2024.05.29 09:54 SnooCrickets3850 The one that got away
So I don’t know how to start this but I meet this girl on a dating app and we were talking, everything was amazing even the first time we met up. She spent the night over because she was too drunk to drive home so was I, I was very hesitant because this person at that time was a stranger but we just vibe so well. After that day we just keep hanging out and exploring places in SD. I got to really get to know this person so well and deeply that we had so much in common, Music, ideas, etc.
I started to like this girl so much but the only thing I didn’t like was she was talking to her ex still but for a reason. She had to pay him back for rent which I thought It was totally fine but it started to get to a point where she was like “ugh he is just pissing me off and I can’t take this with him.” Also she would bring up certain things with him to me which I thought was weird to me because even though I knew they lived with each other about two years ago and broke up a year ago.
I never seen somebody talk about their ex so much even though it was all bad things about him but even still have contact with him. I would kinda tease her about it sometimes like “oh sounds like you guys are still together.” She denies it and says fucker I like you not him anymore but it got to a point I would say stuff like that out of concern which one day, we had a conversation about it and she said I would bring him up all the time.
I never dealt with that before, so even though I know this is wrong I went on a the same dating app I found her on and was looking and I saw her sister friend at the time. I didn’t know the friend at the time so I swipe on her and we didn’t match but I get a call from the girl I was talking to and she was telling me how could I do this and everything else, which she is right I should of never done that. I just felt like she was so drawn on her ex and having conversations with him that I was going try and see what else was out there but after that we came to a agreement on just keep talking to each other.
Months go by and we fall for each other, we aren’t in a relationship yet because I just feel so doubtful that it could work because in my mind she is still talking to her ex. She wants to be my girlfriend but I just kept telling her let’s wait because of the ex stuff, I didn’t tell her that but she got it. We have each others location and spring break comes, I don’t know what happened but my location stops working for her.
I leave to go back home. She gets worried about not seeing it and wants to fix it and I tried to fix it but it wouldn’t work for me even showing her that it didn’t but then I told her I’m going to be spending time with my family because I never get to see them because I play college football. she got that but it’s also my fault because I spent so much time with them and didn’t text her as much when I was back at home.
My birthday is in spring break so I got gifts from my family but I got crocs that had I heart N which was from my mom which represented my uncle who passed, His name started with a N. she’s worried that I might have a another girl back home. I tried telling her I don’t but I wanted her to come over since I was gone for a week and she had gifts for my birthday that past so everything was good.
She is over my place and is fine with staying until I got back from practice so I left then I get text messages from my family friend telling me she is texting her on instagram and somehow gets her phone number. I couldn’t go back home to ask why she is doing that since I was already at practice but after practice I call her and she is literally back at her house and telling me that I lied to her and that she is done with me.
She literally took an edible and drove home which I think is crazy but she is so high and I tell her, What is going on and she says I have proof of you lying to me and I told her send it to me. She takes forever to send it but she sends it to me and it’s my crocs with the N. She tries to say my family friend is the girl so we go back and forth but then she realize that it wasn’t and says sorry for leaving and she also got in an argument with her mom.
I tell her that we need to just slow down we are just dating and you are doing crazy things. She agrees and we kinda slow down, after this she is still stalking my family friend. she doesn’t know that my family friend has a boyfriend and keeps looking at her stories and thinks it’s me so she jumps to conclusions and breaks up with me. I keep tryna tell her it’s not me and she keeps saying it is but we come to a agreement again and she asks me why do I still wanna date her when she’s done that, I tell her I just like her so much and wanna see how far it can go.
This is true and still is because this is still fresh. weeks later she is having conversations with her ex but she already told him that she wants me and not him anymore. he didn’t wanna let go and she was just paying him back the money she owed him but he started to make conversation with her and they were just talking like friends. Couple weeks ago he confessed to her about wanting her back and wants her to drop me and come back to him but they have a long bad history and she told him “I’m not doing that to him, I want him in my life not you just move on.”
He literally pass out or something while driving because he wasn’t getting sleep or something and she calls me and tells me everything that went on and all that shit made me so mad. she still was talking to him because I knew he would do something like that but he gives her a ultimatum of it’s either me or him. She told me that and tells him the next day I’m sticking with him. She couldn’t and wouldn’t go back to that place he put her in so after that I’m pissed off about that whole shit and keeping contact with him.
A week ago, my family friends car stops working so she asks me to take her to target to get stuff and I did because why wouldn’t I help. I do that and we are just laughing and talking then I take a picture of her with my crocs half way in it and she posted it but next thing that happens is I get a text from the girl. She says fuck you, bye then blocks me and it hurt so fucking much like I still think about it and tried to tell her, I wasn’t doing anything with my family friend but I was blocked.
I start to post on my story and she just watches them and not saying anything. I don’t say anything as well but then she posts something about karma is coming for the people that lied to her and did her wrong which hurt because I truly wasn’t doing nothing. I didn’t wanna text her because I was still shocked that she would do that then days go by and she stops watching it.
I saw she keep going public and private on instagram so when she opened it again I like some new pictures of her then she texts and delete. I asked her what did she say and she said why am I liking her shit and I need to stop because my little girlfriend isn’t going like that like just being so petty. She tells me that she is going block me on Instagram too so I started feeling sad and told her don’t let me just talk to her.
I wasn’t even home, I was literally in a different state for a family trip which was two days ago but I tell her everything that I love her and wanna fix it. I don’t wanna lose her but she tells me she isn’t changing her mind and I’m begging her because I truly love this girl but we come to somewhat an agreement of seeing each other Tuesday. I got back in the state so I text her and tell her my flight is going be late maybe let me stay over at her place because I know her mom a little and her mom likes me.
I told her maybe I could do that and we can just talk but then she tells me that’s not a good idea and she isn’t doing that so I keep trying and trying but she says we can talk on the phone when I land so I said fine I’m cool with that. I landed and I was about to text her that I landed, can we talk now but before I went on instagram to see if she unfollowed people because I just couldn’t stop thinking about her being with someone else. I see she blocked me on instagram so I go to text her phone number and I was blocked too.
I had a whole letter for her and she hasn’t even seen it because I sent it after the messages went green but it just hurts so much because I want this girl like she just matches me. This just happened two days ago,I am really hurting bad. I don’t know what to do I feel so alone but I just want her bad like what can I do and I know the story is everywhere but it’s so hard to type this out. I don’t know if anyone wants to hear all of it, maybe I can make a discord or something but I don’t know what to do and I don’t want nobody else but her.

2024.05.29 09:51 Wild-Dog8968 Is it weird to hit up a childhood friend?
Hello all I feel slightly embarrassed turning to the internet for advice but I don’t have friends and I need advice.
Just a brief summary about me I feel like it’s somewhat important I am a fairly shy guy especially around girls so engaging in conversation first is not my strong suit at all.
Anyway there’s this girl she’s hella cute we weren’t friends I don’t think but we talked and she knew me in middle school but nothing crazy had some classes together but we never really hung out. one day in our music class we watched a movie and I sat next to her and she was talking to me and I want to say she jokingly put her leg on my leg but to this day idk if it was her showing interest in me or not.
Fast forward it’s middle school graduation and I show up to the place I am early so there’s not a lot of kids and this girl pops up out of nowhere and we say hi to each other and walk in talking the whole time and asking what high schools were going to and what not finally at the end she found me again to say goodbye and gave me a hug.
And that was 7 years ago so now basically I came across her profile on social media(I am not a stalker) and honestly she’s still hella cute and honestly I liked her back in middle school but never made a move and seeing her now I want to I guess talk to her and as weird as it sounds to try and make a move.
My thing though is is it okay to hit her up after so long?I am nervous she might have boyfriend or get weirded out I am trying to talk to her after such a long time and what to I even say if I decide to text her?I just need some help I still really like her.

