Two guys one horse video actual video

I’ve been spending too much time watching videos of gear I don’t actually need. I thought it would be inspiring to see what creative people are doing with minimal setups. Show off your creativity and inspire others to master what they already have ! <3

From what I've noticed, smartphone manufacturers have slowly caught up with the iPhone in terms of camera quality. But the iPhone, in my experience, still outshines the others when it comes to video quality. Specifically on how optimized the video looks. No jittering, no choppy frames, no lag when changing zoom lens, no focus issues, good color accuracy, etc. The result is a very pleasurable video to watch overall, straight out of the camera.
As an Android guy, I find iOS to be too restrictive. Where I live, we don't use FaceTime and iMessage and therefore, there is no real requirement for anyone here to get an iPhone. It's just personal preference and in my case, the only thing I like about the iPhone is the video quality. My dream phone in an imaginary world would be a Samsung S24 with an iPhone camera for videography.
Why is videography in the latest Android flagships still not as optimized as the iPhone? I find it hard to believe that Samsung still hasn't figured out how to do a smooth transition when changing zoom lens during a video recording like the iPhone. Also why does a 30 fps video shot on an Android phone like the Samsung S24 look much more choppier, jittery and artificial looking compared to one shot on an iPhone in the same format? Does it have anything to do with the processing of the video codec?
Are there Android phones with video quality that could compete with the iPhone? Would appreciate any enlightenment on this topic.

This is a song that has no lyrics which sports teams are now using as pre-game hype song. I have heard it at two different arenas in the past month, so I don't think it's team-specific. I don't believe I heard this song before 2024, so I suspect it is either new, or has newly risen in popularity.
This is a 30 second video I recorded of it where you can hear the song over the noise of the crowd. Shazam didn't recognize it, but if anyone knows - let me know!

