2023.06.10 19:03 Fossil-Forest Could this Nen Ability I've come up with work? If not, how to improve
So, my idea for this Nen Ability, was inspired partially by the current HxH Succession Contest Arc, in which the 14 princes of the Kakin Empire fight to the death in a contest to decide the next heir to the Kakin throne. What inspired me was the Seed Urn, a Conjured Pot, which had existed for what would presumably be a long time, in order for the Kakin Empire to rise from a lower status to the empire it was currently. Just briefly remind people how the Seed Urn works, To prove one's inheritance to the urn, the host (in this case, one of the 14 Princes) focuses their desire for the crown and offers a drop of their blood to the urn, then puts their hand in its mouth-like opening. At this point, a purple smoke fumes from the urn with a tiny female sprite dressed in Kakin traditional clothing holding a small egg, which she inserts into the host's mouth. The princes will thus be granted a Guardian Spirit Beast when the egg hatches. This beast, although it can't be seen or controlled by the princes, defends the princes in different ways, feeding on their host's Nen to maintain themselves, and possess its own Nen abilities that may different from the user's Nen Type, but are based on the personality and nature of the user.
Since I'd imagine this Urn was created from a Nen Ability, probably from one of the first royals of the Kakin Empire, then I figured there could be similar abilities like it. What if there were post-mortem conjured Nen items that were akin to artifacts in the modern times of HxH? Artifacts that could have incredible powers as a result of them being Post-Mortem Nen creations?
So I came up with an idea for a similar Nen Ability, known as "Familial Imp Shrine". Just a warning, it's very detailed and could be confusing, but I explained as best I could. A Cultist Nen User from long ago had a specialization ability that allowed him to summon a shrine with incredible properties. He was backstabbed and killed by his own members of the religion he had founded, but even after his death, the Shrine remained, possible out of an unyielding desire for his beliefs to live on after his end. The Shrine was lost to time, but was eventually uncovered in a ruin by the Hunter Association, where one of my characters ultimately finds the Shrine within his possession.
After researching the Shrine via the Hunters' Tavern, he finds old writings from the Cultist's religion, and through what he learns, activates the conditions for the Familial Imp Shrine.
The Shrine, which resembles a mini Pagoda, is about 7 feet long and 7 feet wide, with a floor, and thin pillars connecting the floor and the Pagoda-style roof. Inside the shrine is a bronze statue, of a demon with four faces, in a meditation pose. The left hand of the statue holds a knife, and the right hand holds a cup. On the lap of the statue sits seven individually colored incense holders with incense in them, always lit. In his research of the shrine, my character found seven different prayers associated with the shrine, each seven lines long, and each corresponding with one of the seven deadly sins.
The way Familial Imp Shrine works, was if a person kneeled at the shrine, and prayed while perfectly reciting one of the seven prayers, then made an "offering" by cutting their finger on the blade, and letting blood drip from their finger into the cup, suddenly, the shrine would start glowing with Nen, and that Nen would enter the one who completed those prerequisites. Suddenly, one of the incense holders would vanish, and the person would then gain a Nen ability, starting with them being able to summon the incense holder that vanished when they made the offering.
Each Prayer mentioned is tied to a Sin, each Sin is tied to a specific incense, and each incense is tied to one of seven abilities the shrine will grant to seven different people who complete certain conditions at the shrine. If the person who does this isn't a Nen User at the start, they are baptized from when the Shrine's Nen floods into their body, and unlock the ability to use Nen, and through training, they will come to be able to use the ability associated with the incense prayer they read out, even though they didn't create the ability themselves. If the person is a Nen User, they will simply gain another Nen Ability, but won't immediately understand it.
Let me give an example: A guy named John goes to the shrine, and recites the prayer relating to the sin of Greed perfectly. He subsequently cuts his index finger on the knife of the demon statue, and drops blood from the injury into the cup of the demon statue. The shrine glows with Nen, which enters John, who is a Nen User, and one of the incense holders vanishes off of the shrine. In addition to his own Nen ability, John finds himself accidentally summoning this Incense Holder. But here's where the true power of the Incense Holder comes into play.
Each of the Incense Holders has an Incense stick in them, which is always lit. Upon being able to intentionally summon the Incense holders, smoke will rise from the stick, and summon a different Demon/Genie-like Nen Beast. These Nen Beasts are all a part of the same Family of Nen Beasts, called "Imps", hence the Shrine being called the "Familial Imp Shrine". Each Nen Beast summoned grants its own services to the summoner in the form of its own unique Nen ability, but each service has its own costs. Here's another example, and very brief summary of one of the powers:
John can now summon the Greed Incense Holder, and subsequently, the Imp Nen Beast associated with Greed, called "The Trader", who can conjure new items for John every day, but he can only buy them with physical objects that hold personal value to him, the costs varying on the item he's buying from the Nen Beast.
Some other examples of costs are from the Sloth Incense, which summons an Imp Nen beast who manages an artificially-created Nen Space that is similar to a hotel, but you have to pay the Imp, also known as the Hotelier, additional Aura to access a room. Each Nen Beast offers a service, with a cost.
You might be wondering however, what could stop a person from praying to the shrine multiple times, to allow that person to obtain multiple incenses? When a person prays and makes a blood sacrifice a second time after already doing so, the shrine kills them, and the incense ability they possessed is returned to the shrine, which mentions an important point. Anyone who dies with one of the incense abilities, that incense is returned to the shrine for someone else to obtain.
But lastly, there is one other result of praying to the shrine, and receiving an ability, that I have yet to mention. No matter who prays to the Shrine, if they have any other Nen Affinity besides Specialization, their affinity is forcibly changed to Specialization to fit the Ability they have inherited, which, although the Nen Beast may use conjuration or Transmutation, since the Beasts and the means of summoning them originate from a Specialization Ability, being the Familial Imp Shrine, the person's Nen type is forced to change to that. However, the person is then unable to create any new Nen Abilities using their new affinity towards Specialization. This is most catastrophic for established Nen Users, who might've been enhancers or emitters, as their established enhancement and emission techniques would be weaker and hard to maintain, thanks to the forced change in typing.
I will make separate posts from this one, detailing all of the individual incense Nen Beast abilities, but for now I hope people have an idea about how the incenses work.
But overall, the Conditions and Limitations of the Familial Imp Shrine are as follows:
The user has to read the proper seven line prayer perfectly, in front of the shrine while praying
The user has to give a drop of blood to the shrine statue
The user cannot to receive a second incense ability from the shrine, for otherwise they will die in the attempt of doing so
The user will forcibly become a specialist, and will be unable to create any new Nen abilities in that Nen category afterwards, and their potential in using abilities in other categories will change as a result
I apologize for the long read, or any grammar mistakes as this took a while to write, but I welcome anyone has any suggestions about reworking it, as I know this isn't a perfect ability, and is more of an idea. However, I just want everyone to know that I worked really hard on creating this ability. Let me know what needs to be fixed, or if there are flaws in it, as I really want to make it better, if it needs to be. Let me know if you like it otherwise!

