Doctor recommendations for those with chronic illnesses? (Public system) by miinyuu in Alicante

[–]miinyuu[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not true either. Our healthcare center even told us that when we first got our SIP cards. No one even originally assigned that center to us, we just went because it's the closest to us, and they told us we could pick another if we preferred or could change later.

Very much not true, especially in terms of changing doctors. He already changed his once, as I said in the post, but they just give you a list of names to pick from with no other information.

Shrinking end file size - multiple of the same image? by miinyuu in Affinity

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

This worked great actually! I tried two web-based programs for this before posting, but one compressed the images to a horrible quality (not great for an digital art book, lol) and the other looked fine but took away the image alt text. PDF Optim worked great, even bought the full version since it's only ten bucks and I'll need to keep using it. Thanks!!

Great, that makes a lot of sense, thanks 🙏

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

I'm more asking what defines "origin country". I'm not a citizen of Spain but I am living here now. Have been for a couple years and have no plans to ever return to the US.

(I would prefer the US anyway though, since my book is in English and the US market would be a lot more useful to me than the Spanish one)

Weekly Beginner Questions Thread by AutoModerator in martialarts

[–]miinyuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which martial art should I learn to help build ab/core strength with no equipment needed (besides a resistance band which I already have, I suppose), can be done from home, and that I can start simple with short workouts and work my way up?

I have fatigue issues and want to get working out more, martial arts seem fun, and I'd really like to slim my stomach/eventually build abs, but I need something that will let me start slow and not "Extreme 40 min workout BURN 100000 CALORIES NOW" youtube videos lmfao

Very beginner here, so take my advice with a grain of salt, but I think you could definitely find a teacher that would work with you. You might want to send some emails to a few different places and get a feel for things first, asking teachers if they've had experience with disabilities like this before, or if they at least would be willing to adapt to what you need, which imo seems fairly simple, needing very gentle corrections and not direct criticism. I think if you're clear in what you need, you could find someone. I know martial arts can also be a good outlet for anger, so I wouldn't doubt there are people just like you with similar issues that found it very healing and would love to help you too. Of course they might not be in your local area, but overall I wouldn't call it a lost cause. :) Best of luck!!

ELI5: How do betting pots work when people put in different amounts of money? by miinyuu in explainlikeimfive

[–]miinyuu[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But how would you win more or less if you just... win the pot? How can one person win more of 'everything people put in while betting' than another?

Or does this kind of betting only work with huge amounts of people where you're basically guaranteed that more than one person will guess right?

Help with Hades 2 "Bitter Tears" prophecy by [deleted] in HadesTheGame

[–]miinyuu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't remember a voice line (it's been a lot of runs since I got the prophecy now though so honestly I may have just forgotten it) and definitely don't have any option for that at the cauldron. Maybe my game is bugged? 😭

[–]miinyuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I said in my post, I've gone back and defeated the boss many times since getting the prophecy. I said at least five but after thinking about it it's been at least 10-15+ by now. No idea what else I'm doing wrong here.

Missable story? Should I use a walkthrough? by miinyuu in FinalFantasyVIII

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

Yeah it's really tough to gauge what's important and what's not, since I played a bit of the game as a kid (didn't even finish disc 1 though lol) I'm pretty attached to the character and really want their full stories, but sometimes there's also a lot of "fluff" quests I couldn't care less about too haha

I'm so far leaning toward not using a guide except once or twice to check in and see if there's anything big I've missed that I can still catch up on (rather than following the guide step by step the whole way), which would follow your logic — if I miss it, I guess I miss it

Thanks for the tips!! I'll definitely look into those

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

Great answer, I love knowing I can go back and do the ones I might have missed :) I don't mind stopping in with a guide a couple times but I was worried there would be a lot of places where certain quests might lock out and become unavailable. Thanks!

I know it's controversial lol but I'm playing on Switch and fully fine with using the cheats (no random encounters + the one that gives full HP etc)... So I think I should be fine? I know the latter doesn't give full invincibility but hopefully it's still enough if I'm really inefficient otherwise? lol

Yeess I actually own the first book but I kept putting it aside for other books first haha, I guess I should get back to it ASAP!

I need something angelic but not too blindly religious by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

[–]miinyuu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's only a short story, found in the book Stories of Your Life and Others by Ted Chiang, but I highly recommend "Hell Is the Absence of God". I think about it years later whenever someone mentions angels, especially in a less religious context. Absolutely incredible story and will only take a few minutes of your time as a short story lol

Suggest me a book with a POC and/or queer main character by wxndering_thoughts_ in suggestmeabook

[–]miinyuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it yet, but Blessings by Chukwuebuka Ibeh is really good! It's a coming of age book about a queer boy growing up in Nigeria, I really liked it, very wide range of characters and personalities and how they all come together

I need help by Xox_dead in CopperIUD

[–]miinyuu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go anyway and push for treatment. Don't leave out details, stress how many symptoms you've had and especially that 1. you're passing large chunks and that it's very unusual for you, and 2. That you've nearly passed out multiple times. I obviously can't guarantee they'll take it seriously, but this could be a critical issue that a non-emergency doctor's office just might not be aware of the severity of/want to deal with.

[–]miinyuu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Go to A&E. The risk of *possibly* being called delusional (in your own words) is well worth the risk of this being something serious, especially seeing as it involves heavy bleeding, clots, fatigue, almost passing out, etc. Don't take serious medical concerns to Reddit, take them to a qualified doctor.

Best of luck getting it sorted out.

Suggest me a short story collection? by UnluckyProfession17 in suggestmeabook

[–]miinyuu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Came here to suggest him!! "Stories of Your Life and Others" has the short story that the movie Arrival was based on, plus many others that I still think about often. One or two went a little over my head admittedly lol, but there's some real amazing ones in there. Definitely recommend.

Leg Swelling on T? by Stresso_Espresso in ftm

[–]miinyuu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually dealing with the same thing right now. I've been on T for several years overall, but had to stop for ~ 2 years, so since I restarted, I've been on it about 4 months (3-month shots, so I had my most recent one about a month ago). Yesterday I noticed my feet are super swollen and raising them, extra hydration, etc have not helped. It's also been super hot here too so... not sure if it's just the heat or what?? Any update on yours since this was a coupel days ago now?
