2023.06.08 07:54 Sad_Ad_4657 AITA: I started playing killer and survivors are toxic so I return the energy

AITA for the returning the toxicity to toxic survivors. Most of the games I play I’ve noticed people absolutely love to t bag relentlessly when they pallet stun, camp pallets, or just about anything. I’m honestly perfectly okay with this, I’ve started to rebel against those certain types of survivors. If someone is showing obvious bm, it goes one of two ways. I hook them, then face camp, and punching bag them. Or, I slug them and stand over their body the entire game knocking them every time they get back up. Please keep in mind I only do this to the nasty toxic ones, I’m extremely nice and will usually let hard working, nice survivors go. I know I’m not being the bigger person by doing this, but I always feel some sense of sweet Justice when I do it lol, AITA

The images used are intended as visual references only; the actual game may look different as the builds are continually developed and refined before release.

Tactical Gear

We're turning Tactical Gear into essential items by bestowing them a new purpose, enhancing their significance beyond consumable options. Experience the game in a multitude of ways with this update, whether playing individually or as part of a team. From beginners to veterans, the renewed Tactical Gear can foster a sense of achievement among all players by enabling them to contribute to the success of their squad.

※ This update applies to only Normal Matches, Intense Battle Royale mode, and Custom Matches (Normal Match, Intense Battle Royale).
  • Players will be equipped with a Tactical Gear Carrierin their Inventory at the start of each match.
    • To ensure the Carrier does not hinder initial game progress after landing, we've set the Tactical Gear Carrier weight to 0.
  • Open the Carrier to select your desired Tactical Gear from all available options - EMT Gear, Tactical Pack, Spotter Scope, Drone, Blue Chip Detector, or the Repair Kit.
    • The Carrier cannot be opened when you're in a vehicle or on top of static transport features such as trains and ships.
  • The selected Tactical Gear will be fitted into a dedicated sixth slot reserved for Tactical Gear.
  • Once equipped, the Tactical Gear cannot be removed.
  • Tactical Gear nor the Carrier will not be dropped when a player dies.
    • Upon a player's death the Tactical GeaTactical Gear Carrier are removed.
  • Players recalled to the match will not be provided a new Tactical Gear Carrier.
  • All world-spawned Tactical Gear has been removed.
  • Radio Message
    • Can be used to relay information about the selected Tactical Gear of team members.
    • Upon equipping a Tactical Gear, a Radio Message is triggered for notification.
      • "Equipping (Tactical Gear)".
  • Training Mode
    • Players can remove Tactical Gear from their sixth Inventory slot in Training Mode only to allow for more diverse practice.
    • Both Tactical Gear and the Tactical Gear Carrier are provided via the Training Helper.
We also strive to maintain the fundamental system of Tactical Gear while rebalancing their overall stats this update as Tactical Gear have changed to a basic, required item for all:

EMT Gear

To primarily serve the purpose of team healing rather than self-healing, the healing feature will only apply to team members. Additionally, to balance the overly beneficial healing effects when using heal items, the usage time of heal items has been adjusted to the following:
  • Med Kit usage time: 3 seconds → 7 seconds.
  • First Aid Kit usage time: 3 seconds → 5 seconds.
  • In addition, the revival speed of teammates has been changed from 3 seconds → 8 seconds to prevent overly quick recoveries in tense scenarios.
  • Using Energy Drinks or Painkillers will now provide a 50% additional effect.
    • This boost will only be for personal use and does not apply to teammates.

Tactical Pack

  • Attachment slots decreased from 4 slots → 2 slots.
  • We wish to give the Tactical Pack a similar feel to a Level 4 Backpack. Therefore, the reduction of slots is aimed at moderating the possession of individual items such as firearms (excluding stackable items).

Spotter Scope

Improved for more straightforward and less time-consuming use.
  • Its magnification capabilities are now adjustable from 4x to 8x, allowing for more detailed observations.
  • The creation of the white passive marker is removed. The red active marker will be automatically created and maintained for 7 seconds after a scan.
  • The standard Screen Pings can also be placed while using the Spotter Scope.

Drone

  • Maximum range has been reduced from 300m → 200m.

