2023.06.03 13:32 beyboo Razorock Super Slant OC L2++
| Out of town in one satellite towns of Chennai, I took my Razorock Super Slant OC L2++ on it's maiden voyage to cut down 2 days of hard stubble. My travel kit had a Razorock Super Slant L3 SB and the L2++ and the Razorock DC razor. For the first time, I replaced my Rockwell 6S razor with these razors. The DC was a fallback in case the Super Slants proved a bit too much. I also carried winner blades instead of the usual Rockwell blades. The other usuals in travel kit - tabac shave stick and a no name brand Chinese small synthetic shave brush, I got off Aliexpress in a 6 pack for 10 dollars some years back. I put in a winner blade on the top cap and put the L2++ OC plate. Pressing down the plate to tighten the blade with the fingers did nothing. So I screwed on the handle and started to tighten it. The blade torqued bit by bit but didn't buckle and made a few noises as it torqued. Had a hot shower with some real hard water, good prep for the shave. Lathered up Tabac, and now moment of truth. Being a unique geometry, it was going to take time to figure out the angle of attack. First few strokes and the stubble was taken down ruthlessly and effortlessly. I was still in the angle finding mode, the first strokes shallow, some steep. Steep was most efficient. Ultimately smooth razor with minimal blade feel, zero.blade chatter. I took a 3 pass shave as there was substantial stubble. 3 passes of ultra slick tabac and the shave was done. The most efficient angle is steep. Skin felt soft and smooth post shave. Applied the tabac shave balm, tabac Deo stick and the tabac Deo once dressed. Amazing shave, but I felt that I need the higher OC plate. I'll pick up maybe the L3 + series plates. Tomorrow I'll try the L3 SB, but I have a gut feel, I'll need an L4 plate !! submitted by beyboo to Wetshavers_India [link] [comments] |
2023.06.03 13:31 Ok_Button4786 Question: custom rating system
Hi,
I'm a freelancer and I use Divi to build websites. My client has a cocktail recipe page, but he would like to add a rating to it. So he can tell viewers what he thinks of it. However, he wants to do this with flamingos instead of the typical star system. Is there any plugin that will allow me to do this?
If not, would anyone be able to help me code this? 🦩

2023.06.03 13:31 Captain_Pickles_ Dyeing yellow fur to orange?
I know this is more of a “modifying an existing fursuit part” thing than a “making a fursuit” thing, but I just found someone selling their used digi legs for a crazy cheap price, basically around the same price as just buying the materials to make it myself. They’re almost the exact colors I want except they are black with yellow stripes instead of black with orange stripes like I need. I imagine there has to be some way I can easily dye the yellow to orange right? Especially since the surrounding black is pretty much impossible to ruin. Basically, I’m asking if anyone knows how I can “spot-dye” some fur that’s already been sewn together. The padding is removable so that’s a bonus as well to make things easier.
Thank y’all so much for any help!

2023.06.03 13:31 Yamikadoom Apex (and Smite) Crashing on Launch
I've had this issue for about 2-3 months now.
What happens: After clicking play, EasyAntiCheat loading goes through and vanishes followed by the game opening for about 2 seconds until it closes. No Crash dialogue whatsoever. On steam, the play button goes green again. Neither Apex or EAC are left on in processes.
This happens with no other games than Apex Legends and Smite, which makes me think it has something to do with EasyAntiCheat.
What I've tried with no success:
- Validating Game Files
- Origin instead of Steam
- Emptied Cache Files
- Reset router
- Uninstalling/Reinstalling/Repairing EasyEntiCheat
- Multiple Launch Options - including windowed mode, safemode, nosteam, administrator, OPENSSL
- Turned off Firewall, Antivirus and any advanced threat protection
- Updated Graphic drivers, windows, CPU drivers, the Game, Steam, DirectX, Visual C++ Redistributable libraries
- Installing the game on a different hard drive
- Disabling fullscreen optimizations
- Running Smite, Apex and EAC always as administrator
build:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER
Motherboard: MSI x470 Gaming Plus
RAM: 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX Black 2666MHz DDR4

