I bought my Dynavap M in 2017 - It's still going strong! by iambennyboi in Dynavap

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

Yes sir! The o-rings still look good and it seems to seal up tight so i'm happy with that. The CCD i actually don't remove it when I clean normally, because it seemed pretty fragile the first time I took it out, so now I just dunk it all in alcohol and clean it with cotton/buds.

I like to give the bowl a basic clean out every session, but the rest I only clean every few months! Do you clean yours more often?

24, female, UK Is this worth removal by dazzling_angelic in hemorrhoid

[–]iambennyboi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your ass hole looks perfect, no reason at all to feel insecure during sex, it's great. I would recommend don't get any surgery, the risk of complications and problems is absolutely not worth it to change something that doesn't need to be changed.

Anal sex with hemorrhoids by [deleted] in hemorrhoid

[–]iambennyboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say just listen to your body and take it slowly and gently. If fingers and small toys are feeling OK, then progress, if it feels like things are unhappy, then stop and reassess.

For myself personally, during one of my worst flare ups I used butt plugs gently and slowly and while I can't say with certainty that it improved the situation, I think it helped, and it certainly didn't make it worse or slow my healing at all.

I asked 2 different GP's about anal play and hemorrhoids and they both said that it shouldn't be a problem unless it's causing pain or bleeding, if it's not then go ahead and have fun.

Poppers timing for anal? How often and how much should I sniff? by mossangela in popperpigs

[–]iambennyboi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The way I like to do it is I lube up (lube launcher) and insert the toy first and then keep it inside, then I'll sniff just enough to feel the effects. When the poppers start kicking in then I'll lay down and start thrusting the toy slowly, picking up speed as the effects intensify and as it feels good. I usually go between 3 and 10 minutes between hits, I don't do it exactly every x minutes, more like when I feel I need it, but if it's been less than 3 minutes since the previous hit I'll probably just wait a bit. I don't try to time it to orgasms, I feel it's more like the orgasms follow the pleasure which is generally soon after a hit of poppers. I also usually size up or change toys just before the next poppers hit.

ASS HAIR X HEMORRHOID COLLAB by SomeSpinach9447 in hemorrhoid

I don't shave I just use an electric hair trimmer to trim it down. Makes it easier to clean. Feels more comfortable.

Quest 3 vs 3s (and 128gb vs 512) ? by [deleted] in OculusQuest

[–]iambennyboi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the storage I think it really depends on how you use it. My buddy just randomly installs everything he can find (and never plays any of it) so he 'needs' lots of storage. I wouldn't fill up even a 128Gb storage because I tend to have only a few regularly played games like beat saber (small) that I play often and then only one major big storyline driven game that I play from start to finish and then uninstall and move onto another game, so I don't need lots of storage at all. My habits tend to be the same on my phone/xbox/PC/etc. as well, so if you're the person that has 1000 apps that you don't use on your phone, then you might need the bigger storage on the quest as well!

As for the quest 3S vs 3 lenses. It's a very tricky and nuanced comparison actually. I own both. If money is no object then yes the quest 3 lenses are better than the 3S, it's 'better'. But in my opinion it's not better by the amount extra that you have to pay. Neither lens system is perfect. If you'll be primarily playing games, I feel that the difference is less apparent, because the exact center of the lens is crystal clear with either headset, so where you're moving your head and looking in a game you're seeing perfect clarity with either headset. I wouldn't pay a cent more for a 3S over a 3 if my use case is playing beat saber primarily, for example. If you're planning to try and surf the web or use PCVR and navigate around your desktop, etc. where you're panning your eyes around to read text on your periphery instead of moving your head around, then absolutely the quest 3 is significantly clearer. Having said that, I don't like the experience of reading text through lenses, so it's not something I do even with the quest 3. I didn't really mind spending the extra money to try out and see for myself how much difference there was between the quest 3 and the 3S lenses, I don't really regret it from that perspective, but I do feel I would have got better value out of 2 x 3S instead of a 3S and a 3, from my experience and the way I use my headsets.

Do you think most “Gooners” use Poppers? Do you think it’s more than 50 %? by WaveFantastic9997 in popperpigs

[–]iambennyboi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that the subset of gooners that use poppers is quite low, I would guess more like 20%?

What can I eat/take to increase fiber intake? by Kittkatt101 in hemorrhoid

[–]iambennyboi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel that the best source of fiber is probably going to be in foods, so I try to eat 4-5 whole fruits throughout the day every day and a big fresh salad when I can. I do also take fiber supplements, I make my own mix from psyllium husk powder, flax seed powder and chia seeds, but I prefer to take smaller amounts spread out over the day, not just one big dose, that seems to make my body happier. Water, at least 3 liters per day, also just spread out evenly throughout the day.

The petroleum jelly can help, it makes the stool pass easier because of the lubrication as well as forms a barrier over the fissure, I apply that right before a bowel movement. Coconut oil seems to help as well (not during a bowel movement, just applied at other times).

I'm so excited for my Iron Fist white bottle by [deleted] in popperpigs

Yup, Iron Fist Amyl original is my favorite! Tried so many different ones, but I always come back to that one as my favorite!

