Dog grooming games online

I’m new too all this server stuff but I am good with tech so I was looking for some help for creating a cross plat form Minecraft server physically rather than finding a host. I need to find one which has a reasonable amount of storage and doesn’t pose a fire risk if left unintended. Plus dose not require too much electricity.
I use Microsoft windows on my (pre built) PC but I would be happy to learn new Operating Systems. As well as I will need too learn how to build and use a server.
I live in the UK and have a budget of about £200 (cheap than £200 pounds is better) what sort of things would you guys suggest for me to get. And I hope this isn’t to complex of a request.

went online with the first time in a long time, i was a level 50 player back in the day and could hold my own against most,
tonight however trying to introduce my friend to it was fucking horrible,
enemy in our spawn in literally 2 seconds spawn camping every game BR did fuck all even shooting at an AFK player it took 5 bursts to the head to kill then an enemy can kill me in 2 like tf ?
snipers from across the map every spawn or move you do im guessing its now full of cheaters ?

Hey there! I am a 30 year old guy from Upstate New York looking for someone that wants to make an emotional connection.
A bit about me: I'm 6’1". I get height can be a big deal for some women so I think it's best to just put it out there first 😅 I've got black hair, brownish black eyes. Average body, I'm muscular and wanting to start exercising both for health and a little bit for better shape. I like to think I'm fairly attractive but then most of us grew up with a relative always telling us we were not handsome or cute, etc. we can share pictures once we establish some comfort zone. If education is important, I am a college graduate with post-graduation degree as well. Now working as Mechanical engineer.
I have to lead with the fact that I can be pretty sarcastic at times. I also joke and (playfully) tease. I'm pretty easy going/chill and I like to keep things light and fun, but also enjoy getting into the really deep conversations as well. I'm a sucker for the whole good morning and goodnight text thing as well as checking in on those busier days. That doesn’t mean we have to just message good morning and good night for the whole week. Haha. I think most important part of knowing someone via online platform is initial conversations and if you don’t have enough time let me know otherwise that conversation is dead in no time.
I love animals. I've always felt very connected and attached to them and just enjoy interacting with them. While I am more of a dog person pet-wise, cats are still pretty cool in my book. Cats are more complex though I love the mysterious nature.
Anything outdoors is great in my opinion. Just feel like going for a walk? Let's do it. I do kayaking a bit in the summers, fish, hike, go for drives. I have the habit of occasionally stopping and taking pictures of plants and flowers I see around (I'm always down to share!). While sending me message write code - “I4U” so that I know it’s someone who actually read my post. Didn’t write in the end cuz some people might just skip to end. This doesn’t mean that you just send me the code. I am strictly gonna monitor now. I have skimmed through soo many texts and my innocent heart always gives chances, I am gonna try to be little strict this time.
It's not just the outdoors I love. I can also get down with chill days at home binging something on Netflix or playing something on my PC. Let's face it, I'm a bit if a nerd (everyone has something nerd about themselves) and if you like Jurassic park, board games, Any Mafia movies, gaming, etc we will get along great. I'm a sucker for horror movies as well and am always looking for recommendations. I listen to a lot of music. I shouldn’t brag but I listen to english ,german, Spanish, french and Hindi songs. Born and brought up in India. Hence, hindi songs.
A bit about (possibly) you: I'd prefer if you were in some sort of professional environment and ambitious. I'm not extremely picky about things like hair and eye color. Height is also not a big deal. If you're alot smaller than me and worried that it's something you’ll be insecure about, it's not. The big thing for me is personality. I think personality can make us a lot more or a lot less attractive. I want someone that is genuinely kind and sweet, someone that likes to laugh, someone that's not afraid to be goofy.
A final note: I'm a single guy and looking for someone dynamic. Sometimes I can respond immediately and sometimes it takes a minute due to the obvious circumstances. I also don't expect you to respond immediately to every message, I get that we all have lives and can be busy at times. It would be awesome if you are up for a voice chat. And please when responding write something about yourself.

Method- Discord for Voice and Roll20
Time- 9pm CST
Tomorrow we’re running a recurring one shot based off the popular Hunger Games! The premise is simple. Characters enter. Characters battle until one is left standing. Melodrama in the style of WWE is heavily encouraged! Looking for up to four more!
Builds are all level 5, point buy, with starting equipment. The only books allowed are the core rule books plus Tasha’s and Xanathars. DM me if interested!
Will mark close and edit when full!

