"Hey, Bitch! God would NEVER let Aliens come down here! NEVER!" - Old Alabama Man while driving to work this morning.
|
We put a festive Alien decal on the Jeep window for Halloween this weekend. While on my way to work Monday morning and irate old man started screaming at me to roll my window down. Thinking there was something wrong with my car, I did, and he screamed at me: "Hey Bitch! God would NEVER let Aliens come down here! NEVER!" Then sped away. True story. Can't wait to leave Huntsville Alabama, Red States and the rest of the Bible Belt forever.

(WI) Friend told she can't wear her hijab at her on campus job.
|
My friend is a recent convert and has started wearing hijab around school. Today she told me that at her work **(a sub shop on campus but run by a separate company)** her boss told her she could not wear her hijab.
Is this legal in America or more specifically in Wisconsin where our university is located?
Because the shop is on campus could she or I talk to the dean of students about this?

What was the most awesome sleepover you've been at?
|
Pretty self explanatory. When you were a kid(or adult) what was the best sleepover you've had? What made it so awesome/epic?
So my story happened in I believe 7th grade during the summer. I am currently a Junior in high school so most of this I can still remember. My family was living at my grandparents at the time and they had a pretty big basement. The gradeschool I went to was small and my class only had like 10 students in it. I invited all of the guys to stay the night and there were 5 of us total. There really isnt much to do at the house so we had to figure out something to do. It started pretty normal, I guess. We had pizza and played video games till around 11PM. We were bored so we decided, hell, let's play some poker. We had no chips or money so we used corn flakes xD yes, corn flakes. After a while, someone found my airsoft guns. I had 2 semi-powerful pistols. So what do bored 7th graders do? We shot each other. But we didnt shoot eacher in a fight, we each took turns standing with our shirts off getting shot in the back. We were dumb, okay? Now around 5 AM we pick on one of the kids and tie him to a pole in the basement with some rope. He had no chance to get out and we 'pantsed' him. He was entirely embarrassed. Then karma stuck and around 6 AM we went outside and my friends locked me out of the house and tied me to my basketball pole and 'pansted' me. It took me around 10 minutes to get untied and pull up my pants. Atleast 3 people saw me.
Fast forward a while and we get the smart idea to make some Works Bombs. We just learned about them and thought we'd give them a try. We made 3. 2 with water bottles and 1 with a Gatorade bottle. I wrote a note to my grandfather on his door saying we went to the park. When we got there we proceeded to set off the 1st two in the soccer field. They were LOUD. There are houses around too, probably woke up all the people close by. We were a bit scared so we hurried off and set off the big boy. We decided to make it extra fun and place it in one of the plastic slides on the playground. It took much longer to go off because the plastic is tougher. But man, when it blew, it was huge. The noise it made could have been heard by the whole town, we went in to see what happened and I kid you not, above where the bottle was, was a big gaping hole of melted plastic where the bottle cap hit the top of the slide. We all busted out laughing then got freaked out because we heard police cars coming. We busted out asses out of the park and here comes the best part. We were just about to exit the park when my Grandpa drives in and stops right infront of the exit gate. We thought we were all screwed and in trouble. NOPE. He had no clue and instead asked us if we wanted to get breakfast at McDonalds. HELL YES. He was out gettaway car. Best night ever.
**tl;dr Pizza, video games, poker with corn flakes, tying people to poles and 'pantsing' them, shooting eachother in the back with airsoft guns, Works Bombs, melted plastic holes, police, Grandpa was our getaway car**

Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings?
|
My friends and I debate this all the time. Most of them like Lord of the Rings better but mostly based on the movies, not the books. I personally enjoy the movies but hate the books. I just love Harry Potter as a whole and its connection to my childhood. Which collection do you prefer more? (Can be based on movies and books or just one)

My grandmother is barring my brother, myself, and my mom from seeing my Alzheimer-plagued grandfather, what to do?
|
Hey Reddit,
So I received some terrible news yesterday, that my grandmother, who has power of attorney for my grandfather, who has late stage Alzheimer's disease, has barred my mother, my brother and I from seeing him at the nursing home.
I have a feeling that my aunt and uncle, who is funding him to stay in the home, is pulling the strings with this situation, as they are not on speaking terms with my mom right now due to unknown-to-me reasons. I am a little on fence with what to do.
Now I cannot confront my grandmother about the situation, as there is a language barrier. But I can talk with my aunt and uncle about it, as I am pretty sure they are trying to do this in spite of my mother.
I have been advised by my mom to wait on contacting anyone at this point, as it sort of reached its climax with the whole situation. This is also a time-crunch situation, as he is in poor health, both physically and mentally.
I have considered writing a strong-worded letter to both of them, as I tend to let my emotions get the better of me sometimes.
Anyone who has experienced this or similar, what did you do to overcome this situation?

