Just got my electricity bill, and it's pretty much the same as it normally is! Nice!


if you just did the mining a few days ago, that may not be reflected in that bill. look at the billing period to be sure.

i thought you said your wallet was stolen

either way, im sorry that happens to you. i've had my car broken into before and i just felt so violated. the fuckers ripped out my stereo (wasn't even a nice one) and took a couple sun-visor CD holder things. i suspect the crackhead got $10 for the stereo, if that, and probably zero for the CDs because they were outside of the cases. i was furious.

Sure, my bf is kinda racist against Indians (stealing jobs and all that jaz, so he claims).


you need to point out to him that jobs cannot be stolen. jobs are given to individuals by employers. if he is angry at someone for 'taking' his job it's because the free market decided he wasn't the best candidate for the job offered and he should improve his skill set(s) or be willing to work for less income.

I thought about biting on Titanfall 2 but I know it'll get to the $5 range eventually

Mind you, the MP will likely be dead by then but the campaign sounds decent


Titanfall 2 is one of the best MP shooters I've played in a long time. The MP is still very active on PC and I don't have problems finding games. I suck and I still have fun with it.

The campaign is excellent, one of the best FPS single player campaigns I've played in a long time. it's like 10 hours long, definitely worth $20 for that alone, IMHO. $2/hour for good entertainment is a steal.

my mind is always racing with a million thoughts


meditation is the answer. it trains your brain to focus and stop racing around.

seriously, read up on basic meditation techniques and give it a shot. or at least try it to help you sleep

https://www.reddit.com/r/Meditation/wiki/faq

Here is a very simple instruction:

Set a timer for your desired length of meditation.
Sit upright on a chair, cushion or rolled up towel, with your back straight.
Close your eyes. Breathe through your nose.
As your breath rises and falls, bring your mind gently to the feeling of the air moving in and out around the tips of your nostrils. Keep your mind there.
As you do this, other thoughts and feelings will arise.

Maybe your foot itches. Maybe you've got something you want to do immediately after you get up, or two days from now and it keeps coming to mind. Doesn't matter.

Note these thoughts and feelings as they come up, try to avoid judging them as good or bad, just notice they happened and gently come back to your breath.

Under the more detailed discussion of types of meditation, this would probably fall under mindfulness of the breath. It isn't your only option. Please read on and find out what will work for you.

I don't support the burqa, but I also don't think we should be combating patriarchal bullshit by telling women what they're not allowed to wear.


yup. if a woman wanted to wear a t-shirt that said "i am inferior to my male counterparts and i submit accordingly" that's totally her prerogative and i don't think anyone should be allowed to tell her not to wear it.

nope and it blows my mind that women willingly wear them. when i see one i feel like its the woman saying "i'm cool with being treated as inferior to my male counterparts". i understand that some of them view it as a cultural thing, but the REASON it became a cultural thing was because of repression and sexism.

my most frequent use my tablet is to read the news in the morning while i eat breakfast at the table. its the perfect size for that, doesn't take up too much space but it's large enough to read comfortably.

second most frequent use case is when i travel. its much nicer to watch a movie or play a game on a larger screen (compared to my phone).

sometimes when im playing vidya and i need a visual aid for something (like a map, or some other graphical information) i use the tablet if my phone screen isn't large enough.
