Playing hypothetical games like this are poisonous to a relationship. My advice is to not do that kind of thing anymore.

Until and unless they break up these predatory property management companies, anything they do push through won't be anywhere near enough.

Too bad medical science can't invent a killer virus that takes out right wing fundamentalists with pinpoint accuracy.

One of the top reasons I finally went Linux and I don't regret making the change one bit.

Oh Lawd, he comin'

I'm so freaking excited.

Good for you for listening, and good luck.

I'm speaking as a woman who's been hit on at work. We're paid to be nice to the customers and too many customers take it as some sort of come-on. It's uncomfortable to be put in that position and you should be thinking of her comfort at her place of business above your own desires if you're really into her.

It's not appropriate to ask a woman out when she's working. Service staff get hit on all day and they're just trying to work.

You can slip her your number if she shows up at your place of business and leave the ball in her court though. If she doesn't contact you then there's your answer.

Fun fact: in enthusiast circles they're known as skinny pigs.

I'm not. I was a moderator on one of the subs that got hassled by admin shenanigans and so I deleted my entire post history and closed my account and don't go there anymore.

I'm a relatively new player, been at it for three or four months now. I mostly play solo so I'm figuring things out on my own and sometimes it's slow going; I resort to googling things quite often because I don't quite understand what's going on. I've gotten up to MR14. Been unable to beat the MR15 test so far as I'm pretty bad at interceptions.

I finally decided to buckle down and do the New War quest over the weekend and I really enjoyed it. I liked all the different perspectives and switches to game play style, plus the lore and plot line were amazing. I finally understand what's going on in the game. But there were a few places I got stuck so I looked things up and saw how many posts there were by people complaining about the quest line and hating on it.

I found it to be pretty forgiving of an old(er) person whose reflexes, reaction time and visual processing are going to shit. The boss fights weren't that bad, really. Since I solo and haven't gotten anywhere near the kind of strength I see the Steel Path folks putting out when I'm grouped with them during Circuit, the purported tediousness folks were complaining about was just par for the course for how I usually do boss fights: run around like a chicken on fire and get off a shot or two occasionally until it's over. The four hours the quest is supposed to take was more like nine hours for me but all in all it wasn't too bad and I was able to finish it in time for Circuit.

Then I hopped into Kahl's Garrison and the first mission I got was Sneaky Sabotage and that was a bit of a slog because I didn't know WTF was going on and the deacons were everywhere. I did finish it, barely. I did the next one yesterday night and did much better. I like the different game mode and having to adapt to different rules of play. But again, I saw tons of people complaining about it during various web searches. I didn't see anyone talking about how they enjoyed either of those scenarios.

Surely there are other people out there that like some or all of this content? Or am I just the weirdo who's about to be downvoted to oblivion?

Well, now she knows he's not worth the trouble of the first date.

They can do it anyway, without threads being in the mix at all. Unfortunately the only way to be sure no corporation can scrape your data is to not be on the internet at all.

What have I done? (kbin.social)

What have I done?

I accidentally created a Sister of Parvos and I don't feel I was ready for it to happen. All of Venus is covered with a blue haze and the nodes are much higher level than they were before. I don't quite know what to do, tbh. I didn't even know a Sister had been created until I saw my money at the end of the mission was stolen by her.

I'm an older gamer so my reflexes aren't what they used to be. I have a Riven rifle mod but haven't been able to unveil it as I haven't been able to do the challenge yet (three head shots in one aim glide). I've got quite a few warframes including a few primes, but not a huge array of weapons. I also mostly solo the game so I don't have a group to help me with this.

Is there a way to get Venus cleared so it's useable again? I know I'm not going to be able to kill this interloper for a while yet but if I can get Venus clear she can lurk in the Void forever as far as I'm concerned. or at least until I'm strong enough to deal with her.
