This was a strange day for me. It was a Monday and my instructor took over teaching for the day. No one was at the park and it was a quiet sunset. The trees showed dying leaves and the colors began to pop out. Something strangely unique about the desert is how colors can change in an instant. The quiet of the waters and the ducks swimming made it feel relaxing.
The cold weather made me quiet and alone in my thoughts as I shot this piece. Being alone in silence when no one is there but yourself you don’t feel lonely, but I felt excited to capture this beautiful park on the North End of Vegas.

2023.06.10 20:26 Hi_Her My birthday was the worst

WARNING: VENTING ANGER
The only saving grace was the lemoncello cake my SO bought for my twin and I (who was also my best support that day because she hates our day just as much).
My dad is a crazy narcissistic sociopath. I have cut contact with him over 12 years ago and he is all 'woe is me' about it to anyone who listens. I dont want to get into my whole life story so the TL;DR is that when I was 11 my parents divorced after my mom defended herself after he attempted to beat her because she got mad at him when she found out he was cheating on her their entire relationship. It was a messy divorce and he is still with the same woman. This woman served me the divorce papers which I didn't know what it was, and it broke me seeing my mom break down after opening the envelope. He never called or visited or let us know where he lived (my twin and I). The only person who knew was my brother. He was my dad's Golden child. Let's say my brother is the type of guy who stole $10,000 as a teen and got away with it, crashed every car he owned and got another within the same week. Lived with my mom until 27 and when he bought his first house told my mom she isn't welcome to ever stay there while allowing his wife's parents to live with them. My dad is also the type of man to use 'inheretance' as an attempt at controlling us our entire lives.
Ok sorry that was so long. But that's the jist of it. So I cut contact with my dad and brother after I had a suicide attempt when i was like, 24 because i was in chronic pain and every doc kept saying it was in my head. The same docs were upset that I took their words literally. How else was I supposed to take it when that's all you say?
Anyways... When I reached out for support my dad said 'what do you expect from me? go find another man to take care of you' and my brother told me to never come near him or his family until I get over myself.
After a decade I stupidly went LC with my brother in attempt to rekindle a relationship. It was going ok until yesterday.
My dad always tries to call and text me to say happy birthday. He never responds to me when I reply. I asked for an apology from him as a birthday present. I've tried talking to my brother about it, I ask him why he never responds. He says he doesn't want to get involved. I said it would be nice to have my older brother stand up for me for once in my life. He responds, basically saying he is sick of my drama with dad, the drama I created between us (brother and I) and if I can't accept everything for what it is, he has nothing to say to me anymore, he's got his own shit to deal with.
I didn't respond to him but I got so angry I somehow shattered a ring off my finger when I slammed my hand down on my coffee table after reading his text message.
Have fun with dad's 'inheretance' while you take care of his stubborn, alcoholic, and demented mind and body as he ages.
Fuck you dad. Fuck you bro. Fuck you Bo for ruining my young mind when you served ME legal documents that dhould have went straight to my mother. You fucking bitch ass cunt couldnt ever face my mom. Stop ruining my life. The exit is stage left. You will never hear or see from me ever again. Setting my phone to block any incoming calls or messages unless they are in my phone book (thanks new phone features), and both your numbers are on the block list you useless shits who aren't even good enough for fertilizer.
Thank you for attending my therapy session. I apologize for my anger. I'm so fucking angry and I'm sorry if it triggers anyone.

2023.06.10 20:24 lynxip_ Brief Guide on Piloting Questline Demon Hunter

Brief Guide on Piloting Questline Demon Hunter
*English is not my native language, so there can be some mistakes about my English. I am sorry about that.
Hello, I am TheUnburnt and I am currently #1 in Asia server, mostly using Questline Demon Hunter.
I usually play on mobile so I don't have stats, but I have played the deck from under #25 and gained more than 150 wins with the deck.
In my opinion, this deck is the best deck in the format but it's also difficult to pilot correctly. I hope this guide help people who try this deck!
  1. Decklist