 | Hello everyone! submitted by Kirosh2 to OnePiece [link] [comments] Good way to start the new void month right? Tl;dr: OnePiece will be participating in the reddit blackout on June 12th in protest of the upcoming API changes. What Will Happen :On Monday June 12th, at around 6 am UTC time, /OnePiece will be going private for around 48 hours. This means that all users will be unable to see any posts on /OnePiece at that time.However, our Discord Server will still be open for the community during that time. Why is /OnePiece going dark?Here is an ELI5 thread about this. But in short, Reddit is trying to limit the API access, which will lead to the death of several third-party apps used to browse Reddit in a different way from the official app.This will affect a lot of users across the website and /OnePiece. To give you an idea, around 60% of our unique visits come from either the IOS apps or Android Apps, which include the official app alongside the third party apps. The lack of support for the Third Parties apps will lead to a lot of our users not being able to come to the subreddit starting from July 1st. And this is why we are joining this protest. View Poll |
2023.06.10 19:02 imdumb__123 I fell in love and we don’t even talk
Ok, in my class there is a seriously pretty boy and I can't handle this anymore, I have to tell someone. The last time I told my friend that I liked someone but I wasn't in love with them, she told me that it was okay because being in love is a very strong word. THE PROBLEM IS THAT NOW I REALLY FELL IN LOVE. It's not like I'm delusional either. He looks at me a lot in class and his friends tease him with me, I really don't know how I can like someone so much and it makes me ashamed because every time I talk to him for a small favor, he gets nervous and I try to talk to him but he just does not collaborate. He is ambiverted but with me he is always shy. I don't know what to do anymore so we can have a normal conversation. I even follow him on instagram, he follows back all the people who follow him EXCEPT me.
help me 😭 (i’m using a translator, idk ab any mistakes)

2023.06.10 19:02 y-o-d-a ABS prebuilt overheats (CPU) after light usage
I purchased this pre-built around a year and a half ago: all specs here
The CPU overheats after about 10-20 minutes if I play any demanding game, and I get high temps even just browsing the internet or playing less demanding games. The temps reach about 100C, throttling turns on making my PC unusable, and then it shuts down.
Things I've tried / observations: This was not an issue when I first purchased the PC, and it started happening a few months ago. The first thing I tried was re-applying thermal paste, which seemed to have no effect. I then turned off overclocking (though I will admit the ASUS BIOS screen made this very confusing so perhaps I missed some settings). This helped significantly for around two months but now I'm back to the same behaviour.
The airflow setup seems reasonable to me, the fans are setup to pull from the front and exhaust through the top+back. I've confirmed all fans are working, and via the BIOS I set them to run at the full speed setting.
From what I can tell the AIO cooler (AIO 240 cpu cooler thermaltake) seems to be "working" in the sense that the RPM for the pump is where it should be, and I can feel the liquid moving through to the radiator.
My assumption is that the AIO cooler is no longer working, but I'm not sure how to confirm that exactly beyond the simple fact that the CPU is overheating... Does anyone have a recommended cooler that would work for my prebuilt that I could buy and see if that fixes my issue? The link above contains all the specs including my case. I'm not picky beyond simply wanting something that works and is easy to install, noise and cost aren't really a concern.
Is there anything else I should check before buying another cooler?