Get the course here:
[Download Course] Dan Koe – Digital Economics Masters Degree (Genkicourses.site) Our website:
https://www.genkicourses.site/product/dan-koe-digital-economics-masters-degree/
Phase 0) Digital Economics 101
The Digital Economics 101 module will open 1 week prior to the cohort start date.This is an onboarding module that will get you up to speed so we can get straight into the material.This will be required to finish before the start date.
- Gain a deep understanding of all of the pieces in the digital economy.
- Learn about the future of media and code — the front-end and backend of the internet — so you can focus your efforts.
- Understand digital leverage, distribution, no-code tools, and digital assets so you can take part in the mental & financial wealth transfer.
Phase 1) Creating A Meaningful Niche
Every day I hear people going on and on about trying to find their niche.I also hear people talking about how they
don’t know how to combine what they love talking about with
what will sell.You already have the answer.
You just don’t have the clarity. - Develop a long-term strategy to create your own niche — meaning you don’t have to worry about your “competition” playing status games.
- Discover your life’s work, curiosities, and obsessions. I see too many people that are uncertain about this for years.
- Cultivate and turn your vision, goals, and values into a brand that attracts an audience you love interacting with (and that will buy from you, and only you).
Phase 2) Content Strategy
There is one thing that separates those who make it in the digital economy and those who don’t.It’s the
quality, articulation, and perceived originality of their content.The content you post has to
make sense to the people you attract.Everyone has a different voice and tone that they resonate with.
That they are congruent with and trust.It has to
change their thought patterns or behavior — that’s what makes you memorable.That’s what separates you from the sea of people posting surface-level copy-cat style posts.Example and putting my money where my mouth is:
- Become an expert-level speaker or writer on the topics you care about.
- Never run out of content ideas for your posts or promotions (without using content templates — that’s how you stay a commodity).
- Create posts, blogs, tweets, images, and videos that resonate with other’s on a deep level. People will actually ask you how you got so good at what you do.
- Separate yourself from the ocean of B-tier creators that struggle to sell their products, services, andhave their ideas stick in the head of their audience.
- Implement our Epistemic Research Method — which is just a fancy way of saying scientific research method… but it’s for researching your mind to craft brilliant content and product ideas.
Phase 3) Crafting Your Offer
Most people are sitting on a goldmine of skills, experience, and knowledge (
that they can use to help people 1-2 steps behind them).That is what people pay for.Considering
95% of the market are beginners… if you are good at something, you can help them get to your level (
no matter how “basic” you think the information is).Do you not watch basic content all day anyway? People don’t want new information,
they want to be reminded of what works. - Use our Minimum Viable Offer strategy to start monetizing immediately (and have something to improve over time, rather than procrastinating until it’s perfect).
- Have a strategy for reducing the time you spend working over time (as you build leverage and improve your offer).
- Know how to create your own customers from the audience you are building, instead of “finding” the right customer for your offer.
- Take the guesswork out of building coaching, consulting, or digital product offers.
Phase 4) Marketing Strategy
You aren’t making money because you aren’t promoting yourself or your offer.That is literally the only way to make money. Have something desirable and
consistently put it in front of peoples’ faces.In Phase 4, I will show you how to systemize, automate, and be consistent with simple promotions.You will be able to make money without having the chance of forgetting to do it (or letting fear of failure get in the way).
- Learn to sell on social media, in your writing, and across different platforms.
- Have consistent sales coming in while focusing on your meaningful message (no need to sound salesy all the time).
- Learn advanced automation strategies that you can implement at your own pace, especially once you validate your offer.
Bonus) The Creator Command Center
The Creator Command Center is a Notion template that houses all of the systems.This is how you will manage your brand, content, offer creation, marketing strategy, and systemized promotions for consistent sales.
Bonus) Live Product Build & Launch
In the first Digital Economics Cohort, I built out my course The 2 Hour Writer.I have videos showing how I build it with the strategies in phase 3 and 4.There is a bonus module that shows how I had an $85,000 launch that resulted in my first $100K month.I did this to prove the strategies inside Digital Economics work if you stick to the plan.
And, this past Black Friday, I blew my that monthly high out of the water in 4 days.That’s the power of these strategies if you stay consistent with your life’s work.