2024.05.29 09:50 fleshlightpotato Am I the only one seeing a difference?
 | My boyfriend found a thread on here about a solution for my intense lag spikes. It involves typing in /gldevice:Vulkan in the steam properties, it works wonders for removing the lag, I can use the rainbow rod now without it dropping to 7 fps and play on steady high quality. But something is really bothering me, it might just be my neurodivergence but the colors look different. The first picture is when I start the game without steam (extreme lag) and the second picture is when I start Terraria through steam with the Vulkan command (no lag!). I love my MacBook and it’s intense color capacity but now it all looks gray, dull and monotonous which frankly is making me want to stop playing. I can’t afford to switch back to the laggy version so I’m wondering if someone has a solution that makes it a bit better. I’ve already tried Trippy and Color settings but it doesn’t matter, it’s on Color in the second picture and White on the first. I’m desperate and would appreciate any form of help. Thank you… submitted by fleshlightpotato to Terraria [link] [comments] |
2024.05.29 09:50 PipeOld5458 It's been a week
I don't know if this is the right sub since I'm not even sure if they really are ghosting me but I just hope to vent out here.
The frustration has been building up these past few days and it's been only a week. It's nothing compared to what you guys went through. But even so,it hurts like hell. Everyday,I feel like I can't take it anymore. I love you,so so much I tell myself I'll wait for you no matter how long it takes but the truth is I'm that weak. But I hope you know that I'm still trying. Not going strong but still,I hope you know I'm trying.
This happened once before around November or December last year. They were gone about 5 days and came back on the fifth. They told me that their phone was broken and at that time they didn't have a laptop yet so I completely understand that you text me at all in the past 5 days.
Now,it happened again. But this time I know they already have a laptop. I know they didn't block me as I can see their Whatsapp profile picture but when I send a text,it'll a one tick. Their telegram also said something like 'last seen a week ago'. I'm wondering how someone could live that long without internet. And what are the odds that their phone and laptop is broken at the same time?
I'm so anxious,all the time. I check every damn minute to see whether you're online or not. I miss you
I don't know how long should I wait more but I want to wait. I have to. I can't live without them

2024.05.29 09:45 Solid_Grape5248 Aita for breaking up with my boyfriend 3times in one month?
My boyfriend 30 and I saw 30 have been together for a little over a month. We fell fast and hard for each other and I honestly don’t know where I’d be without him. I am a very emotional person and sometimes he can consistently be in his level of chill. I would move mountains for him And I just wonder why he can’t seem to keep his phone charged? The fact of the matter is he is very outside of the tech world, and I’m very much into all my apps TikTok, Facebook Instagram, you name it. this man got an iPhone for me just to stay in touch via FaceTime and all the other quirks that come with it. I think it’s a way to be connected with the world and he sees it as all distractions. To many it is, others not much? so of course he’s never found it important to have a charger with him. we keep coming to the same issue which is his phone dies and I stay worried. He is one to be a gentleman and drop me off at the airport and and suddenly decides that he might as well catch a flight on his own too. He gets a beer out of and gets locked up in airport jail and I didn’t even know that was a thing.So I’m in the air while He decides to call my cousin and fill her in on his new travel arrangements. I guess he just moves that way and he can go with little to nothing in his pocket and just find a way. I need travel arrangements, itinerary and I already overslept, overpacked and pay too much for luggage that I eventually pay a hobo to help with my baggage. Literally and figuratively. Anyhow, I was involved in a car accident that I am happy to walk away from. I think that it’s important when your partner is an a and has suffered from a concussion that you are just a phone call away that doesn’t happen with us because his phone is always off or dead, same thing am I so wrong to have this level of concern? I only care about where he is because who knows if he’s an airport jail and who knows what he got himself into? It’s all coming from a place of concern? So, in the midst of my concussion I’ve been lashing out at him for not answering his phone for him being mad at his girlfriend calling him 15 times and I just wanna make sure he’s alive. And also in my concussion days, I need to move out in a few days before I get an eviction. I also invited him to a wedding where he would meet all my family work came first which is fine but I don’t want to go somewhere and see other people happy in their love life, while I’m trying to cultivate my own. am I mad? Yeah, a little bit. I just really wish that you took priority of just even sending a text back helping me move when he knows I was entered in this accident. Also, come check on me? We live several street away from each other they keep running into the question of whether I’m doing the most? This is all on my microphone text because I’m still in suffering of the concussion and I don’t have the bandwidth to look at my screen. Am I being a bad girlfriend?

2024.05.29 09:44 Expensive_Pumpkin_77 My friend told me i sound rude and uninterested when i’m not!! Need advice.
Ok, so here’s the context: I live in India and recently went back to school after literally four years away. I’m 16 now, and it was a mix of excitement and nerves when I met all my old friends, who used to be like brothers to me. One of my friends and I had a very long conversation, which I thought went really well. However, later he texted me, saying he felt like I wasn’t acknowledging what he said and that I sounded uninterested. This was surprising to me because I felt like I had one of the best talks of my life.
I realized that my social skills might be lacking, especially since I’ve been isolated for the past four years. I want to make new friends and build strong connections at school. I need practical guidance that works in real life, not just some one-liners for small talk. How can I improve my facial expressions and body language to show genuine interest? Are there any drills or exercises that can help? Any advice on improving my social skills would be greatly appreciated.

This could be an attempt to access a blocked website or the use of specific keywords in emails or chats. These alerts allow for swift interventions and potential disciplinary actions.

These reports can be customized based on specific criteria and timeframes, providing valuable insights for making informed decisions regarding employee management and resource allocation.

Pricing Options and Considerations

- Basic Plan: This plan caters to individuals or small businesses with a single device to monitor. It starts at $69.95 per year and includes 500 screenshots. Adding additional devices or increasing screenshot storage incurs extra charges.
- Business 50 Plan: This plan is designed for businesses managing up to 50 devices. For $995 per year, it offers 2,000 screenshots, and additional devices come with a per-device fee.
- Business 100 Plan: This plan is ideal for larger organizations with up to 100 devices under their purview. The cost is $1,595 per year with 2,000 screenshots, with additional devices incurring a slightly lower per-device fee compared to the Business 50 plan.

