2023.06.03 22:34 N0rthEastS0uthWest Tips for Improving Discernment?
Hello, all, I'm still very new to the world of spirits and communication with spirits.
I feel that is is pretty easy for me to connect with and communicate with entities but it's almost impossible for me to determine who I'm actually talking to in most cases. I also very frequently have random names pop into my head and it's difficult for me to tell if that particular entity is trying to get my attention or if it is just a random thought. So many people talk about being able to tell by sensing the energy of the spirit but that is another area where I struggle; it's rare for me to sense any energy when I'm communicating. This has caused me concern that I'm actually interacting with my own thoughts, though I have had a few times where different entities have been able to send me external signs that our connection was successful.
I know meditation is what is recommended the most and I do meditate quite a bit. I try to spend at least a few minutes each day in meditation, though I know this isn't a lot. It's just what I'm able to manage with my responsibilities and ADHD.
Are there other tips and tricks that could be offered? One thing I do when I can is utilize Tarot to help figure out who I'm talking to and what exactly they're trying to tell me but I can't carry my cards around with me everywhere. Perhaps getting more familiar with my pendulum would help as well?
Not important to the meat of the post but, just to share: last night I felt that two separate entities were trying to talk to me at the same time but I couldn't tell who was who, which I think was part of the point. They are two spirits I feel I can trust and what I was getting from the interaction is that they were offering me to work with them in tandem to help me improve my discernment. Questions were coming to mind such as "How do you feel in this moment?" and "Do you think you're currently communicating with a spirit?" Whether it was my own thoughts or actual communication, I responded that I couldn't be sure. After that, many different names came to mind and then I fell asleep.
Another recent experience that I feel like sharing is that I attempted yesterday to connect with the angel Uriel. I don't recall exactly why I chose him specifically other than i believe he may be my teaching angel, I think I may help felt his presence before, and I was really stressed out and just wanted someone to hear me. I started feeling a tad bit nauseous and had the thought come to mind that a spirit I've been working with for the last year is lying to me, to which I responded that it feels like everyone is lying to me. I was outside when I reached out to him and, as I walked back to the house, I had a feeling like something much, much larger than myself was watching me and the sense that whatever it was was somewhat playfully referring to me as "Thumbelina". But I have no way of knowing whether I actually made contact with Uriel or if this is just my imagination.
Sorry for the overshare but I thought maybe giving some examples of my experiences would help answer my questions.
Thanks, folks!

2023.06.03 22:33 wetfartxox Normal?
 | My 8 year old male rescue corn snake has been displaying unusual behaviour. I've had him since Christmas, he shed about a month ago, I last fed him 2 days ago. His temp and humidity are normal. This is my first snake, so I don't know if this is normal behaviour, but he has been doing laps of himself for at least 10 minutes now, (I included a pic), and has not stopped. At first, i thought he may have been stuck in the branch that I had with him, so I removed it, but that didn't stop him. I offered my hand to see if he wanted held, but he didn't bat an eye. I'm aware that it is around that time of the year, but better safe than sorry 😅 submitted by wetfartxox to cornsnakes [link] [comments] |

2023.06.03 22:33 Dubwars Guidance for a MSFS Newbie
TL:DR A lot of newbie questions that I'm hoping some of the community and give me guidance on. If you'd rather not answer questions that may have been asked in this sub-reddit before, feel free to stop reading now and move along. I understand.
PREFACE: I have years in sim racing (cars) but have always had interest in flight simulation. I do not have have real world or sim flight experience, but have watched and read a bunch of content over the years. I've never dived into the hobby though as from what I saw, MSFS did not really have any sort of objectives, missions, etc. and I did not know how long it would keep my attention.
QUESTIONS: Below are some questions I have before committing to this. Feel free to pick and choose any/all you'd like to answer.

PREFACE: I have years in sim racing (cars) but have always had interest in flight simulation.

I've never dived into the hobby though as from what I saw, MSFS did not really have any sort of objectives, missions, etc. and I did not know how long it would keep my attention.
QUESTIONS: Below are some questions I have before committing to this. Feel free to pick and choose any/all you'd like to answer.
- MSFS caught my attention recently when I came across NeoFly. This seems to be the addition to MSFS I felt it was lacking, giving you tasks, objectives, and basically a career mode. Is there anything about NeoFly that I'm not seeing here? Can anyone suggest a good website, YouTube creator, etc. that walks you through NeoFly?
- Like auto sim racing, I'm learning there are a bunch of add-ons for MSFS. Is there a general consensus of the top 3, 5, or 10 add-ons that are not just a suggestion but a must that improves the MSFS experience?
- How much, if all, does MSFS have built-in training and education? I don't feel as it has a ton, but could be wrong. With that said, does anyone have any suggestions on books, YouTube creators, etc. that provide great lessons/tutorials for MSFS, or even better, lessons specific to individual aircraft? Again, I'm going into this green, and will need to learn everything which I'm well aware I'm not going to sit down and just be off and flying immediately.
- Hardware: I know this will most likely bring a lot of opinions out, but I'm hoping I can have some overall good suggestions. I'm not the type to buy the "beginner hardware" for anything I have a passion about. I'm also not looking to build a 'as close to real life' sim cockpit. I've looked over the offerings from Thrustmaster, Honeycomb, Yoko, etc. Yoko sounds to have really good reviews, but I don't think I'm going to jump that high immediately. That being said, I'm currently focused on Honeycomb's Alpha Flight Controls XPC along with their Bravo Quadrant, and would like to hear if I'm missing something that could be better in that price range. Note: I'll be playing on PC only
2023.06.03 22:33 Kubsterrb17 Can Pendragon's black-jack style roll resolution mechanic be improved in any way?
I know that King Arthur's Pendragon black-jack roll mechanic is one of the slickest, most streamlined dice resolution mechanics, liked by many. I wanted to implement it in my "final fantasy-esque" RPG that I am currently working on. It supposed to have class system and tactical combat, but in newer, less matemathic aproach, more like Modiphus Conan2d20 sytem, than DND 5E/Pathfinder
General idea: Roll is single D20 roll under, but you want to go as high as you can without going over your TN.
In opposed rolls, we go under our TN and hope our adversary over-rolls his/hers. If he or she does not, we compare the scores - We want to be under our TN but have a higher score than the opponent.
Critical Sucess always beats normal Sucess. A tie is always resolved in favor of the player characters. If we roll under our TN but the opponent still beats us, we get partial success. ( i.e. We may not be able to pickpocket a guard but at least we do not get caught).
Now - it's really solid and I know why It appeals to so many. But for me, it lacks some kind of tools for and/or the possibility of manipulating the roll.
For example: What if my player is a really good roleplayer, and he gives a passionate speech to the king? How can I reward that?
I had 3 ideas:
Thank you kindly for your time.