2023.06.03 13:30 PickledPokute My gripes about biters and how to fix em.
Biters are a great concept, but the execution is very lazy. Later I lay out points on how to improve the situation.
In Factorio, sprawling the base even a bit means that either you have to defend every screenful of the front or risk having to run take out the fires when the biters attack.
In modern game design, it's almost always the case that if you're not guaranteed to be in the battle (like fps wave survival games), you're telegraphed the enemy intentions quite clearly. Games like Slay the Spire and the Last Spell are examples of this.
Most of the following are written in perspective of unmodded game, but mods don't change the biter interactions dramatically.
Factorio biters don't have a timer when they attack, the don't show where they attack, the attacks are rather unsophisticated with dependence on pure power. Eventually the waves just appear. Except you have a very good radar coverage and manually take time to scout for massing squads of biters getting ready to assault. This is definitely not user-friendly, especially for new players already overwhelmed by the base building.
Having to practically defend every direction at roughly the same buildings results in cost requirements for those buildings being rather cheap by necessity. This in turn results in being able to build defense lines 3 turrets deep, which results in biters needing more plain power to push through. This of course ends up in needing more turrets... One of the most effective ways to deal with overwhelming attacks is by messing up the biter pathfinding, in other words, cheesing. But the game doesn't give an opportunity for much more.
The damage repair is very one-sided where the only solution is bots to repair and replace. It's also a quite perfect defense. The depth of this gameplay is super shallow.
Unfortunately, the ability to place a hundred gun turrets anywhere within a timespan of half a minute means that anywhere the player can get to defend, is easily defendable. Bots allow building similar defenses anywhere in a few minutes tops too.
The above parameters make it quite impossible to have an equation with challenge, variety and fun.
How I would topple the current, boring balance:
Make the biters more readable - When biters are amassing for attack, grant an ability for the player to know of this. A radar-like structure for that would work. Time to attack would be very good indicator too. Additionally, showing the probable attack path would very nice too - possibly requiring a tech or an item.
Make the biters more controllable - Having the biters more readable is nice enough, but we don't want to wait 10 minutes at the walls for the biters to eventually come. Wondering out beyond the walls to pull the biters is a stupid tactic with unnecessary risks. Rather, I would have something like "aggravation pheromones" item that can be launched from extremely long ranges just to trigger an attack.
Nerf the defense building - Ability to near-instantly spawn a 1000 dps array of gun turrets makes balancing impossible. Restricting building placement would just frustrate the player though. Most straightforward fix would be restricting the rate of fire of newly build defenses to 10% with the ate of fire gradually restoring to 100% in 10 minutes (tech upgrades could shorten this). Walls and buildings would also start at 10% or 5% max health. Sure, you could still overwhelm the biters by just placing ten times the turrets, but this would make some other tactics a lot more viable in comparison.
Nerf bot repair during battle - A spitter variant that can deploy a zone that prevents flying over an attacked area would work. The bot logic might need to change
Nerf defensive building focus fire - Currently the only way for anything other than long-range enemies to have an effect against defenses is by having either high resistances, armor, health or regen. The solution against them is of course more focus fire, which arms-races towards more armor, health, regen and resistances. One possible solution would be to have biters that leave a smoke-screen on death. Enemies within smoke screens would be untargetable by automatic defenses, except for when they're attacking.
Nerf biter durability - With other suggested changes here, biters wouldn't need the high durability to still pose a problem. Should allow room for different enemy types and even different defense types.
Make overruns more common, but less devastating - Static defenses will get disabled after losing half their health. The biters would be strongly discouraged from attacking disabled defenses, even preferring going towards the base/polluters than finishing the defenses off. The disabled defenses will re-activate after a certain time, with hopefully no biters left wandering around. This hastily plugs the hole in defenses and gives the player time, focus and confidence to engage the biters that got past the defenses. Difficult to balance though with bot rebuilding and repairing.
Make overruns / runbys more reasonably defendable - Currently a single or few biters can wreck almost infinite damage if they get through to your production. Could be well mitigated against by a long-range taunting building which launches a wire-area (~10 square radius or more), medium duration (~20secs) taunting pheromone field that makes biters attack the taunting building, which would be of course defended by other turrets. The taunting building would only target biters that do damage to production buildings and maybe belts/power distribution, but would have a very long cooldown (~5 minutes). Once taunted monsters would not be able to be taunted any more. The taunting building in combination with restoring base defenses and readable enemy attacks would give the player time to shore up defenses against next bigger attack instead of running around the base killing stragglers. It would also be something that the player knows they can't rely on consecutively. This is super important since player narrowly failing a situation can be fun if it's easily recoverable, but unrecoverable failures practically mean reloading.
Make the player itself something else than a mobile gun turret with fraction of dps - Currently fighting the biters is super boring, unless placing defensive building at the same time. It's basically "run backwards while shooting", unless you have enough firepower that you don't have to even run. The biters can turn on a dime, but if they have proper charging, inertia and imperfect control, then players would be able to juke the monsters. This only needs to apply for actively fighting biters - the ones pathfinding towards their targets don't need this and the CPU load associated with more complex movement.
Allow the biters bite on the move - This will dramatically increase lethality of the biters. This will make dps fields like fire and poison less effective if they run along the walls while biting on them. But this in turn allows the biters to have less damage per bite, which again allows for more stuff elsewhere.
Most of these apply for early/midgame tech levels since these need to be fixed first. Having more turret dps and enemy health isn't going to make the battles more fun themselves.
If you know mods that have some of these points applied, please list them.

2023.06.03 13:30 ThrowRA_Mnipulative I subtly manipulate my boyfriend to get him to “chase” me once again
My boyfriend and I (both 22) have been dating for over a year and a half. In the beginning, he treated me like a princess, was always the one to initiate and plan, never stopped expressing his love for me and consistently sent sweet text messages. He was always open to hearing my concerns and I felt really secure in the relationship, knowing that he was an active participant.
Recently, some big changes have taken place in both of our lives, and he finds himself wrapped up in coursework, on campus job and partying. I gave him grace but it was getting really uncomfortable knowing that he never made time to call me. I have high standards for men, and I expect at least 10 minutes of conversation every single day. He used to go on family vacations and completely forget about me, and won’t even bother checking up on how I was doing.
Recently, when we hung out with our friends, I was trying to be close to him, like standing in front of him, gently holding his hand under the table and other light forms of PDA. He disengaged from all that I was left feeling like a fool. He was never uncomfortable with PDA before and always made it a point to show me off and overall being territorial in public and I enjoyed it. When I asked him, he said we should keep it low and I felt like more of a friend to him than a partner. He actively shut down this conversation, refusing to hear my concerns and said I was too needy, too emotional and too demanding. He dismissed everything I said, and although he was jetlagged at the time, that was no way of talking to me. He was already “too busy” giving time to everything except his girlfriend and I resented that.
When I sought Reddit’s advice, I got two things:
1) Got called a bunch of names: “needy” “controlling” “insecure” “codependent”
2) Or given advice that was BS: “talk to him” “say directly” “get therapy” “build some self esteem” - bitch, I have healthy self esteem because I don’t wanna settle for less!
None of this was what I was looking for. I felt neglected, underappreciated and taken for granted in my relationship. Then, I got recommended this book, “Reverse Ultimatum” by Mimi Tanner, that basically gives this advice of leaning back and take an extra amount of pressure off to get his ass to move. It asked me to purposely be less available and “busy” for my man, said no to calls, let him text me and not replying back immediately, got involved in all sorts of activities that made me feel better about myself - and he got curious at first and wanted my attention. It felt sooo good to finally have my boyfriend’s real attention instead of the crumbs he was so used to giving.
But I did not back down just yet. I had to be less available to him, had to fake my busy day, to give him the chance to really miss me and become clingy just like I was once. All the while, I wasn’t demanding or needy or passive aggressive. I was as sweet as a peach and that really created that mystery! I was playing the part of a popular celebrity who was living an “Innocent Charmed Life” - and thus my time was money. I appeared happy, attractive and made it a point to “glow” - and he noticed that! I reassured him whenever he asked me of my love for him, and it finally felt good to be the one who WASN’T asking for reassurances.
I leaned back and watched him send flowers, get me coffee, send me desserts, write poems about me, show me off
So yea ladies, this is me proving how you can absolutely “get” your partner to do things for you and have your needs met. Had I not gotten a hold of that book, I wouldn’t have been able to save the relationship. Today, he treats me the way I want to be treated, because he is afraid of losing me, having gotten a taste of what it’s like to miss me. We don’t “miss” things we already have, and this was the reason why I wasn’t “missed” by him. This was really a turning point in my relationship and today I am much happier with him.
TLDR: playing it dirty isn’t all bad