Round 1, Pick 13 - Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia:
NFL: This is the Raiders willing to adjust the offense to take the best player available. Bowers is a spectacular player who can line up anywhere along the formation as a tight end. There aren’t many holes in his game -- which should urge new OC Luke Getsy to get creative and get Bowers and Michael Mayer on the field together.
CBS Sports: C. He’s a heck of a player, but didn’t they draft Michael Mayer last year and signed Harrison Bryant this year? They have other needs. Don’t really like this pick that much. It’s not like he’s a good blocker for their run game. Strange pick with other needs.
ESPN: What a strange first-round selection, especially considering tight end was addressed last season with the second-round selection of Michael Mayer. Offensive tackle and cornerback were bigger needs. New general manager Tom Telesco must have simply relied on his draft board and gone best player available, especially with Oregon State RT Taliese Fuaga and every single CB still available. In fact, every defensive player was still on the board, and yet ... Bowers was considered a top-10 overall talent and should provide immediate production for an anemic offense.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Cries during Bluey but only at the opening credits.
Round 2, Pick 44 - Jackson Powers-Johnson, OG, Oregon:
NFL: Brock Bowers felt like a throwback Raiders pick to me, but JPJ really feels like an Al Davis classic. Powers-Johnson is a big, brawling interior lineman who played center last year but also can line up at guard -- the position he was announced at -- and bury the man opposite him, even if he's a little stiff and an average athlete.
CBS Sports: A. Instant starter inside. Guard size with mobile center feet. Shorter arms and some rawness in pass pro. But upside is through the roof. All-Pro caliber in that regard. Smart pick here.
ESPN: While Powers-Johnson played center at Oregon, the Raiders announced him as a guard, which makes sense since Las Vegas needs a right guard. Yes, even after the Raiders signed veteran Cody Whitehair in free agency. Powers-Johnson has started games at both guard spots and center in his college career. Last season, he started 13 games at center, was an All-America selection and won the Rimington Award as the nation's top center. He provides quality versatility, which is highly valued on the Raiders' offensive line.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: He somehow still uses a functioning Windows phone.
Round 3, Pick 77 - DJ Glaze, OT, Maryland:
NFL: A left or right tackle with great length and so-so athleticism, Glaze was considered a question mark because of some past injuries (including an ACL), but the Raiders clearly feel good about him here. He's likely a swing tackle to start out but could compete for a starting job down the line.
CBS Sports: A-. One of the more calculated OTs in the class. Rarely panics and has plus awareness. Requisite size and length to stay on the edge in the NFL. Athleticism is at times great but not a true speciality. Nothing overly standout about his game. Just high floor blocker.
ESPN: After taking a versatile interior offensive lineman in the second round in Powers-Johnson, the Raiders used their third-round pick to grab a college tackle who could also transition inside to guard in Glaze. The selection shows how much the new regime of GM Tom Telesco and coach Antonio Pierce value versatility on the offensive line, which is all but set on the left side and at center. Glaze has a long wingspan at nearly seven feet but is not known for being overly physical.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Prefers the arrows on the keyboard over WASD.
Round 4, Pick 112 - Decamerion Richardson, CB, Mississippi State:
NFL: I joked on Day 2 that the Raiders are having another Al Davis-flecked draft, and Richardson keeps the theme rolling. He's a straight-line speed demon with great length, two very encouraging traits. But his penchant for handsy coverage and no real track record for playmaking mutes his appeal just a bit.
CBS Sports: A-. Long, sleek burner who will make plays on the football when he trusts his eyes. Lacks physicality at times and that hurts him when attempting to stop the run although when he gets to the football, he’s a very sure tackler. Smooth athlete in off-man and zone. This secondary needed this type of CB specimen.