General idea: Roll is single D20 roll under, but you want to go as high as you can without going over your TN.
- Stats go from 6-14, with 8 being kinda middle beginner stat.
- Ability scores go from 0-5
- These 2 things added give us our target number.
- Scoring our TN exactly gives us critical success. 20 is a hard cap, and it is always a critical failure.

I had 3 ideas:
- Moddifers/penalties added by DM to the TN, going from -3 to+3. It's very easy to calculate gives DM some freedom for punishing shenanigans or rewarding creative solutions at the table. But it cannot be used, if characters TN is already 19. (But honestly idk if characters 95% of sucess probability need any more help)
- Adventage or disatvantage dices: Honestly I am not sure how to implement them here or if it's even possible. With normal roll-under system it's easy: Disatrvatange is rolling 2 keep higher, Advantage is roll-under keep lower. But here, i'm not so sure. Maybe it can go accordingly, but just closefurhter from the TN?
- I was thinking about some possiblity of meta currency for players, something akin to luck or fate points, for which players could buy D4's to try to "push" their scores, like in real black jack card game. There is of coure risk in going over TN if player is unlucky. I suppose player could buy more than one D4 to support their roll, maybe with cap being +3d4 per roll?
Thank you kindly for your time.
2023.06.03 22:33 FUMBLESTEIN FK8 in heavy traffic
Starting a new job later this month and considering getting an FK8 to commute in, it will be 70 miles round trip of Southern California traffic. Anyone have a similar commute, how does it do? Any complaints, improvements or things to note? (It will have 18’s put on within the first month so that’s already covered)
I use to commute in an ap2 s2000, so I’m well aware of the annoyance of manual in traffic which isn’t my concern.
I sold my FBO e85 Golf R last year and wished I had just gotten a CTR instead, and now I’m here. Current commute is 3 miles and my only car is a GX460 that gets 11mpg, going to have to make my decision here pretty quickly. Is a Type R the right decision here?