An aggressive, highly-intelligent species has reached earth. They have advanced weaponry and already used EMP blasts to take out the power grid and internet. They have also decoded our DNA and released a lethal airborne virus on each continent. How do we fight back? Do we stand a chance?
|
Assume this is a planned attack with the goal of eradicating all life forms from the planet. This is only the initial stage of the attack. As the virus populates, they begin to attack the major military installations of every country on earth. All of near-orbit satellites have been destroyed and the GPS system no longer exists. Ham radio works for only short distances, as all long range transmissions have been scrambled. Autonomous drones already have complete air superiority over the United States, Russia, and China.
How would we fight back in a scenario with such dismal odds of success?

Now that Evelynn got a rework, how are people building/playing her?
|
I didn't play Evelynn ever before this patch, and I'm interested in trying her out a bit more in the jungle. I wasn't sure how to build her at first, so I went 9/12/9 and for runes I went attack speed reds, armor yellows, flat MR blues and movement speed quints. I started cloth+5pots and built wriggles first, ninja tabi or merc treads second, phage (into triforce later), wits end. Am I going about it right? Or are there better builds? I would like to hear some other opinions.

Is Howling Gale slightly faster on Victorious Janna?
|
Like the title is saying:
Is Howling Gale faster on Victorious Janna than on her other Skins?
As a Janna-Main Player, the Howling Gale feels slightly faster (it is really really minimal) on her new Skin. Can anybody proof this or do i get irritated due the different tornado style? Because i don't like that Skin that much as the Frost Queen Skin, but if Howling Gale is faster on the Victorious, i would use this.
To clear it up, it feels like going off a bit faster.
Can someone proof, or give some experience to it? Or am i just irritated?
Thx alot

Since TPB only does magnet links now, how to save torrents to be used between clients?
|
I have a dual boot system, and had the perfect set-up for continuing torrent downloads after booting into the other system. I had .torrent files saved in one folder, and each client would auto-load them and download them to another common folder. It worked flawlessly. Today, however, I went onto Pirate Bay and realized they don't do .torrent files at all - I'm pretty pissed now, even though they say it's an "improvement". I went through all the preferences on Transmission, and I couldn't find anything to save the magnet link onto the disk. So, how can I share magnet links between clients?

Been drinking Port Brewing Dawn Patrol this weekend and if no one had told me, I never would have known it was 3.2 abv. Any other really low abv beers out there to try for those days you want way more than a couple?

I should also say the Dawn Patrol is an american brownish style and I don't normally go in for that but it was really a nice change from the ever escalating abv's I have been drinking of late. Also nice to feel no ill effects the next day.
Edit: Thanks all for the great tips. I have made a list! This is very good as I have recently found that the IPAs and Double IPAs etc I have been drinking have really started hurting my stomach if I have more than 1.

Windows 8 reddit app devs please read!
|
I am the author of Baconit and I created a service called BaconSync that allows users to sync visited links between there phone and browsers. BaconSync also allows has a "chrome-to-phone" style url push system where users can send web pages directly from their browser to their phones.
Since I am not making a Windows 8 app, I would like to offer all devs making a reddit app for Windows 8 to hook into this service. The service is completely free, no cost to you or your users. It uses a very simple and lightweight API that is very easy to use.
I think it would be really cool to see users syncing their reddit accounts between phone, tablet, and desktop.
For more info on BaconSync click here, and if you are interested please PM me and I will send you what you need to know! Thanks!
**EDIT: I am making a Windows Phone 8 version of Baconit, not a Windows 8 version!! Sorry for the typo!!**

Incredible win for the Isles tonight in Washington! 3-0!

Some thoughts after attending my first Isles game live in a year
JT, Hamonic and Nino all played outstanding. It’s awesome.
Hamonic is amazing, I thought so watching the games, but seeing him live was great, he does just about everything right.
We played a solid game tonight and I’m very happy. How were the refs from your POV? Seemed okay to me, a couple questionable calls though. Damn were those Caps fans bitchy though and really sore losers. Yelled at me in the Restroom telling me to go back to Staten Island. I promptly reminded them which team had more Stanley Cups. Yeah it was awesome.

I wanna learn a few 'common' skills. Know any sites where I can learn those?
|
I'm interested in learning a few new skills, specifically ones that could be considered common. I'm a programmer, so where a computer is involved I'm golden; Outside of that....I got nothin'. Cars specifically.
Specifically, I've been having a few car problems, and can't really work on it. I don't know much about the engine, but I'd really like to learn more about the electrical system (stereo, power, etc...) and how to work with it. I like to learn through tutorials, so if you have any through the internet, I'd love to learn through them.
Also, when people talk to me about computers, there's always something they try to bring up that they know nothing about, but couldn't be more basic for me (whenever they talk about the internet). In your specific field of work and/or study, if you know a few things that you consider to be common knowledge and are shocked when people don't know them, please, share them. If you have links to relevant info, even better! (Scientists, mechanics, electricians; looking at you)

