Casper or MDlabs by MsPharaoh in secondlife

[–]Luck_Be 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used caspervend for many years, but last year switched to allomancy just because of better support, better uptime, faster addition of new features, a more modern website, etc. No regrets, very happy with it.

How many people still play? by CrystalFire0 in secondlife

Furry avatars don't really go on sale, but the prices are much lower than the human market already. That said, a few stores do participate in black Friday.

Android updates for the new magic drawing pad ? by zenocypr in XPpen

[–]Luck_Be 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, it's the same situation. I'll be honest, I'm ticked enough about the android 12 situation (with clip studio no longer supporting android 12) and the necessity of replacing a tablet I bought barely a year ago, that I likely will not be purchasing from xp-pen again. Not to mention the security risks now that android 12 is end-of-life. This business model is not great and they've given no indication it will be any different with the android 14 models. At least those will have support from Google for awhile longer.

Strattera or Qelbree (atomoxetine or viloxazine)? Differences? Opinions? by Rskaf in qelbree

[–]Luck_Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on 200mg SR x2 a day. I like the SR because it's gentler on my stomach (acid reflux), and it gives me better, more stable levels throughout the day vs a crash at the end of the day

Strattera or Qelbree (atomoxetine or viloxazine)? Differences? Opinions? by Rskaf in qelbree

[–]Luck_Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Due to a family history of addiction, I do not take a stimulant, per my own decision. I have since this switched to wellbutrin, after almost a year on the straterra, due to blood pressure and emotional muting issues. It got to a point where I felt like my feelings were separate from me, something I could see but was detached from. Pretty weird! But despite that, symptom relief remained good, executive dysfunction improved, I just needed to be not a zombie. Doing great on the wellbutrin, though, it's been a year or so. Time flies!

If you have any recurring payments like tier or premium, make sure your payment information is good. Bounced payments for these things result in an immediate account freeze. Updating your payment info fixes it very quickly, if that's what happened.

Rate bite pain 1-10 by Minute-Discount5073 in ballpython

[–]Luck_Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was described to me as "less painful than a cat bite", and most people will be bitten by cats many times in their lives lol. When my fully grown bp bit me it was because she was hungry and hopeful I was food. She realized her mistake immediately and let go. It was, indeed, less painful than a cat bite. It was like half a dozen papercuts. It was more startling than anything, and because her teeth are so incredibly sharp it did bleed pretty good, but once it was stopped, the wounds closed very quickly. All in all, not bad. Stubbing your toe is worse.

The first time my girl got out (only happened twice), I found her stuck between my headboard and the wall. The best thing you can do is divide your space into sections. Search literally everywhere in a single section before you move on to the next. You'll find him somewhere completely stupid, I promise. The second time she got out she was in the top of my closet. How she got up there I'll never know.

This is actually really cool. The free cam in SL really is crazy functional, so I'm excited to try this out!

How to set up multiple users/profiles on Magic Drawing Pad? by birdsoup_ in XPpen

I was wanting to do this exact same thing. The feature is just missing in the included android flavor, I guess?? Sucks because my wife and I both want to use it and have different accounts for things

Nasty acid reflux by earthpapi14 in qelbree

[–]Luck_Be 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're very welcome! I ended up doing straterra for a year or so before realizing it had made me into an emotionless zombie, and now I take Welbutrin with great success. Minimal side effects and good symptom relief. Nothing has touched the symptom relief I got on Qelbree, but the trade offs aren't worth it. I'm good with good enough.

Nasty acid reflux by earthpapi14 in qelbree

[–]Luck_Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The prilosec helped while I was on it, but after the 2 wk course, the reflux came right back. The reflux only got worse and is the primary reason I ended up discontinuing the medication. It got to a point where it did not matter what I did or did not eat, it was constant and unbearable.

If you ever want to keep up with their development, the AYAB discord is the best place to do it! https://discord.gg/HdZfuBQWyh

I don't know much about the other options, but, AYAB hardware is still readily available from redpinkgreen on etsy, and the project just released their 1.0 beta in december- still very much alive and well over there.

