5 for each of these facets:
  1. NEED. Is this something people desperately need? The more it is a "need" rather than a "want", people are more likely to pay for it.
    [5 = desperately need, 1 = completely optional]
  2. ENTRY. How easy is it for a competitor to clone your business, and compete with you? Barriers can include copyright/IP law protections, unique reputation or brand, ingrained habits of the market, etc.
    [5 = difficult to clone and compete, 1 = no barrier to competing]
  3. CONTROL: Do you have control over the product or service being sold, your pricing, etc.? Or is it controlled by some other entity (e.g. with affiliate marketing)?
    [5 = you have full control over every aspect of the business, 1 = some other entity has full control]
  4. SCALE: If it becomes profitable, can you ramp up sales (and profit) by a factor of 10? 100? 1,000? What is the MAXIMUM monthly profit this may grow to?
    AND: how easily can it ramp up to that limit?
    Do you have to hire, train and retain expensive employees to scale it?
    Or can you use automation to scale up without effort?
    A food cart on a street corner has a low upper limit to its profit. A nationwide restaurant chain can scale that 1000x, but that will cost a lot of money and time. In contrast, a SaaS computer program can quickly scale up worldwide, maybe even without having to bother hiring any employees at all.
    [5 = scale to the moon easily, 1 = cannot scale high or will be difficult/expensive to scale]
  5. TIMING - How much of YOUR time is required for the day-to-day operation? At the beginning, of course you will be fully involved. But is there at least a potential path to where it can continue to earn money without requiring a lot of your time?
    [5 = you can eventually drop off the grid for a month and it continues printing money, 1 = it only ever earns money while you are giving it your full attention]
Once you have ranked your ideas on these dimensions, select one you feel you can be successful with. An idea that is all 5's is likely to be much better than an idea that is all 1's, but in the end go with your gut.
PHASE 5: EXECUTE
Test it. Create an idea for how to make money on it - whether that's building a business around it (ideally), or getting a job/side hustle - and put that plan into action.
It'll either work or it won't. You'll either make $ or you won't. If not, asking people for feedback in this room. You may need to pick a different idea. Maybe the idea's great, and you need to execute differently.
But keep going, learn from your experiences, and NEVER GIVE UP. There is no failure, you either learn or succeed. The only possible failure is doing nothing and letting time pass by unused.
PRODUCTIVITY WHILE COOLING OFF.
A productive activity that takes very little effort is reading through the money room and spend a good amount of time going through it.
You’ll see how hundreds of guys are making real life building money. Go through them all, and find 5 that appeal to you, and the telegram username of who’s making money that way.
You should be able to answer basic questions. How much do they make monthly from that income source? How long did it take to make that income? How long did it take to get their first payday from that income source? Did they have any prior skills that were required to be able to start that income source? Etc.

2024.05.18 14:09 Mysteriousbride0193 ADHD/ anxiety/ depression and vaping is the only thing that keeps me motivated

Today is my first day of quitting (again) and I really want to stick to it this time. The only problem is, I’ve associated vaping with giving me the willpower to get stuff done which is hard when I’m also struggling with depression, anxiety and newly diagnosed adhd. I know vaping only makes these mental health problems worse in the long run, but it really does feel like something that is helping me in moments. Working hour and hours on a computer at work- seems more doable when I’m vaping. Driving- gets repetitive and boring and I can only stay focused enough when I’m vaping. Vaping makes me feel happy (but shortly sad) when I’m struggling to find a reason to. It gives me that dopamine boost I need to literally survive. It makes me motivated. It tricks my mind into thinking I’m doing the right thing. I even associate sleeping, using the bathroom, showering- with vaping. I’m getting treatment for my mental health so hoping that once I’m in more of a stable place, i find my motivation without depending on a vape but in the mean time- How are you getting over vape association? Any tips?

2024.05.18 14:07 PyroFirefly After almost a week since his release, how do you feel about LR AGL Ultimate Gohan?

