I will feel the person's anger more and more strongly as the distance between us decreases. The person doesn't need to outwardly show any sign of anger for me to feel it - they can appear perfectly calm but if they are angry, I'll feel it.

When I interact with people, I don't try to put myself in their shoes. I've known for many years that I can sense other people's strong emotions, so I mostly focus my awareness on how I'm feeling and use that as a sense. If how I'm feeling changes spontaneously (not caused by my mental focus, thoughts, or reaction) when I'm interacting with someone, I'll know that I'm sensing something from the other person.

My experience of other people's anger is different from when I feel angry. I experience other people's anger as a very uncomfortable sensation my abdomen and solar plexus. It's similar to when I feel angry but I'm more detached and I'm observing the uncomfortable sensation, which is mostly localized to my solar plexus. When I'm angry, my thoughts and emotions are fully engaged, my anger has a direction, and I feel it fully in my body. Like, "I'm experiencing anger vs I'm angry."

When I experience someone else's anger, it's not directed at the object of their anger - it's just a sensation.

So if someone is angry at me, I don't feel angry at myself - I just feel their anger being directed at me

The way I believe it works is through resonance. Have a look at this video that illustrates it with wine glasses: https://youtu.be/lTl0badhh8Y

People are like wine glasses that vibrate how they are feeling and if someone is capable of resonating with them, they begin to feel it too.

If my baseline feeling is far from anger (I'm feeling a strong positive emotion), I'll feel other people's negative emotions less, or not at all.

I've played this mission a few times tonight and got super samples (SSs) 3 times. They don't spawn in every mission.

So far, every single time it was on the outer "ring" of the map (never in the dark corrupted circular area around the center).

Some tips:

  • You can know right from the start if SSs are present by checking your sample list
  • If you know some are present, focus your search on the outer area.
  • Bring a Jump Pack - it lets you get to higher ground to spot the SS rock more easily, helps you to evade mobs and increase your movement speed.
  • Make it a priority to find the samples and when you do, go directly to extract and drop them there before starting the mission. There are some deep holes in the ground on some maps (easy to fall into if it's night) that you might not be able to jump out of even with the jump pack - you don't want to lose your samples in there. Afterwards, you'll have the option of extracting with the samples even if you fail the mission because you're short on time.
  • I've recall seeing a video that mentioned if you quit the game mid-mission (not return to the ship) and replay the same mission, you get the same map, so if you have a map you know has SSs and you haven't found them, you can quit and retry the mission to search for them again. I don't know if that's still true.
  • Using Scout Armor might help you to find them more easily (I tried but couldn't get the hang of it in my attempts so far though) - See this video for more details.

My loadout has been:

  • Incendiary Breaker (one shot to eggs will destroy them with fire damage)
  • Light Scout Armor
  • Redeemer
  • Impact Grenades
  • Jump Pack
  • Orbital Gas Strike - to clear mobs following me
  • Orbital Railcannon Strike to get rid of Bile Titans
  • Orbital Laser Strike to get rid of Bile Titans
  • Stamina Booster

Edit:

I ended up collecting 115 super samples (used 15 along the way) while this mission was available.

The video on locating SSs was somewhat accurate- the Scout passive sometimes marks the SS chicken leg rock as a point of interest, but usually it didn’t for me.

On the other hand, it was right that the SS rock is visible on the minimap (middle and highest zoom levels) and you can learn to spot them with practice. In the end, I didn’t need the scout armor to confirm the rock’s location - I could find it by looking for it on the map and I was right over 90% of the time.

Super samples were listed as being present on a mission I did last night. I didn’t find them but if they do spawn, it would be a fast and easy way to farm them.

This approach made a huge difference. I went from hating playing against the bots to enjoying it more than the bugs. I also taught this approach to a newbie and he also found it far easier.

I've played for 80 hours and haven't had any problems when using Proton Experimental.

If you switch proton versions, rename the numbered folder for Helldivers 2 (553850) to force Steam to create a new folder for it.

It should be in your Steam Library at /steamapps/compatdata/553850 (where your Steam Library folder is will vary, so I can't give a specific path)

If you still have trouble, look through people's reports on ProtonDB for things you can try. https://www.protondb.com/app/553850

If you don't rename/delete that folder between Proton version changes, files relating to both versions will combine, which can sometimes cause it to not run as it should. Local save games might be stored in there as well, so don't delete the folder before making sure your progress hasn't been lost (it's also in Steam Cloud but sometimes deleting local save games can result in sync problems).

If you’re talking about lucid dreaming, try looking at your hands or to read some text.

Could be based on the expression “Cat got your tongue?” (Except he swallowed the cat after)

My favourite games from childhood were the Ultima series (3 onward).

I’ve done this recently twice and it worked between 2 different distros on different hardware. I don’t remember if I had to link it again, but if I did, it worked and my history was intact.

 

Is anyone else getting logged out of their accounts after about a week when logged in on a desktop web browser? (I'm using Firefox) I don't have this issue on mobile with Voyager.

Is there a way of staying logged in indefinitely?

If this is a setting, the inconvenience of needing to re-login gives users an incentive to weaken their security because users will try to make logging in less of a hassle (like disabling 2FA).

Remastered version

One of my favorite songs.

 

From the game Serious Sam: The First Encounter.

A variation of it from Serious Sam 3: BFE - Boss Fight Strings

 

Variations:

Vita Nostra

River

 

When I was a kid, Conan the Barbarian was my favorite movie.

A large part of that was the epic soundtrack. There are a number of tracks on it I think would fit here and I'll eventually post others but this was my favorite.

Favorite parts:

  • 2:13 vocals start
  • Trumpets at 3:24

Basil Poledouris took inspiration from the Carmina Burana by Carl Orff when creating the Conan soundtrack. The CB is epic as well and is worth a listen. Most people are probably already familiar with the opening movement (O Fortuna).

 

The answer to this would be good to include in the sidebar so people would have a better idea what’s ok to post.

Epic music is its own genre, but it can also be used to describe music more broadly - music from other genres that evokes a feeling of awe or other strong emotion.

The, uh, other place’s epic music community describes it this way:

“Music that speaks to the soul either lyrically, melodically, instrumentally, aurally, rhythmically, vocally, technologically, emotionally, temporally, or in some other profound way.” (a broad definition that would encompass multiple genres)

What kind of music would you like this community to focus on?

EDIT:

I just came across ascallion's post on [email protected] from 2 months ago where they described it as Cinematic music that speaks to the soul.

That description answers my question.

 

This isn’t something I know how to create, so tossing the idea out for those who might know how to implement it.

The bot would detect Amazon links here and automatically create a comment in the post with a ca.camelcamelcamel.com link for the product.

This would let readers easily check the price history of the product to know if the current sale is a good one.

The same (or a different bot) could also link to fakespot (or some other review checker) for the product.

 

From the video description:

The division of OM into A-U-M originated in the ancient Mandukya Upanishad where the three letters represent three states of experience – waking, dream, and sleep. But rules of Sanskrit grammar require the letters A and U to combine into the letter O.

According to the rules of sandhi (euphonic combination), the letter a followed by u must combine to form o. They can never remain side by side. For this reason, to say that om has three letters, aum, is incorrect. The Mandukya Upanishad's represented OM as A-U-M for symbolic purposes, not for pronunciation or writing.

Sanskrit vowels are generally short (hasra) or long (dirgha). But the o of om is prolated, that means it's extra long, it is three units (pluta) in duration. So, om is properly pronounced with an extra long o, om.
