2023.03.20 23:45 Th3_Shad0w_786 Non refundable deposit and reasonable costings on cancellation.
Thanks for reading this. This is in England.
I booked a wedding venue in October 22 date of wedding to be June 23. Paid 25% (£5k) of the value of the wedding upfront (£20k). Was told it was needed to secure the booking. In December 22 unfortunately my engagement ended and I informed the venue right away of cancellation.
The venue said unfortunately nothing could be done my deposit is non refundable and gone. This is according to their T&Cs. The best they can do is offer me a later date this year (Dec 23) and use half my deposit towards it whilst waiving an additional 35% cancellation fee so in total I'd be down (£12k) if I didn't accept this offer.
I refused their offer and said I will deduct reasonable costs incurred on their behalf of around £400 for booking and signing the contracts. I also dispute the validity of this non refundable deposit under consumer protection and that this cancellation fee is excessive and an unfair contract.
We did not confirm the menu. Did not confirm decor nothing. All TBC further down the line. Just initial booking to hold the venue. It was all super early in the process. From my point of view there's been minimal cost incurred on the venues part and I've given loads of notice.
They venue wouldn't budge final offer was exchange the date at any point till Feb 2025 which is useless to me. I've just come out of a broken engagement and they expect me to get married by that point is ridiculous.
At this point I began my money claim.
They reject my claim. They've put a defence together using a solicitor (I'm representing myself) full of legalese etc. Now they claim they've incurred nearly all the costs of the wedding in December 22 (less than 2 months after I've booked and over 5 months out from the event).
Things like buying food and plates (never asked for anything bespoke) I find that absurd since I cancelled so early didn't confirm any food choices or decor. In their contract it says we can confirm menu up to 1 month prior to event. Why are they buying stuff now without my confirmation and who buys meat like 6 months in advance. What if I didn't want a certain dish..
Loads of random charges like meeting with the sales manager is £500 +vat. I mean what? I could've said I didn't like the place and left. No one charges for a sales pitch..
Apparently £750 +vat meeting with a wedding coordinator, I don't get what this is for. I've not instructed them to do anything so far. Picked no colours, no stages, no lighting absolutely nothing.
There's more but I think it paints the picture. They've picked some case law that seems to give some precedence to help their defence. They also believe they're entitled to keep the money due to loss of business and turning people away. Not being able to rebook etc. It's a popular time so I find it hard to fathom. I think they can rebook it.
They're also open to mediation, I'll do it to try and resolve but again I don’t think their costings are fair at all. I'm willing to budge but not much. I'm a bit apprehensive of going to court but I think I'm entitled to a refund less reasonable costs and have tried to be fair.
I've got a few weeks to decide to proceed or not.
First time taking any sort of legal action any advice if I've got a good case + any precedent and case law that might help? Much appreciated!!

Figuring out what the best router for your needs can be complicated. We've tested the top Wi-Fi router brands so you can find the right one for your needs.
Take a look at this list:

TP-Link Archer AX21
Best budget router
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX1800
Range
Up to 2,500 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
Available for $100 (or less if you catch a sale), the TP-Link Archer AX21 is an entry-level, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router that supports top speeds of up to 1,201Mbps (1.2Gbps) on its 5GHz band. It's nothing fancy, but it offered near flawless performance for small- to medium-size homes in our tests, and it's a cinch to setup and use thanks to TP-Link's Tether app.
Best of all, when tested against other, similar routers from names like Asus and Netgear, the AX21 held its own with faster download speeds, better range, and low latency, too. Add in a functional bandsteering mode that automatically steers you between the 2.4 and 5GHz bands within a single network, plus guest network controls and even a quality of service engine for prioritizing traffic to the most important devices on your network, and you're looking at a decent home networking upgrade that's as simple and affordable as it gets. It isn't powerful enough to max out speeds on a gigabit network, but it can still hit consistent close-range speeds near 700Mbps or so, which is more than enough for most households. Read our TP-Link Archer AX21 review.
Linksys Hydra Pro 6 (MR5500)
Best midrange router
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX5400
Range
Up to 2,700 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA2, WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
If you've already got a budget router running your network and you're ready to upgrade to something more powerful, the Linksys Hydra Pro 6 belongs high on your list. With a dual-band, AX5400 build, full support for Wi-Fi 6, and 160MHz channel support for moving data more efficiently, it was an excellent performer in my speed tests, even managing to outperform flashier picks like the also great Asus RT-AX86U.
The Hydra Pro 6 is a touch pricey as dual-band routers go, but the steady, consistent performance makes it a standout. Try and catch it on sale if you can, but if you just want a reliable, no-frills router that can keep up with gigabit speeds, look no further. Read our Linksys Hydra Pro 6 review.
TP-Link Deco W7200
Best mesh router overall
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX3600
Range
Up to 5,500 sq. ft. (two devices)
Wireless Networking Security
WPA2, WPA3
Bands
Tri-Band (2.4 and two 5GHz)
For the best performance from your mesh router, you'll want to prioritize getting one with support for Wi-Fi 6, plus a tri-band design that includes three separate bands of traffic: the usual 2.4 and 5GHz bands, plus an additional 5GHz band that the system can use as a dedicated wireless backhaul for transmissions between the router and its satellites. Most mesh routers like that cost at least $300 or even $400, but the TP-Link Deco W7200 gets you there for less than $250.
That's the best deal I've seen for a tri-band mesh router with support for Wi-Fi 6 -- and sure enough, it's an excellent performer, as well. In fact, the only system that managed to outperform it outright in my at-home speed tests is the AX6000 version of Netgear Orbi, which costs more than three times as much (keep reading for more on that one). On top of that, TP-Link's setup process is about as easy as it gets, with satellite extenders that automatically join the mesh as soon as you plug them in. Read our TP-Link Deco W7200 review.
Asus RT-AX86U
Best gaming router
Wi-Fi standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX5700
Range
Up to 2,500 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
Gaming routers promise high performance and low latency for die-hard gamers, and it isn't uncommon to find them selling for $300 or even $400. At about $270 or less, the Asus RT-AX86U dual-band router isn't inexpensive either, but it's a strong value relative to routers like those -- and the performance it delivers as a gaming router is flat-out great.
Most noteworthy is the router's latency management. In fact, it leads all of the routers I've ever tested, gaming or otherwise, with the lowest average latency across all of my tests, which online gamers will definitely appreciate. Something else you'll appreciate: An excellent mix of app-based controls and features, including a mobile boost mode, that lets you prioritize gaming traffic to your phone at the touch of a button.
Gaming features aside, the RT-AX86U offers full support for Wi-Fi 6, with strong, stable speeds and good range. If you need additional range, you can add other Asus "AIMesh" devices to your home network to make it the centerpiece of a mesh.
That checks off all of the boxes that most people want from a good gaming router, and it gets you there at a price that isn't too painful for us to recommend. Even if you aren't a gamer, this is still one of the best Wi-Fi 6 routers you can buy right now. Read our list of the best gaming routers.