After almost a week since his release, how do you feel about LR AGL Ultimate Gohan?
https://preview.redd.it/1yyier9u661d1.png?width=374&format=png&auto=webp&s=eaa3f7c4812cb1e82a2909415007e3547952536d
Aesthetic-wise, I like what they've done by animating scenes from the manga. Sure, they could've put more effort into dynamizing those panels and making them less stiffy, but I'd say it's the current trend with Z animations (at least the ones based on the manga), so not as worse as it might look in x1.
Despite being an Extreme Class OST enjoyer, I adore the heroic vibes from his Active Skill OST, a savior who is overconfident about his strength. And not to mention the guitar riff, which reminds me of PHY Goten & Trunks' OST.
Performance-wise, I have been lucky to get him at 69% with 200 stones - I must resist the urge to finish the round, as it's clear that the other two remaining multis will be a shaft. I can't say I haven't had fun with him, but he's a character that wants dupe to give him crit. His offensive value benefits from a crit-build a lot! And in his Active Skill turn, he can be a menace, especially at the beginning of the last phase. Also, I'm intrigued by the concept of a damage dealer capable of helping the team to survive with some support. Now, Gohan is a bit restricted, as without his intro activated + orbs changing (which requires a full Majin Buu Saga rotation), getting his 24 Ki can be tricky. But still, that initial DEF support to all allies have lots of value, and this concept might be implemented in future units (I pray for Extreme Class characters).
Still, I see him as more of a premium character that you want to get to complete the damage of the Majin Buu Saga team or want to run him next to EZA TEQ Gohan, always in Majin Buu Saga-oriented setups. Compared to Ginyu, on paper, he looks less impactful because of how his kit works. However, he's still a solid addition to the Majin Buu Saga team (only if you want to chase at least one extra copy of him), and there's still the possibility that such a team improve with another big celebration (Tanabata or WWC?), which means Gohan might have a brighter future on his horizon as a great featured pick in Carnival Banners.
So, what's your opinion of LR AGL Ultimate Gohan?

When all else fails to resolve the Windows update error number 0x80070005, follow these steps to manually update your Windows. The Windows Update Catalog is a repository from which you can obtain cumulative or significant updates and manually install them, just like any other software.
  • Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.
  • Click 'View Update History' and take note of the Windows Update version code.
  • Then visit Windows Update Catalog.
  • In the search bar, insert your update version code and press the 'Enter' or 'Search' button.
  • Select the 'Download' option.
  • Download the update and install it on your Windows PC.
Restart the system.
If you encounter any errors or the update does not install successfully using the manual approach, reboot your PC.
Step 8: Reset Windows installation.
Please keep in mind that when you reset your PC, your personal files on the C: disk are wiped, so consider it a fresh Windows installation.
This option can undoubtedly resolve problem code 0x80070005. So, if you haven't previously done so, backup your data before proceeding!
  • Press Windows + X and select 'Settings', then 'Update & Security.'
  • Click the 'Get Started' button under 'Reset This PC' and then follow the on-screen directions to reset your Windows PC.
If you are still having problems, reinstall Windows using the Windows installation CD.

Conclusion

Always backup your files before updating Windows! While Windows update installs are generally error-free, there is a danger you will lose your file if the update does not install successfully. This could occur as a result of defective updates or an access denied error. The Windows update error code 0x80070005 indicates that the user does not have the necessary permissions, causing the installation to fail or abort.
Faulty updates may occasionally erase your files. It happened during the latest big Windows October 2018 update release, when the 'Document' folder was destroyed after installation. In all such cases, utilize specialized backup or windows data recovery software, such as BLR Data Recovery.

2024.05.18 14:05 Frequent-Speaker-383 Horror story with the Tunisian Diwena

Hey my people,
More than 5 years ago I was about to fly second time to Germany and this Diwena guy asked me if I have Euros I said yes as an honest citizen that thinks he did not broke any law, he said you cannot take them with you, and treated me like a criminal basically and gathered his colleagues and confiscated my money (was more than 1000 euros, I was a student intern) , I was about to pay rent from that money, they made me sign some paper "ma7dher" and was about to miss my plane and they put. "مشتبه به" next to my name and the diwena guy was smiling and happy.
The same diwena guy took me to airplane hurrying like somehow they wanted to get rid of me, he knew I don't have a single cent but the son of bitch knew that by getting me in the airplane would be less trouble for him.
I decided that I need to fly because I have work in Germany and will fight another day,.
I store some food that they gave us in the airplane in my bag, and when leaving the airport some Tunisian guy knew what happened and gave me 50 euros. never forgot his name.
Anyway raskit train lwest lbleed w kallemt s7abi bech yo3rdhouni luckily I landed in a city that I have some friends in it.
My family was an average income family and they couldn't help me so they watched me suffering through that days to save the money to pay the bills
this event left a huge scars in me and not gonna lie a deep hatred in the early years for the country, how I was thrown without any money to be sent to a foreign country that's not my country, was symbolic, and the way I was treated.
I checked the laws and seems like the law doesn't prohibit me from taking less than 5000 DT abroad. At that moment I knew Elli Ena tebrakit men dawla.
I got into the rabbit hole of Diwena for years and it's the most corrupt mafia like establishment in Tunisia.
I now get super anxious when thinking of investing in Tunisia, and probably will invest in Morocco, also I have trust issues towards Tunisia as a state.
The amount they took is really miniscule for me now but the ramifications of that event are huge.
Are average Tunisians aware of the scale of corruption in Diwena ?