Blue Chip Detector

The Blue Chip Detector has been perceived as an overperforming gear. Therefore, it has been decided to receive several adjustments to harmonize it with other Tactical Gear.
  • Screen update frequency: 5 seconds → 8 seconds.
  • Enemy scan radius: 100m → 50m.
  • Players who are equipped with a Jammer Pack are undetectable with the Blue Chip Detector.
< Dev Comment >
Following the initial introduction of Tactical Gear, we have observed their considerable utility in gameplay. However, we also understand the magnitude of the decision players are faced with in sacrificing a primary weapon slot for Tactical Gear, particularly in battle scenarios where mid-to-long range combat is crucial. As such, with the renewal of the Tactical Gear system, we eagerly anticipate witnessing our players' varied gameplay strategies!
For example, for solo play, we look forward to see players utilizing a strategy centered around their chosen Tactical Gear, which you'd select to complement your primary weapon. You may opt for a slow-burn approach with the EMT Gear, spending more time looting and gradually entering the Safe Zone. The Drone and Blue Chip Detector can help with a strategy that involves quick penetration of the center area, swiftly identifying incoming enemies. And the Tactical Pack could suit those favoring weapons with high ammo consumption. As for the Spotter Scope, it may be ideal for players selecting weapons aimed at precise long-distance engagement.
As for team play, we anticipate strategic looting that aligns with team dynamics while avoiding overlapping roles. Each teammate would have a distinct role, contributing effectively to the team's primary goal. Utilize the Drone and Spotter Scope for ordering and coordination. Or the Spotter Scope could enhance accuracy for those sharpshooters. The EMT Gear and Tactical Pack may also be helpful to novice players, so they could actively contribute to team survival, or even the Blue Chip Detector for optimal information delivery.
With this change, we are also committed to implementing constraints that are proportional to in-game performance - we do not aim to unfairly boost the abilities of already-skilled players. With this in mind, we've made it so that once a Tactical Gear is selected, it becomes irreplaceable. Players are required to use their chosen equipment consistently throughout the match. We have also proceeded with an overall balance update.

Items

Tactical Gear - Repair Kit

The current Helmet/Armor Repair Kits and Mechanic's Toolbox seemed to have limited applications in specific circumstances - therefore, we're merging them into a single versatile Repair Kit that can repair Helmets, Vests, and vehicles. With this multipurpose tool, you can now consider the possibility of pursuing the role of your team's go-to mechanic.

※ This update applies to only Normal Matches, Intense Battle Royale mode, and Custom Matches (Normal Match, Intense Battle Royale).
  • The Repair Kit is no longer a consumable, and is now a part of Tactical Gear that can be equipped to your Tactical Gear slot.
    • Once equipped, it cannot be replaced or removed until the match concludes.
  • The Repair Kit can be utilized up to 10 times.
  • You can use the Repair Kit via the Limited Interact key.
  • A single use on a Helmet or Vestwill restore its durability to 100 in 6 seconds.
    • You can repair not just your own Helmet/Vest, but those equipped by your teammates or those found lying on the floor.
  • A single use on a vehicle restores 500 durability in 8 seconds.
    • You are only able to repair a vehicle that can be interacted with.
  • The repair process will be canceled under the following circumstances:
    • If the character carrying out the repair, or the subject undergoing the repair, moves using the movement keys.
    • Once the preceding repair of the same Helmet/Vest/vehicle is complete.
    • If another player picks up the Helmet/Vest from the ground during the repair.
  • New feature: Removing and installing tires
    • When the Repair Kit is equipped, you can use the Limited Interact Key to remove tires from any vehicle.
      • Tires that have burst with 0 durability cannot be removed.
      • Interacting with a vehicle will display the remaining durability of the tire.
    • Removing a tire requires a certain amount of time.
    • Successful removal causes the tire to drop to the ground.
      • Tires weigh 20 each.
      • Tires will go to your Inventory's fourth melee weapon slot.
      • You cannot remove or install tires to the BRDM, Boat, Aquarail, Mountain Bike, Motor Glider, Airboat, or Snowmobile.
    • Any player can install removed tires on a vehicle, even without a Repair Kit.
      • Upon approaching a vehicle without a tire, tire installation requires a certain amount of time.
    • The removal/installation process will be canceled under the following circumstances:
      • If the vehicle is driven during the installation process.
      • If the position of the vehicle changes due to a collision or other during the installation process.
      • If another tire on the vehicle during tire removal receives damage.
  • The existing Helmet/Armor Repair Kits and Mechanic's Toolbox have been removed

Emergency Pickup, BZ Grenade, Jammer Pack, Mortar, and Panzerfaust
  • Will now world spawn in all 8x8 maps.
  • This applies to Normal, Ranked, and Custom Matches (including Esports mode).
  • The spawn rate of the Emergency Pickup in both Normal Match and Ranked on Erangel and Miramar maps has been reduced by 30%.

World - Vikendi

After the Vikendi Reborn update last year, we've diligently monitored player trends and incorporated your valuable feedback into the latest update.