Getting rid of current Ubuntu install without mucking up GRUB?
|
I'm looking to reinstall Ubuntu. Usually I'd just wipe the drive and install anew. But this is my work computer, where I need to dualboot Windows 7 and Ubuntu.
I like to use MBR over GRUB (boots into black MBR and I can select either Ubuntu 12.04 or Windows 7) instead of the other way around, because it makes wiping and replacing Ubuntu (something I do very frequently) much easier. However, I'm currently using GRUB over MBR (when I boot, it goes to Ubuntu's aubergine GRUB from which I can select either Ubuntu or Windows 7).
To this end, I'll probably use Wubi instead of my usual .iso as it automatically sets up MBR and GRUB the way I want it (though not being able to just punch in my hostname annoys me) unless anyone has reasons not to.
But here's the question: How do I get rid of my current Ubuntu install without mucking up GRUB and ruining everything? Do I just fire up dskman in Windows? That sounds like a bad idea. Is there some command I need to use in the GRUB console?
**tl;dr:** Ubuntu has gone bad, I need to reinstall; how do I do it without upsetting GRUB?

Are Christians against organ donation?
|
For the majority of my life, I've grown up in the bible belt, surrounded by radical evangelicals.
Recently, I overheard a conversation between a girl who was a transplant recipient and a man...
* Girl: Are you an organ donor?
* Man: No I'm not.
* Girl: Would you please consider it? You could save many lives.
* Man:**I need my body to be in tact for when Jesus comes back and resurrects me.**
From a christian point of view, this really sounded like a selfish answer. I wanted to interrupt him and state that the if you read the bible, Jesus said "...give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven."
So is this anti-organ donation attitude the case with most Christians or just radicals?

What do you wear under zentai/lycra/spandex/morph suits?
|
I ordered one for a costume, but when I wear it, there's a bit of a penile problem...so much so that it makes wearing the suit NSFW even while I have underpants underneath, when, well, I don't want to wear it for NSFW reasons, I want to wear it similarly to greenman or spiderman. Whenever you see an add on the morphsuit websites, it's entirely SFW, but when you see the majority of amateur cosplay wearers of it, all you see is BAM! Penis. Clear outlines where you might as well be streaking.

Is it too soon to start agility training?
|
Hi guys, this is my buddy Thelonious. He's currently four months old and weighs 30 pounds. My wife has been very interested in doing agility training with him. He's wonderful at following directions by now and with the help of obedience school he has become capable of following commands like stay, heel, take it, leave it, get it, etc. The trainer has let us know that they will start an agility training course in 4 weeks, and that he could enroll if we want him to. My concern is about the age of the pup and whether it would be okay for him to start doing it or if it would put too much strain on his body. I've noticed that some dogs start when they are quite a bit older. I don't doubt that the trainer's intentions are good, but I wanted to ask for opinions on this subreddit before deciding.

Horizon Pharma (HZNP) Announces FDA Approval of RAYOS® (Prednisone), down 11.52% AH
|
DEERFIELD, Ill. – July 26, 2012 – Horizon Pharma, Inc., (NASDAQ: HZNP) announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved RAYOS® (prednisone) delayed-release tablets (1 mg, 2 mg and 5 mg) to treat a broad range of diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (see full prescribing information at www.RAYOSrx.com). The FDA approval was supported by data bridging the pharmacokinetics of RAYOS to immediate-release prednisone and data from the Circadian Administration of Prednisone in RA (CAPRA-1 and 2) trials. The CAPRA-2 trial demonstrated that people with moderate to severe RA treated with RAYOS experienced a statistically significant improvement in ACR20 response criteria compared to placebo. The CAPRA-1 trial supported the overall safety of RAYOS.
Results from CAPRA-2 demonstrated:
A statistically significant improvement in ACR20 response criteria, the primary study endpoint, for patients who were treated with RAYOS compared to the placebo group (47% vs. 29%; p-value = 0.001).
A statistically significant improvement in ACR50 response compared to placebo (22% vs. 10%; p-value = 0.007) and an improvement in the more stringent ACR70 response criteria (7% vs. 3%; p-value = 0.0984). Both ACR50 and ACR70 were pre-specified secondary endpoints.

Broadcast Receiver / isWiredHeadsetOn() Question
|
Good morning,
I'm working on an application and one of the features I want to add is the ability to stop audio when the headphone is pulled out. For some reason, the isWiredHeadsetOn() function is very inconsistent. It either works perfectly or returns false every time. I have MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS allowed in the manifest file. I have it in a BroadcastReceiver and it is both registered and unregistered. The BroadcastReceiver is tied to the headphone state (so, whenever the headphones are removed/inserted, it is fired). I am running it on Android 2.3.5. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
EDIT: Fixed it by adding a Thread.sleep() statement in onReceive to wait for the headphone state to stabilize.

