9 1 1 season premiere

pre-tl;dr, booked a "refundable" flight, cancelled it, been fighting with Chase for a way to use it ever sense. Looking for how to proceed.
​

• Last year I booked a $1500 refundable overseas flight through chase travel. Used chase travel as it said the flight was refundable, where as booking through the airline directly had no such wording.
• Ended up needing to cancel the flight. Chase Travel said the flight wasn't actually refundable
• Complained, escalated, etc, a supervisor was finally after hours on the phone able to get me a travel credit. Gave me a travel credit number to reference, says i have to book by 6/1/23. Great.
• Try to use travel credit on a different flight. Discover after many more hours on the phone with chase travel supervisors that the travel credit isn't really a full credit, its actually 2 smaller credits (the original flight was 2 one-way flights and not a round trip??? :shrug:. Basically those 2 credits have to originate in the same place the original flight had to originate, so, basically, I have to fly to the same country and back that I originally wanted to. Fine, whatever.
• Try to rebook flight back to original country. Am told that no, you can't just book by 6/1, you actually have to FLY by 6/1. Complain again to supervisor. Finally get someone sympathetic, they spend 3.5 hours reading old history of this case, eventually through much back and forth manage to book me on a flight on the dates I want to the destination. Very apologetic. Great success.
• Get an email from chase travel: This is regarding with your flight reservation kindly give us a call back as soon as possible so we can arrange your travel schedule.... wtf
• Call them back, the flight has been moved UP to next week from september, i ask why, "we were not able to honor the previously booked flight"

Literally losing my mind over this. Have been on the phone with them at least 6 hours total so far. Do I just cut my loss and run?

I’ll get straight to the point. As a trader you fail a prop firm challenge because you’re not aggressive enough. This statement assumes that you have a strategy you’ve already forward tested (back testing is overrated) and that you know your way around loops like avoiding news and those types of subtleties that get you away from poor trading periods especially a day trader.
Allow me to elaborate now. You are not aggressive enough. I cannot guarantee you will pass a 30 days eval but I can guarantee you will not fail. The aggressiveness does not talk about risking nonsense as I myself risk no more than 0.25% of my funded account per trade. So how aggressive should you be? It’s about the number of trades!
Once again I must emphasize that you have forward tested your approach at least a 100 times on the same timeframe you’re going to use for the evaluation (if possible on those same instruments even and that would be much better) because you’re going to need to use the rule of probability that governs trading.
It’s a simple as this (here’s my own personal experience): I have a strategy that give me a 40% win rate. I have tried adjusting everything I can but it does not care about me and it only yields 40%. The better part is that my reward to risk ratio is 4:1.
Let’s break this down, over 20 trades of risking 0.25% I lose 3% of my account upon 12 losses ( risk management on fleek here because such a catastrophic streak still does not get me to even half of the allowed drawdown). When I win, I win 8 trades of 0.25. So 0.2548= 8% sur an overall win of 5% over 20 trades.
As a trader you need to understand that consistency is over a series of trades not over individual trades.
Even if you have a 60% win rate (which I have when I swing trade cryptos and stocks) you still will never EVER be able to tell me in advance which ones will win or lose or else you would never lose because you could pick the losers in advance. You don’t fail the evaluation because you are a bad trader (even though you may be). You fail because you’re trying to discover if your answers make sense on the day of the exam. You should have trained enough over time to know what percentage to expect over 20 trades and what R:R makes this percentage profitable. Trading 100 times live with your strategy and logging and journaling is a very good start! Because while you you can pass the 30 days challenge as a swing trader, these evals are really for us day traders. As swing trader taking 20 trades in month with all the trades being taken and concluded in 30 days is … rare. Additionally the daily drawdown in MYforexfunds is based on equity so some firms can have this rule so you will need to be aware.
Now comes the part of trading 20 times within the 30 days period without making a trading error. If you can’t execute 20 trades without a mistake (in reality no more than 2/20 trades should be have mistakes and fewer is better) within a 30 days period then you should stop day trading for now.

I edit as a hobby so insane speeds aren't necessary for me. I just want something affordable that can last a while. I edit in 1080p H.264 and I'm not sure if I'll move over to 4K in the future.
Here's what I was thinking of:

• OS Drive: WD Blue SN570 250GB
  • I prefer to put my OS on a separate drive since I like to reinstall windows 1-2 times a year.
• Active Projects Drive: WD Blue SN570 1TB
  • It has 600TBW so I can add and remove 300GB's of the drive everyday for 5 years. I definitely wont be doing anything close to that. Maybe I'll add 30-40GB's, work on the project, and remove it a week later to start the next one.
• Programs Drive: Crucial MX500 2.5" SATA 3 SSD
  • Heard it was a good drive, will mainly use it as my programs drive and play games off it.
• Storage Drive: WD Blue 2TB 3.5" SATA 3 HDD
  • It has some good reviews, 2TB's is all I'll need for a while.

All advice/recommendations appreciated.
Thanks.

