2023.03.30 17:19 missmama19 Another Failure
I have ADHD as well as GAD, PTSD, dermatillamania and depression.
I have now tried adderall, Ritalin and Vyvanse and they all really mess me up. My anxiety gets so bad, I fight constant panic attacks and my skin picking skyrockets. My body feels very uncomfortable on stimulants.
We recently started clonidine (helps with rapid thoughts and overwhelm a little bit) and tried to pair it with the vyvanse to see if I could handle a stimulant paired with Clonidine. I can’t. The constant sensation of anxiety is unbearable.
I feel so lost and hopeless. So sad. Even my Dr said “I just don’t think there is a good drug for you” :( Am I just a lost cause?
I just want to function. So bad. But every ADHD stimulant makes me feel so awful.
Is there anyone else with severe ADHD that can’t take the stimulant medication? Is there a different drug that you’ve had success with that I can talk to my dr about? Or a supplement?
Feels like I’m fighting a losing battle here and I could really use some guidance.

2023.03.30 17:19 SignExpert3240 Haven't played the game in 2-3 years. How has the game changed in that time? How necessary are Leviathan, Origins and Lions of the North?
Now I remember Leviathan, I already stopped playing the game by that point but I was active in this community still and I know the update that came along with Leviathan was awful. I'm assuming those issues have been fixed since it's been 2 years(time flies) but how do you rate the DLC in its importance? When I was playing, Art of War(especially), Rights of Men and maybe Common Sense were the most important ones. I doubt the situation there changed, but how does Leviathan rate among all DLC nowadays? I'm probably gonna pick it up on a discount when I get the chance anyway.
I'm assuming both Origins and Lions of the North add flavor to Africa and Scandinavia respectively and are mostly contained within those regions rather than affecting the whole game right? Making them not very universal in their usefulness. I might pick them up on a discount.
Other than that, how has the game changed the last 3 years? I barely remember playing with mission trees, I played a couple of games but that was around the time I quit playing I think. Anything I should look out for? I'd appreciate a quick guide on how I should optimally play. Thanks!

So it was a two year relationship, almost 3 we had good and bad moments, like every relationship out there, I’ll do anything there is posible for us to get back together, but I also understand things happen and every story has an end, it was like 3 weeks ago and she just called me on the phone and told me it was over, I’ve tried talking to her for and she just won’t pick up, when she does she just says she is busy or something like that, what should I do?

2023.03.30 17:18 Still-Corner-360 NJ: Transferring Equipment Protects from Bankruptcy?
Hi,
I have a hypothetical question that I'm looking for advice on.
My family business is located in New Jersey, they are a metals manufacturer. Let's call them Metals Co for the sake of this question. Most of the business's assets consist of milling equipment used for the manufacturing process. I am not involved directly with the business, but help out in a consultative capacity. The business is not doing very well financially at the moment.
While I'm not afraid of imminent bankruptcy, it is a possible scenario down the road. Hypothetically, I'm wondering how it would be viewed if I were to set up an LLC which Metals Co would then sell key pieces of equipment to for a nominal sum. I'd then turn around and lease the equipment back to them for, again, a nominal amount. Since I do not have any vested interest in Metals Co and would strictly hold the LLC that owns the equipment, would this protect the equipment in a bankruptcy proceeding against Metals Co, since it is now owned by a LLC that has no debt, and Metals Co strictly leases it?
My extended family has extensive experience and knowledge in this area of metallurgy and the goal here would be that, should Metals Co fail, the younger generation would have the capital equipment needed to start over. There is a high barrier to entry in this space without already possessing this equipment, due to the cost to acquire and install it.
I know this may sound like a "dumb" question and am fully ready for the ensuing mockery; just trying to come up with ideas.

Tali back in the first mission what?
Well the dialogue made doing that side quest in 1 worth it.
Wait only one try for bypass. but I want the loot.
Okay the galaxy view control is different. Fuel stations?
I miss my unlimited free gas from 1
Where is the equipment and armor equip Option in the menu from 1?
So that’s where those annoying things in mass effect 3 came from?
Do my squad mates still use power automatically or do I have to pick it manually?
Back at the Citadel wait Kasumi recruited that easily? You would think a master thief would be more difficult. Let hope the rest of the recruitment process go as smoothly.

