2024.05.21 23:05 halfkeck Lemons aren't always bitter, a 24 Hours of Lemons story. Race 11 Part 1

"You should go to Hallett. We went last year and it was fun. A good track for Miata's"
My friend Gerry the Texan who along with his team brings several Miata's to races all over from Road America to Houston to Seibring. It's a great bunch of people who are having a blast racing Lemons. He told me that and it got me to thinking. We wanted to go to a new track this year and after the disappointment at Barber going somewhere and having some fun sounded good. Also Hallett is noted for having a smaller field so we could be competitive. I always say that Barber is more like a pro level Lemons race in that it attracts the faster and better prepped teams. Road America was like that too.
But first we have to fix the car. As typical, we wait until the race is almost upon us to start. There's the matter of how bad the car is bent from the last race where Manny hit the wall. They thought it was good but we need to check this.
After pulling the rear sub frame in hopes of replacing it we learn that a 90 is a bit different than a 91 subframe or a 2001 subframe. Supposedly it all interchanges but after looking over the differences, Youngest adds a few reinforcements at places the internet gurus say are the weak points and we put the rear end together and put it back in the car. Then we check the alignment. To my great surprise the rear camber and caster is spot on. I was shocked, but the crew did a great job that night fixing the car while it was up on jack stands. Using just a tape measure they got the car really close. Toe was out but the borrowed porta powers got the bent subframe where it needed to be.
We changed the oil and brake fluid, bled the system where we took the rear apart to drop the subframe.
Another project we attempted was to swap in a larger fuel tank. Manny who has been helping with the repairs found a article on the internet that said you could bolt in a NB fuel tank out of a 2001 or so Miata and gain a gallon of fuel capacity. Yeah, that is not possible. The tank has a hump where the car does not and would involve cutting a hole in the car which would be a bit noticeable. Not worth it for such a little gain. Good news is I now have two extra NB tanks if anyone needs one. A gallon would not seem to be that much but we are still dreaming of two stopping the car at certain tracks, stretching our mileage to only stop every two hours and 25 minutes and make a seven hour day with one less stop. It's not all about raw speed, strategy can make a difference. One less stop per day could potentially add ten laps in a weekend of racing at certain tracks.
After we got the subframe in and the car aligned Youngest pulled it all apart again. He was not happy with the bushings holding the rear differential in place. The rear has to move a bit so it is not solid mounted, it actually can pivot a slight bit. He felt the bushings holding it were letting it move too freely.
Once again we put the car back together.
All during this time Manny and FabGuy have been working hard on a new car. Manny got a little crazy on Co-part. First one Miata shows up at our shop. Then another. Then another. I started joking with the guys "Hi I'm Manny, I might have a Miata addiction". Yeah. So after a lot of looking we have three wrecked cars, one being a automatic that was absolutely destroyed. It had zero good body panels and even the front subframe was pushed back where it had got up on something in a wreck. I think the only things we saved off that car was a rear axle, engine, transmission and the hard top which was cracked but usable.
We then robbed enough body parts off of one to put on the other so we ended up with a mostly maroon car with a drivers side red fender, red door and silver hardtop. I say we but all we did at the shop was to take the cars apart, everything else went to Manny's garage where he and FabGuy installed the cage and built the car. They did bring it over a time or two to put in the air to install a few parts or when we aligned it. The build and fitment were top notch on the car, lots of nice parts went in, like a better seat and belts than we use on our Miata. Like most builds they were literally bolting parts to it the night before we loaded the car to head west.
Finally both cars are prepped and it's time to get on the road. Manny has a business where he uses two rollbacks and moves cars mostly to and from car lots and auction lots. So he gets the newer one of the two trucks and shows up at the shop Thursday morning. RacerGuy and I are already there and have hooked our camper to RacerGuys truck. I am leaving my trucks at home, but taking our race trailer and our camper. The plan is to hook the camper to RacerGuys diesel F250 and hook the race trailer to Manny's newish Chevy 4500.
