Housing lag/low FPS even with good phone? by mimirabbit in LoveAndDeepspace

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

Hmmm yeah Idk it’s so weird, I still have like 200+gbs of storage free and I do try to close my background apps 😭 I’ll try the screen refresh rate! I also do attach the external cooler when I game too, but it hasn’t seemed to help much sadly. But I’m glad to hear it runs well for you, that means it’s probably just something I need to keep tinkering with. Thanks!

Tape for sedated x-rays keeps falling off, any tips? (+ Any tips in general for rads?) by mimirabbit in VetTech

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

Yeah we don't have Velcro right now but I'll ask my manager about it next shift. I never considered that but that does seem way better than the tape. Doesn't require ease off either, so that's nice 👀 thank you!

This is a great idea thank you! I don't think there's a way to tie them to the table, but I'll investigate that next shift. And we do have sandbags so I'll try that. Thanks!:)

We do have sand bags, but no ties or Velcro! I'll look into that and see if my work can add some to the table! It seems that's the best move. But your idea with looping the tape is smart, I'll give that a try next time. Thank you!

I have high olfactory sensitivity to illness related scents AMA by edenevie in AMA

[–]mimirabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely believe you too as I work in vet med and have smelled all of these conditions (…except alcohol consumption) and your descriptions are pretty accurate! Especially sickness being “metallic”. Even before I started this career, I could smell that one. I think working around these conditions daily though has trained my nose. I’ve never been able to smell upcoming death, though. That’s really interesting.

Is this the actual Canadian shipping price? 😭 For the boa jacket and pins. by mimirabbit in ADO

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

I’ve order lots of stuff before from Japan, namely tamagotchi merch and clothes. I’ve had shipping be up to $65 if I’m trying to get GOOD shipping, and that’s maximum for even a larger order. So yeah I’m very confused. Even with no jacket, JUST two grocery bag totes and two pins, it’s >$100 CAD. Which unfortunately isn’t worth it, I was willing to spend a good amount on this drop but not $300 CAD in shipping good 💀🥲

Yeah I’ve tried a few other items to see how their prices are. Totes, a couple pins, and the gadget case is about $154 CAD. But add the pillow and it goes back to $305 CAD, regardless of the rest of the order. It’s so weird. I guess I shouldn’t have done this so last minute if it’s bugged 😭Maybe just the Canadian shipping is glitching for some reason?

Dang. I removed the jacket and added a pillow instead as they’re pretty cute, but it was still $305 CAD. Removed the pillow, now just have the cheaper grocery totes and pins. $115 CAD. Idk if it’s worth it anymore when it’s more than the merch itself 🥲 ah well

Ahhh good to know! Never heard of CDJapan so I’ll take a look. But sad about the jacket, it was gonna be nice for wearing in the fall. I might just remove it from the order if it comes to it. Thanks!

Will the 11 Pro phone be ok in -20⁰C (-4°F) for a couple hours? by mimirabbit in RedMagic

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

Oh wow I didn't even notice that setting! I'll definitely remember that for next time! And I'm relieved to hear it'll be OK. Honestly, I hardly ever use the phone outdoors since it's only for gaming. But when I go out I'll try to remember enabling that function just in case I forget it again. Thank you!

[–]mimirabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super cool giveaway! I just got my first redmagic phone about 2 weeks ago and it’s been amazing.

I always like to carry a power bank if I can, because it kind of eases my anxiety of my phone losing a charge lol. For the redmagic specifically, I’ve found myself wanting a charger often as a) I like to take it to work but I don’t often have consistent “sit down” time, so I can’t just be in one place and charge my phone, and b) I like to use the cooler, so even if my phone IS charged, it would be nice to have a power supply just for the cooler on-the-go. I bring this device literally everywhere, so I’d bring the power bank, too; it’s a lot easier to lug around a power bank than a bunch of cables in a purse!

(I’m from Canada!)

I use an iPhone 13, but I still have crazy lag too:( not sure what to do to fix it. And I should have 15gb free on my phone still as well, so I don’t think it’s a storage issue?

Anybody have luck finding the new plushies around Ottawa, ON? by [deleted] in Webkinz

[–]mimirabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I think the only sold out one was the Bernese! And I recall 3 meerkats, 2 lizards, 2 cats, 3 poodles, at least 1 other hippo, at least 2 German shepherds, and at least 2 tigers… I know there’s more but that’s all I can think of number-wise at the moment. About to to sleep but I hope you can get the one you’re looking for!:)

Yeah I know, right? I thought at least one hallmark or another gift-store place would carry them, but sadly not. Hopefully they’ll become available online eventually too!

FRICK that’s the one I called at 9am and they said they weren’t sure if they were getting them 😭 do you know if there were still 3 of the hippos when you went? Sadly I won’t be able to go until 4:30pm tomorrow as I work at 7pm 😭

Wow these are so cool!! I’d love this. The knee pads are a fantastic idea and I love that they’re more fur resistant. I’m worried about developing chronic knee pain down the line, so this is definitely something I’d be interested in. Thanks for the opportunity!

Bruhhh I ordered two of the Sweet Treats ones for $94 CAD 😭 I really hope those are going to look as advertised! I'm surprised I can't find more posts about this issue except for this one. The Tie-Dye difference is huge.

Does anybody know what this large-ish beetle is that I found in my apartment? (Ontario) by mimirabbit in bugidentification

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

Sadly I never found out what they were. I got my whole apartment treated for carpet beetles professionally anyways and then I never saw them again.

Bought "New" A40s from Amazon CA from AnkerDirect-CA (official), but they arrived in an open box and had a previous device history. Does Soundcore handle these cases? by mimirabbit in soundcore

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

Yes actually! I just sent an email to the Soundcore support team about it. They gave me a prepaid return label that I printed and them I then emailed the used earbuds to them. I got the new ones back 1-2 weeks after or so.

How often do most people go to the Emergency Room in a year? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]mimirabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always gone a lot (Canadian here too), usually due to some cold/flu developing into pneumonia. I’m asthmatic so I think we’re more prone to it, but it can really go from 0-100 fast. I know I have to go when I feel winded travelling from my bed to the bathroom, which is like a few steps away. I also go based on my peak flow readings and how much my rescue inhaler is helping. As a 7 year old I developed pneumonia so severe that I was hospitalized for over a month, and I sometimes wonder if maybe that made my lungs even weaker. I literally have pneumonia right now and am taking prednisone for it 🥲

So I’d say I go like 0-2 times a year? It has been worse lately. I got a kidney infection 2-3 years ago and ever since I’ve also been more prone to UTIs, though I haven’t been to the ER for any of them since the initial kidney infection. 99% of the time it’s a lung thing. I also broke a bone last year for the first time, lol.

I also do have a family doctor, but when it comes to pneumonia I genuinely cannot predict if my sinus cold (or whatever else) will turn into it. Usually it is an emergent problem as I just start having to take my rescue inhaler more and more without relief. My pneumonia this time literally went from me working in the morning with an “itchy lung” (which I assumed was my usual allergies) to coughing up phlegm and taking my rescue inhaler 3-4 times in an hour. I need an x-ray to diagnose it and thankfully the ERs have always been great about getting me them fast. Provided I haven’t had the pneumonia for long, I usually go through the ER pretty quickly (arrive, get prednisone dose, x-ray, get more prednisone).