2023.06.10 19:02 WinnerConsistent1259 26M, [friendship] Looking for a connection
So I usually never reach out like this but I've been feeling pretty lonely lately so why not give it a try? So the basics are: I'm a straight guy, 26 years of age from Europe . I work but also have a lot of free time. I'm looking for someone I can have a genuine connection with and talk often to. At first on here but I prefer Discord since it's more convenient for me. So here's a little more info about me:
What I like: Video games (GTA Online, Warframe, Genshin), Some anime (Death note being my favorite), Cycling, Open and genuine people, Deep thoughts and discussions
Music I listen to: Mostly rock/metal but I enjoy many other genres too
Specific traits about me: I consider myself a very deep and idealistic person. I'm pretty honest and you can always expect an honest answer from me to all your questions and inqueries about me/my life. I don't hide anything about myself and am an open book so don't be afraid to ask me anything. I'm pretty straightforward and I speak my mind. I like joking around and my humor can be harsh sometimes but I never mean bad with it. I can adapt well to different people and situations but it's very hard to change my views and beliefs. I'm agnostic but open to discuss any and all religions and beliefs.
What I'm looking for [IMPORTANT]: I would prefer if you do not message me if all you're looking for is to kill boredom or have a quick chat. I'm looking for something serious and long-term and I am honestly tired of wasting time on people who do not want anything to commit to or form a genuine connection. I reply relatively fast and would like the same in return except, of course, when we are busy with stuff. I wouldn't ignore you and I don't want to be ignored. I'd also prefer people who are not scared to show what they look like relatively soon after we start talking. I think it's an important part of actually getting to know someone.
So that's about it. If you want to know anything more just send me a message.

2023.06.10 19:01 ZHODY ZHODY's Viet HeartGold Ground Reverse-Monolocke, Part 1: Not as solo as expected
Part 0: Rules and expectations
Getting Eggy I decided to try out the modern version of Trainer Charms purely so I could use the Pokemon Smile icons. They’re so adorable! Rided/Cyndaquil is one of my favorite Starters, but since they don’t have a second typing they don’t stand out much.
After getting Pokeballs from HIBI/Ethan it was time to start the run! Both New Bark and Cherrygrove have encounters I can unlock with Surf or either Rod, so with that in mind I earn my first three tokens from Rt. 29, 30, and 31. Luckily, both Rt. 46 and Dark Cave had Geodude, getting me Sicib and Bicis.
For some reason my Emulator doesn’t show the circle of light around my character, so I couldn’t find the free Drug/Potion in Bicis’ home. But hey, Bicis was a girl, so maybe she’ll help with Whitney like I hoped? Neither of them had a nature that lowered their Att or Def, so I was pleased. However, when I checked their IVs I noticed one had 8 in Att and the other had... 31!? I didn’t expect the second coming of Kokum to come so soon, whoa! Her Def IV is way lower than Sicib’s, though, so it’s kind of a trade-off.
I can get two Pokemon in GX (Violet) City, though not from the water. The first is from the Bellsprout for Onix trade that will cost me $25,200 (But the Nature is... really bad), and the second comes from giving Primo a specific code that is based on your Trainer ID. After consulting Pokewiki’s Secret Code Generator I... quickly realized that the text I need to input to get my wanted Slugma egg (the only one I can get before Kanto) was translated. Miraculously, the Viet HG save file worked with the normal Japanese HG ROM, so I just played both at once and used the equivalent of Alphabet Mode to help me figure out where ボーイ +うた and やだ + かんそうはだ were. ...Though one of the words starts with Hiragana and the ‘Syllabary Mode’ uses Katakana, so I had to pull out my old Hiragana+Katakana book to figure out the Katakana equivalent.
In the end, the translation was Boy + Sing & Do Not Want + Crispy. Funnily enough, before I had pulled out the book and untranslated ROM I tried to figure it out on my own by using the original Viet Crystal method of translating the Japanese text Pokewiki gave me into Chinese, then English via Google Translate and the fourth was translated to be Skin Care. I had guessed Crispy because I thought of crispy chicken skin earlier, so I’m glad I had guessed one of them correctly the first time!
I still had to check if I managed to get the Slugma egg, though... and Pkhex said it was a Slugma, YES! Well actually, when it hatched I realized the game wasn’t suddenly calling A SHI/Primo Mageh when he handed over the egg, it was calling it a Mageh/Slugma egg. So yeah, that’s her name. I had one more encounter available before Elder Li, though. The Sprout Tower he’s in just holds a fourth token, so I headed south to Rt. 32 to catch Mali/Mareep before beating up some monks.
VS Elder Li At first I was just going to solo him with an Ember-equipped Rided, but at the end of the tower both Geodude were at lv. 7 from some switch grinding, so the team was them and the lv. 10 Rided. They won’t go out against his Bellsprout, but Hoothoot’s Hypnosis could make solo-ing annoying.
Rided’s Ember easily OHKO’d the first Bellsprout, but Elder Li threw out Hoothoot next. Rided was quickly put to sleep and she didn’t wake up after getting a Peck to the face, so I swapped to Bicis. She sadly got hit by a Growl, but two Tackles barely brought the bird to yellow HP while she dodged Hypnosis. Annoyed by how little she was doing, I swapped to Sicib... only for him to be put to sleep, augh!
So I swapped back to Bicis, who got hit with a Peck and another Growl before she could Tackle again. Two more Tackles barely brought Hoothoot to red HP before Hypnosis finally landed on her. Instead of making her power through the sleep, I decided to swap back to Rided to get ready for the second bellsprout, and... She woke up immediately, nice! Two more Embers destroyed the Hoothoot and second Bellsprout.
Yup, I’m glad I didn’t go through my usual ‘grind to lv. 10’ session at the beginning, because having more bodies to put to sleep was pretty dang helpful! Nobody lost more than 10HP thanks to that, too.
VS HEYADUO/Falkner After beating his minions everyone but Rided was okay to be in the lowest level slot (8), so I went to the grass to get Sicib to the highest level slot (13) and learn Rock Throw. ...Wait, what!? Yeah, It was gonna be Bicis, but I got confused and realized too late, ugh. Well, let’s hope his Rock Throw isn’t too weak.
Pidgey starts off with blinding Sicib with Sand, but Rock Throw lands regardless and takes it out. Pidgeotto doesn’t have Sand Attack, so he just used a weak Gust before getting knocked to low yellow thanks to another Rock Throw. One more weak Gust later and Sicib landed the killing blow/rock.
Well, Rock Throw is still Super Effective and gets STAB. Sand Attack was kind of worrying, but I’m glad all three Rock Throws landed regardless.

