My friends and I have essentially been closed out of playing competitive on the OCE region tonight because of a single thrower. We're not the only ones - I've received warnings from others not to play because of this one guy.

OCE already has a pretty small player pool, so a single dedicated thrower can basically kill competitive for an entire bracket for however long he decides to throw. This dude has been throwing for hours - at least five or six. After getting him for three games, we took a couple hours' break to avoid him, came back, and he was still playing (and still on our team, yay). The entire server is talking about him, everyone recognises him in the games he's in, everyone's

It's a feta, sundried tomato, and capsicum quiche. I'm usually happy just guesstimating, but this is from the canteen at work so I'd be eating it every day if it's reasonable (and I'm worried it could be one of those things that are way more calories than you'd expect).

600mL water for scale. My estimate is 350~ calories. Thanks so much for any help!

I've definitely had too many moments where I've guesstimated a food in my head, gone to add it later to MyFitnessPal, and had a "u fking wot" moment. It's happened less and less to me as I've tracked my calories throughout the years, but I still get the occasional twist ending.

The other day, I had a chicken pesto panini. I guess I assumed some chicken + pesto + sundried tomato + panini = not great, but not too bad? Nope. Try 600 - 700 odd calories. Dinner that night was very scant.

edit: also NUTS WTF ALMONDS???!?!

Hi there! I've just taken up boxing two months ago. I love it, and am eager to do as best as I can. I'm doing the classes with a friend, who did boxing for about three years before dropping it for a couple of years.

I also do extra informal classes at this friend's place, who is doing padwork with me and teaching me the fundamentals of boxing techniques (footwork, etc). He's suggested a "practice spar" soon.

He's a 6'3, 270lb male, I'm a 5'6, 125lb female. I obviously know that in a real spar, he'd flog me, but I'd love to read any suggestions for doing as best as I can in a practice spar situation (he'll be going slow and not connecting his hits hard) and maybe surprising him/catching h

I'll unpack the title a little:

My friend, Phillip, has a deep and kind of breathy voice (think Kevin from The Office, although not as... slow). On his headset mic, he sounds the same as he does irl.

His brother, Edgar, has a higher pitched (compared to Phillip) and smoother voice. He sounds nothing like his brother. Like Phillip, he sounds the same on mic as in irl.

When Phillip had to use Edgar's computer for a few days recently, he sounded exactly like Edgar. Everyone who joined our Discord assumed he was Edgar. It took a lot to convince people otherwise, and was a total mindfuck.

Similarly, I'm a girl with a medium pitch voice (neither low nor high). I hopped on Phillip's comput

I am extremely sedentary. Lab/office worker, couch-based hobbies. I haven't played a sport or done any level of physical exercise in 10+ years. If it helps, stats are 168cm, 60kg (5'6", 130~lb) and I'm 27.

I'm eager to improve my fitness and health, and have taken up boxing. The problem is, the one boxing class I take a week completely debilitates me for the next four or five days. I can barely walk for two days after. I'm still sitting here four days after my last class with a heatpack wrapped around my neck.

The other problem is, I don't even do all the activities at boxing! When we do circuits (running laps), I get a stitch very quickly and exit early (maybe completing 30% of the circ

Until now, I've been using a machine that was mediocre even in 2012. I'm finally trying to upgrade to an actual decent machine - doesn't need to be a beast, but should hopefully be good. I'm going to use it mostly for gaming, e.g. Overwatch/Destiny 2/Anthem. I'd like to run them pretty well, as PC gaming is how I spend a lot of my time.

I'm based in Australia so partpicker isn't useful to me (will need to buy locally because of delivery constraints). Budget was less than $1200, but starting to think that's not reasonable.

What I have so far:

CPU

Intel Core i7 7700K Quad Core

• $478

MOBO

[Asus Prime B250M-A Gaming LGA 1151

This has been surprisingly hard to find! I just want a basic velvet skater dress with 3/4 length or long sleeves, and preferably not a high neck.

Like this or this

Crushed velvet is preferable, but I don't really mind at this point. Everything I've been able to find either won't deliver to Australia, or stopped selling long ago.

Location: Australia (but happy to do int'l shipping)

Size: 8 AU/UK, 4 US

Desired price range: Under $100

I still feel super dumb. I'm terrified of the questions my panel is going to ask me. I somehow spent four years conducting studies, publishing, and writing a 300 page thesis on the topic, and still don't even know what I don't know.

'Letting You In' by Mid Ayr strongly reminds me of a song from the 90s or early 2000s - maybe something by Nirvana or System of a Down? I especially hear it starting at 01.05:

Not accusing it of copying - I'm absolutely in love with the song and am hoping to find what it reminds me of, 'cause I like the sound.

Did anyone else notice?

[Spoiler](#s "When Maeve delivered her, "I'll kill you" line to Sylvester, there was that trill from the Westworld movie that you hear when the Gunslinger bot was on the hunt.")

Not sure how to describe it, but it's the strange shuddering sound. You can hear it in the first few seconds of this.

Competitive, Anubis, mid-Diamond SR. I'm in a group with two friends. The other three on our team are pubs, all friendly enough - except for the Mei. We'll call him Wall Licker, or Wally for short.

Wally took great umbrage to me committing the grievous crime of using voice chat while being female. Throughout the game, any time I made a call:

"Go to bed, little girl."

"Stop pretending you can play with the men."

"It's past your bedtime, little girl."

Still, we were winning - we had the enemy team dead to rights. We just needed to hold Point A for one minute. Then, Wally, in all his infinite wisdom, walks past the choke in the hope of getting off a wall that would at best mildly inconven