2023.06.03 22:33 eenvtr Another Pig Butcher Crypto Romance Scam
** I know about not falling for the recovery scams, I've been reading this reddit for the past few days coping. Will add a TLDR at the bottom, I just really want to let this out. Maybe my rambling might show patterns to people that they have seen, and they won't be subject to falling for the same thing and they may snap out of it.**
Hi all,
I already know I was stupid, I ignored many red flags blatantly. I was recently affected by a crypto romance scammer. Story as follows:
I have not dated in almost a decade, I closed my heart off to a lot of people and lost a lot of friends on the way. I have always been an introvert, but finally broke out of my depression somewhat a year and a half ago. I began self improvement, and feel a lot better now than I did 5 years ago. I live alone, I'm lonely, and just turned 27. I have my own apartment, and felt it was time to start working on different parts of life, instead of doing everything alone.
I decided to give online dating a try. I matched with a girl on Tinder, and I was the first to initiate. I messaged her, and she did not reply for a day. There were a couple sentences exchanged back and forth, and she asked for my phone number. I ended up providing it to her, since my friends always recommended to get someone off Tinder as soon as possible.
She messaged me on my phone, and we had a few back and forths on many different topics and ideas. It seemed surreal since it felt like I was clicking with her very well. This usually does not happen at all with people I meet in real life, and she was leading multiple parts of the conversations, which did not raise a flag to me. She mentioned that English was not her first language, I was ok with that because the English was written well, a few hic ups here and there in the conversation, but I chalked it up to a language barrier. It did not seem to be translated at all, she was even using well structured sentences with unique words that you do not hear day to day, which I assumed would not be translated in the normal sense (think obfuscate).
Some of the conversations we had was what we did for work, what our hobbies and goals are. Our taste in music, movies, recommendations. It seemed so normal first for a conversation. On the end of the second day, she wanted me to download telegram which was a possible red flag, I never trusted google hangouts, telegram, whatsapp due to scammers being known for using these applications. I was a bit hesitant but she wanted me to download it so she could talk to me while she was at work. I eventually agreed, we said our good nights and I went to sleep. I generally keep my guard up with people (why are they being so nice, what do they want from me?), but I ended up going with it since I was genuinely enjoying this person.
I added her on Telegram, and we were continuing our conversations from the day earlier. Said our good mornings, and talked more about goals and aspirations. She would talk to me about her childhood, and I would talk about mine. We eventually began exchanging pictures (nothing sexual), voice recordings, jokes. We talked for a week, and she began talking about how she uses AI for short term node investing to make money on the side while she was working and invested at times the AI told her to. I said cool, and continued with our normal conversations. Eventually I was beginning to get loved bombed and sweet talked to over the course of a couple weeks. I was feeling great about myself, and confident. I felt like I had a connection to them, I was mentioning her to friends and family about how awesome she was. About a week and a half in, she said she had to travel for a few weeks to a different part of the USA. Another red flag yay. Probably 5 so far?
I was super skeptical, but not enough. This girl intrigued me so much. I was sick for about a week, and she was constantly checking up on me and reminding me to eat, sleep, take my temperature, and to get up every few hours to stretch. None of my family or friends do this for me, which made me fall for her a bit more. She made me reconcile with my parents too, and my relationship with my parents is a lot better than before. She did mention before that she was very family oriented, and it opened my eyes that I should leave the past in the past, and embrace the future.
We had a heart to heart with one another one night, I don't want to go into details but she explained why she was single and why I was single, and this kind of sealed it for me I think. LOOOOTS of love bombing after this. One of the patterns I was noticing through the weeks is that she would always message me at 10 am, the good mornings and the like, and go to bed at 12 am (shift change anyone?). Never any messages before or after this time. She also facetimed me, had a quick conversation, but she claimed the connection was bad, so we ended it after a few minutes. I read this was a common thing after I got scammed. She was a real girl, I've heard her and seen her, but she is most likely just part of an operation. I even reverse image searched her on multiple different platforms, no results showed up. Insane.
She began talking talking about her crypto again, and wanted me to join her! I did not care about the money as much as I was caring about her. I wanted to start for her. She showed me how to to buy crypto, and how to put it in my wallet, and how to set up 2FA to transfer the crypto to said wallet. Seems normal so far, and we continued the next day. One of the things I noticed was that I was getting the drive to learn back, I dislike my current job. It's monotonous, boring, tedious, and this was something new! She got me back into reading, watching shows, improving on myself in different aspects of life.
The next day, she showed me how to use the browser in the wallet, to start staking crypto, and make passive income. I started with 200 USDT. I am kind of broke right now since everything costs so much and I make an OK wage. This could lead to financial freedom I thought. The website itself was fishy, poorly done, numbers had floats attached to them. Did not look professional, but I felt like I was in love and I could trust her. I know it's stupid loving someone you have not met.
After a few days of staking, I withdrew the money into my wallet. Looked legit! I made money. Not that much, but it was something. She mentioned to me how much money this makes compared to a 401k or roth IRA, seemed believable. She then showed me what app she uses for the short node investing. It was not on the app store, so I had to follow a link to download it (yay another red flag I saw and ignored on purpose). I set the app up and we said our good nights.
During the next day, she began walking me through how to use the app, how to input money from the wallet I have, including my staking if I wanted to. She sent me 20 dollars in ETH for the gas fees to send the USDT. Made me believe in her even more. I inputted about 250 USDT into the app, and we began short term node investing. I made about 100 dollars that day. Felt good. Yes I know it's fake.
The next day were serious red flags. She told me how her coworker withdrew his full 401k (40k USD) and put it into staking and short node investing, and has made a few hundred thousand dollars. I was intrigued, and she said I should do that too. I want to thank my job and bank for only letting me withdraw half, and loaning it against myself, and not letting me do a hardship withdrawal. I withdrew about 6000 USD from my 401k, sent it to my bank, and wired it to crypto. After waiting a few days for it to clear, I put it into my wallet, and into the fake exchange for short node investing.
I made about 44000 in fake money over the course of a couple days. She mentioned there's a new member reward, if I put in 10k USD in my account I get another 800 USDT free for being a new member. I mentioned that I can't, rent would be in a few days, and I needed the money for rent. She assured me that I should let my money work for me, and that I can withdraw it when I needed to for rent. Trusting this, I put my rent money into the fake exchange expecting to be able to withdraw it later since I was able to withdraw money before.
I got to about 8.5k USDT, 1.5k away for the free 800 USDT from the rewards program. She recommended me to apply for bank loans (another red flag LOL, but I was blinded). I never really built my credit at all before, only car loans and a credit card that I missed 2 20 dollar payments 4 years ago. My credit is low (640) so I could not loan out 50k from the bank like she wanted me to. The best I could do was 1.5k. I ended up getting my first credit card in a long time, it has a 500 dollar max currently and unsecured.
I did not end up taking out the loan (not yet), and I did not using any of the credit card to buy crypto with. This is when I began to believe something was wrong. There's no way I am getting scammed! She was messaging me and talking to me 15 hours a day, right? That's a lot of time investment.
Rent day was coming up, I went to withdraw my rent money from the fake exchange. I got an email stating I have to pay 5k in fees to withdraw the money because I won a lot of money.
I talked to her about it, inquiring why I could not just take out a portion of my principle I put in, without touching any of the winnings. She claimed it was for tax purposes and forgot to tell me. I half believed her. I talked to 2 friends seeing if I could loan out 5k from them. One said they will talk to their wife first, I respected their decision. They ended up saying no, I said thank you and I understood.
The other friend said sure, since I payed back a loan another friend gave me timely in the past. He tried to send it to me via cashapp, but was told to contact his bank first. I am very happy that happened. I said don't worry about it, I'll find out what to do. Didn't mention it the next day since I was still thinking.
Rent day came, and I took that 1500 loan to pay most of my rent. I still had a little extra money in my account to cover the full rent. Paying 500 dollars back a month on this loan to get it done asap, since my credit history isn't good, and I don't want to pay 30% interest. I'd rather loan from a bank if I can than mess up a friendship due to my stupidity.
I didn't talk to the girl for almost a full day, she kept trying to check up on me asking if I was ok and sending me voice messages. I went to a bar with friends and had a great time. I have 30 dollars in my bank account now, I get payed next week, I have a 1500 dollar loan with 30% interest I have to pay back, and 6000 dollars in a 401k I have to pay off that comes out of each paycheck. I stopped contributing to it so I don't feel as underwater.
I began responding to her, her messages weren't as lovable or frequent anymore (most likely because I mentioned that I am no longer interested in short node investing unless I get a portion of my principle back), maybe good morning and good night, and something short in the day. I used to reread our full conversations from the days when we began first talking, it just felt like bliss to me. Now I hardly want to talk to her, I downloaded and exported our conversation history from Telegram, but keeping her there just incase I can use something against it. Most likely won't be able to.
A friend mentioned to me he saw her account on another dating app, and they reported it. Different name, only a few miles away when she's supposed to be somewhere else. I told one friend about this story so far. They are very close to me and we had a heart to heart about it.
The most painful part about this is that I told my mom and sister about how I met someone new that really clicked with me, and I was finally happy. I struggled for so many years and they noticed my demeaner changed and were super joyous about it. Not only that, I don't miss the money I lost (~8.7k dollars), I miss the person that I thought I was building a relationship with that I would eventually meet and love. I was on Tinder for 3 months before I found her, every conversation was so dry and uninteresting to me until I met her. I only talked to her for about a month so maybe that is why I was able to break the spell early.
I feel free right now. I thought I would go back to being depressed, but I feel like I gained more than lost from this. I learned how to be a bit more sociable with people, what to look out for in scams (this one was way different than any I have ever experienced), to talk to people close to me about their thoughts of what's going on. I kept it all in. My relationship with my family is better because of her, but I will miss the person I thought that was for me. They really are intelligent in what they do, it's crazy. Maybe I found out that I am a hopeless romantic when my guard is not up. Which sucks, but it is what it is.
I will try to pay back all my loans asap, it's not too much money, but I will have to live more frugally at the moment. I'm not ready to let me mom or sister know, but I told one of my friends so far that won't joke about it. I am also happy I did not rope any friends into this. I needed time to clear my thoughts and do what I could to make this right.
Whenever I see her pictures online, I feel melancholic. I report her to the apps but it forces me to see what could have been if it was real. I have also submitted a case to the FBI, I don't know what else I should send to.
Thanks for reading if any of you did, I rambled a lot.
TLDR:
- Haven't dated in years, met chick on dating app and I was first to initiate
- She asked for my number, I gave it to her
- Quickly moved onto Telegram
- Lovebombed for weeks
- Mentions she's an investor in crypto, and wanted me to join her
- Blinded by fake love, lose 8.7k USD to the scam, everything in my bank account + half my 401k
- Had to take a loan out from a bank to pay rent
- Will miss the person I thought was for me more than the money lost itself
- Learned more from this than lost in my opinion. Thank god I'm already poor. It could have been much worse if my credit was good. Now I am on the path to building my credit for the first time in years.
- I'm aware that I was most likely talking to different people over Telegram, and she would send the recordings herself or facetimes.

