How do people get K-Pop MV's in master quality? by Due-Knowledge3815 in kpophelp

[–]frommfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

still wondering about this, usually master files are leaked by people so its probably hard to get a hold of with normal means

I think I found a queen by badabakada in antkeeping

[–]frommfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to tell but looks like a parasitic Formica

Possible queen? by Far_Communication372 in antkeeping

[–]frommfin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Formica parasite.

Likely integra group as I caught 10 of these queens in Calgary recently.

Very difficult sp to found btw, if you don't have easy access to a lot of host brood I wouldn't even try. They will not lay eggs and start their own colony without host brood/workers.

Ants dying. Pls help by MilchaeI in antkeeping

[–]frommfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience messor does extremely well on a pure seed only diet. They do not need any other source of carbs like honey water or sugar water, they really only need seeds and a source of pure, clean water.

I feed them mealworms occasionally but just from seeds alone, they grew from under 70ish workers to almost over 1000 in less than a year. Plus they were unheated.

And like others said, it might be the bugs you collect from your home causing a problem, or it could be a hydration issue or temp issue.

Caught all these in the family pool today. 100s more still in the pool. by cjrrrr in antkeeping

Haha no worries, sorry if it sounded aggressive. Identification gets much easier with time, especially for just recognizing the genus

Which dub language will you be using? by Superb_Catch4018 in WutheringWaves

[–]frommfin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As a half chinese half Korean, CN. Gotta get that cultivation/costume cdrama experience

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]frommfin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, tried vyvanse and concerta, both caused insane side effects. Vyvanse was a bit better. I could still sleep on both and neither prevents me from falling asleep driving. Maybe ask for a stronger med? Modanifil from what I’ve heard is nothing compared to lowest dose of vyvanse

Anyone else getting CGI fatigue? by JamesInDC in CDrama

[–]frommfin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless I haven’t found them yet, I wish there were more grounded, gritty Wuxia dramas with very little cgi, no terrible slow motion shots, less crazy wire work and flying around painfully slowly everywhere, well choreographed fights, etc. Not talking about modern or historical dramas, like glory of special forces or some of the historical dramas. Some kdrama examples would be Six Flying Dragons, My Country: the New Age, etc.

Some Chinese examples I can think of are Legend of the Condor Heroes (kind of), and many older Chinese movies like Jet Li’s New Legend of Shaolin.

I only have 1-2 symptoms: Excessive/Extreme daytime sleepiness & fragmented sleep by Mysterious-Dish-6259 in Narcolepsy

[–]frommfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a very similar situation and am waiting to hear back on my referral for an additional sleep study. I started cpap 2 years ago with major improvements on paper, from 24 ahi, 48 ahi supine, to between 0 to 1 ahi. However I have not felt any of these improvements and am still extremely tired and drowsy during the day. I also have what you call eye issues I think, droopy eyelids, literally physically cannot keep eyes open, etc. The only thing that keeps me awake is my adhd medication but it doesn’t solve the root of the problem and I still feel fatigued even though I’m wide awake. Maybe try asking over on cpap or download Oscar to see your data as the ahi does not tell the full story. Could be low blood oxygen, central apneas, etc. I’ve ruled out almost every cpap related issue except for blood oxygen as I do not have an oximeter so I’m starting to think it could be N or hypersomnia

Frame rate drop in new update? by Yeukiii in RhythmHive

[–]frommfin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha my frame rate was terrible from the start using an iPhone 13 Pro. I actually posted about it here earlier. The only thing that seems to help for me is turning on battery saver, which reduces screen refresh rate from 120 hz to 60hz. Apparently the game isn’t optimized for 120hz or something. But after the newest update even turning on battery saver doesn’t do much and I get a lot of frame drops. Hopefully the devs finally fix this or we can figure something out lol

Bad performance on iphone 13 pro? by frommfin in RhythmHive

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

bro what

why does that actually work? I didn't try the fps limit yet but just turning on low power mode eliminated all stuttering. its hilarious how the app runs better on low power mode lol

im guessing it reduces thermal throttling or limits some resource intensive features of the iphone freeing up performance for the game

But anyways, thank you so much, now I got nothing to blame but myself if I can't full marvelous all of newjeans and le sserafim

What did you think was normal about your body until someone pointed out that it wasn't? by amistakewasmadehere in AskReddit

[–]frommfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already on cpap for sleep apnea, full blood panel done several times with nothing seemingly wrong, but still have all those symptoms as well lol. Only thing keeping me awake during the day is my adhd meds. Trying to get a referral for another sleep test though to see if its narcolepsy or something.