User Experience and Customer Reviews
User experiences with SentryPC paint a somewhat mixed picture. Positive reviews highlight the software's comprehensiveness, affordability, and ease of use. Users appreciate the detailed activity tracking and reporting capabilities, finding them valuable for enhancing employee productivity and ensuring responsible computer usage.
However, some users report encountering challenges with the user interface, particularly during initial setup. Additionally, customer service experiences seem to be a point of contention, with some users expressing dissatisfaction with response times and the level of support offered.
It's important to note that online reviews can be subjective and may not reflect the experience of every user. Conducting a free trial, if offered, can provide a firsthand experience with the software's functionalities and user interface before committing to a paid plan.
Alternatives to SentryPC
The employee monitoring software market is a competitive landscape. Here are a few alternatives to SentryPC, each with its own strengths and weaknesses:
- Teramind: A comprehensive solution offering employee activity tracking, website filtering, application blocking, and keystroke logging. It boasts advanced features like screen recording and user activity analysis but comes with a steeper price tag.
- Hubstaff: Focuses primarily on time tracking and project management. It offers features like screenshots, activity levels, and detailed reports for improved employee accountability and productivity monitoring. It might be a good fit for businesses prioritizing time management over comprehensive activity tracking.
- Time Doctor: Similar to Hubstaff, Time Doctor is another time tracking and productivity management software. It offers features like website and application monitoring, but its employee activity tracking capabilities are less extensive compared to SentryPC.
- ActiMonitor: A cost-effective option for basic employee monitoring needs. It lacks some of the advanced features of SentryPC but offers activity tracking, website blocking, and basic reporting functionalities.
The Final Verdict: Is SentryPC Right for You?
SentryPC is a compelling option for businesses and organizations seeking a budget-friendly solution for monitoring employee computer activity. Its comprehensive feature set provides valuable insights into employee behavior and promotes responsible computer usage. However, it's crucial to consider the potential drawbacks, particularly regarding employee privacy concerns and legal compliance.
Here are some factors to consider when deciding if SentryPC is the right fit for you:
- Company Size: For smaller businesses or those monitoring a handful of devices, SentryPC's pricing structure might be more attractive.
- Monitoring Needs: If your primary concern is time management and basic activity tracking, SentryPC offers a good balance of features and affordability. However, organizations requiring advanced functionalities like mobile device monitoring or in-depth user activity analysis might need to explore more comprehensive solutions.
- Technical Expertise: If your IT team possesses limited technical expertise, the initial setup and potential troubleshooting complexities of SentryPC should be factored into the decision.
- Employee Relations: Consider the potential impact on employee morale. Open communication regarding the purpose and limitations of employee monitoring is crucial to maintaining trust and a positive work environment.

2024.05.29 09:43 Zrteh Is there a way to make the auto-caption's bounding box restrict to only the graphic and not a specified area?
 | When subtitling, I have words pop in from left to right. The only way I know how to achieve this as efficiently as possible is to "Left Align Text" > "Align Center Horizontally" > "Source Text Keyframe". I want to take advantage of Premiere's Auto-Caption feature. However, after upgrading captions to graphics, the bounding box of the graphics are set to a specified area rather than automatically adjusting to the graphic. submitted by Zrteh to premiere [link] [comments] I understand that I can manually size the bounding box of the auto-caption to mimic the hand-typed version but that's tedious and inefficient, it would be quicker to use the hand-type version at that point. Does anyone have any ideas on how to make the auto-caption's bounding box replicate the behavior of the hand-typed bounding box efficiently? Fg. 1, hand-typed (bounding box changes with graphic.)

2024.05.29 09:41 Rehallow What exactly is pbp?
I came here looking for a certain type of role play, and frankly I’m not sure if this is it.
I feel like this sub would benefit from posting more general info either in the rules or a stickie that explains all these terms - or perhaps there is a place I could be redirected to where it does?
Anyway, long ago in a world that no longer exists, I used to play forum based text/post/thread RP’s. Was generally purely narrative driven and rarely had actual mechanics… but I guess I kinda miss those days and wish I had played more. It was fairly slow paced where people would post once d day but varied based on interest and how many people were online and would usually be a mix of completely original RP’s or RP’s that took place in fandoms and stuff
Is this similar to that? Would creating completely unique campaigns or campaigns based on Video games, movies, etc be possible or somewhat easily implemented?
I had some RP ideas shelved for years and I finally have been fleshing them out but I fear the format I’m long accustomed to doesn’t exist anymore - which would mean a lot of changes and learning to make it work 😭

2024.05.29 09:40 ThatOneEdgyBis I left my best friends dog outside on accident.
So as the title says, I accidentally left my best friends dog outside in the gated up yard with a camera on accident. I (22f) live with my best friend (22m), we’ll call him L as to protect his identity, at his parents place because I got kicked out of my mothers place for other reasons that I don’t wish to disclose and his mother graciously let me stay when she didn’t have to.
They have a smaller dog, it’s a cross breed that comes to the title of “bug” so like a pug and something else mix. This dog is around 7 years old but the only thing bothering him is some urinary incontinence and frequent bowel incontinence issues that end up on the carpet I bought to cover the cold hardwood floor on the side of my small futon his younger brother gave me. But even with that, he’s a very healthy and lively little guy that’s got a bit of a weight problem but is still SO cute nonetheless.
So on this night, I had picked up a 12 hour shift at the hospital I work at and was having trouble sleeping before having to be up 5 hours earlier than usual. I ended up falling asleep and then not hearing any of my alarms go off so I woke up at 6:45pm and I needed to be there for 7pm. It takes 20-30 minutes depending on traffic in order to get to my place of work. The dog is sitting at the door to the rest of the house (cause he gets put on me and L’s side as he can be a bit of a pain when nobody is around and messes with the bathroom trash constantly and pees out there frequently) and is waiting to be let out to go run to the front door to be let out.
I rush to get myself ready in 5 minutes and do a really quick survey of the situation. I hear TVs on upstairs and what sounds like the youngest FaceTiming one of his friends on his iPad. So I figure that dad is home playing video games or taking a nap and I look outside to see his car is still here but mom is not. I figured that she went to go get something as it’s still kinda early so whatever I get it.
Here’s where I f*cked up… I let the dog out into the gated yard that has a ring doorbell and fencing all around and into the backyard with really tall fencing. Like 5+ foot tall fencing cause it’s taller than me and I’m 5 foot 2. I then shoot a message to dad and say “I let the dog out. I have to fly to work. I was supposed to be there a minute ago but my iPhone doesn’t like to let me hear alarms” and get in my car and proceed to do possibly 20+ over the limit, trying to get to work as quickly as possible. I get the message “Okie dokie.” 35 minutes later and take that as confirmation that they know and will let the dog in.
As I get into work, it’s an absolute sh*t show from the time I got there to the time I left at 7am. About 4 hours into said shift, I get a message from L and we had a back and forth for about an hour while I was busy as hell with patients and already beyond frustrated.
L: You left (the dog’s name) outside??? L: He’s been out there for 3 hours and my mother refuses to rush home bc she’s at an arcade and it’s “already paid for”
Me: I told (dads name)
L: (Dad) is home?
Me: sends a screenshot of the text message I sent with his reply Me: His car was home and the kids were home
L: sends a screenshot of the back and forth messages between his mother and him L: Nobody is or has been home
Me: Jesus fcking Christ. I had to rush to work and I’m not dealing with him shtting and p*ssing on my carpet again. I told them and everyone was still there. Me: Except mom Me: Now I’m getting the shit end of the stick Me: Great. Just great.
L: Everyone left at 4, nobody was home since. I seen the cameras. I’m worried about my dog rn, not your negligence.
Me: How the fck am I supposed to know everyone left? Me: I was asleep and I heard everything blaring upstairs before I ran outside Me: I’m working a fcking 12 hour shift
L: Idk, maybe make sure before you leave or let him back in??
Me: I WAS ALREADY LATE FOR F*CKING WORK
L: I’m sorry, but I can’t accept that. I’m already heading home to let him in. Again, I’m worried about my dog rn.
At this point, I’m frustrated with not only my job but now problems at home. About 33 minutes later, I get another messaged from L.
L: I don’t want to go to sleep tonight upset with you and I don’t want to have ruined your night, you’re my best friend, I love you, I’m sorry for being anal about it but please understand where I’m coming from. I love that dog, and don’t want anything happening to him. Can I just ask that if you do ever let him out, to let him back in before you leave unless you 100% know someone is home? L: I understand tonight was an accident, you were running late for a 12 hour shift and didn’t know nobody was home. Just ask that for the future.
I see the message and I damn near just break down in the middle of the hallway in front of all the nurses and other PCA’s. I’m already overwhelmed and frustrated with a million other emotions inside my head at the moment. I decide that I don’t wanna tell him how I feel and just bottle it up instead. I message just one message back.
Me: We’ll talk tomorrow. I don’t wish to speak to you for the rest of my shift, please.
L responds: Then we won’t.
A day goes by and I have refused to go upstairs and speak to him and I have refused to speak to his parents as well since I am still very upset and stressed from the situation. I had also messaged his mother as well. Just asking why I got a confirmation to my message but nobody was home. I then decided to send L a message asking if he was home. He says he went to work early. This is the back and forth messages.
L: Why what’s up
Me: I just wanted to talk to you is all..
L: I was home all day yesterday
Me: I’ll just talk to you tomorrow then..
L: I work tomorrow
Me: I can talk to you before work, right?
L: I don’t plan on being up until I gotta go. Today has been awful
Me: Oh… Okay…
L: I also don’t really want to talk about it anymore anyway. It bothered me that you didn’t apologize or want to take responsibility for it, didn’t want to talk about it until the next day, then didn’t. So I just wanna forget about it. I said what I had to say, and if you have anything you want to say, you know where I live.
Me: I do wanna talk about it and I do wanna apologize and tell you how I feel about it but I can’t convey it well enough through a text message…
L: No I understand that and we will still talk if you want to tell me something, but I’m just letting you know, I have nothing more to say about it.
Me: Okay…
A few hours go by.
L: I don’t mean to sound like an asshole when I say that, I’ll absolutely listen to what you have to say, just letting you know, I’ve already said what I have to.
I have yet to respond to him and frankly, I don’t want to. I wanna go home and curl up in a ball and just… stop existing. I already have depression and anxiety along with PTSD from living with my mother. I feel as though I’m nothing but a piece of sh*t even if the situation is not that serious. I didn’t leave the dog in a hot car or anything that serious but I left him outside for a couple hours on accident. I’ve been best friends with L for well over a decade and I don’t wanna ruin my only friendship with the person I deeply love and care about. If I lose him, I have legitimately no other friends and I lose the only person that really has ever cared about how I feel and think and didn’t wanna be my friend for some sort of beneficial gain. I’ve already been told by coworkers and my boyfriend who lives out in Georgia about this and everyone says I’m NTA. Now I’m turning to people who have no idea who I am to see what they think on this situation as I need outside advice.