2023.03.20 23:39 plumgarnet [US-GA] [H] Zoom65 EE v1 White, GMK White on Black (wob), Sakurio Switches [W] PayPal, Local Cash, DSA sets
Timestamps Zoom65 EE v1 comes with everything (carrying case, coil cord, 2x knobs). No gimmicks here, I'm just switching to low profile keyboards. Prices are pretty firm because I think they're fair based on recent sales, but I'm willing to negotiate shipping costs.
Zoom65 EE in White (anodized black weight and knobs) -
$190 OBO + shipping ($160 board + $30 built)
Pros:
- Built with lubed stabilizers
- Barely used
- Comes with original instructions
- Extra knob (shiny black aluminum) included
Cons:
- I forgot to attach the weight to the bottom (but it's included)
GMK WoB -
$40 OBO ($20 with board) + shipping Zealio Sakurio Switches (70) -
$70 OBO ($40 with board) + shipping Everything - $250 OBO + shipping Those who express interest in buying the complete set will have priority in my DMs.
I'm only interested in swapping DSA sets for the switches and keycaps. I'm interested in any unique sets in pink or white.
Thanks!

2023.03.20 23:38 Zen_21 New player with 50+ hours in game take: Game needs monsters raiding player bases in waves
(Disclaimer: I have never played other games of same features such as factorio. I have only heard of them and their features from lurking on the internet. Meaning Im not trying to suggest anything from another game to be in this game and this suggestion is solely based on my own ideas. Any similarities are purely coincidential.)
(tldr: Production for the sake of production is not enough. Game needs challenging and threatening monster raids. Strategising the use of products for defensive builds. Of course with option to turn off.)
To explain the title more:
I bought the game on sale, had it on my wishlist for a while and been waiting for a sale to pick it up. Immediately started playing no-life.
I love the game as it is amazing but after getting the second batch shipped with space elevator I felt that progression for the sake of progression is not enough and make the game repetitive while only changing the end product name and making things a bit more complex.
So I thought about it and the game needs - apart from the current working towards a goal to unlock new stuff - challenges, threats, threats that can damage your builds, defensive mechanisms, even hardcore mode with permadeath.
Endlessly expanding the production, while I admit is really fun, seems pointless without any use other than making another production line. Current monsters in game are, put in one word, pathetic. Cool designs cool attack patterns but we are humans with brains after all and dealing with these are really easy.
But what if these monsters raided our bases in swarms and waves that get harder depending on your progress or amount of waves. You would need to strategize your builds adding defensive builds, stronger foundations and walls and defending them yourself.
This way the products we make will have another use and adds another challenge that is deciding where to use them to be more effective. Use them in your production line to further your progress or in your defense to see the future.
Of course there should be an option to turn this off. This would also make the game a lot more fun in multiplayer.
Thanks for reading!

