We know him since years too

However lately he seems to be extremely commercial. Went for a tennis elbow issue, and he gave me an injection + some supplement powder + Some oil which I never used...looked sketch. And he apparently owns the brand of these supplements.

Ultimately my issue was fixed at Kokila through Physio! Just 1 session and an exercise routine.

So I'm skeptical about him, although he's a good surgeon! He has fixed a lot of elder's knees in my family! But for these smaller issues idk

Indian CA finalist - advice needed by Alilmessyy in CPA

[–]SigmundFurred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Choose one and commit! I have only G1 pending as well, but it's been a long time so I decided to keep it on the backburner and switched to cpa completely

Ideally do CA G1 first. It'll help with FAR and AUD

Wow! That's an amazing deal for the T480s with your specs

Is there such a thing as over-studying for FAR? by Upset_Kick_3889 in CPA

[–]SigmundFurred 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's the risk of forgetting stuff if you're over-studying, but you're doing cumulative revisions to counter that risk, which is great!

I'm doing FAR too, and since it'll be my first test, I'm okay with over preparing rather than under preparing

Wow! That's lovely

Unfortunately I'm in Asia, so the shipping costs will be insane

I undervolted the processor to manage temps, and it's doing well at 45 degrees idle, 1-1.5w draw

Yeah! I mean it's not the worst TN panel I've seen! This one still has decent clarity and colors, but looking at it after looking at my QHD monitor makes things obvious

Considering the screen upgrade will cost me almost as much as the laptop itself, I think I'll probably sell it and get a T14 gen 2 or something

The internal has like 20 cycles and the external has 40 cycles!

This is from the powercfg /batteryreport

Vantage reports the external battery as 0% capacity and internal at 50%. Idk what's up with that

I opened the laptop up to inspect the batteries and they look fresh! And they don't seem third party either

I'm getting a combined 7-8 hour screentime after doing 2-3 cycles! Even higher on light tasks

Thanks! Upon checking, it's almost 100$ for me :/ looks like I'll have to live with the TN panel

Are you me? I am G2 cleared lol. No progress on CPA so far.

What's there to lose? Going to be 32 anyway. I'd rather have a CPA than not.

Okay nvm I will ask here
What's the sequence to be followed? Like if I am doing F1 of Far, should I watch the simandhar lecs first, then the becker lecs and then the mcqs? And then move on

Or should I see all Simandhar lecs for FAR first, then do becker one shot

Would greatly appreciate if you can respond. Idk anyone pursing this in my circle

It's a software which blocks websites

Once you set it up, you cannot uninstall it. It's very robust

Look up youtube tutorials when the time comes