2023.03.30 17:17 Tirras Grocery Delivery
Is there anyway on the app to know if the DoorDash driver has to do the shopping at a store or if they pick up a completed order? I saw that recently added Aldi's and have tried a couple orders from them but I feel weird about having a delivery driver have to go in and do the shopping.
The automatic % it suggests seems ridiculously low for the effort involved in having to go in and actually pick everything out so I usually just pay what I think its worth to not have to do it myself/all the extra time they have to spend rounding it up. I tipped $25 on a $65 order, but its Aldi's, it was at least a few bags worth of groceries.
How do you feel about those deliveries versus just picking up a fastfood order?

2023.03.30 17:16 StepwiseUndrape574 Grand Theft Auto V Loads Up To 92 Percent Faster On PS5 Than PS4 In Early Tests
Grand Theft Auto V is notable for all kinds of reasons. It's the most expensive video game ever made, and also one of the very most successful, by any measure. It sold so well that Rockstar kept the online service for the 7th-generation (PS3 and Xbox 360) releases of the game going from release in 2013 until late last year. It had moved over 150 million copies as of last August, in fact.
That number has surely gone up since then, and it's probably going to continue going up for years to come thanks to the updated re-release that's now available on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles. We've already written about what's included in the re-release, but the short version is that it adds higher-quality assets, ray-traced lighting, and 60 FPS options to the exclusively-30-FPS console releases.
ssd sony ps5 2
Unfortunately, another notable aspect of GTA V is its interminable loading times, especially on the consoles. Well, arguably the biggest change this console generation has been the move to solid-state storage instead of the spinning rust used previously. Both families of 9th-generation game consoles support disk I/O tens of thousands of times faster than the 8th-generation consoles.
Naturally the new release of GTA V reaps the benefits of that in its load times. Over at IGN, they put the new release through its paces and found that load times are drastically improved across the board. Selecting "replay mission" can find load times as much as 75% faster on the new system, while loading autosaves was slashed from over two minutes to around 20 seconds on Sony's latest machine.
ign gtav ps5 loading
As showcased in IGN's video, the difference upon starting a new game is even more mind-blowing. On the PlayStation 4, it took 2 minutes and 18 seconds to load from the menu to the new-game heist sequence. Performing the same operation on the PlayStation 5 took just eleven seconds. The player was able to get halfway through the mission on the PS5 by the time the older system finished loading.
We feel it's likely that this enormous improvement isn't merely the work of the fancy SSD, but also that of the PS5's potent Zen 2 CPU cores as well as some software optimizations. Players of GTA Online may recall that an enterprising developer found a simple optimization (arguably, a bugfix) that slashed loading times by 75%. Rockstar even paid out a bug bounty to the developer.
We still haven't heard back from Rockstar on when or if these improvements will be finding their way to the PC version of the game, nor whether there will be a charge for the update if they do. It seems likely that Rockstar is gauging the playerbase's reaction to such a thing. You can pick up the refreshed release on PS5 for $10 right now, or on Xbox Series XS for $20, but both prices will rise to $40 after three months, so get while the getting's good if you're not willing to wait a few years for GTA 6.

2023.03.30 17:16 Luminoustygian Lucy's Prom Date
Lucy's prom date came to pick her up in a black limousine. She'd been waiting for him by her bedroom window.
She sighed as she wondered for how long she had fantasized the dazzling evening that was soon to come.
When her date arrived, he knelt down and gently kissed her her hand.
Lucy giggled as she blushed furiously. Who would've thought that there were still boys who did that in this day and age?
"You look beautiful," He complimented as he escorted her to the ride.
When Lucy got in, she was slightly wistful that her date wasn't Jordan from the swim team, who she'd been crushing on for years.
The boy in front of her was far from a bad date though. With his tousled hair, sincere gaze and deep dimples, there was something to him that made him special.
When his eyes met hers, Lucy was afraid that she'd fallen in love.
To ease her pounding heart, Lucy tried to start a conversation.
"Look!" She said, pointing at the playground they were passing by, "That's where mom used to bring me after school. As a kid, I loved to just climb up that tower and declare myself king. I'd even get into fights with other kids for the title!"
Lucy's date chuckled and replied, "I didn't know that you were so rowdy."
"I was! Though... I couldn't go out much anymore after I was diagnosed..."
Lucy quickly cut herself off before continuing, "I mean, it wasn't that bad... I'm going out for prom, after all!"
Her date simply replied with a smile.
"I think I saw you there before," He said later, when they passed by the town's bowling alley, "Can you tell me more about that?"
"That was where I got my first job!" Lucy exclaimed, "Oh, and you see those shops? I used to spend everything I earned there!"
Lucy couldn't help it. She babbled and rambled on every time they passed by somewhere in the town— About her life, her memories.
Her date didn't complain, merely listening attentively to everything she said.
Lucy was bursting with excitement when they reached her school, ready to step out and immerse herself into the night she had been looking forward to.
But the limousine drove by.
Lucy's heart dropped.
"We're not going to prom, are we?" She asked.
"No, we're not."
At that moment, Lucy remembered. She wasn't waiting for a prom date.
When the limousine stopped, it was already night outside.
Her date stepped out and extended his hand.
"Shall we have a dance before you go?" He invited, face gleaming under the moonlight
Lucy didn't cry when her hand clasped his. There was an odd feeling in her chest.
It wasn't love.
It was acceptance.
Death came to pick her up in a black limousine. She'd been waiting for him by her bedroom window.