2023.03.20 23:36 PTLounge Things that your PT course doesn’t teach you but are vital to your success as a PT
Mouthy title but aiming to do what it says in the title.
Here are some things I wish I knew or learned about sooner in my PT career that my course didn’t teach me:
• Business Skills - Your personal trainer course might have taught you how to create exercise programs and work with clients, but it probably didn't teach you how to run a business. As a personal trainer, you're not just a fitness expert, you're also a business owner. You need to understand how to market your services, create a pricing strategy, and manage your finances.
• Marketing - you can’t have a consistently strong business without marketing yourself to generate new leads that can become potential clients.
• Sales - some courses cover it but usually no where near the amount you need to be successful. Whilst it might be considered a dirty word, in essence all your trying to do is match your services to the needs of your potential client and getting them to paint an image in their head as to how you can get them their results.
• Networking - “your network is your net worth”, cringe but kinda true. The more people that know you then the larger reach your business generally has and that’ll help massively when it comes to referrals.
• Income does not equal salary - just because you’re bringing in $X doesn’t mean that’s always gonna be your salary. You should treat the income you have as a PT the same as a business does with theirs. E.g. pay yourself a salary out of the income but make sure you’re able to pay business costs out of your income too; rent, marketing costs, software, etc. Think of what you make in terms of profit and loss rather than a salary.
• Your knowledge from your course is only a guide - things rarely workout the same way that you learn on your course. For example, you learn specific cues to use to teach a squat but when it comes to the real world you’re going to have to learn a bunch more and be ready to have multiple ways to teach a squat. Not everyone will automatically get how to do a squat using the cues you originally learned.
Hope this helps for now and I’d love to hear from other experienced PTs too.

Payment in PayPal F&F only. NO NOTES. Shipping to CONUS only. Only trade interests are P365/AR parts. Timestamp Vosteed Valkyrie 154CM harpoon/seax blade in black G10. Cool ass knife. Previous owner acid-washed the blade, liners, and clip. Has been sharpened. Fantastic action, no lock stick. Comes with box and papers.
$60 Kizer Grazioso N690 satin blade in micarta/brass. Catch and release. Never carried/cut anything by me, though it's clearly used. Gorgeous knife. Modern Buck 110 vibes. Guillotine-like action. Looks to be factory edge but it's hard to tell. Some wear on brass bits. No box or papers.
$45 CJRB Pyrite ARPM9 stonewashed blade in stainless steel. Carried a handful of times. Cut some boxes here and there. Factory edge. Great action though there is a tiny bit of lock stick. Comes with box and papers.
$35 QSP Penguin D2 dark stonewashed blade in shredded red carbon fiber. The knife that restarted my knife addiction. So good for the price. Carried a handful of times and eviscerated some Amazon boxes. Smooth action and drops shut. Comes with box and papers.
$25 (2) Gerber Slimsada D2 stonewashed blade in green micarta. So initially I had an
older Slimsada. I wanted to do some maintenance on it but one of the pocket clip screws stripped out so I contacted Gerber for new screws. Instead they just sent me a new replacement Slimsada. Both are on sale! The older one has been carried quite a few times and been resharpened. Signs of wear apparent (along with the aforementioned stripped screw). The newer Slimsada is LNIB, just took it out and fidgeted with. I like the micarta lock bar stop, helps with reverse flicking quite a bit. Action isn't great on either and both blades favor the clip side in centering. Both have boxes and papers.

If you've already got a budget router running your network and you're ready to upgrade to something more powerful, the Linksys Hydra Pro 6 belongs high on your list. With a dual-band, AX5400 build, full support for Wi-Fi 6, and 160MHz channel support for moving data more efficiently, it was an excellent performer in my speed tests, even managing to outperform flashier picks like the also great Asus RT-AX86U.
The Hydra Pro 6 is a touch pricey as dual-band routers go, but the steady, consistent performance makes it a standout. Try and catch it on sale if you can, but if you just want a reliable, no-frills router that can keep up with gigabit speeds, look no further. Read our Linksys Hydra Pro 6 review.

Tri-Band (2.4 and two 5GHz)
For the best performance from your mesh router, you'll want to prioritize getting one with support for Wi-Fi 6, plus a tri-band design that includes three separate bands of traffic: the usual 2.4 and 5GHz bands, plus an additional 5GHz band that the system can use as a dedicated wireless backhaul for transmissions between the router and its satellites. Most mesh routers like that cost at least $300 or even $400, but the TP-Link Deco W7200 gets you there for less than $250.
That's the best deal I've seen for a tri-band mesh router with support for Wi-Fi 6 -- and sure enough, it's an excellent performer, as well. In fact, the only system that managed to outperform it outright in my at-home speed tests is the AX6000 version of Netgear Orbi, which costs more than three times as much (keep reading for more on that one). On top of that, TP-Link's setup process is about as easy as it gets, with satellite extenders that automatically join the mesh as soon as you plug them in. Read our TP-Link Deco W7200 review.

Gaming routers promise high performance and low latency for die-hard gamers, and it isn't uncommon to find them selling for $300 or even $400. At about $270 or less, the Asus RT-AX86U dual-band router isn't inexpensive either, but it's a strong value relative to routers like those -- and the performance it delivers as a gaming router is flat-out great.
Most noteworthy is the router's latency management. In fact, it leads all of the routers I've ever tested, gaming or otherwise, with the lowest average latency across all of my tests, which online gamers will definitely appreciate. Something else you'll appreciate: An excellent mix of app-based controls and features, including a mobile boost mode, that lets you prioritize gaming traffic to your phone at the touch of a button.
Gaming features aside, the RT-AX86U offers full support for Wi-Fi 6, with strong, stable speeds and good range. If you need additional range, you can add other Asus "AIMesh" devices to your home network to make it the centerpiece of a mesh.
That checks off all of the boxes that most people want from a good gaming router, and it gets you there at a price that isn't too painful for us to recommend. Even if you aren't a gamer, this is still one of the best Wi-Fi 6 routers you can buy right now. Read our list of the best gaming routers.