I'm looking for a partner for a long-term romantic relationship. More than that, I'm looking for someone to be on a team with me as we work together on becoming our best selves. Someone with a common interest (could be any of a variety of things) that we work to become very talented at together.
I work in tech, and hope eventually to get into security research. I've played piano for over 24 years now (time flies), and play a bit of guitar also. I like cooking and baking. I also like spending time outside and working out.
I'm looking for someone to share some part of my world, and enjoy growing together. Alternatively, share some of your interests that maybe you think we could grow in together.
I'm looking for someone kind and gentle. The world is both a wonderful and terrible place, and I'd like to meet someone who is interested in making it better in some small way.
If you love music, that's wonderful. I would love to jam with you, I would love someone to have impromptu sing-alongside in the car and the shower with. If you play piano, we should play a duet.
Let's work out together? I lift weights most days during the week. Maybe we can go mountain biking and skiing together.
Other important things:
I have made a conscious decision not to drink. One of my family members has kidney disease, and may require dialysis within the next few years. I believe I will live my best life by not drinking. It would be very cool (although rare) to meet someone who also has made a conscious decision not to drink, or would at least be open to considering it. I also don't smoke or do drugs.
Center left politically, horrible dog allergies.
US only please. I'd like to be with you in person as soon as possible. Not looking for an online thing.
Let's chat.

I last played online poker semi seriously in early 2010s.
I've recently picked the game back up as a hobby and have been a decent winner on a PokerStars location specific North American site at 50NL and 100NL based almost exclusively on knowledge I obtained 10+ years ago. (Sample isn't huge so I might not really be a winner in the long run)
What's the best way to catch up an improvement so I can start beating 200NL?
Do I need to go head first into learning how to use a solver? Are run it once and Upswing lab considered currently valuable training material? Are there any good books I can start with (yes I'm old and like books)
TIA

Tl;dr: I hold the game is good, not perfect and the answer to the balance complaints all over are mostly solved by playing the team based online game as a team.
sifting and scrolling in this media, I’ve encountered very high counts of commentaries on how the game is “impossible” or the weapons are all “pea shooters” (hyperbolizing a bit, of course… but am I really?). All this has led me to think I am playing a whole different game.
From day one I recognized that the devs have done a very good job in placing this view on their product: a very challenging game with an emphasis on teamplay, favouring cohesion from the squad level to the coommunity macro-vew. And I think most of us can recognized that (not for nothing we’ve managed to kill 2bill enemies and liberated/defended planets against all odds).
My games are more or less like so: 4 out of 10 are PTSD-inducing mayhem where I just want to roll in a ball and cry. These are the ones where no matter what you do you know you wont get out. The other 3 out of 10 are challenging as hell, and maybe you make it out but no 100% completion here. The last 3 are good ganes where the helldiver god in you brings the heretics to their knees. And in none of those games have I not have fun with my buddies.
I believe this reasons to be a major influence on the enjoyment of the game to its core, that means regardless of updates:

1. Player count. 4 is the way this is intended to be played. Less than that the brag meter is on and the focus of the game shifts.
2. Loadout. Figures. I believe all weapons are good and serve a purpose. Will all of the guns 1-shot everything? Nope, but that’s a good thing. I dont think they’re supposed to.
3. Comms!! Of all the games I’ve played without my buddies on discord, only 1. I say again: only 1 I joined a party with their mics on. The feature is there, and it is a major improvement on a team based online game.

I believe that if these points are met, there really isnt much we can complain about to an otherwise well made game.
Now, well made does not mean perfect. The game has a lot of improvement points and the weapons, which I still sustain are all good, need a bit of a push for being more viable. And I woukd do it in a bit diferent way, like all enemies having 3 armor spots suitabke for low, mid and high armor pen. Amonst a bunch of other things.
I dont expect this to resonate, but at least is out there.

