    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Potentially. I also have a very bad habit of getting inside my own head, essentially having a dialogue with myself about how much it sucks. That's part of why I posted that somewhat silly euphemism. In the past, I would have just gone for it without running it by someone else first. In all...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    No, it's just a focal point. Yeah, I miss my wife. My thought was along the lines of "If I'm getting fucked, I can put up with this shit better". But maybe that's wrong. Yeah, I know, stupid engineering brain thinks differently than most people.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    So, I had an "epiphany" driving home last night. After the shower, car time is best thinking time. I've been trying to think of a way to explain that sex is important and without it the whole system falls apart WITHOUT treading into "hurr durr I just like you for your tits" territory. The...

    Path of Exile

    Do people generally only do heavy +levels caster bows if they're only casting one spell? I've been trying to compare the bow setup to a dual wand setup. The gain to ED, which I didn't really need for clearing, it was already at 1M dps, is lost by Blight. On top of that, dual wands has a ton...

    Bill Burr VS Louis CK

    This is the first time I've ever seen someone tout Tom Segura even in the Top 10 of currently active comedians. His last special was kinda meh. I don't get the Chappelle clone comment.

    I'm sorry you're unable to adapt with the changing times, this seems like a personal issue. 2FA definitely has issues but you've failed to highlight any of them in a meaningful way besides "I've been inconvenienced because I'm lazy or forgetful".

    It was a gift from a friend. I got her to take it down, swear words being one of my arguments. Wish I didn't have to use it though. Bumper sticker was removed too.

    Yep, been getting a few of these giant warning signs recently. There's the aforementioned, a "RESIST" bumper sticker on our car, a "Fuck the Patriarchy" needlepoint hanging in our kitchen, attending Women's Marches locally and Schenectady. A persecution complex, basically.

    Honest question: how often do open relationships work? I don't think humans are wired to handle it.

    Path of Exile

    Looking for advice from ED/Contagion players. I'm considering eventually transitioning to the popular bow setup for ED but I'm still hesitant for a couple reasons. The bow offers less cast speed than two wands. And I'm actually not sure how to best utilize the 6L in my chest that ED would...

    The only platform exclusivity I'd like to see is Linux. So tired of Windows(at home and at work as a dev) and games are the only thing that are keeping me there.

    Path of Exile

    I've been liking the nexus now that the rewards are there. It takes a bit to figure out the paths, but it still feels worth it. And I like the "hurry" that decay can add to zones. It does help that I'm playing a Trickster with tons of cast speed, so this has to be one of the fastest builds...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    She makes quite a bit less than me but I'm trying very hard to not let that influence this situation. I've already had this dialogue with myself, just haven't had the balls to just lay it out there. Every new slight or inconvenience is easier to cope than the big pain of a divorce. I'm not...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I agree with this. The insecurity comes from having to memorize that, a stipulation from perl lover, ensuring reuse or compromised password strength. If you're storing your passwords properly in a vault instead of your head, then I have no problem with those types of passwords.

    Well, she's married to me, so yes. Also, yes. She has a long history of trying to medicate that issue.

    I never said I liked that said. The wife and I share a bank account because I like full transparency. Maybe you should detail your money situation with the missus because that seems to be important.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I keep giving her attention but she keeps saying no! I'm honestly not a doctor, I know I'm not educated enough to make that kind of call. I can be suspicious of the method of diagnosing, the rise in popularity, and the lifetime membership. But I'm not sit here and say "yeah, I know it ain't...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Well, I'm assuming, I guess incorrectly, that you share a sole bank account with the wife. If you have another account set aside with the understanding that you do with it as you please, then she has no ground on which to stand. I agree with @lurkingdirk, if that's the case here, as this is...

    The amount doesn't matter, you better forget that shit quick. You violated her trust, plain and simple. Circumstances might have mitigated this fight, but that would be my response to loaning $100 to a family member too.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I get that you're mad, but there's no way insecure passwords only hurts those they belong to. We use 2FA at work, it's a small usb key that requires no battery. Plug it in, press a button, a random set of characters appear as my username and then I input my password. As a backup, if I forget...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Why is that a shame? Divorce might be the right answer in his situation. In other news, my wife says I "bullied" her into going to the doctor for a second opinion. When I asked how that is even possible, you're an adult, she said "You don't get to decide how your actions are interpreted by...

    Aiming ED does indeed suck, luckily you don't have to cast it much. It should last through a boss burn phase easily. Soulrend, you shouldn't really need to aim. 4L Bane with 6L Soulrend should push you over 1M dps with ok gear.

    Path of Exile

    If you link your character, I can critique a bit more indepth. For reference, here's my Soulrend + Bane or ED PoB. An extra link will help a lot. Slower proj does absolutely nothing for you. Soulrend does a TINY bit of damage on hit, but otherwise it applies a debuff that does damage. The...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Cymbalta is one of the meds she's on. Not diagnosed by a specialist, a general practitioner. I have been pushing her to see a different doctor. She actually has something lined up tomorrow morning, but I'm not sure it's "because I want to get better" or "to shut him up". She's still mad at...

    I didn't like ED/Contagion while leveling either. And I still get that nagging feeling when I spend two casts to kill a pack that one soulrend or bane(or mostly any skill for that matter) would have taken care of. But, at the same time, get an outdoor map or the arcade memory fragment, you...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Yeah, I'm not sure I'd want to try an open marriage anyway. I can easily see myself looking forward to spending time with the other person, not my wife, and it's pretty easy to see how that kind of dynamic would end. I mean, that's the root of the issue right now. I don't look forward to...

    No second diagnosis. She doesn't even like the doctor that told her she has fibro yet continues to visit said doctor. Does nothing to manage the disease except take multitudes of pills and supplements. People's reaction to adversity(and I realize I'm probably guilty here too) is the most...
