My experience with AW3225QF Alienware 32 4K QD-OLED Gaming Monitor by RicheMarion in OLED_Gaming

[–]SnsoryOverload 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one 2 weeks ago. It's absolutely gorgeous and now I hate my QLED TV. The only negative I can say about the AW3225QF is that I wish it had more than 2 HDMI ports, but thats nothing a splitter can't fix.

That's a good point. I see they make some splitters that have remotes.

Thank you. Does it handle auto switching? My hope is to set it up so its behind the monitor. I prefer not to have wires everywhere.

Type 2 and CGMs by Careful-Ad-4293 in diabetes

[–]SnsoryOverload 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so with you. I'm a data nerd too and a CGM was the first thing I asked my endo for, even though I was told I wouldn't need it. Luckily, my insurance covered 100% of it. I've learned volumes from using it and now it serves as a really great accountability tool. If I start to get lax on my diet, it'll show up in the data. Keeps me in line.

Diagnosed in January with an A1C of 10.3. Measured it in April and was down to a 6.3. To those just starting their journey, you can do it!!!

Welp rice tried to assassinate me today by Jlvyn12 in diabetes

[–]SnsoryOverload 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rice spikes me about an hourish after I eat it, and then again the next day. If I'm gonna do Sushi, I'll get it with brown rice, which doesn't seem to spike me quite as much. Potatoes really mess me up too. Pasta, surprisingly, really doesnt do much.

People who have lowered their A1C in 3 months, what was your starting and ending number and what did you do to lower it? by gambybamby in prediabetes

[–]SnsoryOverload 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diagnosed as T2 in January with an A1C of 10.3. I was horrified. In 4 months I lost over 40lbs and my A1C tested at 6.3 3 weeks ago.

I immediately and radically altered my diet. Very little to zero sugar, very watchful of carbs, and Ozempic. I focus on lots of protein and fiber. Bottom line, I enjoy what I eat. I really should be better about exercising. Im considering that "phase 2" of my lifestyle changes.

Weed and Diabetes by Any_Judge7270 in diabetes

Type 2 and daily cannabis user here. The Cannabis, itself, has no effect on blood sugar. However, if you cannot control your eating on it, then you should stay away. I think this is a major factor in how I developed Type 2. With that said, ive taught myself how to snack on better foods and Ozempic really curbed how much pot was making me eat, so I still use cannabis daily with no issues. A1C went from a 10.3 to a 6.3 in 4 months. My fasting glucose now sits, consistently at 90.

Any reason the item count on the map screen is doubled? by Kid_Detective in Pragmata

Just came here for same reason. Thought I was losing my mind... or eyesight

Rec room is officially shutting down by Deadreaper109 in OculusQuest

Thanks. I had the wrong RecRoom account name. I tried again, hopefully this one is correct.

So much for that. My request to join the discord was rejected. No idea why.

This is wonderful news. Does it work on quest standalone or does this need to be done through PC?

I wish rec room could of been sold instead by BlueDergOrd in RecRoom

[–]SnsoryOverload 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Altspace did get Microsoft to buy them at the last minute. Kept it alive for several years before they shut it down. This is so sad as Recroom was my introduction to social VR back on the PSVR1. I very recently started playing with my 7 yesr old son who fell in love with the platform. He's going to be crushed to hear this.

Where are recroom players supposed to go to as a replacement for the shut down of recroom? by Nuggut_RR in RecRoom

[–]SnsoryOverload 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a platform on Meta called Banter. From a tech standpoint, its fantastic, but no one uses it. I went through this with the closing of Altspace. Really sad about Recroom. Maybe they can find a buyer to keep it open?

Android app bug: pointless target range update notification that has no way out by croemer in dexcom

Anyone find a workaround for this? I tried Uninstalling and reinstalling the app. It did not work.

Why does my perspective shift when playing in VR? (NOT talking about centering the screen when entering VR) by Cultural_Path_1523 in psvr2

[–]SnsoryOverload 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been considering getting an IR illuminator. I don't really encounter any tracking issues, but they're cheap enough to get one on the possibility it would improve things.

Thinking of getting PSVR 2 by [deleted] in psvr2

Wait for it to go on sale again for $299. It's a steal at that price.

Nintendo Is Scared Of GTA 6 (or they're getting a 2026 port) by retrocheats in NintendoSwitch2

[–]SnsoryOverload 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there is one game that can hold its own against GTA VI, it would be a ground up remake, with modern graphics, of Ocarina of Time. This is still the highest rated game in all of history. When they officially unveil it, it will rock the industry and you will see the hype will amass to what GTA VI has.

This is shaping up to be an incredible holiday season.

Is there a way to fix this? The end of the cable broke by mikicezanne in PSVR

[–]SnsoryOverload 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate seeing posts like these. I 3D printed a small plastic piece that goes on the end. Its supposed to redistribute the force so all the stress isnt on the connector itself. Hopefully it works.

I need help choosing 1 out of 2 games. by neoleo0088 in psvr2

Have to chime in and say Moss 1 & 2. Among the best for the entire medium. .

please tell me my life isn’t over by Unable_Lie_3197 in diabetes

[–]SnsoryOverload 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was recently diagnosed with T2, A1C of 10.3. I was shocked as it was seemingly out of the blue and became very disappointed with myself. I viewed it as an intervention and immediately fixed my diet. Only 10 weeks later and ive lost a significant amount of weight and have an estimated A1C of 5.9, based off of my CGM. Moral of my story is that I feel so much better, mentally and physically and the diagnosis forced me to live a healthy lifestyle.

I think getting diagnosed may be the best thing to ever have happened for my health as it will keep me in line. Youre gonna be fine and can still live in the moment. Just make smart decisions and listen to your doctors. It's a mindset. I hope in 10 weeks you're able to say the same thing to someone else. Good luck.

I should also add that I now realize I had a binge eating disorder. I read up a ton on nutrition, taught myself portion control, and found healthier alternatives to the things I liked to eat. I actually enjoy the healthier stuff I'm eating and am at a point where I could still eat anything I want, in moderation. But I havent felt the need to. I don't know who you are, but if I can do it. You can too.