Class: Demon Hunter

Format: Wild

2x (1) Consume Magic

2x (1) Crimson Sigil Runner

2x (1) Double Jump

2x (1) Felosophy

2x (1) Fierce Outsider

1x (1) Final Showdown

2x (1) Illidari Studies

2x (1) Mana Burn

2x (1) Sigil of Alacrity

AAEBAc7WAwL39gPN0AUO1MgD8skD1tEDztID+dUD2d4D9fYDivcDs6AEtKAEiJIFlJIFpMMF4fgFAAA=

To use this deck, copy it to your clipboard and create a new deck in Hearthstone

Don't tech this deck, this is perfect 30 as it is. Only consideration is to cut 1 Consume Magic to run 1 Disposal of Evidence, but Consume Magic is better in this meta.
If you face decks that doesn't play many minions like Tony Druid very often, that could be an option.
  1. What's the goal of this deck?
You try to play 2 or more Irebound Brute/Vengeful Walloper in early turns then disrupt your opponent with cards like Mana Burn and Glide.
If your board is cleared, you can stack Glaivetar and steal your opponent's deck with Tony.
  1. Mulligan
MUST KEEPS: Sigil of Alacrity, Illidari Studies
You should keep Glaivetar unless your opponent is playing Pirate Rogue or Aggro Shadow Priest, and ALWAYS KEEP on coin regardless of what they are playing.
Keep when it's next to the quest: Crimson Sigil Runner, Fierce Outsider, Spectral Sight, Glide (Only on coin if your opponent's deck is fast)
Keep when on coin: Mana Burn, Acrobatics, Glaivetar
When playing against slower decks, you can keep acrobatics with 1 guaranteed draw card like Runner next to the quest or Double Jump, etc.
Keep Acrobatics with Sigil even when you're going first.
If your opponent's deck is fast, keep Mana Burn when you're going first.
  1. Favored or Unfavored?
This deck is unfavored against Kingsbane Rogue (5:95) and Aggro Shadow Priest. (30:70)
Other matchups are all even are favored.
Even ones: Mech Paladin, Mech Mage, Odd Rogue (There are two Odd Rogue Players in Top 50 Legend in Asia server.), Odd paladin (Top 2 plays Odd Paladin), Questline Druid
  1. How to play in general
First of all, this deck does NOT aim to complete the quest as fast as you can, but aims to discount as many cards as you can.
Early game plan(turn 1~4): If you're facing aggro decks, surviving is the most important goal. Use your hero power and Outsider, Illidari Studies to clear opponent's board as much as possible. You don't have to activate quest in turn 1.
If you're facing slower decks, you may pass some turns since you kept slower cards like Glaivetar or Glide.
In either cases, you may complete quest but you should be discounting at least 3 cards. If not, completing quest can be bad for your game plan since you depend on 2nd quest to discount your hand.
Turn 5~7 are most important turns of the game.
The ideal game plan is, you complete 1st/2nd quest with 3~4 exceeding cards mostly with Glaivetar so you can discount your hand and duplicate them with Felosophy and make your board.
When you're equipping Glaivetar, you should be thinking about how much you draw, since you should't burn your hand and should complete quest with draw from Glaivetar.
When you're not equipping Glaivetar, you must have completed the first quest so you can draw a lot with discounted cards, or at least use Glide at turn 5 and pop up at turn 6.
You may be completing the final quest at this point. You can play it as a 5 mana 7/7 itself to pressure or use it when the board is even to prepare for the Tony plan.
Before the Tony plan, you'd better have played the quest reward beforehand. But, if your opponent has few board and hands, you can give them an empty deck so they can do nothing and lose even if you didn't use the quest reward beforehand.
*You can break through ice block this way.
  1. How to play against certain decks
The mirror: The player who equips Glaivetar gets board faster and will likely win... but you can use Mana Burn on turn 4 or 5 and make your board made of Brute earlier and get the win. The quest reward as 5 mana 7/7 is very useful, so try to complete the quest as long as you got the board.
Pirate Rogue, Secret Mage, Questline Druid, etc..: Try to get less damage as possible and you should be using Glide without outcast if possible since you don't have to make a wide board but 2 or 3 Brutes are enough.
Reno Priest, Reno Warlock, Shudderwock Shaman, etc..: The easiest matchup, you often get the win only with the board and Mana Burn or Glide. You should be thinking about what aoe can your opponent use at the turn.
Quest Mage, Tony Druid, etc..: Always keep Glide. Use Glide when opponent's hand is more than 7 and keep pressuring so they can't tutor their combo requirements or complete quest.
  1. Tips
Usually pick Outsider from Illidari Studies. It makes your Walloper cost 1 less, Glaivetar draw 1 more for free and 2/1 rush is useful most of the time.
If you have enough time, try not to complete 2nd quest with Glide. You only have 4 cards discounted and future cards won't be discounted. The exception is when your opponent has more than 7 cards or the opponent is Tony Druid or APM priest.
You tempo Tony when:
Your opponent is Tony Druid or APM Priest
You have 2 or more Brutes and your opponent is Quest Mage or Questline Druid
Your opponent used Blade Flurry to break their Kingsbane and it's still in the deck
You don't always have to get the quest reward. You gotta full draw when you don't have any demon or Brute against fast decks.
Think what is discounted and what is not. I mean, don't use discounted 0 mana outcast cards after Illidari Studies or Outsider.
If you draw Outsider or Runner at the first turn, play them instead of playing quest when you can't play all the cards in your hand before turn 4.
  1. Postscript
Thanks for reading this guide, I know I didn't provide all the information you want so leave a comment, and I'll answer as long as I can!

2023.06.10 20:22 coranglais The birthday my son deserves

Two years ago my son turned 1. I made plans to have a get together in the park with some people but the morning of I was too hungover to get out of bed and texted it was cancelled because I was "sick". I kept telling myself we'd do something later in the month to make up for it but for the rest of the month there was never a day where I was sober enough to arrange anything, let alone host it. He never had a 1st birthday party.
Fast forward to today and my newborn is suddenly 3 years old haha. Yesterday I took him and his sister to the children's theater and then to a huge candy shop for treats and milkshakes. Today he got his "big present" (a new scooter) and we went to the playground to teach him how to ride it. Next weekend we'll have a party with his friends and birthday cake.
These are the kinds of birthdays my children deserve.
I'll have a year and a half sober in July and there's no turning back now. IWNDWYT!

2023.06.10 20:21 MediaVsReality The King and the Hero — A Short Story About How The Media Truly Works