2023.06.03 13:29 zmwright87 Siding contractor ruin my new roof?
| Had my siding contractor install new vinyl siding. I noticed when I walked up my hill that their were suspicious dots on top of the roof. Looks like the contractor used scaffolding to anchor them selves onto the roof and instead of putting it other the shingles he put it on top. I confronted the sider and had said this was “standard” for siding. He said he would do more damage peeling the shingles back since they were so glued together. I told him I was unhappy with this and looked for quotes from roofers. A roofer told me it would be $600 minimum to fix the shingles. Any thoughts on this? should this have been discussed with the customer before nailing thru existing shingles? Am I going to have leaks in the next 20 years from this? Already paid the contractor in full and he knows my concerns now via email. submitted by zmwright87 to Homebuilding [link] [comments] |
2023.06.03 13:28 Commander_PonyShep Are there any players here who work so much better in a support role, rather than a frontline combat role?
Like several years ago, I used to play Mass Effect 3's online multiplayer. I couldn't kill my enemies with much of the same efficiency as any three random players I was put together with. But these other random teammates never really stick together, revive each other, or complete objective-based waves, because they'd rather just solo entire waves of computer-controlled enemies. Unlike me, who had to do all of these things for my team without being able to kill that many enemies, myself.
And I'm sure that if I went back to playing video games again and played more online multiplayer shooters beyond just Mass Effect 3 on its own, I'd probably be better in a support role for those games than I would have been a frontline combat role. Like, I don't have the hand-eye coordination to aim my gun and quickly fire off a shot against an enemy player without spraying and praying and getting myself killed, instead. But at the very least, I can protect, heal, and revive my teammates, as well as complete objectives with the rest of my team, whether they're attack or defense-oriented, all without having to develop my hand-eye coordination all that much in much of the same way I would have a frontline combat role.
What about you? Do you work better in a support role for your team, rather than a frontline combat role?

2023.06.03 13:28 Fit_Being9165 Romantic movies recommendations
Yo I am looking for a romance movie with no nsfw except kisses, so basically no nakedness or sex scenes, preferably not a movie series but just a singular movie I have watched next to no movies so any recommendations will be awesome.Would be awesome if it's focusing more on the story and dialogue instead of random bs that has no need to be in a movie. Preferably also teenagers - not elderly people as I want to be able to (relate as much as possible) Also if possible could you give a short summary of the movie. Thank you in advance

2023.06.03 13:27 slipknot25 [Opinion] A Marketplace to hire video editing expert
Hello Folks,
I see how frustrating and time-consuming it can be to find the right editor for your content in a specific niche and style. Most creators often end up with the wrong editor for several reasons. When it comes to talent hunting, they usually turn to platforms like Fiverr or Upwork.
I am considering starting a dedicated marketplace for video editors, motion graphic designers, color grading, visual effects, audio editing, and everything else related to content creators.
The main pain point I've noticed for content creators who opt for these services is finding an expert. Nowadays, everyone claims to be a video editor, making it difficult to evaluate their expertise. Additionally, streamlining the editing process with editors is also a challenge.
I would appreciate it if you could share your opinion on a few questions before we start building it:
- Would you ever use such a platform instead of Upwork or Fiverr?
- Would you be willing to retain an editor on a weekly subscription price or a one-off project price?
- Before committing to a subscription with your editor, would you like to try their service by providing them with a small task, like editing a short video or reel (or we can do it on your behalf)?
- How much would you be willing to spend monthly if you found the editor of your dreams?
- Would you prefer anyone in the marketplace or just vetted and screened editors (pre-interviewed for their skills)?
- Do you have any other advice for the platform or categories we should focus on in the initial phase?
Thanks in advance.