I had guessed Crispy because I thought of crispy chicken skin earlier, so I’m glad I had guessed one of them correctly the first time!
I still had to check if I managed to get the Slugma egg, though... and Pkhex said it was a Slugma, YES! Well actually, when it hatched I realized the game wasn’t suddenly calling A SHI/Primo Mageh when he handed over the egg, it was calling it a Mageh/Slugma egg. So yeah, that’s her name. I had one more encounter available before Elder Li, though. The Sprout Tower he’s in just holds a fourth token, so I headed south to Rt. 32 to catch Mali/Mareep before beating up some monks.
Rided’s Ember easily OHKO’d the first Bellsprout, but Elder Li threw out Hoothoot next. Rided was quickly put to sleep and she didn’t wake up after getting a Peck to the face, so I swapped to Bicis. She sadly got hit by a Growl, but two Tackles barely brought the bird to yellow HP while she dodged Hypnosis. Annoyed by how little she was doing, I swapped to Sicib... only for him to be put to sleep, augh!
So I swapped back to Bicis, who got hit with a Peck and another Growl before she could Tackle again. Two more Tackles barely brought Hoothoot to red HP before Hypnosis finally landed on her. Instead of making her power through the sleep, I decided to swap back to Rided to get ready for the second bellsprout, and... She woke up immediately, nice! Two more Embers destroyed the Hoothoot and second Bellsprout.
Yup, I’m glad I didn’t go through my usual ‘grind to lv. 10’ session at the beginning, because having more bodies to put to sleep was pretty dang helpful! Nobody lost more than 10HP thanks to that, too.
Pidgey starts off with blinding Sicib with Sand, but Rock Throw lands regardless and takes it out. Pidgeotto doesn’t have Sand Attack, so he just used a weak Gust before getting knocked to low yellow thanks to another Rock Throw. One more weak Gust later and Sicib landed the killing blow/rock.
Well, Rock Throw is still Super Effective and gets STAB. Sand Attack was kind of worrying, but I’m glad all three Rock Throws landed regardless.
Team:
- Sicib the Geodude♂ (14) - Sassy, Sturdy [Tackle / Rock Throw / Defense Curl / Mud Sport]
- Bicis the Geodude♀ (8) - Impish, Sturdy [Tackle / Defense Curl / Mud Sport / Rock Polish]
- Mageh the Slugma♀ (8) - Hardy, Flame Body [Smog / Ember / Yawn / ---]
- Mali the Mareep♂ (8) - Quirky, Static [Tackle / Growl / --- / ---]
- Rided the Cyndaquil♀ (11) - Brave, Blaze [Tackle / Ember / SmokeScreen / Leer]

We got combitickets and were planning on arriving on Wednesday night. Does anyone know until what time in the evening you are able to check in? (Traveling from the Netherlands after work/school, so coming earlier isn't an option for us).

2023.06.10 19:01 mlljf Happiness and PSA to newborn parents who are struggling
Gosh, I just need to share. I struggled so much emotionally at the beginning, and even more so because my baby was so wanted and planned. I really questioned whether I’d made a mistake. My boy is so opinionated, more than any other baby I’ve been around. He has GERD and some other GI issues that honestly made the first few months hell. He was not a bad sleeper, though he woke up every 2-3 hours until about 4-4.5 mos.
But WOW. Other parents I knew who had ‘difficult’ babies said 6 months was a turning point for them and I understand it. This boy is about to be 7 months and I am so, so in love with him. All of those opinions of his are going strong but what that means is that when he’s excited to say, be held up to and touch our paintings at home, he is screaming with joy. He reaches out to me when someone he doesn’t know well is holding him. He gets so happy when Daddy comes home from work. He loves watching the dog walk around. He just discovered if he kicks bath water enough it splashes his face and WOW that is the most exciting thing he’s seen. I love this little human so much. It got so much better and I’m just thrilled to be his mom and get to eventually see him walk, talk, figure out who he is. He still has alllll the GI issues and we are still fighting to get a call back from the GI but there’s not even a tiny part of me that regrets becoming a parent. I just needed to share- I’m often tired, but I’m so happy.