Figuring out what the best router for your needs can be complicated. We've tested the top Wi-Fi router brands so you can find the right one for your needs.
Take a look at this list:

Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
Available for $100 (or less if you catch a sale), the TP-Link Archer AX21 is an entry-level, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router that supports top speeds of up to 1,201Mbps (1.2Gbps) on its 5GHz band. It's nothing fancy, but it offered near flawless performance for small- to medium-size homes in our tests, and it's a cinch to setup and use thanks to TP-Link's Tether app.
Best of all, when tested against other, similar routers from names like Asus and Netgear, the AX21 held its own with faster download speeds, better range, and low latency, too. Add in a functional bandsteering mode that automatically steers you between the 2.4 and 5GHz bands within a single network, plus guest network controls and even a quality of service engine for prioritizing traffic to the most important devices on your network, and you're looking at a decent home networking upgrade that's as simple and affordable as it gets. It isn't powerful enough to max out speeds on a gigabit network, but it can still hit consistent close-range speeds near 700Mbps or so, which is more than enough for most households.

Games for sale or trade (wishlist = boardgamegeek.com/wishlist/kaelius). Located in Raleigh, NC 27617 (near Brier Creek, if you're in the area).
2 dogs, 1 cat. No smoking. Cash or paypal is fine. Shipping via pirateship, but up to a 5% increase over minimal cost due to shipping materials, gas costs, etc. If you're interested in shipping, feel free to ask for a quote,
shipping is expensive, assume it starts at $12.
Games are sort of organized into groups. FORMAT: [CONDITION][BGG RATING, BGG COMPLEXITY] Game - Price - Short desc (I don't have ratings or complexity in for all of them yet)
Two versions of the post -- top has limited details, bottom has detailed description of condition, links to bgg for each and board game oracle for many, and comparison pricing. If it is too much, don't look at it. It also isn't in the same order as the top part.
1st version -- less details
----Highlights----
[4][7.9, 3.11] Yellow & Yangtze- \$80 -- Box opened, but components sealed/unpunched
[4] Ora Et Labora- \$60 -- Box opened, but components sealed/unpunched
[3+][8, 3.44] Star Wars Legion- \$60 -- Front page of manual was folded back, minor wear to cards
[4] Maracaibo- \$40
[3-4][8.2, 3.11] Obsession 1st Edition- \$40 -- Minor damage to 1 box corner. Includes 7 extra cards, 2 are clearly part of a promo, I don't know what the other 5 are.

[3-4] Churchill, Big Three Struggle for Peace (GMT) \$35 -- Lots of extra pieces included. A few off-center stickers; sale only, no trades.
[(new/sealed)] Munchkin Adventuretime \$75 -- slight sun fading on one side; sale only, no trades

[3-4][6.8, 1.85] Hit Z Road- \$10 -- Great shape, incredibly thematic, cool design. Zombies, auctions, dice chucking, and death. Just wish it played better with 2p.
[3-4] Fund Manager- \$10 -- Has 93/100 of the consumable score sheets; missing Korean instructions
[(new/sealed)] Sellswords Olympus- \$10
[2-box,3-components][7, 2.39] Betrayal At House on the Hill 2nd Edition- \$10 -- Wear to box corners

[2-3:box,3-4:components][7.6, 1.27] Codenames- \$7 -- half of codename cards still sealed; components in great shape; moderate-to-heavy box wear
-- STOP HERE unless you want a ridiculous amount of detail
-- 2nd version -- includes details, links and comparison pricing
BoardGame Geekmarket prices don't include s&h and I try to only include prices within the last year.
Ebay prices are 'total prices' including listed shipping, and only for 'sold' items.
I try to call out any crazy Amazon marketplace pricing when I see it.
Board Game Oracle prices only include in-stock values and don't include shipping.
All compare prices were valid when I looked them up, but I don't re-validate each time I post.

