2025.01.22 13:01 Eileen_Ulickit Thanks for the good time
Just wanted to say thank you to all the extra-safe cyclists that ride around at the crack of dawn with those 1,000,000,000 lumens blinking headlights. They do a fantastic job of triggering my epilepsy. Nothing feels better than to feel the warmth of the Superman laser beam penetrating the back of my skull when the pupils are nicely dilated. Thank goodness for dictation for allowing me to post this since I won’t be able to see anything for the next four days. Happy Cycling!

2025.01.22 13:01 willworkjewelry The Ultimate Guide To Curved Wedding Bands
The curved wedding band, also commonly referred to as a contour, fitted, or curved wedding band, was exclusively designed for engagement rings other than the traditional shapes. Because of its curving or contoured shape, it perfectly complements your ring's unique shape, fitting absolutely perfectly and thus making both rings inseparable in appearance when worn together. These curved wedding bands come in different styles, metals, and designs; hence, they offer varieties where a couple can find an ideal match for their engagement ring. These bands are highly in demand due to the added aesthetic appeal and comfort they provide to a bridal set. Learn more about curved wedding bands below. What Are Curved Wedding Bands? The design of a curved wedding band allows it to fit comfortably against an engagement ring that has raised settings or even protruding center stones. Since the design is contoured, it goes behind the engagement ring, providing for smooth-worn elegance in both rings together. These wedding bands are often custom-fit to the shape and contour of an engagement ring. This can be achieved either by having a custom design to fit an existing ring or by selecting pre-designed curved bands that fit nicely with a variety of different engagement ring styles. These curvaceous wedding bands are made of precious metals: white gold, yellow or rose gold, and even platinum, or a combination of these metals. Many of them feature diamonds or gemstones, be it just as accenting or as a continuous line of sparkle down the band, adding to the visual effect. Large curves in the wedding bands present several advantages, mainly eliminating gaps from the engagement ring and therefore providing a balanced and harmonious design to enhance the bride's overall beauty. To make a proper match, it requires considering the design of an engagement ring in choosing the curved wedding band. The most fitting width and style would be tried and tested until finding the best match that can work for both comfort and aesthetics. This curved wedding band gives the look seamlessly, sophisticated, and polished, adding a lot more classiness to any ring set both functionally and stylishly. Types of Wedding Band Designs Types of Wedding Band Designs When selecting a wedding band, the variety of designs available offers something for every taste.

These intricate details lend a distinctive and romantic flair to the ring's overall look. 5.Two-Tone Band A two-toned wedding band blends two different metals, such as white gold and rose gold, creating a striking contrast and a unique design. This combination adds visual appeal and versatility, making it a great choice for a personalized ring stack. 6.Braided Band The braided wedding band features intertwined metal strands, forming a textured and intricate design. This style can range from simple to more elaborate, offering versatility to suit individual tastes. 7.Textured Wedding band A hammered or textured wedding band offers a rustic and one-of-a-kind appeal. The metal is intentionally hammered to create a unique pattern or finish, adding character and depth to the design. The shapes of things to come Curved wedding bands boast a rich history that blends effortlessly with contemporary designs and uses. Their ability to enhance the overall look of the bridal set while providing a comfortable fit has made them a popular choice. Whether it's a subtle curve or a bold chevron design, there is a curved wedding band to complement any engagement ring. As unconventional proposal styles continue to rise in popularity, the shapes and silhouettes of curved bands are likely to evolve even further, offering even more exciting options in the future.