2023.03.30 17:16 wild_biologist 2013 Astra - is a new gearbox and clutch economical?
2013 Astra SE Sports Tourer (1.6L petrol A16 XER) - 105k miles
Gearbox bearings are going and the solution is a new gearbox and clutch. Inclusive of labour and VAT it's £1550.
I'm usually pretty good at judging these things, but I can't tell if it would be stupid to do this or not? Feel free to tell me if I'm an idiot for even considering it.
Pros:
- Used car market is high so I'd paying over the odds to replace
- SE spec is good and otherwise been a good car (right size for us, comfy, nice to drive)
Cons:
- Repair cost is essentially the value of the car
- Could pick up a cheapo used run-around for not that much more money
Other:
- Some of the cost is offset by the value the repair adds to the car
- Probably need new suspension arm in next 0-2 years. Other things could go wrong.
- Only doing around 7k miles a year, unlikely to go up massively

I’m super new to hunting and just picked up a Bergara B-14 HMR .308... Now I need a scope. After researching for 3 months I’ve honed in on the Tract Toric in 2.5-15x44 FFP/MOA. I will only occasionally hunt white tail and try testing it out in longer range target shooting for fun. My question is, is this magnification overkill/under for my application?

2023.03.30 17:15 DOOManiac Should I tell my mom's friends she has Dementia?
My mom was recently diagnosed with Dementia. And of course, since she has Dementia, she doesn't know she has Dementia. If you only speak to her for 5-10 minutes, you may not even pick up on it if you aren't looking for it.
Occasionally I speak to friends and acquaintances of hers, either because they are concerned, or because I'm now taking an active role in managing her entire life (such as me dialing up her financial advisor who she's known for 20 years). They always ask how she is and I'm hesitant to divulge her diagnosis; but sometimes I feel I have to to explain why they are talking to me and not her.
I feel conflicted on whether or not to share the information. On one hand I feel it is sometimes needed, especially when dealing with her finances; or that very close friends of hers should know, so they know what's going on when they see or speak with her. But on the other hand its kind of a private thing and I hate to out this rest-of-her-life-long medical condition she's now suffering from.

2023.03.30 17:14 GANdeK Cooler Master MM712 first impressions
Photo
Sound test
Picked up the MM712 from Microcenter yesterday, here are some quick first impressions:
Shape/weight: Shape is identical to the MM710/711 I still have my 711 Wilderness to compare, so il be referencing that at times. It's a really good shape for my 18.5x9 hands (claw grip) though i wish it was slightly thinner at the grip width. If you have wider hands though this might actually be perfect for you. Weight is advertised at 56g and the weight balance is slightly towards the back. For the coating it feels "chalky" on the white similar to a Viper V2 Pro.
Sensor position: This deserves its own part as I'm usually not a fan of higher sensor positions. I couldn't get used to it on the Orochi V2 for example, but I'm pleasantly surprised how I'm not minding it on the MM712. This was easily my biggest concern when purchasing the mouse, and it's a total non-issue thankfully. I'm not sure why exactly though.
SensoWireless: Uses a 3370 and it feels implemented very well. Good overall wireless performance as well, no issues with it and polling rate is nice and stable. Updated and tested on latest firmware right away.
Feet: Feel fine out the box but they need to be broken in i feel like.
Now for the issues :/
Build quality/QC: My unit is absolutely horrendous unfortunately. I have a ton of side flexing on both sides and the mouse creaks like an old staircase. I also have issues with my scroll wheel which I'll get into next.
Buttons: M1 and M2 feel pretty good, as well as M4 and M5. They have above average tactility which is pretty good for opticals on M1 and M2. Scroll wheel itself is fairly light with not well defined steps, it's ok for general use. My deal breaking issue is just how terrible the middle mouse is to click. It feels extremely mushy like i have to fight to get it to press in.
In conclusion i will be returning the mouse and trying something else as the overall build quality is poor on my unit. My MM711 actually feels better surprisingly as it has a good scroll wheel and no side flex/creaking. This isn't to say your experience will be the same and if you get a good unit this mouse feels like it would be pretty good. Ill just keep using my MM711 whenever i want to get into this shape.

