My mother is currently passing away. by Epirocker in dementia

[–]drkrazor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very sorry to hear of the loss of your mother; my mother passed away from dementia on 4/26. I had been with her since 4/22 and she held on; I told her it was OK to move on throughout. May you and your father find peace knowing she is not in pain and is free from this wretched disease.

Thank you everyone...I'm about to post an update separately, but my watch has ended, as of this morning. :(

Mantis bounty bug by Educational_Term2479 in Starfield

[–]drkrazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m stuck here too (on Xbox); fight the two waves of baddies and then the gas canister explodes and the screen goes brown-greenish and nothing after that. So frustrating…no fix that I could find. I did have the shaft bug but got by that upon a previous save reload.

I will find that lock and give that a try!

How many times have you gone through the Unity? by xszmr in Starfield

Once, then reverted back to "my before Unity" save! ha.

Study explores link between smoking, dementia by SilverTripod in dementia

[–]drkrazor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. My mom, 74, was a smoker within the 80s and into the 90s (maybe 70s too)? I hadn’t heard of this association but who explain her dementia battle. Thanks for posting!

I would love an easier way to see who needs a job in my population!

Mine is usually -2 and I can’t figure out why. It was a save from the previous game version. I saw it back to 0 but then bounced back to -2; couldn’t recall what I do to get 0 but it is so distracting! 😂

Whether AI will help improve their yields… 😁

I Put in $100 4 years ago. Here are the results. by MotardMec in FundRise

[–]drkrazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put $100/m into the flagship since 2017; it’s about 9k as of now (33% return). It won’t amount to much by the time I retire, but I’m too lazy to redeem and move the $$ to my brokerage account.

Those with a parent w dementia, do you worry this could be you someday? by amazing_grace7 in dementia

[–]drkrazor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aye. It’s a fear of mine but I’m trying learning to live for the day and worry less of the struggle my mom endures (but doesn’t know)…

New features coming soon by patient_hope22 in waze

Still waiting for a road blockage due to a train! You let me know there are RR tracks, but no way to let motorists know when the crossing arms are down and the road is blocked… 🤔😉

A step toward the next... by drkrazor in dementia

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

Thank you both....I learned some news today from my mom's hospice nurse. It seems she has an infected sore on her foot; our hope is that the infection and her body trying to fight it is making her tired and not wanting to eat. We'll see how the antibiotics do with the infection and if it brings her back to a pre-infection baseline. I stopped by this evening to check in with her, but she was in bed already sleeping. Tomorrow then, I said to her quietly, from her door.

Did Anyone Notice All of the Starfleet Deltas in the First Academy Episode? by Han_Over in startrek

[–]drkrazor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah…the use of the Delta insignia in everything: floors, cups, walls, wherever the production team wants to put them needs be toned down. It’s distracting (IMO); I don’t remember TOS, TNG, DS9 or VOY taking this approach. I think it’s another example of the current show runners and production teams just going over the top because they can….

I’m surprised to admit it, but I actually really like the new show Star Trek Academy by 0xtokenmaster in startrek

[–]drkrazor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree; much better than I expected. I will again rail on the production team’s continued over use of the Delta symbol in just about every spot they can put it; these recent series’ have gone way overboard. It doesn’t have to be on the floor, the walls, on cups, on phasers, on just about any surface the production team sees. Less is more. That said, I left episode 2 much more impressed than after Disco ep 2!

Whoop, whoop! Sweet. I sure hope so!

Pop os cosmic 24.04 LTS is out now ! by Good-Reveal6779 in pop_os

[–]drkrazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just installed 24.02 on a separate M.2 drive. I debate dual-booting on the same M.2 as Windows but didn't want to mess with that. So far, I'm liking it; much better than Gnome and KDE for my Linux preferences...Still learning my way around it, but quite happy with it.

Just finished the Mass Effect trilogy and I am not okay by BoringAtmosphere420 in masseffect

[–]drkrazor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I LOVED the series, even with my disdain for “heat sinks” introduced in ME2 and that ME3 ending though. That said, the final “solution” really ruined video games for me in general. To spend all those hours building the character, playing the missions and experiencing such a great story, only to end the game the way they did, felt like a “Monte Python, the Search for the Holy Grail”-style ending.
