The torus or n-dimensional hypertorus is the shape of... well, everything. Ancient spiritual diagrams like the qabalistic Tree of Life or geometric patterns like the Flower of Life have attempted to decode this "sacred geometry" and its significance. This subreddit is a place for rigorous discussion and investigation of the relationships between numerals, qabala, vortex math, and toruses—and subjectivity, consciousness, and sorcery.

Here’s how you can effortlessly transition your home decor through the seasons, incorporating key elements like a black and white carpet and pendant lights for a stylish touch.
Spring: Embrace Fresh and Floral
1. Lighten Up with Fabrics
1. Switch to a Black and White Carpet

Spring: Embrace Fresh and Floral
1. Lighten Up with Fabrics
- Swap out heavy winter fabrics for lighter materials like cotton and linen. Introduce pastel shades and floral patterns through throw pillows, curtains, and bedding to capture the essence of spring.
- Fresh flowers and potted plants bring life and color into your home. Arrange bouquets of tulips, daffodils, or peonies in vases throughout your living space.
- Pendant lights can be a focal point in any room. Choose designs with a light, airy feel to complement the spring decor. Consider fixtures with floral motifs or in soft, pastel colors.
1. Switch to a Black and White Carpet
- A black and white carpet can provide a chic, sophisticated look that remains versatile through all seasons. In summer, it offers a striking contrast to bright summer hues and adds a cool, contemporary touch to your home decor.
- Embrace vibrant colors like turquoise, coral, and sunny yellow. Add these through cushions, wall art, and decorative accessories.
- Keep window treatments minimal to let in as much natural light as possible. Sheer curtains or light blinds are perfect for this season.
1. Introduce Warm Textiles
- As the weather cools, bring out cozy throws, plush cushions, and heavier curtains in warm, earthy tones like burnt orange, deep red, and mustard yellow.
- Incorporate autumnal elements such as pinecones, acorns, and dried leaves into your home decor. These can be displayed in decorative bowls or used in centerpieces.
- Swap out light, summery pendant lights for those with a warmer glow. Pendant lights with a bronze or gold finish can add a touch of autumnal warmth to your living space.
1. Layer Up with Soft Textures
- Use thick, plush throws and textured cushions to create a cozy atmosphere. Faux fur and wool are excellent choices for adding warmth.
- The versatility of a black and white carpet continues to shine in winter. It provides a neutral base that complements the rich, deep colors often associated with winter decor.
- Pendant lights with a warm glow can make a significant difference during the darker winter months. Choose fixtures that offer a cozy ambiance, and consider using dimmable bulbs to adjust the light levels as needed.
1. Rotate Accessories
- Keep a collection of seasonal accessories that you can rotate throughout the year. This includes things like vases, candles, and decorative bowls.
- Your home’s entryway sets the tone for the rest of the space. Update it with seasonal wreaths, doormats, and decorations to welcome each new season.
- Candles, essential oils, and diffusers can fill your home with seasonal scents. Think fresh florals for spring, citrus for summer, spiced apple and cinnamon for autumn, and pine or vanilla for winter.
2024.05.21 14:00 AngleConstant4323 For the anxious one
I have devised this thread as some guidance for those people who have visited this forum and are concerned about specific symptoms that are effecting them and, in particular, those who are worried that these symptoms are an indication of neurological conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) & Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
The first thing that must be realised is that NOBODY on an internet forum can ever diagnose you or truly give you any reassurance that you do not have these conditions. Should anybody experience any signs or symptoms that are new to them they should ALWAYS approach their doctor in the first instance in order for these to be examined. In the vast majority of cases a GP will be able to advise you that these symptoms are benign but some doctors will often refer you to a neurologist for their opinion, if this should happen it is not value laden as regarding a possible diagnosis but rather would be the standard format for how you present to the doctor.
This thread is good news, it is good news because it has had to be written, it is good news because hundreds, maybe thousands of people have logged onto this board and countless other anxiety forums totally convinced that they are suffering from a neurological condition despite being told by health care profesionals that this is not the case. All these people ask the same questions and all these people have the exact same worries as you are having now. If this is you, if you have been to the doctor, maybe even a neuro, maybe even two neuro’s, maybe even had an MRI, maybe even two MRI’s, well, you get the picture, if you have been told by your health care profesional that you are healthy but you are struggling to believe this you may find some help from this thread.
So, you have come to an anxiety board. I guess that is because your doctor has told you that you are suffering from anxiety. Actually, my guess would be that your doctor has told you that you are suffering from ‘just’ anxiety and, if you are lucky, you may have been given some leaflets, you may have had some books recommended and you may even have been given some medication.
So, what took you to the doctor? Was it the tingling? The pins & needles? That damned annoying twitching eyelid that just won’t let up? Was it that weird thing when you keep seeing the flashing in your periphiral vision? The strange sensation in your throat where you just can’t swallow? The constant muscle aches and cramps? The constant small joint aches and cramps? Do you have that weird internal vibrating feeling? Was it the percieved weakness in all your major limbs? What about the foot drop you have been noticing, the clumsiness, finding the car keys in the fridge? Was it the chronic constant fatigue, that feeling when you wake in the morning like you haven’t actually gone to bed? What about the myclonic jerking, that bizarre moment when your whole body jerks like you have had an electric shock? Was it that constant twitching in your calf muscles that looks like you have a bag of worms under your skin? It could have been the parathesia, the feeling on your skin where one moment it feels sunburnt and the next minute it feels soaking wet? Maybe it was the atrophy, you know, the muscle loss in your bicep, your thigh that is so obvious to you but what frustratingly nobody else can see? What about………are you bored? I’m bored!
So, you have had some of those right? Maybe like me you are unlucky enough to have had every one of them…not much fun is it! When you first started getting these weird and wonderful symptoms cropping up I bet one of the first things you did was run off to the all powerful internet and consult that all knowing oracle, the good lord GOOGLE. If you did this, if you searched for your symptoms on a search engine on the internet, congratualtions, you have taken the first step on developing this weird and wonderful anxiety disorder known as Health Anxiety. The reason we Google is because of a basic human need at a time of stress, we are scared and we want reassurance, the problem is nothing you ever read on the internet will give you the reassurance you need, you will unwittingly discard the plethora of evidence that tells you that you do not have a neurological illness and instead will latch onto and inflate those things which seem ambigous, why would you do this? I suggest that at this point it may be adavantagous for you to look in the Genaralized Anxiety Disorder folder on this forum and see the negative thought processes and over generalization and catastrophising that defines GAD, it just may ring some bells for you.