I generally keep my guard up with people (why are they being so nice, what do they want from me?), but I ended up going with it since I was genuinely enjoying this person.
I added her on Telegram, and we were continuing our conversations from the day earlier. Said our good mornings, and talked more about goals and aspirations. She would talk to me about her childhood, and I would talk about mine. We eventually began exchanging pictures (nothing sexual), voice recordings, jokes. We talked for a week, and she began talking about how she uses AI for short term node investing to make money on the side while she was working and invested at times the AI told her to. I said cool, and continued with our normal conversations. Eventually I was beginning to get loved bombed and sweet talked to over the course of a couple weeks. I was feeling great about myself, and confident. I felt like I had a connection to them, I was mentioning her to friends and family about how awesome she was. About a week and a half in, she said she had to travel for a few weeks to a different part of the USA. Another red flag yay. Probably 5 so far?
I was super skeptical, but not enough. This girl intrigued me so much. I was sick for about a week, and she was constantly checking up on me and reminding me to eat, sleep, take my temperature, and to get up every few hours to stretch. None of my family or friends do this for me, which made me fall for her a bit more. She made me reconcile with my parents too, and my relationship with my parents is a lot better than before. She did mention before that she was very family oriented, and it opened my eyes that I should leave the past in the past, and embrace the future.
We had a heart to heart with one another one night, I don't want to go into details but she explained why she was single and why I was single, and this kind of sealed it for me I think. LOOOOTS of love bombing after this. One of the patterns I was noticing through the weeks is that she would always message me at 10 am, the good mornings and the like, and go to bed at 12 am (shift change anyone?). Never any messages before or after this time. She also facetimed me, had a quick conversation, but she claimed the connection was bad, so we ended it after a few minutes. I read this was a common thing after I got scammed. She was a real girl, I've heard her and seen her, but she is most likely just part of an operation. I even reverse image searched her on multiple different platforms, no results showed up. Insane.
She began talking talking about her crypto again, and wanted me to join her! I did not care about the money as much as I was caring about her. I wanted to start for her. She showed me how to to buy crypto, and how to put it in my wallet, and how to set up 2FA to transfer the crypto to said wallet. Seems normal so far, and we continued the next day. One of the things I noticed was that I was getting the drive to learn back, I dislike my current job. It's monotonous, boring, tedious, and this was something new! She got me back into reading, watching shows, improving on myself in different aspects of life.
The next day, she showed me how to use the browser in the wallet, to start staking crypto, and make passive income. I started with 200 USDT. I am kind of broke right now since everything costs so much and I make an OK wage. This could lead to financial freedom I thought. The website itself was fishy, poorly done, numbers had floats attached to them. Did not look professional, but I felt like I was in love and I could trust her. I know it's stupid loving someone you have not met.
After a few days of staking, I withdrew the money into my wallet. Looked legit! I made money. Not that much, but it was something. She mentioned to me how much money this makes compared to a 401k or roth IRA, seemed believable. She then showed me what app she uses for the short node investing. It was not on the app store, so I had to follow a link to download it (yay another red flag I saw and ignored on purpose). I set the app up and we said our good nights.
During the next day, she began walking me through how to use the app, how to input money from the wallet I have, including my staking if I wanted to. She sent me 20 dollars in ETH for the gas fees to send the USDT. Made me believe in her even more. I inputted about 250 USDT into the app, and we began short term node investing. I made about 100 dollars that day. Felt good. Yes I know it's fake.
The next day were serious red flags. She told me how her coworker withdrew his full 401k (40k USD) and put it into staking and short node investing, and has made a few hundred thousand dollars. I was intrigued, and she said I should do that too. I want to thank my job and bank for only letting me withdraw half, and loaning it against myself, and not letting me do a hardship withdrawal. I withdrew about 6000 USD from my 401k, sent it to my bank, and wired it to crypto. After waiting a few days for it to clear, I put it into my wallet, and into the fake exchange for short node investing.
I made about 44000 in fake money over the course of a couple days. She mentioned there's a new member reward, if I put in 10k USD in my account I get another 800 USDT free for being a new member. I mentioned that I can't, rent would be in a few days, and I needed the money for rent. She assured me that I should let my money work for me, and that I can withdraw it when I needed to for rent. Trusting this, I put my rent money into the fake exchange expecting to be able to withdraw it later since I was able to withdraw money before.
I got to about 8.5k USDT, 1.5k away for the free 800 USDT from the rewards program. She recommended me to apply for bank loans (another red flag LOL, but I was blinded). I never really built my credit at all before, only car loans and a credit card that I missed 2 20 dollar payments 4 years ago. My credit is low (640) so I could not loan out 50k from the bank like she wanted me to. The best I could do was 1.5k. I ended up getting my first credit card in a long time, it has a 500 dollar max currently and unsecured.
I did not end up taking out the loan (not yet), and I did not using any of the credit card to buy crypto with. This is when I began to believe something was wrong. There's no way I am getting scammed! She was messaging me and talking to me 15 hours a day, right? That's a lot of time investment.
Rent day was coming up, I went to withdraw my rent money from the fake exchange. I got an email stating I have to pay 5k in fees to withdraw the money because I won a lot of money.
I talked to her about it, inquiring why I could not just take out a portion of my principle I put in, without touching any of the winnings. She claimed it was for tax purposes and forgot to tell me. I half believed her. I talked to 2 friends seeing if I could loan out 5k from them. One said they will talk to their wife first, I respected their decision. They ended up saying no, I said thank you and I understood.
The other friend said sure, since I payed back a loan another friend gave me timely in the past. He tried to send it to me via cashapp, but was told to contact his bank first. I am very happy that happened. I said don't worry about it, I'll find out what to do. Didn't mention it the next day since I was still thinking.
Rent day came, and I took that 1500 loan to pay most of my rent. I still had a little extra money in my account to cover the full rent. Paying 500 dollars back a month on this loan to get it done asap, since my credit history isn't good, and I don't want to pay 30% interest. I'd rather loan from a bank if I can than mess up a friendship due to my stupidity.
I didn't talk to the girl for almost a full day, she kept trying to check up on me asking if I was ok and sending me voice messages. I went to a bar with friends and had a great time. I have 30 dollars in my bank account now, I get payed next week, I have a 1500 dollar loan with 30% interest I have to pay back, and 6000 dollars in a 401k I have to pay off that comes out of each paycheck. I stopped contributing to it so I don't feel as underwater.
I began responding to her, her messages weren't as lovable or frequent anymore (most likely because I mentioned that I am no longer interested in short node investing unless I get a portion of my principle back), maybe good morning and good night, and something short in the day. I used to reread our full conversations from the days when we began first talking, it just felt like bliss to me. Now I hardly want to talk to her, I downloaded and exported our conversation history from Telegram, but keeping her there just incase I can use something against it. Most likely won't be able to.
A friend mentioned to me he saw her account on another dating app, and they reported it. Different name, only a few miles away when she's supposed to be somewhere else. I told one friend about this story so far. They are very close to me and we had a heart to heart about it.
The most painful part about this is that I told my mom and sister about how I met someone new that really clicked with me, and I was finally happy. I struggled for so many years and they noticed my demeaner changed and were super joyous about it. Not only that, I don't miss the money I lost (~8.7k dollars), I miss the person that I thought I was building a relationship with that I would eventually meet and love. I was on Tinder for 3 months before I found her, every conversation was so dry and uninteresting to me until I met her. I only talked to her for about a month so maybe that is why I was able to break the spell early.
I feel free right now. I thought I would go back to being depressed, but I feel like I gained more than lost from this. I learned how to be a bit more sociable with people, what to look out for in scams (this one was way different than any I have ever experienced), to talk to people close to me about their thoughts of what's going on. I kept it all in. My relationship with my family is better because of her, but I will miss the person I thought that was for me. They really are intelligent in what they do, it's crazy. Maybe I found out that I am a hopeless romantic when my guard is not up. Which sucks, but it is what it is.
I will try to pay back all my loans asap, it's not too much money, but I will have to live more frugally at the moment. I'm not ready to let me mom or sister know, but I told one of my friends so far that won't joke about it. I am also happy I did not rope any friends into this. I needed time to clear my thoughts and do what I could to make this right.
Whenever I see her pictures online, I feel melancholic. I report her to the apps but it forces me to see what could have been if it was real. I have also submitted a case to the FBI, I don't know what else I should send to.
Thanks for reading if any of you did, I rambled a lot.
TLDR:
- Haven't dated in years, met chick on dating app and I was first to initiate
- She asked for my number, I gave it to her
- Quickly moved onto Telegram
- Lovebombed for weeks
- Mentions she's an investor in crypto, and wanted me to join her
- Blinded by fake love, lose 8.7k USD to the scam, everything in my bank account + half my 401k
- Had to take a loan out from a bank to pay rent
- Will miss the person I thought was for me more than the money lost itself
- Learned more from this than lost in my opinion. Thank god I'm already poor. It could have been much worse if my credit was good. Now I am on the path to building my credit for the first time in years.
- I'm aware that I was most likely talking to different people over Telegram, and she would send the recordings herself or facetimes.
2023.06.03 22:32 mfbrownbear [P5V5P4] The Bible, and what it takes to rule
I have gotten curious about what is actually written in the Bible, versus what is written in the Grutrissheit. I am also curious as to why there are so many copies / translations / transcriptions of the bible without there being a complete copy in the archives.
When Myne was an apprentice blue shrine maiden and was allowed access to the Temple book room, she read the Bible. Then she read different copies of the Bible in the Temple book room. She was reading versions so old that Damuel couldn't read them at all, and Ferdinand had to help her with the translation. [P2V3]
Then, she later became the High Bishop and was made the owner of the Temple's primary Bible. A magic tool. At some point later, after new material started appearing to her in that Bible, and she asks Ferdinand for advice:
In [P4V7]
In [P4V1] Rozemyne hears about the Grutrissheit for the first time from Rosina.
So, if Rozemyne meets all the other qualifications, but still can't enter the Forbidden Archive due to not having royal blood, then everyone's plans are screwed. If that happens the rampage will be, ironically, biblical. I could see Rozemyne at that point demanding to speak to the manager.
Rozemyne: "Get Mestionora down here NOW! I pay my prayer taxes! I demand to make my own copy directly from her! I will boycott! You will never see another drop of mana from me, or my retainers, I swear!"
Question: Would Rozemyne rather read the 1st edition print of the Grutrissheit in the Forbidden Archive, or would she rather make her own custom print from the Book of Mestionora herself?
Answer: Both. Obviously. She would want to compare and even smell the differences.
But, now I wonder about the difference between the "hidden" archive that requires the 3 keys to open, and the "forbidden" archive that only Royals can enter. It was said that only Royals and select archduke family members could enter the Hidden Archive. Those that didn't meet the criteria were told "Not qualified" by the shumils. Perhaps after you fulfill all of the other hidden qualifications that make the shumil say things like "Not enough elements" and "Not enough prayer" they would lead you to the Forbidden Archive? Ferdinand also explained that "Royal blood" was spread around the duchy in a way, while describing his thoughts on the nature of the Temple Bibles.
[P4V7]
If Rozemyne can enter the Hidden Archive, then she already meets the "select archduke candidate" criteria, even though she was born a commoner. It makes me think that "royal blood" might not mean genetic inheritance.
If it's possible to obtain "royal blood', i.e. become recognized as royal by magic, without actual blood relations, I can only think of two ways.
I really don't know what to expect anymore. Will Rozemyne be blocked from entering the Forbidden Archive? Will she summon a goddess? Even if she gets the Grutrissheit, will she be able to simply hand it off to someone not qualified to get it themselves? Someone send Ferdinand some Tylenol.