2024.05.29 09:40 SnooCrickets3850 The one that got away
So I don’t know how to start this but I meet this girl on a dating app and we were talking, everything was amazing even the first time we met up. She spent the night over because she was too drunk to drive home so was I, I was very hesitant because this person at that time was a stranger but we just vibe so well. After that day we just keep hanging out and exploring places in SD. I got to really get to know this person so well and deeply that we had so much in common, Music, ideas, etc.
I started to like this girl so much but the only thing I didn’t like was she was talking to her ex still but for a reason. She had to pay him back for rent which I thought It was totally fine but it started to get to a point where she was like “ugh he is just pissing me off and I can’t take this with him.” Also she would bring up certain things with him to me which I thought was weird to me because even though I knew they lived with each other about two years ago and broke up a year ago.
I never seen somebody talk about their ex so much even though it was all bad things about him but even still have contact with him. I would kinda tease her about it sometimes like “oh sounds like you guys are still together.” She denies it and says fucker I like you not him anymore but it got to a point I would say stuff like that out of concern which one day, we had a conversation about it and she said I would bring him up all the time.
I never dealt with that before, so even though I know this is wrong I went on a the same dating app I found her on and was looking and I saw her sister friend at the time. I didn’t know the friend at the time so I swipe on her and we didn’t match but I get a call from the girl I was talking to and she was telling me how could I do this and everything else, which she is right I should of never done that. I just felt like she was so drawn on her ex and having conversations with him that I was going try and see what else was out there but after that we came to a agreement on just keep talking to each other.
Months go by and we fall for each other, we aren’t in a relationship yet because I just feel so doubtful that it could work because in my mind she is still talking to her ex. She wants to be my girlfriend but I just kept telling her let’s wait because of the ex stuff, I didn’t tell her that but she got it. We have each others location and spring break comes, I don’t know what happened but my location stops working for her.
I leave to go back home. She gets worried about not seeing it and wants to fix it and I tried to fix it but it wouldn’t work for me even showing her that it didn’t but then I told her I’m going to be spending time with my family because I never get to see them because I play college football. she got that but it’s also my fault because I spent so much time with them and didn’t text her as much when I was back at home.
My birthday is in spring break so I got gifts from my family but I got crocs that had I heart N which was from my mom which represented my uncle who passed, His name started with a N. she’s worried that I might have a another girl back home. I tried telling her I don’t but I wanted her to come over since I was gone for a week and she had gifts for my birthday that past so everything was good.
She is over my place and is fine with staying until I got back from practice so I left then I get text messages from my family friend telling me she is texting her on instagram and somehow gets her phone number. I couldn’t go back home to ask why she is doing that since I was already at practice but after practice I call her and she is literally back at her house and telling me that I lied to her and that she is done with me.
She literally took an edible and drove home which I think is crazy but she is so high and I tell her, What is going on and she says I have proof of you lying to me and I told her send it to me. She takes forever to send it but she sends it to me and it’s my crocs with the N. She tries to say my family friend is the girl so we go back and forth but then she realize that it wasn’t and says sorry for leaving and she also got in an argument with her mom.
I tell her that we need to just slow down we are just dating and you are doing crazy things. She agrees and we kinda slow down, after this she is still stalking my family friend. she doesn’t know that my family friend has a boyfriend and keeps looking at her stories and thinks it’s me so she jumps to conclusions and breaks up with me. I keep tryna tell her it’s not me and she keeps saying it is but we come to a agreement again and she asks me why do I still wanna date her when she’s done that, I tell her I just like her so much and wanna see how far it can go.
This is true and still is because this is still fresh. weeks later she is having conversations with her ex but she already told him that she wants me and not him anymore. he didn’t wanna let go and she was just paying him back the money she owed him but he started to make conversation with her and they were just talking like friends. Couple weeks ago he confessed to her about wanting her back and wants her to drop me and come back to him but they have a long bad history and she told him “I’m not doing that to him, I want him in my life not you just move on.”
He literally pass out or something while driving because he wasn’t getting sleep or something and she calls me and tells me everything that went on and all that shit made me so mad. she still was talking to him because I knew he would do something like that but he gives her a ultimatum of it’s either me or him. She told me that and tells him the next day I’m sticking with him. She couldn’t and wouldn’t go back to that place he put her in so after that I’m pissed off about that whole shit and keeping contact with him.
A week ago, my family friends car stops working so she asks me to take her to target to get stuff and I did because why wouldn’t I help. I do that and we are just laughing and talking then I take a picture of her with my crocs half way in it and she posted it but next thing that happens is I get a text from the girl. She says fuck you, bye then blocks me and it hurt so fucking much like I still think about it and tried to tell her, I wasn’t doing anything with my family friend but I was blocked.
I start to post on my story and she just watches them and not saying anything. I don’t say anything as well but then she posts something about karma is coming for the people that lied to her and did her wrong which hurt because I truly wasn’t doing nothing. I didn’t wanna text her because I was still shocked that she would do that then days go by and she stops watching it.
I saw she keep going public and private on instagram so when she opened it again I like some new pictures of her then she texts and delete. I asked her what did she say and she said why am I liking her shit and I need to stop because my little girlfriend isn’t going like that like just being so petty. She tells me that she is going block me on Instagram too so I started feeling sad and told her don’t let me just talk to her.
I wasn’t even home, I was literally in a different state for a family trip which was two days ago but I tell her everything that I love her and wanna fix it. I don’t wanna lose her but she tells me she isn’t changing her mind and I’m begging her because I truly love this girl but we come to somewhat an agreement of seeing each other Tuesday. I got back in the state so I text her and tell her my flight is going be late maybe let me stay over at her place because I know her mom a little and her mom likes me.
I told her maybe I could do that and we can just talk but then she tells me that’s not a good idea and she isn’t doing that so I keep trying and trying but she says we can talk on the phone when I land so I said fine I’m cool with that. I landed and I was about to text her that I landed, can we talk now but before I went on instagram to see if she unfollowed people because I just couldn’t stop thinking about her being with someone else. I see she blocked me on instagram so I go to text her phone number and I was blocked too.
I had a whole letter for her and she hasn’t even seen it because I sent it after the messages went green but it just hurts so much because I want this girl like she just matches me. This just happened two days ago,I am really hurting bad. I don’t know what to do I feel so alone but I just want her bad like what can I do and I know the story is everywhere but it’s so hard to type this out. I don’t know if anyone wants to hear all of it, maybe I can make a discord or something but I don’t know what to do and I don’t want nobody else but her.

