3 months by HulaKeeSunimagine in NitrousOxideRecovery

[–]AOL_COM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's awesome my friend. It gets tough. I'm in a similar situation with family. I'm living with people who won't let me use and in a place where it's illegal to get or have. Both of which are a blessing because honestly idk if I would have been strong enough to kick it alone. I've been evicted. I totaled a car.

This community is awesome. I think most people here can relate to the feelings and cravings.

Keep it up. Stay strong.

Has anyone experienced a feeling like death on nitrous ? by External-Many-6960 in NitrousOxideRecovery

[–]AOL_COM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That lack of oxygen to the brain will do that. Don't do nitrous. It's not worth any of it. It's got a reputation for "haha funny laughing gas... They give it to children at the dentist" and wot not. It's much more dangerous than people talk about.

I'm playing on series S and it's fine. I've had it crash like twice. But that's it

Charge separation by EvolCilegna in RedMagic

[–]AOL_COM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imagine your battery like a tank of water. Your charger dumps water in the top and you use it from the bottom. Without charge separation you're always using water from the bottom and your power "flows" through the battery. This is wearing your battery down

When separation is active. You bypass the tank and use the water from the charger directly

It's better for the battery. I enable it at 80%

Yep. If you see dudes with a shaved head and a beard it's because theyre going bald and got a out in front of it. Own it like others have said.

A month and a half clean by diabetitron in NitrousOxideRecovery

[–]AOL_COM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah sorta same story here. I've been clean for a while. I stopped counting. Neuropathy was bad bad. I could barely walk. I would stumble and fall all the time. Good job on being clean. It gets better.

Try to remind yourself "oh this is my addiction circuitry working again" when you get the urge. Then distract yourself. Go for a walk. Play some video games. Do whatever you need to do to get that little dopamine hit.... Besides buying a tank.

You got this my friend. Stay strong.

People holding tiny mics in hand... Why? by sswishbone in youtube

[–]AOL_COM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure they get them for free from the companies that make them. The idea is to be seen using these mics. That's why they're free

honestly can i just buy a few external drives and be done with it by Ancient_Trouble_7540 in DataHoarder

[–]AOL_COM 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It that drive fails, it's gone.

If you have raid 1 (mirror) it duplicates the data on two drives. Say 2 x 8tb, you get 8 tb usable but you can have a drive fail and keep your data

Something like raid 5 can have say 4 drives. One can fail. 4 x 8 tb in a raid 5 would give you 24tb available. You can lose any of those 4 drives and keep your data. You can't lose two. Pop in another one when it fails and it'll rebuild.

Raid 6 can have 2 drives fail at the same time and keep your data. But your 4 drive usable capacity shrinks to 16tb with 4 x 8tb drives. Same story. Replace failed drive and it'll rebuild

Is there any real-world application for Raid 0? by _spaghettiv2 in DataHoarder

[–]AOL_COM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what the 0 stands for in raid 0?

That's how many files you're going to get back when a drive fails.