So, by the time you have gone to the doctor you are pretty much resigned to the fact that it is MS or if you are really unlucky ALS. You picture yourself in a wheelchair, the kids looking at you with pity as you can’t play sports in the park with them anymore, you picture your partner standing by you and caring for you but all the while you feel the resentment, they never signed up for this, you picture the scene in four years time, confined to a hospital bed with your family and friends round you with the fruit and flowers…..BUT WAIT!
Oh joyous news, the doctor has said you don’t have MS, you don’t have ALS, what you have is anxiety, well, just anxiety….oh believe me there is a BIG difference. You have got out of jail free! The doctor has examind you thoroughly, he has taken your history, he knows the patterns, he has seen people with MS and ALS and you are not one of those. With a skip and a step you are on your way, same time next year doctor, yep, no worries…so with a happy heart and an increased vigour you are off out of the surgery door to continue with your life that had been on hold up to then. MS, ALS how could you be so silly eh?
…and then it begins! Right, the doctor said this is anxiety, I’m not anxious though, why do I still have these symptoms if I’m not anxious….something just isn’t right here. The more you think about it the more it seems obvious, hold on, I saw the doctor on Friday afternoon, I bet he was just thinking about the weekend and wanted to get rid of me. I’m sure that the doctor should have done more tests than he did you know, crikey, I’m sure when I told him the numbness was down just the one side he didn’t listen to that, that bit is crucial and he never heard it. Hold on, this freakin eye twitch is getting even worse and I’m not even anxious, where is the telephone? What is that doctors number?……welcome to the loop!
If any of the above seems familier to you, believe me, you are not alone…as strange as it may seem the fixation on being convinced you have a neurological condition after being told that you are in actual fact suffering from anxiety in very common.
Firstly, you need to realise that both MS and ALS are rare disease’s. Not only are they both rare disease’s but they also tend to effect spefic groups based on ethnicity, age and sex so we are talking about rare disease with partial excluding factors. In contrast, anxiety is an incredibly common and debilitating condtion that effects people both physically and mentally.
Anxiety is generally percieved to be a mental condition, when we are anxious we are anxious in our head and this can kick in the flight or fight syndrome which in turn causes the physical reactions. These reactions are generally thought to be a racing heart and palpitations, sweating, increased adrenaline etc etc. Now, this is all well and good but how does this fit in with those symptoms that mirror MS etc so effectivly.
I personally believe that the reason most people fail to be believe that their symptoms are being genrated by anxiety is because the concept of anxiety is never actually expalined sufficently. A large number of doctors will often expalin to you that you are suffering from ‘just’ anxety and this usage of the term ‘just’ is supposed to make us somehow feel reassured. The problem is that this has the opposite effect, how can a ‘just’ something cause all these real physical symptoms. If anxiety is effecting me mentally how can it make me twitch, buzz and go numb?
For some people anxiety will surface in the tradional panic attack, much seems to be written on this side of anxiety and this is not what we are concerned with here. For a sizable group of people when anxiety starts to manifest itself physically it is through physical sesnations that effect various aspects of our nervous system. This is why the sensations of this physical anxiety so closely mirror the symptoms of a condition such as MS, they actually effect the same part of the body, now, here is the crucial and all important difference, the symptoms of MS are caused by an organic condition which whilst treatable is irreversable and the physical sensations of anxiety are caused by the mind and are of course reversable. In short, you have to understand and accept that the mind can actually generate these physical sensations.
Whilst for many people physical anxiety can strike out of the blue, I am of the opinion that for the vast majority of people anxiety starts to become physical after whay could be many years of bad stress and anxiety management. You may not have even noticed this. We all have an anxiety threshold and the majority of people will probably never approach the blow off point, yes, a sudden and severe stressor could take someone right over the point from the baseline (think Post Traumatic Stress Disorder & Conversion Disorder etc) but most of us operate at an anxiety level that our bodies can handle. The problem is that if we stress ourselves constantly over a period of time, we do not allow our thermostat to reset and one sunny day something will happen, some stressor which can be a bad or even a good event and which we may not even realise the significance of will push us over the limit and it is at this point that our anxiety will effect us physically and more often than not impact on our nervous system.
This also happens to bring us to another crucial factor and what for many is the paradox that holds us back form accepting the anxiety diagniosis, how the hell can this be anxiety when I am not anxious? It makes no sense to me! What we need to realise is that once we have crossed the anxiety threshold no matter what we do we have to surrender ourselves to our mind and body and accept that we are now operating to a timescale that WE CANNOT CONTROL! We can think we are being as cool as Fonzie but we need to accept that the damage whilst reversible has been done and it is just a case of closing the stable door after the horse has bolted. Our body is now in control of us and the physical sensations will only stop when our body and mind are sufficently recovered.
It is at this point where we commit the ultimate folly, do we do as the experts suggest and sit back and realx and float through this stage? Of course not, we do the total opposite, we monitor our body for every twitch and interpret this as a sign of a misdiagnosis, we become hypervigilant, paranoid, self absorbed…this behaviour just creates more and more anxiety and we do not allow our body and mind the time necessary to recover….we are, in effect, pouring gasoline on the fire and expecting it to go out.
If you read this forum you will find a variety of posts that will offer you suggestions as to why you are suffering from the physical sensations of anxiety. Some people will advocate medication, some Cognitive Behaviour Therapy etc etc but what you will realise is that there is no one right way. I am truly of the belief that recovery is all about acceptance and learning to respond to fear correctly but how we do this is very much an indvidual thing. It could well be that you have issues with GAD and you can see how patterns realting to that disorder resonate with how you currently feel about your health, for example, note how both MS and ALS are diseases with which we lose control of our bodies. It could also be that you have issues with OCD, traits such as reassurance seeking and body and symptom monitoring could suggest this. There may well be suggestions that you could be sufferring from elements of depression, there is as school of thought that believes that the mind will somatise physical sensations when there are aspects of your life that your unconcious is unhappy with etc.
I hope this has helped if you have just visited here convinced you have MS etc and you are feeling scared and confused. You may have noticed I have not mentioned anything specific about MS or ALS and that is because there is no reason to...you do not have those. Your doctor has told you you are suffering from anxiety and therefore you are in the right place. Refrain from researching about diseases you do not have and instead concentrate on dealing with what you have today. Of course, what you have today doesn’t guarantee you won’t have MS or ALS tomorrow and if that thought fills you with fear use your time here wisely and believe me, it becomes a lot more bearable.

