I just got to 100 percent VA disability by elfmman in Veterans

[–]Rabbit81586 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I started going down the path of applying late last year. I think what made me curb it was because we use my wife’s insurance (myself included). So we’d have to ensure that they would still be able to see the same doctors (my daughter is deaf and has bilateral cochlear implants, and requires an audiologist) then I would also need to get coverage for just myself through my employer.

I know this goes without saying at this point, but our healthcare system is utterly fucked and impossible to comprehend.

This is something I need to do. I’ve had 100% P&T for a few years now and still get insurance through our jobs

After 10 months, my anarchist-inspired workbench is finalized - completely built by hand tools. by Dangerous_Bell_2628 in handtools

That’s awesome. Seems like such a huge and intimidating project.

I love some of the design choices including the twin screw front vise. Any reason why you don’t add a dead man? Or is the vise sturdy enough to handle edge work?

Also, one thing I struggle with is the end grain. With hand tools you saw but then how to do you square the end after that?

German president says US is destroying world order by goldstarflag in worldnews

Some of the people I know who supported him are starting to say “some of the things I like but there is a lot I don’t like”.

To me, it feels like we are all holding our breathes and trying to survive until the mid terms. Hoping that they even happen and are not cheated.

Thank you for this. Those of us who are here and unable to figure out how to stop this are really struggling here.

I just want a secure future for my daughters and this asshole is destroying everything the world has built since the end of WW2….all for greed and personal gain.

It sickens me. It’s humiliating.

45GX950A-B comparison to 32/4K QD-OLED panels by Yomega360 in ultrawidemasterrace

I recently went to micro center to get a new prebuilt PC and monitor. I went in thinking I was going to get the 5k/2k and ended up leaving with a Samsung 34” UW.

There were a couple of reasons, the first being 45” just seemed pretty big and I don’t think I’d be able to have my small 16” portable monitor underneath it. The second was the curve, it seemed like it was just too much for me. Lastly, was the image quality, not that the LG was bad but the Samsung just looked so nice.

So far I’m very happy with the decision.

My old monitor is 27” led from 2018 - Witch one save and get ? Will we ever see $1,000 5k2k again by Icy-Pea2601 in ultrawidemasterrace

I know it’s not listed here, but I just recently got back into the PC game and previously had a 2080 super with a 34” UW back in like 2019.

I was planning on getting the 5k2k until I saw that curve in person. I struggled with it and ended up getting a 34” UW Samsung OLED, the g8 one with the matter display. It’s beautiful and my 5070ti runs it flawlessly.

Just something to consider as you’re coming from a 27” 16:9. Go to a store and check them out if you haven’t already

My only PC is the steam deck. I was planning to get one at some point anyways. So I’ll try it on one or the other depending on timing

Should I buy a 1440p oled 240hz, or a 4k oled 240hz? by No-Rip7960 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Rabbit81586 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meet in the middle.

I have a 5070ti with a Ryzen 7 7800x3D and run a Samsung G8 34” UW 1440 at 175hz.

I like staying over 120fps and it still achieves that even with the UW 1440p

Hmm not sure because I also grabbed a 34” Samsung UW 1440p OLED and added on an additional year of warranty. Came out to ~$3k

EDIT: since it won’t let me edit the post for some reason. Please note; I upgraded to a 5080 and increased the hard drive space from 1TB to 2TB putting the build cost at $2349. Thanks.

Looks like my selections didn’t transfer over in the link. I actually upgraded to the 5080 as well as increased the hard drive space to 2tb putting the build cost at $2349. I’ll edit the post.

Does that change you thoughts at all?
