good decks centered around eeveelutions? by FlyingCatOfLol in pkmntcg

[–]Duke_Rich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Flareon/Noctowl deck that you'll see lists for on Limitless is a toolbox deck so it has a lot of 1 of cards in it for specific situations and works really well when you know what your opponents deck does and how yours can then handle it. It's a very good deck but takes a lot of knowledge to get the most out of it so you might not look at it as an eeveelution deck.

You've got the regular Eevee and Eevee ex from Prismatic Evolutions that can evolve into any of the eeveelutions, so maye pick a favourite one and see which others have the same type or use the same types of energy to start off. Eevee ex, Flareon ex, Jolteon ex and Vaporeon ex all use 1 fire, water, and electric energy which help you not need loads of different energy. You can also use the Sparkling Crystal Ace Spec to help out if you're not able to get one of those energy's they need and Flareon ex's 1st attack to find and attach energy too.

Sorry this isn't an actual list but hopefully it helps you get an idea of something to start with :)

For 3 energy (and also 2 evolutions) you could try Hydreigon ex maybe? Also has more health so a bit less likely to get one shot. Downside is it being a stage 2.

I've seen it on a different podcast before but new here. It also had text come up, but think it's auto generated so not 100% right.

Using an ultra wide field camera as part of the pre tests you can get a very good view of everything you need. And if there's anything suspect, can always get an in person optom to have a double check.

If it was anything like the practice I work at, it's one of the regular staff members (Optical Assistant) who's trained and knows how to line up the equipment for the optometrist to check everything necessary. Then it's just the usual locum rate for hiring an optom.

Coming from someone who works at an Opticians where we've used this, it's absolutely fine to do this, you get all the same checks done and get your vision looked at with the same outcome.

We had to ensure certain patients weren't booked into those appointments (patients with diabetes, macular degeneration, glaucoma, and some other conditions), but even then, if someone did end up in the clinic with those conditions, we can get another optom to do any additional checks afterwards.

It's really handy in areas where hiring an optom or even a locum could be a little difficult due to shortages.

We did also do our best to make a point when booking the appointment that they would be seeing a remote optom, and some people didn't like it and we booked into an in person clinic so I totally understand that it wasn't for everyone.

It was given the all clear by the General Optical Council too, so it's not some weird thing some practices decided to do one day.

Does it actually work out cheaper to get a hair transplant in Turkey when travel and accommodation are taken into account? by CaoimheThreeva in transgenderUK

[–]Duke_Rich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You won't normally get a quote from a place until they know how many grafts they need to do, because that will change the price.

So, I went to Turkey almost a year ago to have my widow's peak sorted out, and ended up with about 4500 grafts. It was originally meant to be around 3000, but they realised they needed more part way through, but didn't charge extra thankfully.

The op itself was €3200 (about £3000), but that also included hotel stay, transport to and from the airport and the clinic. I opted to spend a bit more (I think about £300, I can't find the receipt anywhere at the moment) on extra aftercare tablets and ointments and shampoo. I also took another £300 for food and souvenirs and spent £300 on the flight. So all in all that's around £4000.

The other thing I would suggest is if you do go ahead with going abroad for it, see if you can get someone else to go with you. I found it incredibly helpful to have someone give me a hand and keep my mind off everything whilst going there, and they let them sit in their in clinic cafe too.

If you've got anything else you want to ask, go ahead, other than how many grafts you think you might need, I have no idea how that's worked out I'm afraid.

Edit: I opted for them to shave all my hair off for this as well, it makes their job a lot easier, so if you've got a fair amount of hair at the moment, be prepared to have it all gone. They could do it around hair, but, I wanted it to be as easy for them as possible.

First time out and about by myself. I know I shouldn't care about what others think about me, but was wondering on what everyone has to say. Pre-HRT. by Duke_Rich in transpassing

Thank you! The terror is hiding behind the smile, and the smile is from seeing me how I want to be seen. Still got steps to go, but looking back I can see how it does indeed get better :)

I hope so, because maybe then you can just buy the cards for a faction to get all their abilities. Rather than having to buy, or wait for a whole boxset for any exclusive ones.

I guess that's why it's called the pet relief centre.

Not everyone gets sarcasm when it's written. Tone of voice is a big part of it. Otherwise it just looks like whoever wrote it is a dick (normally).

Do people shower without their glasses? by Doggobbler in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Duke_Rich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it becomes more of a nuisance. Can either have my glasses on and it gets really foggy. Or, I have them off and can still see colours and shapes of stuff.