2024.05.18 14:05 Realistic_Crab7372 I don’t know if the friendship with my best friend is worth it anymore

Me (21M) and my best friend “I will call him Jason in this post” (20M) have been friends for almost a decade. And for the last few years, he’s mostly been my only friend. He’s not the most social person either so we spent a lot of time together. We always had mostly similar passions and interests, we have the same humour and therefore had a lot of great times. I experienced a lot of great things together with him, like some really cool trips, or experimenting a little with drugs etc.. Therefore I hold a lot of value to this friendship.
But now for why I’m making this post. For the past few months or maybe even for the last year and a half, things haven’t been the same. When I graduated from school and started at university I tried to use the chance and tried to socialise more. This isn’t easy for me but I found some friends at university that are really cool and I think they find me cool as well. Of course we’re meeting up sometimes, and sometimes I brought Jason along because I thought it’ll be funny and we would have a good time. But it wasn’t, he was quite for almost the whole duration of the meet ups. Even when trying my best to include him it didn’t work out and that made things a bit awkward tbh and I regretted bringing him with me. After multiple times of him not saying anything to anyone i just stopped inviting him, which maybe is uncool from me but no way he actually enjoyed being there. I of course still spend most of the time with him, just for when others are involved I don’t bring him with me. He didn’t say anything to me about wanting to come to such meet ups so that’s just how it is now. My Problem with this is that like I said I mostly didn’t have many friends as a teenager, it was just him. But now I’m a bit older and I don’t want sitting on a bench and smoking weed alone with him be the only thing I do when going out anymore. And he just doesn’t seem to be wanting the same. This of course is really far away from quitting a friendship that lasted a decade, but there has been something else that combined with what I described right now makes me doubt the future of this friendship.
The second Problem is his Attitude in the last one and a half years. In some Moments he is annoyingly sensitive. I’m not a bad guy, I don’t say stuff that may hurt other people just for my own amusement. But of course I, like everybody else, like to do some banter, normal things in a friendship I would say. But for quite some time he can’t take a fucking joke and it’s really unbearable. Like for example last week we wanted to play a shooter game which we played a lot a few years ago, yk for the good old times and stuff. We talked about it the whole week and organised when we would do it. We both are really busy with university right now so time for hour long gaming sessions is spare, we said let’s do it on friday and I was really excited the whole week. Then Friday comes and I was ready for gaming with my bro for the whole night, the first round starts and I die very soon, my skills were a bit rusty. He was still alive and when he got approached by enemies he missed his whole magazine without one hitting one bullet. In my opinion this was a funny situation and I laughed a bit and said something along the lines of "damn not even one hit", after that he didn’t say anything and after a few minutes he said that he wants to go off. We wanted to play for the whole night but finished after 20 minutes because he didn’t like my comment I guess? I personally think this is silly behaviour and this didn’t happen for the first time, I could give you even more examples but don’t want this to get too long. This change in attitude btw happened before I started having some other friends so I think there’s no connection. And I know for a fact that everything’s going fine at home, so no extra stress or something that bothers him. Therefore I have to assume that this is just the person he developed into and I’m going to be honest I personally can’t really stand it. I of course asked him if everything’s right when such things happened but he always said that everything’s fine and pointed to blame to me.
So this is the situation and like I said in the title, I don’t know if this is worth it anymore. I without a doubt wouldn’t wanna be friends with a person that behaves like this but we’ve been best friends for a long time and I feel bad for maybe ending this. Therefore I’m asking you for help, is there maybe something I can do or what would you do in this situation? Or should I just accept that it’s over?
Thanks in Regards.
tl;dr : Best friend makes it hard to be friends with him and I don’t know if the friendship is worth it anymore