ESPN: The Raiders finally address their defense at defensive back in particular, with Richardson who is 6-foot-2 and ran the 40 in 4.34 seconds. He needs development but did lead Mississippi State with 7 pass breakups last season, even as he never had an interception. He's also not afraid to stick his nose in the scrum as he had a combined 164 tackles the last two seasons.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Thinks scotch tape smells like Christmas.
Round 5, Pick 148 - Tommy Eichenberg, LB, Ohio State:
NFL: Instinctive, throwback linebacker who lacks great speed. Eichenberg has the makeup to turn into a defensive tone-setter, even if his coverage ability is limited.
CBS Sports: A-. Ultra-active middle linebacker with a blitzing specialty. Smooth athlete a bit quicker than fast. Awareness is good in coverage, he will find crossers and understand in-breakers are working behind him. Strong tackler. Lack of speed and at times problems vs. blocks are weaknesses but this is a sound football player.
ESPN: Coach Pierce, who spent nine years as an NFL linebacker, gets his guy in the 6-foot-2, 233-pound Eichenberg, who provides depth while translating into a backup for Robert Spillane. Eichenberg did miss three games with an arm injury last season, a year after he was second-team All-American. More a thumper inside than a pass-coverage specialist, Eichenberg had 82 tackles (2.5 for a loss), a sack and a forced fumble in 10 games last season.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Played the role of background tree in his middle school play.
Round 6, Pick 208 - Dylan Laube, RB, New Hampshire:
NFL: Laube become something of a folk hero at the Senior Bowl, charming fans with his personality, elusiveness and pass-catching prowess. He had 295 yards receiving against Central Michigan alone this year and legitimately could emerge as a third-down weapon in the pass game.
CBS Sports: A-. Insane receiving RB. Built low to the ground and had fine testing figures before the draft. Low, side to side wiggle but lacks speed once he finds space. Contact balance is good too. Think the small-school Blake Corum.
ESPN: An FCS All-American all-purpose player, Laube projects more as a potential kick and punt returner in the NFL rather than a rotational running back. He averaged 31.1 yards on kick returns and 11.3 yards on punt returns and had a touchdown on each. He rushed for 749 yards and nine TDs, averaging 4.7 yards per carry last season, and also had 68 catches for 699 yards with seven receiving scores, including a 295-receiving yards game against Central Michigan.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Once wrote 250+ fake true facts for nfl draft cards like a moron.
Round 7, Pick 223 - Trey Taylor, S, Air Force:
NFL: Air Force has landed a few players in the draft the past few years after a long absence, and Taylor could make it either as a box safety or a special teams contributor.
CBS Sports: A. Thick, productive three-level safety best being closer to the line. Plays with controlled athleticism. Gets grabby against better athletes but that’s expected for a larger safety. Solid ball skills. Not ultra twitchy. Smart well-rounded type.
ESPN: The first-ever defensive back drafted out of the Air Force Academy, Taylor won the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top defensive back. He figures to provide immediate depth behind starters Marcus Epps and Tre’von Moehrig, but at 6-feet, 213 pounds, he has the size and instincts to be an immediate contributor. Taylor, whose cousin is Hall of Fame safety Ed Reed, had three interceptions, one pick-six, 74 tackles, five for a loss, four PBUs and a blocked kick last fall.
NFL Absolutely Not Fake News: Yes, you reading this COULD have come up with better Facts.
Round 7, Pick 229 - MJ Devonshire, CB, Pittsburgh:
NFL: Devonshire is a fast, tough competitor with size limitations. He was never a full-time starter in college but had strong ball production the past two years.
CBS Sports: B+. Long CB who has the frame of a nickel. Fast, decently explosive athlete. Best in press man near the line. Average to slightly above-average ball skills. Zone awareness not there yet. High floor type.
ESPN: The Raiders concluded their draft by taking their second cornerback of the day in Devonshire, who is more a physical defender who does not shy away from bump-and-run coverage than a speedy DB, though he did run a 4.45 40. The 5-foot-11, 186-pound Devonshire led Pitt with four interceptions last season, including a pick-six, and had 10 PBUs in 12 games with nine starts. Las Vegas split their eight draft picks evenly between offense (TE, G, OT, RB) and defense (two CBs, S, LB).