Sensor position: This deserves its own part as I'm usually not a fan of higher sensor positions. I couldn't get used to it on the Orochi V2 for example, but I'm pleasantly surprised how I'm not minding it on the MM712. This was easily my biggest concern when purchasing the mouse, and it's a total non-issue thankfully. I'm not sure why exactly though.
SensoWireless: Uses a 3370 and it feels implemented very well. Good overall wireless performance as well, no issues with it and polling rate is nice and stable. Updated and tested on latest firmware right away.
Feet: Feel fine out the box but they need to be broken in i feel like.
Now for the issues :/
Build quality/QC: My unit is absolutely horrendous unfortunately. I have a ton of side flexing on both sides and the mouse creaks like an old staircase. I also have issues with my scroll wheel which I'll get into next.
Buttons: M1 and M2 feel pretty good, as well as M4 and M5. They have above average tactility which is pretty good for opticals on M1 and M2. Scroll wheel itself is fairly light with not well defined steps, it's ok for general use. My deal breaking issue is just how terrible the middle mouse is to click. It feels extremely mushy like i have to fight to get it to press in.
In conclusion i will be returning the mouse and trying something else as the overall build quality is poor on my unit. My MM711 actually feels better surprisingly as it has a good scroll wheel and no side flex/creaking. This isn't to say your experience will be the same and if you get a good unit this mouse feels like it would be pretty good. Ill just keep using my MM711 whenever i want to get into this shape.
2023.03.30 17:14 grocktops Deck Guide: Building a Deck around Starhound Pack
In this guide, we will be exploring how to MAXIMIZE the potential of a particular card that doesn't normally see a whole lot of play: Starhound Pack. We're gonna completely disregard meta relevance; the deck doesn't have a consistent win condition, but it's a fun one to try out if you enjoy making big numbers for its own sake.
Star of the Show: Starhound Pack (SP)
4-cost units have a lot of variance in their stat lines, so it's fortunate that SP start off with a decent one. 2 Power isn't good but can be swiftly remedied. 5 health is solid, enough to ensure that SP can pretty safely survive for multiple rounds. SP's effect is related to its only keyword, Fated; SP Fated buffs are shared across all copies of SP, meaning the first time you target each copy of SP each round, all copies of SP everywhere gain +1/+1. With enough fated buffs, copies of SP can snowball their stats and eat Thralls for breakfast. In order to maximize the value of this effect, this deck has two primary functions; target copies of SP repeatedly and make more copies of SP. SP's own region, Targon, can handle most of the work of the first function, while the second will be handled by another region, Piltover & Zaun.
Partner in Crime
Since there aren't many tools for searching copies of SP out of the deck, we usually have to rely on drawing them. Rather than investing into more draw power, we can use another unit that also synergizes with the tools we're using on SP. Appropriately enough, the best ally for our dogs are cats, namely Curious Kitten (CK). CK has a good statline for a 2-cost unit, 2/3, but created copies of CK have GREAT statlines, 4/4, making them cheap and effective tools for both offense and defense. Additionally, their effect to draw on summon helps us search out more copies of SP.
Strategy
Use PnZ copy tools to create additional copies of SP, which will then receive many buffs from Targon targeting tools. If we can't find copies of SP, stall with CK.

Treat Champions as support or a backup plan rather than a core part of the deck.

