If you have Outlook, it will use a popup with a sound before meetings. The default is 15 minutes before and at the the start time, but it should be customizable. It's very helpful for me.

It is, but the port does have issues. I had all my ascension progress wiped one day, despite keeping achievements and records of earlier runs. Support eventually got back to me and said it was a known issue with no expected fix date, and offered me a refund. Besides that, there were regular issues where the game would crash often if you rotated your phone orientation and the opening menu sounds would play even if you had everything muted in settings.

I got it for PC and it's a better experience. Besides fixing these issues, you can also add mods.

There is one sin expilitly mentioned to be unforgivable, and in the New Testament no less. I don't think it's ever said that it is the only one, but it may be implied that everything else is forgivable. Beyond that, I think the idea is that unforgiven people go to hell beacause it is "fair" for imperfect beings, and God only forgives those who ask to be forgiven, and this is by God's choice, not inability.

Also, from memory the door in The Good Place led unequivocally to (spoilers if you haven't seen it) oblivion, non-existence, the cessation of sensation, impression, and identity. They needed it because the human condition required us to inevitably suffer in eternity eventually, regardless of however perfect existence could be. When there was nothing left to satisfy that had not fully satisfied as much as it could, the protagonists would voluntarily end it.

I do agree that it is absurd to think a system where "sins" of finite magnitude accrued in a finite time should lead to inifinite punishment, and that it might be considered justice, and that this system might be created by a being that is perfectly motivated and perfectly capable to see to our best interests.

I also didn't really care to piecemeal accept parts or impressions from the Bible when it claims to wholly be divine-inspired Truth despite contradicting itself (and I could only take the excuse of it being symbolic instead of lying so far).

In the end, I came to believe the universe is too able to be appreciated for its sensible, beautiful complexity by intelligent beings for it to believably be borne of randomness, so I landed on Deism.

Because the most reasonable explanation for being shorted on a paycheck is an accounting error, meaning no malice intended. Unless the employer tried to keep the money after realizing the mistake, they should at most be given a fine.

Assuming the original post meant robbing the store, that's quite different. There is malicious intent to deprive strangers of their money, and probably at threat of violence. Or even if it was just unattended, the theft is still done with malicious intent. The last situation is much like pickpocketing, so the analogy fits.

Mages are generally pretty bad into tanks, and that's a significant reason why they tend to be weak in ARAM (unless they have great range or are named Brand or Swain). Most of the time you can have viable options to help like Liandry's, Void Staff, and Rylai's as others have mentioned. But honestly it might be best to try to reroll into something else. Usually ARAM teams have too much magic damage, and that makes it easy to itemize against.

I remember seeing a discussion over a premade ARAM team with hundreds of games and 99% winrate. They would roll for a comp with 3 melee frontliners, 1 ADC and 1 mage/enchanter. Sometimes the rolls don't work out like that, but I would try to pick from rolls to fill in those gaps if you want to win. Or just play someone who seems fun, that's good too.

I've only been at two jobs that offered an FSA but both had resources explaining clearly that it is use it or lose it. And my personal risk aversion is why I chose an HSA instead. But it seems like a good idea for people to be able to save money by saying "This isn't really income, since I am confident it's only going to a demonstratable health expense. So don't tax me on it." It's like a business expense can be tax deductible, and you are in the business of living. But then you don't get to take home extra money for being under budget. When used correctly, it's a tool to drive down living expenses and is more efficient for lower incomes since it uses a flat max annual deduction.

I don't want to victim blame people that lose money by overcommitting, but it's not like this is in fine print. You can get short articles that explain it in simple terms just by googling "fsa" before committing thousands of dollars to something. If you don't have much idea what your minimum spending on healthcare will be, just keep it as income for full freedom or use a different tax-advantaged option. It's just meant to be an option for people with good awareness of budgetting to save some money.

He was making a joke about Paw Patrol

Jesus dude yeah people have had it worse but it's not a competition. You accused him of not earning his financial position and he explained how your attack on person is baseless. Having friends is a support system, it doesn't mean you had it easy. If you were not raised by wolves, you've had people help you too.

I also would recommend credit unions over banks. I have a local one that I use but I also have an account with PenFed, which is open to the whole nation and is one of the few places that offers a 2% unlimited cashback on everything no-fees card.

Thank you for the context about the situation and its aftermath. I'm sorry if I was too quick to judge this, I was just going off of my personal experiences. Vegans have a reputation for being insufferable that impedes our efforts to convince others, and stuff like this reinforces that. I've found that people are plenty aware of the moral arguments for veganism, so simply getting attention is not so helpful. The main obstacle is that people just don't want to go through the self-reflection of why they should follow through with making a change.

I'd agree that trying to convince someone who is decisely opposed to a concept is a waste of time, and the owner seems like a huge asshole. But his more reasonable customers observing the actions of someone with the moral high ground can still be swayed. Anyway, it sounds like this has enabled a very positive net good regardless of what I thought of the original method, so I am happy to have been wrong.

This style of activism is harmful to the cause. No one in that restaurant is going to think "Huh, those people had a point. I will consider their message more." They'll simply resolve that vegans are crazy and annoying, and be pushed further than ever from converting. Honestly shouting like this is just performative for the people doing it. The best ways to be an activist imo are engaging people personally (like Earthling Ed's good-faith debates) or even just presenting people with information and going for numbers, relying on people engaging in self-reflection on their own.

Yeah it gets much better after the personal story leveling stuff. It's an eleven year old game, and unfortunately the content that new players see first is the most dated. They originally leaned more into a more generic RPG story that just happens to be set in an mmo. Heart of Thorns is markedly better, and it just improves from there. By the time of Path of Fire, the story, characters, maps, and mechanics all feel interesting and meaningful imo.