Terrain

  • We have tactically upgraded those locations - excluding major cities - that, according to live data, have proven to be the most unfeasible for engagement or where cover was particularly scarce by adding new objects and ridgelines, offering more opportunities for strategic cover.
https://preview.redd.it/sdivq8e8gq4b1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=3ea91777da3eb8d64cdbf6ee52d18cbd753535b5

Phase

  • The initiative Blue Zone ruleset similar as Ranked's for Normal Matches introduced back in Update #23.1 has been applied to Vikendi, effectively reducing the overall playtime.

Item spawn

  • Vikendi's Normal Matches typically feature an array of special item spawn spots, leading to an excess of high-value items. To prevent disproportionate looting of these items, we've recalibrated the balance. The spawn rates of high-value weapons and items have been scaled down to also mitigate the disparity in the play experience with Ranked matches.
  • Lab Camp
    • The probability of finding lucky Supply Drops (holding Care Package weapons) have been boosted.
      • However, a marginal downgrade has been made in the quality of items.
      • A significant reduction has been made in the appearance rate of Care Package weapons and Level 3 equipment.
    • Critical Response Kits will now exclusively appear in Lab Camps, with an increased spawn rate.
  • Caves
    • The quantity and quality of items discoverable in caves' Supply Drops have been downgraded.
      • A significant reduction has been made in the appearance rate of Care Package weapons and Level 3 equipment.
      • 8x Scopes, Critical Response Kits, and C4 have been removed from caves' Supply Drops.
  • Secret Room
    • Acquisition of the Self-AED is now restricted to Secret Rooms, except for the rare chance of looting it as a world spawn item.
  • The Thermal 4x Scope will now only be available as a world spawn item, in Care Packages, and caves' Supply Drops. It has been removed from Lab Camp and Secret Rooms.
  • The following changes have also been made to align with the ruleset of other maps.
    • ARs, SMGs, Handguns, Crossbows, Grenades, Smoke Grenades, Stun Grenades, and First Aid Kits will spawn slightly more.
    • SRs, LMGs, Backpack (Level 1), Molotovs, BZ Grenades, C4, Emergency Pickups, Bandages, Med Kits, and Adrenaline Syringes will spawn slightly less.

Vehicle spawn

  • In terms of transportation, we noted that vehicle usage in Vikendi was lower compared to other maps, so we've amplified vehicle spawn spots and appropriately adjusted existing spawn locations.

Blizzard Zone

  • The duration of the Blizzard Zone has been increased by approximately 70%.
  • The number of snowstorms appearing in a Blizzard Zone has increased.
  • The distance between snowstorms has decreased.
  • The phases when Blizzard Zones occur during a match have been adjusted.

Cable Car

  • Player feedback concerning the rather sluggish speed of Vikendi's Cable Cars was noted, leading to a significant speed enhancement. This adjustment now allows for better encounters during transit, with an overall speed increase of 80%.

Comeback BR

  • Map
    • We have improved player's vulnerability by relocating existing objects to the back.
    • Item spawn spots have been added near player spawn locations for an optimized start.
    • Made containers more accessible by repositioning some containers and adding wooden pallets.
  • Combat time
    • Reduced combat time from 160 seconds to 100 seconds.
    • The Play Area restriction time has been adjusted to accommodate the reduced combat time.
  • The multidrops will descend earlier.
  • To prevent the decreasing survival rate as the number of participants increases during the later phases of Comeback BR, each size of the final Play Area for each phase has been adjusted.
  • The UI notifications for Comeback BR have improved.

Crowbar Interaction

  • Increased spawn rate for cabinets.
  • A storage unit specifically designed for Crowbars has been added to garages that are accessible with a Crowbar. This storage unit has a high probability of containing a Crowbar.
  • Simultaneously, we've slightly diminished the appearance rate for Secret Room Security Keys.
    • However, we've increased the spawn rates for items such as healing items and throwables.

Sound

  • Reduced the volume of wind turbines by 40%, along with the audible range.

Minimap

  • Minimap has been updated to mirror the above changes.

Ranked - Season 24


  • The Jammer Pack, Mortar, Panzerfaust, BZ Grenade, and Emergency Pickup have been added to every map.
  • Vikendi has been added to the map pool with a 10% matchmaking probability.
    • Number of players: 64
    • Weather: Sunny
    • The Blizzard Zone, Lab Camp, Crowbar interaction feature and cabinets, Cable Cars, bears, and Supply Drops are available.