2023.03.20 23:31 AlternativeExcuse764 Top 5 Best Router in 2023
Figuring out what the best router for your needs can be complicated. We've tested the top Wi-Fi router brands so you can find the right one for your needs.
Take a look at this list:
https://quizience.com/best-wi-fi-routers-for-2022/
TP-Link Archer AX21
Best budget router
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX1800
Range
Up to 2,500 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
Available for $100 (or less if you catch a sale), the TP-Link Archer AX21 is an entry-level, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router that supports top speeds of up to 1,201Mbps (1.2Gbps) on its 5GHz band. It's nothing fancy, but it offered near flawless performance for small- to medium-size homes in our tests, and it's a cinch to setup and use thanks to TP-Link's Tether app.
Best of all, when tested against other, similar routers from names like Asus and Netgear, the AX21 held its own with faster download speeds, better range, and low latency, too. Add in a functional bandsteering mode that automatically steers you between the 2.4 and 5GHz bands within a single network, plus guest network controls and even a quality of service engine for prioritizing traffic to the most important devices on your network, and you're looking at a decent home networking upgrade that's as simple and affordable as it gets. It isn't powerful enough to max out speeds on a gigabit network, but it can still hit consistent close-range speeds near 700Mbps or so, which is more than enough for most households. Read our TP-Link Archer AX21 review.
Linksys Hydra Pro 6 (MR5500)
Best midrange router
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX5400
Range
Up to 2,700 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA2, WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
If you've already got a budget router running your network and you're ready to upgrade to something more powerful, the Linksys Hydra Pro 6 belongs high on your list. With a dual-band, AX5400 build, full support for Wi-Fi 6, and 160MHz channel support for moving data more efficiently, it was an excellent performer in my speed tests, even managing to outperform flashier picks like the also great Asus RT-AX86U.
The Hydra Pro 6 is a touch pricey as dual-band routers go, but the steady, consistent performance makes it a standout. Try and catch it on sale if you can, but if you just want a reliable, no-frills router that can keep up with gigabit speeds, look no further. Read our Linksys Hydra Pro 6 review.
TP-Link Deco W7200
Best mesh router overall
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX3600
Range
Up to 5,500 sq. ft. (two devices)
Wireless Networking Security
WPA2, WPA3
Bands
Tri-Band (2.4 and two 5GHz)
For the best performance from your mesh router, you'll want to prioritize getting one with support for Wi-Fi 6, plus a tri-band design that includes three separate bands of traffic: the usual 2.4 and 5GHz bands, plus an additional 5GHz band that the system can use as a dedicated wireless backhaul for transmissions between the router and its satellites. Most mesh routers like that cost at least $300 or even $400, but the TP-Link Deco W7200 gets you there for less than $250.
That's the best deal I've seen for a tri-band mesh router with support for Wi-Fi 6 -- and sure enough, it's an excellent performer, as well. In fact, the only system that managed to outperform it outright in my at-home speed tests is the AX6000 version of Netgear Orbi, which costs more than three times as much (keep reading for more on that one). On top of that, TP-Link's setup process is about as easy as it gets, with satellite extenders that automatically join the mesh as soon as you plug them in. Read our TP-Link Deco W7200 review.
Asus RT-AX86U
Best gaming router
Wi-Fi standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX5700
Range
Up to 2,500 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
Gaming routers promise high performance and low latency for die-hard gamers, and it isn't uncommon to find them selling for $300 or even $400. At about $270 or less, the Asus RT-AX86U dual-band router isn't inexpensive either, but it's a strong value relative to routers like those -- and the performance it delivers as a gaming router is flat-out great.
Most noteworthy is the router's latency management. In fact, it leads all of the routers I've ever tested, gaming or otherwise, with the lowest average latency across all of my tests, which online gamers will definitely appreciate. Something else you'll appreciate: An excellent mix of app-based controls and features, including a mobile boost mode, that lets you prioritize gaming traffic to your phone at the touch of a button.
Gaming features aside, the RT-AX86U offers full support for Wi-Fi 6, with strong, stable speeds and good range. If you need additional range, you can add other Asus "AIMesh" devices to your home network to make it the centerpiece of a mesh.
That checks off all of the boxes that most people want from a good gaming router, and it gets you there at a price that isn't too painful for us to recommend. Even if you aren't a gamer, this is still one of the best Wi-Fi 6 routers you can buy right now. Read our list of the best gaming routers.