2023.06.10 19:01 RazzmatazzRough8168 How should I plan financially?
I am 23 and my wife is also 23. I currently work in insurance and have an A.A degree. My wife is planning to become an RN and currently works as a CNA. I make $26/hour and my wife makes $20/hour. We have alittle over 17k in our joint HYSA. Around 3k in our joint checkings and 2 personal checking accounts for eachother. I have around $800 in mine and she has around $200.(this is our own money to spend on whatever, no arguments) We put $200 per paycheck into these accounts. But I'm rethinking this amount for her because she doesn't make as much.
We do not have any loans or credit card debt only my wife's student debt around $10k. We are getting married in September (already married legally) a cheap wedding. I plan to put all expenses on a 0% apr credit card that I just got this month 06/2023 for 18 months no interest. Wedding will cost between $5-7k. We will pay this off before apr kicks in. I have a 401k with a 6% match. So I put 6% of my paycheck into it. I started my job 1 year ago and have $4,107.91 in a Vanguard Target RET 2065. I also have a fidelity account with an Individual Investmant account and Roth IRA. In Roth IRA total is $522.28 in DAL, FZROX, QQQ, SPAXX, and VOO. Not evenly. Idk what any of this is or means. In individual account I have 1 share of Ratheon at $103.81.
Our rent is 945 ATM in September its going up to $965. In the summer electic can go upto $70. Internet = $50, if I had to guess our credits card total around $3-500 every month? Including streaming and groceries and eating out. She came off of spring classes was working mabey 20 hours a week but started back up doing 40 hours. I do plan on going back to school this fall part time. I want to get her setup with 401k as well.but we need advice on this as I blindly put money in stocks I don't fully understand. How can we improve finances?

 | My 1996 Land Rover Defender has a nifty “inspection” hole the previous owner made… submitted by DicTaylorShip to AskMechanics [link] [comments] How should I properly deal with this? 1) stuff a plastic plug in it (what was there previously but it does not seal particularly well) 2) Take it to get it patch welded 3) Replace the bell housing entirely (no other damage) 4) Use an aluminum patch and JB weld to seal the hole |
2023.06.10 19:01 After-Objective-463 Intelligence and Race: A Discussion
This poll was posted earlier on this subreddit and judging from the results as of writing this post(33 yes, 24 no), there seems to be a significant portion of people on this subreddit who believe intelligence and race are associated.
Many people claim that IQ tests are culturally biased/dependent on the environment and that any differences between races measured on IQ tests is not genetic and not a true measure of "intelligence" in general. In other words, just because one race scores lower than another on IQ tests does not mean that the races differ in "intelligence". This argument is frequently used to discredit IQ tests as a measure of "intelligence".
Others however, especially many people on this sub judging from my poll, believe that race and intelligence are associated. In other words, there exists a tangible difference between the races in terms of intelligence, and IQ tests are a great way to measure this difference.
There are obviously more nuanced arguments that one can make, and I have only identified two responses out of many. What do you guys believe?

2023.06.10 19:01 cigarell0 Is it normal for your mother to know nothing about you?
Hey everyone,
I was wondering, how often do you see that your mother knows what you like? Or that she shows interest in knowing?
The thing is, I’m 24, and she has a 2 and 4 year old and a 15 year old to take care of now. But despite living with my mother, she knows nothing about me. She knows I can’t have coffee because of my medication but she keeps accidentally buying me drinks with coffee in it. She bought me shoes that weren’t in my size and weren’t even a style I like. I appreciate that she does these things at all, but I don’t think she ever tries to know my preferences. Or know what I like. She knows what she likes, and frames everything that way. She loves coffee and the shoes she bought were in her size and in a style she likes. I just feel like I’m expecting too much by hoping she would show some form of interest in me but it makes me sad that she never showed that interest. I can’t imagine having kids and not caring about what they like and dislike. I don’t really need advice for my relationship with my mom, I feel like that’s a done deal. I just wanted to know if I’m alone.
Has anyone really, truly, had a mom that knows their likes and dislikes? That has tried to know them for who they are?

