    If you go in with that attitude, though, are you there to try to convert people to your side. Or are you only there to berate them and make yourself feel better for having done so?

    That doesn’t mean you put up with bad faith engagement. That doesn’t mean you allow them to burden you with the emotional and mental weight of the argument. That they can watch the consequences without fear of it harming their self is exactly why you need to watch your language. They lose nothing staying where they are, you need to convince them to give up resources (mental, emotional, financial) of their own to take up your position.

    So, don’t put up with bullshit, and you don’t have to be nice about it, but you do have to be patient of your goal is to actually convert people over. Not everyone’s role is to convert people, though, some people are only fighters. Just make sure the fighting is directed in the right places.




  • It sounds like you’re dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety, too, if you’re on a “hair trigger” with your emotions. Some self care and/or therapy may help with some of it, but you sound like you’re on the right track already. Try to be aware of when you feel that way, try to identify why the situation makes you feel that way, ask yourself what you can do in that situation too change anything, and try to view the situation from other perspectives (doesn’t have to be from the perspective of the person making you angry, but can be a stranger viewing the situation from the outside).

    Best of luck to you! And keep in mind that by just wanting to improve yourself in this way, you’re already take a step more than most people!

    During SB a friend and I used to 1-2 man The Vault and Gubul Library as BRD, since they were super short. I imagine you can do the same thing with EW content now. The trick is to grab every extra chest with gear you can, and find something that is short to run. It doesn’t have to be the highest iLvl per item.

    Heck, it might not be a bad idea to run ShBr content just because it would be faster.

    Converting Poetics to GC seals isn’t bad, either, if you aren’t using then for anything else. Running daily roulettes every day fills it up pretty quickly and it’s better than overcapping.





  • I suppose it is in a fashion, but not necessarily. Let’s say you know you have a ancestor that was part of the first expedition to the arctic. The line of ancestor to descendent between that person and you would be the bloodline. Everyone you are related to would be your family tree, but that could be hundreds of people depending on how far back you go, and could be thousands of people if you start looking at everyone descended from that person. But you are only concerned with the direct line of lineage between them and you, and that would be your bloodline.



  • I will add onto this, that you don’t need to be a programmer or understand how everything works to use the terminal. At first, it’s fine to copy the commands directly into the terminal without really knowing how it all works.

    I would very highly suggest to be careful about doing this blindly, you can and will compromise or Bork your system doing this too haphazardly. But it’s fine to learn it piece by piece, looking at what commands do as you go to use them. Treat every command you copy paste into the terminal the same way you would treat a .exe file you download from the internet on Windows.

    As you use the terminal more frequently, you’ll being to recognize different commands and what they do. You’ll even start figuring out shortcuts or variations of commands and variables that align more with how you use the computer and what you’re hoping the output to give you.

    Linux Mint is a great place to play with this, because most everything has a GUI counterpart so you can see the difference between doing the same task with a GUI vs using the terminal. It is also able to live-boot from a USB, as others have pointed out, so you don’t need to worry about ruining your primary computer experience. I’d suggest trying this out before you build your new computer, just to see what it’s like.
