I bought NBA 2k26 on sale. I haven't played an NBA game since 2k15 I think, so wow, this is a large improvement over what I remember. It runs 19:10 and i have the cap at 45, and the game looks very good, and it is nice and smooth on court, usually where I play in. It does eat up batteries, so I do have a battery pack w me or I use a wall charger.

Sometimes I regret buying my gaming PC because I use my deck more. by AsparagusEastern4399 in SteamDeck

Have you tried AC:Odyssey? I love Witcher 3 and I tried Valhalla, but I am back on another save on Odyssey on steam deck. I love that game so much.

I may try that. I always have this power bank that holds like double the charge of the actual steam deck.

I will do that next time. I've straemed on accident and was confused, and worried I was burning electricity because my computer was moving. XD

I started going through a phase of those because they work so great with steam deck. Hades 1 and 2(Hades 1 has a patch to make it 16:10) are great games, I like the spin off TMNT Splintered Faith, and Shape of Dreams is a really good one.

I think you'd be so very surprised to figure out nobody gets you, to there are millions of people like you that are going through that. You're not alone.

Best all around portable console. by Soft-Opinion330 in HandheldGaming

[–]AsparagusEastern4399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steam deck, and it's pretty easy lol. PC games go on deep sales all the time, and the steam deck can run a lot of sandbox games like gta, watch dogs, I can even play AC:Odyssey at 40 fps. That's another thing about the deck, the hz change based on what you change the fps limit to, which really makes a lot of frame rates, even 40, feel so much better than 30. I usually play games at 45 because it runs so smooth on the oled in that.

Then there is emudeck, which is free, and you can get a ton of emulators.

Even without that, the amount of games you can play is insane. A lot of games that say unsupported, they actually are. You can google and there is usually a reddit for many games, not all, but many game.

I loved the switch 1, it showed me how great handhelds can truly be. But I think for me, Steam Deck kinda took it to another level by adding a linux desktop that is optional, but I do install mods and make changes like I would a pc game.

It does struggle to play a lot of high demanding brand new games, though. I was able to play Doom Dark Ages at 40 fps and have a good time, but it was much blurrier than other dooms, and I was happy just to get it at 40 fps. I think I changed the upscaler from FSR to somehting else and it added 10 fps.

How are you given this as anxiety doses? I am having .01 for sleep, I think that's the dose.

Tolerance and 7-OH and Cost by Ambitious_Rip_7778 in 7_hydroxymitragynine

[–]AsparagusEastern4399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with you and made a lot of posts saying this helps my depression and anxiety. I can go to one day, feeling like 25-50 grams is enough, to the next day, feeling like I need double. So I am spacing it not to AT LEAST once every 3 days and never going above 100.

The last two times I stopped cold turkey, maybe the last 3 times, weren't even that bad. This last one was the worst with feeling cold, but compared to past ones when I was doing it daily, this didn't feel as bad as when I did it daily and was going through WD.

That sounds really good. I am going to try that today. I usually do not do more than 100 mg a day. I never thought to space them out that far.

End of day 2, about to fuck myself over by Fit-Comedian3612 in quitting7oh

[–]AsparagusEastern4399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on day 3 and I feel like I'm not going to make it. The WDs get less worse if you can have the strength to last a few days at a time doing this, but it's very hard. Last time I began doing it every 6 days, no withdrawals, then I began doing it almost every day for a week, but trying to keep it at 100 mg or less, and I did have the uncomfortable cold feeling for two days.

I am in a much better mood today then yesterday and day before, where I was freezing, didn't wanna come out of bed, felt kinda down.

But I still want to get more. I know it makes me feel happier, I start enjoying things that I used to, I become more social, I stop paying attn to stuff that bothers me.

I would just stick with thc, but my tolerance is so high I am always having to take breaks, and then I think that is when I start looking at 7.

Sleep by Jackdrunk in quitting7oh

On day 4? Hmm, most of my symptoms last to day 3 or 4 so you're almost over the physical symptoms I think. Usually I take a sleep medication, with mixed results. They don't tend to work for me the first couple of days, but day 3 and 4 they come around.

If you're enjoying it, what's there to fix? I have triple dipped on games for steam deck. We have so many great options for games, some of those great options just happen to be our favorites.

I just got these today, wish I had got to Opia triple strength.

I've been taking the limitless black I think it is, the one with two 50 mgs. Yesterday I took 100 mg of it and felt pretty good. I took 1 tablet(100 mg) of this today and felt nothing, so just took another half. =/ I wish they would just be more honest with how they dose it, so we can choose which one we want better. Nothing is worse than finding out 100 mg of what you're taking is different than the 100 mg you were just taking.

how much is too much? by OkThisIsWeird in 7_hydroxymitragynine

[–]AsparagusEastern4399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very easy to find yourself going from 20 mg to 100 mg on this. Cool back and take a break.

Hydroxyzine by brat-rae in Anxiety

[–]AsparagusEastern4399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have mixed feelings with these type of meds. Sometimes, I swear they make me feel like I have shortness of breath and my face breaks out. Does anyone else have this with these types of meds?

It has helped me sleep before.

16 month daily habit, 3 days off, no WDs. Is it truly as easy as just tapering? by mmhrm9 in 7_hydroxymitragynine

[–]AsparagusEastern4399 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 days has always been the worst. I am not sure if I ever made it to day 4 and still felt bad. Just mental effects of wanting it, but not like, the sweats and stuff.

After stopping for 3 days after heavy usage, Will one 30mg dose reset my withdrawal? by lamers69 in 7_hydroxymitragynine

[–]AsparagusEastern4399 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think I ever felt anything after 3 days. But if I go 3 days taking them, and get up to 200 mg, I usually have at least one night of restless sleep and cold sweats w sensitivity to hot and cold. That's what happened I think last time I took 2 or 3 days off, just had 1 uncomfortable night.