Goal: Create a heartfelt animated music video Song: TheFatRat - Still Here With You Tone: Happy, Sad, Sweet, Touching, Moving, Inspiring, Beautiful, Spiritual Style: 2D cute cartoon/anime Length: About two and a half minutes to fit the song (more is fine, adding a short intro/outro to fit the story is welcome) Deadline: 2 Months (flexible) Budget: $3,000 (flexible)
​
Sorry if the deadline/budget seems unreasonable. I am very flexible on both and am more than willing to work with someone on a fair price.
​
I would like to have a music video created for my fiancée, Emily, starring her and one of our cats, Fawkes, who we helped cross the rainbow bridge in February 2023. We always get the feeling he's still here with us, watching over us, spreading his love and joy. I want to imagine what that would look like if it were indeed true. On a spiritual level, they were/are truly soulmates, and I want to create something really special for her to remember him by. These last few years have been really tough for her, and we have been abandoned/betrayed by some friends and family mainly due to drama around our caring for Fawkes.
​
I am looking for someone passionate who truly wants to help me make this a reality. I will do everything in my power to get whatever you need to make this work. This is probably way too much info, but I'm trying to get my thoughts out if it can help the creative process for anyone. If you're interested, please send me a message.
​
Factoids:

• Me: 33M
• Emily: 34F
• Emily and Fawkes slept on the couch together during his sickness (he would always lay on her, face to face)
• Emily likes to paint as a hobby (shapes, flowers, birds, owls)
• Emily likes to play PC games (Overwatch, World of Warcraft)
• Emily is usually up at night while I'm asleep
• Emily has been free of work since before he got sick
• I work during the day, Emily is at home alone (she does not drive)
• We still randomly find his fur on our clothes that have been washed multiple times since he passed. It makes us smile and think of it as a gift from him.
• Fawkes and Freyja didn't get along unsupervised, so we kept them separated when we slept or had to go somewhere
• Freyja sometimes acts like Fawkes did (belly rubs and lots of snuggles). We feel as though it's Fawkes visiting us through her.

​
Thoughts, ideas, notes:

• Possibly starting from when we are at/leaving the vet when we said goodbye
• Fawkes depicted as an angel/spirit cat
• Centered around Fawkes and Emily
• Emily doing day-to-day things like watching TV, painting, playing games, chores
• Emily looking at pictures and feeling sad
• Emily feeling hopeless and alone
• Freyja and I can be part of making her feel better sometimes
• I go to work and she's all alone
• Fawkes finding ways to cheer up/help Emily, somehow interacting with things around her
• I want it to express feelings of sadness at points but also happiness and joy
• Locations closely based on actual places we went/live (I can provide pictures of where we live or addresses of locations for Google Maps for satellite views)
• Ending: I would like to show Fawkes with her family dog (who passed away in September 2021) and her grandmother (who passed away in January 2024), all happy together and watching over Emily