2023.06.03 13:27 Beanstalk93 Pros and Cons
Thought it would be interesting to start a discussion on what people think are the pros and cons with the current Everton Squad. Not including the board because that's just one big con.
And after all what is Everton but balled up optimism and pessimism, bouching all over the place, leaving a mess wherever it's been.
So let's start with the Defence
Pro: When it comes to goals conceded, Everton were 13th, had we conceded 5 less we would have been 10th, putting us at average to just below average (it's depressing when that is a pro) although who knows how much of that was down to Pickford
Con: Losing both Mina and Coady. Not for their defensive contributions Mina barely played (and although he was influential in the last 4 games, he wasn't throughout the majority of the season) and Coady couldn't jump over a matchstick. But for their personalities in the dressing rooms both were massive characters.
Concern: All eggs in the Braithwaite basket, I really hope he does well when he comes back, we'll enough to be our starter, but he has come back from a weaker league, and if it doesn't work out, who is taking his place as it stands? Most likely Keane
Now onto the Midfield
Pro: arguably our strongest position with the most depth as well, Doucoure, Onana, Garner, Gana and Iwobi are on paper fairly solid for mid table but...
Con: Scoring goals, excluding Doucoure, the other 4 scored 3 goals over the course of the season. I'm not belittling them because of this, we have all known Gana isn't a goal scorers. But we need player who can chip in with a goal every now and then. Even Doucoure before the last 4 games only managed 2 goals. Had each of Iwobi, Gana, Onana and Garner scored just 2 goals each this season we would have finished with 5 extra goals.
Speaking of goals onto the forwards
Pro: Dwight Mcneil's resurgence under Sean Dyche. Not too much to say, bit apart from Pickford he was probably our best player under Dyche and finished with 7 goals, which for where we are right now, is good for a winger.
Con: Everything else, DCL not staying fit, lack of goals again, our 3 centre forwards combined with a massive 4 goals in the League last season. Let's be honest this is by far and away our weakest part of the field and the main reason (on the pitch) we were where we were.
Obviously there is much more to talk about (such as our lack of depth and injury conerns in the wing back positions) but this post is long enough already. So what are your opinions.

2023.06.03 13:27 _chenza_ My shop is ravaged by bot views in the past 2 weeks
I am used to seeing a view spike once a week where I get 30-40 visits in one hour, that's really nothing new. But in the last two weeks I am getting 50-80 views every day all coming from one and sometimes two spikes.
I'm really worried that combined with the slow business of May my shop's conversion rate already fell to 0.1%(!!!) last month instead of the usual 1-2%, and that it'll impact me for the long run. Is anyone else experiencing the same increased bot activity? Anything to do about it?

2023.06.03 13:26 No-Establishment4313 Am I destined to live alone forever?
It seems every time I have some sort of human interaction with, I'm immediately repulsed and offended by everything everyone does all the time.
I only get relief when I'm alone using my computer or when I'm with an INFPs
Being alone doesn't really bother me. I've come to accept that I will always be living inside my head, that's just who I am as a person.
My main concern is if it's healthy for my mind and spirit.
The older I get, the more isolated I become.
I recently got out of an abusive relationship with a narcissist and ever since, I've COMPLETELY isolated myself from the world.
I learned the hard way that the majority of people out there don't think in the selfless way that I do.
Living in my room spending all my time on my computer either working or watching YouTube.
Pushing away childhood friends that call me once a month to check on me.
I get bouts of depression every now and then, and suicidal thoughts.
Though, thinking of killing myself makes me wonder, what do I have to lose if I "put myself out there" since I'm already thinking of taking my own life anyways?
What don't I strive for the betterment of humanity instead of being fascinated with the beauty of the afterlife?
That place I yearn for will eventually come.
It's best to observe the awe and wonder of a DMT explosion in your brain at the age of 90, so you can dance in nirvana with your grandchildren when time has come to a complete halt and you are living in the moment of death for all eternity.

2023.06.03 13:26 kwyleriskool Might be falsely diagnosed with BPD
During high school, I had a lot of shit happen. A. Lot. I was constantly overwhelmed, over performing, emotional. I experienced the death of a friend/first crush by suicide and it crushed me. I had zero support system, and in fact my parents made it worse. In hindsight, I can only describe my parents behavior as manipulative and selfish. I was very distraught and grieving over the death of my very good friend, and my mother decided it was best to send me to a mental health facility when I began to act out at home. (She said “I heard it was with a shotgun, that must have been a mess to clean” the day after it happened) My mother began to become extremely overbearing and developed (or maybe always had) control issues. Tracked my location 24/7 on my phone, literally watching it hour by hour. Going through my belongings/journal/phone/everything I own to find something incriminating. Wouldn’t let me hang out with friends under any circumstances. Even though I had straight A’s, took extra classes, stayed 6 hours every day after school for my extra curricular. (Lead roles in school performances, best ranked cellist in my state/first chair, varsity track and forensics/debate, 3rd best ACT scores in my class) Long ass story short, one day my mom deceived me by having the school counselor take me out to get McDonald’s, then to the hospital where my mom had lied to the police saying I had made suicide threats and told them I was abusing drugs. This fucking ruined me. The moment I realized who she really was was when I saw the look on her face when I was being dragged away in handcuffs. The police looked at me like I was dangerous and insane. I spent only a week there because I acted normal the entire time. But I still was given diagnosis of BPD Type 1 and prescriptions as well, and forced to take them or else I would be allowed to leave. Anyways, since then, I’ve realized I probably don’t have BPD and was just coerced into it to please my mother who payed all kinds of money for her weird form of punishment. (The first thing she said when I answered the phone at the mental facility was “are you ready to apologize yet?”) I haven’t taken the meds since I moved out and I haven’t had anything close to an episode. I hate that I was forced to believe I had this diagnosis just because of circumstance. It makes me feel so bad for so many people who are given false diagnosis’s just to check a box. I have a lot of resentment toward my mom, but I try so hard to remember she raised and fed me my whole life and payed for everything I needed. I don’t know what happened, but as I got older, the more control my mother needed over me. It was too much. I wish I could help my mom realize her mistakes but she’s too far gone. She can’t see any other perspective but her own and will lie and deceive to make sure her image is upheld, even at the cost of her child. For some closure, I ended up dropping out of high school when my mom kicked me out on Christmas. I only had .5 credit to graduate because of all the extra classes I had taken. I went to live with my dad but he didn’t let me leave the house for 5 months until I turned 18. right when I turned 18 I had to find an apartment, work full time, and work my ass off. Anyway, I got my GED, enrolled myself and college and currently working towards a major in Epistemology and a major in music. I guess I needed to get more off my chest than I thought but I am just so proud of myself that I pay my own bills, I pay my own apartment and car, work 12 hrs overnight, get A’s in all my college classes, and I am not even fuckin 21 yet. All by myself. Fuck u mom and dad and stepmom and stepdad saying I wouldn’t make it a week on my own after kicking me out. I did that shit. And I’m not bipolar. Just a lame ass way to put the blame on your kids reactions instead of your own actions.
If you made it here, I’m so sorry to have wasted your time. I have absolutely 0 people to talk to in life, and I’ve just wanted to get this off my chest.