PART 1 — The King’s Problem
The King did not know empathy.
If he saw somebody in pain, he felt nothing. If he watched a child cry, he felt nothing. And if he saw an injured bird on the road, he would press the sole of his boot on top of it without a second thought.
This was just as he governed.
The people lacked food, yet the King felt nothing. And did nothing. For in his palace, he had all the food he would ever need.
The people lacked medicine, yet the King felt nothing. And did nothing. For in his palace, he had all the medicine he would ever need.
The people lacked education, yet the King felt nothing. And did nothing. For in his palace, he had all the books and scholars he would ever need.
In his palace built entirely of solid gold, he was the most powerful King in all the land.
But the King had a problem. One thorn in his side. One little nuisance that kept him awake at night.
From nowhere, a man had appeared. His name: Rohe
Rohe spoke atop a platform in the streets to the people. He spoke of the unjust nature of The King’s rule, of the palace made of solid gold and the endless luxuries stored within it.
Rohe blamed the King for the hunger the people had suffered. And he blamed the King for the deaths of brothers, sisters, children, mothers and fathers due to the lack of medicine.
And finally, Rohe told the people to rise up against the King, storm the palace of solid gold and take back control of their food, their medicine and their land.
Worst of all, to the King’s terror, the people had begun to support Rohe. In the streets, Rohe would draw thousands of supporters. “Freedom for the people” they would chant in unison.
The King was utterly furious. How dare these low-born peasants chant such things. How dare these stupid, ignorant and inferior men even consider stealing his rightfully owned riches.
Something had to be done.
Not knowing what to do, he spoke to his 3 most trusted advisors.
The first advisor suggested he have Rohe killed.
The second advisor suggested he have Rohe thrown in jail.
The third advisor, the most cunning and mischievous of the 3, disapproved of the plans of the first 2 advisors. Killing him or throwing him in jail, he explained, would encourage the crowds still further.
Instead, he suggested something different entirely. He suggested they turn the people against Rohe.
“How?” asked the King curiously. “How can we turn the people against him”?
The third advisor adjusted the large, rounded glasses that lay on top his big, crooked nose and grew a mischievous smile. “Why the newspapers, of course.”
PART 2 — The Third Advisor
The lands had hundreds of different newspapers, but only 3 main ones, which were by far the most widely read.
The people believed these newspapers to be run by well-meaning people who aimed to tell them honestly of the goings-on throughout the world.
The truth was different.
While it was made to appear that these newspaper were run independently, they were in fact controlled by the King himself. Whenever the King needed, he could control everything that was written inside one of the 3 main newspapers.
The King granted the cunning third advisor the task of turning the people against Rohe. And so, the third advisor began his research:
To his dismay, he found Rohe to be perfect. A true hero.
Through his research, he discovered several things about Rohe:
- He had a loving wife and two young children.
- He had grown up poor and had managed to create a little bit of wealth through hard work on his farm.
- He was strong, with big, bulging muscles and a handsome face.
- On his farm worked 10 white men and 2 black men, all of whom he treated with great kindness and respect.
- He was rarely at home with his family. He was always working, helping at the local school or in the streets doing his speeches.
Upon finishing his research, a crooked smile crept upon the face of the third advisor. He adjusted his spectacles and muttered to himself.
“This is all I need…”
PART 3 — The Article
RoheThe People’s Hero Or Attention Seeking Conspiracy Theorist?
Rising from an obscure background, Rohe the so-called “Hero” has ballooned in popularity in recent months. Everywhere he goes, commotion follows; drawing crowds of thousands of worshipping fans who hang on every word he says.
He has been reported bellowing his ideology in Lockwood, Brimshore, Farmsdale and even as far as Watershire. It seems as though Rohe is a mastermind at drawing the attention of others. Where does this attention go? Well, to himself of course. With his handsome dark hair and muscular physique, public image is seemingly the fuel that Mr Rohe feeds on. ‘
“He’s come from God! He’s like God himself!” exclaimed one of his fanatic supporters as we interviewed them.
Mr Rohe’s main message seems to be against the King himself; spouting obscure claims such as “The King is keeping all the food for himself while the people starve!”, he cried into a crowd in Lockwood last week. Of course, this isn’t a new line of thought, with other such violent figures as “John the Terrorist” and the now proven liar and fraud Christopher Whittle.
Experts tend to agree that the food hardship some are currently facing is due to a series of unfortunately poor harvests as well as changing whether conditions. We asked the lead food resource advisor in the kingdom for his opinion on the matter. “We’ve heard this all before” he said while holding back a laugh, “Mr Rohe is just parroting the same old conspiracy theories we hear every year”.
While Mr Rohe screams non-stop of the riches of others, his own wealth has been quietly building. Donations from his fanatic supporters have allowed him to purchase a second piece of farmland on top his already wealthy estate. Unsurprisingly, his workforce consists of almost entirely white men with a mere handful of coloured workers throughout his farms.
We travelled to Mr Rohe’s farm and spoke with his wife, who told us “We as almost never see him! He’s constantly on the road. He pops by to see the kids and check on the farm every week or so”. It seems as though it’s difficult to pay close attention to your family when you’re so busy drawing attention to yourself in the streets.
Mr Rohe’s fans seem to admire him deeply, but such adoration can turn nasty. His most extreme supporters have abused, harassed and on one occasion physically assaulted Mr Rohe’s critics. “His fans are relentless”, says well-known critic Johnathon Adams. “The harass me day and night and have even threatened to attack me.
While Mr Rohe does not endorse such violent behaviour, he does not exactly deter it either. He describes the King as “evil” and “corrupt” and once stated that “sometimes the power of the fist is necessary”.
Mr Rohe’s rhetoric seems to attract all kinds of unsavory characters; the aforementioned “Jack the Terrorist” as well as well-known woman beater Joseph Smith have both stated their support for Mr Rohe.
In the end, the key to Mr Rohe’s appeal is also his greatest weakness. He wants to be the man who knows everything and can explain everything. But his arguments are riddled with conspiracy theories and crude distortions of the truth.
Even so, his critics will have a tough time. Mr Rohe’s wave of popularity is unlikely to come crashing down any time soon.
PART 4
A year had passed, and over the months the third advisor wrote countless similar articles and published them in the 3 main newspapers.
To his and the King’s delight, their plan had worked flawlessly.
Support for Mr Rohe began to wane. Many began to accuse Mr Rohe as being a racist. Others claimed he was mistreating his wife. Most began to be see Mr Rohe as somebody not to be taken seriously.
The people started feeling a sense of distrust and dislike towards Mr Rohe deep in their stomachs. They didn’t know exactly why they felt this way, but felt it they did.
Something had switched inside their minds. They began to see everything Mr Rohe did through a negative lens. His previously heroic speeches now seemed shrill and childish. His impressive physique and sharp jaw now seemed vain and self-centred. And his claims about The King and what was really inside his palace made of solid gold now had doubt cast upon them. Some still believed Mr Rohe, some thought him to be exaggerating, most simply threw their hands up in confusion and forgot all about it.
When Mr Rohe made a speech on the streets, many rolled their eyes at his crazy supporters. And with growing frequency, an opposing group of protesters would appear and shout over him. They made claims that Mr Rohe was a racist, and they made jokes about the 2 farms Mr Rohe owned.
The King’s problem had been solved.
The third advisor became one of the King’s closest confidantes and was allowed access to many of the luxuries inside the palace: food, women and anything else he could possibly dream of.
As for the people, their lives steadily got worse and worse. Their food supplies dwindled, medicine became rare to find and the people became sadder, more depressed and more desperate. Despite this, most accepted their situation as “the way life is”, while others blamed God for their misfortune.
One day, another man began to make speeches on the streets against the King. His name: Varios. The People began to call him their “Savior”.
The King passed his pen over to the third advisor. “Ready?”
The third advisor grew a wicked grin.
“Of course”

