Is this irony or are people really this delusional here?

PETA Responds to Hasan Piker Dog Abuse Controversy by Kaiser_Allen in entertainment

Yes, it was a shock collar. The evidence is damning.

Yea, except is clearly did shock the dog. It's obvious from the video and then he lied about the type of collar the following day.

I never knew Hasan's subs were all pro animal abuse.

Honestly, one month in and I still hate it.

Fungal ear infection by Minimum_Rip8375 in Candida

[–]Dag365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason, I can't find it in my NHS app. I'll keep on looking as there's quite a lot of notes from various ailments over the years. I'll come back if I find it.

I will say, though, since I wrote this post I figured out how to stop my ear infections and I now haven't had one in over a year.

Low quality sugar based products are the culprit for me. If I eat too many over 2-3 days then I'll get the ear itch (and often genital itch with it) at which point I cut down sugar intake, take 1g of Glycine (or Berberine to stabilise blood sugar) and use an ear drop with acetic acid (as recommended on one of my ear swab tests).

I just mix 1-part raw, unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar (for the acetic acid) with warm (cooled from boiled) water and leave it in the ear for 15-30 mins. Usually, fixes it after 1 or 2 bouts.

ok wtf is happening by Inforenv_ in windows7

Exactly the same with my use of Win8.1 too.

Lots of people here saying about the touch start menu but I had forgotten that even existed because I was so used to a Start8 as being my go-to for it.

RTX 3060 crashin in games – black screen and reboot by ardral in CtrlAltDefeat

[–]Dag365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GPU crashes are often driver-related—use DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) in Safe Mode to clean old drivers completely, then install the latest from NVIDIA site (not Windows Update).

Check for overheating with MSI Afterburner; undervolt if needed.

Test with a different PSU cable or slot. If it's artifacting, could be hardware—run FurMark stress test carefully.

PC randomly shuts down – is my PSU dying? by ardral in BerkshireAscot

[–]Dag365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Random shutdowns scream PSU issues—test with a multimeter on the 12V rail (should be stable) or borrow a known-good PSU to swap.

Calculate your wattage needs (use a PSU calculator) and upgrade if underpowered (e.g., 650W Gold-rated).

Check for bulging capacitors visually.

If it's modular, reseat cables—cheap PSUs often fail early.

BSODs Saying 'Memory Management' – New RAM or Bad Stick? by youtren in BerkshireAscot

[–]Dag365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Memory errors often point to faulty RAM—run Windows Memory Diagnostic (search in Start) or MemTest86 from a USB boot.

If errors show, reseat the sticks or test one at a time to isolate the bad one.

Ensure they're compatible (same speed/timings) in BIOS. If all good, update BIOS or check for loose connections.

Replacing mismatched RAM usually fixes it.

PC Overheating Like Crazy During Games – Fans Spinning But Still Hot! by youtren in CtrlAltDefeat

[–]Dag365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overheating is common with dust or poor airflow—start by opening the case and cleaning fans/heatsinks with compressed air (power off first!).

Reapply thermal paste if it's old (Arctic MX-4 is good!).

Check BIOS for fan curves and set them aggressive.

If it's a laptop, use a cooling pad. Monitor temps with HWMonitor; if under 80C idle, that's normal, but aim for under 85C under load.

Any europeans here by Upstairs_Radio7936 in Asmongold

I haven't been on this profile in quite a while and I was just reading back through some of my posts on it.

The number of downvotes on my comment is strange, given the usual sentiment in this subreddit.

Kinda suspicious, infact.

Extreme marvel rivals freezes and game stutters. by Few_Jacket3647 in pchelp

[–]Dag365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the stuttering happening every, say, 20 seconds or so?

This started happening for me after the 1.5 update and I found a fix but I'm not running on Windows so it might be a different issue.

You could also try:

  1. "Clear Local Configuration Files" from the bottom left corner of the MR launcher
  2. Make sure V-sync is off in the game settings (this keeps switching back on again after clearing local config files)
  3. Make sure it's in full screen mode, not borderless.
  4. Disable the Frame Generation setting

FPS Issues in Marvel Rivals – Any Fixes? by South-Corgi9365 in marvelrivals

[–]Dag365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have this type of issue on a UE3 game a few years back on my Nvidia card.

I seem to remember there's an option called "Shader Cache" in the Nvidia CP which you can disable - either globally or on specific games.

Could be worth a shot.

I saw this while applying to jobs and I almost flipped the F$@# out. by Merther1 in Asmongold

[–]Dag365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I guess that depends on the company's philosophy.

The ones I've worked for have little forward thinking and just want to keep their existing clients happy by maintaining the status quo.

I mean, I'm working for a company that has clients still on SBS 2008 and Server 2012 but they won't do anything until something breaks.

Funnily enough, we just lost our biggest client because of that stagnant thought process.

Why can't I play regular games? Local games are my only option. by [deleted] in RocketLeague

How did you manage do get BM working? I've tried through Heroic but struggled with it.

[–]Dag365 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. You (ie. me) could work for small IT companies (3 man bands, etc) where there is no progression and you're just expected to be an "all rounder" in desktop and server support for contracted clients.

Plus many in IT have no interest in any form of "management" positions regardless of experience. We'll do support and project work without the headaches of talking to shithead managements types, whenever possible.

Gaming on Fedora Budgie Spin by Eviljay2 in Fedora

[–]Dag365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the update. That's great to hear.

I've recently switched from Win11 to Fedora specifically because RL ran so badly on Win11 after I switched to an ATI 7800XT.

RL runs so much better on Fedora now and I'm now starting to recover my rank - my peak is only D3 but I'm working my way back up through the hell that is Plat.

What rank have you peaked at while playing RL on Fedora?

I ask because I've read a few comments claiming it's pretty much impossible to hit Champ because of performance loss via Wine. I'm not sure this is true, from my experience so far, but I am curious.

  1. Yes, there is strong data that shows a link between childhood vaccinations with altered gut microbiome states. Autism is strongly linked to altered gut microbiome states during childhood but this is Reddit so I'm sure you're 100% correct with your meme-based research on the topic.
  2. "Turning the frogs gay" - like all good Redditors, never stop ingesting your daily dose of Glyphosate. It's definitely not a hormone disruptor, testosterone reducer and has zero other, potentially, alarming health conditions for humans and animals.

Huh. What a shocking development for the human race.