Why does it seem that people in the suburbs are less inclined to tip?
|
Hey guys! today is my last day working on a cupcake truck, so I finally feel like I can ask this question. Basically I spent weekdays in the city, but on Saturdays I brought the truck out to the suburbs. I can have a horrible day in the city, come back with half the stock I left with, and still have a decent amount of cash tips- around $15-20. However, when I go out to the 'burbs which are nearly always insanely busy stops (I'm talkin a line that does not quit for an hour) I often drive away with $5 or less. Naperville is really the only exception. I don't expect tips anywhere, but it's hard to dismiss the huge difference between the two crowds. So... What's up with that?
tl;dr great tips no matter how many/few cupcakes I sell in the city, shitty tips when in the suburbs even though I almost always sell out and the crowds are crazy

git merge not seeing difference between two branches

Hi all!
I have two branches, master and testing.
I use "testing" to try out new things. If they work, I commit them to "testing", checkout master, then merge master testing.
However, git merges everything except for one file. The file is committed (git status on the "testing" branch shows nothing) and there is definitely a difference.
There is no message or error of any sort regarding the file.
Does anyone know why git merge would overlook a file change?

I met this girl at college, and we've really hit it off. We have a lot in common and imo she's a great girl. I'm starting to really like her now, and I thought I may have a really good shot with her, until she mentioned during one of our convos how her bf played the same sports I did in high school.
I don't know whether or not to just keep talking to her or not, seeing that I don't want to be strung along by the romantic feelings I'm developing about her. But, I don't want to lose the connection I've already established with her either.
Also, I'm really not that inconsiderate douche who would try to steal a girl from her bf for my own personal gain, so anything of that sort is totally out of the question.
So, yeah. What would be the best course of action for me here?

Crazy custom image problem - default keyboard input language
|
So, I'm stumped and Google fails me. I'm creating and using custom WIM files in my imaging system. Currently I'm using them with MDT but I was running into this before when I was using a more manual process.
**Here's the problem**
Whenever I deploy my custom image it randomly sets the default keyboard input language to either Korean, English, Japanese, or Chinese. There seems to be no consistency in which language it sets it to.
**Here's what I've already tried**
Rebuilt the image from scratch two times. Triple checked the sysprep file to ensure that the locale settings were all correct. Specified the locale settings in the customsettings.ini for MDT. Checked the MDT sysprep file to make sure it was also correct.
I'm completely stumped. If it was consistent I feel like I might be able to track down the source of the problem, but the seeming randomness of it is bizarre. It's probably worth noting that on all computers I deply the image to, regardless of which language is set as the default, all four (technically five, there are two types of Chinese input available) languages are set to be available in the language bar.

A theory I wanna discuss about people that don't like trees as much as we do.
|
I was pretty generous with my word choice for the title of this post; there are plenty of people that HATE trees and I wanna dig deep down and try to figure out why they don't like it. I know this is obvious to say, but people that don't like trees simply don't have a true understanding of its effects. We all know that it just adds a little happy to our average days, it makes good days great days, and it makes video games way more fun/stimulating. We all know this, but other peoples don't know that. So my question is: "What do people that don't understand trees think that trees does?"
So here is my psychological explanation for this phenomenon. People believe that smoking trees is its own activity and it interferes with daily routine stuffs. But in reality it is nothing like that. I am going to try to bridge a parallel that might make my theory make more sense. When I am doing a leisurely activity (watching movies/shows, vidya games, listening to music, etc) I am then not doing something productive like school work or any work. I think this makes sense to all people, even people that don't like trees. Leisure is a very natural and human thing ("working for the weekend" encompasses this idea, lots of people just work so they can get to their leisurely activities of the weekend). So, when I am doing those leisurely activities, I like to enhance them. Is that so wrong? Some people hear that and think it is very wrong. But caffeine is another drug that is used to help enhance activities, but caffeine is helpful for when people are doing things like work or other things that are productive (not leisurely stuff) and caffeine is totally ok. Both drugs are enhancing an individuals experience, so why are trees so bad?!
Thanks for reading dudes. Sorry if some of what I wrote appeared condescending, I just wanna be sure I got my message across fully. I love all of you. Thank you for existing, you guys are doing great, keep it up.
TL;DR: Do people not realize that caffeine is a drug too? And caffeine is used to enhance experiences just like weed is?
Am I wrong? Is caffeine not as much like weed as I think it is?
(I drink a lot of caffeine and I also smoke trees and that is how I came to this conclusion, but maybe I have it wrong)
Is leisure less important than being productive? I'd go crazy if I couldn't chill out sometimes, life would get too stressful and I would likely kill myself or something terrible like that. Is leisure less valuable?

To the the person that picked up a drunk stranger on 6th St on Friday and gave them a ride home...
|
I thank you to no end for not raping, hurting, robbing, or maiming my little sister in anyway. She didnt have your number so we couldn't call to thank you the next day, but you deserve a medal for being a genuinely good person and thanklessly helping out someone in distress. She was so drunk she couldn't tell me where she was or anything. Her friends ditched her at a bar about an hour earlier, and no one could find her. I truly thank you for caring enough to stop and help her. Much Respect
Addition: Also, I won't defend her stupidity in regards to not having a good plan on getting home. However, I will say that this simple act of kindness makes for a good example of why most of the people in this city are good folks. Her and I definitely had a talk about being aware of her surroundings and how she could have become a "statistic", but i imagine most people have had a time in their lives where you had to rely on a stranger for help.