2023.06.10 20:21 Generic_Username_321 Sweaty Hands & My Dermadry Journey

Just started using Dermadry and I'm going to try and update this every other day to help keep me on track and using it as frequently as I am supposed to because I'm bad about sticking to a routine. This may be more for myself than anything, but if someone else finds it useful, even better. I'll try and format it by sections so you can just read the parts you're interested in.
Dermadry Treatment:
Using the "Upgraded version" with the rubbery bottom mat, and hexagonal grid top mat. I am using bottled water at room temp, however, I have read others using different types of water, and even adding chemicals to the water. For now, I will stick with bottled water, and depending on the results in 2 months, I may change it up.
6/10/23 - 10:00 AM Treatment 1: I used ~250ml of room temp bottled water in each tray. Set the current strength to 5mA to just feel it out (1-15mA is recommended). For the first couple of minutes, I couldn't feel anything, but as we approached the 15min mark I could feel a slight tingling and my hands were a little itchy. The biggest surprise came at the 15min, 10min, and 5min mark (I think). The voltage readout displayed "L5" and I felt a shock strong enough to make my forearms spasm and tense up. It wasn't painful, just a weird feeling, and I assume this has to do with its rotating current phases. Their website states "L5 will be displayed when the tension is lower than 5 volts." I don't know what that means, but I will contact customer support about it. My hands were a bit sweaty after I finished up, and the itchiness was gone after a few minutes, but after an hour my hands dried up a bit and have been completely dry for several hours. I plan on doing it again at 5mA tomorrow and then give it a day of rest before upping the voltage up to 7 or 8mA.
Background: I'm in my late 20s and have suffered from sweaty hands for as long as I can remember. I would say I have it moderate during most of the day, but in social situations, it can go up to a 10 in severity. I'm talking wiping my hands with a paper towel over 10min will completely soak it through. At its worst, I can clench my fist and literally have beads of sweat run off. I get a bit self-conscious in social situations, but I wouldn't say I have bad social anxiety. But it's this slight nervousness that really sets off my sweaty hands.
Improvised treatments: I started out trying to dry my hands with harsh chemicals on a few occasions when I knew I had a social event of some sort that would involve shaking hands. I would soak my hands in brake cleaner or rubbing alcohol as I work with them and had it lying around. Alcohol would just dry it for a bit, but sweating would come back 10-fold within 30min after. Brake cleaner lasted a while longer, but is absolutely terrible for your skin, your health, etc. Please for the love of god, DO NOT use brake cleaner, I was young and stupid and it only worked for a few hours at a time. I also tried wearing latex gloves during my entire time working as it caused me to sweat a bunch and would get my hands to sweat so much, that sometimes it would prevent me from sweating further the rest of the day. This kind of worked, but my work environment has changed, and working in latex gloves now would just make people think I was a psycho. My final attempt was to just get healthy. For a whole year, I dropped almost all caffeine, drank nothing but water, and dietary/workout shakes, worked out and had a diet to match with hardly any dietary cheating. This helped out mostly with social situations, as I wouldn't be near as self-conscious, but I still would get severe sweating during dates, big meetings, and school tests.
Antiperspirants: I bought some Dove Clinical Strength antiperspirant and used that for a while, applying it before bed, or during the day and letting dry under a fan for 15-30min. This would help for normal day stuff, but the moment anything like a date, or a meeting with a boss occurred, it would be like I hadn't done anything. After about two weeks of on-and-off applications, I switched to trying Certain Dri with the results being about the same. The third product I tried was Sweat Block Wipes which were less effective than the previous ones. Not saying these products aren't good, they just weren't effective for me. The last product I tried was Antihydral, I ordered this at the same time as Dermadry and was by far the best. One application with just enough that you could tell there was a layer on there, and let dry for 15-30min under a fan kept my hands dry for days at a time. I only tried this a couple of times before my Dermadry unit came in, so this is my fallback plan if Dermadry doesn't work. I hear from some users the effectiveness of Antihydral can wear off over time, so I have put that on pause while I just do Dermadry.
Medical treatments: I went to a dermatologist and was prescribed Glycopyrrolate. This would help if taken in high doses, but when I got a new dermatologist he highly advised against taking it in the dosages I was. I still have a lot of it left over, and will still take it before a date or social event. In combination with the antiperspirants, this is still fairly effective but requires planning ahead and remembering to take it. I have fairly good medical insurance, but after talking it over with the doctor, the cost of Botox with the side effects and longevity of the treatment made me put it off as a final Hail Mary if all else fails. Finally, I got Dermadry and that's what I'm starting now, and we will see how this works for me.

2023.06.10 20:21 RelationshipInCrisi My boyfriend (M29) and I (F26) are on the rocks after 12 years

Hi all, TL:DR at bottom. For the first time in my life, I'm thinking of breaking off my relationship with my boyfriend of 12 years. We've been together since highschool, hes been my one and only this entire time. We've built a life together, a house, a dog, cats. My entire adult life has been spent with him. But I'm now not so sure if there's a future for us. We've always had problems. Minor spats here and there, but a big one that's been a point of contention since about 3 years in has been the intimacy. I was just finishing University and we had moved to a new city to be closer to my school and closer to his work. This was hard for him even if it benefitted him because it distanced him from his friends, which he had a real hard time with. This resulted in him using nearly all his free time taking the bus back to hang out with his friends. It was rare he'd be at home with me at all and when he was, he was so hungover from the nights previous with his friends that he couldn't do anything outside the apartment. When I got my license and a car, it became him begging me to drive him, "I'll get home sooner to see you" he'd say, which was true... The bus would take him near 3 hours while me driving him was only 40 minutes. But weekend after weekend of this left me feeling uninterested in having sex, and it dipped to about once a week, where it now still is. We've had loads of arguments regarding my sex drive being low, and how he's missing the connection of being with me physically. I've expressed that I feel like he doesn't make time for me other than to have sex, which always blows up into a big fight about how I don't realize how hard he works to keep this relationship going and how hard to tries to make me happy. Which is mostly true, he busts his ass at work and generally works hard. But I don't personally see the effort in regards to the missing emotional intimacy. This issue pops up periodically, maybe two or three big blowouts about it a year. All this to say, I'm not perfect. Not even close. I've had a terribly hard time being assertive and direct about how I feel which is detrimental to the relationship. I have depressive episodes which makes me a bummer to be around, I often let things fester to the boiling point because I fear confrontation. All this makes me far more agreeable to things I shouldn't be which no doubt hasn't been easy for him to navigate.
Honestly, I started having these doubts years ago. But I wanted to work on them and expected this to get better, especially as I had really started vocalizing my qualms but it seems to have only made things worse. But looking back there were a lot of... Inappropriate things I shouldn't have tolerated but was too young and naive to really act on, such as extreme jealous (male friend touched my hand while hiking to help me up a steep ridge, and he went off the handle saying he doesn't trust me,) he was oblivious to when I developed anorexia, he kept asking if I was gay because I would say no to sex, up until today during our not-enough-intimacy fights. It came to the point where I've been agreeing to sex reluctantly and have been getting more or less no sexual pleasure from it for years to keep the peace while I try to get us to work on my issues,, which I think he knows since there's no foreplay, and he knows I don't usually orgasm during it. Today, I had run out for a couple hours with the puppy to do some errands and chores and had just gotten home. I hadn't yet eaten so I was preparing myself something to eat. He asks if I'd like to have sex, to which I say I'm not feeling it, and I'm making lunch. He suggested afterwards, which I wasn't keen on either. So instead he asked if he could touch me while he gets off, which would mean delaying me making food so again I said no. This launched our trip/quazi-annual fight about lack of intimacy. I tried to explain to him that I need to feel more effort and emotional connection from him to be more open to having more sex. I want to feel important and valued, and like he wants to do things with me outside of watching tv. He proceeded to get really mad and defensive because he does put in effort in the form of finances and working on better his job prospects so we can have a better life. (For context, he makes about the same amount as I do yearly, just so no one assumes there's a breadwinner in this circumstance). It divolved into him angry and upset because he felt I wasn't listening to him, and that I'm basically asking him to forfeit one of the things he likes to do in his very small window of leisure time in order to satisfy me. (Which yes he does have a very narrow window of time, he works out from 8-10, his schedule has him working usually 10-7 WFH, and then he usually has some sort of meal prep which would take him from 7-9, if no meal prep then he'd play bass or read work-related things to improve his employable skills, which leaves me from 9-10 for basically TV). It got relatively heated, not yelling or insulting, on topic but both emotional and upset. I suggested that perhaps every second Saturday, we do a date night. We would alternate who plans the date, and we would each plan a date that we think the other would enjoy. He didn't like that idea at all. Instead he wants me to decide what I want to do as a date, plan it, and then ask if he wants to go. He said if I lead by example then he'll get a better understanding of what's expected and be able to do the same. My problem comes from the fact that this isn't a new suggestion, and this isn't the first conversation we've had about it. And I've done that But nothing comes of it and the cycle repeats. At this point, I'm nearly 30. I feel lonely in my own house, and I'm not sure where to go from here. We are tied together in every way, with the house only being owned by us under a year, three pets under 3, all our assets are together, we've only really dated each other... The implications of even considering breaking things off is daunting and life changing, especially since we live in a HCOL area so we'd both suffer tremendously. But I also can't help but think I'm overreacting to something minor and that it'd be a waste to just...throw this all away. I have no frame of reference for whether or not this is pretty normal stuff, and don't really have anyone in my life I can talk to about this.
So... I guess I wanted to know from others in similar positions what youve done and how it's worked out. Please be as blunt with me as possible. If what I've written screams that I'm the problem and that I need to work on xyz, please say so. If I'm the problem I want to work on it and do better.
Sorry for the wall of text but it felt really good to articulate my thoughts as I've not really done it in this much detail ever.
TL:DR: Boyfriend doesn't make time for me so I don't feel the intimate connection I require to be more sexually intimate. At what point is it no longer worth continuing the relationship?