The plan nearly goes off the rails when Manny shows up and I get to looking at his truck. Being in the business I can't not help but look at tires. His drives are terrible, two are bald, one is soft and one showing wire. I go to air up one of the bald ones and it's not having it. Air is leaking out as fast as it was going in. In Manny's defense his employee was driving this truck and Manny had not seen it in weeks. I had already loaded tire tools and extra spare tires for every truck and trailer in the caravan except RacerGuy's truck and I would have got a spare for it too if I had thought about it. With nothing else to do, we all jump in and start busting tires. Forty five minutes later we have four new drives on the truck and we are in a much better spot to make the long drive. I hadn't done any big truck tires for a long time, sold that part of the business. Still got it, just like riding a bike.
We find I40 and start clicking off miles. Manny has already told us the limiting factor which is that GM put a really tiny fuel tank in his truck so we are forced to stop every 160-180 miles for fuel. It slows us down but it's not all bad, we find a roadside BBQ joint that looks like a camper up on blocks that has a huge parking lot and a ton of customers lining up. Of course we try it out, the best BBQ comes from little places like that, not the ones with massive buildings.
We cross Arkansas and I think it was the first time I ever went that way westbound on 40. Came back the other side when we brought the box truck back where we bought it in California. We finally make Oklahoma and bent north to go to Tulsa. Did not see the Tulsa King anywhere, stopped in a Super Walmart and stocked up on groceries for the weekend. Hallett is in the middle of nowhere, so we are planning on eating at the track.
We get there and make our way into the paddock. This will be the first time we have every camped inside the track. They have a cross over with gates that close during when the track is hot and a tunnel for access when the gates are closed. The tunnel looks kind of tight, I'm happy to not test the posted height limits. It says our trailers should fit. Yeah we will wait.
We hustle to get the camper leveled and the generator cranked up. For the next three days it will run non-stop to keep the fridge cold and our lights on. We run the a/c but for the most part temps are very nice.
The next morning we are up and on the road after the drivers meeting. We go to Pawnee, take in some sights then hit Stillwater for some parts and pieces at a hardware store. We also gas up all our empty gas cans so we are ready for race day.
Back at the track Manny and Fabguy are unloading their car off the back of the rollback. It was nice carrying one and towing one car. They go out and practice a bit, come in and make some changes then go out again. It's a new build and everyone has realistic expectations about the car. We are all expecting issues as it takes a while to find the weak spots and fix them.
We get our car out and practice. We send three of the four drivers out and have them run a few laps. I'm about to get ready and go out when RacerGuy comes in and says he felt something pop. We get to looking and the adjuster is gone off the alternator. Look a little more and the bolt has broken off in the alternator. So we have a spare motor in the trailer but it is missing the adjuster. Looks like we need the adjuster, the bolt and the alternator. We make a few visits around the paddock to look for parts but none of the other Miata teams have what we need. Youngest goes into the trailer and in a small miracle finds the adjuster laying under the spare motor loose. He and Coach head into Tulsa on a parts run while Manny agrees to put me into their car for a few laps so I can get a feel for the track. I've watched a hundred laps on Youtube but nothing is like actually driving the track. I go out and don't push things too hard. It is a very worn surface with some patches, particularly in the groove of turn two. Manny's car drives a lot different than ours, you can really tell you have more power and grip. Their tires are a lot wider as well as having 30-40 more hp. They have been working on the car all day and just finished taking off the lines where they installed a remote oil filter, they were not Lemons grade and were leaking.
Just before dark Youngest gets the parts on the car. We also install a helmet blower, we are going to try to use the air to defrost the windshield. All reports indicate rain is coming Sunday.
Then it's dinner time. Our friends from Minnesota have brought pure Lemons art down in the form of a Chrysler Magnum wagon powered by a slant 6 that is mid mounted. It is a engineering feat and runs out nicely. Adam the team leader and I have been planning and they are cooking for us for tonight and we are cooking for them Saturday night. They show us up by putting on a feed with steaks and salad. I'm feeling bad about the fact we are serving hamburgers, coleslaw and potato salad the next night. It was great.
Saturday morning dawns and we are up and moving around. I give up waiting on a shower as the line is too long inside and try the outdoor shower. It has no roof, just walls. It was ok. The next morning I tried it again and it was freezing, no hot water!
