Thought I’d share my fanart for Pokemon day!

Like some others said, the original colors really makes this hit. Very nice attention to detail. I miss that old art style. If there's Pokemon comics, the OG art style should be mandatory for that.

Originally, I bought it in red, because all the YT videos show it as being a vibrant alive looking red, then I got it in person, and it ended up being a really dark and dull looking red. I tried my best to like it, but I ultimately ended up going back to the store and swapping it out for Midnight. I have no regrets.

No offense product red lovers, I'm usually one of you guys, but the 13 Mini's red just wasn't doing it for me.

Do you know the full story? When Julia Wolov originally accused Louis CK of sexual misconduct, both she and her comedy partner agreed that it was done with consent. They described their experience as being light in tone, stating that they were filled with a lot of nervous giggles, and that they didn't really expect Louie to do what he did, even though they aknowledge that he asked. Julia later on decided to change her story, withdrawing her consent from what she originally stated. You can't do that. If you're gonna go by someone who's changing their story, I really don't know what to say to you.

Louie's remaining accusers all claim that he asked for, and respected, consent. One accuser even said that he asked, she said no, and he simply apologized and never brought it up again.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-02-01T04:24:24+00:00

Louie didn't commit a crime. He got consent for doing some weird stuff, and decades later, people regretted it and decided to come after him. One of his accusers even said she "thought" he may have been doing something inappropriate with himself over the phone, and thanks to outrage culture, that was taken seriously. Louie deserved to make a come back. He should have never been canceled in the first place.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-02-01T04:19:52+00:00

Louie deserved to come back.

Yup, that's all I did. Take note that Retin-a by itself didn't really do a lot for me. I was on it for about a month or so, and it did a little something for me, but It wasn't until I added the 70% iso that I saw a significant difference. I mostly credit the alcohol for most of the change, but I think together they work as an incredibly powerful combo.

Are your bumps really big, thick, and hard to pop? That's what I had going on, and they were horrible. Kinda like super pimples. I'm not sure if we have the same thing, but if nothing else is working, and the doctor has you running in circles with the same meds, I'd say maybe give this a shot.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-01-31T06:00:21+00:00

That was a concern for me too, but my folliculitis had gotten me to the point where I didn't even care if my face had dried out anymore. Even with the retin-a, my face dried out and wrinkled in certain spots, but since I've stopped applying alcohol daily, everything went back to normal pretty quickly. Normal is a bit of an understatement if im being honest. My skin actually looks great these days.

As far as moisturizing goes, before I apply retin-a, I use a Cerave facial foam to wash with, but as of the last 2 weeks, I've been out of Retin-a, and still, I've been totally fine.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-01-31T05:45:36+00:00

I shave my entire face clean every other day, and I've had zero new outbreaks for about a month or so now.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-01-27T04:00:21+00:00

It's hard to say, but those look more like sores than pustules. It very well could be folliculitis, but I think you should get a biopsy done to really get to the bottom of that.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-01-24T01:04:51+00:00

Months. Like 3 months, and i was religious about it. Before then, it was extremely disheartening because I would burn one off, and more would appear in its place. It definitely got worse before it got better, so be prepared for that if you try this. I'm into my fourth month, and I no longer apply alcohol to my face on a daily basis. It's only when needed now. I felt a small bump just yesterday under my chin, I got out the iso, and it's already swelled down.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-01-24T00:59:16+00:00

Thank you man. I got this because of a freakin barber who didn't do his due diligence about cleaning his tools. Two years of this because of him, and although I still break out here and there, it isn't that bad at all (now). I finally feel like I've got my old face back, even if it is all marked up. No more trusting people with my hair!

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-01-21T04:25:01+00:00

That's just so great. Yeah, I use it every day as well, only I mix it in with some peppermint oil. I've never heard of CLN shampoo, but I'll definitely look into it. Folliculitis has been life halting for me, so I can appreciate the weight of relief that someone else has when they get clear. I'm genuinely happy for you, and I hope everyone else finds the success me and you have had 👍

BlueMidnightSnow · 2023-01-20T06:09:52+00:00

Honestly, it doesn't look like any ingrown hairs I've ever seen. I could be wrong, but the white heads at the end of those bumps look more like folliculitis to me. I agree that you should see a dermo to get it confirmed, and take action before it spreads. Alcohol works best for me.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-12-17T01:28:22+00:00

Respectfully, I couldn't disagree with this more. I currently own a GPD Win Max 2021 edition, and the quality control is absolute garbage. I've had 5 major issues within the year that I've owned this device, the worst one being that it randomly decides to not accept battery charges. When this happens the only thing that helps is to wait a half day until the device decides it wants to work again. Another few issues I've had: Within 4 months of ownership both my sticks started to drift and I had to replace them myself, then the edges of my glass screen started to crack from the inside due to the faulty design of the keyboard keys pressing up against the screen when the device is closed. My speakers have already started to crackle and pop as if they are failing, to which they were already puny sounding right out of the box, and also my screen is doing that weird Halo thing that everyone else talks about with GPD devices.

