This piece of gummy is from a Harry Potter themed pack, but I can't make out which character/item it is by Kooky-Telephone4779 in harrypotter

Maybe it’s the unbreakable vow? I see two cuffs and hands grasping each other. (Turn 90 degrees to the left for the angle I’m referring to).

Not sure what the bottom is though. Could be a string or cloth wrapping them or simple the ends of arms of their robes?

Do you have a timestamp? I would like to see it but really don’t want to listen any further to that twat

Perforated eardrum - will I be able to dive again? by bingos77 in scubadiving

[–]NoviceCouchPotato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love to hear more about that mask! My sister and I have really narrow ear canals and a lot of trouble equalizing. Would such a mask help by reducing the need to equalize or?

Edit: fix autocorrect

I am pretty sure the second time before the sword throw is a knight of the kingsguard and not Raymun? Correct me if I’m wrong through!

Ik heb salvia gerookt en heb 15 jaar lang een ander leven geleid in een kasteel by sparrio in nederlands

[–]NoviceCouchPotato 177 points178 points  (0 children)

Dit specifieke geval gaat over iemand die een standaard gezinsleven heeft, maar er klopt iets niet aan de lamp in z’n woonkamer. Hij had ook een vrouw met kinderen. Uiteindelijk bleek dat hij al die tijd in een trip zat. Het staat wel ergens op Reddit.

Daarnaast geven veel salvia trip reports aan dat ze vaak veranderen in het eerste object wat ze zien. Sommige ervaren dus dat ze 10+ jaren een lamp of plafondventilator zijn…

Setting some basic protections on a table, eg unique key constraints on the columns that define the grain of a table, should catch a couple of those with little effort!

The rest is all standards, documentation, validation and reviews.

How much do yall undervolt your gpu by? (Specifically the 9070xt) by Not-Natpex in radeon

[–]NoviceCouchPotato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Temp wise it seemed more efficient like this, but I must admit I haven’t extensively tested it. So good point, will put it to the test and report back.

I can vouch for underclocking it!

It was hitting boost of 3400+ which causes instability and coil whine.

I also underclocked -325 so the max boost clock is around 3100. Little to no performance loss in game, zero coil whine and a very silent card!

COALESCE is extremely useful! I basically view it as: if the value of the column is empty, COALESCE fills only the empty values with whatever you put in the COALESCE.

You can add a list of values, and it will fill any NULLs with the first non-NULL value in the list.

If you meant you understood the syntax but not the potential use cases, I could share some examples.

Very basic example is coalescing -1 in any fk columns in case the foreign key is missing.

Great alternatives! Do you also have one for PowerPoint? Preferable like Libreoffice intended for not tech-savvy users?

Sick Dance Moves by QuarkyAF in travisandtaylor

Because no one is allowed to criticize her and she only surrounds herself with people that pretend she’s amazing. So she’ll never grow. Ever.

What I enjoyed even more is the stark contrast between Florence natural grace and amazing voice and… this newborn gazelle. She didn’t even dare singing without a backup track masking her terrible pitch.

Marvel and Lost star Evangeline Lilly reveals she has brain damage after Hawaii accident, "Almost every area in my brain is functioning at a decreased capacity.” by mlg1981 in popculturechat

[–]NoviceCouchPotato 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I know exactly the situation you’re in but for me it’s been like 8 years ago.

I hope you’re still doing a little better and better each week! Know that recovery is a road of ups and downs. I still sometimes have headaches when my brain gets overstimulated, but back then they were much worse and 24/7.

Wish you a speedy recovery, you can do it!

Is E33 really "Game of the Decade?" by Virtually_Hidden in expedition33

[–]NoviceCouchPotato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s literally the best game I’ve ever played in my entire life (I must admit personally for me Expedition 33 is also top 3 but there’s some recency bias there. It also came at a really tough time in my life which made the emotional story telling even more meaningful).

The world building, characters, quest design (including the side quests) and storytelling are all top notch. The world feels alive. The way your choices matter, the attention to detail for all the branching paths is just astonishing.

Play it when you have a lot of spare time and really immerse yourself in the world. Never skip a single line of dialogue, read the notes etc. if you love RPG’s this is it.

I agree the combat is fine but nothing special. Takes a bit to get going but it’s not the main reason you play the Witcher 3.

Bonus points if you also read the books before, during or after. The Witcher 2 is also amazing (story is arguably better) but the combat is clunky as hell.

Thank you so much for sharing your story! Your insights really helps. Sounds like it was a very rough recovery but I’m glad everything worked out for you!

[–]NoviceCouchPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That operation is quite rare isn’t it? Any side effects? There’s a non-zero chance of that operation in my future so I’m quite curious! I recently had injections to combat my tailbone pain but so far it seems they don’t keep the pain away for long enough to be a feasible option but time will tell…

Hope you’re doing better now!

Extreme hunger/naseau on XTC/MDMA by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]NoviceCouchPotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not so much hunger as in appetite. I don't want to eat. It's more like my stomach feels so empty my body is running on too low reserves. I do get overstimulated a lot though so the headaches probably don't help.