Hi SRSters: can we talk about changing your last name when getting married?
|
Well, this is obviously a throwaway because I don't want it on my actual account. But hi!
My boyfriend of ~3 years proposed to me today (omg yay!) and we've been discussing the name-change-situation. For reference sake, I am an immigrant to my fiance's (feels weird to say!) country of birth.
I have a big clunky last name that constantly gets mispronounced/misspelled here (though I don't have an issue with it otherwise/in my country). He's quite attached to his last name because it's uncommon and very ... cute. He's indicated he's not terribly keen on changing his name for this reason and that's fine with me. I wouldn't mind changing mine so much (minus all the passport-changing paperwork etc), but I realize that this isn't helping smash the patriarchy, as it were. My last name is my biological father's last name hyphenated with my adoptive father's last name, so it's just an exchange of male "owners," basically, that kind of ... upsets? me.
I really don't know where else to post this, but what do? What have those of you married/engaged (to anybody of any gender!) decided on for yourselves?
This is also partially spurred on by an SRSDiscussion recently about women changing their names or not :) And I'm sorry for the heteronormativeness of this all, I didn't mean to be excluding some members of SRSWomen because I love all y'all!

Need you help Please with parenting plan advice (details inside)
|
I have been trying to find information on international parenting plans. Currently the state in charge of this is WA.
1) Complete Sole custody parent (myself - Mother)
2) Bio-father has visitation (2x a month but rarely makes one if any)
I re-married to a man who happens to be from Europe, we would like to move there to provide better education, better employment for both of us, and better health care.
Child is currently on State health as the bio-father either doesn't have insurance or refuses to carry it with his work ( still haven't an answer from bio father -- he is supposed to be responsible for 50% health care)
This move would be beneficial most to the child as well as to the adults. (more details below)
Can anyone help with how I may draft a parenting plan that would work for overseas? The added if needed information is below....
Thank you all ..
TL;DR : Want to Move to Europe how to work a parenting plan?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BELOW -- FULL "shortened" Story of case
--------------
Long story.. but I will try to make it follow-able.
1) Seperaterd Oct 2008 - Divorce Final May 5 2009.
2) XH given visitation of every Saturday, supervised for 4hours
3) 8 months gone by - Parenting plan was revised as XH only made it once a month. New plan 4 hours once a month on 3rd Saturday all still supervised.
4) This went sort of well for about 8 months, I was Re-married and wanted to move and begin a new life, applied to move out of country - I live in WA, was moving to Vancouver BC. went to court, was granted the move. Same visitation schedule, just location change.
5) became ill and couldn't complete the move - notified XH - and offered to still drive the whole way to new visitation location. XH stopped all communication for 6 months, no calls, no e-mail, no nothing, out of the blue called me and told me to have my new husband adopt him he was done, I agreed, filed a new parenting plan w/ termination of parental rights attached, he got them and showed to the court date.
6) Court date arrives(Feb1-2012) told the courts it was because he finally had work that he stopped all communication. Told the courts that he wanted more time. Was granted unsupervised visitation, 4 hours a month on 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month. Made the 3rd Sunday in Feb, Non in March, called to say he may make one in April. He verbally agreed to let us move while in court, so that we can have work. He Knows my husband is from Europe and that we would like to go there for the Education /health care / husbands family as this is the only grandchild at this point. He said he is willing to let us go if we come back for one month a year and he can have the child overnights on the days he doesn't work (Mon-wed) and then the child would be with me (Thur-Sun). He was told by the judge to make a relationship with his child within 6 months and then he may get more visitation. this ends in July.
Has anyone dealt with this problem or something similar? What was your parenting plan like?
Do/should I have him be responsible for payment on half the trip (me one way and him the other ?)?
Should I fight just to be done with visitation?
Would like to know if there are others who have gone overseas and had a parenting plan and how it was done, the lawyer I spoke to wasn't much help as we live in a tiny rural area with not many choices on legal.
Thank you all ..

Is it ever going to be possible that computer graphics generation/image manipulaton becomes so good that we can no longer tell real from manufactured images?
|
I'm sure most English speakers have heard the phrase "I need to see it to believe it," or some variant of it. There are some things you just need to see a video or picture of to believe, or at least there are those that feel this way.
Current graphics engines and whatnot are already very good, but what happens if or when graphics engines gets so good that we can't tell a real video or photo from a fake one? Is it going to be possible to make a fake so good that even under close inspection it appears real? By close inspection, I mean using computer technology mainly, but obviously under human inspection as well.