Then, she later became the High Bishop and was made the owner of the Temple's primary Bible. A magic tool. At some point later, after new material started appearing to her in that Bible, and she asks Ferdinand for advice:
In [P4V7]
"So this is the bible only the High Bishop can read, hm? What makes it different from other bibles?" Justus asked. He was eagerly flipping through the pages, but his response proved that he couldn't see the magic circle or the text in the air.Most of the older stuff in the temple book room would have come from old Eisenreich, since Ehrenfest is only a couple of hundred years old. I imagine all of the original Eisenreich temple's divine instruments and Bible and documents got moved to the new Ehrenfest temple when the foundation was moved. I would have thought that Rozemyne, upon becoming the owner of the Bible when she was made High Bishop and finding she could read all the way to the end of the book, would have started a new and more complete transcription right away. At the time, not knowing that no one else can read as much of it as she can, she would have also wondered why no one had fully transcribed it before.
"It is a more complete version - or, at the very least, it has more details than any of the transcriptions in the temple's book room," I replied. There were several transcriptions of the bible in the temple's book room, but their page counts varied quite dramatically.
In [P4V1] Rozemyne hears about the Grutrissheit for the first time from Rosina.
She went on the explain that the Grutrissheit was the original bible, owned by Mestionora herself. The first king of the country had been chosen by the gods and permitted to transcribe a copy.Then, in [P4V7] while she is talking to Ferdinand about the new magic circle and text that started showing up in her Bible:
As the bible described, the position of Zent was given to those who transcribed the original Grutrissheit. Ferdinand explained that over the long years hence, this had morphed into the current Zent passing his transcribed version down to the next. The passed-down Grutrissheit itself had become the symbol of the Zent.Then, Ferdinand tells Rozemyne that even if she meets every other qualification, she will still never see the original Grutrissheit.
This transcription had been lost during the civil war following the previous king's death. Now, the current king needed to transcribe a new one from the original Grutrissheit... but its location remained unknown.
"You certainly have all of the qualities necessary to become king. However, there is one crucial condition that you have not fulfilled."After Rozemyne cries about having her hopes dashed that Prince Hildebrand wouldn't be able to let her into the Forbidden Archive to at least read the book ..
"And what condition is that?" I asked, looking at the bible curiously.
"It is simple," Ferdinand said. "You were born a commoner and thus do not have royal blood. For that reason, you cannot become king."
"Royal blood...? The bible doesn't say anything about needing that."
Ferdinand tapped a finger against his temple in contemplation and then let out a sigh. "In the same way that only certain people can enter this hidden room, the Grutrissheit is within an archive that only royalty can enter - or so an ancient text maintains. In other words, you will not be able to enter that archive, nor will you be able to transcribe the book. No matter how many kingly qualities you may have, you cannot become king."
"Besides, the Grutrissheit in the archive is the first king's transcription, so we can assume it is nearly identical to this bible we have with us.So, all of this has left me feeling a bit confused. By my count, there are 3 versions of the Grutrissheit. Four, if you count the Bibles.
- The Book of Mestionora. The one held by the goddess herself. THE Original Grutrissheit. She does not lend it out. The first Zent was allowed to make a copy.
- The First Zent's Grutrissheit. The only direct transcription from the Book of Mestionora. The first worldly version of the book. Yurgenschmidt's Original Grutrissheit, the one used to create the country. Claimed to be in the Forbidden Archive, only accessible to those with royal blood. Perhaps anyone with access to the Forbidden Archive could make a copy.
- The Grutrissheit. I guess the "normal" one. The one that all Zents after the first one had to transcribe from his. Like the one that was lost during the recent civil war. Was this the only one around though? It sounds like there can be more than one copy. If anyone qualified to enter the forbidden archive can make a copy, then it's possible.
So, if Rozemyne meets all the other qualifications, but still can't enter the Forbidden Archive due to not having royal blood, then everyone's plans are screwed. If that happens the rampage will be, ironically, biblical. I could see Rozemyne at that point demanding to speak to the manager.