Hi guys!
Living in PG for the last 4 months and planning to shift to 1RK so wanted to know what's the monthly cost one need to bear as I have no idea what to buy including basic utensils, gas, stove etc. And also what are the daily hurdles I may face as I am totally new to this. Planning to have a maid for cooking and cleaning so what it is gonna cost me on an average.
Rent - 14k excluding electricity
Area - Saraswati Vihar, MG Road
Furnished 1RK - TV, Fridge, A.C and Two Beds

Apologies for this convoluted mess of a post, I’m in a pretty high emotional state and just wanted some second opinions.
First thing you should know, I have always been incredibly passionate about societal issues involving all aspects of life. Whether that be racism, classism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, etc.. I am a white woman from a developed country and I recognise the privilege that I have and I ensure I do not take away the voice of minorities but simply find ways to advocate and amplify those voices and to continuously educate myself to be culturally aware and sensitive. I’m trying my best in doing what I can.
That being said, I have been with my boyfriend for 4 years now and he has known this about me since the beginning (also my bf is white).
Now, when I say “pretend to be a misogynist”, I honestly was the first one to really use this as a joke. For example, when I would come across a TikTok of a guy on a podcast saying that men have the capacity and right to cheat but women cannot because they get too emotionally involved, I would show my bf the clip and say “No because he’s spitting straight facts and why stop there? Women are emotional creatures and men are rational thinkers, which is why men don’t cry. If you’re in touch with your emotions, you’re a pussy.” Basically just some exaggerated bullshit that I would say in a sarcastic tone to really highlight how laughable these ideologies are.
He loved this and thought it was hilarious so he started to use the joke as well. He began to use it so frequently that at one point I jokingly said “I’m starting to think that you’re beginning to believe the shit you’re saying.” To which he doubled down and said “Oh no, you’ve caught me” and laughed it off. A little red flag was risen in my mind but I shrugged it off and reminded myself that I was in fact the one to introduce him to the joke.
Recently, I’ve been really struggling with my anxiety and depression due to everything that’s going on in the world and how it feels like we are progressing backwards as a society at times. I have had to take frequent breaks off of social media because of the bigotry I kept frequenting in TikTok comments and it would send me down a spiral of losing hope in humanity essentially (I know this is a showcase of my privilege to be ignorant, but I had to make the difficult choice of putting my mental health first).
I became quite sensitive to any sort of bigotry and asked my bf if we could at least pause with “pretend to be a misogynist” jokes as in my vulnerable state these ideologies were no longer laughable but frightening. He seemed confused as to how that would help but agreed.
Now to the event that caused me to question my bf’s intentions when making these jokes. Harrison Butker infamously made his commencement speech recently spouting traditional ideologies of a woman’s role as a homemaker under the guise of religion. This of course irked me and made me so incredibly upset for the women in the graduating class that had just worked their butts off for 4 years that had to sit and listen to this man that their greatest accomplishment in life will be when they become a wife and mother.
I of course shared this to my bf, saying how utterly disappointed I am that an influential figure can openly make these statements and think nothing wrong of it. In this moment, I truly just wanted him to share in my disappointment and disgust. Instead, he replies with “King shit 🤴”. I gave him another chance by asking “Don’t you think it’s foul that people still think this way? That a woman should amount to no more than a homemaker?” He replies with “He’s speaking his truth.”
I know I should have communicated my frustration but I just didn’t have the energy to start an argument over text. And frankly, I started to go into another one of my dissociative spirals where I was picking apart previous times my bf has made these sorts of jokes and I have given him the chance to express his actual concern on these sorts of issues but he always just sorts of doubles down on the joke and moves on in the convo giving me the clear signal that he doesn’t want to discuss this sort of thing anymore. Even though he knows how passionate I am with societal issues and particularly in this present moment with how it is actually affecting my mental health.
And to add fuel to the fire, whilst I HIGHLY don’t recommend comparing your relationship to those that you see online I had come across a TikTok of a woman showing her husband the speech and him immediately expressing his concern and disdain.
Is it all my doing since I started the joke so he thinks it’s okay? Am I thinking too deeply in thinking that he continuously brushes off any sort of discussion about societal issues? How do I approach him about my concern without him instantly denying and shutting it down?
TLDR: My (22F) bf (21M) agreed with Harrison Butker’s speech as a “joke” even though I asked him to stop making these kinds of jokes.