2023.06.08 07:50 Froggymushroom22 Should I (22f) text him back (idk how old he is)

So I went on a date with this guy a few weeks ago and it was pretty fun. I’ve been on a lot of dates lately (and been rejected a lot lately) and so far he was my favorite date. He asked me out on another date and I said sure and asked what he had in mind. He took like a week to respond and said we’ll make cookies. I said sounds good. He never responded so I messaged again asking if he still wanted to go out. He took a couple days, said he was camping but yet. I said cool, and then he took ANOTHER week to respond.
I have not responded to that message yet and I am a bit annoyed, but also conflicted. He’s definitely out of the running to be a boyfriend, but I don’t want a boyfriend right now. I’m just wanting to go on fun dates. And he was fun. Idk if it would be dumb to message him or if there’s something I should say. Idk. This is a whole new type of dating for me and I don’t completely know how to do it.

2023.06.08 07:50 pwa09 What are some experiences you realized most kids had as a child but you didn’t get to experience because of being black and how your family lived growing up?

We never went camping, we never took family vacations, we never owned a house, never got to do club sports or activities, didn’t know what Brussel sprouts and persimmons were until I was an adult, and it was completely normal for my mom to smoke cigarettes in my vicinity for years.
When I grew up and started meeting people, through school, work, meeting other parents etc, I realized my family was just poor and although we had a lot of good memories as kids, I went through a lot of traumatic events, like moving often, starting new schools every other year, not getting the chance to play sports/activities outside of school, like weekend soccer, swim lessons, summer camps, etc. we never went on a family vacation. Never learned how to camp. I don’t even think I’ve ever seen my dad hold a drill.
What are some things you missed out on?

I’m 26 weeks pregnant but I’m already planning out the baby’s life. I’m planning to enroll my baby in a Montessori daycare. She’s going to start swimming classes at 6 months. My local library provides story time ages 0-3 so I’ll definitely take my baby there. Soccer classes near me start at 18 months. It seems like most summer camps near me start at 6/7 years old so I’ll wait till my child is of age in order to attend. What other activities can I put my baby in? I’m a FTM so still figuring everything out. I’m a planner and prefer to be proactive. I was proactive about signing up for the waitlists for daycares - still on the long end of the wait list & I applied when I was 2 months pregnant. 🥲 I was thinking of gymnastics or ballet but will gymnastics affect how her body will grow and will ballet hurt/injure her feet in the long run? Im new to this. I haven’t done any of these activities when I was a child so I have no clue. I was sheltered from everything. What have you done with your LO and what was your experience like?

Looking to farm better quality relic pieces, so I've been camping in the regions for fragments and the odd piece drop. Are there specific mobs that have the fragments/Pieces, or higher chances, in their drop table?

2023.06.08 07:44 wesrc16 Harassed by a Mojave desert dweller

My gf and I stopped at camp Ibis on BLM land in the Mojave desert last week. We were planning on staying for a night as we continued on our road trip. We were pretty deep in no-man’s land in the middle of the desert. As soon as we unpacked we saw a hobo desert dweller walking off in the distance. This was a surprise to us because we were far from any town and we didn’t see any other cars and definitely no houses. He started to walk towards us and started hollering at us, saying he lives out here by himself and we basically were not welcome. Along with a bunch of other nonsense. He seemed very disgruntled and mentally unwell, he was not happy we were there. I guess the desert heat will do that to you. We got super sketchy vibes, so we packed up and left. We also heard that vans down the highway some miles got broken into. This is just a heads up if your planning on staying in the Mojave desert anytime, be careful, there’s definitely some sketchy people out there.

2023.06.08 07:41 turing0623 Summer Slasher books

Hey guys with the summer fast approaching in the northern hemisphere I was wanting to read books that have a strong summer slasher vibe. Something akin to movies/ TV shows like Scream (1996), Fearstreet, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, AHS 1984, or Sleepaway Camp. I’m a sucker for the horror genre and especially love stories set in summer camps, suburbs, or anything related.
I’m open to all genres that incorporate this theme (horror, comedy, mystery, etc.) so long as they take place in the summer and have a slasher element to it.
The only book that I have read somewhat similar to this vibe is Gone to See the River Man by Christopher Triana but I was wanting something that was a little less serious in tone. If that makes sense.
Thank you so much in advance! :)

Liv Pure Weight Loss Reviews Reddit : ⚠️Scam?⚠️Must Read! Before Buy - Does Liv Pure Weight Loss Work ?

Liv Pure is a nutritional supplement based on a weight loss remedy from an island in the Mediterranean.
Liv Pure Weight Loss Reviews Reddit
Developed by a 49-year old firefighter who wanted to help his wife lose weight, Liv Pure features a blend of ingredients to target the root cause of weight problems: toxins in your liver.
Find out how Liv Pure works and whether the supplement lives up to the hype today in our review.

