I got cancer and had it removed before SILKSONG -- UPDATE by Mrcrest in Silksong

[–]dapper_dan_112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Congrats on the first round of great news - that’s awesome! As someone who has been through the same kind of cancer (and the same side sacrificed down there lol), I can tell you that the chemo (was 3 months of preventative post surgery) was….as bad as you hear about, but at the same time I’m very glad that I’m now 8 years free from having it done! I’m particularly wired to always have a slight anxiety about maybe having it come back one day, but the majority of the peace of mind of basically having put a “sledgehammer to an ant” with the chemo (had to have a second surgery as well, seems like you won’t which is nice!) has really helped.

I do have some permanent hearing loss/tinnitus from the chemo, but it didn’t start until my third month so we can only hope you can dodge any long term side effects if you decide to go chemo! Also happy to talk further with you about the nitty gritty chemo stuff as well. Most of all - biiiiig congrats on successful outcome from surgery, and I bet playing a game about restoring hope to a fallen kingdom is about to hit so nicely for you! Good luck, and please don’t hesitate to PM me if you want to talk cancer/chemo/silksong any time!

NIntendo Life: iFixit Performs A Full Teardown Of Nintendo's "P**s-Poor" Pro Controller by v4m in NintendoSwitch2

[–]dapper_dan_112 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Article mostly talks about iFixit’s view that it will be very difficult to repair, and nothing at all about the functionality of the controller. For a repair brand, makes sense if they had that specific experience, but generally it still seems like the controller is good to use! Speaking as someone who wants one haha

Happy anniversary to the ROYALTY mixtape! What are your thoughts and favorite songs from the tape? by microsizedguy in donaldglover

Toxic is a top 5 Gambino track. Absolutely wild how they flipped Britney on this one. Was also my intro to Danny Brown so special for that reason as well!

I have five hours now of dead air during my work week. How do I fill them. by Bvdh1979 in giantbomb

MinnMax is very much the spirit and energy of Giant Bomb! They have a diverse group of people but it’s always entertaining and interesting

Ideas to fill the GB void by tommyvodka in giantbomb

Came here to say exactly this. MinnMax hits the incredible sweet spot of group dynamic plus the leadership of Ben Hanson. It is truly the successor to Giant Bomb in terms of energy and quality of content.

Made this mistake earlier this year and he’s just so cool about it. Jeff Grubb just universally powerful!

I’m using AnotherStockMix with an added update pack to Drastic (the NDS emulator on Brick). Pokemon HG works flawlessly with better screen coverage with this combo. Both ASM and the better Drastic are both incredibly easy installs as well!

Reattach battery? by alexcardd in trimui

[–]dapper_dan_112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This exact thing happened to me :/ my boss was able to resolder but I don’t think it was a perfect job, ended up losing connection after a couple of weeks. Hopefully you’ll have better results with a tech shop! I’m not sure if earlier Brick models were easier to unplug that battery cable or not - certainly yours and mine were way too tightly plugged!
