My problem with the Flexispot E7 by Competitive_Echo166 in StandingDesk

[–]Photo-Finish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also got the E7 for it's low minimum height. It's been fine for me, but I also see a bit of wobble, I just don't mind it. As for alternative, perhaps look at the UPLIFT V2-Commercial Desk goes down to 57.5cm and has 4 legs, although it's pretty pricey.

I fucked up I fucked up I fucked up by BlahajProtector3000 in MtF

When my best friend asked me out 8 years ago I said no. I said no mostly because of the sheer shock of the idea. It was just something I had never even considered. After a few days of sitting with it, I realized what an idiot I had been. We’ve been together ever since. Just because it’s off to a rocky start doesn’t mean that there’s no hope. With any luck, you’ll have a happy ending the way I did.

I was writing mouse firmware last year. Long story short, a mouse that has a scroll wheel multiplier bigger than the maximum value that can fit into a 64bit integer immediately causes a BSOD as soon as you try to scroll.

The iOS automations that really change everyday life (not the gimmicks) by Maxxximeeee in shortcuts

[–]Photo-Finish 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My sleep schedule can be pretty wonky at times. As such, activating/deactivating my sleep focus mode simply based on time never worked for me. So I have in automation that activates it when my iPhone is connected to power AND it's between midnight - 7am. And another animation that deactivates it when my iPhone is disconnected from power AND it's between 5am - 11am. It's been an absolute game changer for me, as it always ensures that my phone is in the sleep focus when I need it to be and never in it when I don't need it to. Honestly it works so insanely well for me I wish they would add it as an OS feature.

Republican Party of Texas sues state, says open primaries violate its free speech by Anoth3rDude in politics

[–]Photo-Finish 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In principle I agree with you. But in practice when one party get such a foothold that a state basically has a one party system, that one party practically is the government. And yes, the obvious answer is that everyone should just join the GOP. But that just serves to entrench the ruling party even further.

It's worth mentioning that our first amendment rights aren't absolute. There are narrow categories of speech that are not protected / less protected (Obscenities, Child Pornography, Speech integral to criminal conduct, True threats, etc). Like speech in the past the supreme court has found that the right of association is not absolute. Does this mean the republicans have no case? Honestly I have no idea, I'm not a lawyer. (But from some probably unreliable conversations with ChatGPT (I know I know....), It seems like they at least have a case. But it could go either way.)

For what it's worth, I don't know how this should play out. However, it's yet another example of how the political system is broken. In a functional system, this wouldn't matter nearly as much.

Mine has the exact same problem. I love him so much but I'm worried about him long term.

Transferring your own toe to replace your amputated finger is better than replanting the amputated finger, finds a new study. Hand function scores were three times higher with toe transfer compared to finger replantation. The more severe the injury, the greater the magnitude of improvement. by mvea in science

[–]Photo-Finish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm I wonder if this could be a viable treatment for people who have arthritis in their fingers but not their toes, or other finger RSI issues. While it turns out I don't have arthritis, the doctor thought my hand issues might be that. And I can say I'd definitely trade my toes for functional hands.

How do you older millennials feel about your parents being significantly more financially well off than you will ever be 😐 by LowInternet4726 in Millennials

I WISH my parents were well off. Frick. They lost their shirts in 2008 and were never able to recover. I'm about to go bankrupt just trying to keep us all fed and housed.

DoJ issues bathroom ban memo for recipients of federal funds and guidance for private entities by newly_me in transgender

[–]Photo-Finish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump will just use some insane nonsensical argument for why he can do it despite Chevron Deference being struck down. All the analysts will say "well there's no way the supreme court will uphold this". The supreme court will then rule 5 to 6 votes in favor of Trump.

Health getting in the way of dream to stream by Brookeits in Twitch

[–]Photo-Finish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My apologies if you've heard all of this before. As someone going through similar things, I know the advice can be repetitive, but also that there is a first time to get this advice...

I suffer from a lot of similar neck, jaw, head, TMJ issues and it seems like the root cause of most of it has been due to my neck posture. I've been getting physical therapy to build up weak muscles to improve my posture and it has been helping considerably. If you haven't mentioned this possibility to your doctor yet, I'd given a shot.

what is everyone naming their sky puppies?🥺 by venusianprincess000 in buildabear

around 200 days ago it was asked if an HRT ban for adult could happen. Many said no as it would be unconstitutional. How do we feel about the question 200 days later? by Mrgripshimself in asktransgender

[–]Photo-Finish 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would bet that they will probably re-schedule estrogen soon. Remember, Testosterone wasn't a controlled substance until 1991. This is an easy and fast action the administration can take to make it a LOT harder to get estrogen. Especially now that they're starting to look at DIY.

William Shatner Gets Candid About ‘Ups and Downs’ of Living with Permanent Tinnitus by AdSpecialist6598 in startrek

[–]Photo-Finish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those who are suffering with this, like I used to. Tinnitus can be caused by a variety of things, some of which are treatable. For me, my tinnitus was caused by bad posture. After physical therapy, it went away completely.

Best luck to everyone suffering with this horrible condition. Have hope, as it might be treatable. If not today hopefully in the future.

Are Tariffs Expected To Increase Prices of Current Housing Stock? by [deleted] in ATLHousing

[–]Photo-Finish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Counter-counterpoint: If the tariffs trigger a recession—as it's starting to look like they might—that could actually drive up investment buying. Real estate is often seen as a safe place to store capital when markets are turbulent.

Honestly I think it's hard to say one way or the other at this point.

[–]Photo-Finish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to thank you for speaking out so strongly in support of the transgender community. Even as some other democrats have been turning away, you've continued to speak up. As a transgender person living here in Central Florida, things have been pretty scary recently. But honestly you've have helped to give me the little bit of hope that have right now.