She had to pay him back for rent which I thought It was totally fine but it started to get to a point where she was like “ugh he is just pissing me off and I can’t take this with him.” Also she would bring up certain things with him to me which I thought was weird to me because even though I knew they lived with each other about two years ago and broke up a year ago.
I never seen somebody talk about their ex so much even though it was all bad things about him but even still have contact with him. I would kinda tease her about it sometimes like “oh sounds like you guys are still together.” She denies it and says fucker I like you not him anymore but it got to a point I would say stuff like that out of concern which one day, we had a conversation about it and she said I would bring him up all the time.
I never dealt with that before, so even though I know this is wrong I went on a the same dating app I found her on and was looking and I saw her sister friend at the time. I didn’t know the friend at the time so I swipe on her and we didn’t match but I get a call from the girl I was talking to and she was telling me how could I do this and everything else, which she is right I should of never done that. I just felt like she was so drawn on her ex and having conversations with him that I was going try and see what else was out there but after that we came to a agreement on just keep talking to each other.
Months go by and we fall for each other, we aren’t in a relationship yet because I just feel so doubtful that it could work because in my mind she is still talking to her ex. She wants to be my girlfriend but I just kept telling her let’s wait because of the ex stuff, I didn’t tell her that but she got it. We have each others location and spring break comes, I don’t know what happened but my location stops working for her.
I leave to go back home. She gets worried about not seeing it and wants to fix it and I tried to fix it but it wouldn’t work for me even showing her that it didn’t but then I told her I’m going to be spending time with my family because I never get to see them because I play college football. she got that but it’s also my fault because I spent so much time with them and didn’t text her as much when I was back at home.
My birthday is in spring break so I got gifts from my family but I got crocs that had I heart N which was from my mom which represented my uncle who passed, His name started with a N. she’s worried that I might have a another girl back home. I tried telling her I don’t but I wanted her to come over since I was gone for a week and she had gifts for my birthday that past so everything was good.
She is over my place and is fine with staying until I got back from practice so I left then I get text messages from my family friend telling me she is texting her on instagram and somehow gets her phone number. I couldn’t go back home to ask why she is doing that since I was already at practice but after practice I call her and she is literally back at her house and telling me that I lied to her and that she is done with me.
She literally took an edible and drove home which I think is crazy but she is so high and I tell her, What is going on and she says I have proof of you lying to me and I told her send it to me. She takes forever to send it but she sends it to me and it’s my crocs with the N. She tries to say my family friend is the girl so we go back and forth but then she realize that it wasn’t and says sorry for leaving and she also got in an argument with her mom.
I tell her that we need to just slow down we are just dating and you are doing crazy things. She agrees and we kinda slow down, after this she is still stalking my family friend. she doesn’t know that my family friend has a boyfriend and keeps looking at her stories and thinks it’s me so she jumps to conclusions and breaks up with me. I keep tryna tell her it’s not me and she keeps saying it is but we come to a agreement again and she asks me why do I still wanna date her when she’s done that, I tell her I just like her so much and wanna see how far it can go.
This is true and still is because this is still fresh. weeks later she is having conversations with her ex but she already told him that she wants me and not him anymore. he didn’t wanna let go and she was just paying him back the money she owed him but he started to make conversation with her and they were just talking like friends. Couple weeks ago he confessed to her about wanting her back and wants her to drop me and come back to him but they have a long bad history and she told him “I’m not doing that to him, I want him in my life not you just move on.”
He literally pass out or something while driving because he wasn’t getting sleep or something and she calls me and tells me everything that went on and all that shit made me so mad. she still was talking to him because I knew he would do something like that but he gives her a ultimatum of it’s either me or him. She told me that and tells him the next day I’m sticking with him. She couldn’t and wouldn’t go back to that place he put her in so after that I’m pissed off about that whole shit and keeping contact with him.
A week ago, my family friends car stops working so she asks me to take her to target to get stuff and I did because why wouldn’t I help. I do that and we are just laughing and talking then I take a picture of her with my crocs half way in it and she posted it but next thing that happens is I get a text from the girl. She says fuck you, bye then blocks me and it hurt so fucking much like I still think about it and tried to tell her, I wasn’t doing anything with my family friend but I was blocked.
I start to post on my story and she just watches them and not saying anything. I don’t say anything as well but then she posts something about karma is coming for the people that lied to her and did her wrong which hurt because I truly wasn’t doing nothing. I didn’t wanna text her because I was still shocked that she would do that then days go by and she stops watching it.
I saw she keep going public and private on instagram so when she opened it again I like some new pictures of her then she texts and delete. I asked her what did she say and she said why am I liking her shit and I need to stop because my little girlfriend isn’t going like that like just being so petty. She tells me that she is going block me on Instagram too so I started feeling sad and told her don’t let me just talk to her.
I wasn’t even home, I was literally in a different state for a family trip which was two days ago but I tell her everything that I love her and wanna fix it. I don’t wanna lose her but she tells me she isn’t changing her mind and I’m begging her because I truly love this girl but we come to somewhat an agreement of seeing each other Tuesday. I got back in the state so I text her and tell her my flight is going be late maybe let me stay over at her place because I know her mom a little and her mom likes me.
I told her maybe I could do that and we can just talk but then she tells me that’s not a good idea and she isn’t doing that so I keep trying and trying but she says we can talk on the phone when I land so I said fine I’m cool with that. I landed and I was about to text her that I landed, can we talk now but before I went on instagram to see if she unfollowed people because I just couldn’t stop thinking about her being with someone else. I see she blocked me on instagram so I go to text her phone number and I was blocked too.
I had a whole letter for her and she hasn’t even seen it because I sent it after the messages went green but it just hurts so much because I want this girl like she just matches me. This just happened two days ago,I am really hurting bad. I don’t know what to do I feel so alone but I just want her bad like what can I do and I know the story is everywhere but it’s so hard to type this out. I don’t know if anyone wants to hear all of it, maybe I can make a discord or something but I don’t know what to do and I don’t want nobody else but her.
2024.05.29 09:40 Toradorawithpuppers Communication Trigger Help.
I am having an issue making a message trigger. I am trying to make it trigger on receiving an image instead of text or on receiving a message from anybody. Is there any way to do one of the two?

2024.05.29 09:39 SnooCrickets3850 The one that got away
So I don’t know how to start this but I meet this girl on a dating app and we were talking, everything was amazing even the first time we met up. She spent the night over because she was too drunk to drive home so was I, I was very hesitant because this person at that time was a stranger but we just vibe so well. After that day we just keep hanging out and exploring places in SD. I got to really get to know this person so well and deeply that we had so much in common, Music, ideas, etc.
I started to like this girl so much but the only thing I didn’t like was she was talking to her ex still but for a reason. She had to pay him back for rent which I thought It was totally fine but it started to get to a point where she was like “ugh he is just pissing me off and I can’t take this with him.” Also she would bring up certain things with him to me which I thought was weird to me because even though I knew they lived with each other about two years ago and broke up a year ago.

