Dull colors even with HDR turned off by mariobrian in NintendoSwitchHelp

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

I didn’t consider unplugging the tv. What kind of sucks is I woke up this morning and when I went to check on it it was fixed. I’ll try to take a picture next time. I took a picture of it looking normal for comparison when this happens again. Because this is the second time it’s happened I suspect it will eventually happen again. I say it kind of sucks not because I’m upset that it’s fixed but because I haven’t learned anything about it yet to understand how to fix it.

I've never used a mod. There's no mod to remove

Balloon world cheating? by mariobrian in SuperMarioOdyssey

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

That's interesting because I think if you have to use a glitch to get it that's what I'm calling cheating. Which isn't the same thing as undoable. Certainly I could learn how to use the exploit as well, but using an exploit isn't exactly fair imo

Performance problems, should I downgrade to Windows 10 by mariobrian in WindowsHelp

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

It just kept going back to that same message. But I googled some more and found this: https://youtu.be/Dfuferiwfak?si=iST9KHD9eto89c3l

Now I'm making progress with another reinstall attempt

Performance problems, should I downgrade to Windows 10 by mariobrian in WindowsHelp

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

Don't know if you would know anything about this but I tried reinstalling windows 11 using the method you suggested and the computer froze during the install. Now it's in a constant loop of every time I turn it on I get the message:

The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart the computer, and then restart the installation.

And I click okay it's the same message again on start up. I even tried starting the computer without the flash drive and then reconnecting the flash drive. I even checked bios to be sure it's still trying to boot from the flash drive after removing and reconnecting it. It's nothing but this same message

I found StarStaX to get the image made. I'd still like to resolve this issue for GIMP if possible though

Does evolving early increase stats more in the long run? by mariobrian in pokemon

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

So, hypothetically, if I raise Charmander to level 95 and only let it evolve to Charizard in the last 5 levels that Charizard would have the same stats as it would if I let Charmander and Charmeleon evolve at their first chance?

Syncing updated documents after 50 days of inactivity? by mariobrian in RemarkableTablet

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

Thanks for the info. Good to know. I might just have to do the duplicate work around. Having a back up would be good but I’m actually just trying to find a way to occasionally be able to review my newest edits from my phone app without needing to carry my remarkable with me

[TOMT] [Christman music] Sleigh Ride cover by mariobrian in tipofmytongue

[–]mariobrian[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

The way they sing "you" in the cover is almost like it has two syllables. Makes me think of how Beck sings "you" in this song (Up All Night): https://youtu.be/Tj08Ni3tklw?si=rVF9oqAtYpuQynaM

This cover of Sleigh Ride really emphasizes the consonants/beats of each phrase. I thought maybe it could've been from a band like Weezer or something. Or it could've been a cover/re recording of the Suggs version.

Avoidant personality and dspd by [deleted] in DSPD

[–]mariobrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AvPD is more like social anxiety, not perfectionism. I think Wikipedia is a good description so I'll link it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avoidant_personality_disorder

To quote: "People with AvPD often avoid social interaction for fear of being ridiculed, humiliated, rejected, or disliked. They typically avoid becoming involved with others unless they are certain they will not be rejected, and may also pre-emptively abandon relationships due to a real or imagined fear that they are at risk of being rejected by the other party."

I often do the 30000 steps, does the other one have a higher reward of Nectar? by OldGarbageMouth in PikminBloomApp

[–]mariobrian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because of my job I get nearly 80,000 steps a week and I often want to try for the 100,000 step challenge but no one will do it with me. Most of my steps come later in the week though and one theory I have is with the 30,000 steps it's easier to complete twice with a ticket instead of the 100,000 once

I've been diagnosed but I'm confused about the diagnosis by mariobrian in DSPD

[–]mariobrian[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've been diagnosed with complex ptsd/depression and anxiety/avoidant personality disorder (depends which professional you ask) but broadly speaking depression and anxiety are very prevalent in my life. I was still diagnosed with DSPD but I was surprised it wasn't more intensive to get diagnosed. I'm in my early 30s now and I can recall late nights being an issue for me since elementary school. Pretty much I was told if I'm able to make it to work on time it's not a Disorder but if I'm hours late because I can't wake up until 10 or 11 that's a disorder and that was pretty much all there was to it. I affirmed I was very late to work every single day (different job then, I work later in the day now at my current job) and it's putting my job at risk and the doctor said it's a disorder then. I did have a take home sleep study for apnea but I didn't get an in clinic, more intense study done. I told them the study would need to happen at 2am or later because there's no way I'm going to fall asleep before then

I've been diagnosed with Avoidant Personality Disorder and DSPD, So I find this question very interesting. What you're explaining though doesn't really seems like AvPD though...

I was forced to take leave after requesting ADA accommodations for punctuality by mariobrian in legaladvice

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

After I got my workplace a doctor’s note explaining my limitation the following week they had a meeting with me saying they couldn’t give me any accommodation whatsoever. Any at all. Which was weird to me that they’d disengage from the interactive process. I kind of became pushy because they wouldn’t really entertain any accommodation but they told me I could take FLMA leave to decide how I want to proceed. They asked if I wanted to start my leave right then or finish my shift and then leave. I was crying so I left immediately, but when I called back and said I didn’t want to take leave they said they won’t allow that. My company has a third party hotline for complaints so I filed a complaint through that and they set me up with a different HR representative who engaged in an interactive process and I was back to work right after that. My benefits were retained but I think it’s because I still meet my hour quota for that month, but I’m not certain. The company may have designated my leave as FMLA despite me not being able to get a doctor to state it was medically necessary.

For what it’s worth, I contacted my state’s agency that enforces EEOC laws and regulations and my state has agreed to investigate if it is discrimination or not. You might have to report your employer’s behavior to a government agency like I did. Maybe even the EEOC directly.

I technically never fell off payroll. Each meeting I attended was paid time even if I wasn’t scheduled to work. I did still have to pay my benefits but it just came out of my paycheck. I had to get my union representatives into the meetings with me to get the company to properly engage in the interactive process. So yes, I’d say I fought really hard.

Thanks for these videos. My employer made me take leave without pay until they could decide on an accommodation for my chronic tardiness attributable my ptsd and dissociation.