2023.03.20 23:25 anon042421 Sobrang swinerte naman yata ako sa jowa????? (VERY LONG)
Kagagaling ko lang sa iyak. Not because nasaktan ako, but because sobrang naooverwhelm ako sa love and happiness na dulot ng bf ko. Ang saya saya ko naiyak nalang talagq ako sa tuwa HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Mahaba to. Sobra. So buckle up.
Back story on how we started: My Bf and I (both are 23) have been friends for a long time, we met nung 2015 thru my best friend tapos naging super close nung 2019? 2020?. All our interactions were thru chat kasi I'm not the type of person na lalabas para makipagkwentuhan. Actually, on off yung interactions namin nun kasi madalas ako maubusan ng social battery. Pero sobrang nag kick off talaga yung friendship namin nung 2019-2020. I'm extremely introverted, bilang lang sa isang kamay yung mga close friends ko. Plus, I'm socially anxious din kaya lahat ng maging kaclose ko, pinapahalagahan ko talaga. We bonded over shared interests. Youtube, anime, art, music, at marami lang iba. We also think alike and reaaally get along well.
What happened is it turns out, matagal na pala siyang may gusto sakin. He's been giving out obvious signals na he likes me pero I was EXTREMELY dense. Hanggang ngayon, pag naaalala niya, nafru-frustrate parin siya. "TANGINA. ANG HIRAP MO SOBRA. DI KO NA ALAM PANO GAGAWIN SAYO. BAKIT HINDI MO NAGEGETS.".
In my defense naman, NBSB ako, I haven't been romantically involved with anyone. I'd rather hole up in my room, magpakalunod sa hobbies ko than to make social interactions. Resulta neto is wala akong exposure sa ligawan or love signals or romantic social cues. (Kaya socially anxious rin ako kasi wala ako masyadong naging exposure. Di na nga ako marunong makipagkaibigan eh.)
Next reason why I didn't notice or suspect is because akala ko friendly lang talaga siya HAHHAAHAHAHAH. Dito siya pinaka badtrip. Eh kasi naman napaka extrovert niya. Ang ingay niya sa social media tapos laging ang daming kausap. Ang daming kaibigan. Ang daming kabiruan. Parang lahat yata ng tao kinakausap niya? So I thought, super friendly lang talaga siya. Nung naging kami at pinakita niya sakin at inexplain yung mga hints niya, I told him akala ko ganun talaga makipagsocialize mga tao. Lalo na siya. Akala ko talaga mga biro. Malay ko, I don't know how popular people socialize nor interact with each other. Nanghuhula lang talaga ako. I'm not the type na mag-assume din naman kasi who am I to assume na sa dami ng friends niya, ako magugustuhan niya. Btw, hindi ako maganda ha? Hindi ako drop-dead-gorgeous-very-mahal-ni-lord-type-wattpad-main-character. I'm actually very average looking.
Last reason, (yata?) Is coz he was publicly honest na he used to be in love with a girl and he wrote one of his songs, thinking about her (Musician siya btw) Shini-ship pa sila ng mga tao. Muling ibalik daw. Funny things is, isa rin ako sa mga shipper HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA. GANDA NUNG KANTA EH. TAPOS BASED FROM TRUE LOVE STORY? SHEEESH. Pero wala na talaga silang special relationship. He was hung up for a long time pero he moved on na daw. As in zero feelings na daw. Friends nalang talaga. Yan sabi niya sakin nung sinasabihan ko siya na why hindi nalang sila magbalikan. Hindi pala naging sila, hanggang MU lang. (Ako talaga naging first gf) Edi kung hindi naging sila edi ituloy, ganun, sabi ko. HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
Ay may isa rin pala siya naging ka MU ulit. 2020 to nung naging close kami. Gumive up siya sakin kasi wala daw talagang sign of budging galing sakin. Para daw akong mataas na bundok na kailangan akyatin. Sa totoo lang, nagtampo ako nung nakahanap siya ng bebe nun eh. Kasi nung kinongratulate ko siya na may bebe na siya nung miny-day niya, hindi manlang siya nagreply. Hineart lang message ko amputa. I was expecting na k-kwento niya pano nagkakilala, ganun, blah blah. NOTHING. Akala ko pamandin, I was one of his close friends na pagk-kwentuhan ng mga ganung bagay. Apparently, I wasn't close enough pala. Nalungkot ako sobra. I FELT SO BETRAAAAYED. Yung tipong akala mo best friend mo tapos ikaw pala hindi bestfriend HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. Hindi na rin kami masyadong nag-uusap nun. Hinayaan ko na rin kasi syempre busy siya sa ka MU niya. APPARENTLY, kaya ganun naging treatment niya sakin is because masama loob niya kasi ako naman daw talaga gusto niya pero para akong bato. Syempre he tried to not talk to me kasi he was already entertaining another girl. Unfair yun para sa girl, and I agree. Well, that relationship DID NOT last. SOBRANG TOXIC PALA NI ATE GUUURL. BF knew better and noped out of that situation real fast. With respect of course. Kaya ayun, more interaction ulit kami.
So you may think, "kung hirap na hirap na siya, bakit hindi nalang siya directly umamin sayo?" Answer is, natatakot daw siya sobra HAHAHHAHAHAHAHA kasi daw nagk-kwento ako sakanya about sa mga guys na nagtangkang lumapit but were brutally rejected. I was firm kasi na ayoko pa pumasok sa relasyon. And them dudes were not worth changing my mind. College to eh, ewan ko, bigla siguro akong nagbloom kaya may mga lumalapit na. Pero ayun na nga. Natakot sa rejection. He didn't wanna try risking the friendship din daw. Sabi ko grabe naman, if he confessed, at nireject ko siya, I won't stop being friends with him naman no. Sabi niya, kahit na. Kasi daw pag narejct, wala na daw talagang pag-asa. Kaya he kept on making hints nalang kahit hindi gumagana.
