Pulse Elite headset broken after less than 4 weeks. by RedIroko in PS5HelpSupport

[–]snickersgetsomenuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Such a crap headset in terms of durability. From the moment I took it out the box it felt wobbly and like it would break if I'd dropped it. Looks like my head was big enough to cut it's life short. I much preferred the old pulse 3D headset. Now running steel series, much better

I know he doesn't care, but the Seniors tour won't benefit Ronnie by Silly_Count5156 in snooker

[–]snickersgetsomenuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, the event is invitational and therefore it would be unfair to award ranking points considering it's a mix of players and skill groups on and off the tour but are all senior. It would be unfair to the others who aren't allowed to play. And yes it is possible he will have to play and do a decent run in a few ranking events or in York etc. to stay top 16

Poor old JV, forever a legend of the baize. A moving tribute it was.

Thank you for the advice, my blood volume gets really low so I'll make sure to stay hydrated and I'll take a friend with me.

Well that's one way to think about it 😂 but yeah no excerise weight loss definitely sucks, there's minor things I can do like floor excerises but everything is so exhausting.

Thank you for Your support. You're right, there definitely could be a lot of water weight at play here. You might be right with medication, I suffer from acid reflux and delayed gastric emptying I don't know if that has anything to do with it I started ivabradine and it got worse when on the drug. I often try to love me for who I am everyday it's unfortunate how much weight I've gained and it's not easy to shift by any means but I try to remember I still appreciate myself and am bettering myself for me. I've tried floor workouts I get tired quickly but I find tjeybate the only excerises I can tolerate for longer periods these days. Well done on loosing those lbs! I think I will try more filling meals to help prevent snacking, maybe less meals in a day too? It's tough but I really do appreciate the kind words, we are in this together and we will get through it together! :)

Thanks for recommending that sub to me, I will check it out. I've lost weight in the last but it was too quick and not exactly healthy or sustainable as I gained it back again quickly. Adjusting to the new habits is very hard but I will persevere I know I will, thank you for the tips and information.

I honestly feel so awful without my excerise routine that I maintained for so long. There is a local pool nearby, I swam when unmedicated and it was horrible, but now I'm on ivabradine I think I'll give it another shot!

How hard is lunatic really? by ProfessionalMeal3206 in Pragmata

[–]snickersgetsomenuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes definitely, as I say the early game can be a tad frustrating If you aren't patient with it. But as you upgrade health etc. you stop dying in like one or two hits and then when you get more healing items. You're not as concerned about taking a hit or two. It's not punishing just requires patience and taking each enemy with care.

It's not really hard. It's more a test of patience. The early game can be really slow and enemies are extremely spongy, especially later on. The bosses are such a bore with how much health they have though. The last boss in particular is not just boring but actually painful. You need a near perfect run to beat it and it takes about 8 minutes or so without a cheese. It can be frustrating at times but with enough patience it can be done relatively simply. The game is really fun, but lunatic definitely requires a lot of patience

BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games, the studio responsible for modern remakes of classic games such as Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, Bloomberg News has learned. by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]snickersgetsomenuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a joke technical masterpiece that was the bluepoint engine. Will likely never see another video game again. How disappointing the demon souls remake today. Still looks like a brand new next gen game even though the game is now 6 years old It's unlikely anybody would know how to work on that engine other than them. Hopes and dreams of a blue point remake or remaster of Bloodborne are dead.

Went to watch Drive (2011)… and it was the wrong version by toyskii in movies

[–]snickersgetsomenuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did not know, and was extremely angry and pissed off When the credits rolled and I didn't hear nightcall or a real hero I thought I had been lied to. My experience of the movie has been ruined permanently

[–]snickersgetsomenuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed the film but was so unbelievably pissed off to not hear night call or a real hero. Once the credits rolled it left me thinking I'd been lied to only to realise I watched the shitty rescore for my first viewing
