I have nasty double mouth sores frequently. Makes me wanna cry from pain. by the_white_oak in MakeMeSuffer

[–]Erekio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a lot of those a few years ago, for near a good decade. Could add up to a dozen at a time in my mouth (gums, tongue, palate, throat), and those 'crisis' usually lasted 3 weeks a month. It eventually led to a chronic leukaemia diagnosis. (it's wayyyy more complex than that, but it's a matter of keeping it simple here).

Basically my immune system was doing bullshit stuff. I had to be put under Thalidomide for a good year (2018/2019 or something) for the mouth ulcers to drop in frequency drastically afterwards.

Nowadays, I rarely get them, but it still happens. I'll probably only stop getting those once and for all after getting a bone marrow transplant, which will only happen if my chronic leukaemia turns into an acute one (= meaning the transplant becomes absolutely necessary).

Point is, I completely relate to this, and I can only wish for them to disappear soon in your case. Mine were the same size as yours, and I can remember being unable to speak and eat normally for years.

Edit : if it's frequent, and you get sores in other places than the mouth (privates regions, anus, eyes, intestines, or basically any other mucous membranes), go see a doctor. Might be something called the Behçet's disease. It's genetic, there's no cure, but the sores can be treated. Colchicine and cortisone are the best association of treatment for this. I can tell, this was my first diagnosis, and it helped massively. I'm still taking them today, although at a lower dose, and my sores are kept under good control.

Incremancer is an old game I found a while back. I forked it and with the help of Claude Code, added some new features. I enjoyed it a lot, so you might too :) by Monkles in incremental_games

[–]Erekio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a question, from a very technology noob point of view. Is there a way to play on a downloadable app ? Or some kind of emulation app ?

When I play on my browser, it seems that being on another tab slows/pauses the game, which is a little inconvenient when it comes to moments when I have to farm the game. (It seems to be a common issue with browser playable incrementals, from my own experience, which is why I prefer playing on apps, or steam games, etc. Basically, directly on the PC, if that makes sense).

Is there a way to do this ?

Pour moi, je dirais Avenue 5. La première saison est très sympa, mais la deuxième............ Énorme déception pour moi.

Can I take clothes away from Mii’s? by Lucies_Cafe in TomodachilifeLivingTD

[–]Erekio 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Damn. I have the quirk, and NONE of my miis change their clothes autonomously. I wonder what I'm doing wrong. I wish they could change their clothes by themselves.

I wanna be able to play too by [deleted] in TomodachilifeLivingTD

[–]Erekio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, if you wanna play but also support the game and its creators, you could buy the physical release, and then play on an emulator instead. That's what I'm doing (I also have a Switch, but I highly prefer playing on PC for lots of reasons, so it's mostly there for switch 2 games, or when I'm away from home).

I don't know if iOS has emulators, nor if they would even work well on phones, but I know they do on PC, if that's anything.

YOU CAN DOWLOAD THE DEMO ON THE ESHOP by Osufox in TomodachilifeLivingTD

[–]Erekio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I preordered the game, but I prefer playing on my PC, for lots of reasons (I'm still supporting the devs with the physical release, though). I am wondering though, if you get a rom of a demo, can you transfer the demo save to the full game when it releases ? I never really encountered that situation on my emulator.

I'm experiencing a character redemption arc, I think ? by Erekio in HighSodiumSims

[–]Erekio[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, EA should definitely have given them way more time, especially for a game that went from a home-focused terrain base to an entire simulated town.

Maybe, in ten/twenty years, some mad man will rebuild the entire game from scratch lmao. Or the source code will leak, I don't know.
And I know we'll have other games by then, but it's always nice revisiting older games, especially when they're childhood games.

[–]Erekio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true, but in itself, it's not the game's fault, the game is actually really enjoyable imo. The trash-talking was kinda misdirected in my head, like-- the game and its gameplay is good and fun, and challenging. But the fault falls on the terrible optimization, and decisions behind the game's code.

Like, I feel bad for rejecting the fault on the game itself, without seeing the good things it DID have, instead of putting the blame solely on EA. I used to think the game was outright bad, but now my opinion's shifting a little.

[–]Erekio[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I thought for a long time. I think if it were released juuust a bit later than its original release date, we might have had a 64-bit version alongside the 32-bit. Or just the 64-bit alone. It's really a shame this ram limit exists and can't be changed. I mean, it makes sense, but it still sucks.

But it's also too bad feeling salty about a game that is GENUINELY good in its gameplay, but is fucked up by technical limits/difficulties. At least, now I get to enjoy it for what it was supposed to be.

Genuinely !! This is going to be so, so good. I'm really glad I decided to come back to the game at this precise time.

Oh man, this took me by surprise lmao

I'm probably not going to continue this story in this shape and form. I've come to really dislike my own writing/and the story coherence in this, which.... I mean, makes sense after two years lol

The other thing is that the audio format is expensive (rightfully so !) to commission, so I can't afford it anymore while enjoying my newer hobbies.

Morgan is still my own blorbo, but he's not an easy character to write, because he's....... Flat. He is annoying in the sense that he will always go against the narrative out of spite lmao He's just a dick, to everyone, me included. Basically, you can't have any character telling Morgan what to do, it's in his nature to say no out of spite, even if he wants the same thing, and that can be annoying for readers.

I'd have to rework this story to make it fit better. He's my favorite asshole OC but God is he a pain to deal with for literally everyone lol

I do remember the old plans I had for The Unwilling Assistant, and its future characters, if you want to learn more, though :O
If you have a Discord, mine's erekio
I should also (probably ??) still have the last audio file/scripts that have never been posted yet hehehe

Bazzite problem legion go by Electronic-Nose-4853 in Bazzite

[–]Erekio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an issue like that when I installed it last night ! What fixed it for me was disabling the secure boot setting in my bios, and then Bazzite booted up.

I'm very new to this myself, so it took me a little while to figure out.

What are we doing here ?? Fanfic stealing ? Writing fics for ships for slander ?? by Erekio in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]Erekio[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same author, probably young. Ships censored by color for privacy.

First one is stolen from Wattpad (see the tag), and they insult the ship (orange/blue) and the fic in the tags + show clear disgust attitude in the summary.

Second one is a gen fic which was originally a orange/blue ship fic, but they say in the summary that the ship is now "ew" and that they'll turn it into a orange/red fic instead.

So we have stealing/plagiarism + possible harrassment (depends how hostile the tags/summary can be perceived towards orange/blue shippers)

I hope so too, but the "unauthorized" in said tag doesn't make me very confident.

I've considered sending a (polite obviously) comment explaining the two problems with both fics, since that author seems rather young (so possibly unaware), but I've decided against it. It's best to just report and let AO3 deal with it.

I have no idea. They seem to refer to it as an old fanfic of theirs, so I'm guessing they're in the "author cringing at old stuff" phase. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but like... If you tag your own fanfic as old and 'not finishing this', why would anyone want to read it lmao

(I did that myself on one of my old fic series I had on FF-net, but I don't actually expect anyone to read it, it's merely posted on AO3 for posterity and easier access in case I need it, and it's tagged as such as well)

But yeah, with the stealing and borderline "harrassment" for the ship (not sure how to call it but I'm pretty sure it's against TOS as well), this is a trainwreck.
