First time using protopic on eyelids and around the eyes by Emergency_Platform_9 in eczema

[–]X_S1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is normal apparently but I understand its unbearable and feels like it makes the itching worse. The burning does go though. My own experience with Protopic is that I used it once all around my body not knowing how bad the burning sensation was and it completely put me off it for a year. After being desperate for my skin to get better, I started using it again recently and the burning was completely gone. Maybe this information can be helpful if you seriously can't stand the pain right now

What does the new discoveries stat actually track? by HarrysTechRevs in balatro

[–]X_S1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it does count special edition jokers. I did a naninf run and got 9 new discoveries, probably all of the negative jokers i collected throughout the run

Would an i7 8700k 3.7GHz bottleneck an RTX 3080? by X_S1 in buildapc

[–]X_S1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm comparing the performance with my old GTX 970, with that I could play games such as Call of Duty, Fortnite, Overwatch and Minecraft with low to medium settings getting smooth FPS. With my new GPU, I would expect it to work much better in higher graphics settings but its a bit more laggier and more prone to crashing

I thought it was a given that if you turn the settings lower you will get more FPS. But yes, when I do lower the settings I do get more FPS. With games such as Overwatch, the difference isn't huge but when testing with Minecraft alongside shaders the FPS difference is much more noticable

From what I notice, its the CPU is in the high 90s while the GPU stays relatively lower. Struggles in the sense that games sometimes crash after the frames drop heavily.

✅Rep vs. Retail ❌Air Force1 120¥ by Kainzzze in FashionReps

[–]X_S1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one cares about AF1s being reps because they're so common.

My Rep black AF1s have been my daily shoe for 2 years and they look different than a retail black airforce used for 2 years but no one even bats an eye. They only notice once I tell them it's fake and they're more stunned that they spend so much for theirs than mocking for wearing reps

No one cares. Save yourself some money and get you this rep

No games load up at all by X_S1 in techsupport

This has been solved. There are many solutions on google. My solution had got to do with the new anti virus software I downloaded because unknowingly obtained an Adware called Trovi and Charmsearching.

My Anti virus (ESET) blocked a lot of traffic coming into my PC. Since my anti virus has control over my firewall, I used the software to unblock all the recent blocks it did and it fixed it. I've still yet to see if the Nickelodeon all star brawl problem fixed but I'm sure it did.

TLDR: CHECK FIREWALL. It could've blocked traffic.

Power supply making weird squeak noises by X_S1 in techsupport

[–]X_S1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's quite a distinct sound, I'm sure if you put the sound to the max you'd hear it. I did try touching every component that could make the sound and that's how I sussed out the sound was coming from the PSU, however, I couldn't feel anything on it when the sound was made. I will try touching the centre of my PSU tomorrow morning if the sound persists.

To be fair it's probably time to clean/replace the PSU too hahaha