How Does Liv Pure Work?

Liv Pure uses a blend of natural ingredients to support your liver. Your liver is the largest internal organ. To lose weight, your liver needs to cleanse fat from your body. If your liver isn’t performing optimally, then you’ll struggle to lose weight. Your body can’t detoxify itself.
To help, Liv Pure uses a blend of ingredients known to support the liver. Those ingredients target the liver and weight loss via two specific processes:
Activate your liver’s fat burning complex to ignite your metabolism and create primitive fat burning.
Target body purifying cells to help your liver purify itself, increasing your ability to burn fat naturally.
Together, these two effects make Liv Pure an effective weight loss supplement. In fact, some claim to have lost 50 to 100lbs using the formula.

Liv Pure Features & Benefits

Some of the benefits of taking Liv Pure, according to the official website, include:

  • Target the root cause of belly fat and weight gain
  • Support your liver’s natural detoxification
  • Science-backed ingredients used by 234,000+ men and women worldwide
  • Plant-based, natural formula sourced from an island in the Mediterranean
  • Boost metabolism to ignite the fat burning furnace within yourself
  • Works whether you want to lose 10lbs or 100lbs or more

Who Created Liv Pure?

Liv Pure was created by two people, including a Greek doctor and a 49-year old firefighter:
Dr. Nicholas Andino, an internal medicine doctor who grew up in a village near the Greek island of Corfu
Dan Saunders, a 49-year old firefighter from Sarasota, Florida who wanted to help his wife lose weight
The two met in an unlikely way. After Dan’s wife suffered a heart attack because of her weight, Dan started to research natural ways to lose weight. Nothing else had helped his wife, so he turned to the natural world for support.
Dan’s research led him to the work of Dr. Nicholas Andino. He liked what he read online, so he setup an in-person meeting with Dr. Andino to discuss specific treatment options. Dr. Andino met with Dan, revealed the recipe to Liv Pure, and the rest is history.

Liv Pure Helps Regenerate Your Liver

Dr. Nicholas Andino, using his expertise as a doctor in internal medicine, developed Liv Pure to regenerate your liver.
Dr. Andino’s research revealed a critical connection between liver health and weight loss. Many overweight people had toxin-filled livers.
However, Dr. Andino also found many healthy people had toxin-filled livers causing them to gain weight. These people, over time, had absorbed toxins from the environment, overloading their livers. As they grew older, they gained more and more weight, eventually leading to obesity.
Dr. Andino found people with an overloaded liver struggled to lose weight – even if they ate right and exercised. They were doing everything right, but their liver was so overloaded with toxins that it couldn’t burn fat from the body.
Dr. Andino’s research did, however, reveal some good news: the liver can fully regenerate itself. You can regenerate liver cells even if your liver is damaged.
To help regenerate the liver, Dr. Andino gathered a group of ingredients from Greek islands near where he grew up. These ingredients were specifically designed to help the liver.
Today, many of those ingredients are found in Liv Pure, which is designed to support liver health, detoxify the live, and help you rapidly lose weight.

What’s in Liv Pure?

Liv Pure contains 10 active ingredients. Half of the ingredients are designed to support your liver, while the other half support fat burning.
Here are all of the active ingredients in Liv Pure and how they work, according to the official website:

Liver Fat Burning Complex

Half of the ingredients in Liv Pure are part of the Liver Fat Burning Complex. These ingredients were specifically chosen to help you burn fat and lose weight. Some activate your metabolism, while others target inflammation making it harder to lose weight. Together, these ingredients can prepare your body for greater weight loss results.

Active ingredients in Liv Pure’s Liver Fat Burning Complex include:


  • Tea: Tea, labeled as camellia sinensis, is prized in traditional remedies and weight loss aids. Many people drink tea daily for its natural antioxidants, or polyphenols. Liv Pure doesn’t disclose the specific type of tea in the formula. However, black tea, oolong tea, and green tea are particularly rich with polyphenols, making them popular weight loss aids. Tea also contains a small amount of natural caffeine, and caffeine is one of the most proven weight loss supplement ingredients in the world.

  • Genistein: Genistein is a natural molecule linked to fat burning and anti-inflammatory effects, according to Dr. Andino and his team. It’s a flavonoid, or natural antioxidant, found in soy beans, fava beans, and certain other types of vegetables. You can buy genistein in supplement form on its own. However, it’s part of a blend of ingredients in Liv Pure designed to help with inflammation and weight loss.

  • Choline: Choline is best-known for its effects on the brain, and many people take choline daily for mental performance. Naturally found in eggs, choline can also help with fat burning, according to the official Liv Pure website.