2023.06.10 20:20 RunningOnATreadmill Estranged parents of Tiktok (fromempoweredtoestranged/disneygia/estrangedparents/bestinterestofourkids)

Does anyone else follow this little group of estranged parents on tiktok? Fromestrangedtoempowered, formerly estrangedparentsrus went offline yesterday, curious if anyone knows if they were reported again or chose to take down their account.
All of them are complete nutcases showcasing the mental illness that drove their kids away in public and airing all their dirty laundry.
Bestinterestofourkids, aka "the lemon", revealed herself to be anonymousally198 recently, I don't know if she knows the filter came off mid video while she was stitching someone or if that was on purpose but they are an absolute boot licker, I just can't stand how she aligns with estranged parents after claiming to be estranged herself, and so cowardly to post pro-estrangement stuff with her real face on the anonymousally198 account and then hide behind the lemon to interject herself into other people's drama and promote her tradwife beliefs.
fromempoweredtoestranged/estrangedparentsrus is the one that takes the cake, I can't believe her kids didn't estrange sooner. She claims to have all these rare diseases and a SEVERE TBI (a minor concussion from falling down) that caused symptoms for years and then proceeds to be the least knowledgeable person on medicine on the entirety of tiktok, which is impressive. She says she went through a "healing brain surge" where her "neural pathways were rerouting and bringing up flashing memories" for 2 years which caused her to act up to her kids. Also she claims she wasn't bipolar before her TBI but the doctor agreed that the fall "brought up her genetic predisposition that was under the surface" and now she has bipolar disorder, but its totally new and she was not bipolar before. She's got the medical understanding of a child.
I don't think she realizes how easy her information is to find, so in one tiktok post she's talking about how her "tbi symptoms are acting up again" and how hard that is, and then on her facebook for her "rare immune diseases" she tells a story about how she was just at her neurologist who said she was doing perfect thanks to her rare treatment for her rare diseases! Oh did she tell you how rare her 4-5 diseases are? (sometimes she forgets some depending on where she's posting).
Disneygia is just a piece of work but she's pretty harmless. She has one kid she's close to so I don't know why she even does all this instead of focusing on that kid. Estrangedparents I sometimes feel sorry for but you can see the little glimpses under the surface that I'm sure were only reserved for her kids in private and it's hard not to believe the soft pitiful outside is just a mask for the chaos under it. She says herself in several videos "I'm sick of myself", "I wouldn't want to deal with me either" so she knows something is amiss but doesn't do anything to change.
Anyways, anyone else follow this gaggle of nutjobs? Anyone else I should add to my list to watch?

2023.06.10 20:20 Grand-Earth2594 does google have artificial intelligence?

Introduction: Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept, but a reality that is slowly becoming part of our daily lives. With the rise of big data and machine learning, AI has found its way into various industries, including the tech industry. One of the companies that have embraced AI as part of its operations is Google. Google has long been associated with search engines, but how does it use AI to improve its services? In this article, we will explore whether Google has artificial intelligence.
Google's AI: Google has integrated AI into various aspects of its business model. One of the most noticeable applications of AI on Google is in its search engine algorithms. Google uses machine learning to improve the accuracy and relevance of its search results. Over the years, the search giant has used AI to analyze search queries and understand the intent behind them. With this understanding, Google can deliver results that are more relevant to the user's search terms. This has made Google the go-to search engine for millions of people worldwide.
Another area where Google uses AI is in its voice-controlled assistant, Google Assistant. Google Assistant is an intelligent personal assistant that uses natural language processing and machine learning to understand and respond to voice commands. Google Assistant can perform a variety of tasks, including setting alarms, sending messages, and even playing music. Google's AI-powered assistant is available on various devices, including smartphones, smart speakers, and smart displays. Google Assistant has made life easier for many people by giving them a hands-free way to interact with technology.
Google's AI Ethics: While AI has improved various aspects of our lives, there are concerns about its ethical implications. Google has been at the forefront of addressing these concerns. In 2018, Google created an ethical AI team to ensure that its use of AI conforms to ethical standards. The team is responsible for reviewing the company's AI applications to ensure that they are fair, transparent, and accountable. Google also released a set of AI principles that guide the use of AI in its operations. These principles are centered on three key areas: avoiding harm, being socially beneficial, and being accountable.
Conclusion: Google has embraced AI as a part of its business model, and it has done so in a way that prioritizes ethical behavior. From improving search results to creating a personal assistant, AI has become an integral part of Google's services. However, as AI continues to evolve, so will concerns about its ethical implications. Google's ethical AI team and principles are a positive step towards ensuring that AI is used responsibly and benefits society.

2023.06.10 20:19 0570 DIY Hydro power?

Hello handy folk of DIY!
My wife and I have recently purchased our forever-home, and will (hopefully) be moving into the place around mid-summer. I've always wanted to offset the rising prices of energy by either solar panels or a wind turbine. Solar isn't an option because we're living in a rental home and wind turbines aren't allowed in this urban area due to noise pollution.
But our new home has a fast-flowing creek running through it, which makes 24/7 hydro power the preferred method. But I have no idea of the what's and how's when it comes to DIY power. The future plan would be to disconnect the house's main gas line (heating/cooking) and fully rely on electricity.
I'm looking for information about how to build a reliable hydro power setup. Is a water-wheel more effective than, lets say, a turbine? What's the device called that converts the motion to power, a dynamo, or is it called something else in this setup? A while ago I read about some guy having converted an 3-phase elevator motor to generate power instead of spend it. Is that possible and a good idea?
Anything that'll allow me to get a bit more educated on the hows/whys and do/donts is greatly appreciated!
Disclaimer: The electrics on the house side will be done by a certified electrician, as mandated by law.