2023.06.03 13:25 rzet Tyre pressure vs punctures and comfort balance.
Any good calculators or opinions on tyre pressure?
I know this one and it pointed me to 40-42PSI on 40mm and 94kgs for dry conditions.
https://axs.sram.com/guides/tire/pressure It is fine on road and some off road, but I lower it "more" when I really plan to go via fields or forest. My tyre is rather for road or nice dry even gravel (tufo speedero coming to premature end, will be changing to cinturato gravel H with a very similar thread pattern).
Only bit I am really unsure about is the puncture resistance vs sharp gravel I can find recently on forest roads used by the local authority to cover mud. It takes months for people to crush it if there is not much tree cutting machinery moving around. Every time I go through it I think of stan sealant in my wheels if its going to stay there or not ;). I've learned hard way to slow down even if there is a visible crushed path as there can be always some sharp one there.
If I know I will enter forest for long or I will be cycling via long older more firm but bulky gravel - i stop and reduce pressure "a bit". On the other hand if I am making a shortcut via forest for fun, but I know I will be doing a lot more of road ride I would stay on my target ~40PSI.
However I keep thinking how is that low/high pressure affecting puncture resistance especially with sharp gravel used often in Poland. e.g.
https://www.pless.pl/wiadomosci/78926-zdjecia-trasa-spacerowa-zmienila-sie-w-wyczynowa-kamienie-w-lesie-laka-pszczyna https://i.imgur.com/sfWQcS4.png Its probably due to mass tree cutting by Lasy Państwowe in recent years, where govt body destroys forest roads with heavy machinery, then some times it get fixed using stones instead of proper crushed gravel.

2023.06.03 13:25 0xRaduan have been struggling to keep up with all news in AI lately. developed a tool to help me with that.
hi friends.
lately there have been too many things out there – everyone is becoming a content creator and keep posting multiple times a week, or even multiple times a day. I couldn't catch up with everything being posted out there and had a big FOMO instead of spending time productively.
I thought why not experiment and have AI go through all the content first, and then email summaries to me, so I can watch / read only useful things.
decreased watching time on youtube from 2-3 hours a day to around 1-2 videos a week. never was able to read all newsletters sent to me – now do that with ease.
built first version – showed to a bunch of my friends and they liked it. thought going to open it to a small public, so they can benefit from it as well, and I can improve it even further.
i don't really want to share a link here, as it will be considered as self-promotion. if you are curious – let me know, and maybe I can send it via dm to several people, again – just sharing the concept here, and open to different thoughts / suggestions.
p.s. it's my side project, and I plan to keep it free for as long, as it doesn't break my pocket :)

2023.06.03 13:24 VickersNorth Update: Buy-out started and I’m annoyed
I took everyone’s advice and agreed to the buy-out. I thought I might have time to get used to the idea, but right after I signed the contract, they said they could come the next day which seemed a little odd. I was still feeling OK about my decision until two minutes after they arrived, one of the employees yells, “We’re going to make a killing on all this stuff!”
Day 2 and one of the employees yanks open the locked door of an outbuilding when I was on my way with the key. So disrespectful and rude. It really irritated me and now my mood has really gone downhill especially when I see the greedy dollar signs in the business owner’s eyes as he makes sure to haul all the best stuff away first. The guy has always been an arrogant jerk who thinks he’s so much better than me - I just let him think that because honestly IDGAF what these people think and don’t want them knowing anything about my life - and I never wanted to use his services but there isn’t a lot of competition in the area. A lot of people sing his praises while an equal number think he’s just a bottom feeder who lowballs everybody. I will give him credit though for taking on the jobs a lot of people probably wouldn’t.
I know I got screwed but I still would have gotten screwed if I had tried selling the stuff myself. Plus, I would have had to deal with random yucks knowing where I live and coming to my house. Dealing with those people would’ve been way worse than this stuck-forever-in-high school person that I’ll never see again after this is over. I’m sure once everything is cleared away, I’ll eventually forget all about it and move on but right now I’m having a hard time. My friend who’s been through this herself told me to take a lot of pictures, which I did, and I realized I’m not going to miss any of it. I think what bothers me the most is knowing someone is profiting at my expense. It seems like I’m constantly paying people high prices for things - repairs, renovations, goods, etc. - but if I tried to charge high prices for anything, nothing would sell or no none would hire me.
TLDR; I know a lot of you are overjoyed once you are free of the hoard so how can I start feeling joy instead of anger?