  • Resveratrol: Resveratrol is a natural ingredient found in grapes. Like other ingredients in the Liver Fat Burning Complex in Liv Pure, resveratrol can support inflammation throughout the body, which could make it easier to lose weight. Multiple studies have linked resveratrol to metabolism, fat burning, anti-inflammatory effects, and other ingredients. Like genistein, resveratrol can be taken on its own or as part of a blend.

  • Chlorogenic Acid: Chlorogenic acid is best-known for being the active ingredient in green coffee bean extract. Before coffee beans are roasted, they’re green and contain high levels of chlorogenic acid, a natural antioxidant. 99% of this chlorogenic acid is lost during roasting. Using green coffee beans, you can support inflammation and unlock fat burning throughout your body. Many weight loss supplements contain tea and chlorogenic acid as a complementary combination, and Liv Pure is no exception.

Liver Purification Complex

The supplement is called Liv Pure because it’s designed to help purify your liver. Over time, toxins infiltrate your liver, leading to low energy, weight gain, and general health and wellness issues. Liv Pure’s Liver Purification Complex aims to help using a blend of five active ingredients. These ingredients work to complement the five ingredients above. By cleansing and purifying your liver, you can prepare for greater weight loss results.

The five active liver purifying ingredients in Liv Pure include:

  • Silymarin: Silymarin comes from milk thistle extract, a plant used in traditional medicine for centuries. For years, healers used milk thistle extract for general ailments. Today, we know the power of the milk thistle plant is linked to its natural chemicals like silymarin, which has been shown to support liver detoxification and liver cell regeneration.

  • Betaine: Betaine comes from beetroot extract and certain other natural sources. Some people take beetroot daily for liver health. Others take it regularly for detoxification, weight loss, blood flow, and overall inflammation. The betaine in Liv Pure can help reverse damage to your liver caused by inflammation, according to the official Liv Pure website.

  • Berberine: Berberine is known for its effects on blood sugar and liver health. Your liver cleanses your blood, and poor liver health can lead to poor blood health. By taking berberine daily, you can help fight disease and inflammation, tackling some of the root causes of weight issues.

  • Molybdenum: Molybdenum is a mineral linked to liver detoxification. The mineral isn’t as common as other ingredients in Liv Pure, but it can purportedly help detoxify your body. Every day, your body is exposed to toxins in the water, food, and air. Molybdenum can support your body’s largest internal cleansing organ: your liver.

  • Glutathione: Glutathione is a natural antioxidant linked to liver regeneration and gut health. Some people take glutathione for leaky gut. Others take it to support the natural regeneration of liver cells. Your liver is one of the few organs in the body that can regenerate itself even after severe damage, and the glutathione in Liv Pure can help.

How Much Does Liv Pure Cost?

Liv Pure is normally priced at $199 per bottle on retail shelves. However, Dan and Dr. Andino have temporarily reduced the price of Liv Pure to $69 per bottle or less as part of a summer 2023 promotion.

Liv Pure Weight Loss Results: Customer Reviews & Testimonials

Liv Pure’s website is filled with stories of customers losing significant weight shortly after taking Liv Pure for the first time – even while exercising minimally and avoiding strict diet rules.

In fact, Paula Saunders, the 51-year old mother whose husband helped develop the formula, personally claims to have lost 63lbs using Liv Pure alone.
Here are some of the reviews, weight loss testimonials, and experiences shared by verified Liv Pure users:
Paula Saunders, a 51-year old mother of three, lost 63 pounds “suddenly” after taking Liv Pure for the first time. Paula had struggled with weight gain after giving birth to three kids, and nothing seemed to keep it off. She tried Liv Pure and began to rapidly lose weight.

