I own quite a few books this way. I read first, but then enjoy my rereads via audio books on drives, runs, etc. Often big epic fantasy novels that you discover more on a reread.
I have a slightly different version of this. I get sneezing fits when too full. It's genetic and happens to most people on one side of my family. Thanksgiving is always fun.
I'm going to use this as an excuse to go back and play Hades 1. I bought and binged it when it first released EA, and never went back to play the released version.
As much as I get this sentiment, I chose my profession in part because I like learning and my area requires learning new stuff all the time to stay relevant. The learning part of work is the part I enjoy and look forward to.
Communication is a two way street. It's both about the message the sender is trying to convey, but also the way the receiver interprets it. As a (mostly) neurotypical thinker, this is even hard for many of us to get right.
An example for clarity is the response your getting in the comments to your friends comments. Various people are disagreeing and agreeing to different levels. Conversation is navigating the complicated dynamics to as the sender, sending your message in a way the receiver will get the impression you are trying to give, and as a receiver, trying to understand the intent of the message the sender is trying to show.
There aren't many hard or fast rules. In different online communities, different styles and patterns can conotate different things. There are patterns and styles I use here on Lemmy for example, I would never use in a sports online community because they would be interpreted differently there.
My advice is don't beat yourself up about it. If you're not getting the type of interactions you're expecting in a particular community, that might be the time to ask for feedback or see if your communication style is different than the local group there. But the ephemeral nature of these online conversations make it the perfect place to experiment and find a communication style that works for you and gets the response from others you are looking for.
Well more from being in the air than just the scanner I believe!
I have a PSN account. I can't ethically support this move that locked so many players out 4 months after buying a game. So I won't be buying until at minimum a solution is in place for all those users, but probably not even then.
As a spouse of someone who suffers from ARFID, I just wanted to pass along that there are those out there who understand the extreme suffering it can cause and recognize that the condition is not a choice you are making. She went most of her life undiagnosed and getting the diagnosis was so incredibly validating because it showed what she was experiencing was beyond her control. We wish you the best.
Seriously. I've never had a game pump adrenaline for me like Tarkov. Combined with the fact that over hundreds of hours of play in a wipe, I still feel like I'm making long term progress in every raid is just addicting. The core gameplay loop is just fun.
Give me a good dev who respect their players who can give me these things and there goes years of my gaming time.
I love Roguelikes. I love FPS. Tarkov is my favorite game, but damn does it squander it's potential.
The distribution itself shouldn't cause a large drop in the per share price since the market is aware of this coming and would view it as a high probability of happening based on current prices. Otherwise this would be the easiest short term short ever.
Wealth and GDP are measuring different things, even though both are measured in dollars. It's a bit of a weird comparison for that reason, but still shows ridiculous levels of inequality.
Wealth is how much money you have right now. GDP is how much value the country generates in a given year.
So wealth is kinda like how much you have in the bank, while GDP is closer to how much money is changing hands in a country over a given year. There's a common joke about GDP - if two people paid each other $100 to eat a pile of shit, GDP went up $200 even though no real value was generated. In this example, neither of their wealth changed.
Its too jarring in the middle for users of Dark Mode. I've used your app and paid for premium on reddit. I haven't here because the price to value isn't there compared to other options at its current price point. I've been using your lemmy app since it released but this ad change had me immediately switch.
He mentions looking into contractors which is basically exactly this. Going through a 3rd party can make that process easier for short term needs, which is what he is saying the current situation might be.
Your first comment made it sound like they are hitting you on purpose. This comment makes it sound more like the infrastructure is not conductive to cycling and therefore it's dangerous to cycle in your area. I grew up in northeast Cincinnati and am an avid cyclist, and the second comment lines up with my experience while the first, that reads as if people are actively trying to hit you, doesn't line up with my experience. I think that is why you are getting down voted.
The article mentions he called 911 to surrender about an hour or two after it started.