2023.06.10 19:01 AutoModerator What are the benefits and side effects of Ashwagandha?
What is ashwagandha?
The ashwagandha plant is one of the most powerful herbs. Various parts of the ashwagandha plant are used for medicinal purposes, with ashwagandha extract mainly being used in supplements. Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, a natural agent that reportedly helps the body cope with stress. As a result, it’s believed to be effective at helping reduce levels of the stress hormone, cortisol. It may also therefore potentially help with anxiety and depression too.
What does ashwagandha do?
Reduces Stress and Anxiety
Ashwagandha is known to help reduce stress and anxiety. One way it does this is by reducing levels of cortisol, a hormone that is released in response to stress. Additionally, ashwagandha has been shown to improve mood and cognitive function, both of which can be negatively affected by stress.
Enhances Cognitive Function
Ashwagandha has also been shown to improve cognitive function. One study showed that it improved memory and reaction time in healthy adults. Another study found that it improved task performance in people with ADHD. Additionally, ashwagandha may help prevent age-related cognitive decline.
Boosts Energy Levels
Ashwagandha has been shown to boost energy levels. One study showed that it increased stamina and reduced fatigue in people with chronic fatigue syndrome. Additionally, ashwagandha may help improve exercise performance.
Additionally, ashwagandha may also help improve sleep quality and reduce inflammation. These effects can all contribute to enhanced energy levels.
Regulates Blood Sugar Levels
Ashwagandha has been shown to help regulate blood sugar levels. One study showed that it improved insulin sensitivity in people with type II diabetes. Additionally, ashwagandha may help reduce fasting blood sugar levels and improve symptoms of diabetes.
Additionally, ashwagandha may also help lower cholesterol levels and protect against heart disease. These effects can also contribute to improved blood sugar control.
Lowers Blood Pressure
Ashwagandha has been shown to help lower blood pressure. One study showed that it improved blood pressure in people with hypertension. Additionally, ashwagandha may help reduce stress and anxiety, both of which can contribute to high blood pressure.
Is ashwagandha safe?
Ashwagandha is generally considered safe for most people. However, it can cause side effects such as stomach upset, diarrhea, and vomiting in some people. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, it's best to avoid ashwagandha.
What happens when you take ashwagandha daily?
As a sleep aid, ashwagandha may help people get to sleep faster and stay asleep for longer. It is also used to promote male potency. Ashwagandha has a variety of health benefits, including reduced blood sugar levels, inflammation, mood, memory, stress and anxiety relief, as well as an increase in muscle strength and fertility. Depending on your requirements, dosages vary from 250 to 500 mg per day for at least one month.
When it comes to stress relief, ashwagandha may be as effective as some prescription medications. A 2010 study found that the herb was just as effective as lorazepam (Ativan) in reducing stress and anxiety. click the link below to learn more about abhwagandha, and its real health benefits.

2023.06.10 19:00 WinnerConsistent1259 26M, Looking for a connection
So I usually never reach out like this but I've been feeling pretty lonely lately so why not give it a try? So the basics are: I'm a straight guy, 26 years of age from Europe . I work but also have a lot of free time. I'm looking for someone I can have a genuine connection with and talk often to. At first on here but I prefer Discord since it's more convenient for me. So here's a little more info about me:
What I like: Video games (GTA Online, Warframe, Genshin), Some anime (Death note being my favorite), Cycling, Open and genuine people, Deep thoughts and discussions
Music I listen to: Mostly rock/metal but I enjoy many other genres too
Specific traits about me: I consider myself a very deep and idealistic person. I'm pretty honest and you can always expect an honest answer from me to all your questions and inqueries about me/my life. I don't hide anything about myself and am an open book so don't be afraid to ask me anything. I'm pretty straightforward and I speak my mind. I like joking around and my humor can be harsh sometimes but I never mean bad with it. I can adapt well to different people and situations but it's very hard to change my views and beliefs. I'm agnostic but open to discuss any and all religions and beliefs.
What I'm looking for [IMPORTANT]: I would prefer if you do not message me if all you're looking for is to kill boredom or have a quick chat. I'm looking for something serious and long-term and I am honestly tired of wasting time on people who do not want anything to commit to or form a genuine connection. I reply relatively fast and would like the same in return except, of course, when we are busy with stuff. I wouldn't ignore you and I don't want to be ignored. I'd also prefer people who are not scared to show what they look like relatively soon after we start talking. I think it's an important part of actually getting to know someone.
So that's about it. If you want to know anything more just send me a message.

2023.06.10 19:00 Relative_Director_31 23 [F4M] PA/ Anywhere - Just want to hold hands
Posted a few days ago but didn’t really get any replies sadly so posting again? (Diff pics of me this time)
Hi! I’m Lena, from Philadelphia. I work with kids on a daily basis, mostly teaching them STEM Related stuff. I’m also a part time student studying comp sci. I honestly don’t have too many interesting hobbies, since I’ve spent a while being a bit depressed for a year or so. I love to play games and read, I love writing. And I absolutely love movies. I watch a lot of true crime, science fiction, and fantasy films. I have an “alt” look I guess but nothing too crazy, and also have been losing weight and lost 50 or so lbs recently. (I was wildly fatphobic unintentionally and hated myself) I’m currently trying to teach myself to ride a bike and get outside more since I’ve been a hermit crab recently.
But enough about me, what about you? You’re a funny person, at least in the stupid kind of way (I’m obviously gen Z born 1999). You love sports but weird ones like soccer or nhl (I like both). And you like to talk on the phone rather than text, as texting seems so out of touch with people. OH And you love roller coasters (a must)
I know it sounds like I’m describing me in a man. But I’m looking for a bestfriend, too. Someone who I could never get bored with and would never get bored of me.
Dumb post ik. I’m also a highly affectionate person and would love to just stay inside and cuddle, or talk after work on the phone while I’m on the subway bc (I can’t drive). I also love going for long walks, and trails are cool when there’s no bears (im so scared of bears)
IMPORTANT
— Absolutely please nobody older than 28. I mean please. It’ll just clutter my inbox.
— Lastly, nobody unwilling to send photos to me AT FIRST MSG. To make sure there’s a mutual attraction.
I know this sounds like a lot to some but I’ve posted before and my inbox was flooded, I’ve talked to people for weeks before knowing what they’ve looked like.
Thanks for reading this far!
Anyways here’s me