2023.06.10 20:18 MediaVsReality The King and the Hero — A Short Story About How The Media Truly Works


PART 1 — The King’s Problem
The King did not know empathy.
If he saw somebody in pain, he felt nothing. If he watched a child cry, he felt nothing. And if he saw an injured bird on the road, he would press the sole of his boot on top of it without a second thought.
This was just as he governed.
The people lacked food, yet the King felt nothing. And did nothing. For in his palace, he had all the food he would ever need.
The people lacked medicine, yet the King felt nothing. And did nothing. For in his palace, he had all the medicine he would ever need.
The people lacked education, yet the King felt nothing. And did nothing. For in his palace, he had all the books and scholars he would ever need.
In his palace built entirely of solid gold, he was the most powerful King in all the land.
But the King had a problem. One thorn in his side. One little nuisance that kept him awake at night.
From nowhere, a man had appeared. His name: Rohe
Rohe spoke atop a platform in the streets to the people. He spoke of the unjust nature of The King’s rule, of the palace made of solid gold and the endless luxuries stored within it.
Rohe blamed the King for the hunger the people had suffered. And he blamed the King for the deaths of brothers, sisters, children, mothers and fathers due to the lack of medicine.
And finally, Rohe told the people to rise up against the King, storm the palace of solid gold and take back control of their food, their medicine and their land.
Worst of all, to the King’s terror, the people had begun to support Rohe. In the streets, Rohe would draw thousands of supporters. “Freedom for the people” they would chant in unison.
The King was utterly furious. How dare these low-born peasants chant such things. How dare these stupid, ignorant and inferior men even consider stealing his rightfully owned riches.
Something had to be done.
Not knowing what to do, he spoke to his 3 most trusted advisors.
The first advisor suggested he have Rohe killed.
The second advisor suggested he have Rohe thrown in jail.
The third advisor, the most cunning and mischievous of the 3, disapproved of the plans of the first 2 advisors. Killing him or throwing him in jail, he explained, would encourage the crowds still further.
Instead, he suggested something different entirely. He suggested they turn the people against Rohe.
“How?” asked the King curiously. “How can we turn the people against him”?
The third advisor adjusted the large, rounded glasses that lay on top his big, crooked nose and grew a mischievous smile. “Why the newspapers, of course.”
PART 2 — The Third Advisor
The lands had hundreds of different newspapers, but only 3 main ones, which were by far the most widely read.
The people believed these newspapers to be run by well-meaning people who aimed to tell them honestly of the goings-on throughout the world.
The truth was different.
While it was made to appear that these newspaper were run independently, they were in fact controlled by the King himself. Whenever the King needed, he could control everything that was written inside one of the 3 main newspapers.
The King granted the cunning third advisor the task of turning the people against Rohe. And so, the third advisor began his research:
To his dismay, he found Rohe to be perfect. A true hero.
Through his research, he discovered several things about Rohe:
- He had a loving wife and two young children.
- He had grown up poor and had managed to create a little bit of wealth through hard work on his farm.
- He was strong, with big, bulging muscles and a handsome face.
- On his farm worked 10 white men and 2 black men, all of whom he treated with great kindness and respect.
- He was rarely at home with his family. He was always working, helping at the local school or in the streets doing his speeches.
Upon finishing his research, a crooked smile crept upon the face of the third advisor. He adjusted his spectacles and muttered to himself.
“This is all I need…”
PART 3 — The Article
RoheThe People’s Hero Or Attention Seeking Conspiracy Theorist?
Rising from an obscure background, Rohe the so-called “Hero” has ballooned in popularity in recent months. Everywhere he goes, commotion follows; drawing crowds of thousands of worshipping fans who hang on every word he says.
He has been reported bellowing his ideology in Lockwood, Brimshore, Farmsdale and even as far as Watershire. It seems as though Rohe is a mastermind at drawing the attention of others. Where does this attention go? Well, to himself of course. With his handsome dark hair and muscular physique, public image is seemingly the fuel that Mr Rohe feeds on. ‘
“He’s come from God! He’s like God himself!” exclaimed one of his fanatic supporters as we interviewed them.
Mr Rohe’s main message seems to be against the King himself; spouting obscure claims such as “The King is keeping all the food for himself while the people starve!”, he cried into a crowd in Lockwood last week. Of course, this isn’t a new line of thought, with other such violent figures as “John the Terrorist” and the now proven liar and fraud Christopher Whittle.
Experts tend to agree that the food hardship some are currently facing is due to a series of unfortunately poor harvests as well as changing whether conditions. We asked the lead food resource advisor in the kingdom for his opinion on the matter. “We’ve heard this all before” he said while holding back a laugh, “Mr Rohe is just parroting the same old conspiracy theories we hear every year”.
While Mr Rohe screams non-stop of the riches of others, his own wealth has been quietly building. Donations from his fanatic supporters have allowed him to purchase a second piece of farmland on top his already wealthy estate. Unsurprisingly, his workforce consists of almost entirely white men with a mere handful of coloured workers throughout his farms.
We travelled to Mr Rohe’s farm and spoke with his wife, who told us “We as almost never see him! He’s constantly on the road. He pops by to see the kids and check on the farm every week or so”. It seems as though it’s difficult to pay close attention to your family when you’re so busy drawing attention to yourself in the streets.
Mr Rohe’s fans seem to admire him deeply, but such adoration can turn nasty. His most extreme supporters have abused, harassed and on one occasion physically assaulted Mr Rohe’s critics. “His fans are relentless”, says well-known critic Johnathon Adams. “The harass me day and night and have even threatened to attack me.
While Mr Rohe does not endorse such violent behaviour, he does not exactly deter it either. He describes the King as “evil” and “corrupt” and once stated that “sometimes the power of the fist is necessary”.
Mr Rohe’s rhetoric seems to attract all kinds of unsavory characters; the aforementioned “Jack the Terrorist” as well as well-known woman beater Joseph Smith have both stated their support for Mr Rohe.
In the end, the key to Mr Rohe’s appeal is also his greatest weakness. He wants to be the man who knows everything and can explain everything. But his arguments are riddled with conspiracy theories and crude distortions of the truth.
Even so, his critics will have a tough time. Mr Rohe’s wave of popularity is unlikely to come crashing down any time soon.
PART 4
A year had passed, and over the months the third advisor wrote countless similar articles and published them in the 3 main newspapers.
To his and the King’s delight, their plan had worked flawlessly.
Support for Mr Rohe began to wane. Many began to accuse Mr Rohe as being a racist. Others claimed he was mistreating his wife. Most began to be see Mr Rohe as somebody not to be taken seriously.
The people started feeling a sense of distrust and dislike towards Mr Rohe deep in their stomachs. They didn’t know exactly why they felt this way, but felt it they did.
Something had switched inside their minds. They began to see everything Mr Rohe did through a negative lens. His previously heroic speeches now seemed shrill and childish. His impressive physique and sharp jaw now seemed vain and self-centred. And his claims about The King and what was really inside his palace made of solid gold now had doubt cast upon them. Some still believed Mr Rohe, some thought him to be exaggerating, most simply threw their hands up in confusion and forgot all about it.
When Mr Rohe made a speech on the streets, many rolled their eyes at his crazy supporters. And with growing frequency, an opposing group of protesters would appear and shout over him. They made claims that Mr Rohe was a racist, and they made jokes about the 2 farms Mr Rohe owned.
The King’s problem had been solved.
The third advisor became one of the King’s closest confidantes and was allowed access to many of the luxuries inside the palace: food, women and anything else he could possibly dream of.
As for the people, their lives steadily got worse and worse. Their food supplies dwindled, medicine became rare to find and the people became sadder, more depressed and more desperate. Despite this, most accepted their situation as “the way life is”, while others blamed God for their misfortune.
One day, another man began to make speeches on the streets against the King. His name: Varios. The People began to call him their “Savior”.
The King passed his pen over to the third advisor. “Ready?”
The third advisor grew a wicked grin.
“Of course”