​
backstory below
​
Beginning:
Fawkes came into our lives in July 2017 from the streets after his previous owners were taken away from him a few weeks prior. We immediately brought him to the vet to get checked and tested for anything. The vet found that he was chipped and five years old. As a result, they couldn't really do much besides try to contact the previous owners. We took him home and kept him separated from our other cat, Freyja, since we did not know if he could spread anything to her. He was pretty lethargic, hardly eating, and couldn't really keep much down. We honestly thought we would wake up the next morning and he wouldn't be with us anymore. Luckily, that was not the case.
​
He wasn't doing so well the next day, so we called the vet and they had us come in again. Since the previous day, he went from over seven pounds down to about six and a half pounds. Our vet decided it was necessary to medically intervene or he was likely going to die. They hospitalized him on the spot and started giving him subcutaneous (SQ) fluids and other medications to help with his nausea and stimulate his appetite. We left him under the care of the vet and all we could do was wait to hear back. He pulled through like a champ. He was eating, moving, jumping, playing, snuggling, and loving life. It was as if he was reborn, like a phoenix from the ashes, so we named him "Fawkes" after the phoenix from Harry Potter.
​
Over the following years, Fawkes and Emily became pretty much inseparable. He was such a lovebug and radiated that classic "orange cat energy" wherever he went. If he wanted to get into something, he'd either find a way or keep trying until we could stop him. He absolutely LOVED belly rubs, and not once was it ever a trap (unless you felt "trapped" rubbing his belly for hours). In all the time we had him, he never hissed at, scratched, or bit (non-playfully) anyone. He just wanted to love everything and everyone he met. He didn't have any enemies in his eyes, just others who may not have cared for the level of love and joy he wanted to share.
​
Later:
Fawkes was diagnosed with stage 1 chronic kidney disease (CKD) in October 2021, which quickly progressed to stage 3 by early 2022. We were giving him medicine a few times a day, SQ fluids every couple of days, and going to the vet every other week to have his levels checked. He became a regular at the vet and even a few employees confessed to taking breaks just to go snuggle him because they loved him so much. We almost said goodbye to him in May 2022, as his symptoms were worsening and he no longer wanted to eat. He was a fighter, though, and told us he wasn't done fighting yet by finally eating on his own just as we were trying to make that difficult decision. We took him to the Animal Emergency and Referral Center (AERC) that night.
​
The vet told us that he had developed anemia and our only options were either to take him home and start end-of-life care or do a blood transfusion (which might not even work) and keep him hospitalized for a few days to be monitored. We opted for the blood transfusion. The procedure went well and we were able to come and visit him a day later, though they still had to keep him for another day or two just to be safe. We were also able to have his case looked at by a specialist, and they adjusted his meds to better suit his needs. They were estimating he maybe had a few weeks to a month or so before we ended up back where we were before the transfusion. We were now giving him less medicine a few times a day, SQ fluids every night, and going on walks through our apartment building every night before bed.
​
A few weeks became a few months, and he seemed to be doing even better than he was all of 2022 before his transfusion. We would take him on trips to Petco every week or so, so he could walk around and meet new friends. We would bring him to the park while we played Pokémon GO, even if we ended up just sitting in the car. Starting around September 2022, my boss even let me bring him to work with me on days he wanted me in the office. Vet appointments were few and far between, sometimes a couple of months apart. This pretty much continued all the way into February 2023 until we started to notice more significant symptoms again, and his CKD values were getting much worse. He didn't want to eat, he was hiding more, and he would often seek comfort by laying in his litterbox. We could tell our little warrior was ready to be done fighting.
​
Goodbye:
On the night of Tuesday, February 14th, 2023, Valentine's Day, we decided we couldn't make him fight for us any longer. We called our vet and made an appointment for Thursday, February 16th, 2023. We spent the whole day together on Wednesday, February 15th, 2023, snuggling on the couch and finished with our nightly routine of SQ fluids and a walk. We all spent the night together on the couch, staying awake as long as we could. On Thursday, February 16th, 2023, we brought Fawkes to the vet, and he was excited to walk around and explore the new space for a short while before needing a rest. It was nice to see him perk up and act like how we remembered him to be. The doctors took him away to be prepped and brought him back after a short while. We were petting him, kissing him, and told him he was a good boy and how much we loved him as he peacefully passed. We left there with the heaviest pet carrier ever. An empty one.

Hey, my names Shawn, I’m 20 and I’m from maine. I haven’t had a super great night and just feeling kinda down and disappointed right now. I like games, art, music, being outside and being with my dogs. I’d really appreciate anyone to talk to about anything. Thanks :)

I have read online that there is hardware emulation and software emulation.
I never had gotten either the NES Classic Edition or the SNES Classic Edition, which are both dedicated home video game consoles, and they can’t have added games to them.
Delta in the other hand, can be filled with more and more games, and it’s not a “static” library like the NES or the SNES Classic Editions are.
What are the differences between Delta and these 2 Classic Edition consoles? (Both Classic Edition Consoles each emulated their respective representative original console).
(Is there any website or any way to get skins for NES on my Delta app? I need skins that have the “fast forward, save state, load state, and etc.” functionalities.)

GP Surgeries are facing major challenges due to limited resources, but they're truly doing their best to provide quality care. The online form system for booking appointments is a real game-changer, allowing patients to receive appropriate attention based on their medical needs. It's a much smoother process compared to the chaotic early morning phone calls. And let's not forget about the valuable support pharmacists can offer; they're trained to provide advice on medications and minor illnesses, yet patients tend to overlook this resource and head straight to the GP. There's also 111 and A&E at disposition should patients need a more prompt response or urgent attention to their needs.
I just want to know what patients think GP surgeries can do that they haven't done already to help cope with the demand? They suffered from several funding cuts and GPs themselves are ending up cutting their hours as they are being overworked beyond their abilities