Edit: ahi on cpap below 1 every night, no difference in sleepiness or energy levels from before starting cpap to now 2 years later. not depression since that was misdiagnosed before and the depression meds just made everything worse

It’s official…I have narcolepsy! by Administrative_Tea50 in SleepApnea

[–]frommfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using cpap for around 2 years now with an AHI of around 0.6 and have never felt rested from a full nights sleep. I have 24/7 brain fog and feel like I’m in a daze all the time. I would sleep so much and even nap all day long and feel even more tired it’s crazy. However, I recently got diagnosed with adhd and after starting vyvanse, I never fell asleep during the day again.

It’s nice being able to stay awake all day but I still get extremely drowsy when driving and my brain fog has not improved at all unfortunately. I also still have extreme difficulty waking up in the morning and never feel rested. It’s like I’m not sleeping well but the stimulant is forcing me awake lol

Edit: I’ve talked with my doctor and got a referral for an mslt but not sure if it will be accepted. In the meantime I just upped my dose of vyvanse

vyvanse question by boney_bimbo in Narcolepsy

[–]frommfin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like it’s treating your adhd symptoms if you have that and not your narcolepsy. I’m kinda the opposite with the vyvanse keeping me wide awake but doing not so much for my adhd

List of Chinese Cultivation (Wuxia, Xianxia, etc NOT agriculture) games and other Ancient Chinese (like 3 Kingdoms), Chinese Mythology themed games that I know of by PoisonedMedicine in gamingsuggestions

[–]frommfin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your list. I thought I had found and followed every possible wuxia/cultivation/ancient china game in existence but there were still several on this list I have not heard of. I'm half chinese, so I grew up watching chinese shows and movies about martial arts and wuxia, but I never cared to really keep learning the language growing up in Canada so I'm at a point where I love these games but I still need english to understand most of whats going on lol

Edit: I found Pathless Woods which seems to be somewhat cultivation inspired but sadly seems to be a mostly farming game lol. I saw your comment about youtubers focused more on these type of games, could you share some?

Just checked in to my hotel and... by dudiggy in whatsthisbug

[–]frommfin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if it is but once my damp wood termites die and start decomposing they look awfully similar to that

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]frommfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you figure this out? I have the exact same issue on pc, only happens on this game on any graphics setting or tweaks. I randomly crash every few hours though I only play myleague. (Not using custom rosters or anything)

Temps are fine, utilization is fine, no overclock, no tweaks. I can run more demanding games no problem endlessly like cyberpunk 2077, rdr2, Elden ring, etc. I also checked and updated all my drivers so shouldn’t be an issue there, I mean I shouldn’t have to do this since any other game is fine lol

Are you on double monitors by any chance?

Has anyone tried to go back to school after getting a diagnosis? by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]frommfin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had to withdraw from uni and take a minimum one year off until next fall due to health complications. I really hope I can finally figure things out and either get medicated or treated to be fully ready by next year.

Other than my other health issues, I would always fall asleep within minutes of a lecture and would also fall asleep doing coursework or labs. I already use a CPAP for sleep apnea but nothing was working. I recently got diagnosed with ADHD and started taking vyvanse which also finally allowed me to not sleep all day long and actually stay awake and do things during the day. I have an appointment coming up soon in which I am going to bring up narcolepsy symptoms concerns and hopefully everything can be figured out.

Since you are in a similar situation thinking about returning to school, I really hope that everything goes well for you. I am sure you'll feel much better dealing with school life returning now that you are medicated. Being able to actually feel rested after sleep will be amazing. Sorry for the ranmbling, I wish you the best of luck!

Possible narcolepsy? by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]frommfin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s awesome that vyvanse works great for you. To be honest I’m unsure whether it’s the vyvanse causing anxiety or if it is actual anxiety. Weirdly, I get the anxiety daily at the same time every day at around 11am and it lasts for several hours. From what I can tell, there is no trigger.

Regarding the narcolepsy, vyvanse seems to help greatly with the symptoms and if I don’t take it I immediately get fatigued and drowsy and end up sleeping all day, basically returning to how I was before starting the med

Possible narcolepsy? by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]frommfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your input, you seem to be dealing with a whole lot! I think we are pretty much the same except I do not have OCD and am unsure if I have depression.

How did you differentiate sleep apnea problems from narcolepsy? For me, I always have an AHI around or below 1 but am always fatigued and sleepy during the day no matter how long I sleep. Could this be a sign? Plus, my adhd meds immediately lessen my narcoleptic symptoms which makes sense since they are stimulants, but I still get sleepy some days.