One day (beginning ng pandemic), he uploaded a demo song and sobrang nagandahan ako. He said na wala lang daw yun, demo lang na natripan niya gawin. I begged him to continue the song kasi oh my gosh yung melody, yung composition, ang ganda. And so he did. Inuupdate nyako sa process at sobrang manghang mangha ako. Lagi kami magka call nun sa discord. (Nagstart mag discord kasi sabi ko dun nalang. Mas maganda kaysa messenger.) He even told me that the song is now based sa artist name ko and sa comic ko noon. Nah, he lied. Based talaga sakin. Pero ako namang si tanga, tuwang tuwa, naniwala na doon niya binase. Matagal nakong fan ng music niya. Aware ako na super talented siya. Di man siya kasing sikat ng mainstream artists like JK or Zack Tabudlo, his songs are still as good para sakin. Now, being involved in the process of him writing that song, (hindi naman invloved, more like updated) I started admiring him even more. Kinilig rin yata ako sa lyrics ng song.
Then I started to feel like he has a thing for me. Kasi sobrang bait, sobrang supportive, sobrang attentive na niya sakin. Super ready tumulong pag may need ako, like andiyan siya agad. To the point na napaisip nalang ako, pang friends lang ba talaga yung ganitong treatment? Hinayaan ko nalang. And then out of nowhere, I just asked him "may balak ka bang ipursue ako?" Wala na siya nagawa at umamin nalang. He said yes, he really really likes me. And so I made an impulsive decision of asking of starting a relationship with him. Walang ligaw ligaw. Walang kahit ano. Kami na. I really like him as a person din naman. He's like a walking green flag HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I trusted my character judgement and our long-time friendship and sailed with it.
Fast forward po sa ngayon na nag-iiyak nga ako sa tuwa HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Kanina kasi, Sobrang nalulungkot lang ako sa life situation ko kaya sobrang namiss ko siya kasi he was my comfort talaga. Nagkita kami the day before pero nagcrave talaga ako ng presence niya bigla. I was even grumbling like a kid kanina. It was already 12 am pero I asked him to come. Di naman ganun kalayo bahay nila pero far enuff na need ng vehicle. He was planning on riding his bike kaso ang dami daw aso sa kalsada kaya nag angkas nalang siya. Kaso lang din, walang tumatanggap tapos it was already 2am. (Night owl kami ha.) Sabi ko wag nalang, izokay. Pero he insisted, may tumanggap, then he came. Tumambay lang kami sa labas ng bahay, kwentuhan, and then he gave me that tight hug and lambing na hinihingi ko sa kanya. Umuwi siya around 3:30am. Tapos he chatted me nung nakauwi na siya. I thanked him sa pagpunta niya just to satisfy my whim. He said he'll do everything. Everytime. For me. GAGSTI, TANGGAL ANGAS KO. IYAK TALAGA AKO EH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Btw lagi niyang ginagawa to ha. Legit yung anytime (except pag tulog). Naiyak lang siguro ako talaga ngayon kasi I was going thru something.
I remember one time, I didn't eat dinner pa and it was late and I didn't feel like cooking kasi I was really really down. 2 am, nagluto siya, then biked to deliver that lunchbox contaning what he cooked, then left. I ate that food while bawling like a child. I ate every single bit of rice and ate that salty ass egg deliciously. Pati yung sunog na bawang sa fried rice, kinain ko HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
AS IN LAHAT NG GOOD QUALITIES IN A JOWA, NASAKANYA NA. I'M TELLING YOU, WALKING GREEN FLAG. YANG 5 LOVE LANGUAGES NA YAN? LAHAT YAN MERON YAN.
He would happily, genuinely, and wholeheartedly do whatever I request from him. No thinking, no questions asked. Stay up. Watch a movie. Tell a story. Blow dry my hair. Help me write a story. Kahit ano.
Wala siyang bisyo like smoking or drinking. I, on the otherhand, occassionally drink. Kaya nung sobrang nalasing ako at nagsusuka, at nag-iiiyak kasi nandun yung friend namin na ex rin ng best friend ko na nakipaghiwalay sa kanya kasi daw hahanapin sarili tapos pinagsisigawan ko ng "HAHANAPIN SARILI?!?!?! BOBO KA BA?!?! AMBOBO?!?!?!?! MIDTERMS NIYA NUN TAPOS GAGANYANIN MO?!?!?! GAGO KA BA?!??!?!" (I regretted this and said sorry many times. First time kong malasing ng ganun at nadala ng emosyon. Naka move on na rin naman na kasi lahat. Bigla lang bumalik HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA). So ayun na nga, todo bantay at asikaso siya sakin nun and also stayed up to clean up all the mess kasi siya lang talaga di umiinom. Tapos mapapagalitan talaga ako sa kalat namin kasi samin kami uminom. He didn't want that kaya naglinis talaga siya. And he went home, may araw na, with no sleep. Kasi binantayan din niya ako sa kwarto dahil humihikbi parin ako at ang daldal ko.
So ayun na nga, I FUCKING LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS MAN. AND I CAN CLEARLY FEEL AND SEE NA HE LOVES EVERY INCH OF ME TOO. SOBRANG SWERTE KO SA JOWA. TAPOS FIRST TRY????? SHEEEEESH. NAG OOVERCOMPENSATE YATA SI LORD PARA SA MGA TAGILID NA ASPECT NG BUHAY KO HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAGAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA. MAG 2 YEARS NA DIN KAMI NEXT MONTH HEHE.
He knows I have an anonymous reddit account pero ayaw niyang alamin anong user id ko. Gusto daw niya na maging 100% anonymous ako para I can say or share whatever I want. If may gusto naman daw ako ishare sa kanya, magsasabi ako. STILL, IF U HAPPEN TO READ THIS, MALALAMAN MO AGAD NA AKO TO KAYA HEMLO, AWABYU AND I APPRECIATE YOU SO MUCH ULIT 🩵🩵🩵