I’ve played league in general for about a month or maybe even 2, I loved lillia one week into playing the game and play her top. Well today while finding some gameplay to watch I found a guy playing lillia mid and honestly I had nothing to lose so I watched some of the video, shuffled around my runes, and started a game with my boyfriend. When I tell you this was the worst game of my life.
I was doing great in mid, not dying, doing tons of damage, and buying items. Around mid game the team fights ensued, I was doing a lot of damage and smart ults but it came very apparent to me the 3 others on our team must’ve thought I was the support or something because they stole collectively 15 KILLS from me, yes I said 15, the most I’ve ever gotten since playing the game. So throughout the hour long game I had 1 kill and was so behind because they stole every single one.
Could it get worse? Yes it could! Late game the lot of them besides me and my boyfriend just stayed in base, not pushing or doing anything. The only time they’d come out was when I had gotten someone on the enemy team low enough to kill. The entire time I was so pissed, they tried to shit talk me cause i died like 10 times(Galio had died 20 but no one mentioned that ofc), but when I told them to get their own kills they shut up pretty fast. If it wasn’t for them I would’ve been the fastest and done the most damage, but no.
Altogether that game was my worst nightmare and now I understand why people throw keyboards across the room.

HI guys. I have been working on a feature to make manual connection to MongoDB, but wasn't successful for past 2 days. Please help me with this implementation. My requirement on how to build this project are as below:

• I don't want to make mongo connection at startup
  
• I want to send the mongo connection uri as a requestbody in the rest API controller to trigger the connection.
  
• So there should be two api, one with connection uri to create mongo connection and another api to terminate the connection
  

But the problem is I cant stop spring from auto connecting to mongo. The reason I want to stop auto connect is so that I can connect with custom uri whenever needed as the tomcat server is needed.
Not sure if I put my requirement correctly, will edit the post as you guys help me along the way. Thank you in advance. And I'm still a newbie, so I don't know much practices , so please guide .