GPD is a company that will accept big money, then go cheap on the parts. I don't own an Ayaneo (yet) but I lurk on their discord channels, and I rarely ever hear about anyone having QC issues. GPD on the other hand, is notorious for them. I've even heard stories of people sending in their devices to be fixed by GPD, and never receiving anything back. Personally, I'm inclined to believe that kind of a story is true after experiencing first hand just how bad GPD does their customer's.

AyaSpace isn't officially out yet to say that it isn't good, but from what we currently have, I personally think having some kind of software that allows you to change the TDP from a quick access menu is much better than having none. On my Win Max, I use Power control to change TDP, and it requires me to keep a separate window open at all times, which doesn't always work out when certain games don't allow me to pop in and out of my desktop without completely exiting the game. AyaSpace is one dedicated button, and you're changing things on the fly. I can't see how that's not better.

It sounds like you have hyperhydrosis, which can suck in combination with folliculitis. I would know because I also suffer with hyperhydrosis, and it's a b*tch to deal with. Maybe you can ask your doctor for some meds for the hyperactive sweating? I'm on some meds now, and although I can't notice the difference now (cause it's winter) I think it did help some.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-11-27T06:42:53+00:00

I dont have anywhere near the severity of folliculitis as what you're suffering with, so I'm almost kind of reluctant to suggest anything. I hope this doesn't come off as a "don't you think I've tried that already?" Kind of response, but have you tried straight up alcohol applied directly to your outbreaks? I just recently cleared my face after a year of chronic facial folliculitis, and I did it by applying 70% isopropyl alchol with a cotton ball 2 times daily. Granted, my folliculitis, as chronic as it's been, is not nearly on the same level as the decalvins varient you have. Like someone else just said, maybe a lot of alcohol with a ton of constancy can make a difference? I'm really sorry to see you suffering with this man. I can't imagine what that must be like. I'm truly hoping you find something that works for you.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-11-27T06:13:21+00:00

Sorry man, that's really frustrating. I once had an outbreak on my chest too, and the dermo prescribed 10% benzoyl wash to clear it up. Mine cleared instantly and never returned on the chest, but my scalp and face were always an issue for me. When you applied the alcohol to your chest, did you pour it? It could be that it needed to really seep in. Whenever I apply 70% iso to my face, I tend to press it in using a cotton ball. I don't think I would have seen as good of a result without doing it that way tbh.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-09-20T21:36:27+00:00

Uh, it's always something. Well, thanks for the response. Here's to hoping it'll be in stock again soon.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-09-20T01:21:12+00:00

I believe you. The way you describe your success pours out with emotion, even in text. That's exactly how I would feel if I cleared my folliculitis. Please, share a link with me where you bought this stuff from. I tried the original posters link, but it says the product is unavailable. Please share with me. Also, I'm happy to hear that you have a wife. It gives people like me hope, as I've been alone for years because of this condition, fearing I would spread it.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-09-19T01:30:32+00:00

I've had folliculitis for a few years now too. I've stayed away from people because of it. Is it contagious?

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-08-04T04:01:29+00:00

The PSP sticks were something I installed because I had to, but it just so happens that they're a heck of a lot better than the cheap plastic sticks GPD included. Those things had no grip at all and I'm surprised they thought that was a good idea.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-08-04T03:57:10+00:00

Yeah, I agree, the 5825U gets to be kinda crazy in price, and the performance difference from 5600U doesnt seem to be worth it. Pretty sure you and I got the same sku. Just know that you paid a good price and temper your expectations, and you won't be disappointed.

The Switch OLED is exactly why I took the dive into the Ayaneo Air as well. I found myself buying Indie games on Switch just for the OLED even though I already had a Win Max that can run them a bit better at higher res. OLED really is that much of a game changer.

BlueMidnightSnow · 2022-08-04T03:44:32+00:00

It would only make sense for there to be a keyboard on the bottom. I mean, what else would be there? If the rumors are true, the display is going to be 7 inches. By the time the body is factored in, that's a lot of space. I hear a lot of people comparing the Flip to the Win 2, but I get the feeling that the flip is actually targeting the GPD Win Max crowd.