I have so much trouble trusting my SO and he may miss out on a trip by trying not to hurt me.. What do I do?
|
My SO (M/20) and I (F/20) have been together for almost 3 years now. He's a wonderful man, and he hasn't done anything to prove himself untrustworthy, as far as I know. The only minor incidents have been where he's forgotten to tell me he's hung out with women, sometimes in seemingly intimate situations (but he always apologized after I explained it was inappropriate in my eyes). He's gotten much better at this though, and now appears to tell me everything he plans (and all his plans have been appropriate).
I've never been cheated on or had any personal experiences with cheaters. So, I have no idea why I have such a hard time trusting my boyfriend in *any* situation that involves other women.
We are in a long-distance relationship and he has many female friends (but I have many male friends, so I can't really judge him on that). He wants to go on a boating trip with a bunch of people, mostly some single men and quite a few single women, and the idea of it is driving me nuts. I absolutely can't go with him because of scheduling conflicts. I keep thinking of all of the bad things that could happen and he can tell it's making me uncomfortable. I want to trust him and let him go have fun, but I just can't... What do I do?

Backing track challenge - show off your blues chops!

Hi folks, trying something new. I figured I'd try creating a simple backing track, and then anyone who is interested can take a stab at filling in the rest -- lead guitar, additional rhythm elements, whatever you like. I'm really interested to hear where folks can take it. Mainly, I hope *someone* gets *some* use out of this, because it took me for-friggin-ever to do! (TIL I have no rhythm.)
Genre: Blues
Key: E
Tempo: 150 bpm
Listen to it here:
Ready to try recording along? Download here (right click, save as):
It should be as simple as importing that mp3 into your recording software of choice and having at 'er. Rhythm guitar and bass are panned hard right/left so lead can go right up the middle.
edit: if anyone wants to do something more drastic (like re-record a terrible bass track, for example) here's mp3s for each track: rhythm, drums, and bass:

Looking to get a high-end flashlight. Very interested in the Prometheus flashlights. Have a few questions for you guys.
|
At the moment I've got; a 3D cell LED Maglite, a Maratac AAA copper, and a Fenix LD20. The Maratac lives on my keys and does more than sit there and look pretty. The Maglite stays at home, usually in my bedside table. The Fenix is my workhorse flashlight. Stays in the car mostly, although I do take it with me when I go out at night or into a movie theater.
These flashlights are all great, but I felt like I was missing something. I was missing a high quality, super bright (400+lumens) flashlight. Found the Prometheus lights and immediately fell in love with them. They are like pieces of art.
Right now I am basically debating which model to get. The Alpha Ready-Made light looks very nice, but it is not made 100% in house by Jason (which was part of the allure for me). The Blue Label lights are more expensive, but you get what you pay for. I'd be interested in a custom made light, but my budget is around $450 for everything. I'm talking flashlight, battery, charger, and extra o-rings.
If anyone here owns the Prometheus Alpha Ready-Made, I'd love to know what you think of it. Or if anyone knows about ordering a custom light from Jason, I'd be interested to hear more about the process.
Here are my basic requirements:
-400+ lumens
-handcrafted/artisan type flashlight
-max budget ~ $450 (that's including battery and charger)

Got a 3DSXL, now thinking about getting a regular 3DS as well...
|
I recently picked up a 3DSXL on an impulse buy, thinking I could always sell it if I didn't like it. Turns out it like it. As in, really like it. The only downside I see is that it's a bit too bulky to carry around for Streetpassing. While most people are trading in their 3DS for an XL, I'm actually thinking about picking up a cheap used regular 3DS as an out-of-house device and keeping the XL at home. I know I won't be able to transfer my digital games without buying them again, but I'm not too bothered with that. If I understood correctly, physical games save on the cart itself, and that's most important to me.
Anyone else using both a 3DS and an XL? Are there any downsides to this setup that I might have missed? I'd like to know your thoughts...

I understand this is completely normal for somebody who is just now learning and isn't exposed to nearly enough Chinese conversation.

What would you think of a WW2 shooter that showed evidence of the Holocaust in a vivid, noticeable, but not over-the-top or disrespectful manner?

The Holocaust was, in all seriousness, a horrific event which still affects people to this day. I just realized, however, that I've never seen any mention of the concentration camps or Hitler's final solution in any WW2 game. How would you react to the inclusion of this, assuming the game doesn't treat the subject immaturely, as it is definitely a very tender subject, and rightfully so?

|
Several classes (the Monk in particular) have at least one if not several passives and skill runes which reduce enemy damage by a percentage. Witch Doctor has one that reduces damage of enemies hit with his poison abilities, etc. I feel like stacking this extra mitigation after armor and resists could make Inferno easier, but I don't have the team composition to try it.

[REQUEST] Recreate a female version of this basic cartoon?

My wife and I have had a pretty shiteful year (her more than me) and we can only afford to give each other cards this Christmas. I've been holding onto this cartoon for a while with the intention of putting it in her card for some more encouragement, but thought a female version of the human would be more appropriate.
Now, I found the original on Reddit and I realise that this is someone else's work (don't know if it was a Redditor or not) but without a copyright stamp I'm unable to track down the original artist so I'll understand if no-one wants to change someone's work, but I figure it was worth a shot in asking.
It would be hugely appreciated if anyone can help make Christmas a little bit less of a crapfest for her this year.