2023.06.10 20:17 GuyIncognito461 How do you locate a player' s base with armor stands?

In a fit of hubris I boasted that my house on simpvp had gone undiscovered for six months and I didn't know whether to be elated or if the sever was slacking. Two players showed up 20 min later for cake & a tour saying they used my armor stands to locate me (I have a quartet of decorative armor stands in the interior garden, its a historically accurate Roman style house).
How is this accomplished?
I can't say I won't be surprised if I find my base cratered the next time I login but all my wealth is safely tucked away in shulkers within my ender chest so if I lose the house it's no big deal. I can just fly away until I find a more desirable locale which will have updated chunks with 1.9 features anyway.

2023.06.10 20:15 Avieshek I bring you the greatest Copy-Pasta of all time.

Fuck you, u/Spez. You useless piece of shit. You absolute waste of space and air. You uneducated, ignorant, idiotic dumb swine, you're an absolute embarrassment to humanity and all life as a whole. The magnitude of your failure just now is so indescribably massive that one hundred years into the future your name will be used as moniker of evil for heretics. Even if all of humanity put together their collective intelligence there is no conceivable way they could have thought up a way to fuck up on the unimaginable scale you just did. When Jesus died for our sins, he must not have seen the sacrilegious act we just witnessed you performing, because if he did he would have forsaken humanity long ago so that your birth may have never become reality. After you die, your skeleton will be displayed in a museum after being scientifically researched so that all future generations may learn not to generate your bone structure, because every tiny detail anyone may have in common with you degrades them to a useless piece of trash and a burden to society. No wonder your father questioned whether or not your were truly his son, for you'd have to not be a waste of carbon matter for anyone to love you like a family member. Your birth made it so that mankind is worse of in every way you can possibly imagine, and you have made it so that society can never really recover into a state of organization. Everything has forever fallen into a bewildering chaos, through which unrecognizable core, you can only find misfortune. I would say the apocalypse is upon us but this is merely the closest word humans have for the sheer scale of horror that is now reality. You have forever condemned everyone you love and know into an eternal state of suffering, worse than any human concept of hell. You are such an unholy being, that if you step within a one hundred foot radius of a holy place or a place that has ever been deemed important by anyone, your distorted sac religious soul will ruin whatever meaning it ever had beyond repair. You are an idiotic, shiteating, dumbass ape and no one has ever loved you. Rhodes Island would have been better off if you'd never joined us. You are a lying, backstabbing, cowardly useless piece of shit and I hate you with every single part of my being. Even this worlds finest writers and poets from throughout the ages could never hope to accurately describe the scale on which you just fucked up, and how incredibly idiotic you are. Anyone that believes in any religion out there should now realize that they have been wrong this entire time, for if divine beings were real, they would never have allowed a being such as you to stain the earth and this universe. In the future there will be horror stories made about you, with the scariest part of them being that the reader has to realize that such an indescribable monster actually exists, and that the horrific events from the movie have actually taken place in the same world that they live in right now. You are the absolute embodiment of everything that has ever been wrong on this earth, yet you manage to make it so that that is only a small part of the evil that is your being. Never in the history of mankind has there been anyone that could have predicted such an eldrich abomination, but here you are. It's hard to believe that I am seeing such an incredible failure with my own eyes, but here I am, so unfortunately I cannot deny your existence. Even if I did my very best, my vocabulary is not able to describe the sheer magnitude of the idiotic mistake that is you. Even if time travel some day will be invented, there still would not be a single soul willing to go back in time to before this moment to fix history, because having to witness such incredible horrors if they failed would have to many mental and physical drawbacks that not even the bravest soul in history would be willing to risk it. I cannot imagine the pure dread your mother must have felt when she had to carry a baby for nine months and then giving birth to such a wretched monster as you. Not a single word of the incoherent, illogical rambling you may be wanting to do to defend yourself or apologize would ever be able to make up for what you just did. The countries of the world would have wanted to make laws preventing such a terrible event like this from ever happening again, but sadly this is not possible since your horrific actions just now have shattered every form of order this world once had, making concepts such as laws irrelevant. Right from the moment I first set my eyes on you I knew you were an absolute abomination of everything that is wrong with humanity. I was hoping I would have been able to prevent your evil from being released upon this world by tagging along and keeping my eye on you, but it is clear to me now that not even the greatest efforts would have been able to prevent a terrible event in this scale from occurring. You are the worst human being, or even just being in general, that I have ever had the misfortune of witnessing. Events like the infected plague apparently only happened with the goal of teaching humanity to survive such a horrible event as the one you just created, but not even mankind's greatest trials were able to even slightly prepare anyone for the insufferable evil you have just created. If you ever had them, your children would be preemptively killed to protect this universe from the possibility of anyone in your bloodline being even half as bad as you are, except you will never be able to have children, because not a single human being will ever want to come within a hundred mile radius of you and anything you have ever touched. You are a colossal disappointment not only to your parents, but to your ancestors and entire bloodline. The disgusting mistake that you have just made is so incredibly terrible that everyone who would ever be to hear about it would spontaneously feel an indescribable mixture of immense anger, fear and anxiety that emotionally and physically they would never truly be the same ever again. The sheer scale of your mistake, if ever to be materialized, would not only surpass the size of the world, but it would reach far beyond the edges of the known, and almost certainly the unknown universe. I could sit here and write paragraphs, nay, books describing your immense failure, yet even if I were to dedicate my life to describing the reality of what has just gone down here, and I would spend every moment of it until my heart stops beating working as hard and efficiently as possible, yet there is not even a snowballs chance in hell that I would be able to come close to transcribing the absolute shitshow you have just released upon the world. You are an irresponsible, idiotic, disgusting, unloved, horrible excuse for a living being who's soul contains less humanity than every ginger in history combined. The absolute disgust I feel when thinking about anything that has even a slight resemblance to anything that might have to do with you and your unholy actions is so incredibly great that when I am honest about it I think that even I do not posses a consciousness great enough to comprehend my own feelings about it. When people of Columbia fought to break free from Lungmen, countless soldiers fought and lost their lives in favor of a chance at a better future for their children, they did not give their lives to have you fuck the world up beyond repair to the degree that you are doing right now. Honestly, even when technology advances and studies on the subject become more and more accurate, I do not think humanity will ever truly be able to understand what your failure actually means for the universe. My hate for you and everything you stand for is so much deeper than the depths of Shambala that you could probably take the entire Lungmen population down there and back up around twenty million times before you would have sunk to the end of my hate, and honestly, I do not want to exaggerate, but I think that that insult was low balling it such a massive amount that all mountains in this world combined would not be able to stack up to this imprecise judgement in light of the fact that when being honest, my hate is almost certainly bottomless. There is no one in this world that has ever loved you, and especially after what you just did, no one will ever love you in the future either. There is no hope that your idiotic behavior and especially your crooked soul will ever change for the better, and in fact quite the opposite might be true. By making the mistake that you just did, you have shown me that you are so incredibly hopeless that you will only devolve into a more idiotic and wretched creature than you already are. The only possible way in which your future would be brighter than the black hole your existence currently is would exclusively be because there is absolutely no conceivable way that you would even be able to sink lower than the pathetic place your current failure has put you in. -u/ultraviolet1107