2023.06.10 19:00 KnightroUCF r/Forensics is going dark on June 12th
This subreddit will be joining in on the June 12th-14th protest of Reddit's API changes that will essentially kill all 3rd party Reddit apps.
On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader.
Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface .
This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free.
Furthermore, in the days since the announced policy change, it has come to light that Reddit has been less than transparent and ethical in their handling of this change. As a community reliant on evidence, it's hard for us to give Reddit the benefit of the doubt given the facts that have been presented.
At Forensics, we are a community of forensic science professionals who are passionate about what we do, and pride ourselves on providing access to actual forensic knowledge to the masses when questions arise. But key values of our community are transparency and ethics. Without transparency and ethics, no honest discourse can be trusted to happen.
As such, our moderation team has decided that on June 12th, forensics will be joining the over 3,500 other subreddits that will be going dark in protest of these changes. While some subreddits have announced their return dates, forensics will not be doing so. It may be 48 hours, it may be longer. While we are a small community, we believe that it is our responsibility to participate in protesting these changes.
The two-day blackout isn't the goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action.
* Spread the word. Rabble-rouse on related subreddits. Meme it up, make it spicy. Bitch about it to your cat. Suggest anyone you know who moderates a subreddit join the coordinated mod effort at /ModCoord.
* Boycott and spread the word...to Reddit's competition! Stay off Reddit entirely on June 12th through the 13th- instead, take to your favorite non-Reddit platform of choice and make some noise in support!
* Don't be a jerk. As upsetting this may be, threats, profanity and vandalism will be worse than useless in getting people on our side. Please make every effort to be as restrained, polite, reasonable and law-abiding as possible.
* Make a sticky post showing your support, [A template has been created here](https://www.reddit.com/ProCSS/wiki/api\_protest\_template) you can use or modify to your liking, and be sure to crosspost it to /ModCoord.

What's going on?
A recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app permanently inaccessible to users.On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader.
Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface .
This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free.
How does it affect forensics?
Reddit is a business and needs to be sustainable. No one disputes that. But instead of providing reasonable pricing, reasonable timelines, or reasonable communication with these third-party applications that have made Reddit accessible (and arguably more enjoyable) to the masses for years, Reddit has decided to price them out of existence entirely.Furthermore, in the days since the announced policy change, it has come to light that Reddit has been less than transparent and ethical in their handling of this change. As a community reliant on evidence, it's hard for us to give Reddit the benefit of the doubt given the facts that have been presented.
At Forensics, we are a community of forensic science professionals who are passionate about what we do, and pride ourselves on providing access to actual forensic knowledge to the masses when questions arise.

While some subreddits have announced their return dates, forensics will not be doing so. It may be 48 hours, it may be longer. While we are a small community, we believe that it is our responsibility to participate in protesting these changes.
What's the plan?
On June 12th, [many subreddits](https://old.reddit.com/ModCoord/comments/1401qw5/incomplete\_and\_growing\_list\_of\_participating/) will be going dark to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed, since many moderators aren't able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app. This isn't something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love.The two-day blackout isn't the goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action.
What can you do as a user?
* Complain. Message the mods of /reddit.com, who are the admins of the site: message reddit: submit a support request: comment in relevant threads on /reddit, such as [this one](https://www.reddit.com/reddit/comments/12qwagm/an\_update\_regarding\_reddits\_api/), leave a negative review on their official iOS or Android app- and sign your username in support to [this post.](https://www.reddit.com/Save3rdPartyApps/comments/13yh0jf/dont\_let\_reddit\_kill\_3rd\_party\_apps/)* Spread the word.