Liv Pure Clinical Trials & Scientific Evidence

Liv Pure was developed by a doctor, giving the supplement additional medical verification beyond the average weight loss formula. Dr. Andino, according to the official Liv Pure website, is an internal medicine doctor who grew up in Greece. He developed Liv Pure with a blend of science-backed ingredients from his native country. We’ll review some of Dr. Andino’s research and citations below.
Dr. Andino cites just three references on the official Liv Pure website. Those three studies include:
The first study is a 2004 study on metabolic flexibility. The study shows some people become metabolically inflexible over time. Their pancreas stops secreting the right compounds, for example, for weight loss and appetite control.
The second cited study, from 2018, also covers metabolic flexibility. The study showed metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and cancer can disrupt your metabolic flexibility, making it harder for your body to manage its weight, appetite, and energy.
Dr. Andino cites a final study on metabolic flexibility’s role in health and disease. Researchers in that study identified metabolic flexibility as one of the factors impacting diabetes and obesity.
Outside of these three cited studies, Dr. Andino does not supply any research proving Liv Pure can help you lose 10 to 100lbs or more. However, many of the ingredients in the supplement are backed by their own scientific evidence.
If the primary goal of Liv Pure is to support your liver, then Liv Pure contains the right ingredient: silymarin. Silymarin is a natural chemical from milk thistle extract, a type of plant sued in traditional medicine for centuries. Hundreds of studies have connected silymarin to liver health. A 2020 study, for example, found silymarin appeared to reduce inflammation in the liver. Inflammation in the liver is associated with a higher risk of disease and illness, and it could make it harder to lose weight.
Liv Pure also contains another antioxidant compound that could help with inflammation: resveratrol. Found in many anti-aging supplements and formulas, resveratrol is a natural compound in grapes. A recent study found resveratrol was associated with significant reductions in weight, BMI, waist circumference, fat mass, and lean mass compared to placebo treatments.
Finally, many studies have connected tea to weight loss. Greece isn’t known for its tea, yet Dr. Andino added tea to the formula for its polyphenol content. Tea is rich with polyphenols, or natural antioxidants, that could help with inflammation, cholesterol, weight loss, and overall health and wellness.
Overall, the ingredients in Liv Pure could help with weight loss when combined with a healthy diet and exercise program. Plus, the formula has been validated by a doctor – an internal medicine specialist – to help with weight loss.

Contact Liv Pure

Dr. Andino and Dan Saunders teamed up with a US-based supplement company to launch the supplement across the country. That company manufactures all supplements in an FDA-registered facility that complies with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards.

Conclusion

Liv Pure is a doctor-formulated weight loss supplement featuring a blend of milk thistle extract, tea, and other natural ingredients to help you burn fat rapidly.
By taking two capsules of Liv Pure daily, you can target a toxin-filled liver, which is the root cause of weight problems. Many people struggle to lose weight because of their liver, and Liv Pure aims to help.

2023.06.08 07:37 Jacques_Ellul 'Being nonreligious involves more than intelligence, knowledge, practicality, method. It calls for virtue, heroism, greatness of soul. Many have known great atheists, genuinely strict ones, who didn't deceive themselves about a god. For them, atheism was an honor, the highest form of human courage'

They maintained those heights only by a constantly renewed act of the will, stretched to the limit against every suffering, and finally death. This is no easier today. So where do we get the idea that modem man, the average man, he whom we adjudge to be atheistic, indifferent, and irreligious, has achieved those heights? In the routines of a society of comfort, of moral flabbiness, of an absence of willpower, of debasement, what is there to prepare a person for lifting himself to the heights of atheism's rigorous virtue? What readies him for that merciless clarity about himself and about the world, which irreligion always involves? Where do we see the spiritual greatness, the morale, the quality of exactitude, the rigor on which criticism of myth and the rejection of the sacred are always based? The scientific method and a smug materialism are not enough! It takes men who are hardheaded with their feet on the ground. I do not see them. Everything points to the opposite. We see people on a bed of ease, and wishing no other happiness for others. They whimper at the slightest danger, the slightest suffering (look at the leftists ! ). Flabby skepticism and exuberant disdain are not enough to produce an adult man and an irreligious society. We can rest assured, to the contrary, that in the current psychological tendencies, in the absence of any character preparation for facing up to great progress and great tests, in the transfer of human energies to the exclusively cerebral, in the collapse of the will in favor of the imagination, in the rejection of all self discipline, the only way of escape is into the social and the religious. Everybody since Bergson has proclaimed the need for a soul-supplement. All right, we have it in the new religions.
I was raised Christian but consciously departed with my faith when I was around 22. Praying at the time 'that I am going to seek the truth whatever that may be and follow where the evidence leads.' I'd go on to read large parts of the bible, 'the lost books,' texts on the Council of Nicaea, Bertrand Russell, Hume, Bakunin, The Celestine Prophecy (it was considered serious at the time, haha) and the like.
16 years later through the same process, I became acquainted with some of empiricisms shadows; which planted the seed that would eventually result in me choosing faith freely, perhaps for the first time in my life (raised into xyz implies coercion imo).
Prior to this completely unexpected reversal, Ellul had always been one of the most influential writers I'd encountered. I was conscious that he typically wrote two books for any topic he sought to analyze: an all encompassing sociological analysis and a theological perspective. I intentionally refrained from the latter as I was well aware of his effects on me and that he was likely to win me over. And I was not ready or willing to find out, knowing that a course would imply actions on my part that I was not prepared to undertake.
I'd read some of his brief accounts of how he conceived 'hell' (that it does not exist) and a few other short essays, mostly in relation to the World Wars. I regarded them then as the most sane and responsible approach to religion I'd ever come across.
I understand he's not exactly a stranger in these parts, for good reason. I've collected a some of his more trenchant observations while making my way through his books. I knew they'd be good. I never expected words like 'great' to understate their value.
Action is simply an expression of a will to dominate which in itself is illimitable, and those who win seldom have the wisdom to impose limits on themselves. It is the word that will indicate the limits in the name of truth, but the word is weak, and this is precisely why it is the servant of truth. All that we can do is keep on repeating that this victorious action makes no sense and that it will perish faster than it triumphed. What has been the good of all the wars of this terrible 20th century? War, as action at its peak, is always futile. What did 1918 achieve? Nothing but wind and storm. What did 1945 achieve? An extension of the gulag and a lot of mediocre talk. What do wars of liberation achieve? Even worse dictatorships and misery beyond anything previously known. But why continue with this balance sheet of action? Elsewhere I have attempted similar analyses of technique or revolution, and I have always concluded: Vanity of vanity, all is vanity and a pursuit of wind