2024.05.29 09:39 red_and_lavender How to move on after being ghosted?
There’s a lot to this story that I don’t want to share publicly, even on a throwaway account.
A little over a year ago, I met someone online. It took a while for me to discover my own feelings for her or rather, to allow myself to feel them because I was a afraid that if I let myself get too attached to this person we both might end up hurt if things ended badly. Another reason was that we were both in relationships at the time. As we talked and discovered more and more about each other we found that we had a lot of things in common; so much so that we often said that we must have been together in a previous life. We officially started dating online last November. We texted every single day and called as often as was possible. She made me feel loved and seen in a way I’ve never, ever felt before. I truly felt understood and found with her. I knew there was nothing that we couldn’t talk to about each other, even things I’d have been embarrassed or ashamed to talk about with anyone else close to me. We’re both trans as well, and this was the very first time that I’ve ever felt like a lesbian woman in a relationship. I couldn’t even describe what that means if I wanted to, but all those beautiful historical artworks about women in love and all the songs just suddenly had so much more meaning. We talked about me coming to visit her in the UK this fall. The last time we talked was about two months ago. She was going through an extremely difficult breakup in that time. In her last text message she said that she had to rebuild her life completely and that the breakup had been a completely soul shattering process. She told me how much I do for her and that she struggled to accept that she was worthy of me at the moment. She told me that she thinks of me every day and that she doesn’t feel worthy to have me in her life, and that it’s because of her own demons, nothing I had done.
Typing this all out and thinking about it, I suppose that she really did break up with me in that sense. My response to her last message went unanswered, as did all my other messages and calls over the last two months. She told me how much she loved me and with everything we said to each other during our time together, I held out hope that she would talk to me again. I still do. I want to give her all the time and space in the world, and she told me that she struggles to reach out to others for help in difficult times, and right now she’s going through the most difficult time in her life. I worry so much about her. The only reason I even know she’s still alive (which I also worried about) is that her LinkedIn is still active and updated every now and then.
Both of our birthdays are in the first week of June. I’m holding out this stupid hope that maybe by that time she’ll reach out to me again. I’ve not been able to stop thinking about her for a single day. I see her everywhere and in everything. This pain is unlike anything I’ve ever felt before and I just want it to end. What if I choose to let her go and stop checking my messages every day and she gets backs to me then? When we were still talking, even the thought of her made me happy and smile. Now thinking of her just makes me sad. What do I do?

2024.05.29 09:39 Kokomaru Please sell me on modern Yugioh
I will be the first to admit that I'm a boomer to modern yugioh. I played the game a lot when I was younger, back when Blue Eyes White Dragon was the most powerful card in the game and some of the biggest plays you could do was putting two face downs and ending your turn. Games were slower, methodical, and tactical.
Nowadays, I watch modern Yugioh and I swear to god it feels like solitaire and I know some of you have heard this type of argument before. But if I have to go to the bathroom during the game, come back, and the opponent is still not done with their turn, I think that says more about the game. It's just summon, summon, summon, summon. I feel like fast-forwarding the game. And when the opponent is done, it becomes impossible to play because the opponent has amassed too many defenses for you to do anything.
And have you guys SEEN how long the text on these cards are getting? I feel like I'm reading the actual bible on a card. Or an encyclopedia. Because there's so much text man. Reading an actual dictionary on a card.
My last foray into this franchise was Yugioh duel links and it was so close... SO... CLOSE... to getting it right and going back to it's roots and being actually balanced. But even that was eventually tarnished.
Modern Yugioh to me just feels like it has the most oppressive decks imaginable that there's hardly any kind of strategy involved beyond making the exact same deck as your opponent. There's no interaction, no fun, and I can't help but wonder WHY anyone would want to get into this and spend tons of money just to get handtrapped every game. This looks dumb and stupid. This game looks insanely busted from the outside.
I love Halloween and one of my favorite types of decks from Yugioh that I've seen is Ghostrick. I love the design of the cards, I love the artstyle, it looks fantastic. The problem? This is an archetype of a begone age. It's not competitive and it's basically just there to look pretty. You cannot play Ghostrick in modern Yugioh it just sucks and it's bad and that's really sad for someone like me as it's without a doubt my ideal archetype. And before that I played Darkworld decks, and before that I played a water deck and they just all suck now and aren't remotely competitive.
I feel like with Yugioh, the ideal would be both players trying to bring out their boss monster and then protecting and enhancing that big card in order to beat the other player. That seems far more fun than simply negating any and all play from your opponent.
Please, help me understand, sell me on this franchise. Sell me on modern yugioh. Why do you guys continue to play this game? Where is the fun and joy in a duel? Why do you continue to care? I feel like I'm missing something crucial. Throw me a bone here.

Nowadays, I watch modern Yugioh and I swear to god it feels like solitaire and I know some of you have heard this type of argument before. But if I have to go to the bathroom during the game, come back, and the opponent is still not done with their turn, I think that says more about the game. It's just summon, summon, summon, summon.

2024.05.29 09:39 ItsAllAboutEvolution Getting Started with Chinese
I would like to share my experiences with getting started in the language and would be delighted if anyone among you who has had similar experiences could give me tips on how to proceed in a reasonable way.
First, I searched online for language courses, looked at the textbooks used, and consistently saw that they start directly with conversation. PinYin is mostly included in the introductory lesson, but it is only touched on the surface—instead, it starts directly with 你好. The textbooks are only in Chinese. This initially seemed intimidating to me because I had been in such courses before and lost interest after a short time. Additionally, in such courses, it is often the case that many people do not do their homework, and the progress in the course is frustratingly slow.
Next, I looked at self-study courses in the bookstore. Everything was fine, very comprehensive, but the audio material mostly only covered the conversations. That didn't really look promising.
Apps and websites were next. There are:
Now, I have started with HelloChinese, and for the first time, I feel that there is a coherent concept behind it. It can be mastered from the start, is well-presented, and motivating. In parallel, I will use Skritter and occasionally engage with Du Chinese to develop an ear for the Chinese language (from various speakers).