TL;DR: Where are some good sources of info if I want to start learning more about this car and how to change it to my own liking? I've looked at videos but the learning is very unstructured and I'm missing a lot of foundational mechanical knowledge.... where do I start? What are some good basic modifications that can be made to it past maybe a trunk light? People say suspension a lot online, I don't really know what to look for or why?
Main post:
I'm not really a car guy. I would love to learn though, because boy am I enjoying this Miata.
I just bought a 2017 recently because I love the look of the ND the most, although the other ones are awesome too. I've been driving it for quite a while and have loved it. I knew it was my dream car. I enjoy driving, I always have. Lots of people hate driving long distance, I LOVE IT. And I will be taking this car on a road trip soon, Cali to Utah.
But what now? I've been searching the web and not really understanding shit about cars, as I do. However, I do know that I'd like to start with some quality of life things. I do know that I am open to replacing entire sections of the car. For instance, if there is anything I can do about the cupholders.... I have seen this brought up many times.
Maybe I'm crazy but I always feel like when I search for new parts I get a 1,000 yard stare I don't even know what I'm looking at. I know I want to either replace the seats for a better cover or I at least want to get seat covers but when I look I don't really know what I'm looking for or why or what's good for what price.
Lots of people talk about the first thing being the suspension. For me it'll probably be a paint job because I hate the white. I like cool colors like blue or green, dark. But for the suspension I have literally 0 idea what's good or not and I would want to do research before figuring that out, and kind of have but it's a very unstructured approach so I'd love help knowing where to start...
Convert me.

So, I need some help, or pointers, or opinion, or all three.
I started my YT channel awhile back and grew really well. I've since stopped making content on video games because it just doesn't bring me happiness anymore. But I don't want to just let the channel die.
I've been enjoying TCG recently, specially one piece tcg. And South Korea just released their version of it. And I've wanted to do some content around that. As well as vlog type stuff of me going to local tournaments, etc.
Should I just rebrand my existing channel into a TCG or start new?
I know I'm going to lose a lot of subscribers and views because it's not the niche that my original viewers were watching and I'm okay with that.
What do you think is the smarter and more efficient way of approaching this? Thank you in advance.

I have no one in my life I really feel I want to share this with at the moment but I am in awe of this whole awakening situation and need to talk about it
The whole full on bliss stage is over for me (only got two weeks lol but it’s all good), but what really stuck was this strong feeling of trusting the universe (I don’t like calling it god, that doesn’t feel good to me due to past religious issues).
I decided for me, what mattered at the present moment was approaching everything and everyone with the maximum loving kindness I could muster. And that truly hasn’t been me in the past at all. I’m not saying I haven’t slipped up from time to time but I’ve been doing pretty darn well.
And it’s amazing what work is occurring in my life. All of these loving people from my past are reappearing out of absolutely nowhere like literally moving states away to practically my backyard all in convergence. People I never thought I’d see again are suddenly wanting to see me and inviting me out when I was practically friendless for years and years; I thought they didn’t give a shit. People are coming to me with problems like I am somehow able to help and maybe I am but I feel like a complete newb lol like ignorant af I know nothing. People currently in my life are just showing me so much love. I even feel love from people on Reddit and such. And it’s so easy to love them back like unconditionally. I just want to make people feel loved, even the angry and suffering people, especially them. Who were like me. I love them all. That’s all that matters. It’s obvious we are all one
I’m overwhelmed, I am just crying a lot because I can’t believe something like this is happening to me, it’s so amazing. I know that one day some terribly tragic things could happen and there are actually some sad things going on with some loved ones but the feeling of love is so strong. And my life circumstances aren’t even really that different from what was going on during all the suffering.
I am so joyful that I get to experience awakening and all of this, that I get to be a person that somehow chose this path instead of staying unawake/asleep and staying so miserable. That I get to see the unfiltered reality for what it is, and experience true unconditional love the way it can really be experienced at its best. And that I get to choose to help other people wake up too, that I get to learn how to do that every day and dedicate my life to it if I want to and help others leave suffering behind, too. And especially so grateful to the people who had a hand in waking me up. So much gratitude and love to them every day. I am so fortunate and loved.
I don’t even know exactly HOW I chose it because I feel like it was kind of forced on me except I do know that I chose LOVE when it was really really really scary and hard and painful and against all my instincts. And this feels like a reward, like love really is the answer and there really is a being out there letting me know that morality exists and doing the right thing matters even if it’s just to make life more exciting and amusing and satisfying. And I can choose to do the right thing and be a good person every time and no one can stop me even if pain comes - I have the full knowledge and autonomy to do that forever, at least in this physical form, and I can help people every day if I want, or read interesting things, or just do whatever! Cry if I want, I guess! Nothing can fuck me up! I can figure it out no matter what. It’s all a learning opportunity and I get to be a student for life, just like I always wanted 🥲
I finally have something to be proud of myself for, I did a hard thing instead of just letting life happen to me. And it mattered. And my life is perfect the way it is and I don’t have to do anything different to have a purpose or achieve. It’s all good! Maybe I will never actually be able to tell anyone I know this but it is what it is. I’m free to be a loving and happy person and no one can ever stop me again!