Cotton swabs: For cleaning any mistakes. https://preview.redd.it/86ssqyrmfr1d1.jpg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2959131f738d8c29f409793310ea3e3bb5e7a575 2.

Here are a few easy patterns to try: Dots and Lines: Begin with small dots and lines to create flowers, leaves, and vines. This basic technique is the foundation of more complex designs. Paisleys: These teardrop-shaped patterns are classic and elegant. Start with a small paisley and gradually add details around it. Mandala: Draw a circle and fill it with intricate details like petals and swirls. Mandalas look complex but are made up of repetitive patterns that are easy to master. 4. Practice Makes Perfect Don’t be discouraged if your first few attempts aren’t perfect. Practice on paper or your palm to get a feel for the mehandi's cone and improve your control over it. 5. Aftercare for Best Results Once your design is complete, let the mehandi dry for at least 30 minutes. Dab it with a lemon and sugar mixture to keep it moist and ensure a darker stain. Leave the paste on for several hours, or overnight if possible, before gently scraping it off. Avoid water for the first 24 hours to allow the stain to deepen. 6. Finding Inspiration Near You Look for local mehandi artists home service near me or workshops in your area. These can be great sources of inspiration and provide opportunities to learn new techniques. Social media platforms like Instagram and Pinterest are also treasure troves of mehendi design ideas.

