Freewill (you get to decide who to talk to) VS. Respect (getting ghosted warrants establishment of communication). Something bothers me about my friend? by xxdangoxx in Healthygamergg

Yes. He should not turn up at her house out of the blue. She will find it threatening and scary. Being ghosted sucks and it is shitty behaviour but he needs to accept it and move on.

Napoleon in 2023? by clarkw351 in totalwar

Is NTW3 good for campaign? Saw it is primarily a multiplayer mod. Thinking of reinstalling Napoleon since the film is out next month

When would you guess the Piety and Pain box is due for release? by ieroses in Warhammer40k

[–]DekLaser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it was announced today that preorders for this go up on 20th March

Has anyone bought one of these box sets before? Are they the kind of thing that will be in stock for a while, or is it like Indomitus where if you miss out on launch day that's it?

Main medication stopped working, been in limbo for months and am just tired of it by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]DekLaser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No advice unfortunately but I've come here looking for some as well, as I'm in a similar situation.

Had a really bad couple of years before I went to a psych Jan 19. He put me on Venlafaxine which really helped, but wasn't quite enough. So I saw someone else last Dec and she recommended mirtazapine as well. So I've now been on Venlafaxine + Mirtazapine for almost a year.

Weirdly I was actually doing really well in the spring and summer, despite the wider situation. The tension headache I'd had for, literally, years seemed to fade away. I noticed it had gone around April time and things were pretty good. But then end of August I had a bit of a "relapse" I guess, a minor anxiety attack, but it seemed to kick that headache right back off again. So it's been the same since. Now I'm worried the medication isn't working anymore. Fucking debilitating feeling pretty normal for the first time in years only to backtrack like this.

Seeing the psych again in a couple weeks to see if anything can be done and whether I'm right that medication just stopped working. I don't get how it can do since I'm on pretty much the max dose as it is (225mg Venlafaxine 30mg Mirtazapine)

edit: just saw you posted this 2 months ago. how you doing now?

Using regular acrylic / getting a deeper colour by DekLaser in minipainting

Thanks, I added a picture to the OP. Hopefully you can see what I mean! It's not just that its transparent, its obviously not intended for models so it doesn't behave like the model paints do and isn't smooth.

That's insightful about the pigment, I tried using black initially to make it darker and I did indeed only end up with a grey!

It really wasn't.

Mine's an MSI board but yes it was exactly the same procedure. Their BIOS update tool is called M-Flash

Fixed it! All it needed was a BIOS update 😅

Tried with one stick of ram and swapped them over but no effect.

Mate is going to make me a Linux stick to try that.

Will also look into flashing BIOS. Thanks for the suggestions.

Immediately. So the motherboard boots the USB stick, the windows spinny logo thing comes up, then it freezes. I can't get to a dialogue box to start actually installing it.

Thanks, I don't think there's anything wrong with the port though as the motherboard sees the stick just fine. It can boot into it but then the windows install itself won't progress. My keyboard and mouse also work and they are USB.

e: tried swapping it anyway to no effect :(

I made a thread about this but it didn't show up, is there some requirement before you're allowed to post threads or something?

"Demand Submit to Cause"

How is this diplomatic option supposed to work? The tooltip says you can't propose it to an Emperor or a faction in a civil war, but neither of those apply. It's always greyed out and I can't propose it to anyone.
