>I met my boyfriend playing a video game called destiny when it came out in 2014. He is 8 years older than me. We were friends for a few years then started dating long distance. That is when I starting getting to know his children. There is 2 girls, let's call them Amy (5) and Ella (10). Both of their mothers are really crappy and they seemed to like me. We video chatted all the time and I would help them both with their home work, and stuff. Well about a half a year into that he came to visit me in person for the first time. He was there for 5 days and it was AMAZING! I decided a couple weeks later to commit and make the move down to where he lived about 500 miles away.
>When I got there and settled in I found out that his recent ex ( Amy's mom) as well as her new boyfriend were living... in our shed! (Shed man and woman or shed people when together) They made it perfectly clear from the moment I got there that they didn't like me. I was staying home for a while taking care of the kids, the two girls and the shed woman's child from a previous relationship called Dillan. It was no big deal for me as I was a nanny prior to moving here. The kids all loved me and it was going great until the shed people finally moved out into a trailer in a trailer park.
>They took Dyllan and Amy and we had them on the weekends. Well it turns out that the shed people had been doing meth this whole time! We only found out because when they had their baby together (they got pregnant while living with us and I have a whole slew of shed people stories buy I digress,) the baby tested positive for meth and so did both of them. They got all three kids taken away. (Dillan, Amy and their new baby) we were able to get Amy back but not Dillan unfortunately. Well, ever since them both kids have been becoming increasingly more terrible to me. Calling me names, saying they wish I would leave.
>It got way worse when my boyfriend and I announced our engagement. Ella's told her aunt (I am friends with) that she doesn't like me because he dad doesn't spend as much time with her but it's completely just not true. Before I moved in, my boyfriend spent all his time either at work or playing video games and would completely ignore his kids. I have encouraged him to have much more family time with them both with and without me. Should I just leave? Or is there something I can do to make this better. I really do love my boyfriend so much but the constant stress from his kids

For instance if i dont open my monero wallet for a week then decide i need to send some xmr i will have to wait nearly an hour for it to sync. And thats on a remote node! With every other crypto lite wallet it will sync within seconds no matter how long ive been away. If i change remote nodes sometimes it will start all over from the beginning of the blockchain and take 12 hours or more.
Or sometimes if i send monero it will say it was sent then it will just show 0 confirmations for days and my coins will still be gone, and this has happened at the normal and 5x miner fee options. So monero people tell me i have to do some convuluted command in terminal to rescue the coins and they arent really gone (they were there i just couldnt access them for days).
Or if i want to send 1/2 of my wallet to an address it wont let me send the other half for an hour or more because reasons.

It was hot today and everyone was exhausted and grumpy at school and I ended up getting into an argument with my friend over whether france or spain was a better holiday destination- an irrelevant argument as they’re both lovely countries. I ended up getting too passionate while defending France when I literally don’t even care and now I just feel so frustrated at myself for it.
She's so tired, she's dehydrated from breastfeeding two babies, blah blah blah. Everyone knows she's got an Army of nannies taking care of the kids, so sit the fuck down Hilary. Even if she didn't, she willingly and knowingly had another baby by a surrogate - knowing full well that she'd have to infants to "care" for. Does she expect anyone to feel sorry for her?
Hi there! I know our beloved subreddit is kinda 'not active', but I will leave it here anyway: I'm struggling to make my goddammit Freetype render java fonts and got no success so far.

She is SO selfish & condescending to Anna. Laura fucks up, gets knocked up by a loser who cheated on her, and still lives in her parent's home. She acts like because she had an accident baby, that the world revolves around her. She is not understanding of Anna's feelings nor empathetic. And, her parents suck too! They usually take the side of Laura. Anna is the ONLY reasonable person in the family. I would have kicked Laura out SO FAST because of the way she treated Anna. Lets see how "grown" you are now. Man, this show just depicts the worst in humanity. Keep abortion legal & affordable Healthcare available for ALL women!
Hello WoT reddit, I just want to preface this by saying that while my dad plays a lot, I myself have never played myself so I have no clue about the actual game.
So as the title says, my dad becomes, pardon my lanuage, a raging asshole whenever he plays WoT. Whenever he isn't he is a great father and nothing but supportive of our family, but something about this game just makes him go berserk. He is constantly yelling at his teammates, spam pinging the map, spamming chat about how bad they all are, and it is driving me and the rest of our family nuts. My dad yelling at his teammates followed by my mom yelling at him to stop yelling because he can be heard all across the house is not a rare occurence anymore. I get that being passionate in a competitive game can make it frustrating to lose, but this is honestly going too far.
Does anyone have any ideas or tips on how to try and stop this, hopefully without forcing him to just quit altogether?
https://redd.it/3xzacj TL;DR from the old thread, my dad retired, undermined my mother and I, was lying about his professional past and generally being a slob.
As I mentioned last thread, my mother agreed to let me replace my door with a doggie door and change the locks. She also instituted a do nothing for my dad campaign.
The latter came to a head first. I heard raised voices on Christmas day, and then my mom came over to my apartment, asking if she could lay low. It turns out my dad opened his drawers and realized he was out of clean underwear. He came to where my mom was and demanded she wash his laundry. My mom replied she had just come off of a 50 hour work week, and he was more than capable of doing his own wash.
My father, apparently, started yelling and flipping out. He left and came back with his underwear and started throwing it at my mom, which is when she left and came over. We heard dad leave soon afterwards (no idea where he went to). Mom left his underwear where they laid, including a pair that was sort of dangling from the Christmas tree.
Mom and I ended up watching Christmas movies, eating cookies and talking. I found out mom had actually started talking to a divorce lawyer, but wasn't 100% set on what she was doing yet. It also turns out that mom has been sleeping in the guest room for the past few weeks, ever since my father refused to wash the bedding. Also, my parents finances aren't what I thought they were, thanks to poor investments on my dad's part a decade ago.
My family actually celebrated Christmas on New Years Eve, as it worked better with our schedules. The day of my niece arrived and, as only a toddler can, asked why there were underpants on the Christmas tree. I replied they were her grandfather's, and she repeated the question to him. My dad finally picked them up.
One brother has been super supportive of mom. The other has been more reluctant. But when dad wasn't helping at all with getting food together, and making snarky comments, I think they realized how bad things were. Before lunch, they pulled my dad into his office and tried to talk to him about what's going on. My dad started yelling instead, just saying that neither of them could give any feedback on his marriage, as both of them had "failed" to get married, and how they were both "failures" "losers", and making some points that were a bit more personal and specific.
One of my brothers started yelling back calling him on his history