- The Lost Art of Compassion: Discovering the Practice of Happiness in the Meeting of Buddhism and Psychology by Lorne Ladner: Dr Lorne Ladner rescues compassion from this marginalised view, showing how its practical application in our life can be a powerful force in achieving happiness. Combining the wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism and Western psychology, Ladner presents clear, effective practices for cultivating compassion in daily living.
- Choosing Happiness: Keys to a Joyful Life by Alexandra Stodda: Happiness lies in the passions we pursue and in the pressures we decline. It is in knowing how to work and when to play. It is in the treasured objects we keep nearby and in the ordinary moments we elevate into small celebrations. It is in the note we write to a friend and the kindness we show a stranger. It is in the colors we love and the music that transports us. It may be as simple as sunlight on your face; as sudden as a shared smile; as sensuous as a single flower on your desk, candles on your nightstand, or cookies hot from the oven. Happiness is what you make it, where you make it. Happiness is our best choice.
- Health, Wealth and Happiness: You Can Control Your Destiny by David Singh: David Singh's dramatic journey from the jungles of Guyana to the helm of one of Canada's largest financial planning companies provides the backdrop for this guide to lasting happiness. Advocating wise investments, careful planning, and healthy eating choices, this inspirational book uncovers the secrets to a happier and more successful life.
- What All the World's A-Seeking: Or, The Vital Law of True Life, True Greatness Power and Happiness by Ralph Waldo Trine: Ralph Waldo Trine was an influential member of the New Thought movement. He was one of the first people to write about the Law of Attraction. Long before Rhonda Byrne discovered the secret that one's positive thoughts are powerful magnets that attract wealth, health, and happiness, Trine already knew it.
- Authentic Happiness: Using the New Positive Psychology to Realize Your Potential for Lasting Fulfillment by Martin Seligman: I have read about 80 pages and I am enjoying Seligmen's friendly, engaging writing style so far. Also, there are interesting facts about each person's 'range' of happiness being fixed on a spectrum.Great so far. Will attempt to update review when I have completed the book.
- Happiness Hypothesis: Putting Ancient Wisdom to the Test of Modern Science by Jonathan Haidt: Jonathon Haidt is a terrifically productive thinker about psychology. This is book is a credo and a guide book to your own happiness via an accomplished romp through the psychological literature which Haidt uses to explore the truths of ancient religion. I'm surprised it's not a wild best seller, but I think I know why - it doesn't have an singular and catchy formula for your salvation which you can learn in your lunchtime and hear about ad nauseam on late night TV infomercials. Just well written, well thought out commentary on the formula for a happy and fulfilled life distilled from the psychological literature.
- It's All in Your Head: Thinking Your Way to Happiness by Stephen M. Pollan, Mark Levine: If you've ever wanted to have a conversation with someone on a normal level about undoing negative thinking patterns, this book is about the closest you'll ever get in written form. The style is conversational, pragmatic, and realistic. Kind of like talking to a favorite uncle or aunt who is just "on the mark" about dealing with life. The book focuses on 8 behaviothought patterns that hinder us from being happy NOW, and provides simple, easy "exercises" to do to help overcome them. It is also one of those rare self-help books that the whole family can read, enjoy, and profit from. In my opinion, this book is better than any other I've read by Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Nathaniel Branden, and many others. If you've ever thought you can be happier, YOU CAN, and this book can help you get there.
- Handbook on the Economics of Happiness by Luigino Bruni, Pier Luigi Porta: This Handbook provides an unprecedented forum for discussion of the economic issues relating to happiness. It reviews the more recent literature and offers the interested reader an insight into the vast scope of the field in terms of the theory, its applications and also experimental design. The Handbook also gives substantial indications as to the future direction of research in the field, with particular regard to policy applications and developing an economics of interpersonal relations which includes reciprocity and social interaction theory.
- Freeing your child from negative thinking: powerful, practical strategies to build a lifetime of resilience, flexibility, and happiness by Tamar E. Chansky: This book is excellent for those who wish to embrace Food Combining i.e. what has become known as the Hay Diet. It is where one avoids mixing starch-based foods and protein-based foods in the same meal.
- The 7 Steps of Spiritual Intelligence: The Practical Pursuit of Purpose, Success and Happiness Volume by Richard A. Bowell: Pioneering researcher and educator Richard Bowell delivers the first and only self-help guide to the power of spiritual intelligence (SQ)-the next evolutionary stage in our pursuit of purpose, success, and happiness. He introduces the latest breakthroughs in neuro-science. Life lessons from such exceptional individuals as Nelson Mandela to Ghandi and Mother Theresa take readers on a self-guided journey to personal development and growth.

Hogwarts
Nestled amidst the picturesque Highlands, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry stands as a breathtaking testament to architectural splendor and enchantment.
As you approach, its grandeur unfolds before your eyes. Towers and spires reach toward the heavens, seemingly touching the clouds, the castle’s facade, adorned with intricate carvings and mystical symbols, tells a tale of centuries gone by, whispering secrets only the ancient stones remember.
Its sprawling structure sprawls across the rugged hillside, forming a labyrinth of corridors, chambers, and hidden alcoves. Within its walls, the castle boasts countless rooms, each one possessing its own allure and mystery.
Yet, it is not just the scale that captivates the senses; it is the palpable magic that permeates every stone, every crevice. The air crackles with untamed energy, as if the very essence of the wizarding world dances within its walls. Whispers of spells and incantations echo through the corridors, mingling with the laughter and camaraderie of students.
As daylight bathes the castle, the windows reveal an its colours, casting vibrant hues upon the ancient stones. When night falls, the castle transforms into a beacon of light, its windows aglow with the soft radiance of countless enchanted candles, casting a warm and ethereal glow.
Magical creatures find their place within the castle’s embrace. From the majestic owls that roost in the Owlery to the mischievous ghosts that roam the corridors. Vines and ivy cling to the walls, their emerald tendrils tracing intricate patterns, as if celebrating the union of magic and nature. With the lush greenery of lawns, gardens, and the Forbidden Forest providing a haven for magical flora and fauna.
In every nook and cranny, Hogwarts weaves a tapestry of beauty, history, and wonder. It is a sanctuary of knowledge, a playground of magical discovery, and a testament to the profound connection between humans and the mystical world that surrounds them. To walk its corridors and gaze upon its splendor is to witness the embodiment of the wizarding realm—a place where dreams take flight and the extraordinary becomes ordinary.