I went in a flames of a broken family to fix issues that I didn't create. And to fix a man who is not willing to be fixed. I can admit that I have some big issues with my attachment, and some of them I realized in this relationship and they have been major reasons why I fell in love with him.
(23F) have been with my fiance (33M) 1,5 years. We fell in love so hard that it was magical kind of. It felt like a drug and a daydream. At the beginning it was so easy and I thought that he is the one. Still think that in some ways. He really got me. We had some small arguments and disagreements around 6 months in but they were nothing too much. At the beginning he was jealous of me talking literally to any male. Friends, colleagues, climbing friends, saying few words to strangers. I have always been kind of shy but wanted to make friends and I have been able to make some friends as an adult. Both female and male. He have been really old fashioned and he thinks that all my male buddies are only trying to hit me. Anyways jealousity have been issue in our relationship. I have never cheated or even though of cheating. I'm not interested sexually in other people at all. I'm interested in people and making "good day friends" whenever I had a chance. Or that who I used to be. I have shifted from that to a person who is afraid to speak other people like I used to talk whenever he is around. From a social butterfly I have become someone's property. That's what I feel like in this relationship. He refuses to understand me about this. He just gets mad to me when we talk about it. He has 2 kids from previous marriage. 12F and 13F. They are not easy kids. He is able to talk to his ex wife and they have kind of cold and neutral way to communicate to each other. Not like going to court and fighting about everything. But I feel like there is something in his past that he doesn't want to talk about. He have told kinda much about how he was really young and reckless, didn't care much about his wife at the time. Made kids by accident and got stuck with person he really didn't want or love. Which is sad. Same time I feel like he is lying about some parts of the story. I have caught him lying about small things now and then and lying and changing the storyline is not something I would be surprised. He might be lying to sound better to me. He knows that if I stay with him it would be some kind of sacrifice from my life, because I'm young and I really haven't even though about having kids in a near future, but if I end up with him, kids will follow us whenever we go. Or more like we have to dragg them everywhere and always think about them. I love him but I really don't think I want to live this life. My feelings are going like a rollercoaster and the low ones are really low. Same time I'm struggling financially and trying to get to the university or somewhere to get my education. (I have been working all kinds of jobs and I found this guy from my last job as a correctional office prison guard) I'm going to add that I really care about his kids. They are annoying but I really care. And I take them to park, ice cream, walks, to the mall and everywhere now and then. I just sometimes feel like I can't breathe here. (We are living together)
If I could turn back time and not go to a date with, I wouldn't start dating him at all. Older men with kids are not worth it for people my age. Even he is the best lover and best funniest person to me, the baggage from ex wife and neurodivergent kids are just so much. They are really much even for older people without kids.
It is probably not going to get easier. Please write something to me, I need to talk to someone smarter than me.

Personally, I say no but figured I'd get some thoughts. Also, despite being a mod, I have no idea how to make the sub black out. Also, I have no idea what the other mods think.
Finally, here is a ritual I've designed. Perhaps we could all do it at the same time. Feel free to make it yours.
This ritual aims to channel the forces of chaos and synchronicity to manifest a protective shield for third-party apps on Reddit, preventing their banishment. By combining intention, belief, and the vibrant spirit of Lizzo, we will tap into the cosmic currents of change and influence the collective consciousness surrounding this issue.
Materials:

1. A candle (preferably in a color that represents creativity and empowerment, such as orange or yellow)
2. A printout or representation of the Reddit logo
3. Incense or smudge stick (optional)
4. A small bowl of water
5. A piece of paper and pen
6. Your favorite Lizzo song (to be played during the ritual)

Instructions:

1. Preparation:

• Find a quiet and comfortable space where you won't be disturbed.
• Set up your materials on a clean surface.
• Light the candle and the incense/smudge stick (if using).
• Take a few deep breaths to center yourself and enter a focused state of mind.

​

1. Invocation:

• Hold the Reddit logo or representation in your hands.
• Close your eyes and visualize a vibrant, pulsating energy surrounding the logo.
• Recite the following invocation (feel free to modify it or create your own):
• "Oh, mighty forces of chaos and synchronicity, I call upon you to protect the third-party apps of Reddit. I summon the essence of Robert Anton Wilson's wisdom, And the joyful spirit of Lizzo's empowering energy. May the tides of change align in our favor, And shield these apps from banishment forevermore."

​

1. Symbolic Gesture:

• Take the piece of paper and pen.
• Write down your intention clearly and concisely.
• For example: "I intend to prevent Reddit from banning third-party apps."
• Place the paper in the bowl of water, visualizing the ink merging with the water, symbolizing the manifestation of your intention.

​

1. Dance of Empowerment:

• Put on your favorite Lizzo song, one that resonates with your personal power.
• Begin to move your body in a way that feels natural to you, allowing the music to inspire and energize you.
• Dance with intention, feeling the rhythm and the lyrics infusing you with confidence and strength.
• As you dance, envision waves of positive energy radiating from your body and merging with the protective shield around the Reddit logo.

​

1. Closing:

• Take a moment to express gratitude for the energies you've invoked.
• Extinguish the candle and incense/smudge stick, thanking them for their participation.
• Keep the paper with your intention in a safe place or dispose of it respectfully.
• Whenever you use a third-party Reddit app, visualize the protective shield surrounding it, reinforcing the intention of the ritual.

Rituals are symbolic and psychological tools that can help focus your intention and tap into the power of belief. This ritual is intended to be performed with a sense of joy, creativity, and empowerment. Respect the free will and policies of Reddit while working towards positive change.

My world size is 1.1 GB. When I try load it, it get stuck on 'loading resource packs'. I don't use textures or anything else like that.
I'm late game and was in the process of building a medieval village before it stopped loading.
If I get it to a 2 person realm, will it load? Honestly I don't care if it takes longer than normal to load, I just want to play on the world.