2023.03.20 23:22 Mental_Respond_1176 What are some ways to enroll in brand registry on Amazon as an Amazon Seller launching Private Label on Amazon, without going through the "intent to use TM" application? Can a trademark be fully trademarked without any prior sales, and still be eligible for immediate enrollment in brand registry?

2023.03.20 23:22 Glass-Bobcat9926 Best Router 2023
Figuring out what the best router for your needs can be complicated. We've tested the top Wi-Fi router brands so you can find the right one for your needs.
Take a look at this list:
https://quizience.com/best-wi-fi-routers-for-2022/
TP-Link Archer AX21
Best budget router
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX1800
Range
Up to 2,500 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
Available for $100 (or less if you catch a sale), the TP-Link Archer AX21 is an entry-level, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 router that supports top speeds of up to 1,201Mbps (1.2Gbps) on its 5GHz band. It's nothing fancy, but it offered near flawless performance for small- to medium-size homes in our tests, and it's a cinch to setup and use thanks to TP-Link's Tether app.
Best of all, when tested against other, similar routers from names like Asus and Netgear, the AX21 held its own with faster download speeds, better range, and low latency, too. Add in a functional bandsteering mode that automatically steers you between the 2.4 and 5GHz bands within a single network, plus guest network controls and even a quality of service engine for prioritizing traffic to the most important devices on your network, and you're looking at a decent home networking upgrade that's as simple and affordable as it gets. It isn't powerful enough to max out speeds on a gigabit network, but it can still hit consistent close-range speeds near 700Mbps or so, which is more than enough for most households. Read our TP-Link Archer AX21 review.
Linksys Hydra Pro 6 (MR5500)
Best midrange router
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX5400
Range
Up to 2,700 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA2, WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
If you've already got a budget router running your network and you're ready to upgrade to something more powerful, the Linksys Hydra Pro 6 belongs high on your list. With a dual-band, AX5400 build, full support for Wi-Fi 6, and 160MHz channel support for moving data more efficiently, it was an excellent performer in my speed tests, even managing to outperform flashier picks like the also great Asus RT-AX86U.
The Hydra Pro 6 is a touch pricey as dual-band routers go, but the steady, consistent performance makes it a standout. Try and catch it on sale if you can, but if you just want a reliable, no-frills router that can keep up with gigabit speeds, look no further. Read our Linksys Hydra Pro 6 review.
TP-Link Deco W7200
Best mesh router overall
Wi-Fi Standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX3600
Range
Up to 5,500 sq. ft. (two devices)
Wireless Networking Security
WPA2, WPA3
Bands
Tri-Band (2.4 and two 5GHz)
For the best performance from your mesh router, you'll want to prioritize getting one with support for Wi-Fi 6, plus a tri-band design that includes three separate bands of traffic: the usual 2.4 and 5GHz bands, plus an additional 5GHz band that the system can use as a dedicated wireless backhaul for transmissions between the router and its satellites. Most mesh routers like that cost at least $300 or even $400, but the TP-Link Deco W7200 gets you there for less than $250.
That's the best deal I've seen for a tri-band mesh router with support for Wi-Fi 6 -- and sure enough, it's an excellent performer, as well. In fact, the only system that managed to outperform it outright in my at-home speed tests is the AX6000 version of Netgear Orbi, which costs more than three times as much (keep reading for more on that one). On top of that, TP-Link's setup process is about as easy as it gets, with satellite extenders that automatically join the mesh as soon as you plug them in. Read our TP-Link Deco W7200 review.
Asus RT-AX86U
Best gaming router
Wi-Fi standard
Wi-Fi 6
Speed Rating
AX5700
Range
Up to 2,500 sq. ft.
Wireless Networking Security
WPA3
Bands
Dual-Band (2.4 and 5GHz)
Gaming routers promise high performance and low latency for die-hard gamers, and it isn't uncommon to find them selling for $300 or even $400. At about $270 or less, the Asus RT-AX86U dual-band router isn't inexpensive either, but it's a strong value relative to routers like those -- and the performance it delivers as a gaming router is flat-out great.
Most noteworthy is the router's latency management. In fact, it leads all of the routers I've ever tested, gaming or otherwise, with the lowest average latency across all of my tests, which online gamers will definitely appreciate. Something else you'll appreciate: An excellent mix of app-based controls and features, including a mobile boost mode, that lets you prioritize gaming traffic to your phone at the touch of a button.
Gaming features aside, the RT-AX86U offers full support for Wi-Fi 6, with strong, stable speeds and good range. If you need additional range, you can add other Asus "AIMesh" devices to your home network to make it the centerpiece of a mesh.
That checks off all of the boxes that most people want from a good gaming router, and it gets you there at a price that isn't too painful for us to recommend. Even if you aren't a gamer, this is still one of the best Wi-Fi 6 routers you can buy right now. Read our list of the best gaming routers.

2023.03.20 23:21 Badditor90 Hypothetical Situation: Someone is Forcing Apple's hand
Imagine yourself as Tim Cook for a moment, and you have enjoyed the experience of being Apple's CEO for a while now.
However, something on social media has gone viral, a guy is using his influence to get people to stop buying iPhone's and iPads and Apple Watches, etc, his main "Tagline" is "Force Apple into lowering the prices of their products so EVERYONE can afford an iPhone", at first you focus on those who WILL buy Apple Products, regardless of what this guy is saying, however.
The brand new iMac's, iPads, Apple Watch's, MacBooks, Homepods and pretty much any product Apple Sells has had a noticeable decrease in sales vs tech from Apple's early days, this guy clearly has a great deal of influence and he is clearly forcing your hand.
For Reference just from iPhone 14 to 15 alone, sales dropped to mere thousands, iPads dropped to mere hundreds, MacBook's and iMacs combined, mere tens, for Apple the situation has JUST become dire.
Then the guy in another video says this at the end of it
"Face facts Tim Cook, your a greedy, corrupt individual who will NEVER be Steve Jobs, your products never have enough in them to justify the high cost, competitors add far more and for a far more affordable price, if you wanna bring Apple out of the dump, your products prices need to change, iPhone 16 Pro Max, $300USD, iPad Pro 12.9", $600USD, Apple Watch, $150USD, a fully speced out iMac, $1,200USD, MacBook, $1,200USD, need I go on?, the sales figures have spoken, and so have the people, one choice, Apple goes Bankrupt, or Apple prices their products to cater to EVERYONE'S Weekly Paycheck"
As Tim Cook, how would you Respond to this?