I am 23 years old, from London and have been role playing for a few years now!
Here's what I can bring to the table:
- I can craft multi-paragraph, though I'm flexible depending on my partner's preferences. I can also manage multiple characters at once during a role play, and ideally looking for someone who can do the same.
- I can adeptly portray both male and female characters, I lean towards writing male characters in romantic scenarios, we will be using celebrity face claims for the characters!
- I thrive on out-of-character (OOC) discussions and enjoy delving into topics ranging from literature to gaming. Connecting with my writing partner on a personal level enhances the collaborative experience for me.
- Discord serves are my preferred platform for roleplay, providing an organized space with servers and channels to streamline our storytelling experience.
- I'm comfortable using face claims to visually represent our characters and am open to collaborative world-building.
- Open to NSFW elements both on the more gritty darker side of the story to the sexual elements as well, we can discuss kinks and limits in the chat!
Looking forward to hearing from you! 🥂

2024.05.21 09:07 GuiltlessMaple Best Cold Steel Claymore
 | submitted by GuiltlessMaple to u/GuiltlessMaple [link] [comments] https://preview.redd.it/9cbd9uh6bq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d50c6a0da0bb719864f12f73a2c5524c2dd4161f Get ready to step into the world of Cold Steel Claymore, a roundup article that brings together some of the most exciting and innovative products in the market. This article is designed to engage and inform, providing an in-depth look at what makes these products stand out from the crowd. Whether you're a seasoned warrior or just starting out, Cold Steel Claymore has something for everyone. So, grab your sword and shield, and let's dive into the action! The Top 12 Best Cold Steel Claymore
Reviews🔗Dependable Tanto SAS Knife with Polypropylene Handlehttps://preview.redd.it/9q03oi37bq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7cef16362d808909dc6e2d2a8d76861057cabf95 The Cold Steel GI Tanto 80PGTK is a versatile, well-rounded tactical knife that has become a staple for many outdoor enthusiasts and survivalists. Its broad blade and integrated guard design provide a solid grip, while the Polypropylene handle scales offer a comfortable and durable hold. I've had the pleasure of using this knife in various situations, from camping trips to survival drills, and it has never let me down. The 1055 carbon steel ensures a strong, rugged construction that holds up well against rust and harsh conditions. The spring-tempered steel provides an excellent balance between strength and flexibility, allowing the blade to withstand the most demanding tasks without compromising its performance. One of the standout features of the GI Tanto is its versatility - it can be easily converted into a spear in a pinch, simply by removing the handle scales and attaching the blade to a suitable wooden shaft. This adaptability makes it an invaluable addition to any survival kit or bug-out bag. However, no product is without its drawbacks, and the GI Tanto is no exception. While its sturdy construction ensures a long lifespan, handling it for extended periods can be tiring due to its substantial weight. Additionally, the knife's size makes it less practical for everyday carry or more discreet situations. Price-wise, the GI Tanto is a steal, offering a fantastic value for its quality and features. It's affordable enough to stock up on multiple copies for personal use or as gifts for friends and family. In summary, the Cold Steel GI Tanto 80PGTK is a robust, versatile, and dependable tactical knife that has earned its reputation among outdoor enthusiasts and survivalists alike. Its few drawbacks are outweighed by its numerous benefits, making it a great choice for anyone looking for a durable and versatile blade for their adventures. 🔗SK-5 High Carbon Cold Steel - Chaos Double Edge Knifehttps://preview.redd.it/dsxhqrg7bq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2c11baf5b98a6d4d1484fd61604b203ac40a7541 One day, I found myself in a situation where I needed a reliable and sturdy knife. After a quick research, I stumbled upon the Cold Steel Chaos, a double-edge fixed blade inspired by the classic trench knives from both World Wars. This knife was designed for modern-day warriors, offering both security and comfort while holding it. Upon holding the knife, the unique D-ring guard made of reinforced 6061 aluminum caught my attention. It allowed me to grip the knife securely, while also protecting my hand from incoming attacks and damage. The 1055 carbon steel pommel was tapered for punyo or butt-strikes, making it perfect to defend myself in a life-threatening scenario. The 7.5-inch SK-5 high carbon blade was available in either double-edge or tanto blade shapes. I opted for the double-edge, as I believed it would provide a more efficient cutting and striking experience. The black Tuff-Ex coating on the blade enhanced corrosion resistance and improved cutting power by reducing friction. The handle, made of 6061 T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, felt solid and secure in my hand. It accommodated a wide range of hand sizes, including mine with average-sized hands. The knife came with a tough Secure-Ex sheath, equipped with a belt loop for dependable and versatile carry. My experience with the Cold Steel Chaos double-edge blade was nothing short of impressive. It offered a perfect balance between form and function in a sleek design. Although it was a bit heavy compared to other knives, its weight contributed to its strength and effectiveness. The knife was sharp, sturdy, and ready for action at all times, making it an excellent addition to my daily life and adventures. 🔗San MAI Recon Tanto Sas Knife - High-Quality VG-10 Stainless Steel Blade with Kray-Ex Handlehttps://preview.redd.it/f4qqtn08bq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f93c83150eccc01fc361e212cb80f748bdb5a332 I've been using the Cold Steel San MAI Recon Tanto as my daily pocket knife for the past few months, and I must say, it's a fantastic blade. The handle is made of Black Kray-Ex, providing a solid grip with no rolling or twisting in the hand, even under heavy use. The knife measures 11.75 inches overall, with a blade length of 17.9 cm, making it perfect for various tasks. One of the most impressive features of this Tanto is its blade, made of VG-10 San Mai Stainless Steel. The deep lustrous satin finish on the hollow ground blade bevels and the contrasting line grain finish on the blade flats emphasize the knife's unique appearance. The blade is razor sharp, and I haven't needed much maintenance, even after some heavy use. Although it's not a "do-it-all" knife, the Cold Steel San MAI Recon Tanto is a great medium-sized Tanto. It's been through some rough use, and I'm glad to say it held up well. The knife comes with a thick, high-quality Secure-Ex sheath that has given me years of hard service, keeping my Tanto at my side.