2025.01.22 13:01 obelixx99 Taking paycut for better WLB
I'm working in one of the most known big techs, which is considered maybe a tier below Google. Pay is decent, however WLB is quite bad. Things like onccalls, last minute requirement changes, change in management due to re-org, random layoff announcement hugely affect my mental health. I'm on medication which is a huge help. But on average my mental health is pretty much messed up. Need to take anti depressant and anti anxiety.
Now I've got an option to join a non-tech company, which is pretty much super giant in their domain. I talked to some folks, it seems like they have decent WLB and pretty much 0 layoffs. Also they use pretty outdated tech stack, so later switch can be an issue.
My main concern is, the salary they are offering is quite low compared to my current paycheck. Is it worth considering paycut for my mental health? I think I can get off meds if I go ahead with this job. What should I do?
Any insights will be helpful.

2025.01.22 13:01 Impressive-Expert603 I can’t figure out what this is
I saw a clip from threads where a boy was summoned into a magic circle and he was kinda hyped saying something like oh my gosh did I just get summoned to another world for real? And he was holding some food when he appeared in the summoning circle. He was then kicked out of the castle and some random girl found him and told him that summoning was illegal in that world so it’s crazy the king did that. Then she brings him to a church and has him do something that reveals what kind of power he has and that’s where the video cut.
WHAT IS THIS? It was dubbed which def narrows down the search at least a little.