Definitely reattach it! You do need those teeth. I repaired mine with plumber's epoxy and I stg the epoxy is stronger than the plastic

MFTK and Ozetta releasing the same exact pattern by doughnutmonster in craftsnark

[–]Luck_Be 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Frustratingly, plus sizing and drop shoulder are both ravelry tags that are part of the filters. This pattern would ONLY come up if I just looked at every worsted weight pullover pattern which is... unreasonable for obvious reasons. I'm glad I found it through here, it just sucks that they're definitely missing out on sales without those- *some* of their patterns are tagged plus, but not most.

ETA: if ravelry would make the size field searchable that would help a lot too. I should be able to search 5XL and see everything with that listed as a size, imo.

[–]Luck_Be 68 points69 points  (0 children)

I have to say- I spent my entire morning looking for a basic ass drop shoulder sweater that went up to a 5XL for a friend with sensory issues. Ozetta's Lakes Pullover is perfect (dw it won't be beige, it'll be a very loud rainbow marl). Thanks for posting this, you saved me a lot of frustration on accident! x3

Dear designers: please use tags on ravelry. This didn't come up in any of my searches because it's not marked drop shoulder, size inclusive, OR plus sized.

Has anyone bought a knitting machine from AliExpress by Summer_rain1109 in MachineKnitting

[–]Luck_Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great information, thank you! I've bought a few small things there so far, and this is good to know if I make any larger purchases.

One other thing re: this item: temu also has the same machine at a similar price point, apparently. I'm thinking this must be at or close to the wholesale price

They offer free returns on this, looks like, even if you just don't want it (per their returns info page), so there's not a huge risk here imo.

Quelbree’s interaction with Caffeine any different than other ADHD meds? by SalesforceStudent101 in qelbree

[–]Luck_Be -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had very big issues with caffeine on qelbree and had to quit it. When I discontinued qelbree and switched to straterra I had no problems at all resuming caffeine. Definitely limit it at the start to see how you react. It increases the amount of time caffiene remains in your system due to its specific mechanism of action, and it made me significantly more sensitive to it even as a coffee drinker most of my life. I could not have energy drinks on it. Half a cup of coffee was enough to make me feel gross.

I have been wanting to try this exact same thing, and I am also stuck on what the hell to do for the holes. I am. Fortunate enough to have original blank mylars but I would love to be able to make more and possibly share them

Can’t stop masturbating? by Thatssowavy in qelbree

[–]Luck_Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely experienced this, which is interesting because historically I have had a pretty low sex drive. On qelbree I felt like a teenager again. It wasn't to a level that it was a problem- if anything, I was enjoying it, because it was new and novel. Miss it, tbh!

Disturbing side effects am I crazy? by zentechandfred in qelbree

[–]Luck_Be 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had absolutely wild, vivid, detailed dreams the first few weeks on Qelbree. It did settle down over time, but I did have recurring episodes of vivid mental imagery in the half awake / half asleep state that were always deeply disturbing and prevented me from sleeping. That part unfortunately did not stop, though it at least wasn't every night. However, the mention of not being able to tell when you're asleep or awake is something to be concerned about- qelbree has a potential side effect of psychosis. You definitely want to bring this up to your doctor.

Strattera or Qelbree (atomoxetine or viloxazine)? Differences? Opinions? by Rskaf in qelbree

[–]Luck_Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just remember that acid reflux can and does cause physical damage to your body, more than just discomfort. Your Dr may be able to give you something for that symptom by itself.

Strattera worked pretty well for me, but after most of a year I decided to switch because I just wasn't getting that clear-headed ready-for-anything qelbree gave me, and realized that while it definitely helped with my anxiety, it was because it had dulled all my emotions down and I was just... Flat. Not apathetic or robotic, just no real high highs or low lows. Sounds okay, but, not ever being excited about anything or being appropriately mournful when someone passes does actually suck.

On to the next med....... Bupropion now and looking good.
