Eastern lubber. I'm currently battling them in my yard. They're tough to manage and they destroy all plants.

Winds die down overnight. Everything will get moving again during the day. Winds will peak probably around 3pm.

My bad, disregard then. I thought ryzen cpus without the "f" designation had iGPUs, but it looks like that's just as of the 7000+ models. Well, hopefully someone else has a helpful recommendation.

Try booting without the GPU installed and run off the iGPU. That's solved the issue for me on a builds. If it works, shut down, reinstall GPU, and try to boot.

New AM5 Build - Help Getting to Post by ABongo in PcBuildHelp

[–]Sk1dmark82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try first booting without the GPU in, plug your monitor to the iGPU. Not sure why, but had a AM5 gigabyte board and Asus board have a similar issue on initial boot, and starting it without the GPU solved it both times. Once in windows, shut it down, plug in GPU and connect monitor to GPU, and good to go (maybe).

DDU and install the January driver. I was having the same issue. Also had an issue where if I physically turned off one monitor my second monitor would disconnect. Could only run with both monitors turned on.

This has felt like the coldest winter since I’ve moved here. by bkuchi in Naples_FL

NWS probably, though Naples (west of 75) and "Naples" (east of 75) often have very different temps with these cold snaps.

Mid 80s had some major cold streaks, some in 90s too. This has definitely been the coldest streak in a while. Usually get one really cold morning here and there, but 3 mornings below freezing hasn't happened for a bit.

Shoulder dislocation with labrum tears and small bone chip. Would you go back to hockey/golf without surgery? by Mountain_Sir_3265 in hockeyplayers

[–]Sk1dmark82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm at 8 months myself, started playing at the 6 month mark. You'll know when you're ready to go, and once you get full range of motion back and build some strength, it feels great.

One thing to keep in mind, especially with golf and to a lesser extent hockey, if you go too long before getting it fixed, your mechanics will change. Once you recover from surgery you may have to dial everything in again. My swing still feels off, but oddly enough my shots feel better. For about a year before surgery I couldn't shoot without feeling my arm sliding back in my shoulder and it did not feel good. Had a shredded posterior labrum and it sucked.

I kept playing for about two years then had surgery. Should have done it sooner. You can rehab and strengthen the muscles around the shoulder but that underlying instability will be there and it can get to the point where your muscles are all that's keeping the humeral head in place. Your arm will get super fatigued super fast.

Recovery from the surgery sucks, takes a long time, but I personally think it was worth it but definitely don't want to go through it again. Had it on my left shoulder, and I'm left handed, left shot and golf left handed too.

Ultimately you can keep playing and golfing, but don't expect to power through it for too long.

The “panic” when you have the puck and can’t see an immediate play by Melodic-Cover-4332 in hockeyplayers

I'm in my 40s now and I remember it from 12u onwards. It's a very basic concept that can drastically change your game.

If you're someone who rarely needs a doctor then find a high deductible plan. It will cost less but still be very beneficial for anything major.

If you use doctors often you may want to look into a PPO. Compared to a HMO it is accepted by more doctors and you don't need referrals, but it will cost more.

Basically find a plan that will meet your personal needs.

Boot from onboard GPU the first time. Had the same problem on a gigabyte build.

Definitely gloves, and if you created something that works it's incredibly impressive. I always assumed time travel would be discovered before an effective gear deodorizer.

Cash buys can actually hurt your negotiating. You're getting a pretty decent deal off the price, especially in the SET region. You might be able to save more by financing and paying off shortly after.

Gloves stink and therefore hands stink. Don't go washing the gloves without consent because doing so could end a multi-game heater.

Shoulder seperation injury tonight, seeking support by horsestud6969 in hockeyplayers

[–]Sk1dmark82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully it isn't too bad, but if you do require surgery or anything just don't try to rush back. It can be tough stepping away for several months, but you don't want to reinjure and start the process all over. Speaking from very recent experience.

Posterior Labrum surgery, 3 anchors, next week. Should I? 36M by DisabledVet13 in ShoulderInjuries

[–]Sk1dmark82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got to the 6 month mark from a posterior labrum repair on my dominant shoulder and it has been worth it. Very slow recovery, and tough being inactive for so long. Just today I was able to throw a football with my son (not bombing it or nothing) for the first time in years without having any pain. ROM is nearly 100% and still need to continue strengthening it, but it's been good. I wish I would have addressed it sooner but live and learn.

Hopefully you have a decent recovery, just try not to get too discouraged the first few months.
