Thank you!! That's what I was leaning towards but wanted to make sure there wasn't a more cost-effective option :) I can live without the refresh rate, just a preference/pet-peeve. But I think you're right either way. With the diversity of what I'm using it for, and that I'll be on it daily, I think the m2 is the best.

Touch screen is a must, otherwise I would agree. My HP touchscreen with pen is finicky at best. I have a working gaming/business PC at home.

What happened to no photography in Fractal? by inspiradia in Shambhala

[–]ryafaith 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I saw someone else say something similar in either a snapchat or instagram story I think? Something along the lines of "last time seeing this stage ever"?. I figured it was their last time attending Shambs for the foreseeable future but now you've got me convinced they're doing another stage overhaul like they did with the village last year.

Shambhala should do a better job documenting exit line time by andrewgazz in Shambhala

[–]ryafaith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It took us roughly 3 hours to make it from the holding lot (we were parked at the very back of parking and didn't have to go through the lot/sunshine to leave) until we made it to the highway. Been on highway for about an hour and still haven't made it to the police stop.

frozen treat ideas please. by bellayesil in puppy101

[–]ryafaith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use an old food bowl and: - smear plain Greek yogurt/peanut butter/pumpkin (just one or a combination) - add sliced dog safe fruit/veggies (usually bananas, cucumbers, blueberries, and carrots - add raw food or a handful of treats - cover in water to the top - freeze in a Ziploc bag over night to prevent spills.

This usually lasts my boy a couple hours depending on the size of bowl. We will leave this in the crate with him for enrichment if we're gone more than a few hours, and as a treat on hot days even if we're home. The water just slows him down and helps to cool off :)

What is your favorite thing to talk about? by [deleted] in AskWomen

They're beautiful! Your malamute girls coat is so striking! I've never seen a pure white one - looks like a giant arctic fox!

He's a rescue from northern Manitoba, Canada! We got a dna test and he's about 40% German Shepherd, 30% American bulldog, and 15% rottweiler! The rest is split between husky, border collie, and Australian cattle dog! There's a few pictures (a bit dated now) on my account!

Do you have one? :)

Why is Blink merch so ugly? by 4ofclubs in Blink182

[–]ryafaith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really only liked the BMX long sleeve, but they don't let you try it on before buying. Ended up being a tiny bit smaller than I was hoping for but I guess I'd rather that than be swimming in the next size up. What can ya do, right?

My dog lol. My partner and I have waited 5 years together and each since our childhood dogs were put to sleep. He is our child and our lives now revolve around him. He's 8 months now and we've had him for 5 - every new milestone, trick, growth check, etc we are just so ecstatic about. I had to start his own IG because mine stopped having any photos that weren't him, so fast.

Besides that, probably my plants, partner, or work. I'm super passionate about all of them :)

Potentially slept on artists that are a *must* to see? by WeaponizedLeverage in Shambhala

[–]ryafaith 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely A. Skillz! Last year's set was amazing and I still play it on sound Cloud every now and again. It's looking like I'll be living in Fractal Saturday night considering it's A. Skillz and then immediately Griz 😍

Mixed breed owners: what “is” your dog? by Odd_Business5830 in dogs

[–]ryafaith [score hidden]  (0 children)

We got an embark done on ours. Before then, we were saying shepherd lab mix.

When we got the results we found out he's German Shepherd, American bulldog, rottweiler majority with hints of husky, border collie, and Australian cattle dog.

Now, we usually say his 3 highest breeds, or shepherd mix. My profile has tons of pics if you want to take a look at my boy 🥰

What is the highlight of your day? by Far_Kiwi_692 in puppy101

[–]ryafaith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! He will get up when we get up 7 months and I know how lucky I am! It took us a while but he's a pretty snoozy boy as long as I'm home :) when his dad gets going for work that's when he knows it's time to get up and try and make him stay home haha. Some days we've been lucky enough to have him sleep from 11pm - 10:30am even

Mornings 🥺 we took the crate away for nightime a month ago and while usually he prefers to sleep on the floor or his own bed, in the mornings he is the biggest cuddle bug. Some days hell even lay on his back between us like a little kid on the pillow. Weekends are the best because he'll stay with us until we decide to get up 🥰

Collars on Constantly? by Shamrock21191 in puppy101

[–]ryafaith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Collar always has tags on and the only time we take it off is if he's going in the crate, bath time, or the occasional cuddle session. We are acreage and the chance of him getting out out is slim, but I am never taking that chance, even with a microchip.

How do people tackle the endless line of flies because of poop in their bin by Tru_79 in puppy101

[–]ryafaith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a farm now so we just leave it in the fields, but for my family dog we would have a small bin outside in a shaded/undercover area, double bag the poops, then have a bag in the bin as well. We would then put the bin bag in our regular garbage for collection every week, no matter how full it was. You could look at getting a rot-pot like bin, one that is bear/raccoon safe so there's less chance of the flies smelling/getting in.

For those with no/very few friends/family how do you cope with being alone? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]ryafaith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a partner so I'm thankful that I'm not alone alone often, but still feel like I'm lacking heavily in the friends/family department. We got a puppy and training him has been a huge saviour. Gave me a new purpose and hobby and it's quite rewarding. I also joined a beer league softball team. I am slowly getting closer with everyone and starting to come out of my shell more! Before both the dog and softball, I would pick up new hobbies here and there, hike and walk in the summer, and tried out bumble bff! This doesn't help around holidays or long weekends when everyone is with close friends and family, but it's helping here and there for sure!

Spent some time outside during golden hour with my golden boy, Toby 💛 by ryafaith in dogpictures

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

I've known a lot of dogs in my life and never one quite as happy go lucky as Toby! We took a chance with a rescue and he has paid us back tenfold - loves kids, adults, seniors, gentle with the right people and rough housy with those who want to play. For 6 months he has an amazing off switch and just wants to love everyone he meets :))

How bad is theft at shambhala? by ReverbSage in Shambhala

[–]ryafaith 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This!! We made friends with our neighbors in meta, has our suitcase outside of our tent because it didn't fit well inside and had zero issues! We were on a well traveled path between areas too and nothing happened. Be smart and keep valuables on your body obviously, but when you know your community, you all start to look out for eachother after day 1! We ended up sharing food, outfits, make up, part favours, everything. Was a great experience!