Thinking about when Snape calls Hermione that in PoA... Wasn't Snape a bit of an unsufferable know it all when he was in school. He immediately insults Gryffindor's for being stupid before he's even been sorted and he is way to interested in Lupin being a werewolf.
Isn't he being a bit of a hypocrite insulting Hermione this way?

Pull no punches, and if I try to defend myself, feel free to call me a whiny baby. Don't worry about hurting my feelings--I relish thorough criticism.
So I've been having this problem for about a month now and I have tried so many things to get it to stop happening. Have tried, reintalling driver/s, rolling back drivers, reinstalling windows, tried just about every different graphiccs setting, tried diffferent reffresh rates, v-sync on/offf, g-sync on/off and can't get a fix ffor the life of me.
Apex is by far my favorite and mosst played game currently and this makes it unplayable. Any and all help will be appreciated.

I get 15 seconds of ads before every freaking video. Wtf?
If you have an active group somewhere on Signal, the app is completely unusable outside of that conversation.
If two groups are active at the same time, the app becomes simply useless, as it constantly jumps between conversations.
I'm on iOS and can't find a way to disable this behaviour. It's beyond me why this was implemented.
Edit: from other posts it would appear this is a bug?

Hi all,
Please let me start by saying that english is not my native tongue, so please forgive any mistakes.
I'd like to share a concern I have regarding the experienced part of the community in general. I am a moderately experienced coh2 player(1 star, almost 2) (Redeyed on steam if you want to check). I always play team games, and am generally paired with one or more random players. When these players are experienced (3 stars, level 100) and we are losing the game, I am often the target of rude comments from those players, because I don't live up to their expectations.
Let me give you two examples these past couple of days.
1- Game has just started, I, playing Wehrmacht, am building a healing bunker near my base, like I always did until that point. Conversation goes like this:
Him: "for real? a 1v1 bunker in a 2v2 game?
Me: "sry, I didn't know that was even a thing"
Him: "thats the minimum you should know"
Later proceeds to call me noob and I left.
2- 2v2 game goes on the map "trois ponts". He goes to the cemetery, I take on the other side of the river. Mid-game, out of the blue he drops this:
Him:"Awesome support, wp"
Me, sensing sarcasm:"lol. I'm trying my best"
Him: "You didn't help me once"
And then goes on a long rant how the game is lost now, and how its my fault, at which point I left.
Now before playing coh2 I was playing sc2, up until diamond. As games were 1v1 I didn't find that problem at all, and even when opponents were flustered they didn't tend to go on long rants. Generally a "l2p noob" before leaving and that was that.
In coh I find that problem disturbing because the way I'm spoken to does not allow me to be a better player. I understand I have a lot to learn and don't care if I'm the target of some hatred in the process. I know the feeling when I'm the most experienced on the team. But how on earth are we supposed to win when you give me 0 tips on how to be a better player and instead make rude remarks?
Is there a guide somewhere of things I'm supposed to know before playing multiplayer or what? Shouldn't experienced players accept the fact that they are going to be paired with less experienced ones?
Am I the only one who thinks that he's an unsufferable Marty Stu in this game? They painted him so cool and perfect that it gets annoying REALLY fast.
(And I love the real world counterpart)
There are shitty bastards in this world who really deserve to get theirs, that's why subs like r/PettyRevenge and r/ProRevenge are a thing.
I hate the sanctimonious air of superiority of those who preach platitudes like "why go through such effort just to hurt someone", "the best revenge is living well", "move on don't live in the past" etc. Like, shut up.
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Here's the background. My father got in ground floor of a business and worked his way up to a low level executive position. My mother is eight years younger than my father and her income was substantially more modest. I have twin brothers two years older than I. One has a physical disability that required a huge amount of surgery and medical attention when he was younger. So at the time my mother briefly stopped working to care for us. When I started kindergarten, she started working a part time secretarial position in my school district, which afforded her the same hours as her kids and much of the same school year schedule.
Just before my brothers left for college, she accepted a much better paying job in the school district, which was full time. The next year, my fathers department was downsized and he was laid off. He managed to get another job in the same company, less status and much less pay.
After I left for college, my parents moved into a house which was set up with an attached apartment. My grandmother moved into the apartment, (a much better situation than a nursing home). She lived there until she died four years ago.
Meanwhile, about eight years ago, my father was laid off again, and again managed to get another job in the company. His salary by this point was less than a third of his "executive" salary. My mom on the other hand was hired out to another company and is earning substantially more than my father has for the past two decades.
Last year, I decided to go for my masters degree online. I was looking for dog friendly housing in my hometown, and my parents were looking for a new tenant for their apartment (they had some bad ones). I moved in, paying the same rent and utilities as the previous tenant. I work full time.
Over the summer, dad was basically given the choice of early retirement or being fired. When he turns 67, he will start social security and pension, but has no income. He basically