Its sharp, AUS 8A full-tang blade is a testament to top-notch quality, but one standout feature that really caught my attention is the vacuum heat treatment and sub-zero quenching for added strength and durability. Designed with the philosophy of functionality at heart, its compact construction feels just as comfortable in tight boots as on a belt or holster. The handle, finished in a sleek black, fits comfortably in the hand and provides a firm grip in even the most high-pressure situations. With the Counter TAC I, there's no compromise on utility. Its purpose-built design ensures that it's as adaptable as it is versatile, allowing both pros and novices to appreciate its efficiency in a range of situations. However, no product is perfect, and this one isn't an exception either. While the knife excels at what it does, one could argue that its performance comes at the cost of a slightly heavier handle. Nevertheless, given its exceptional capabilities, it's a small price to pay. Despite a few minor drawbacks, the Counter TAC I by Cold Steel is a robust, reliable, and highly functional boot knife that's well worth its investment. With a wide array of features that have garnered praise from users, this knife makes a compelling contender in the boot knives category. 🔗VG-1 San Mai 3 Stainless Steel Cold Steel Oss Hunting Knife with Kray-Ex Handlehttps://preview.redd.it/vzyhp1r8bq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=27033da80a9f4f9bf62417865b2b6a2f1ad3d94b As a reviewer who has tried the Cold Steel Master Hunter, I can confidently say that it has become my go-to knife for various outdoor activities. One of the features that stood out to me was the comfortable, deeply checkered Kraton grip, which allows for long-term use without any discomfort. The broad, thin blade with a distinct taper provides exceptional cutting ability, edge retention, and ease of resharpening. However, one of the cons I encountered was the knife's tendency to be easily lost due to its minimalistic design. I also noticed that the blade occasionally required additional sharpening, despite its excellent edge retention. Nevertheless, the overall performance and durability of the Master Hunter make it a reliable and versatile tool for all your hunting needs. 🔗Highly Durable Cold Steel Bushman Knife for Survival Needshttps://preview.redd.it/d5goqm69bq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=014c0da5049081bbbc40541cf9ccc91a0d7ebd5a Recently, I had the pleasure of using the Cold Steel Bushman Knife and let me tell you, my experience was quite an adventure. This knife, with its 7-inch blade made of SK-5 high carbon steel, proved to be a reliable companion on my outdoor excursions. One of the standout features was its hollow handle, which was surprisingly versatile. I was able to store a few essentials inside, and with the right handle extensions, I could reach impressive lengths for certain tasks. The knife's unique construction allowed for a seamless blend of blade and handle, which gave it a solid, reliable feel. However, there was one drawback to my experience: the sheath. While the Secure-Ex sheath featured a Ferrocerium Fire Steel, which was convenient for starting fires, it had a few issues. The locking mechanism was less than secure, making it prone to accidental release. It also lacked a left-handed option, which could be a dealbreaker for some users. Despite these minor setbacks, the Cold Steel Bushman Knife proved to be a sturdy and practical tool for various outdoor activities. With its strong blade and adaptable handle, it was a reliable ally on my adventures. While the sheath could use some improvements, the knife itself more than made up for it. 🔗Cold Steel Oss Scimitar Knife for Commercial Useshttps://preview.redd.it/wc452lq9bq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=42db8041dce2d950ba562be12a1e9aa1b00d6f33 The Cold Steel Commercial Series Scimitar Knife has truly become an indispensable addition to my daily life, thanks to its remarkable design and unmatched quality.