Ferdinand also explained that "Royal blood" was spread around the duchy in a way, while describing his thoughts on the nature of the Temple Bibles.
[P4V7]
"Furthermore, the archdukes in the distant past were married to those of royal blood," Ferdinand continued. "In other words, one could say that more or less all children of archdukes have royal blood to some extent. Perhaps the first king distributed these bibles to each duchy such that the strongest of all those with his blood would be chosen to be king."Based on how this describes archduke families having royal blood, and that those with enough of it can enter the Hidden Archive, I get a feeling that there is not a higher level of royal blood needed to enter the Forbidden Archive than is needed to enter the Hidden one. If that's the case, then Rozemyne already does have royal blood.
If Rozemyne can enter the Hidden Archive, then she already meets the "select archduke candidate" criteria, even though she was born a commoner. It makes me think that "royal blood" might not mean genetic inheritance.
If it's possible to obtain "royal blood', i.e. become recognized as royal by magic, without actual blood relations, I can only think of two ways.
- Divine intervention. Whether from Divine Protections or some other way, I bet the gods could declare someone fit to rule and they would be recognized as royal by magic means.
- Mana interaction. Blood is heavily associated with a person's mana as well. The highest concentration of a person's mana is in their blood. Mana-mixing among family and lovers could theoretically change someone's mana to introduce "royal blood" to their system.
I really don't know what to expect anymore. Will Rozemyne be blocked from entering the Forbidden Archive? Will she summon a goddess? Even if she gets the Grutrissheit, will she be able to simply hand it off to someone not qualified to get it themselves? Someone send Ferdinand some Tylenol.
2023.06.03 22:32 MrCsabaToth Is the Motorola ThinkPhone (ROW model) compatible with Google Fi?
It would be unlocked from Lenovo, and I assume they would not sell the PRC model in the USA, so it must be the ROW (Rest of the World) model. I couldn't find how to enable VoLTE. I haven't bought the phone but thinking about it. Can anyone confirm it's compatible? Currently my daily driver is a OnePlus Nord EU for the last 3 years (before that it was OP 6 and an OP 3t all for 3 years, all worked OK with Fi, VoLTE, VoWifi), I have a Fi nano SIM in it, I'd assume I'd just have to transfer that SIM physically, the ThinkPhone should also have a dual nano SIM tray. My main attraction to Motorola is the Ready For which much more ready to use than OP's desktop mode.