2023.06.03 13:24 bookist626 What did the Marines gain in Marineford?
Honestly, maybe I'm misunderstanding, but it seems that, while a victory on its face, it seems the Marines lost far more than they gained at the end of the day.
For their trouble, they killed Ace and Whitebeard. Now, it doesn't seem they really got anything from their deaths.
I mean, killing a Yonko should really upset the balance of power, allowing them an opportunities to flex their political might. Give them an advantage since a major threat has been removed.
Instead, Blackbeard takes over and removes any benefit killing Whitebeard might have on a geopolitical level. Oh, and he left the Warlords, weakening the Marines.
As did Jimbei, but that probably would have happened anyway.
And despite the son of Roger and Whitebeard dying, there are now more pirates than ever! Thanks to Whitebeard, any discouragement from their deaths didn't happen!
Then you have two admirals that resign along with Garp. That has to hurt.
Impel Down also happened which not only freed a huge amount of prisoners, but it also freed Buggy and, well, all jokes aside, he is instrumental to Cross guild, something that wouldn't have happened without Marineford.
And finally, Marineford showed The Strawhats how they would never survive in the New World and that they had to train for two years instead of meeting in four days.
I might be missing some things, but ultimately, it seemed without Marineford, the Marines would be in a stronger position than they are now.

2023.06.03 13:22 pridetwo Four Grievances: Barrister and Mann - The Many Transgressions of a Soapmaker Who Would be a Perfumer
Introduction
I've been a part of this community for long enough that maybe 3 people recognize the color of my shave towels when I post on
/wicked_edge (they're purple). In
/wetshaving, I occasionally make dick jokes with
mammothben.
As a result, I've spent about an hour ruminating on this post and how to make the Maggard Meetup as awkward as possible. These are my memes and mine alone. I have rejected several cash offers to not post these findings, and I will not be stopped.
Grievance #1: Ending the Base Race
Background
In the before-fore times, the meta for soapmaking that every soapmaker followed was to get a handful of main scents that they keep the same, and release small tweaks to their soap base every 6 months to render the community's collection obsolete and generate a buying spree where people now had to get their favorite scents in the "latest and greatest" soap base.
Many consider this era the golden age of wetshaving, and Barrister and Mann was an active contributor to the base race. White Label/Black Label base, Glissant base, Latha base, Reserve base, Soft Heart base, and Excelsior base all helped encourage wetshavers across the world buy Seville multiple times in the hopes for better slickness, improved cushion (which is totally a thing), and the ultimate post-shave feel.
Then everything changed when the Omniberries attacked.
Omnibus
On September 29, 2021, a nuclear salvo was unleashed from the halls of barristerandmann.com. Leviathan was released in the Omnibus base, and soapmakers around the world waved the white flag on the base race.
Declaration Grooming's Milksteak, Sus Artisan Accoutrement's CK-6, Boob-label & Evans' Kaizen K2. These mainstays of American soap bases have remained stagnant ever since. Omnibus effectively ended the base race across the entire market, and led to the community consensus becoming "chase scents, not bases."
Why This Matters
This alone isn't problematic, having a stable set of great bases to choose from and allowing premiere soapmakers to focus on releasing more interesting scents in smaller batches is good for the community, for the industry, and the world.
The problem arises when old, established brands like Tabac take the end of the base race as a signal from the market that they can cut costs by moving their soaps onto to inferior bases. I'm not saying that it's Will's fault that tallow Tabac is now unobtanium, but you could make the argument that it's Will's fault that tallow Tabac is now unobtanium.
The Solution
The best way the community can address this issue is to write daily letters to Maurer & Wirtz that they need to bring back the tallow base for Tabac, and buy out Maggad Razors' stock of 4.1/4.2 base Saponificio Varesino soaps so they can restock everything in the 4.3 base.
Grievance #2: Financial Abuse
Background
Every few years, the copyright expiration date on Mickey Mouse looms near and Disney lobbies the US government to extend the copyright expiration date so that Disney can maintain their stranglehold on The Mouse, despite their eager use of public domain IP like Sherlock Holmes and King Arthur. Is Will literally Big Soap? I'm not saying he is, I'm just asking questions.
Mousse de Saxe
Will has a whole blog post on how he came about his formulation of Mousse de Saxe, and while it's a very interesting story and his formulation of MdS has become catnip for wetshavers, it's also become something of a crutch in his soapmaking. MdS features in Beadelaire, Full Measure of Man, Lavanille, Le Grand Chypre, and most recently in Vespers.
Why This Matters
Although many of us in the community have no thrill anymore, MdS remains the inimitable constant source of thrill at all of
/wetshaving cannot resist. L'appel du mousse is the compelling urge one feels to buy at least a sample (I just need a taste!) of Will's latest release featuring Mousse de Saxe. Will knows this fact about us. He knows it well. My sources tell me Will has bought several jetskis with the money he's earned from abusing this fact about us. And he can't keep getting away with it.
The Solution
Since the turn of the new millennium, sex strikes have proven effective in Colombia, The Phillippines, South Sudan, Togo, and elsewhere. By withholding that which their oppressors desire until behavior is changed, peace can be achieved. So to everyone at the Maggard Meetup, I call upon you to refrain from complimenting Will's scent-making until he releases Mousse de Saxe as a standalone dropper that can be added to soaps and aftershaves a la Declaration Grooming's menthol dropper. Si se puede!
Grievance #3: Olfactory Abuse
Background