This tomahawk boasts a 5mm thick leaf made of 65 m carbon steel, giving it a robust and sturdy feel. The 24 oz weight distribution adds a perfect balance that makes throwing it a breeze. Its 17 1/2 inch length comes with a comfortable 9 1/2 inch nylon wrapping handle, making it easy to grip and wield. The single-piece design, crafted by custom knifemaker Andrew Demko, ensures durability and strength. The axe also comes with a detachable articulated sheath that offers protection from the sharp edge. While I really like the balance and durability of this Cold Steel Recon Hawk, I've noticed that the hollow ground edge can be a bit fragile. It doesn't stick as well as some other throwing tomahawks. However, the balance and heft make up for it, and the axe is great for survival, escape and evasion scenarios or just a day of outdoor fun. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, well-balanced tomahawk. 🔗High-Quality Cpm-3V Carbon Steel Drop Forged Survivalist Knife (Stonewash Finish)https://preview.redd.it/p9qga1habq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=94040652b5f025bf9b8ff0c55133a058919fd290 The Cold Steel 3V Master Hunter, with its stone wash finish (36CB), is a fantastic upgrade to the classic design. With an extra broad American CPM3-V High Carbon Steel blade that can hold a razor-sharp edge, this knife definitely stands out in the crowd. It's not just sharp - it's also incredibly durable, handling tasks from cutting power cords to field dressing large game with ease. Its comfortable Kray-Ex handle provides a non-slip grip, even in wet or sticky conditions. However, there are a couple of drawbacks. The Secure-Ex case, while functional, might not be the most durable option. Additionally, it's worth considering an alternative sheath, such as leather or Kydex, to prevent dulling the edge or damage to the knife. Nonetheless, the Cold Steel 3V Master Hunter (36CB) still delivers a satisfying hunting and camping experience, making it a top choice for those who appreciate a versatile and reliable tool in the field. 🔗Cold Steel Master Tanto Fixed Blade Knife with Kraton Handlehttps://preview.redd.it/zg2rsosabq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b7b39f7c5baafe2e48dc482ec436bd1726222c86 I recently had the chance to put the Cold Steel Master Tanto 3V to the test, and I must say, it was quite the experience. This knife is a true gem, with a deep lustrous satin finish on the hollow ground blade bevels that really accentuates its unique appearance. The contrasting line grain finish on the blade flats sets it apart from other Tantos and highlights Cold Steel's state-of-the-art grinding methods.

It's a versatile knife that can handle everything from slicing through meat to cutting your way through the wilderness. And with an overall length of 11.5", it's the ideal size for everyday carry or for bringing along on your camping trips. Overall, the Cold Steel Master Tanto 3V is a fantastic knife that's well worth the investment. Its high-quality materials, unique appearance, and reliability make it a standout choice for anyone in the market for a new Tanto blade. 🔗Cold Steel Canadian Belt Knife: A High-Quality Fixed Blade for Ultimate Penetration and Precisionhttps://preview.redd.it/ursdzjbbbq1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fe5059aa9a277300a99e4e3fae5c520d180d86ce This classic sub-hilt knife, with a 4.5-inch VG-10 San MAI clip point blade, offers incredible reach and penetration. The black G-10 handle provides a perfect balance, allowing for easy blade movement. The knife's overall length of 13.25 inches and satin finish make it a beautiful addition to any collection.

This Tactical Katana, made from high carbon steel with a thickness of almost 1/4 of an inch, is truly reminiscent of the intricately designed blades that have been passed down through the ages. What stood out from my experience with the product was not only its superb quality, but its impressive overall length of forty inches. This means that it can be not only an imposing decorative piece in any living space, but also a convenient accessory for various reenactments such as historical events or cosplay events, where the realism matters a lot. However, the only drawback I can think of is its manufacturing location - the U. S. may be the preferred and trusted location for crafting such traditional items, but its manufacturing in China could pose potential doubts about its authentic craftsmanship. Other than that, the Katana Warrior Series is a truly valuable buy that gives a taste of the richness of Japanese culture without the hefty tag usually associated with genuine swords.

2024.05.21 08:44 nano-3624-digi How do I (F23) deal with my boyfriend (M24) not keeping his word on relationship maintenance activities?
I’ve (F23) been dating my boyfriend (M24) for the past 4 years since college. He has many great qualities like he cleans our apartment regularly, he doesn’t hesitate to help when I ask, and he’s generally non-judgmental.
I feel comfortable being open and honest with him in many aspects, but I feel like he doesn’t reciprocate in that way. I thought he was originally, but occasionally when I explain something that bothers me, he would shut down or bring up his issues with me that’s been bothering him.
It’s incredibly frustrating that he chooses these moments to come forward because it feels like it makes the conversations focus on him when I’m trying to say something like “hey I felt hurt when you did X. And I’ve noticed it’s been a pattern.” Usually if it’s something that happens once, I let it go because it doesn’t matter in the end, but it’s been focused around planning dates and gift giving as of late. He only really gets around to doing either during birthdays, Christmas and Valentine’s day, which I appreciate, but I’d prefer a once a month thing. In terms of gifts, I dont mind if it’s not exorbitant- flowers, cute little trinkets, artsy/plant related items would suffice. I moreso just want to have a little thing as a demonstration that he’s thinking of me and WANTS do something for me.
We had a conversation about it 5-6 months ago and we agreed that I’ll give him the space to initiate, but it’s May and the last time anything even happened was Valentine’s Day.
We had a convo recently and he stated that it’s because he’s stressed and procrastinating because he felt like he’s messing it up bad, which is why nothing has happened. He also asked why I didn’t initiate as well, which I was upset by the idea because we talked about him initiating initially? He also said he WANTS to do these things but he’s struggling to find the right gift or figure out the right date set up and I’m just confused where this pressure is coming from because I just want anything at this point, which I have stated multiple times.
I don’t know- I’m sort of just tired of it and feel like he’s all talk and really only commits to these things when the relationship is in an emergency. He’s setting something up in a couple of weeks but I don’t even know how I feel about it right now. I spent a lot of energy convincing myself that I’m asking for a lot just to cope and even expressed it. He always says I’m not asking for a lot so why isn’t he doing anything?
Ultimately I asked him to go see a therapist because I can’t really help him if it’s a genuine internal issue. He had been really resistant for a couple years because I originally suggested it because he used to shut down for seemingly no reason for a whole day and when I asked he would say he’d have no idea, but with our recent convo, he said he’ll do it.
I don’t know I should be pretty happy that he’s finally listening to my suggestions, but I’ve been saying the same things for a while, and now that I’m here I just feel okay I guess. As I said he has a lot of good qualities- like he’s super reliable otherwise in everyday life, financially, and emotionally support if it’s unrelated to him, which is why I’ve been with him.
Am I asking for a lot? Am I communicating incorrectly in some way? Is this worth it? Am I too tolerant or intolerant? What’s y’all’s thoughts? Got any advice?

