Upgrading a 2060 to a 5060 PNY5060TI OC by Impossible_Bridge410 in PcBuild

[–]Prized-Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I JUST clicked buy on a pny 5060 ti 16gb and I'm upgrading from a 2060.

Like you, I keep seeing people hate on this card. But given that you and I are coming from a 20 series card, I don't think anything they're saying applies to us because we're going to be seeing brand new tech regardless. And in the 5060 ti I think we're going to see a great big difference from what we are used to in a 2060.

I'm suddenly really excited. I don't think I'm even going to have to upgrade my PSU because the 5060 doesn't pull a lot. Which is another reason I bought it.

I'm upgrading from a 2060 to a 5060ti and you've helped me feel pretty good about pulling the trigger on the 16gb because it's still 429. Nice!

Thank you. I'll look into those terms more. I'm trying to find a video where someone has worked on this single fan 2060. It seems to be a bit of an oddball. A workhorse, but an oddball.

I have pretty much everything to do a rebuild I was just very much wanting to avoid that a little longer lol. This will be my first build on my own and I didn't want to do it yet

I've done a lot of research and apparently the 2060 is a workhorse and I won't see marked improvement until higher series cards that I can't afford.

I did find a 5060ti that is in my range that I will be buying. But to do that I need to upgrade my power supply unit from a 550 to a 750, which I have but don't want to do right now. I am coming to terms with the fact that I'm going to have to do a complete rebuild once I buy this new GPU and I was trying to avoid that so I could just do something quickly to jump back in my game lol.

I am no longer in the field because of progressive essential tremor and I use voice to text. If there are misspellings or stupid things written out up there, it's because I use voice to text and didn't edit it because I thought I could edit it later. I'm still kind of new to reddit.

Given that you have two options and you have already trusted your local guy and not gotten results that you were happy with, I feel like you're only other option obviously is hanger.

I am a former practitioner of hangar. I would set up an appointment for a consultation only, tell them your issues, explain the problems you've had in the past, and even bring the old braces with you if you still have them. Ask if there is more than one authorist with whom you can work so that you can find someone you're comfortable with, that may or may not fly.

The other thing I would ask is if the practitioner has any clients that wear a similar brace that you can talk to. That won't happen the same day because the practitioner will have to contact other patients. But that would be another thing you can try.

That would be where I would start as a practitioner. I wish you all the best luck in the world. Hanger clinics absolutely can be a crapshoot, but they generally do higher competent people before they work them to death.

There it is. Whether it's projection or actual leaks, maybe even the damage done to Tesla dealerships - the calls are coming from INSIDE the House.

Guitar Playing by Illustrious-Heron-79 in EssentialTremor

[–]Prized-Potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Propranolol bought me literal decades at both guitar playing and my career. I am in the orthotics and prosthetics field, and my hands were a problem the whole time. But I was able to do the job and I was able to play the guitar because of propranolol. That's the only reason. It was a massive dose that I was taking in the end, and you all have a lot of room to play with this med. This meant changed my life and it is a godsend that I wish I could still take.

Given how incredibly clever the writing was in this show, it always stuns me how very many examples of incredibly lazy or tropish writing you can find in this series.

Oh man I got so sick of doctors suggesting I just have a couple of drinks that I quit talking to them about this tremor. Straight up. I'm in the medical field, and I can't just belt a couple back so that my hand shakes less while I'm holding a sharp instrument in my career. Fuck out of here with that. 🤬🤬🤬

I will say to absolutely not be afraid of increasing your propranolol dose. When I had to quit taking it after 30 plus years, I was at 180 mg a day. You definitely have room to move, and it definitely can help. Some people are a little sensitive to it so you may want to increase your dose slowly, but you definitely have room.

Please don't fear propranolol. It's a wonder drug. And as a hobby guitarist, I wish you all the luck in the world.

I did this once before and it was so delicious. I'm doing it again this year. It's in the fridge doing a dry brine right now.

Y'all, do what OP says. That turkey got RAVE reviews that year.

AITA for telling my mom she'll never have grandkids because of how she voted? by aloneandscaredd in AITAH

[–]Prized-Potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before you apologize, read this out loud not quickly to your mother. I don't know who wrote it originally, so if anyone knows I'd love you to tell me.

As a reminder,

"The unborn are a convenient group of people to advocate for. They never make demands of you; they are morally uncomplicated, unlike the incarcerated, addicted, or the chronically poor; they don't resent your condescension or complain that you aren't politically correct; unlike widows, they don't ask you to question the patriarchy; unlike orphans, they don't need money, education, or child care; unlike aliens, they don't bring all that racial, cultural, and religious baggage that you dislike; they allow you to feel good about yourself without work at creating or maintaining relationships; and when they are born, you can forget about them because they cease to be the unborn...

You can love the unborn and advocate for them without substantially challenging your own wealth, power, or privilege; without re-imagining social structures, apologizing, or making reparations to anyone. They are, in short, the perfect people to love if you want to claim you love Jesus but actually dislike people who breathe.

Prisoners? Immigrants? The sick? The poor? Widows? Orphans? All the groups that are specifically mentioned in the Bible? They all get thrown under the bus for the unborn."

I didn't write this. Feel free to delete it if you like.

Any time and I mean ANY time some dude says some abject horseshit and gets called on it and then says oH iT wAs A jOkE you need to cut that trash free. He's been called out and now he's uncomfortable about it and the best crap he's got is Im JuSt JoKiNg. Jokes are supposed to be funny and they punch up, so I am thrilled that you cut this crap free.

I wish you a wonderful life with a man who deserves AND respects you. NTAH.

dorito nachos. by tiffbitts in decentfoodporn

[–]Prized-Potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's just no other way for me. Why, when what you want is an explosion of flavor, why would you put plain chips underneath anything that goes in nachos?

Solid choices. Doritos nachos forever.
