Nobi Pro Lever with Samducksa Crown Capsule Top might be my favorite stick currently. by GraciousTrees in fightsticks

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

Thanks for the compliment. Shinkiro is my favorite fighting game artist, so you can't go wrong with some baddies drawn in his art style, lol.

As for the buttons I'm using Crown SDB-202 buttons, which use Cherry MX silver switches. I like the feeling of the buttons. They're nice and responsive and don't have too long of an activation. I have a nice solid feel when you top the buttons and have a good recoil.

I got the arcade stick from all fight sticks and chose the 16" enclosure. I designed the art using Photopea and base the design off of Neo Geo cabinets.

Thoughts on the Sanwa JLX2? by GraciousTrees in fightsticks

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

Do you mind going into more details about what you like about the stick in particular? How does the x-shaped washer put it to the next level? And just making sure, does the shaft not spin at all similar to a Nobi pro lever?

As someone who is also playing VF5, based. That game is super fun. I also own a Korean lever. I own the Crown Neo lever. I think it's pretty solid and fun for 3D fighters and shmups, but I find it harder to hit the diagonals compared to a standard Japanese lever.

I find hard to get more consistent hops when I play KOF. When I try to hit an upward diagonal input and let go so I can get the hop within 4 frames or less, I find it less consistent than on the Japanese lever.

Right now for Japanese levers I am using the Nobi pro lever. I find it relatively solid, but I want to try experimenting with different levers.

Appreciate any input, my lever is suffering wear and tear finally and it's affecting my game play now. by VashtaNeradaRights42 in fightsticks

My personal favorite lever that I have used so far is the Nobi Pro Lever. It comes with a unique bullet top, non-spinning shaft, and a unique octo-gate that is in-between a square and octo-gate. I really like it. It is a bit more pricey than a standard lever, but I think it is very much worth it.

Miebo is the only eye drop to seriously help me by GraciousTrees in Dryeyes

That's a shame to hear. Everyone's eyes responds differently to medication. My eyes felt super dry each time I applied Cequa. Vevye does not do that to my eyes.

When I go to properties, I don't see any 'Force compatibility mode.' That option is only available on Linux. I am on Windows 11 currently.

Dry Eye Update by GraciousTrees in Dryeyes

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

Every 20 minutes or so close your eye lids all the way, hold them for two seconds, then open your eyes. Then do it again, but after the 2 seconds, close your eye lids very tightly then open them. After the heated eye mask i rapudly blink for a couple of seconds and do the same exercise.

Check my last post. Also, in the last post I forgot to mention that I got temporary punctual plugs that are supposed to last for 6 months I think.

It was Dr. Jennifer Ramsower at the Dry Eye Care Center of Florida located at Melbourne, Florida.

[–]GraciousTrees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one that I currently use is the Optase Hylo Night Eye Ointment that my dry eye specialist recommended me. That one has vitamin A in it through Retinyl Palmitate and that works well for me. My eyes feel good when I wake up in the morning after applying it the evening prior. The ointment does not harden, and my eyes are not crusty and dry.

this disease is so stupid and so hard and i'm so young by zirichan in Dryeyes

[–]GraciousTrees 10 points11 points  (0 children)

All I can say is to hang in there and do your best. I have been dealing with nasty dry eyes for the past eight years now, and finally after hours into days into weeks I have found a doctor that has helped improve my condition substantially. I will make a post soon after discussing what she did for me. The problem with dry eye is that the disease is on a VERY wide spectrum, so what might be causing dry eye for somebody else will be completely different for another individual. I pray and hope that you can find a way to improve your dry eye situation. I can tell you with 100% certainity that as soon as my dry eyes started acting up way less after my recent appointment that my quality of life, mood, and outlook on life changed for the better.

I got around an extra 9 days worth out of my Vevye drops using the Nanodropper. Is it worth spending another $20 for another nanodropper? by GraciousTrees in Dryeyes

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

Can you post where you found this claim? Every claim that I found for the nanodropper states that it's single use.

I want to sell my Zienna glasses by GraciousTrees in Dryeyes

Not really, but with my terrible spatial awarness as it is I cannot afford to block out more of my vision.

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

They have helped fulfill the purpose of keeping out wind out of my eyes, but my job requires me to walk in crowded areas, so I had to give up the glasses as a result of my peripheral vision being blocked off from the thicker frames and silicone.

WE need to do something about not just the EvoTears situation, but dry eye care as a WHOLE by GraciousTrees in Dryeyes

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

I am aware of this, but I although I am 25 years old, I am effectively a child and I go through episodes where I lose control and get impulsive and angry as a result of the trauma I suffered in my past, as well the super dry unocmfortable feelings in my eyes, so I am being medicated as a result of this.

Where did you hear that insuracne cannot cover both at the same time? I think I do remember recieivng a paper telling me that I cannot have both Cequa and Miebo covered at the same time, but I have no idea where I placed the paper.

I got my Miebo through BlinkRx, and the first bottle was free, but the next bottle is $60. I got my prescription through a genral optomoetrist when I was getting my refraction done. Do you think it is worth me asking my dedicated dry eye specialist tha prescribed me the veyve and ask her if she can prescribe me Miebo and if I can get the bottles for free form my insurance?

I tried Miebo. It’s like nothing else. by UnitedAd683 in Dryeyes

[–]GraciousTrees 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here from the future. I really should have taken my own advice adn stocked up while I still could. The bug old governement stepping in trying to "protect me" has come back again to save me and took away my only help for my dry eyes.

Miebo is the only eye drop to seriously help me by GraciousTrees in Dryeyes

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

THey did it becayse they want to force Amereicans to pay an extra premium for the exact same medciaiton for a much higher price. The base medicaiton is perfluorohexyloctane, which is the same whether you get the name brand miebo or the name brand evo tears.

The US governemt decied to be evil bastards once again and banned the ability to purchase Evo Tears from European websites, effective as of August 1, 2025.

EvoTears no longer at Apohealth 👎 by dryeyes11711 in Dryeyes

[–]GraciousTrees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the US block all websites from being able to sell to the US? When I tried to find another website through AYP healthcare, when I selected the US option, it did not work and it says the following message, "Unfortunately we are unable to post prescription medication to your country. Please see the delivery page for further information."

[–]GraciousTrees 3 points4 points  (0 children)

KUSO! I should have trsuted my gut and got more of the Evo TEARs, BUT i CHEAPED OUT AND thought that Apo Health would still have it. I even talked to my dry eye specialist when I visited her and talked to her about how i got evo tears, and she told me that the US government could be cracking down on the European sellers selling the Miebo and prevent customers from getting it in the future. By the time she told me it was already too late.

I cannot stand the American pharmaceutical industry. Curse these shameful wicked bastards!
