My only complaint of the game I have is pacing. I found the routes between fights to be boring, and the weird 2D sections never really provided much else.

And another broad generalization goes to you.

Women aren't idiots. They know what bears are. They also know what men are which is precisely why they are mostly answering the way they do.

"Women don't know bears can kill you because they had fluffy teddy bears growing up" is what you sound like.

What? First off, boys also have teddy bears. Most people's experiences with bears are precisely what you described as solely women's experiences.

Like what are bears in men's daily experience? I'll isolate down to North America to keep things simple.

Most men's experience with bears is identical to that of women's. Most men live in suburbs or cities, and haven't even seen a bear outside of a zoo. But most men and women know that bears are dangerous wild animals because...we have been taught that.

I don't get why women are so infantalized by men. Now I'm just imagining a father walking up to his son, telling his daughter to leave the room then telling him "bears are dangerous son, you never wanna be close to one and here's what you do to stay safe, also do NOT tell your sister this, she's a girl and doesn't need to know this because one day she'll have a husband that will protect her from the bears"

People who also just don't want to be called slurs by toxic team mates

Taking chances is my guess. Each weapon is a "life experience"

The basic pistol is your normal day to day. The shotgun is your night out.

But that gauss cannon, or rocket launcher are those big risk moments like asking that person out, or going to that once in a lifetime concert.

"I can't go to that concert I have work tomorrow" "But it's literally their retirement tour and you love them!" "I know but...I really need this job"

Yeah it's the responsible decision to go into work, but you're going to regret missing a day of work way less compared to missing that once in a lifetime event.

If you're saving money it's fiscally responsible not to spend it, but your peak years of health are going to be wasted "saving for your future" when you're 60 and your body isn't as capable as it used to be. So you're ruining the overall "game"(life) by trying to conserve and inducing more struggle onto yourself just to save an extra buck here and there.

Patient gaming wins again

It depends on your insurance iirc.

My insurance has a deductible which means I need to spend $2.5k before they will fully pay for things like meds, or visits. This makes all medication notably expensive. My ADHD meds went from $8.00ish to $210 just because my plan switched. I put aside $2.5k for this purpose though. It fucking sucks and getting a better plan just simply costs 2-3x's as much.

I feel like they should try a few different themes/formats per season to try and breakup the burnout that seems rather evident.

Unique worlds via data packs (technically still vanilla) challenges that inspire creative builds. Or just other unique aesthetics.

Maybe limiting things like the nether roof access to have more nether themed builds

Creativity either through restrictions or getting a new lense via shaders/resource packs (bare bones).

Idk but at this point I feel like the formula has ran its course with a lot of the hermits. Minecraft content in general has kind of bottomed out with long term series too on an algorithmic level.

One idea I kinda had was limiting the world size to something rather small and encouraging people to live in a "communal" way and less of their solo ways. That way real estate is less and the bases are forced to be close together which would encourage some potentially cool collaborations with each other.

To be fair the price includes 10 or so original indie titles which if you go by the store front's average game pricetag ($5.36) that accounts for $53.6 worth. (And that's really not fair to some of the games I've played)

Correction: The first season of games that come with the device total out at 24 so going off of that original 5.36 average you'd actually have about $129 give or take worth of game value, leaving the actual Playdate device at a $71 purchase for the device itself.

I have a playdate and have seen this sentiment a lot.

Imo the charging mechanic would ruin the usability of the crank in many of the games. Some games require rapid cranking and having a charging mechanic would not only be another point of future mechanical failure, but also slow it down too much.

It's also worth noting that the device also has a gyroscope so it can detect tilting, shaking etc as well. It's very versatile for it's size. It's NOT an emulator (though it can run an emulator), it's a fully original handheld console.

$200 is a fair price because that includes something like 15-20 games. Every game for the playdate is original and hasn't existed before it came out.

I tried Atomoxetine and didn't like it, I don't recall any major mental benefits (maybe my motivation was non existent) but I did recall MAJOR sex related side effects that absolutely sucked.

 

It went pretty well! There's maybe some small red flags but I'm in Florida so I didn't expect smooth sailing.

But all-in-all I got the informed consent form, require a note from my psychiatrist, and need to do some baseline hormone tests before I begin.

But if all goes well I will start hormone therapy in 6 weeks!!!!

 

I can't wait!!! I really hope everything goes smoothly and I can get started on HRT ASAP

 

 

I looked up other fixes and it involves going to the bios and changing a setting from DRD to XHCI but my bios was set to XHCI by default. Is there any other fixes anyone here knows about?

 

I get the general gist, like email different instances can communicate with each other but beyond that I'm lost.

I'm sorry if this has been asked 1,000 times lol

Edit: Thanks for the answers this makes more sense now :)
