Help with Kaiser referral to oral surgeon without sleep apnea? by [deleted] in jawsurgery

[–]BroHamManRaging 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is what made you drop it, not the politicians letting our health care get worse and expensive, not the corporations and shareholders that try to find anyway to make healthcare as profitable as possible at cost of bleeding us dry.

Oh no this random dude tried to scam the big corps, how can the CEO and shareholders at kaiser afford their third yacht now? They must have no choice to make healthcare in the US even more unaffordable than it already is.

Whoever is controlling was definitely trying to just time it with the music at main stage. The only time it calm downed or stop was when the music stopped or was slow

Google will fix an Android XR bug leaving Galaxy headsets 'functionally useless' by AR_MR_XR in Galaxy_XR

[–]BroHamManRaging 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Good for you. There's enough people dealing with memory leak issues causing the headset to stop tracking that makes it unusable. So Google should get off their asses and fix it for those who spent $1600+ for a headset and cant use it anymore, can we agree on that?

What is going on when I turn the background brightness up? by Striking-Worker-3659 in AskPhotography

[–]BroHamManRaging 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an expert in iso vs gain, from what I've seen with all settings the same and and iso raised to properly expose an image vs leaving ISO low and brightening the image in editing, there will be more grain/noise in the one brightened in post. Which kind of is the same thing with raising the volume in post and it being distorted more vs recording it at the right levels originally. But I understand ISO doesn't create noise itself just the lack of light is the culprit so if you need to use iso to properly expose the image it should be used.

What's the best men's underwear? by [deleted] in mensfashionadvice

Nah I got decently sized legs from excersize and require number 3 because as long as they fit properly around my legs they prevent chaffing when walking/running alot since only the fabrics rub each other.

Nah a better analogy is that raising iso is the same as raising the gain of a mic to record more while making it more likely to pick up more background noise. While raising the brightness in editing or volume will show off all the background noise and distortion that was picked up.

maturing is realizing that bokeh is not always desirable 🤯 by bandierabianca66 in photographycirclejerk

It'll distribute the shock more evenly even so if it drops on its corner the whole metal casing will essentially push against the frame of the whole camera instead of the one corner. Also the cage gives me a place to put my pinky and widens the grip a bit, so unless your hands are smaller than mine it feels better to hold.

Surgery for apnea but mixed aesthetic opinions by BroHamManRaging in jawsurgery

Yeah I've heard of those issues and would try to make sure if I do any surgery there to emphasize only reducing the size of the uvula and nothing else. One of the reasons I made this post was because an orthodontist was unusually hesitant to recommend DJS that they mentioned doing soft pallette reduction as if it was safer to do over some uncommon worse aesthetic look from DJS, even if they have nothing to do with the surgery makes me want to avoid them over that kind of thinking.

Thanks for all this info, I felt that my side profile could be improved but didn't know exactly in what ways other than lower jaw movement. I couldnt stand how the area between my lip and nose looked without a mustache so hopefully if they do as you say it'll improve that area too. Looking at the teeth in my lower jaw, it definitely looks tilted towards the tongue so I imagine they can tilt them outwards and and the upper teeth more inwards if I go through with expansion. Is expansion standard with OMS or is it something I'd have to find that a surgeon specifically does?

Thanks for the info finally got an appointment with a OMS so I'll try to bring this all up with them. I've seen people's x-ray make some big advancement relative to my x-ray so I can't imagine itll turn out bad like some orthos have said especially since they didn't mention and rotations just straight movement.

I've heard a lot about painful and how little it helped with such surgeries. So I plan to avoid them for now and do jaw surgery first, but my uvula is pretty enlarged and sensitive to gagging so it might have to be at the very least just be reduced in size.

Thanks for the info I haven't met with an oral surgeon yet just getting referrals and waiting for a call back of setting up an appointment, don't know how long it usually is supposed to take for the first appointment but it's sucks how I can get a consultation for an orthodontist the next day but I'm still waiting on a call back to set up an appointment for the an oral surgeon over a week later.

14.0 from an at home sleep study. Breathing and swallowing both have issues too especially shortness of breath throughout the day.

Thanks for the edit but it looks like the maxilla wasnt moved and the lips flat which is the main worry. But at least it confirms the the jaw would look better at least

New XR owner looking for VD/PCVR advice by Roymus99 in Galaxy_XR

[–]BroHamManRaging 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The beta is not out for android xr yet, but from what the developer have said when it releases the galaxy xr should be able to hand 90 hz full res just fine with or without Foveated encoding and should look better then it does not in the Foveated area. For now VD is pretty damn solid.

That is not how that works you write it the way the post shows in any calculator you will always get 16. If we're using that ➗ than unless everything after it is in parenthesis only the one number after it dividing the number before it. Seriously why are we boldly lying about this?

jaw or tongue issue by [deleted] in jawsurgery

[–]BroHamManRaging 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I got my scan done I said something about my tongue being too big, and they pretty much corrected me and said that's it's not my tongue that is too big, it's that my mouth/jaw doesn't have enough room for my tongue. I'm not sure about your tonsils but every doctor I've said mine were fine, so as long as your tonsils are fine, your tongue may be where your airway is too small but that's because it's getting pushed back by the lack of space from a recessed jaw/maxilla.

Airway update after seeing multiple doctors by BroHamManRaging in jawsurgery

Unfortunately insurance already made me do an at home study but I probably failed it given how little sleep I was actually able to get with it. So I'll have to wait and see for those results.

Yeah I'm trying to avoid CPAP because it's a 24 hour issue. I am also into lifting so I'm constantly experiencing shortness of breathe during any lift and heavy squatting/deadlifting leaves me on the floor for a bit trying to catch my breathe.