And the extraordinary thing is that according to these texts all powers, all the power and glory of the kingdoms, all that has to do with politics and political authority, belongs to the devil. It has all been given to him and he gives it to whom he wills. Those who hold political power receive it from him and depend upon him. (It is astonishing that in the innumerable theological discussions of the legitimacy of political power, no one has ever adduced these texts! [Matthew 4:8-9; Luke 4:6-7]) This fact is no less important than the fact that Jesus rejects the devil's offer. Jesus does not say to the devil: It is not true. You do not have power over kingdoms and states. He does not dispute this claim. He refuses the offer of power because the devil demands that he should fall down before him. This is the sole point when he says: 'You shall worship the Lord your God and you shall serve him, only him' (Matthew 4:10). We may thus say that among Jesus' immediate followers and in the first Christian generation political authorities - what we call the state - belonged to the devil and those who held power received it from him (The New Demons)

Faith has to come to birth as a free act, not a forced one. Otherwise it has no meaning.

Inescapably, if man sets up a sacred, there is some reason behind it. Yet I always find it hard to believe that, if "primitive" man had a great capacity, a great intelligence as a worker, a speaker, an artist, an organizer, he was afflicted with downright stupidity the moment some other type of expression was involved, such as the religious, the mythical, the sacred, the magical. Such a total break at that point is very improbable. Therefore, I think the sacred must have had a meaning just as real as the fabrication of the first tools. (The New Demons)

2019 Ford Flex with a Salvage Title (got pics). How do I tell if the repairs are good enough?
Hey All,
I used to own a 2017 Ford Flex SEL FWD and took it to 200k miles, I loved it, but it started to have some front end issues so I traded it in for a Tiguan. The Tiguan is ok, but too small for when we got camping and hunting. So I am looking for another Flex that will primarily be a road trip vehicle. I found this 2019 SEL AWD with 46k miles for $19k. Immediately suspicious because this is about $10-15k under other comparable Flexs. Carfax shows a salvaged title for rear end damage, but the next Carfax entry says minor damage. I ran the vin and found pics from bidfax that show rear damage. It looks like the bumper is bent (actual metal as the body is removed), rear left window is broke and there is a spare on the rear left. Oddly I don't see damage to the lift gate or quarter panels, I can't tell what exactly happened, but I would expect a collision to at least deform the quarter panel.
How bad does this damage look to yous? What are the chances that this was completely repaired? What would you do at the dealership to verify this is good to go or would you not even risk it?

Thank you in advance!
Rear bumper bent?

Hey, r4r. It’s almost midnight here and I wouldn’t mind a stranger-chat-friend to keep me company. Please be platonic, 26+, and 420 friendly.
I’m not working, but I am taking some night classes and planning to go to college for a front-end dev cert.
Some of my hobbies include gaming on PC/Switch(although lately all I’ve been semi-playing is modded Witcher 3 next gen), watching seasonal anime(Vinland Saga s2, Oshi no Ko, Hell’s Paradise, Heavenly Delusion, Summertime Render, Bungou Stray Dogs, OG Trigun…), and reading(manga/ fantasy/scifi/nonfic).
Some of my interests include technology, yoga, meditation, journaling, listening to tons of music & other ambient sounds, and camping or being out in the sun in general.
Anyway, I’ll probably post this then head outside with my bong to read your messages. Oh, and here is a fun song!
