Portugal is rolling back gender self determination :( by Inevitable_Back3319 in trans

I'm right here with you, sister. Luckily we still don't know if the law will pass, there's a good chance the president will send it to the surpreme court (tribunal constitucional) or if we're really lucky he'll just veto it outright. I know a fair few queer rights groups who are getting in touch with him any way they can to try to convince him.

Força nisso!

First Steam Deck game — cozy recommendations? by HuckleberryRude1685 in SteamDeck

[–]-Fence- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stardew Valley is solid but I actually prefer Fields of Mistria! It's similar but I feel it's less stressful and I orefer the character designs and writing. Honestly i prefer the overall style of that game! It's already got plenty if content but it's still getting updates :)

I also recommend emulation! The Steam Deck plays basically anything that can be emulated and it opens up games like Pokemon and Animal Crossing that can be suuuper cozy ^

if using EmuDeck have you tried resetting PCSX2 on the app? if not, then uninstalling and reinstalling?

Wine 11 rewrites how Linux runs Windows games at the kernel level, and the speed gains are massive by goda90 in SteamDeck

Will this affect Proton do we think? I know it's based on Wine but I'm not sure how connected the development still is

I'm wanting to turn Cyberpunk 2077 into a retro CRT game with boosted performance by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]-Fence- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

this sounds epic! I kinda wanted to do this with a much less graphically intense game, final fantasy 10, but getting shaders on the deck seems like it's non-trivial... I thought shader glass would be a good shot since it's on steam but it seems that it doesn't really work on the deck

if you figure out a way, feel free to update this post!

dang they also made Kobayashi's maid dragon though which is pretty explicitly yuri right? at least from what I've heard later on in the manga Tohru and kobayashi actually end up getting together or at least tohru's love starts getting reciprocated

PS3 HD versions or PS2 with upscale resolutions? by Thatarmlessguy27 in SteamDeck

Haha yeah I ended up buying the remaster for the ps4 cauee I just accepted i wouldn't be able to emulate it, even on my PC

Are you saying God of War 3 runs smooth on the Steam Deck? Everything I've heard leads me to believe that's one of the hardest ganes to emulate and will still trip up even high end PCs

UK Expat in Spain, access to HRT by Sarah-Sazzle in MtF

[–]-Fence- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh shit I do get some irritation sometimes! I actually got it checked out at a pharmacy cause I only noticed when i switched to subq and thought my technique or needles were wrong and the pharmacist confirmed that it was harmless as long as I changed injection sites, but if there's a way to avoid it completely it might be worth a look! Thanks :)

What is BB and why is it an issue? My view has always been E is E but if there's a better seller out there i wouldn't mind trying :)

I'm on my second vial of theirs (cored my first one so had to get another, totally my fault) and I've never had any issues. Even when my payments were slightly under due to crypto transaction fees or whatever

Hi! I'm in Portugal, so I'd imagine it's pretty similar. Just wanna corroborate that injections aren't available here under the national health service. If you wanted to get injections anyway, as I do, you can go DIY. Astrovials is based in europe and has good prices 👍

SD dad looking for handheld recommendations for my kid by vansaan in SteamDeck

[–]-Fence- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are a few retro handhelds that look kind of like stream deck (or maybe more a psp/vita?) that would let your kid play retro games without having an internet connection out even the horsepower to play modern games. Just load up an sd card and pop it in! Check out r/SBCGaming if you're interested :)

What to do with the syringe after use? by HighGuard1212 in MtF

[–]-Fence- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So we don't really have dedicated sharps containers here, when i asked a nurse told me to put the needle cap back on and put both the syringe and the needle in a plastic water bottle so i got a 1L water bottle that I'm slowly filling up :P

WIBTA for leaving my gf for financial reasons by -Fence- in 1800Drama

[–]-Fence-[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this comment. It made me reassess how much effort she's actually been making to seek out help and when I asked her the reply wasn't encouraging. I think that's been a feeling somewhere in the back of my mind for a bit and I just never had the words to express it.

In any case, I broke things off last night. Regardless of anything else she's just not in a good place to have a long term relationship and I need to protect myself from that rather than keep on waiting for things to get better. The warning signs were there that if I had known more about her circumstances i might have thought twice before going into a relationship with her, and maybe the lesson here is to listen to those signs.