Okay guys so awhile back in November I believe it was, I had the best win of my life almost an unbelievable win something that doesn’t usually happen. I just found out on here that some sites allow you to go back & get a replay of your wins which stake.us is one of them. Im really excited it’ll be cool to be able to rewatch the play again months later, I had no idea I could do this but anyways I really want to share as it was insane as hell i have the screen shots but those aren’t the same as the actual replay & this win was so insane that screen shots will most likely be hard to believe lmao😅 so I’m asking first off if anyone can explain to me how I do this & also am I allowed to post it on this subreddit? I know all the posts on here aren’t only chumba related but I only ask this bc I know stake.us has its own subreddit but I don’t really go on there & don’t really care to share there this subreddit has been my go to for everything & I will forever appreciate it & all of you guys who have been so awesome for so many reasons 🫶🏻

Disclaimer: I don't want unsolicited advice or anyone telling me what to do. I want to know if you relate or have been what I've been through.
I'm in 12 step recovery. Specifically AA. And I've been sober for almost 11 years. About a year and a half ago I found myself in what I didn't know at the time was a very emotionally abusive friendship with another alcoholic who had significantly less time than me. Pretend I'm not a bad guy and take my word for it. I felt gaslighted. When I confronted him about things he was doing that were bothering me, he ghosted me deliberately and blocked my number without warning me. I went crazy after the fact that that happened. And then after that we talked about a month later and he basically said he refuses to believe any narrative where I was victimized by him. And he proceeded to tell me I'm crazy and implied I was delusional because I had a different take on things he was doing that I accused him of. And I just couldn't believe what I was hearing. This dude and I were inseparable best buds in a bromance together and then one day he just decided to be extremely cold, and rather than just admit that he was wrong and sorry he hurt me, he really doubled down on the fact that he had "every right" to ghost me. And it got really out of hand. Bc I went missing and left AA bc I was so heartbroken and upset that someone I was so close to could so thoroughly violate my trust. And so everyone's looking for me and showing up at my house and I'm not there. They all think I either relapsed or killed myself. I didn't. And at one point, unbeknownst to me, a mutual friend of ours gets him to call me. He called and didn't leave a voicemail. I eventually start texting everyone letting them know I'm alright. And I call him and he doesn't answer or text me back for 48 hours so I was pissed bc I thought he was playing games. And so I blow up on him and lose control of my anger and I'm like I know where you live, where you go to meetings, play games with me fucker I dare you to. And the last text I ever got from him was extremely callous, basically trying to make me feel like a bad person for blowing off all my friends for a month, and he basically said he called me to tell me that and then he said bc I threatened him, he'd call the police if I ever contacted him again. And I'm just in absolute shock that the dude I was once sleeping at his house, hanging out with him nonstop, someone I took care of when he was sick. Someone I gave rides to meetings. He was like for a minute there my ride or die. And now he's being so fucking cold as to call the police on me. And ok... Normally I would be like valid, I threatened him. But I've called the cops on his neighbors once before back when we were friends bc they were assaulting one another and he called me a "snitch" and flipped out on me for getting the cops involved bc he was still on probation. So he's a goddamn hypocrite.
And ever since this bullshit happened, I think about it almost at any point where I have idle time in my day. I think about it CONSTANTLY. I want JUSTICE. I want to feel like this douchebag got a dose of karma for acting like the biggest asshole on the planet to me. I want him to lose custody of his child. I want him to relapse and go back to prison. I want him to suffer. And I know for a fact I'm not crazy the way he said I was because so many other ppl including his own mutual friends have heard my side of the story and have had my back saying I didn't deserve that. And not to mention, I've met several men since him that I've had very healthy relationships with and they treat me with respect. Like I have one best friend I can talk to on the phone for 6 hours. We're going to Europe together later this year. I'm going out to Vegas to see him. He's seen me at my very worst when all of this was going on. He tells me he loves me constantly. So I know based on the actions of other people that this guy was a total dirtbag to me.
And like I said, I'm angry, and I'm traumatized and I remember every finite detail as if it happened yesterday. And at times, I find my wheels are just spinning thinking crazy shit like oh I'm gonna go find that fucker and bash his windows in on his car. And I'm constantly thinking about how if there is a God, why haven't I found something out about him like oh he lost his job. Oh he quit school. Oh he did this or did that. But radio silence. And if anything he's outwardly doing "really well" according to some of my friends. And I'm over here just ready to do everything short of killing him. And all day long I think of either the day he reaches out to make amends to me, or the day we bump into each other somewhere and what I'm going to say, and it ranges from emotional to pissed off to violent to this to that. And I'm losing my mind. And I am fully aware of resentment being like drinking poison expecting the other person to die. NONE OF THOSE BULLSHIT SAYINGS HELP!!! I get temporary relief when I'm either hanging out with friends or I get relief when I'm doing something to help someone else out. But I just want serenity. And no. I don't want to forgive him. I don't want to in any way let him back into my life. I'm not interested in making amends for anything at all if there even was anything bc I'm not about to sit there and get manipulated again even if I'm being the better person by admitting where I was wrong.
And I haven't been to an Al Anon meeting in over a year. And I'm scared to go back. I automatically feel like I'm a porcupine ready to shoot my quills out at anyone who personally attacks me, bc the worst part about abusive people is they make us have to constantly defend ourselves and our actions when they don't have to do shit! And lately I've been very seriously thinking once my service position at this one meeting I chair at is up, I'm fucking dipping out of AA for good. I don't need these manipulative people anymore. I've gone through enough hell. I constantly see examples of shady fuckers like him "working the steps" and "calling their sponsosponsee" and all this horse shit, when like that best friend of mine who I'm going to Europe with, he hasn't been to a meeting in over a year and somehow he's the most understanding compassionate person I know but he's "dry" and all of them are "working a spiritual program of action"... Then where the f** is my amends?? And yes, I don't care if that makes me sound entitled. You're lying if you've never felt that way about someone else in your life... I'm just done. Lately I just am so exhausted that I just wanna work and never talk to anyone ever again except for like maybe 3 people. Everyone else can go suck it. Especially him.

Hi everyone,
I made a smarthome app which functions as a Controlpanel for my homes lights.
It constantly Shows the same view of some light Switches, so that i can use it as a light switch without it feeling unnecessary Hard to turn on the lights by unlocking it first etc.
However two of the tablets i use have an oled screen and i want to prevent burn ins.
Do you guys have any Tips What i could implement into the app to prevent Burn ins? Or can give me a hint of what is more effective of the ideas i wrote Down below?
Here ist what i already did: -dim the screen after 10seconds idling -every 10mins a transparent shimmer moves across the screen
Here Are ideas i have : -make a screensaver animation where colourful (non transparent) dots constantly move across the screen -at night the screen Sets itself to full brightness and flashes a (non transparent) view above the screen for a few Minutes, which alternates between Red, Green and Blue colours -turn the screen brightness Down to 0f after 10 seconds instead of dimming it -leave a small black gap at one side and shift the entire view to the side one Pixel at a time and back. So that it constantly changes the Pixel colours (Bigger Buttons will still have the same colour even after moving 5pixels or more)
What of These would be most effective (and least annoying)? How often would i need to Do These?
Thanks in advance!