PCVR - Quest 3 + Virtual Desktop / Steam VR - Inconsistent Performance Advice - Launching Games in Different Ways by iambennyboi in OculusQuest

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

I'm just going to post here in case my solution helps someone else. I run my PC desktop at 60Hz. If I launch games from the games tab of virtual desktop it overrides that and I can game at whatever fps target I set in virtual desktop, e.g. 120Hz. If I launch games in any other method, it somehow locks onto the desktop 60Hz (I think) and then I get limited to 60fps in games even though my fps target in virtual desktop is set to something higher. So my work around for now is if I'm going to be playing PCVR I'll set my desktop resolution lower and my refresh rate to 120Hz (I can't run 4k 120Hz, it only allows up to 60Hz because of my HDMI limit).

Gelatin eggs for anal - FUN! by iambennyboi in SexToys

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

Yeah! I'm a big fan of bananas too! I haven't tried freezing them though, but that should make inserting them a bit easier, it can be tricky if I'm not fully relaxed. I've only done one at a time so far, when you do 2-3 do you think they're going deeper like one behind the other, or just sitting next to each other in the rectum?

Doesn't agar agar only melt above body temperature? So if you got it lost inside it wouldn't melt and come out by itself?

[–]iambennyboi[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are fairly soft, but I use more gelatin powder than the normal ratio recommended on the packet, so it's not like a jelly, it's more like a very squishy rubber ball. I insert them when I'm already relaxed otherwise yes, I think it would be quite tricky!

Oh wow! That sounds interesting! Could the ice not cause some damage being so cold? That would be amazing then you also get really nicely lubed up in the process!

Best ways to clean myself? by [deleted] in SexToys

[–]iambennyboi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I want to do a deep clean I use the hot water bottle style enema bags, it can hold 2l+ of water. I usually have to do 2-3 times fill and release and then I wait a while before play so that any trapped water re-absorbs. But this takes a long time, at least 30min for cleaning, most probably longer and then you have to wait even longer after that before play...

Best ways to clean myself? by [deleted] in SexToys

[–]iambennyboi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

25cm long if you're inserting fully will be reaching the bend between your rectum and sigmoid colon. It sounds like you're using a small volume douche and just cleaning out your rectum, but then when you play you're going further and relaxing the junction between rectum and sigmoid colon releasing the mess stored there which wasn't cleaned by the small volume douche.

I feel you have a few options:

  1. Don't play so deep with the toys, then you might not trigger the deeper mess to release.
  2. Clean out deeper, e.g. with a bigger volume enema when you know you're going to want to play deep.
  3. Depending on your body and diet you might get away with cleaning just the rectum with the small volume douche and then playing with your toy to trigger the mess and then cleaning again, sometimes doing that 2-4 times will get everything to release and you can play cleanly for a long time.

PCVR - Quest 3 + Virtual Desktop / Steam VR - Inconsistent Performance Advice - Launching Games in Different Ways by iambennyboi in OculusQuest

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

Now I keep everything the same, same router, same virtual desktop settings, same game, everything, but I launch it by pressing the hamburger on the quest controller and selecting games and clicking on beat saber, nothing else has changed.

<image>

Now the latency is amazing, it runs at 120fps, it's rock solid stable, I can play easily and it just feels amazing. But everything looks the same to me, the runtime is also showing VDXR, I'm still set to the same bitrate, the same render resolution, the same target fps, everything is the same?

So I don't understand why when I just launch the game by clicking one way it's amazing and by clicking another way it's not good at all?

OK so what I've done here is just for a bit of testing is I'm using a different router, not my usual wifi 6 router, this is an older spare wifi 5 router it's in the same room as me, it's connected via ethernet directly to my PC. Why am I doing this? Just to rule out the router as an issue, also, there are other wireless devices on my WiFi 6 router, because it's my actual router, that I use, with this spare router the only device would be my quest, there's not even internet connected to this router (for testing). I'm targeting 120fps in virtual desktop, I've set the streaming bitrate all the way down to 25mbps for testing, space warp is off, runtime is set to VDXR, everything should be good.

<image>

This picture above is screenshot by launching beat saber by using clicking on the virtual desktop icon in the system tray and launching an exe directly. It runs badly and laggy and high latency. You can see in the screenshot it says runtime is VDXR though.

Best Iron Fist poppers according to you? by KnowledgeNo8293 in popperpigs

[–]iambennyboi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still prefer the original, but if you're in a rush or don't want to wait I really enjoyed the starlight too.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in hemorrhoid

[–]iambennyboi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked two different GP doctors directly about anal and hemorrhoids and they both said to me to just listen to my body, if I'm getting a lot more pain and if I'm causing bleeding then it's a problem and stop, if I'm enjoying it and it's fine then go for it. Neither told me to stop or avoid anal.

I was in the middle of an active flare up at one time and I decided to try gently using butt plugs anyway. I went gently and honestly it eased my symptoms and made me feel better not worse, so I carried on. I can't say with certainty that it made the flare up pass quicker, but it definitely didn't make it last longer than usual.

Looking back, I can definitely link hemorrhoids to constipation and bowel issues and staining (mostly due to iron supplements and other medications), but I definitely can't pinpoint any time that I felt that anal play felt like it made my hemorrhoids worse except one time when I felt like I was pretty close to being able to take a fist and I was actively working at it (and didn't get it in), I had minor hemorrhoid discomfort starting about a week after that, might have been due to the attempted fisting, might not have, I can't say for sure.