Just wondering if it was possible? I personally wouldnt mind having to submit proof to a moderator to become an approved submitter. We could have a thread for non professionals to post in if they need help finding therapy services or even create a new subreddit for that if necessary.
EDIT: To clarify I do not want to provide any services on this subreddit rather stop people from attempting to use the subreddit for free services.. the proof would be to approve people to create threads and make the subreddit a professional tool to be shared with other professionals/students

(Spoilers All) The Pig Boy and the man who took his face
|
Something that stuck out at me on my most recent re-read... The death of Pate, and Jaquen seemingly taking over his face. Has Jaquen ACTUALLY said he is a Faceless Man? I actually doubt it now.
-The Kindly Man said he does not know him (not that big of a deal, but still)
-He was caught, and imprisoned. I can't see an FM screwing up that badly.
-The biggest thing for me, he killed Pate. My reason for having an issue with this is the fact that when Arya was tasked to kill her target, she was told to kill no one else, as they were not fit to be the judge. So even if he's on a mission, why kill an innocent? Doesn't that go against the beliefs of the Faceless Men?
Here's my thought (tinfoil time); Jaquen is NOT a Faceless Man. I think he is connected to the Red God's faith, judging by comments he's made, and the glamours he's done. I think there's a deeper game here than "the FM want to kill the dragons", considering Jaquen was locked up WELL before Dany birthed her dragons anyways. Any thoughts?
EDIT: Good comments everyone, thanks for the discussion! Definitely changed my mind here, but now I'm wondering if he's not in fact a rogue agent. Rather than being out to kill the dragons, per se, I'm wondering if they're not looking for a way to in fact hatch/control the dragons instead.

What did Europeans think of the military innovations of the U.S. civil war?
|
The war itself was quite different in character to most European wars, what with the draft, new killing machines, and huge area of operations. The war has always struck me as a prelude to 20th century total war. I'm curious to know how fairly impartial Europeans thought of the war across the pond.Also how would the civil war compare to the franco-prussian in terms of scale?

A question regarding the Elder Scrolls, (as the scrolls)
|
Sorry to bother you o mighty scholars, but I had a question, and an idea about the ingame elder scrolls.
I was playing Skyrim and in the main quest where you go to the College of Winterhold to get the information about where I could find one you talk to the Orc librarian, and he explains briefly that an elder scrolls let's you see all possible pasts and all possible futures.
Taking in regard of the CHIM and the theory of dragon breaks, isn't it possible that an elder scroll is their version of, the game itself or something like that? Since when we play all we do is considered canon, and since all of us play, "all possible pasts and all possible futures happen"?
Just my thoughts I had, not really fully thought through, but maybe you get the idea.

Could Obama successfully mediate the Chicago teachers strike and be the hero?
|
It might not be very presidential, but if Obama calls both sides to DC for a 15 minute meeting and puts a workable proposal on the table, how could either side say no? It's Rahm, it's a teacher's union, it's Chicago....seems like he could pull it off. He'd be a pro-education problem solver. If a prolonged strike is a disaster for Obama's campaign, wouldn't a swift resolution, brokered himself, be a great move?

(mod?) Suggestion: COFFEE!
|
So yeah, my suggestion is that you could make coffee out of milk/water, cocoa beans and a coffee cup.
You would make a coffee cup by putting an iron bar to the middle of the crafting table. That would give you 4 cups, they are refillable. And you could put all the ingredients in the crafting box anyway you want; a cup, 4 cocoa beans and something liquid (I don't recommend lava)
Coffee would increase your speed and strenght for a little time and it would give you half a hunger back.
And yes, I know there is a speed potion but it's harder to get than beans 'n' milk.
Is this a good idea, r/minecraft?

Is having your bag searched at 'BIg W' normal!?
|
I'm from the UK and have been in Australia for roughly a month. I just went to a Big W store and paid for some $8 pumps using the self checkout machine. I then packed the pumps in my rucksack and tossed the receipt in the bin. All the while a woman who worked there watched this. Then, just as I'm about to leave, she asks to search my bag and check my receipt, knowing full well I'd just chucked it in the bin and all I had in my bag was the pumps.
My question is, is it normal for bags to be checked upon leaving a store? What are the laws? Surely only a police officer may ask to search your possessions?
Thanks.

[TOMT] [song] Song probably titled "This Christmas Time"...
|
Okay, there's a christmas song that plays at the bookstore I work at, but I've never been able to find out who it's by, and what the real title is.
Among the lyrics are "It's christmas time / and I'm feeling kinda frisky / (something something) hoping that you'll kiss me / by the fireside, it's christmas time."
The last minute or so of the song is just a child's voice telling a story about what he got for christmas one year.
Very mellow tune, one of those few christmas songs I can honestly stand. Whenever I hear it, I immediately think "John Hiatt", but I'm sure it's not.
Any help anybody can give me would be desperately appreciated!