Copy Tools
Recommended:
- Iterative Improvement. Hands down the best option, fulfills the two main functions of the deck instantly and tops it off with another +1/+1 to boot. Using on enemy followers is less cool but can be a good option if you're not drawing what you need. Also works well with CK.
- Practical Perfectionist. Helps to search out SP and CK while also making more copies of them.
- Shady Character. Like Iterative Improvement, fulfills the two main functions of the deck and can be used to copy enemy followers if necessary, though the cost is awkward and the timing can be taken advantage of.
- Counterfeit Copies. Makes copies, which is what we want, but can easily brick your hand.
- Evil Imperfectionist. Same as above, but with the additional difficulty of being a 4-cost, which the deck already has too many of. Has a decent statline. Note: Counterfeit Copies and Evil Imperfectionist are best used in combination since they both make exact copies, so they can make the most of Evil Imperfectionist's cost-reduction effect. For example, using Iterative Improvement on a CK, then using Evil Imperfectionist on that CK effectively shuffles 4 Enraged Yetis into your deck that each draw 1 on summon.
- Discreet Invitation. You're really not that desperate for more copies of Shady Character, and Chempunk Shredder isn't that useful.
- Parade Electrorig. Too slow at making copies to be useful. Maybe if it had a better statline.
- Chief Mechanist Zevi. Too expensive, too awkward, especially in combination with CK.
- Hextech Transmogulation. Too expensive, too situational.
Recommended
- Gift Giver, Mountain Goat. SP like Gems for the extra power and taking advantage of their big Health values.
- Guiding Touch. SP like the healing, the draw is quite nice, and can be used on your Nexus in a pinch.
- Celestial Blessing, Purifying Flames. If you want to put more focus on CK, use these in combination with Counterfeit Copies and Evil Imperfectionist. If you're nuts, throw Destiny's Call in there too.
- Lunari Cultist. Good if you want more Gems and like using Equipment, but 1/3's a bad statline for a 2-cost.
- Pale Cascade. Draw power good, Nightfall timing's not that hard to play around. Gets better if used with Taric.
- Wandering Shepherd. Was recommended before the Health nerf. Still very good, SP like to have new keywords.
- The Darkin Harp. Quick Attack's not a great keyword for SP but isn't unwelcome, and Styraatu can be useful in longer games.
- Iula. Spellshield and Overwhelm and both good for SP.
- Blinded Mystic. Silence is good.
- Bastion. Good for countering removal and combo-ing with Taric, but too expensive for a lot of scenarios actually. It's usually ok to lose a SP to a removal spell, you can just make more copies. Consider The Expanse's Protection if you like Equipment.
- Mentor of the Stones, Shards of the Mountain, Freed Colossus. Too expensive and slow at making Gems.
- The Darkin Lodestone. Doesn't do much for SP.
- Astral Protection. SP absolutely do not need that much more Health.
- Any targeting spell that only grant stats.
Treat Champions as support or a backup plan rather than a core part of the deck.
Recommended
- Taric. Probably the best option, gets more value out of target tools.
- Pantheon. Reliably levels up thanks to target tools, but you want to be using those tools on SP rather than him.
- Soraka. Level up is feasible if you take a lot of Gem generation. Draw power is nice, healing makes SP's big health even better, but doesn't synergize with most of the deck.
- Kayle. Usually won't accomplish much, but can be a potent finisher in longer games.
- Victor. Too slow.
- Yuumi. Redundant.
- Ekko. Bad.

2023.03.30 17:14 SimbaTheSavage8 The Little Tea Shop in Kyoto
It has been there for as long as anyone can remember, tucked away somewhere in the outskirts of Kyoto, yet far away from the streets where the heart beats.
It is sandwiched between a ramen shop and a convenience store. Painted a deep, muddy brown, the same as every one on the street; the door was always locked and the shutters always down, giving the impression it is always closed. An old run-down signs hangs over the door, proclaiming how good the tea was in faded Japanese and English.
In the daytime such is the tea shop, lost and abandoned and alone. The locals know better to speak of the place, let alone visit it; even the tourists avoid it like the plague.
But at night a single customer will walk into the tea shop, and never come out.
I have been watching this tea shop for so long I’m easily mistaken for a statue. I’ve always wanted to go inside. From my observations and notes I have gathered that the tea shop picks its own customers. They walk slowly to the shop, face red and eyes wide, head slightly to the side.
As if listening to something
I’ve been looking out for whatever it is. Placed my ear up against the wall, gone to sleep in the quiet hours when the only sound is my heart beating and the crickets chirping. But there has been nothing.
It’s like we were never meant to be.
So I dream of bitter green tea slithering down my throat and warming my insides like a crackling fireplace, and soft and bouncy mochi, and longed for nothing else.
Until that one fateful night. And somehow I know it’s the one I have been listening out for.
A soft but long whistle, as sweet as mermaids singing in the sea, calling my name.
I have never rushed over so fast in my life.
I swing open the door to find everything ready—green tea on the table, still piping hot, mochi and chiffon cake on silver platters, cushions plump and welcoming. It smells good. So good. My stomach is growling.
But the walls are made out of bones and the mats are made out of skin and the tea is turning slowly from green to red…
And…are those bodies hanging from the ceiling?
Laughter echoes from deep within the shop, making the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.
The door slams shut.

2023.03.30 17:13 ARC-7652 Is it possible to flip more that North Carolina and Georgia as Obama in 2012?
I know it would be insanely unrealistic but I was wondering if it could happen. My best result as Obama had me winning Georgia by less than 1% after pouring all visits into it. Is there any way to pick up Missouri?