It is at this point in the post that I must concede, Will is the superior meme-meister. This absolute madlad is at the gigabrain Dr. Manhattan level of the soapmaking world, except instead of moving to Mars he's decided to dead-ass fuck with us. Seville prints more money than the Nintendo Switch, he's got MdS for whenever he wants the cash to buy another jetski, and Omnibus ensures no other soapmaker will encroach on his soap base superiority. How do I know he's decided to stunt on our noses? Because of 2 scent notes.
Cilantro and Cum
Let's start with Cilantro. When the Four Horsemen series was announced, the wetshaving community was awash with curiosity and speculation about what each of the four horsemen would smell like. Would it be like how Noble Otter tackled the "Firefighter" theme without actually making a soap that smelled like a fire?
No. War would smell like an actual war crime. How does one scent a war crime? Apparently with Cilantro. I have it on good authority that Will devised the scent profile for War when eating tacos for taco tuesday and the topic of how cilantro tastes like soap to some people with a specific gene. "Well what would happen if I added an ingredient that tastes like soap to my actual soap?" and off he went. His friends and family didn't see him for days. The Cleveland Browns found a post-it note that had "Cilantro No Matter What" scribbled on it. And some time later, a scent that could curdle Wholly Kaw's Creme Fraiche base was brought to market. Will knew that we'd buy all 4 scents, get all matchy-matchy, and even dickhole the aftershaves. And then the SOTD's began. "My wife hates this," "my cat peed on the tub when I left it open to dry," "why has god forsaken me?" Guess who was laughing his ass off from Mars? Our very own Dr. Manhattan.
For those of us familiar with Pear Tree blossoms, they have a very particular scent. The kind of scent that makes guys inspect their pant leg and say "I'm fairly certain I didn't miss." The kind of scent that makes women think "Oh gross, honey I told you to change your underwear after last night." That's right, Pear Tree blossoms smell like cum. So when Will was considering what scent to re-release for Spring 2023, did he select fan favorite Paganini's Violin or the fruity fougere Passiflora? (Both of which he relased bath soaps for in February). No, he chose the cum soap. The soap that's supposed to remind you of the time you took a walk through Central Park and rounded a corner only to be accosted by a masturbating homeless man.
I tried to give Will the benefit of the doubt, and asked point blank "Is the pear blossom accord in Rhapsody going to be as, well... pear blossom-y as the original Rhapsody formulation?" to which he responded "Why would I change it?" He knew. He knew what he was doing when he originally released the soap, and he knew why I was asking if he had changed it in the re-release. Dr. Manhattan was laughing on Mars again.
Why This Matters
This matters because Will still hasn't re-released Roam and I need the matching aftershave in my life. There are only so many fresh tubs of Roam out there that
j33pguy13 can source for me. Instead, Will chooses to re-release Rhapsody and put together what may go down in history as the most infamous multi-scent meme soap release in history with the Four Horsemen. This is a personal attack on my love for Roam and I will not stand for it.
The Solution
Will, re-release Roam and all is forgiven.
Grievance #4: Feet
Preface
I'm a heterosexual male, but that shouldn't matter when it comes to shaving products or labels. Yes, we drank beer. My friends and I. Boys and girls. Yes, we drank beer. I liked beer. Still like beer. We drank beer.
The Problem
Lavender, Interrupted has been to Will as At the Mountains of Madness has been to Guillermo Del Toro. Everyone wants to see it. Will wants to make it. But the creative ambition of the project makes the promised project almost un-makeable. Lavender, Interrupted had been long promised as an evolution of the lauded Lavanille scent, but faced delays and reformulations, and further delays.
And now, today, many of you will go to the Maggard Meetup anticipating getting a full bottle or sample of the long awaited fragrance. And I can't say I'm not jealous.
I'm really jealous.
But lets wind the clock back to Tuesday March 21, 2023 and remember the Deals/New Products thread from that day.
"Happy Tuesday!
Just wanted to drop in quickly to let you all know that the Q2 2023 Release Schedule is now posted on our blog and that it features a sneak peek at a mockup for Lavender, Interrupted packaging."
Will wanted us to see the packaging. Not a new blog post on how he put the final touches on the fragrance. Not a picture of the bottle it would be sold in. He wanted us to see the picture of sexy feet he put on the box. He postponed Lavender, Interrupted and strung us along just so that his feet pics could get maximum exposure with minimum heat. Are those Will's feet on the box of Lavender, Interrupted? Why does will want us to see pictures of his feet in thigh-high stockings? I'm not saying they are Will's feet on the packaging of Lavender, Interrupted. I'm just asking questions.
The Solution
Nothing really to be done about this other than be mad about discovering new about ourselves. Just accept that we're all going to love this fragrance and that the box with sexy feet on it will be in many wetshavers' dens, delighting Will that his feet pics are going to be all over the sub's mail call threads for years to come.
Conclusion
I'm not sure why you read this far. It's lot to take in, I know. I'm intentionally avoiding a few smaller topics of less import, like... Night Music having poo notes. I'm not going to critique Will/Barrister and Mann beyond that, because it's already been established that he's straight up fucking with us with some of these scents and I am 100% here for it.
I've been wracked with guilt holding onto this knowledge while wetshavers around the world continue to buy Will's wonderful products, but I realized the potential hilarity of pointing out Will's sexy feet pics the morning of the Maggard Meetup was too much to pass up. My intention is just to meme on everyone tangentially related to what I've posted here, and to get Roam a proper re-release. I will not source any of my claims, and I expect you to do your own research. Take my word for it.
After all of this though, I am convinced that Will is an absolute gigachad in the wetshaving world. Please join me in encouraging Will to re-release Roam.
TL;DR Does this sub even have mods anymore? Why is this post still up?
