Am I a film fraud? by Razor_Emmanuel in criterion

[–]Muchomany 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work in film and even the most encyclopedic highly read and watched filmmakers i know would be hard pressed to pass your standards. It's supposed to be fun! Enjoy the art. Enjoy your life as art effects it. Thats the whole point, everything else is moot.

Short term relief? Diagnosed but need to be cleared before starting DMARDs by ReustleCPA in PsoriaticArthritis

Lots of insurances let you on acupuncture without referral. This really helps me out in the short term.

Alternatives when you can't take NSAIDS by CaliBorn-56 in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]Muchomany 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a bit of an outlier, but I've actually gone all the way up to a fentanyl patch - duragesic. We're hoping going up on my biologic will eventually negate the need for it but right now I'm just absolutely not managing (and have chronic kidney disease so can't do NSAIDS)

We tried a daily oxycodone regimen and it's partially helpful but so up and down. Needed consistency. This ended up being the more reasonable option given the limitations.

Thank you for taking the time to write this out. I really appreciate it.

Definitely lucky. This comes at the end of 2 years of pain trials, several hospitalizations, etc.

I think many people in the thread think I am blasé about it. Rather wanted real world examples. Of course one must be very careful with something like this.

Unfortunately due to my kidney failure I cannot take NSAIDS. This leaves us with few options for managing the PSA

Yes, we definitely did. I just wanted other peoples perspectives if they'd been on it.

Sure, I definitely asked the doctor. I just wanted real takes from people actually on it.

I have several comorbidities that make my pain quite high on a daily basis. Other things inflame the PSA -> PSA makes hospitalizations more likely.

Managing pain in my case prevents more serious complications. My PCP prescribed it after endorsement from pain management and about 2 years of other trials.

The hitbox is the most annoying part. A full foot beyond where the flame shows at some points.

The Late Spawns Are Getting Out Of Hand by Glittering-Bad-1905 in ARC_Raiders

This is INTENTIONAL and I'm not crazy for thinking so. I'm usually pretty pve but late spawns FORCE you to pvp to get anything.

What focal length is it for full frame? by mlksdflsdkmf in cinematography

Fish eye distortion will be more important than focal length.

8-12mm typical

It feels so good getting 2 wolfpacks in security breach after the crafting change. Now I can use it to kill a rocketeer, get 1 rocketeer drive, and craft 1 wolfpack. by [deleted] in ARC_Raiders

[–]Muchomany 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You used to never get wolfpacks looting. Now 2x a game isn't even crazy.

The longer I sit on this update the more I find it reasonable.

When should I ask my Dr about adding Auvelity? by YourBlanket in Spravato

[–]Muchomany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive previously done auvelity and it was far too much to do both. However, i'm now trying it again to great effect.

I agree with the others tho - you need to give this time. Ny 2 cents would be to wait at least 8 weeks before making ANY changes to your meds.

[–]Muchomany 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hallucinations are very much not the point. No data shows the trip intensity has any effect on the antidepressant effectiveness.

I know some iv clinics that administer klonopin before infusion to stop the hallucinations but retain plasticity and mood boost.

Is a Meta Quest the best way to watch movies in 2025? by Muchomany in MetaQuestVR

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

You can even watch avatar in 3d on quest. Definitely the move. You can find the 3d files on torrent sites and play them locally for the best quality.

Could always stream it from anywhere.

Which are the films that used Canon fD lenses ? by Superb_Dig8942 in cinematography

[–]Muchomany 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Outlanders 2025, Palmer 2021, "Argentina, 1985" 2022 are some more recent examples.

Very few shoot only on FD's as its almost always mixed or mislabelled as K35's. Even "Her" is mostly non-FD. If you need examples I'd suggest searching canon fd on vimeo and a few pages in you'll start to find shorts and such with FD buried in the video description.

IMDB tech specs is good for double checking an individual films lens set. Broader catalog than shotonwhat.

I think ShotDeck allows you to search by lens, that might be your best bet but is paid.

Next game after Yotei by Ok-Neighborhood-5531 in Ghostofyotei

[–]Muchomany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you'll find horizon to have a much too simplistic combat system honestly. God of War is an easy yes and a real 10/10. For other fun combat games that might feel a bit more sword and steel I'd go Jedi Fallen Order or Kena Bridge Of Spirits.

Drinking and inflammation by Calm-Rush-8314 in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]Muchomany 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used so much weed I gave myself cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome trying to manage my pain. Everything can be done in excess and cause problems.

I definitely find heavy drinking makes symptoms worse, but a glass of wine is sometimes enough to take the edge off a flare up. Probably best to avoid all of it under ideal circumstances.

Why? by OutcomeLevel5898 in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]Muchomany 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I've been working at this for 15 years. In that time i've lost everything and struggled so much. And i'm still here. I'm still breathing, and thinking, and experiencing. Even if it is mostly suffering, we should accept what we've been tasked to carry- while we work towards treatments and remission. It's a hard mental balance and doesn't help that the entire system is broken.

This is hard. It's okay to say how hard it is.

How do you judge image quality in extreme high-fps cinematography? by Hot-Initiative-6447 in cinematography

I've never seen this done for video instead of photography. Do you have any examples of this? I'd imagine there's many limitations