When I tilt my monitor, I can see my post-processing edits. How can I fix this?
|
So, when I tilt my monitor, I can see certain aspects of my post-processing edits. Same thing happens when I look at the photo on some of my other devices (like my phone).
For example, right now, I brought the exposure down, and used a gradient on the layer mask. When looking at the photo normally in photoshop, it looks fine. If I tilt the monitor, I can see lines where I must have did a bad job at creating the mask.
I know this is just a part of life in digital photography. But, how can I make sure my post-processing edits don't have these obvious problems on other devices?
Would a higher quality display make these problems more obvious during editing? (I have a non-retina macbook pro)

Reddit, how do I handle Dad Tears?
|
As a girl, I just don't know how to help, and with the current chain of events in 2012, I need to know. I have seen him cry more since the beginning of this year than ever before, and we've barely cleared a month. His dog, a three-legged rescue, drowned and we just had our home sold out from beneath us. How do you comfort a dad?

Help for changing locale at runtime within the app!
|
Hi, I'm trying to change locale at runtime in my app.
I've a ListPreference in my PreferenceActivity for selecting the application language from a list.
I'm using my own Application class to handle the change, that I've added to the manifest in the android:name attribute of the application tag, in the onCreate method I use this code to update the preferences:
Configuration config = getBaseContext().getResources().getConfiguration();
config.locale = locale; // locale is a newly created Locale class
getBaseContext().getResources().updateConfiguration(config, getBaseContext().getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
I thought that the Application method:
public void onConfigurationChanged(Configuration newConfig)
should be called when the configuration changes (I called updateConfiguration() explicitly) but it's never called, so the language is never changed. If I exit the application with the back button and launch it again the onCreate() method of my Application class also is not called (probably the previous Application object is not destroyed?). Deploying again the app will surely force to run the onCreate that will set the previously selected language saved in the preferences.
Some suggestions? Thanks

What is the effect of scale length and number of frets on the tone/sound?
|
The shorter scale length guitars I have heard sound warmer and more bassy than the longer scale lengths. For example, a PRS Custom 24 sounds a little brighter than a Gibson Les Paul (and both are humbucker pickup guitars, though different pickups).
Is it true that (broad generalization) shorter scale lengths result in warmer tones?

I need help finding business clothing for summer that keeps me cool.
|
I need help staying cool at work this summer. I live in awful Texas heat. Last year it was routinely 100-110 each day. My work duties require frequent stairs, carrying/pushing something, and walking all over the campus and I'm on a few medications that make it very easy to feel overheated. I'm 5'8", about ~180lbs if it's relative.
Summer dress code: Can wear: Tailored shirts or blouses, Knit sweaters and sweater sets, polo style shirts, professional slacks or skirts, professional capri pants (below the knee), Sandals, Pressed Khakis
Cannot wear: Tshirts, jeans or sweats, shimmery fabrics, spaghetti strap shirts, tank or tube tops, sundresses, cargo pants/capri shorts, skirts above the knee, flip flops
I wear my hair up all the time. I already wear cotton blouses that aren't too tight and I still sweat like a beast every day. I'm not sure what else to do. I was wondering if any of you ladies knew of a clothing retailer that sold 'business professional' clothes that worked like the sweat wicking work out clothes? Like underarmor in disguise?
Or maybe business clothes that have hidden inseam pockets I can hide an ice pack in? :x I'm hoping I'm not out of luck.

Highcharts has been great for me up until now, does anyone have a suggestion for a graphing library that gives more control?
|
I'm doing a lot of dashboard type apps and our designer doesn't do any JS like Highcharts. Even still, I'm trying to present data in ways that is becoming pretty difficult with Highcharts. Anyone any other suggestions of libraries that I could look at?
I found D3.js which I'm going to play about with and see how it goes.

Would it be moral to drug the water supply if it's beneficial for our well-being? [applied ethics]
|
Many bioethicists like Jacob M. Appel have very controversially advocated for adding trace amounts of lithium to the water supply because serious scientific studies have started to surface showing that it reduces suicide among populations while still being safe for them, as seen here. One of his chief theoretical and philosophical arguments is that since we already have fluoride, an arguably perfectly safe component in our water supplies which has proved to be very effective in reducing our cavities, we should merely expand upon this idea and add more elements to the water supply if they are truly safe and effective for populations.
Unfortunately this idea will most certainly pit us in the classic battle between utilitarianism vs. deontology/libertarian ethics. As a utilitarian, I find this idea to be very worthy of serious consideration if it is an absolute fact that new drugs added to the supply are as safe as fluoride and will increase social well-being like with the reduction of crimes and a betterment of our medical health. It is worth addressing however, even with utilitarianism, if governments are morally fit and trustworthy enough to administer these things else it would lead to abuse and an actual **decrease** in utilitarian social-well being. Kantian deontologists and libertarians however will regardless shut down the idea because it violates certain moral principles like voluntary consent.
Lastly, this train of moral thinking was explored, but to the extreme, in Aldous Huxley's famous novel *Brave New World*.