I skip breakfast and get ready to get in the car. I want to get on the grid early as I still am not feeling great about the track. The laps in Manny's car did not give me much to make me feel really attuned to the track as I was learning both the car and the track at the same time. I want all the practice laps I can get in our car. The line up is me, Youngest, Coach and then RacerGuy bringing up the finish for the day. FabGuy is gridded about ten cars behind us and he is under team orders to take it easy to start the race.
We get out and start doing pace laps. Soon enough it's green and the race is on. A few laps in Fabguy blasts by me. So much for taking it easy. Going into turn 2 I see a car off track. I mean he's not a little off the racing surface, he's 150 feet off the corner and just about in the tree line. I wonder what happened there. I am starting to get the hang of the track and pick up some speed. Then I mess up early on and miss the line completely going into turn 9 from 8 and run off the track. I fire the car back up and quickly exit and head to the penalty box.
"what happened?'
"I missed the line and ran out of asphalt and talent all about the same time"
The judge kind of laughs, "keep it on the track" and sends me back out. Youngest has made it to penalty and looks the car over from my adventure in the dirt and grass and gives the go ahead. If you are going to mess up do it right at the entrance to pit road, it really cuts down your time off track!
I run clean the rest of the stint. I tiptoe around the corner I went off but run hard the rest of the track without pushing so hard I get off again. Then Youngest, then Coach. We are having one of the best days we have ever had at the track. Besides my adventure off track no one else has messed up. Our stops are clean and quick. Our times top to bottom are very similar and consistent. Something strange is happening. We are in the top 15 overall and since we managed to get put in B class we are doing very well. Only 50 cars at Hallett this weekend, the smallest Lemons field we have ever competed against.
Fabguy pulls off to go to the gas pumps. We are fueling on pit road but they are going to just fuel at the pumps this race. They aren't planning on winning anything so why go to all the trouble of getting all your gear on and doing hot pit stops? Fabguy comes off a little hot and the officials come over to tell them they were over the ten mph paddock limit. Manyy drives the car up to the penalty and Fabguy comes up and they are told they are good to go. Later Manny gets off the track and goes to penalty. They start in on him not serving the penalty for going too fast in the pits. "we served that penalty" The judge goes off "do you really want to argue about this" Later when they realize the team was right and the previous judge had not marked it off the offenders list before going on break. In a first the judge apologizes to them.
With about two hours left in the day their Miata is towed off. The engine is super hot and will not crank. All signs look bad. Later it cools off and will crank, but cranks with ease, signs of a engine that has lost all compression. Their weekend is done and Fabguy heads out to get a headstart on getting to work early Monday. The rest of us will pull an all nighter after the race Sunday.
I start doing the math and realize it's going to be very tight. We make our calcuations based on a normal 7 hour race day. Today is a 7.5 hour day which is a bit longer than normal when racing Lemons. I figured out the stints and got it wrong. We realize our mistake and run Coach a bit longer before we put in RacerGuy. It's going to come right down to the limit of our fuel mileage. We start planning dinner and cleaning up the paddock with about ten minutes to go when all the sudden we realize the car is not out there. We run to the pumps and find Racerguy there. He ran out and limped the car to the pumps but could not get all the way there. By the time we get the car pushed around to get fuel the race is over for the day. I feel like a total idiot, I could have ran another five minutes easily in the car in the morning and not had this problem.
But the good news is that somehow even after I went off the track and and then we ran out of gas was that we were still very good on the day. We had enough of a lead on the car behind us in Class B that we still had a 7 lap lead even after running out of gas. Even better our paddock mates in the Chrysler are putting a shellacking on Class C as well. Their Magnum wagon is running a Richard Petty scheme, they all have uniforms and the requisite trademark Petty cowboy hat and STP logos, only this time it means "Slow Through Paddock" signs and all. They actually shouted this out when doing the morning driving meeting when they were going over the rules. "STP, Slow through Paddock!" every time the officials discussed that rule in the drivers meeting.
We put everything away, rain is moving in. We are in shock about how well everything is going. Surely we will find a way to loose this race tomorrow. Will other cars be faster in the rain? Will we shoot ourselves in the foot and have poor driving and get multiple black flags? Will something break on the car which has been running great all day long? And who the heck is this Coach guy? All that and more when we wrap up this in the next part of this story. Stay tuned!

