So an army of a thousand twitter bots will cost a thousand dollars a year? That seems shruggable.

It exists. But you will encounter a few issues:

  1. $5 is not very much money in 3rd world countries either. If you want to speak to someone with a doctorate you can expect to pay a little more than that.

  2. health insurance almost certainly won't cover any percentage of a session with a therapist that isn't on their books

  3. tax. A healthcare professional is generally looking after their own books too. So the only way they will bother dealing with Americans is wmthe incentive of earning in dollars anyway

  4. like others have said, culture differences will play a role in the kind of care you will receive.

  5. recommends for a psychiatrist or meds will need a prescription and that won't work across borders. You will need to get referred locally too.

  6. a licensed therapist may not be licensed in your country, or worse, may be a hack or a scammer

But it most certainly exists. I've got a mate that treats people overseas. I believe there's also an app that connects you with someone available too. Betterhelp, Talkspace to name a few.

There was a time in my life when every task or road trip was measured to a timescale of Declines. Morning trip to school? 1.5 Declines.

Sounds like you need to finish BG3 before starting Starfield.

The first one looks natural to me. The second grade looks like a 1st year film school grade where they think the full range has to be used at all times. In a soft well lit room the contrast would never be that high.

The intention was clearly to make it look like a warm interior, adding all those grungy green tones make it look like she's standing by a window. I dunno the context of the room, but number 1 looks way better to me..

Edit: Final thought - crushing blacks like that, from a game perspective means you may miss details that may have been meant to be seen. But power to you! Options are always better.

Get Kodi, and look up instructions to get 'the crew' Plug in added to it, and then grab a month subscription to real-debrid and check it out. Bit of an effort to get set up, but once it is, it works arguably better than streaming. 4k, better bit rate, sports and all the TV shows and Movies, language and sub options, the lot.

I have it all set up on my TV box, and while browsing can be a bit wonkier, my watching experience is unmatched.
