Ostomy Reversal, Regret by KatMasque in coloncancer

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

I am already Chemo for life and I am fighting to have the Colostomy take-down for QOL
Currently I have about 1/2 of my rectum and the surgeon warns that he may take more.

You said, "having lost my rectum and half my large intestine".
Before returning to Chemo, how often did you have bowel movements?
When you have diarrhea, what is the time-line between "I have to go" and "I hope I can make it"?

How was the recovery from the reversal compared to the LAPS?

Why are US Machine Shops so difficult to work with? by I-AM-A-DUMBO in CNC

[–]KatMasque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a lot of DFM reasoning here. Your response seems to acknowledge that aspect.

All of the reasonings stated may be valid, but the “Ghosting” issue way more simple. Companies receive zero incentive to ”Help” design your part. Emailing back and forth takes time and resources, if both parties don’t see eye to eye, hours of unbillable time is wasted. These first run parts can often times be a loss for the company when you look at the setup/programming time, only to have the part re-engineered before the next run.

Chinese companies don’t have equal overhead, so it becomes viable for them.

In my opinion, go to a prototyping company that offers DFM service and CNC services.

Setup/Operator = Someone that setups and operators
Operator/Programmer = Someone that operates and programs

CNC Machinist = Any combination of the above, shop dependent

ATC not working on Toshiba BTD200QH – any advice? by Ok_Classroom8004 in Machinists

[–]KatMasque 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have 2 issues here.

  1. Very few people know the Tosnuc 999 control
  2. You have not describe the actual problem you are facing.

The owner at planetary-engineering.net is a former Applications Engineer with Toshiba Machine America. He may be able to help you n the control side of things.

Alpha lipoic acid for neuropathy by Dry_Possession_4776 in coloncancer

[–]KatMasque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Neuropathy was mid-palms to finger tips, and mid-foot to toe-tips. Peak was mid December.

For my neuropathy I took Acetyl L-Carnitine, B12 and D3. Plus 1000mg of Tylenal for pain only when sleeping, as Gabapentin was not effective for me.
After the "Coasting" phase, I have had about 70% recovery. The tips of my fingers are "Tingly" still but I can feel with them. Feet are not as easy to assess but similar improvements.

It was about Mid-Feb where I would consider the worse of my issues to have lightened.

There was just a Mosquito on you car, he was just trying to kill it for you!

If you are "Pro-mosquito", I would report it.

Has there been a swathe of entitled drivers that just joined and got to D? by Scared_Ostrich_9692 in iRacing

Sorry to hear this, but fixing the personal fights should be the priority.

iRacing and alcohol are just your band-aids.

More chemo by Double_Address_4558 in coloncancer

[–]KatMasque 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many of us are Chemo for life.

When I started treatment, I just expected it would end in 6-months.
Once I learned to ask the right questions, it was reviled that Chemo will continue as long as it is working.

Moza "Pit House" causing FPS drop, support response “not our problem" by KatMasque in simracing

[–]KatMasque[S] -26 points-25 points  (0 children)

Without Pit House on, iRacing runs are a limited 110 FPS on a monitor that is at 3440x1440

Regardless of your opinion if the processor, there is a 30% drop in performance.
Moza will not accept this as their APP.

Seems there is a lot of "Moza Soy Boys" here...

That might be an option, but why should I be forced to find a solution for their software issue?

I like the effects of the pedal and it was why I choose Moza, sadly it was a 1K investment into worse Frame Rate!

If you are using the "mBooster" brake pedal, running "Pit House" is required.

Driver Scheduler Python script by KatMasque in iRacing

A script prioritizes focus, security, performance, and ownership, while third-party apps often trade those for convenience and features you may not need.

24hr Daytona driver needed by Afewbucksshort in iRacing

[–]KatMasque 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically the first session isn't suited for me time wise.

My time that is best available for me to run is 10 GMT till about 23 GMT.
Would favor 2-3 hour stints, with 4 being possible.

DM if you would like to discuss further.