2024.05.21 22:34 Rosebud_Lotus Had to stop patches, curious on other options

Hello everyone,
I stopped taking my patches last week because my mammogram and ultrasound came back with a small mass and a cyst. It freaked me out because my mom has had breast cancer so I stopped the dotti patches. But now I feel all of my symptoms coming back in full force. My heavy fatigue, irritability, brain fog, hot flashes, etc. I am still taking my 100 progesterone at night. Do any of you take anything else in place of the patches? I was on the lowest dose but was about to increase when I got my results back. Will taking just the progesterone mess with anything? My provider said she would still be ok with me continuing with the patches but I am worried about the risk.

TCB 20s - 5 years 9 months, unknown (many) washes, details album in body text
When I first got these, I made a casual comment in a thread about them and said “give me a few weeks to get some fades on these bad boys, and I’ll post about them”. Well, here I am, almost six years later, with an evo album. That’s fine, right? Years are still weeks…
Evo album dates are, in order of appearance:
May 2024 January 2023 (sorry no shots of the back from this date, don’t know why…) June 2022 April 2021 September 2019
Detail shots are HERE (From May 2024 only).
I really love these pants. They’ve seen me through a lot: the birth of both my kids, moving house several times, they were my main work pants in a kitchen for over a year, and many hours of gardening, some construction, and, honestly, who knows what else. They’ve gone through crotch darning by indigo proof and received pretty extensive patchwork done by myself. When the time came for the first patch I reached out to TCB to see if they had any cutoff material they would be willing to part with for me to use as patches and they sent me half a yard, straight from the roll! It’s been really cool seeing the patches fade in the same way the rest of the plants have but in time delay. Wash schedule is “when they need it” now that they are pretty faded but I think I didn’t wash them for maybe 4-5 months after I got them. I do cold wash on gentle (tide pods, using the extra water setting), inside out, no spin, hang from the belt loops to dry. I figure with vintage style pants it’s ok to have vintage style fades ;)
THANKS TCB, You rock! Inoue San, Ryo, if you see this, thank you for everything you do with TCB, and thank you to the whole team, you truly do Take Care of Business 🐈🐈‍⬛!
P.s. my TCB collection is as follows, if anyone wants to see pictures of any of them just give a shout out.
20s (these)
Catboy jeans
Catboy jacket
50s in black
Wrecking crew overalls in railroad stripe
Kids wrecking crew overalls
40s jacket in black
50s jacket in brown duck (I think that’s it…)

2024.05.21 21:43 Gneiss_Rock_Bro Raptor Lining an 00?