2025.01.22 13:01 AzyrenTheKnight The Power of the Darkside
The darkside is the darling of the downtrodden and the destitute. With great promise of power and victory, those who have little are at risk of temptation. So too are those filled with ambition and pressure to succeed. It presents as a resource – so natural and welcoming.
On its own, the darkside is just another part of existence. Where there is light, there is also darkness. Where there is life, there is also death. But also, where there is rot and decay, there is rebirth. In balance, the light and the dark complement each other – working in harmony to maintain the natural order.
The ancient Je’daii – precursors to the Jedi – referred to this duality of nature as the Ashla and Bogan; named after the two moons of Je’daii home planet Tython. Ashla, always bright and shining. Bogan, always cast in shadow. At the core of Tython, too, it was said there was Ashla and Bogan. Just as there is within each person – the dark and the light.
Bogan is not evil. We might see Bogan in a lion’s bloodthirsty hunt for their dinner. We might see it in sickness and death; rot and decay. We might even see it in supernovae millions of lightyears away. These are not evil things – they are a part of the natural order. A predatory animal evolved to hunt and eat meat is not an evil creature. And that which lives must some day expire. These are just parts of life. There is no malice. There is only the Bogan.
Where trouble begins is imbalance. When there is too much Bogan and the scales start to tip. This was the goal of the Sith of the fiction. In the book Darth Plagueis by James Luceno, the titular character and his apprentice Sidious conspire to turn the tables.
Plagueis says to Sidious, “As we attempt to wrest the powers of life and death from the Force, as we seek to tip the balance, the Force resists our efforts.“
In tipping the balance, the foremost power is not the light-side – as it is meant to be – but it becomes the darkside. Death and chaos reign over life and harmony. The Sith now can tap into power exceeding what normal Force users can accomplish. They gorge themselves on this influx of darkside essence, hoarding enormous power in just two beings.
Much as I wish it was, this is not merely fiction. The powers that be can – and do – manipulate the state of the world in order to cause widespread chaos and disharmony. And the world in this state becomes all too easy for them to dominate – leading to obscene power and wealth redistribution into the hands of an elite few.
For the few to stand supreme, the masses must be made to struggle and suffer. For some to be billionaires, others must be made poor. For some to be tyrants and dictators, others must be made powerless. Even so, the billionaire dream sounds so nice when stuck in hard times. When you’re the one made to struggle and suffer, the life of elites looks like heaven.
The darkside flows easily. It’s “quick to join you in a fight”, says Yoda. And that’s true of real life. How easy is it to give into anger? To be snippy or shout at someone when you’re stressed or upset? How much easier is it to destroy than to build? The light-side takes effort. The light-side takes discipline, wisdom, and restraint. It does not come easily. It’s not an overwhelming surge of energy and power like the darkside is. It’s subtler. Quieter. And it flows not for masters, but for servants. To follow the light, you must be humble and virtuous. There is no such requirement for users of the dark.
“If only you knew the power of the darkside!” Vader proclaims to Luke.
On one hand, this is a statement of grandeur. The dark side is potent. It’s a powerful weapon in the hands of those who wish to dominate and destroy. It feels like a surge of power, flowing fast and explosively. But, on the other hand, this is also a statement of lost hope. The darkside has the power to twist good people into monsters. It has the power to take its users over and lead them down a path of pain, suffering, and misery. The darkside is intoxicating and addictive. It presents as an easy solution and becomes a parasitic burden.
Imagine you’ve been feeling stressed and overwhelmed. You know a few days of gentle rest, meditation, and self-care will restore you. But you have access to a potent drug that will give you relief in mere minutes. At first, this seems like an easy choice. Take the drug for instant relief instead of having to take days of slow and steady rest. So, you take the pill. And it works. Within no time, you’re feeling relief. You’re glad.
Six hours later, it wears off. You don’t just feel bad again, you feel worse than before. Now it will take longer than just a few days to fix you up with the slow and steady method. So you look at the drug again. It worked last time – so, you take it again.
As time goes on, it helps less and less. You notice you don’t behave differently on the drug than you do without it. You start to crave it any time you feel a bit down or worn out. You’ve grown dependent. When you try to abstain, you feel worse than you’ve felt in your entire life. Nothing feels right. You don’t feel yourself. You start taking the drug to feel normal – or something close to normal. You’re not sure what normal feels like anymore. And on and on, you spiral down.
This is why Yoda says, “Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Consume you, it will”. He’s not wrong. Have there been people in the lore who turned back to the light? Yes – Anakin being the most notable example. But, while Anakin dies soon after his redemption, the rest who turn back find themselves forever tempted. They know what it feels like. They know the power it can give them. When they’re down and out and need something to survive or overcome hardship, they’re more likely to give in and turn back than those who have never gone down such a path.
For most, however, there is no going back. The darkside does, indeed, consume them. If it does not kill them in body, then it kills them in mind and in spirit. They lose who they were and become something else. A being of darkness, devoid of the light.
The true power of the darkside is not the power of its wielder, but its power over them. Darth Vader doubts he can turn back. “It’s too late for me, son,” he tells Luke. Because the darkside has nearly consumed him. Little of Anakin is left to be redeemed. And perhaps for some – like Sidious – redemption is not possible.
It’s not worth it to turn from the light. It’s like making a deal with the devil. Anakin thinks he can save Padme by embracing the darkness – but, it’s his own turn to darkness which kills her. And, by then, it’s too late. He’s ensnared. He has nothing left to go back to. He is consumed and his life is made forfeit, in service of evil.
In real life, a turn to the darkside is the stripping away of one’s morality in the relentless search for wealth, power, and domination. We see elites with obscene wealth, fame, and prestige. They don’t arrive to these powers without sacrifice. The selling of one’s soul – a loss of morality and integrity. The consumption of one’s fullness of life – reduced to chase power and wealth and never be satisfied. And lastly – perhaps most importantly – the sacrifice of others. Anyone and anything. Family, friends, complete strangers. All for domination.
A domination which can only exist in a world full of suffering, pain, and inequality. The threat of the darkside in the real world comes not in the form of dark, mystical powers but from the all-too-ordinary powers of corruption, recklessness, and greed.

2025.01.22 13:01 digital_detoxer How do you stay focused at work?
I have been mostly successful in reducing smartphone use at home because I use both a smartphone and a dumbphone, and I leave the smartphone in the office after work.
However, I’ve noticed that during work, I am more distracted because I use multiple devices.
I use two laptops: one laptop equipped with security software required by my workplace, and another laptop without security software, which allows me to use generative AI tools such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, etc. I also have my smartphone, which has work-related apps installed.
Compared to the calmness I experience at home, I feel much more distracted at work, and I can sense my focus declining.
Any tips would be much appreciated. Thanks!