2023.06.10 19:00 phroggies70 My Cdrama Diary (with apologies for length)
1.1.23 Checked MDL this morning. Very Big Name Drama started this morning and has dropped 6 episodes already! AAAAAH! I’ve been waiting on this for over a year! So excited. Off to renew my Tencent subscription…
1.2.23 I’m so invested in Very Big Name Drama!! The leads are perfect for each other! The chemistry is amazing! The mystery surrounding the FL’s parentage and possible connections to the ML’s childhood has me on the edge of my seat! I can hardly think about anything else.
1.3.23 Got an episode or two behind on Very Big Name Drama. Got distracted by Short Republican Era Drama With Dubious Moral Standards. Stayed up half the night binging even though I don’t really respect it, nor myself for watching it. I can barely think about anything else.
1.4.23 Tried to get back into Very Big Name Drama. Honestly, it’s starting to drag. The push and pull between the leads is getting pretty tiresome and I’m watching all the stuff about the second couple on 3x speed.
1.5.23. Oooh, New Xianxia just dropped. I have a bad track record with finishing these, but this time I’m really intrigued—it’s got this actor I really like, the artwork is cool, and every other post on the Reddit sub is about it. I’ll just take a look. Off to renew my Iqiyi membership.. . .
1.6.23 Stayed up half the night binging New Xianxia. I’m so invested in this couple! The tension is killing me! Can’t think about anything else. But no new episodes for two days, so I might as well finish Short Republican Drama with Dubious Moral Standards. I don’t know why I’m watching this.
1.7.23 Finished Short Republican Drama with Dubious Moral Standards. Potentially happy ending somehow miraculously averted at the last minute by an incomprehensible bloodbath, followed by a 1 minute epilogue that shows the leads having some ambiguous encounter 5 years later. I think this is what the Chinese call “philosophical.”
1.8.23 Saw a spoiler today on Reddit about New Xianxia. It has completely taken away any desire whatsoever for me to watch it. Tried to get back into Very Big Name Drama and I just can’t.
1.9.23 Oooh, Very Serious Drama with Real Actors and Meaningful Themes has just dropped! Off to renew my Youku membership. . .
1.10.23 Am inexplicably bored with Very Serious Drama with Real Actors and Meaningful Themes. Fortunately, Cute 16 Episode Rom-Com just dropped. Yay! Off to renew my Mango subscription. . .
1.11.23 Cute 16 Episode Rom-Com is just so darn cute! I love the chemistry between the leads and the way they keep playing around with familiar tropes! Unfortunately, it’s on Mango so I have no idea what’s going on.
1.12.23 Have given up on Mango subs and am trying to watch Cute 16 Episode Rom-Com in the raws. For something so predictable, I’m having to look up a ton of words. But next time there’s a drama about the car design industry, I’m going to be so ready. . .
1.13.23 Stayed up half the night watching 2 episodes of Cute 16 Episode Rom-Com. At some point I realized I had been watching for about 15 minutes with absolutely no comprehension whatsoever. I may have actually been dreaming part of it.
1.14.23 Oh, thank goodness. Viki is finally subbing Cute 16 Episode Rom-Com! Off to renew my Viki subscription. . .
1.15.23 Could Viki take any longer with these dang subs? In the meantime I think I’ll restart Really Promising Drama that I Put on the Back Burner Last Year.
1.16.23 Why did I ever drop Really Promising Drama that I Put on the Back Burner Last Year? It’s so good! I can’t think about anything else.
1.17.23 Really Promising Drama is good, but it’s sooo slow. Cdramas have made so much progress in the past year. But I should really finish it because I’m only about two episodes from the end. Meanwhile, I’m absolutely loving Cute 16 Episode Rom-Com. I mean, the one episode per day Viki is releasing.
1.18.23 Twenty minutes away from the end of Really Promising Drama and I just can’t go on. Loving Cute 16 Episode Rom-Com but the wait is killing me. Maybe I’ll go back and take another look at New Xianxia.
1.19.23 Finished Cute 16 Episode Rom-Com. So good! Can’t seem to get back into New Xianxia. Have checked the new drama listings on MDL about 5 times today and the only Cdramas they have are those Douyin cosplayer 2 minute ones.
1.20.23 There’s absolutely nothing to watch. Maybe I need a new hobby. I was spending too much time online anyway.
1.21.23 Another day with nothing new to watch. Actually had a real phone conversation with my sister! Forgot how funny she is. Finally got the vacuuming done and read a book. Is this what it’s like to have your life back?
1.22.23 Checked the MDL page this morning and AAAAAAHHH! Another Very Big Drama has dropped. I’ve been waiting on this for months! Off to renew my Tencent subscription. . .

2023.06.10 19:00 koalillo Getting the most of my USB-C display
I have a nice Dell S2722DZ, with built-in speakers, micro, and webcam. It has USB-C input (with PD), plus it has a two-port USB hub.
I am using it with a recent ThinkPad with USB-C is awesome- plug a single cable and the laptop charges, uses the display, plus the webcam and USB devices.
I have two older computers; a ThinkPad with HDMI/miniDP, and a desktop with HDMI/DP.
I currently use the desktop via the HDMI input of the monitor. Of course, that means the webcam and USB are not available.
I'd like a solution to connect the ThinkPad and desktop with full USB use.
What are the magic keywords I need to plug into Amazon?
I bought a cable for a Huion display with a pen. It has USB-C to connect to the display, and another end with HDMI + 2xUSB to connect to a computer. I envision a cable like this would be ideal for my purposes, but unfortunately, it doesn't work with the Dell display.
I think I'm looking for something like this:
I have been pointed to https://espres.so/products/hdmi and https://dancharblog.wordpress.com/2020/07/20/add-usb-c-with-dp-alt-mode-to-your-desktop-pc/ , but those are hard to get in my neck of the woods.
