Well, school's out

Not all vets have seen combat, even if they have deployed. But aside from that most of these vets were early 20s that did one enlistment and are fresh out of active, so their life experience up until that point was high school to military to college. Not all of them, but a significant amount. That being said, even at the time I would've found the absurd response funny, except it meant more work for me that week to draft communication on behalf of the office.

I love this story. We have preventive measures in place because of chaos like this. Back in the early 2010s I was doing a VA internship at my college's Veterans Affairs office. We would help other veteran students manage their GI Bill and other VA benefits as well as communicate events for our student vet community. The school used a student veteran distribution list just like this story but for a much smaller group of users.

One day the college's VA office sent out an email that a prominent anti war vet was coming to speak at the college which sparked a lot of controversy apparently with a good portion of the members of that DL. So much so that a reply all chain began and my student email inbox was blowing up from all the outrage. If I remember correctly, the event was ultimately canceled because so many student veterans were complaining.

It's not possible at the moment. Lemmy devs acknowledged it was a widely requested feature but last I read, they were focused on maintaining the performance of Lemmy during the spike of users during the great Reddit migration.

Same, especially when trying to sleep dart Sigma during his ult

  • Primary fire DPS reduced to 55 (was 100)
  • Primary fire slow now ramps from 30% to 50% (was 40%).
  • Primary fire impacts now build up to a slowing effect for 1.5s that slows for 75%.
  • Secondary fire impacts can detonate the 75% slow for an extra 40 damage.

Dev comments: These changes are intended to bring back Mei's old gameplay without introducing the hard CC of a full stun.

I haven't had the chance to play her since the changes yet, but detonating the slow effects with secondary fire while having reduced primary damage just sounds like it will take forever to get kills

On desktop, I made a shortcut to my subscribed communities sorted by new. I did the same with Firefox Android

** not a real question, but wouldn't it be cool to sell it back like unspent PTO ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Pay off all my debt. And take me out to a fancy dinner. Wine and dine me, Spez. Then I'll use reddit again. (I would still use lemmy secretly on the side)

Still rocking my 1070ti. I mostly play overwatch 2 and Minecraft so it works ok for me now. Also I'm broke and can't afford the upgrade.

I'm really into Overwatch 2 now and I didn't see an active community for it, so I made !overwatch2@lemmy.ml . I hope it catches on because I'd like to see more ow2 content on here

I'm resetting windows 10 on my Thinkpad T580 for work but would like to create a partition for linux. It's an older laptop and really chugs through games like Minecraft or RuneScape but I enjoy playing relaxing games while I listen to audiobooks at night. I grew up using windows which is why I've mostly used Ubuntu and ZorinOS in the past but I'd like to expand my horizons to something like kubuntu. I value good UI/UX design and something lightweight for my old potato. Any recommendations on Linux distros?

** Thanks for all the input! I tried Fedora first but it felt kind of clunky to me. Then I tried out Mint xfce and it's right up my alley! I can run a separate Firefox profile right off the task bar that runs outside of my VPN which is perfect for Netflix and other sites that have issues. So far loving how customizable it is. Minecraft runs ok off GDLauncher, and lutris is really cool. I forgot I had a boat load of old GOG games that are perfect for this laptop. I really fucking love Linux ๐Ÿ˜†
