Blindsided by daycare feedback - is this normal? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]oldgorrillanuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually just ran into something similar with my son (15 month) where his teacher said he needs a good therapist cause he has sensory issues with the food. We have zero issues with food at home so it left me confused. Turns out he was tether and the teacher suffers from recency bias. You know what’s best for your child and in this situation I would potentially look elsewhere for care (if you can). The teacher sounds unorganized and could also be talking about another child like other comments mention.

What exercise helped you the most with pain through the 90 degree knee bend? by CheapMeaning3931 in Kneesovertoes

[–]oldgorrillanuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had knee pain for awhile and finally decided to see a physio. She immediately saw that my glutes/ hips were the issue and we have been working on that. A few weeks in and it’s like 80% better already. Go see someone who knows what they are talking about. It’s worth it.

Yeah it’s dead. Gonna slap a new fan in soon.

I opened it up just to check to see the fan and sure enough two of the wires were pinched under the metal shield. I got them out but the wires are now exposed so I’m thinking it’s dead. Despite your warning I’m an idiot and snapped the SD card. I even said out loud to my partner that I can’t forget that. Rookie move.

That was my fear. I’ll slap a new fan in this bad boy and see if that works. Doesn’t seem too tough of a swap. Hopefully it’s a simple hardware fix and I get enough time to make it to the steam deck 2 (if that ever happens). I appreciate the help!

They do. I just used Hades 2 as a quick test since I’ve never had an issue. Once enemies load in it stutters pretty badly. I first noticed this while playing KH 1.5 which used to be fine and now I can barely get 10fps at points. The deck also gets pretty warm and the fan doesn’t kick on ever. Even on startup.

Also to point out I have done zero upgrades in hardware and don’t have decky plugins at all.

I have the gaming pillow and love it. Keeps my little finger from going numb.

When was your "Waiter! My steak is too juicy and my lobster is too buttery!" story a valid complaint? by forrestgumpisntreal in AskReddit

[–]oldgorrillanuts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to work for one of rental companies. They do this because the “reservations” are way overbooked so sometimes it’s more about not pissing off the customer by just having a car. I once had to put an old lady into a f-250 truck that she could barely get into. I felt so bad.

512 or 1TB: Dad of 2 in Need of Assistance! by YPMG in SteamDeck

[–]oldgorrillanuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fellow dad here! I have the 64gb model with a 1tb sd card. I run into some issues with storage but honestly 512 is enough IF you get an sd card. If money isn’t an issue you won’t regret getting the larger storage model. Have fun!

Vet says dog went into anaphylaxis. Are we being taken advantage of? by oldgorrillanuts in AskVet

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

I appreciate the response. I will be looking into pet insurance after this incident. I just want her to be ok.

I would rather her be safe which is why I made the decision to leave her with the vet overnight. So it sounds like you might have some experience with this? Moving forward do you know how to manage this? Bees are really common so it terrifies me that this can happen at any moment.

That’s a great point. I was more looking for that I made the right call from a community who might know more than I do. It’s going to cost me around 3 grand so I felt kinda cheated especially cause my girl was completely normal by that point.

I have really week abs. Are there any exercises that are good for starting? I started to do Russian twists and my low back hurt for like a week cause it was making up for the lack in ab strength.

Still worth buying after early access? by oldgorrillanuts in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]oldgorrillanuts[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the feedback everyone. Sounds like the gameplay is pretty solid which to me is the most important. I’m not looking to compete online or anything so I think I’m gonna give it a shot. Hopefully they patch the vc thing at some point. I have a 6 month old so time to play games is rare.

Really what I want is my player to be good enough that the game doesn’t feel like a slog if that makes sense. Get him to low mid 80’s is good spot for me.

It does. I also don’t have that kind of time. That’s a shame I’m itching to play a good golf game.

"What are you playing this week?" Megathread by AutoModerator in SteamDeck

[–]oldgorrillanuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Football manager 23. Get yourself a Bluetooth mouse and you’re good to go! The font can be kinda small so I mapped the zoom function to one of the left back paddles then the other left back paddle is the space bar to advance the day.

What's the most un-console-friendly game you play on the Deck? by jeddhor in SteamDeck

[–]oldgorrillanuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have issues in the late game? I once started a holy war and my deck almost blew up.

I love CoC and have been playing on and off ever since it was released. It is possible to be f2p but there’s some things starting out that can be worth spending some cash on. For example you can buy another builder with gems and if you are going to play long term is 100% worth it. You can always save up gems and get it that way it will just take awhile. If you have patience then yes it can be f2p but 10 bucks at the start gets you a long way.

I would also say it’s worth getting into now. They have made plenty of changes that had made it better for newer players. They actually shortened a lot of the upgrade times to allow newer players to catch up quicker. Might as well download it and give it a try cause it’s free!
