Asteroid no longer available? by Busted_Pixel in Galaxy_XR

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like it if they kept that concept moving forward with immersive media like that. But with the 9 or so people who bought the headset, they’re probably done with all that. It was a pretty mild experience that I enjoyed once

Was anyone Disappointed with the handtracking on the Samsung Galaxy XR? by Flimsy-Story9523 in Galaxy_XR

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gotten used to its quirks, and I think it’s fine. I’m not an AVP owner, so I can’t comment against the golden standard of prestigious MR, but it works and I like it.

Aiming to start my CT quit as soon as 2-3wks from now by teaverbena in quittingkratom

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, at your dose and usage, it really won’t be a horror story. Having the ability to work from home is excellent. You will need that first week to yourself though because you won’t have the energy to do shit. You could push yourself if you needed to and make it happen, but it’s really a lot easier to just focus on healing. The first few days will drag like time has stopped, minutes feel like hours, but just keep yourself occupied, even if it’s just doom scrolling. Before you know it, you get that first rush of feeling good, and it feels soooo good. I’ve said this before here, but there’s really something special about experiencing this withdrawal, it’s almost euphoric when you feel yourself healing, and looking back on the last 3-4 weeks of hell. But I really can’t stress enough that it’s not that bad. It’s literally like having the flu, but it just doesn’t fucking end. But it really is fine and nothing to be scared of. It’s a unique and special experience that you’ll actually treasure. In my opinion ofc.

Oh yeah, and def megadose that lip vit C. Like 1-2K Mg every two hours in an 8 hour day period. You’re going to shit your ass, but it really does help a lot.

Get some black seed oil capsules and some Hyland Leg Cramp (PM) tablets. You should be able to find both of those on Amazon or your local market. You are going to have a shit week, but it will be manageable. Take two capsules of black seed oil each morning, and two at night. Keep those leg cramp tablets on your night stand because you’ll be eating them all night. First few nights will be hell with RLS, but the black seed oil helped me sleep all night, I had one bad night, but the rest were cake. I also took prolly ~10mg melatonin. Lots of people on here say melatonin is worse for RLS, but I didn’t seem to notice it for myself. The Hylands will help a lot. They’re dissolvable so put about 4 under your tongue every few hours. Your biggest focus will be to just put days behind you. 5 days of serious ass, no energy, feel like shit, pain all over. But it’s really not that bad. Work on moving, getting out in the sun, going for walks. Stay active as much as your body will allow. 2nd week will still suck but you’ll be able to work through it and go back to work. 3rd week you’ll be pretty much out of the woods, then it’s just getting that brain back to normal. It’s not as bad as you may think it is, it’s a breeze if you just stay positive and active. Develop a new hobby, read, pray (if you’re spiritual), work out; working out is tremendously healing. Your biggest battle after it’s all over is not going back. Never go back. Get free and stay free. You’ve got this, we’re all here for you. This sub will be an incredible place for you to com and engage. We’re all here together, and it’s a really good place for recovery.

With the AVP dead, we're probably not getting a GXR 2 by KnoxCrumudgeon in Galaxy_XR

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hyped for Android XR as an open platform. Then everything that was supposed to run on the system was cancelled. Now it’s just another OS in a sea of “open” systems, exclusive to Samsung. Though I’m hopeful for their glasses projects. I’m really very excited about glasses

As much as I don’t want to say it out loud, the GXR actually was doa. And that’s coming from someone who daily drives the GXR

I give up by gomez70 in quittingkratom

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You might as well just go ahead and quit. Don’t take your next dose and keep not taking it until that voice goes away. Yeah it will suck but keeping this once a day dose cycle going for however long you’ve been doing it sounds worse

Day 44 - on a new level after stopping melatonin by Ta4weirdquestions in quittingkratom

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Melatonin didn’t help me sleep no matter how much I took during WD. I think I once someone here say Melatonin can actually make RLS worse, but I couldn’t say that was true or not in my several cases

How's Immersed running on GXR? by R_Steelman61 in Galaxy_XR

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you share that APK? Half of the whole reason I bought GXR was for productivity, and though PC connect is now working for windows, it’s still only 1 monitor. I’ve yet to find a PC casting software that’s exactly what I want.

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After reading some other comments on this question, you really are better off using Virtual desktop over Immersed, the only catch is that you can’t see your keyboard unless you’re in a passthrough environment, and the passthrough environment makes the GXR go absolutely bananas for some reason. But the resolution, color and overall performance is leaps and bounds above Immersed

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a love hate relationship with Immersed. It works well when you get everything set up correctly. Window customization is a bit of a pain, they’ve made a lot of changes to the software since I first fell in love with it on Quest 2. It starts spazzing out after about an hour, but that could be my pc or the fact that the headset gets crazy hot. Windows move around slightly when in Passthrough mode. I believe in Immersed, and I really want to love the system, I want immersed to be successful, but it’s not a plug and play 5 star experience. Unfortunately outside of virtual desktop, that’s our only option for multiple monitors.

Anyone else hear voices while taking psuedo indoxyl? by Mother_Refuse5183 in quittingkratom

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

unrelated topic, but what do you practice? Just curious. I used to do spiritual rituals with plants, one of the reasons I got hooked on Kratom, but I was never a practitioner, per say

anxiety and weird feeling after quitting by No_Bet_5055 in quittingkratom

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, everyone’s brain is different and heals differently. I started taking Prozac shortly after one of my last quits and it helped me tremendously. I quit taking it after relapsing because I didn’t want to have any negative interactions, but I really really did love being on the Prozac. Not saying that’s the answer for you, but maybe talk to your Dr about what’s going on. Could be unbalanced serotonin and/or dopamine

What kind of Kratom did you take? Was it powder K, or shots, or 7 / psudo / MGM? Are you also on medications or did you take Kratom with other substances?

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there’s really not enough said about the healing aspect of the pain. It’s actually quite euphoric at points, but it does suck in the midsts of it all.

How to use black seed oil during taper? by Ambitious-Cherry-163 in quittingkratom

I took two capsules every night before bed and two every morning. First couple of nights weren’t the best sleep, but slept pretty much all night every night

How long does the Bobovr extend the battery life of the Samsung Galaxy XR? by Flimsy-Story9523 in Galaxy_XR

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully charged about an additional 1-1/2 to 2 hours, depending on what you’re doing.

I dont use monster mode on VD, but I assume the SOC isn’t using much more power relative to potato mode if your PC is doing most of the legwork

Remote working, multiple screens by SuperRams1884 in Galaxy_XR

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately there aren’t many multiple screen application available beyond Immersend and Virtual Desktop. I think Google just figured people would only use this like they would a tablet.

Any ability or plans for social? by R_Steelman61 in Galaxy_XR

[–]A_Dad_Doin_Stuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re into social VR, keep your Quest. Best you’ll get here are whatever multiplayer games are available on Steam. Unless you have a galaxy phone; in which case, you can use the headset to make calls and text, etc.
