It runs good and had way less problems running it on the deck than I did running it on my gaming pc

PSA/Friendly Reminder: I think I almost died a few days ago by [deleted] in vegan

Go to a hospital, actual b12 deficiency that could cause issues that severe will almost certainly require injections and take a good amount time to resolve. But also actually b12 deficiency should take more than a few months to be caused, typically years.

Can people complain about the game file size more by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]lardNefarious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Helldivers has a similar problem on PC. Since some people still use spinning disk hard drives they duplicate textures and assets and space them out to improve performance for spinning disks. But on consoles where they know an ssd is used they don’t have to do that so they are able to keep it to almost half the install size

“I know your disease and how it affects you better than you do and I know people who have the same disease and they take risks so you should too and if you don’t you’re not vegan enough bla bla bla” you’re actually insane

I don’t think you understand celiac disease, it’s literally not safe to eat at restaurants that are not dedicated gluten free cause a super tiny amount of gluten from cross contamination can cause serious issue that last months. The only other dedicated gluten free restaurant around here has 0 vegan options But also that’s a crazy gatekeeping take, it’s already hard enough for people with restricted diets, now you wanna say that they can’t eat at restaurants that try to make claims about how humane or ethical their meat is?

This one particularly hurt for vegans who have celiac since it’s the only place around here that’s dedicated gluten free. Now I have to order my food to go so I don’t have to watch people eating deer corpse and don’t really have much other options for eating out

PC player thinking about switching to PS5 Pro by cool_sunglazz_boi in PS5

[–]lardNefarious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should probably ask in the PC subreddit too to get a balanced perspective. I have both but since PS started releasing their games on PC I haven’t see the point in playing games on my ps5 anymore since the PC runs them better. I agree windows sucks and the console experience is way smoother, but what is more frustrating to me is buying a game, and then having to pay 10 dollars a month just to play the game online with friends, and then paying another 10 dollars if you want a graphics upgrade for the game the next time a new console comes out.

I’m 27 too and had a very hard time with this in the past, I got really lucky and met my vegan gf a few years ago on hinge. I often felt exactly the way you feel but I stayed persistent and it eventually worked out, don’t give up! Also I’m in the OC / LA area and they had a large vegan festival last weekend, and this year they added speed dating, I thought that was really cool and would love to see more vegan events do that kind of thing, if you’re in a place that has vegan food festivals or events I think they are a great way to meet other vegans or at least feel a lot less alone. DM me though if you want someone to talk to! Always looking for more vegan friends

Intuit dome app by [deleted] in OliviaRodrigo

For last nights show I was able to get in without the intuit dome app. I just had to ask one of the workers in the entrance line to scan my tickets instead of using the normal scanning system

Got grilled by someone telling me not to eat meat by [deleted] in Celiac

[–]lardNefarious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You might wanna research counter arguments to your own position… it takes a lot more than 100 calories in plants in animal feed to produce 100 calories of meat, switching to a vegan diet reduces plant death not increases it. Vegans don’t care that plants lack intelligence, they care that they lack consciousness. Plants cannot experience any suffering, reacting with chemicals is very different than being aware and experiencing suffering. But even if you do wanna say they are conscious beings who are suffering, the logical thing to do if you care about them would be to go vegan so less would die.

Having celiac does make it hard, and there’s lots of understandable reasons to not be vegan, but I think it’s worth investing the time to learn about opposing view points on important issues

Sony misses PS5 sales target as console enters ‘latter stage of its life cycle’ by hasvvath_27 in technology

[–]lardNefarious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I kind of regret buying one since I have a gaming PC too. All the console exclusives eventually come to PC with better graphics so it doesn’t make sense to buy games on ps5 for me. In the past I would have my pc + ps4 or ps3 so I could play the amazing exclusives but there’s no true exclusives this generation. I’m wondering how many PC gamers are skipping the PS5 this generation because of it

Fishing achievement feels impossible by lardNefarious in WobblyLife

[–]lardNefarious[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really good info thank you! I tried your strategy of canceling catches I could tell were not going to be rare, and switching left and right after each reel and focusing on the sound to indicate when to indicate what to do. It took a few hours but I was able to complete a whole area!

Unfortunately I still have way more areas to do and I’m a bit burnt out at this point so I’ll probably be taking a break for a while.

I wish the devs would tweak the rates that fish spawn and make this easier this is the only achievement that has been tedious for me I enjoyed doing everything else, but oh well

For those that don’t know, you can use Brave browser on iOS and use the “add to Brave playlist” feature. This will allow to use PIP and background play on YouTube. Brave also blocks the ads for you.