I (20F) met a guy (21M) on Omegle last year. Initially, he talked a lot about his ex-girlfriend and how much he missed her, which confused me because he also mentioned having a crush on a girl from his college, but I didn't think much about it. We added each other on Instagram, and he'd randomly flirt with me. I wasn't interested, so I'd brush him off, but he'd send me blurry selfies and call me when he was drinking with friends.
One day, he asked if I'd date him or if he was my type. I said I didn't see him that way, but maybe if he were in my city, I might consider going out with him. He still continued to talk a lot about his ex, and I just let him rant, seeing him as just a friend.
Later, his behavior changed. He started texting me all day, saving my snaps, and updating me about his mundane activities. He even said he was studying hard to get a job in my city so we could meet. I laughed it off, thinking he was joking.
One night, while drunk, he told me he had feelings for me. I dismissed it, thinking he was just drunk. But a few days later, he confessed again, saying he couldn't stop thinking about me. I told him I didn't feel the same way and that he might still be confusing his feelings because of his ex. He insisted he was over her since we started talking, which wasn't very convincing as he used to talk about her any chance he'd get.
Since then, he'd get mad if I posted stories with my guy friends or don't reply to him on time and left him on seen if I'm in class. I felt guilty and explained things to him just because I didn't feel the same way, and I did not want to hurt him, but it became exhausting. He even asked if I might change my mind in the future. I told him I wasn't sure and suggested we take a break from talking, but he refused, saying he couldn't go a day without speaking to me.
He accused me of giving him false hope and flirting back when I was just being nice. I felt guilty for unintentionally hurting him, but I knew I'd never seen him as more than a friend. I even wonder if he actually has feelings for me or is just settling for what's convenient because he knows he can't get his ex back.
When a guy tells me everything he did with his ex, it's practically impossible for me to develop feelings for him. I'm worried about how to handle this when I start liking someone else and he's adamant about staying in touch and was planning to come meet me even after we had this conversation. I still think he believes that one day I'll change my mind and I'm sure he is wasting his time waiting for me
How do I deal with this?
TL;DR: Met a guy on Omegle who initially talked about his ex a lot. We became friends, but now he has feelings for me. I don't feel the same, but he insists on staying in touch and gets upset if I interact with other guys. Not sure how to handle this situation.

As the title says, Im gonna need a good and reliable laptop for light video editing and regular browsing/movies/youtube. I heard that EliteBooks are actually a business class laptops that are high quality machines... So is this a good deal for $570? This one is specced with i5-1345U, 16GB DDR5 and 256GB NVMe, Windows 11 PRO edition. And what are your experiences with the latest EliteBooks :)

As a male with long hair and feminine facial features, receiving creepy looks from guys is actually one of the least unsettling experiences I've encountered and I've had these experiences in almost every environment I've been in. It doesn't affect me mentally or anything but it always makes me think how much worse girls must have it. Y'all stay strong 🙏

Indoors potted plants, added worm castings and some more potting soil. Same soil I'd used previously but had been sitting in garage for months. The worm castings were new though.
Next thing I know I'm finding dried up worms on my floor near some of the plants. Seems to happen every time I water a big plant that sits on the floor but 3 smaller plants sit on a table right next to it. Never find worms on the table. None of the other 13 plants that also got castings ever have worms near them.
The worms are black with sort of grey undersides. When they stretch out they are up to 3", sometimes smaller. They do that flipping/spazzing out thing if you find one alive and touch it. However I've had big fat worms outside do the same thing occasionally.
I'm assuming the castings had some worm eggs and now they're living in my plant. It's annoying and they leave trails on the wood floor.
I can't seem the ID the type of worms to find out if they're bad for my plants but the algaonema I think they're coming from just had 5 flowers on it so I guess they're not hurting it...ugh.
Not sure how to post a photo of video.

I think I recall an interview of him after a big game (it wouldn't be his Championship game because they cut away to golf within mere seconds of the final horn) and he wasn't able to really express himself......it was like he had a very bad stutter or something. I've looked for that video, to no avail. But I also (I think) recall the story being that Bill was embarrassed by that, so he worked hard and did what he had to do to become an articulate speaker. Also, the joke was, around that time, that Mr. Walton couldn't speak, so he taught himself, and now you can't get him to shut up.
Does anyone else remember any of that? He seems like the kind of guy who could apply himself and accomplish lots of things.
