Hi, I’d like to lament a little bit here and see if you all would like to make some suggestions for me too. I’ve have consistently encountered different issues through 3 different speakers that I’ve tried using with my laptop...
Dating is odd to me. I do not really know what my motivations are. If I actually find someone. What then? What will we do? How different will our relationship be from a regular friendship (besides you know what). And should it be?...
It’s very exclusive and more intimate physically and emotionally than a good friend. That’s my interpretation anyway.
besides you know what). And should it be?
We’re adults here. You can say the word sex on the internet, and yes.
To me, it seems like you may not be the type of person that feels like they need intimacy. If you want it, however, then that should be ok too. That is a major difference (for many) in people who are in relationships, and people who are just good friends. It’s not the sole defining characteristic, no, but a big one none-the-less.
…they just want a one particular friend with benefits
Why can’t it be both though? I think there’s nothing wrong with that, in my mind. I suppose a big consideration would be if you live together or not, or want to/plan to.
Another thing to consider is that SO relationships are typically seen as more static/permanent while good friends are considered more dynamic/fleeting.
In my experience, relationships (all relationships) are more dynamic than static. Realities of our mortality.

I definitely recognize some of the mods, and some of the key players in the communities that I follow. There’s good people here, and I believe it’s going to keep getting better.
I wasn’t paying attention to usernames as much when I first started. For whatever reason, I’ve started to pay attention to the names, as well as the instances. I like seeing where people are commenting from, and it even gives some insight into places or things I might be interested in as well.
Sometimes I’ll check out a person’s profile to see what things they’re commenting on. This feels kind of creepy a little bit. I don’t think anyone really cares though, so long as you’re not being abusive or something.
No. Honestly. I own one, but I haven’t been able to play it for reasons relating to my work and I’ve got a lot of buyer’s remorse about it too. That really sucks, but I really don’t feel like I have missed out on much as far as gaming goes.
My gaming laptop has been more than a viable alternative. I really wish I hadn’t been so impulsive with the purchase of my PS5. I genuinely feel like it wasn’t worth all the struggle it took to get it, and the financial loss/burden/degradation that it caused.
I’ve been considering selling it, for some time now, but I’m having trouble committing…
I’d love to hear your stories/advice, for any of you in a similar situation.
As someone who always thought about getting into gaming as a career, i’m so glad i didn’t… it’s a shame that game developers are having to suffer through such a toxic industry, and that there aren’t more protections in place for these people that create the amazing experiences that we all love so much.
I hope that they are able to find new and better places of employment.
You might be thinking how could this bullpup pan-fed automatic pistol possibly be worse. It is also a blow forward design. Meaning the barrel physically moves forward to operate the gun each shot. This significantly increases recoil, and in theory decreases accuracy....
I think that part of the reason why is that work has (many of) us so beat down anyway. I imagine there’s probably a certain amount of time where that tendency will dissipate and you’ll want to be productive again.
I’ve got a cheap black and decker one that I’d like to replace (eventually). It works fine, but I’d rather have something with a smaller physical footprint and better quality.

How does a SO feel different from a very good friend?

Those seem incompatible to me....