Next, I looked at self-study courses in the bookstore. Everything was fine, very comprehensive, but the audio material mostly only covered the conversations. That didn't really look promising.
Apps and websites were next. There are:
- YoYo Chinese: I find it great for starting because the teacher is very nice, and everything was initially understandable for me. After a while, it became bothersome that the videos are so short and contain a lot of prose repeatedly. The learning flow is not optimal for me.
- Zero to Hero: I like it a lot, but it works very closely with the HSK course books. I have to plan long sessions and constantly switch between media. I have big problems with this for the beginning. It was very difficult for me to remember the characters and their pronunciation. Learning Chinese feels like learning two languages at the same time. So I thought I would start by memorizing the characters.
- Hack Chinese: Here, I could activate the HSK characters directly as a list and learn pronunciation/characters together. The learning algorithm is great, but the pronunciation quality is not optimal. Especially for the beginning, it is difficult because it is spoken quickly, and I can only hear the tones very limitedly. The same goes for the example sentences. I'll keep this app in mind for later.
- Skritter: The pronunciation quality is much better here. You also learn to write in parallel. I really like it, and I will use it directly for the start. Of course, it takes even more time to learn to write, but I can set the pace myself. Very soon, I noticed that the pronunciation of characters alone is only somewhat helpful, and there are many pronunciation variants that sound extremely different to my German-trained ears. For instance, a, r, i, e, x, etc., seem to have many variations. I understand that some of these have different pronunciations depending on the context, but in reality, the same words can sound entirely different depending on the speaker.
- Du Chinese: The app is great. The audio quality is high, and you can significantly slow down the speaking speed to hear the tones. This helps enormously. Compared to Chinese texts on Audible, this is much better. However, what I miss are the basics. You start directly with, for example, "I'm a cat" or "Twelve Minutes," which easily includes 80 words and even more characters. Learning these takes time, and when I focus on pronunciation or listening, I hardly learn the characters.
- Teacher: To progress further and get some feedback, I booked an online private lesson with a teacher. It was an interesting experience, but it left me with the impression that I first need to master the basics before I can engage with Chinese-speaking people. The input regarding pronunciation and approach to the language was not helpful, and not different from what the apps offer.
Now, I have started with HelloChinese, and for the first time, I feel that there is a coherent concept behind it. It can be mastered from the start, is well-presented, and motivating. In parallel, I will use Skritter and occasionally engage with Du Chinese to develop an ear for the Chinese language (from various speakers).
2024.05.29 09:38 guestrunaway More than friends ?
There's a guy (27m) I've (29m)known online for over a year via discord.
We've never met but have seen pictures of each other. I know he is who he is cos I've met one of his friend IRL (they went to school together). Let's call him Bob
We started getting close around August last year playing games and chatting together. We spend pretty much most days sending messages and jumping onto vc together. Till Feb 2024 I realised I'm starting to have a crush on him and I felt like the way he was talking to me meant he felt the same. When my friend spoke to Bob he said he only sees me as a friend. I got upset and Bob then called me to talk things out - his reason of not feeling the same way was he knows the type of guys I've dated before and feels that he doesn't fit the type plus it'll be long distance which wouldn't work. Bob lives in France and I live in the UK. I did say I didn't agree with him but we don't want to lose each other as friends so we just left things as it is. Since then we've grown even closer - he starts private calling me. if I'm sad he would make sure to check up and see if he can help or just talk to him. I'm the first one he messages when he wakes up and makes conversations throughout the day. I cant think of a day where he doesn't message me or check up on me. We vc almost everyday whether that be private or in a group call.
Bob have never really had a real gf before and is a nerdish person. He has mentioned my personality is the type of girl he would date (he's mentioned couple times that I'm pretty etc). There was one time a few months ago he got drunk and said something that upset me, since then if he gets drunk he would make sure he wouldn't get too drunk and say something he doesn't mean. All our other friends can sense there's something there but he is adamant he only likes me as a friend.
I'm confused honestly and I am worried that this crush won't go away and it can affect our friendship.
Am I thinking too much or he does actually like me but afraid to admit that?

2024.05.29 09:38 Trinityyy_26 AITA FOR CUTTING MY DAD OFF FOR CALLING ME “useless” and will never be “loved”
So I(26f) am really close to my dad (56m) and we do everything together like everything together we’re inseparable until one day that all changed when me and him got into this HUGE fight about all the stuff going on in my life and how I should fix it so let’s just say the argument ended on bad terms and we haven’t talk in two months.
So my dad’s birthday was three days ago and I really wanted to make for the time we’ve lost together over that argument so I just got him this really nice car and everything just to apologize with it and talk about what happened.
So I came over his house ready to see him surprised at me finally being back home and after the argument so I knocked on the door and my dad opens the and saw me but he just said “oh hey wasn’t expecting you to be here” and I honestly was confused you haven’t seen your daughter in two months and that’s all you say.?
But at the same time I thought “maybe he’s just tired or something”so I just brushed it off,so as I he let me into the house I saw my aunt,my cousins, and my brother so I said hello to everyone and tried to talk to my dad but as soon as tried to he said needed to go the kitchen so I was just “ok I’ll just talk to him later".
So I’m taking to my brother my dad comes in and as I try to give him a hug he dodges me and goes to talk to my aunt,so at this time I’m just like "ok….this is weird" but again I just ignored it and went on with the party.
So as I was getting to cake from the fridge to light it up and everything I overheard my dad saying "why is she here,I don’t want her here she’s so useless and could be loved by anyone" so I just stood there in the kitchen shocked at what my own father said about me.
So atp, I’m like bro we had a fight and I understand I showed up uninvited but I wanted to apologize and acc wanted to make up for it,but to say that about your own daughter, horrible.
So I came out of the kitchen with the cake and dropped it right in front of him and left,because who is going to stay there after hearing that nope not me,so after I left my brother texted me asking me why did I cause a scene out of nowhere and leave without saying anything so, he already knows about the fight I told him what our dad was doing to whole time at the party and how I heard him taking about me.
He says he understands me but I never should’ve caused a scene like that and to apologize to our dad so I said"no and that I was going to cut him off "my brothers I was overreacting and I’m the ah in this situation.
But I personally think I’m not the problem and my family’s just toxic but idk I need help to settle this.
AITAH?!

2024.05.29 09:36 sobeninja14 On The Usages of もったいない
I was perusing through the daily question thread as I do, and I came across a sentence that was more than meets the eye on first glance. One of the posters needed some help explaining why まだ使えるものがゴミとして捨てらている is correct while まだ使えるものがゴミとしてもったいないと思う is incorrect.
I looked at this question and I pondered it for a long time. Explaining why the former is the correct answer is simple. "Items that are still usable are being thrown out as garbage." It is just incredibly unproblematic and simple when being put next to latter, which is seemingly just full of baggage. But the question asking *why* the latter is wrong, is a much more difficult and complex question to answer, hence this post. I want to *attempt* to explain why this sentence is incorrect, and perhaps anyone with deeper knowledge on the grammatical subjects can provide extra clarity, because I ran into incredibly complex issues trying to solve this problem. Here it goes.
Fundamentally, I believe there is a common misunderstanding of what the phrase "もったいない" actually means. It does not mean "X is a waste," like some people say, rather it means, "X is put to waste." My evidence for this is as follows (all of the sources I will be pulling from are not my own creation, but sentences I pull out of native material): From the Weblio definition of もったいない:
"有用なのにそのままにしておいたり、**むだにしてしまったりする** のが惜しい."
"Even though it is useful, leaving it alone as it is or putting it to waste is regrettable" (roughly).
With the definition of もったいない established, breaking something down into its most basic parts is often a good way to build understanding. So, what does "水がもったいない" mean? It doesn't mean "Water is a waste," rather it means "Water is being put to waste." Put into terms of daily conversation, "You're wasting water!" Same thing with "時間がもったいない" meaning time is being put to waste.
Armed with this knowledge, I aim to tackle the original sentence:
"まだ使えるものがゴミとしてもったいないと思う" In order to understand what is grammatically incorrect about this sentence, we need to do the same as we did earlier and break it down into its fundamental basic parts, and that is: (まだ) 使えるものがもったいない. *Things that are still usable are being put to waste.* This is a grammatically correct sentence, and if you think otherwise, please explain with evidence and reasoning.
So why Is the original sentence grammatically incorrect? Is it because of the addition of ゴミとして, the addition of と思う, or both? Well, when you use もったいない and と思う together, you have to use を instead of が. A sentence I found was 私はそれをもったいないと思う, which means using を here instead of が would be more accurate. So for the sentence to be correct, it would have to be まだ使えるものをゴミとしてもったいないと思う, right?
However, while researching the usages of もったいない I came across the sentence: 彼は私にもったいない which means he is put to waste with me, or more commonly and accurately translated as "He is too good for me." This seems difficult to come to terms with, but the following sentence puts this usage into a much clearer picture: "この服は普段着にはもったいない" These clothes are put to waste as every day clothing i.e. these clothes are too good to wear as everyday clothing.
So does that make まだ使えるものをゴミにもったいないと思う *technically* grammatically correct? It just doesn't feel right. Is there ever a case where として can be used with もったいない in this fashion and still be correct? I'm not quite sure. Perhaps you could say something like 彼の才能は庭師としてもったいない as "His talents are wasted as a gardener." But as established previously, wouldn't 彼の才能は庭師にもったいない (His talents are put to waste as a gardener) make more sense? Or can both work? And can you substantiate it if you it can or can't? I couldn't find any usage of として with もったいない online, regrettably.
What I am certain of is that もったいない is a fucky as hell phrase, and that optimally speaking the best way to turn this sentence into one that is unambiguously correct would be to say まだ使えるものをゴミにするのはもったいないと思う or まだ使えるものをゴミにしてはもったいないと思う. But I guess what I was pondering over and more interested in was what would make the original sentence *technically* correct as it was. Let me know your thoughts. I spent way too much time on this. But it was fun.