2023.06.03 22:32 DataAnalyst4 Hey guys, nice to meet you. I'm M23 and love Japanese culture
You can call me Akihiko. I'm a fan of anime, I like reading about Japan. And I extensively study japanese language everyday to get better at reading, writing and speaking japanese. I'm not obsessed with Japan, but I can see why it would seem close to an obsession. I also love video games and watching YouTube. I'm a case manager at a car company and I currently live in a hotel. Kind of just chilling. I moved states away recently so I could afford to live as rent was skyrocketing so bad in my town. I don't have any friends really but would like to get to know people. Girls, boys, non-binary, trans, I'd love to meet you. please don't message me if you are under 18 or over 30. I'd like to meet people closer to my age. Thanks. can't wait to meet you :)

2023.06.03 22:32 Jounniy Would be transferring CotN to the forgotten realms realistically possible?
Exactly what the title says. I'm currently running my Party through LMoP and we are all having a great amount of fun. They really like their characters and will definitely want to keep them between the adventures. I'm therefore looking for a followup-adventure and this one seems very interesting and pretty well written, but I don't know (as the book doesn't give any advice on that) if its possible to play it in the FG.
My ideas would be (SPOILER-Alert):
- Ruduis is one of many other strange things at the sky
- Keep dieties mostly the same
- Switch the cobalt should for the harpners, the Allegiance for the lords alliance and keep the vermillion dream as it is
- Instead of the calamity, the fall of the Apotheon happened before/in the early time of the Nehterees, with Alyxian fighting avatars of the gods just the same.
- Keeping most locations and simply placing them somewhere in the swoardcoast.
What do you say? Does that sound doable, or should I look for a different adventure, as it would be to much work?

2023.06.03 22:32 TransThrowaway4096 Should I get a job in the US or EU?
Hi, US / Irish EU citizen who only speaks English here. I've been looking at IT helpdesk jobs in New York and the Netherlands, but I've been struggling to find an entry level IT helpdesk job in the Netherlands that doesn't require me to speak Dutch. I've also been considered Dublin or London as an option. My biggest worry outside of not being able to even get a basic IT helpdesk job is America's lack of universal healthcare. I have quite a few severe health issues I need to worry about. That being said there's quite a big difference in salary between the US and EU. So, assuming I can even get a job where should I go? Currently I live about an hour away from New York City in Pennsylvania, but nothing is tying me down besides my lack of employment. So, if you were me what would you do?

2023.06.03 22:31 DrNog001 Can someone explain the ICWA case?
My wife and I are foster parents, and we are currently involved in a case where the ICWA is being utilized. We know that there is a case that the Supreme Court has heard concerning this, and from our understanding, a ruling will be handed down this month.
No matter how much research I’m doing, I can’t find any info on the actual case. Does anyone know anything about it?
Likewise, based on the Justices’ stances, is there a projected outcome?
Finally, I think they have to rule on it this month. Is that right? Is there a chance they don’t?
Thanks in advance for anyone who can help!

i have gastropresis (gp) along with crohns, i am currently on tpn. In 2021 i had a bowel resection to removed the last part of my small intestine and some of the large colon. My motility surgeron thinks a pyloroplasty will be a good idea for the gp. at first i was going to do a gastric stimulator but docs think a pyloroplasty will be a better fit. now im biggest concern is how will this affect my crohns and my ability to absorb nutrients and will it flare my crohns?
so my question is, has anyone had this done or a similar story?

Not sure if its a correct post for this subreddit so please pardon me.
I have seen the above mentioned movie a few times. Although it wasn’t successful in south as well or in its own industry. So definitely this is not a crowd pulling subject for current generation. May be oldies like me liked it. But every time I watch this movie and i guess who could play these roles in bollywood and if there is a production house who would make it without adding any glamour, cheap humor or intimate scenes.

2023.06.03 22:30 Tobi-Toe Looking for players
Hello!
I'm currently on the lookout for players for a TROIKA! campaign in a d&d module (I know weird). We were playing 5e but most of our players fell through suddenly and when I did the Blancmange and Thistle for the remaining ones they loved it and requested a system change.
We are playing on Saturdays 21:00 GMT+1.
Anyone out here interested?

2023.06.03 22:30 TransThrowaway4096 Should I get a job in the US or EU?
Hi, US / Irish EU citizen who only speaks English here. I've been looking at IT helpdesk jobs in New York and the Netherlands, but I've been struggling to find an entry level IT helpdesk job in the Netherlands that doesn't require me to speak Dutch. I've also been considering Dublin or London as an option. My biggest worry outside of not being able to even get a basic IT helpdesk job is America's lack of universal healthcare. I have quite a few severe health issues I need to worry about. That being said there's quite a big difference in salary between the US and EU. So, assuming I can even get a job where should I go? Currently I live about an hour away from New York City in Pennsylvania, but nothing is tying me down besides my lack of employment. So, if you were me what would you do?

