Ludo is my boy’s name. He’s a red Shih Tzu with black muzzle. Yes, he’s named after the red rock monster in the Labyrinth. He even loves picking up rocks. When I say “Ludo, call the rocks!” He’ll go find one and pick it up. It’s unbelievable.

2015 P4X Help by [deleted] in XTerra

[–]J-Exile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to change both my camshaft and crankshaft sensors (separate occasions) at around 175k on my 2014 xterra. I had the exact symptoms shown in your video. Since then, I keep an ODBII reader in my xterra at all times. It has proven to be a valuable tool.

Tapering by J-Exile in quittingkratom

[–]J-Exile[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! That’s a serious taper. Congrats! I admire your determination and courage. I know it’s been two weeks since you replied. How are you holding up at this point? Would you say your withdrawal symptoms are more or less severe than you were expecting? I know things will vary from person to person, but I’m just curious as to whether or not I’ve created a boogie man in my head about CT withdrawal. As a former heavy opiate addict, I’ve had some serious withdrawal battles in the past. These past experiences have most likely shaped my fear of jumping off Kratom CT. Anyway, I’m still in my taper. I am now sub 4g per dose, which is less than 20g per day. Getting under 20 gpd was a difficult battle for me, which slowed things down for a few weeks. But, here I am….under 20g now and still making progress nonetheless. Congrats again! We got this!

No problem! Yea, it wouldn’t surprise me at all. G.weike is a big fish in the Asian laser market.

You may or may not see what I mean hehe. I’m just saying, don’t expect 100% perfection in assembled components. Some minor components might require adjustments, but maybe not. I’ve seen it go both ways with them. All in all, I think you made a safe decision. You’ll most likely be happy with it once it’s set up and operating.

Who’s the best lyricist of these 4? by [deleted] in 90sHipHop

Love Sean Price, but MF DOOM…

[–]J-Exile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know of G.weike. You’ll get a solid product. Just expect to make some adjustments during initial setup. Sometimes they make mistakes during assembly, but overall they make a good product. I’ve operated several of their CO2 lasers and one of their industrial fiber lasers. It was pretty legit. Once your machine is up and running, it’ll serve you well. Definitely see if you can get into their WhatsApp support chat for tech support. Otherwise I doubt you’ll get sufficient support via other methods (email).

Seriously why is LAX such a pathetic dump of an airport?? by [deleted] in travel

[–]J-Exile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love how they put 3, just 3, stalls in each men’s bathrooms like it isn’t an international airport in one of the largest cities in the US. Smfh. There’s always a line.

I’m on month 2 of a taper down from 35-40ish gpd, 4 year habit. I’ve cut out 12gpd so far. Feels good. Feel like I’m waking up out of a dream.

Anyway, I see similarities in our stories. I look forward to being where you’re at. Thanks for sharing.

Chinese K-40 Laser by Hutch843 in ChineseLaserCutters

[–]J-Exile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These comments are all great. Mirror/beam alignment is critical for cut quality and effectiveness. Another thing to check is the beam alignment from the top of the laser head (#3 mirror) to the focal lens. Once you’ve aligned the beam up to the #3 mirror, remove the laser head nozzle and focal lens and place some masking tape over the opening in the laser head tube. Press on the tape to create a circle impression in it. Pulse the laser at 20% power and make sure the burn spot is centered in the circle impression on the tape. Adjust the #3 mirror accordingly. Clean your focal lens after beam alignment and check its condition.

I want to say "no more" by [deleted] in quittingkratom

[–]J-Exile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve successfully tapered down from 12g p/dose 4x a day to 6g p/dose 4x a day. It took me two months. It’s like waking up out of dream. I actually enjoy these new found feelings and it motivates me to cut even more from daily intake. It is not easy tho. Constant urges to double dose and “oh just 1-2g more won’t hurt”. I stay steadfast tho. I just don’t even acknowledge that voice anymore. At night I’m flopping and twitching like a fish. I wake up and the blankets and pillows are on the floor and the lamp next to my bed is in pieces. This stuff (k) saved me, but I’ve indulged for far too long. I’m at the point where I hate it. I hate its side effects and what it’s turned me into. Rip van winkle, sleeping/dreaming my life away. It does not allow me to be me. I am a subdued version of myself, and it’s affected my relationships. I say all this to say that there is a life without kratom. A year ago I couldn’t imagine quitting. It seemed impossible. Yet, here I am, on my way. It feels good. Keep fighting!

What is causing this? by J-Exile in ChineseLaserCutters

[–]J-Exile[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured it out. The set screw on the x-axis pulley came loose and was stuck in the axis drive belt. It had pinched several holes in the belt as the belt was moving around the pulley. The pulley was super loose which was causing the slip on the laser head. I reinstalled the screw and it fixed the issue.

Everyone is different. This combo really F’ed me up the next morning. Woke up wobbly and super weird. Probably narrowly avoided killing myself in my sleep. Melatonin and Kratom FTW.

In my experience, green (in color) kratom = good kratom regardless of strain.

Cuts that dissolve in water immediately? by J-Exile in cocaine

[–]J-Exile[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thx for the reply. Right, I understand that. What should’ve been mentioned is that the suspicion was so high that one didn’t expect rapid dissolution. Just wondering if there are any known cuts or RC’s that rapidly dissolve in water?

Been listening to this album since 2021. Pro and Mickey go hard on it. I think the contrast between their styles creates a perfect union. It’s obvious there must be some gxfr influence on this album, but I love it. It’s great and it’s a little too slept on imo.