N3E è stato progettato come una versione semplificata del processo N3 originale, riducendo i costi di produzione tramite l'eliminazione di alcuni strati che richiedevano la litografia ultravioletta estrema (EUV) e evitando l'uso del doppio patterning EUV. Questo ha migliorato i rendimenti, pur riducendo occasionalmente la densità dei transistor e l'efficienza energetica. Questi svantaggi sono stati affrontati attraverso ottimizzazioni strategiche del design.
Il prossimo processo N3P rappresenta una riduzione ottica di N3E, promettendo ulteriori avanzamenti. Ha superato con successo i test e dimostra rendimenti vicini a quelli di N3E. N3P mira a migliorare le prestazioni fino al 4% o a ridurre il consumo energetico di circa il 9% alle stesse velocità di clock, migliorando anche la densità dei transistor del 4% per chip con configurazioni di design miste. N3P manterrà la compatibilità con i blocchi IP, gli strumenti di design e le metodologie di N3E. La produzione è prevista per la seconda metà di quest'anno, con una rapida adozione prevista da parte dei progettisti di chip, inclusi clienti principali come Apple e AMD. Si prevede che i principali produttori come Apple integreranno questa tecnologia nella loro gamma di prodotti del 2025, inclusi i SoC per smartphone, PC e tablet.

TSMC Inizierà la Produzione di Massa del Nodo N3P a 3nm di Terza Generazione nel 2024
TSMC sta per avviare la produzione di massa della sua tecnologia di nodo a 3nm di terza generazione, nota come N3P, entro la fine di quest'anno, dopo il successo della tecnologia di processo di seconda generazione a 3nm (N3E) nel quarto trimestre del 2023. Durante l'European Technology Symposium, TSMC ha annunciato di essere pronta per la produzione ad alto volume (HVM) di N3P nella seconda metà del 2024. Il processo N3E, adottato inizialmente da Apple per i suoi processori M4, ha visto un aumento del numero di transistor e delle velocità operative rispetto ai processori M3 basati su N3. TSMC ha descritto i rendimenti di N3E come "eccellenti", indicando una forte performance e prontezza di mercato.N3E è stato progettato come una versione semplificata del processo N3 originale, riducendo i costi di produzione tramite l'eliminazione di alcuni strati che richiedevano la litografia ultravioletta estrema (EUV) e evitando l'uso del doppio patterning EUV. Questo ha migliorato i rendimenti, pur riducendo occasionalmente la densità dei transistor e l'efficienza energetica. Questi svantaggi sono stati affrontati attraverso ottimizzazioni strategiche del design.
Il prossimo processo N3P rappresenta una riduzione ottica di N3E, promettendo ulteriori avanzamenti. Ha superato con successo i test e dimostra rendimenti vicini a quelli di N3E. N3P mira a migliorare le prestazioni fino al 4% o a ridurre il consumo energetico di circa il 9% alle stesse velocità di clock, migliorando anche la densità dei transistor del 4% per chip con configurazioni di design miste. N3P manterrà la compatibilità con i blocchi IP, gli strumenti di design e le metodologie di N3E. La produzione è prevista per la seconda metà di quest'anno, con una rapida adozione prevista da parte dei progettisti di chip, inclusi clienti principali come Apple e AMD. Si prevede che i principali produttori come Apple integreranno questa tecnologia nella loro gamma di prodotti del 2025, inclusi i SoC per smartphone, PC e tablet.

2024.05.21 07:36 chromaticality Is this a linguistic or familial quirk?
Let's say my name is Sophie. My father calls me Sophie-girl, or daughter-mine. I call him father-mine. These phrases are used in the same affectionate way a nickname or term of endearment like 'sweetheart' would be. His parents had similar phrases they used with their children.
We are generic WASPs, ancestry mostly from England and Ireland. Dad was born and raised in Seattle, WA. I was also mostly raised on the west coast. His mother was from Kansas. I think his father was also born in Seattle but I'm not sure. My grandparents called each other 'daddy' and 'mother', but my parents use their normal names with each other. Dad is 74yo, I am 35.
Is this name-descriptor pattern something that can be traced linguistically, or is it just something my family does?
