    Public health warning, although I fear it may be too late…

        Already tried. Wasn’t enough. A 50% reduction is fucking massive though.

      that’s good you have it figured out now

      Good you worked it out. Maybe it’s contributed to the migraines, too?

      • Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        I think so because my body isn’t as tense. I actually feel relaxed for the first time in half a decade lol

        But in all seriousness, it’ll be an adjustment. I’m glad I figured it out.

      Did the doctor give you a certain dosage and you figured it out on your own?

      source
      • Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        No I was given a script and told to work it out.

      Sent a cardinal to lecture vance, turns out he was on his deathbed. Chose not to spend his final hours with vance. Top call.

      • Duenan@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        Smart move.

        That would have been one of the worst ways to spend his last hours considering their past meetings have been not so great.

      I have a widescreen monitor on my computer that doubles as a TV. I have a tiny living room x office and it works well.

      source
    • melbaboutown@aussie.zone ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      Agreed. I had a tiny one with a dvd player and after that was gone accidentally bought a huge tv online with a player that doesn’t seem to function.

      I think I’m gonna just sell it on and use the desktop to watch dvds if need be. As I put a cd drive in when I built it. Clunky but eh.

    A bit of rain - finally! Watering the garden should have worked, but I did pack away the big hose from the front garden so maybe that jinxed it. Grateful for all we get though. It’s just been so so dry - it’s far past the usual time for the autumn break.

    Tomorrow I’m going to be getting my phosphate supplement, Melbcat’s biccies, and some physical storage items from Officeworks. It’s going to be an expensive day but you know. There’s a need.

    Feeling a bit stressed for the end of the year when I’m going to have to give up my social media. It’s both really unhealthy mentally but it’s something for days where I can’t do much. I wish I knew how to do useful things like code or could get rid of this art block.

    Computer yapping

    I’ve kind of got a plan. The stuff is on my computer now and hopefully I work out how to avoid it being yoinked again when I unlink… I do have doubles on another cloud storage so I can potentially delete some of the largest files. I’m having to fight the computer on backup though. It keeps hiding the physical backup option and directing me to the cloud option… I kept digging and found a Win 7 backup option (WTF) which then failed. I do have an optical drive that could be used to make a cd copy of just these files but 1. cheap crappy thing doesn’t work and 2. storage capacity. I don’t have dvd discs and there’s no cd drive on the computer. If this little bitch keeps testing me I actually do have the ability to remove the hard drive and screw it into an external drive enclosure and rip the data off it that way. However I don’t want to mess with it drastically like that before being able to reliably back up everything else on there. And I’m still in the process getting my photos off Facebook to store locally in preparation for potentially deactivating so I need to back those up too. Also I don’t want to risk damaging that drive while doing that because I need a Windows computer to play games. I did manage to get my hands on a Windows 10 iso which I could revert it to once backup is sorted but then I would be left with an outdated insecure system. I could just buy a massive thumb drive and drag files on manually just to get myself some breathing room with freeing up my email. Some of the files are just large ie. security camera video clips.

    Halfway through s3 of Animal Kingdom, hearing about the Pope dying is a bit confusing now. I mean I’m sure he’s eventually going to die by the end of 7 seasons… Still a solidly B grade series so far, the network TV tropes are meh, but I do love Shawn Hatosy though which is why I’m really watching this show…
