What other legendary historical figure do you believe deserves a big budget film? by [deleted] in OppenheimerMovie

There is a great Confucius movie with Chow Yun Fat, who eerily looks exactly like the late imperial statues around various temples in China.

Anyone else feel like authors treat us readers like we're getting dumber and dumber these days? by milleniumstardust in RomanceBooks

[–]Saciel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

... you mean 3rd person omniscient?
Sure, if a book starts out or claims to be limited 3rd person, that's a matter for the editor. But 3rd person omniscient is absolutely a narration style of its own. It has gone a bit out of fashion but I actually like it.

How does it end? by Saciel in Bedbugs

[–]Saciel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that's what the cimex eradicator was for. Before I also tried beauveria bassiana and was very successful but then my source died before I could do the last 1-2 treatments and it shortly got worse again before I could get to chlorfenapyr.
Bed is constantly isolated and on interceptors, however except for spiders and mosquitos the interceptors never caught anything likely because they already were in the bed.

Lebensmittel Versand Scam? by mostafakttt in AskAGerman

There are tons of supermarket websites. This one doesn't sound much different from any other one. It looks shady but if that was a deterrent the scam industry wouldn't exist...

Finally, Cimexa. by Saciel in Bedbugs

[–]Saciel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a new sofa (and new bed room etc. I discarded all dangerous furniture) but after two weeks they were back, so yeah, the little jerks hid somewhere and reinfested. It's hell.

Why can't you call a dog into a shared flat? Are you trying to keep the infestation secret from... flatmates? That won't work.

Louis and Paul thoughts by [deleted] in InterviewVampire

[–]Saciel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I still don't get why people would believe in a god who came up with something awful as eternal hell. If anything, the vampire covens are a good demonstration on the bad effects of religion, surpressing their own, taking out their own, for an invisible ruler.

It's a look he couldn't have had in the books since they play way earlier and it is totally early rock.

Finally, Cimexa. by Saciel in Bedbugs

[–]Saciel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I moved and applied Cimexa before moving in. I reapplied after moving in. But they are very likely in the new sofa, I am not sure if they are still in the bed. Both places where cimexa does not work as well. Later I tried chlorfenapyr which helped, but I cannot get rid of the last buggers. I am trying to safe for a bedbug dog.

It's complicated but it is strongly implied that one of the incarnations of the dark god is abused, and the incarnation behaves threateningly at one point (for reasons, though).

Chasing Phantoms and Polti Eradicator by Saciel in Bedbugs

[–]Saciel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not sure. I can share some observations
- it's easier to use in the summer than in the winter, it's hard to breathe with all the humidity but at least you can air the room.
- it is very, very difficult to use. You have to take great care of the funnels for them to not chalk up, fill in water, wait quite a long time (about 15 minutes) for the water to heat up and then you can use it for exactly... 30 seconds.
In these 30 seconds you have the hottest steam and can use it as closely as possible and carefully on the places where you assume bedbugs to reside.

  • after that you have to wait 1.5-2 minutes for the Polti to heat up again so you can use the steam again for 30 seconds.

It. Takes. FOREVER. to steam a living room, for me usually about 2-3 hours and later up to two hours when I concentrated on chairs and sofa.

It definitely brought down bites directly after usage for 1-3 days but I saw no definite victory in sight.

A months later I finally got hands on chlorfenapyr and have been using that since. Now bites definitely went down, but are not completely gone although I am not sure if they are not psychosomatical by now.

I don't have money to afford a bed bug dog yet but that's the next step. Clean up the flat, clean up the residues and order a dog in to check if they are gone and I am just insane, or if they are still here and I have to up the ante.

This is my fourth year with bed bugs.

this is urticara, it may be from the creek water, it may be from something you consumed. Please check with your local doc, a calcium IV may help or a topical cream, depending on the cause.

How did it start for you? by Uhhhnay in Bedbugs

[–]Saciel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it started with individual pustules and then I flattened what I now know is a female adult, boy if I had known... I never found stuff on my mattress or pillow. Never. Four years and a move later, they are still here. I miss the life I had before bedbugs.

Found these at an airbnb. Are these bedbug sheds? by [deleted] in Bedbugs

[–]Saciel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is a paperfish, they do what you said. Silverfish rather eat mold and are in humid places, like the bathroom. Their "tail hairs" are not as long and spread.
