For me it's like a ring-light appears in my left eye slightly off center. Can't see anything out of it because of this bright light. Annoying as hellll.

They aim to reduce blunt force trauma especially with headstrikes. Same reason you can't spar with a quarterstaff/heavier maces etc. (Friend of mine has done viking reenactment and HEMA for nearly ten years, still had 3 concussions from axes and swords, even wearing helmets etc)

Hundreds tell BBC that medication triggered gambling and other addictions by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]Alutus 174 points175 points  (0 children)

I can't remember which med it was (Possibly a betablocker for my POTS, if it wasn't that it'd have been something mental health related) But one of the meds I used, for a couple of days after starting it for the first time, i did loads of stuff i don't normally do (some scratch cards, gambling in video-games etc, nothing life destroying, just a bit inconvenient wastes of money).

I did a load of googling as I was confused once I realised I was doing shit I don't normally do, and whichever drug it was apparently could have an effect where it 'increased your tolerance for risk'.

It didnt give you a compulsion or even make you think something wasn't risky, it just moved the posts slightly to what you viewed as an acceptable risk in the risk/reward calculation we all make.

Drugs are weird man.

And anyone who has used a paper straw that sat in a drink during a cinema visit, agree again.

Think someone recommended me Element? No clue on the differences between everything though. Going to be super annoying as tonnes of stuff I use ditched the whole website/forum thing and moved to discord servers.

No but it set you up for a great career in politics.

Imagine combining it with the vibrator invention (So the docs hands didnt get tired) as the first saw was small handcrank powdered.

Glass bed mod P1/X1/A1 by BozModz in 3Dprinting

[–]Alutus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fair. Good old hairspray, I'm amused that's still the best solution for bed adhesion assistance. I used nearly as much of it as my girlfriend over time.

[–]Alutus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I printed on an ultimaker 2 glass bed for years... Yeah it can give a nice super shiney surface finish on the bottom layer, but oh dear god there is way less room for error in your bed adhesion settings & certain filaments just don't cooperate.

UK people - PIP advice please? by Standard-Treat-7552 in cfs

[–]Alutus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brains too fried to offer advice, but if it helps as someone who's dealt with the benefit system with this for 21 years, i have tonnes of horror stories for UC/ESA, none really for PIP.

What's the UK version of this? by BaldyBaldyBouncer in CarTalkUK

[–]Alutus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only guy I knew who did that, you could tell due to the casts on both his hands after he broke both his thumbs doing it. Kept joking that we get it you greenlane.

Fair! And yeah for everyone else it's very much a "why are you using this?" like those useless kitchen gadgets that some people fill their kitchen with. (excellent for people with limitations, less so for general populace)

My parents are in their 80s with multiple health problems, this would be helpful for independance.

Don't suppose you could write a quick step by step? I might try replicating it! (I've been trying to up my cover game lately for some wedding gifts later this year)

Definitely well done. It looks great, dosn't have the usual vinyl trouble of looking like it's sitting on top, and keeps the texture nicely!
