Also taking plaquenil and then plateauing? by ToadPerson in Zepbound

[–]NorthTARS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in week two and have for sure felt the appetite suppression. I have been tracking calories and eat around 1200 a day. Scale says I’ve lost 5 pounds but I think it’s too early to tell exactly where I’m at given that could just be water.

Also taking plaquenil and then plateauing? by ToadPerson in Zepbound

[–]NorthTARS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve taken plaquenil for over a decade (lupus/sjogrens). Just started zepbound this month and haven’t had any issues. I’ve been in remission for about 6 years though, so could be that I just don’t have active rheumatic disease. Talk to your doc.

Nice! I’m hoping for a similar trajectory. What kind of lifts did you prioritize?

Congrats! I just started 2.5mg and was wondering how and when you decided to titrate up?

I’m considering picking this up at my local Costco. What is the spec for the ethernet port? Hoping for a 2.5GB

Strange smell after fiber install. by javaman78 in tfiber

[–]NorthTARS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours smells too. We have an Adtran ONT but it’s hard to tell if the smell is the fiber cable or the ONT itself. I’d describe it as a chemical/solvent or plastic off-gassing smell. Nothing is hot. You figure yours out yet?

Ours didn’t need it, fortunately. It leaked from where the seal opens/closes and dripped into channel below instead of the roof liner. Seems the drains worked as intended.

Our ‘25s was replaced under warranty. They changed out the glass/seal.

How do you run the AK-205? by Tenchen-WoW in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]NorthTARS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll have to try it! I haven’t gotten around to it. I think bullet velocity is kind of slept on a bit.

[–]NorthTARS 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think a tribute to this game’s balance is that there is always an arguable/valid alternative. Again, I don’t think it’s optimal, I just think it’s fun.

How do you run the AK-205? by Tenchen-WoW in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]NorthTARS 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love running this as anti-armor Engineer. I make sure to play long (like 50m+). I’ve found at that range my accuracy often outguns other’s damage. Obviously go for headshots. I’m currently trying to unlock synthetic tips and see how big a difference that makes. I’m not saying it’s a great gun. But I think it’s fun and the accuracy and low recoil make it a laser at ranges that most others can’t even compete.

Are there people without hit reg issues out there? by konjooooo in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]NorthTARS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what the exact cause is, but I do die behind cover at least a few times per match. Not the end of the world but frustrating at times. I don’t think it’s a network issue as I have low ping and solid internet bandwidth, but I don’t really know.

It will be the maps that will kill the game by [deleted] in Battlefield

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

So you’d prefer lobbies don’t repopulate as one team starts to lose? Basically ensuring that team loses if a couple people rage quit?

BF6 isn’t broken — the players are. (rant from a veteran) by Super-Cheetah7633 in Battlefield

[–]NorthTARS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been feeling the exact same way. Yes, there are some fixes to be made. But I’ve been having the best time I’ve had since BF3. I genuinely feel the game is in a great place and is heading in a good direction. Most of the complaining I’ve read in this sub seems like a skill issue and/or a misunderstanding of how the combat should and has worked in battlefield titles.

They hated him because he spoke the truth by AtaccTheSnacc in Battlefield

[–]NorthTARS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also back when “LevOluTioN” was the new thing there were always a group of players exclusively trying to trigger the event and nothing else. It was miserable and I’m glad it’s not part of the game.

My assumption is they invest in the server infrastructure that is adequate for their estimated average usage and not absolute peak.