2024.05.18 14:03 trischelle RealSelf Reviews and Exparel Shot

2 Questions:
  1. RealSelf Reviews
  2. Exparel Shot
  3. One of the surgeons I’m considering was top of her class at Yale, double board certified, accolades galore. Her Google reviews are great and fairly recent. Her RealSelf reviews however, not a single good review since September 2020. Granted, there’s only 4 reviews since then but all of them are different cases. She has a total of 95 RealSelf reviews and more than 500 Google reviews. How much stock should I put into RealSelf reviews?
  4. Anyone get a TT with MR without exparel vial? I’m trying to decide between two surgeons. My top choice doesn’t use exparel and I’d love to hear from others who’ve had the same surgery without it.

2024.05.18 14:02 ok_ivegotnth Neck and back injury in toddler

Hello everyone. Im typing this in a lot of stress so Im hoping that it makes sense. I was holding my toddler standing on the bed, Im 1m60 female. The my toddler while in distress and was crying had arched her back and fell backward onto the mattress. Her whole body fell with her too as I couldnt catch her and then Im not sure what exactly happened but I saw her falling on her neck and roll over and she immediately cried. My toddler is 32m 13.5kg, 90cm . I pick her up (I shouldnt have) but I was panic and I checked on her, since she cried saying hurting on her neck (but more on the shoulder at the back) then I asked if she could raise her arms and legs and move her neck. she was able to do it. then she smiled and fell asleep afterwards. she slept for 1h30 straight. she woke up being a bit irritated. I honestly just thought she was still being mad at how she was being tired still and being mad at me. She asked for food and drink normally, She ate normally and then we have a movie night together. Thru out it all I kept asking if she was ok.If she was hurtinf and she said no. She was even put up a fight when I tried to wipe her body down since its cold at where we live and I dont want her to take a bath too late today. Her kicks were still very strong so I didnt think too much about it. She was kicking me while I tried wiping her down then I asked her to kick the pillow instead if she angry and she did it, a few kicks then she stopped. I gave her ipufen once after the nap because I was thinking she might still be in pain but not telling me so if I could give her a bit of something it could make her feel more comfortable. 5ml only.
Then when she about to sleep, she become strangely quiet. and asked me to massage her back (from middle to a little lower than the middle back) and was saying it hurts then drifted to sleep.
She has been sleeping for 2hrs now without waking up. when she was awake she was able to run and walk still normally, she could climb on the bed normally. But now that I think about it, she did take just a tiny bit longer to climb up.
IM currently seperating from my husband, getting divorce and Im so so scared that he might use this incident to say that I abuse our child to make me lose custody (Child is with me) I also scare complicated thing might happen to my child and she might be paralysed forever. Im so so terrified I dotn know what to do. Should I bring her to ER? or wiat till tmr for GP? because I already book an appointment for her with our GP 1st thing in the morning.
Please help. I hope I get the answer here.

2024.05.18 14:01 calamarispider how to tell if facial hair is terminal or not?

as the title says. im nonbinary, on T to lower my voice primarily (as well as testing to see if the muscle/fat redistribution change would help my joints. it did not lol, although ive had less endo pain which is nice). one thing i wanted to avoid was beard growth, bc i dont think id be able to manage the upkeep. the plan was to take T until my voice drops, or facial hair starts growing in. about eleven weeks/nearly three months in now, my voice has dropped a reasonable amount that im happy with and ive noticed the hair on my upper lip seems to have grown longer and somewhat darker. what im wondering is whether its vellus or terminal, or... terminal but the vellus hasnt fallen out yet...? the hair is still soft, noticable if i feel it or look for it but less obviously changed at a glance. what does this indicate exactly? if i stop T, will they revert back to how it was before, or has it hit the stage of 'permanent'? im okay with either option, but id rather avoid any further growth anywhere else and want to get a better idea of what to expect. if it isnt a sign of a permanent change, id want to take T for at least a little longer to max out the time without endo pain, but im not sure what would be best B:•P any and all advice is appreciated thank you!
