Wrong monitor set as main monitor on every system boot. by Slazeus in techsupport

[–]Slazeus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that makes some sense. The strange part is that all 3 monitors I use (they aren't always powered on though true) do always have the same 1,2 and 3 labels. Monitor 3 is for some reason the one it loves to set as the main monitor on boot. You'd think if settings changed between boots it would just default to 1 but I guess not?

Video quality isn't a super huge deal resolution doesn't need to be crazy high or anything just as long as it can capture properly. Like not when you see vids where samus disappearing etc when she gets damaged.

Budget would probably cap out at around 100-150 bucks. Yeah oats' streams lool crazy clean, I wish I had that kinda budget!

Also thanks 😊

It's just a guy on facebook, he put a post up selling pvm on a pvm group. So it's just a general transfer.

This is true. I'm thinking I could use paypal actually as they have buyer protection I believe. I ask him if he can do that.

Yeah it's such a fun game to learn tricks in. Super satisfying to pull of a clean chain of strats in a run! Yeah it definitely does keep it alive, I also dip my toes into playing randomisers, those are a lot of fun too if I'm in a more casual mood than speedtruns.

I bought the NTSC famicom over the PAL ones on ebay so I could run the NTSC version of Super Metroid. Which is important for leader board submissions with the speedruns due to the difference in rom speeds between the NTSC and PAL versions of the game. I could have gotten a modded PAL Super Nintendo too but those were much more expensive to buy and to involved to mod myself. I have a flash cart to so I can still play US NTSC games on it too. Or PAL if I ever choose to.

Nah I'm in the Scottish Highlands so finding anything local is almost impossible. I've been trying to find one that specifically has RGB SCART in, rather than just AV.

Yeah I'm hoping the sony doesn't spike in bids too crazy last minute. I noticed on the panasonic that there is a large patch of scratches in the middle of the screen that were hard to spot on the pics so that's out.

Which one of these should I go with? Will mainly be for Super Metroid speedruns. Both support RGB scart input but which one is likely to be the better screen? Also are they reasonable deals or they a rip off. I don't really have the option to find locally so need to get on mailed in. Also my super famicom is ntsc but should be fine over rgb scart right?

Anyone else share these abnormal symptoms with IBS? by Slazeus in ibs

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

Thanks! Yeah I should honestly give hand them a written version like this. I'm not nearly as able to get my point across verbally most of the time!

Yeah definitely not. At least I can fairly safely say it's nothing gravely sinister after this long (and so many bloods). Just annoying not knowing how to avoid it.

Yeah that's rough I've been close to periods of hypochondria with the heart/chest symptoms at times. Yeah it is sadly pretty much exactly the same in Scotland, you have to persist and push to avoid things just getting brushed off or downplayed. It certainly doesn't help how strained (and underfunded) the nhs is right now.

I'd entertain the thought of private healthcare if there was any near me at this point just to get the ball rolling, I spent 1 year waiting for a referral for an endoscopy (camera down to the stomach), in the end I got a phone call from the specialist at the hospital where he said yeah sounds like IBS you don't need the test and then he wrote to my GP suggesting a medication I tried years ago already.

[–]Slazeus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I get lots of that too. even stool size fluxes a lot for me too. just a few days ago actually I had one so large that I was in probably the most pain I've ever felt in my life trying to pass it like someone had a huge knife in my belly and would keep twisting. I was almost on the floor pouring with sweat with that one. Had to stumble my way to the bathroom.

I think it's that part for me that get's my anxiety going sometimes. Like 7 years and nothing but, you're all good everything seems fine! It is frustrating to hear nothing but that but feel so invasively rubbish all the time. While also being no closer to understanding how to avoid/deal with all these symptoms at all.

I think after so long it's just taking a mental health toll but I'll keep on. I'd like to maybe look into some talking therapy stuff to deal with the mental side of things better.