GENERAL NEWS UPDATES 🔈️
Gwmngilfen contributedDon Naro saidAnsible Project Mission Statement - have your say!
As part of our efforts to strengthen the community this year, it seemed right to make sure that the aims of the project - as a whole - are clearly communicated.
We've been around a while, and while automation is clearly central, we have a variety of statements like "a radically simple IT automation system", "Automation for everyone", or "open-source automation that is simple, flexible, and powerful". We called out "fragmentation" in the community strategy, and this is a great example of it in action - we're not being consistent in our message.
So, we thought it might be time to ask you all - What does Ansible mean to you?. Give us your thoughts! We'll use the data to inform the work on making this consistent, and we'll update you on the results later in the summer.
As you might know the Ansible 8 package is going to be released soon! We're preparing to publish the documentation and would like to ask the community for review of docs on the test site here.
If you see any issues, missing content, or have any comments, please drop by the Docs channel on Matrix or add a comment to our docs checklist issue. Thanks!
Editor's note: This issue of The Bullhorn will be published after the release of Ansible 8.0.0. However, you are still welcome to review the docs for this release (and in general) and share your feedback anytime! In fact, I just submitted a docs PR while compiling this newsletter issue 😊

COLLECTION UPDATES 🪄
andersson007_ saidThe community.mysql collection version 3.7.2 has been released! Special thanks to betanummeric for fixing the blocker!Ashwini Mhatre contributed
We're happy to announce the following networking collection updates: * cisco.iosxr 5.0.3 has been released with bugfixes (changelog) * cisco.nxos 4.4.0 has been released with new features (changelog) * vyos.vyos 4.1.0 has been released with new features (changelog)mariolenz shared
It looks like the netapp.azure collection is effectively unmaintained. According to the current community guidelines for collections, we consider removing it in a future version of the Ansible community package. Please see Unmaintained collection: netapp.azure for more information or to announce that you're interested in taking over the maintenance of (a fork of) netapp.azure.mariolenz shared
At least one month after this announcement appears here and in the collection's issue tracker, the Ansible Community Steering Committee will vote on whether this collection is considered unmaintained and will be removed, or whether it will be kept. If it will be removed, this will happen earliest in Ansible 10. Please note that you can still manually install the collection with ansible-galaxy collection install netapp.azure even when it has been removed from Ansible.
The netapp.aws collection is considered unmaintained and will be removed from Ansible 10 if no one starts maintaining it again before Ansible 10. See the removal process for details on how this works.
Please note that you can still manually install the collection with ansible-galaxy collection install netapp.aws even when it has been removed from Ansible.

Hi everyone! Just wanted some insight about this situation that I can’t stop thinking about.
I was interviewed for a job that I wasn’t 100% prepared for as I didn’t meet all the qualifications. That being said, it was a “throw your shot at it anyway” kind of experience for me, which unfortunately made me anything but fully prepared. The question that I wasn’t expecting was what my salary expectations were.
For some background, I was pretty desperate for a job at this point and was used to being so low balled with previous employments. I was asked what my previous salary was and I was upfront. My previous job paid a base and commission. During this interview, I completely forgot about the commission. It’s important to note that commission is actually a lot within my total pay. The interviewer offered me $1 more than the base salary of what I currently make.
When I ended the call, I knew that I would be making less than my previous job. Long story short, I did get the job! However, I seem to always have the thought that I low balled myself once again as I never asked that the pay range for this position was. I suppose I was so desperate and afraid of the possibility that asking for a higher pay would mean that they might turn to someone else with better qualifications. I have so much resentment for not asking or dealing with this in a better way! Is it too late?
I do understand I come off very naive. I was wondering if there is anything I can do about it at this point? I was doing more research and there was a Google job listing for the same role (they are hiring more for the same position) and the pay is well over what I make now. I am wondering if the salary listing per hour by Google is accurate?

2023.06.03 22:30 CarlFriedrichGauss Part-Time: Launch School vs. Codesmith?
Since everyone seems to be bringing up Launch School this week, I started looking into it and now I'm having a hard time deciding between these 2 part time programs, which I know are very different. I didn't really see too many direct comparisons that went in-depth and none comparing with Codesmith's part-time, so I figured I'd make a thread.
I'd love to hear if anyone has also decided between these 2 options and of course whatever Chris and Michael have to say.
Background: STEM grad currently employed in engineering (not related to software). My goal is to be job-ready within the next 12 months and hopefully get an offer by June 2024. I'd be open to quitting my full-time job in 2024 to do Capstone or just focus on my job search. I've done enough self-learning through freeCodeCamp, The Odin Project, and the University of Helsinki's Fullstack Open that I don't really want to spend too much time repeating the fundamentals. However, I would appreciate Launch School in solidifying what I have learned on React, back end, and learning how to think and communicate like an experienced software engineer.

Launch School
Pros:
- Hear a lot of good things here about how their pedagogy teaches you beyond entry-level concepts. Seems to focus on getting students up to a mid-level in terms of mindset.
- Self-paced until Capstone
- Capstone seems like a very solid and productive bootcamp since students entire with all the fundamentals. Good projects and working with good classmates.
- Very good employment results among Capstone grads. Less certain about Core-only students
- Unlike other bootcamps, there isn't any focus on projects for setting up a portfolio until you get to Capstone
- Not sure there are any career resources in Core like how to set up a resume/portfolio, network, and interview. Not sure about the career services in Capstone either
- Going through the whole Core curriculum to get into Capstone seems like an unproductive time sink if I've already touched on the concepts and could take longer than Codesmith. (Is there a way to test into Capstone without Core?)
- Hard to predict when I'll finish and be ready to apply for jobs since the time to finish Core is 1000-1500 hours and is a prereq for applying for Capstone
- Community seems smaller than Codesmith
Pros:
- Tried-and-true for traditional software engineering bootcamps. Pros and cons are well known by now, along with all the complaints
- You come out with a portfolio of projects which helps with the job search, even if the usefulness of a portfolio has declined over time
- Solid career services and large network for helping with constructing a resume, practicing interviews
- Easy to find grads and talk to them about their experiences or what they wish they could have done differently
- Clear timeline of when you'll finish once you've been accepted into a cohort
- Firehose style of teaching/learning means you're going to have to do a lot of self-reinforcement to truly master
- Rigid schedule means limited time for vacations or social life for ~9 months
- I've been hearing that portfolios are becoming less important as the job market has softened and bootcamps have grown. Hiring managers don't really care about CRUD apps
- Cost (considering Capstone on top of Core)
- Long time to find a job
