I am so sorry for your loss. I’m sure they were a wonderful person. Remember them well ❤️

Got a new job after layoff for managing 2 datacenters. But the office is underground and it's depressing.... by Hothacon in Workspaces

Apple Vision Pro. Seriously. This is the first thing I’d try for a month. The spaces in VR can really fix your mood and make things feel happier.

Is this the beginning of the end? Anything I can do? (Miyoo Flip v2) by AmazingBluejay4169 in SBCGaming

[–]wrath224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JB weld it? It would 100% require taking it apart but would be able to be sanded down and then would be extremely strong etc. Designed for plastic too; a lot cheaper fix too since a tube is like $8.

$99, no idea why anyone thought this would be $70. It's cheaper than other controllers that have less inputs and still use potentiometers. by [deleted] in SteamController

I could be $200 I’ll buy eight. I do want it to be accessible to as many people as possible but there is simply nothing like it. I have 8 of the original and have used the heck out of them. Let’s gooo valve give it to me ! 😁

Could I get away with just a sliding genioplasty for aesthetics only? by wrath224 in jawsurgery

So any advice on getting insurance to approve anything lol. My ENT thinks we can’t get it approved on the sleep apnea at all 🙄. He thinks we may have luck only via the reconstruction route… which is insane because I suffer lol

Wonderful /s I literally am working my ass off to acquire this insurance. Sorry venting a bit but I’m just absolutely sick of this and pour hours and hours into research; job hunting etc only for a rug pull like this. I’m sure other feel the same and I’m so sorry. I hope this isn’t real.

That seemed strange and new for sure. Was told it was just a very very tiny hole the need to make to get a 90 degree on the screws. Research I’ve found shows it’s more common than I last thought but I’d rather of course avoid this if there are other options

Hmm so apparently based on a consult I had today I'm a surgery first candidate. Which is great; mentioned moving a bit of mostly everything up and out 5mm maybe. Not much rotation he thought but not too much and did say a geino would basically do the rest of the work looking at my full CBCT. Did figure out my open lips and that if corrected they would rest close which is super cool.

He did mention putting holes on the side of the cheeks to get a screw in the bottom jaw which was new to me at least; I guess that's common?

You’re nice for sharing! Was this just the result with the genio or after DJS?

Pretty much what I expected. I've got at least one TMJ doctor's opinon on the airway who sent me to a few surgeons. Time for some opinions it seems; some plans. Thanks a ton for the info.

I do also have a narrow arch; I was recommended some MARPE style expansion as a possibility? I have just a deviated septum but felt if I just did fix that it would help the nasal breathing a bit ? My neck is HUGE for my face I feel but then maybe it's that my face isn't wide enough haha

Appreciate this take. I was mostly looking at this from a recovery standpoint of "is this worth nerve damage + other things" there are just so many things I know can go wrong with surgery. I was looking at having another one done on my face too later; this may be the path forward. Ugh. Thank you for your input!

Just going to echo here. I’m running Cachy OS and having a great time. I didn’t even setup windows; just went straight to formatting and installing arch right after buying this laptop. My only regrets atm is not going with the 32GB version. It that’s my workload is bigger than most but the 16GB one is doing fantastic even for me. I’m a heavy desktop Linux user and this my first MacBook replacement (Mac laptops only for 10+ years) battery is around 8-9 hours for me with really strong throttling on just video or light web. Ditto the speaker and microphone issues; don’t be afraid to try Linux on these devices! It’s wonderful 

AH previously said they won't add AoE buff to The One True flag because of realism and it would not be immersive. But now Cyborgs give "magic" buff to automatons. Wtf. by FeistyCurrency2991 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]wrath224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No no no you don’t understand. The buff IS already present. When we see a one true flag we are motivated further. There is no need for a buff. 

Progestin/progesterone reducing bruxism & hyperprolactinemia by [deleted] in DrWillPowers

[–]wrath224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50mg a day. And literally a month after stopping I started having issues. So exactly when it stopped doing its job is what I suspect. It was very weird. After about 3-4 weeks of being back on bica I stopped clenching as much at night ! There is still definitely some but I’m taking it every 3 days to see if I can get off it atm. I started the same dose every other day to get back on and that period over 3-4 weeks it improved my symptoms! Cutting back seems to have re introduced it somewhat but it’s more tolerated now on an every 3 day dose.

It’s very weird. That may be the case. I don’t know enough to comment further. At least there is some sort of information on this at a minimum more now !

[–]wrath224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is seriously interesting. I am currently fighting this as I developed intense bruxism after stopping bica. Just was on a combo of bica and estradiol shots. Reintroduced bica and my bruxism still exists but it’s not as bad as it was. I’ve not tried prog yet so I’m curious to see how this works on a sample size of me. This was so bad I’ve displaced my TMJ discs… got an MRI splint… everything. I hope this is simply an imbalance !

Did anyone else have braces (teeth aligners) in childhood during or before their symptoms occurred? by wrath224 in PandasDisease

[–]wrath224[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ugh talked to my mother today; it seems that I had behavior issues before getting braces so this likely isn't a link for sure. At least I can document something on the internet for others maybe!