2024.05.29 09:35 Lolvidar D386 Hardware & OS Essentials study materials
So I'm studying some of the articles that serve as required reading for this course, and the really REALLY bad grammar is distracting. Stuff like:
"Implementing machine hardening includes following a hard and fast of pleasant practices to bolster the security posture of computer systems and decrease the danger of unauthorized get right of entry to, data breaches, and cyber attacks."
I'm trying to tell myself it doesn't matter, just focus on the information being imparted. And then I come across this bit, in a part of a Geeks For Geeks article that's supposed to be talking about network hardening:
"What is double age hardening?
A process when an item is put through two full hardening processes, or first annealing and then hardening is called double age hardeing."
This is a reference to a metallurgical process, and has nothing to do with network hardening. Now it's clear to me that this is an article someone simply churned out using an LLM, and didn't bother editing. But what really chaps my ass is that this garbage was picked out by someone at WGU who put together this course that I'm paying for, and that they couldn't be bothered to check its quality.
This is on top of the frustration of text material on networking that completely contradicts material from the C172 Network and Security Foundations course.
Am I making too much of this? Has anyone else who's taken this course noticed? Or am I the a-hole here?

2024.05.29 09:35 Beneficial-Access-24 Question for the finsubs - emotional attachment (dommes if you have experienced this, pls pitch in)
This is gonna be a LONG one. Sorry sweethearts ❤️
Obviously posting from my fake account so the person I’m referring to doesn’t see. Also, I wouldn’t post this here normally but I’ve gotten no help from other findoms other than to just ignore my feelings.
I’m kind of embarrassed to admit that I’ve become attached to my finsub. For reference, I’ve been doing this for about 2 yrs, and I currently have a 1.5yr long finsub (let’s call him Bob), a 4 month long finsub (Rob), and new couple of weeks old finsub (Zob?idfk). I’ve had others in between but I prefer long term relationships to truly get to know the sub otherwise I kinda feel like I’m a street hooker (nothing wrong with that!). And I actually love to get to know people and let them know about me. If you grew up on Omegle, you def know what I mean.
With Bob, we started off talking every single night and having sessions. It then dwindled down and he only reaches out for sessions every other week due to his family commitments. We still talk like how I would my normal everyday friends and check up on each other. For payment, he sends every Monday a weekly stipend (I approached him about stopping but he wanted to keep it as a reminder that this is transactional to some extent) and he pays me for the sessions separately. I truly see him as a close friend and I’m absolutely blessed to be able to have met him. I’ve even (with his permission) sent his kids gifts for bdays. I’m close to him but I wouldn’t be absolutely heartbroken if we ended this and just stuck to being friends.
With Rob, he’s a busy man and this relationship is only for pleasure. He contacts me on Sundays for sessions and pays for those only. Occasionally, he’ll pay for pictures when he’s having a bad day and just needs a quick release on his own. He’s like that coworker you see at work events and spend 3 hrs talking to but then don’t talk to outside of that.
Now Zob, yes I feel ridiculous writing that. Zob is something else. You could say that we started off the same way Rob and I started off, but somethings different about him. So far, our schedule has been a daily session after work that he pays for and then, after he finishes cleaning himself, we talk for hours. I can’t tell you why we even talk about but all I can describe it as is us trying to catch each other up on everything that has ever happened to us. Even the mundane details.
Here’s the issue, I think I might be emotionally attached to him. He’s been really busy for the past couple of days and all of a sudden I feel like I’m going through a breakup. I’ve literally cried so much I had to cancel my session with another finsub. We send each other “hru” texts but that’s it. I’m not sure if I should address this with him and end this while it’s still fresh.
Realistically, it COULD work out if we wanted to end this and begin a “normal” relationship but would that be smart? How do I even approach that with him? Do I even approach it? Other findom friends have told me to keep it as it is because, admittedly, I need the money, but I feel bad taking his money. I also just kinda feel cheap taking it. I don’t want him to pay to talk to me but I also don’t want him to think I’m going to abuse the power he gives me. To add to it, hypothetically, if I did ask to move forward with a normal relationship, I don’t want him to feel bad that I’m being paid by other subs to make up for it.
As a sub, what would you want to hear from your domme? Would you want them to even say anything?
PS: Our dynamic outside of sessions is basically just him teasing about marrying me and me telling him off. It’s banter. It’s flirting. That’s all. But it’s getting to me. If you recommend that I don’t say anything to him, should I at least mention that I’d like him to stop that? Idk

Obviously posting from my fake account so the person I’m referring to doesn’t see. Also, I wouldn’t post this here normally but I’ve gotten no help from other findoms other than to just ignore my feelings.
I’m kind of embarrassed to admit that I’ve become attached to my finsub. For reference, I’ve been doing this for about 2 yrs, and I currently have a 1.5yr long finsub (let’s call him Bob), a 4 month long finsub (Rob), and new couple of weeks old finsub (Zob?idfk). I’ve had others in between but I prefer long term relationships to truly get to know the sub otherwise I kinda feel like I’m a street hooker (nothing wrong with that!). And I actually love to get to know people and let them know about me. If you grew up on Omegle, you def know what I mean.
With Bob, we started off talking every single night and having sessions. It then dwindled down and he only reaches out for sessions every other week due to his family commitments. We still talk like how I would my normal everyday friends and check up on each other. For payment, he sends every Monday a weekly stipend (I approached him about stopping but he wanted to keep it as a reminder that this is transactional to some extent) and he pays me for the sessions separately. I truly see him as a close friend and I’m absolutely blessed to be able to have met him. I’ve even (with his permission) sent his kids gifts for bdays. I’m close to him but I wouldn’t be absolutely heartbroken if we ended this and just stuck to being friends.
With Rob, he’s a busy man and this relationship is only for pleasure. He contacts me on Sundays for sessions and pays for those only. Occasionally, he’ll pay for pictures when he’s having a bad day and just needs a quick release on his own. He’s like that coworker you see at work events and spend 3 hrs talking to but then don’t talk to outside of that.
Now Zob, yes I feel ridiculous writing that. Zob is something else. You could say that we started off the same way Rob and I started off, but somethings different about him. So far, our schedule has been a daily session after work that he pays for and then, after he finishes cleaning himself, we talk for hours. I can’t tell you why we even talk about but all I can describe it as is us trying to catch each other up on everything that has ever happened to us. Even the mundane details.
Here’s the issue, I think I might be emotionally attached to him. He’s been really busy for the past couple of days and all of a sudden I feel like I’m going through a breakup. I’ve literally cried so much I had to cancel my session with another finsub. We send each other “hru” texts but that’s it. I’m not sure if I should address this with him and end this while it’s still fresh.