2023.06.10 20:13 deschutesrapids Financial freedom courses being marketed as empowering women

Just wanted to pop in to vent a frustration. I've noticed a ton of online courses revolving around investing and teaching financial literacy skills to women. They always start off with other women sharing how they turned their life around. They make you feel like they understand you and understand how scary financial growth can be - but as feminists they're willing to help! It always boils down the same;
"Why are we sharing this information with you?"
"Well, money is a powerful tool and women historically haven't been taught financial literacy. We want to change that to build an equitable future! We need to have equal influence in politics and maintain our human rights and financial influence is such an important tool. Now that we've wasted an hour of your time with basic information, buy our course for $4000."
Sure, you're free to sell a course but don't position yourselves as feminists and obfuscate the fact you're trying to sell someone something. It's disgusting and anti-feminist. You're literally taking advantage of a group you acknowledge has been under served for your own financial gain.
Sure, people should probably guess that courses or webinars are never free but when you say your motivation is to change the landscape of tomorrow united under feminism, people may give you the benefit of the doubt that you're willing to share for that mission and not for your own financial benefit. It's deceptive, shady at best.

2023.06.10 20:12 AggressiveCampaign24 Anyone know how to simplify the UI and functionality for TU7000 from deep menu?

Hi everyone. I work at a college on the AV-side of things. Full disclosure: I am not a Tizen Developer or very adept with the back-end beyond some basic configuration within the deep menu (default to HDMI upon startup, etc).
During Covid the supply chain was quite volatile, and there were limited options for purchasing displays within the timeframe required for deliverables, so we went with a bunch of in-stock Samsung 55TU7000 for mobile carts. In hindsight, I would've chosen a simpler 4K conference display like the Dell C5519Q and called it a day, but they were unavailable, and it is a moot point.
My issue is that I cannot seem to find any clear documentation on how to 'hack' the TV to simplify the UI, limit controls to on/ off, switching between HDMI 1 and 2, and adjusting volume beyond a few YouTube videos, and want to avoid the development route if possible. Samsung Tech Support has not provided any solution and perhaps this is out of their customer service ballpark. There are currently two sources: a Mac Mini (HDMI 1) and an Apple TV (HDMI 2).
Does anyone know of any good guides for the deep menu in order to simplify the user experience? It seems like hospitality mode may be a promising option. Beyond that, a simple serial button controller is also under consideration, but in an ideal world, hoping it can be addressed via the deep menu. The SmartTV settings drive users nuts.
Sincerely appreciate any advice or expertise from this forum! Cheers.

2023.06.10 20:11 treddson Dual boot Windows and Pop!_OS

I have a gaming laptop that already has Pop!_OS installed. I would like to be able to play games that are only available on Windows while still being able to use Pop!_OS for programming and Linux work.
I know that I need to dual boot but I have no idea how to do this. I've searched a bit but haven't found a guide on dual booting Windows on a machine that already has Pop!_OS. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

2023.06.10 20:11 chiraltoad Linear actuator with 6' travel and 1mm precision

I'm considering DIY replicating this Tigerstop positioning device.
It seems to me that this is a relatively simple machine, and because I need it to be much lighter duty, I could make this a lot cheaper as well.
I'm thinking that using a leadscrew actuated by stepper motor might be the easiest way, though I believe the tigerstop uses a belt drive.
The leadscrew on the McMaster motor is much too short, so I was thinking I could add on to it, or replace it. But then I thought, just get a stepper motor and couple a long lead screw to it, I don't really need a pre-made one.
I'm rather fuzzy on the control method though. I understand I need a driver and a controller, the controller tells the driver what to do, and the driver makes it happen. How do I interface between my operator and the controller?
Ideally I am dumping spreadsheets with distance values in them, and the lead screw turns to the correct position after the press of a button, advancing to the next entry.
I have some notion of how to do this, but any tips or help getting me going in the right direction would be much appreciated.
And, I know this is an Arduino forum, but I'm not necessarily wedded to Arduino for this project.

2023.06.10 20:11 SnarlingDuckling Ex moving out next week, the slow removal of items has me more upset than I thought it would

Basically just coming here to get some things off my chest. We broke up about 10 months ago and continued living together. There was no sign this was going to change until his car broke down. He ended up buying a brand new truck and popped it on me that he can’t afford helping with rent and paying for his new truck. At first I was happy that finally there was a push to get some closure for both of us. He said he’d be out the following week, but I asked him to stay a couple more because I had told him when we first broke up that I need a months notice and wasn’t financially capable to carry the house without it. Well, that couple weeks is almost up. He’s been taking small loads of his stuff daily for the past week. Seeing the house we shared being emptied is overwhelming. Going through boxes and selecting what we’re going to each keep is overwhelming. I cry in waves and try to hide it. I didn’t expect to have this reaction to be honest. I thought I had come to terms with everything.
I’m just sad. I’m going to miss him, if not just him but the company as well. I’m stressed having to do this on my own now. Financially, mentally, physically….
We have two dogs and we are both okay with splitting time with them. I’m so scared for when he has them….it’s gonna feel even worse and lonely. They also make me feel more protected and I have never lived on my own. Nevermind having a whole house.
We had an emotional talk last night because I kinda broke down and couldn’t hide it anymore. It hurt even more because I had been asking for this conversation since we broke up and he didn’t open up even when we were trying to repair it. It’s just too little too late and it hurt way more.
This house feels like a hell hole and I don’t know what I’m going to do to erase all the memories here.
If anyone has any advice on how to move forward without feeling debilitated please let me know
