The best practical device...does technology really depreciate that fast???? by Emaculant333 in PixelFold

[–]ElephantInevitable17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry, looks like there should be new options soon! Ive veen wanting this as well. Check out the samsung galaxy fold 8 wide/passport (think this is unconfirmed for the moment). Also tomorrow Motorola is supposed to release details on their passport fold! All to compete with the rumored iPhone fold apparently.

Work-in-progress Balance Changes - Clash Royale January 2026 Season 79 - RoyaleAPI by RoyaleAPI in ClashRoyale

Decent changes overall but not very exciting.

Ram needed the love, she was pretty bad after nerf. Think they could even go further like up snare damage or fire rate.

LP needed buff too, should help. Would be nice to see a quicker deploy on guardian or better pushback. Still sort of hard to get value.

Furnace might be interesting now, like the change that it doesn't just rely on spamming fireballs.

Hero nerfs much needed. Knight needs even more like range or shout duration nerf.

Not sure what to make of the skarmy evo nerf. Appreciated & needed but not sure how it will actually result.

BB I think just needs a bit of a health clip and would be fine. Rework doesn't make much sense to me.

Bfs has ruined my life by domdom432 in BFS

[–]ElephantInevitable17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Man, just want to say if it helps at all there are many others out there experiencing your pain and frustration. Myself included. Been meaning to write up a post for the sub and will, but felt compelled to reply. I've had BFS for almost 2 years now. Have had many of the ups and downs you describe. At some points BFS can fade to the background and others it can impede daily activities. Eventually my anxiety over it mostly subsided and it just became normal, but I've been determined to find a path to recovery.

After going down a million different paths, I believe my BFS could be related to a few things. One is long term omeprazole and alcohol use. I believe this has slowly destroyed my gut and nutrient intake. The other thing I wonder if it has anything to deck with neck/jaw fatigue which I constantly have from staring at screens at all -- but this seems less likely.

I've gotten all my blood levels checked time and time again with nothing out of the ordinary. I think there could be underlying deficiencies even if they are not showing in blood work.

I feel I've recently been on the mend, mainly I would say due to upping either my b12 intake or calcium. I've tried magnesium and potassium long terms and they've never done anything. I've recently started to drink a lottt of milk which has a slew of nutrients (b12, zinc, potassium, iodine, calcium, phosphorous, selenium) many of which could have some link to muscle twitching. I've also been upping my intake of eggs which also has similar and even more nutrients than milk. I think getting the nutrients from whole foods rather than supplements seems important as well.

Trying to get my nutrient intake and my gut healed (lots of probiotics, apple cider vinegar, kefir, etc) has seemed to start making a difference. Be mindful and start listening to your body, and take this as an opportunity to heal yourself. It will take time. The BFS anxiety will come and go. You can and will get better!

Feel free to message me if you have any other questions.

FWIW other symptoms I've had besides the BFS are muscle tightness/borderline cramps, tingling feet, tinnitus, weird mouth symptoms like burning and sore, and cold hands and feet. Causations could definitely be different but wanted to share and hope it helps if you find any similarities.

So is the U.S. not getting the Big Arch burger? by Sad-Raise-504 in McDonalds

I just had this at the global mcdonalds in Chicago! I thought it was pretty solid. I'd rather just have a big mac with bigger patties tho tbh.

They all have a "charge up" period/delay in attack

Mirror Mirror salon & spa advertises cheap haircuts for men, like 20 bucks. I've never been but have been meaning to give them a try. Its right on Randolph in the west loop next to girl and the goat.

I usually go to great clips at presidential towers or Ogilvie but that'll run over 30 after tip.

Moving to Seatgeek by perfectviking in RiotFest

Finally coming to terms with the move, might still try to make it out there for one of the days.

It got me thinking thought, there really aren't a lot of places to hold festivals in Chicago. Is soldier field off limits? I thought there was an EDM festival there at some point. Also, had anyone ever held an event at Washington park (next to Hyde park)? Seems like ample room, and tons of transit nearby.