I'm considering Raptor Lining my 2000 SE, but don't know if its worth it at this point.
Reasons in favor:
  1. Practically, the paint needs repairing anyway. Had Lots of chips and peeling down to the primebare metal when I got it. I patched some of it but not all of it.
  2. Visually, My patching is not too pretty because it's done with grey primer (original paint is silver) it's actually not nearly as noticeable as you would assume but it's not ideal still.
  3. I go offroading in the bush and even before my ownership, the sides were already pinstriped to the hell. It would be nice to have something that doesn't scratch and I am 100% NOT spending probably the price of the damn car just to repaint with normal paint that's just gonna get fucked right away again. So it's kinda raptor or nothing (except patches)
  4. I want a green paint color, (My car is silver) and like I said I am not bothering to pay to repaint this whole thing with normal paint. Paint color obviously isn't a deal breaker but having a color I like would be sweet, I can't lie. and I kinda like the unique and matte look of raptor liner more than gloss paint
BUT, some counter reasons to this consideration:
-This is a 24 year old car with 280k miles. It has a pile of minor-moderate issues, and although I plan to do a maintenance spree this summer and also despite how much I love this car, realistically, I don't know how much longer it's even gonna last.
-I don't necessarily want to get rid of this car but I do someday want to get a 4runner or something else nicer anyway. I don't know when exactly. At least a few years out, or if this thing croaks before then.
-This is also my daily car (I don't have space or money for a whole second vehicle ok?) and although I dont drive too much, I don't want to do anything that would make my gas mileage too much worse than it already is, which I wonder if the bumpy texture would affect my aerodynamics noticeably.
So taking all that into consideration, is it even really WORTH doing anything so 'fancy' to this car? I mean, mostly will it even live long enough to justify spending money on a new paint job at all?

2024.05.21 21:07 Majestic_Apricot_557 Newly prescribed to Xanax

Ok so Monday I got put on .5 mg of Xanax twice a day, and at night I’ve been experiencing these weird things during my sleep. I’ve been on klonopin before and I never had this issue with that. Basically in my sleep it feels like I’m waking up and then I’ll walk around until I pass out, and then the same thing happens over and over again until I actually wake up. It feels like a loop. I have no idea what it is but it’s just extremely weird and I’m wondering if it’ll go away over time of me taking it?

2024.05.21 19:18 prettytired25 Insane flares??? Help!

Hi y'all. I'm pretty much at my wits end.
I have a dermatologist appointment today but thought I'd ask around here anyway.
Backstory: I had eczema when I was really really young, honestly so young that the only thing I remembered of it was having a patch of it on my butt and my mom applying cream to it and then never really dealing with it ever again. She thought I had eczema on my face though it appeared as white patches and I vaguely remember this but for at least a decade or more I did not have eczema. My skin was perfect, genuinely so clear I didn't have to use much product on it.
Fast forward to November of 2019; I started taking hormonal birth control and noticed within a few months that I started getting eczema patches (also was having facial rashes but I thought this was due to trying out a new skincare) I went to the dermatologist who prescribed me Triamcinolone 0.1% ointment for my body rashes. I don't ever EVER remember using steroids much. I'd use it one to two days, and would stop when it starts to fade. Anyway my eczema was pretty lowkey in general and in 2021, we adopted a cat. I did notice my eczema worsening slightly ever since getting my cat but was managing with Triamcinolone (I think at this point my dermatologist prescribed me a tub of it I think December of 2021)
Again, I don't use steroid much and when I do I think it's really just for emergencies (my eczema was genuinely such a secondary aspect of my life I don't even remember much of how I managed it other than letting it ride and maybe applying steroid when needed). I remember the tub expired and I hadn't used even half of the ointment. I was also prescribed Mometasone and Fluoccionide? But I never used either of them as I didn't feel comfortable to.
In September of 2022, I caught COVID while overseas and it caused a pretty gnarly flare on the inner side of my elbows. Since I was overseas I just managed with moisturizing but I remember applying steroid when I came home. We adopted a second cat later this year.
Since then I think my eczema HAVE gotten worse, but there was a period of at least 6 months where I wasn't using steroid creams at all because I was either just dealing with it or it was barely there.
Fast forward to 2023.
I noticed a rash on the top of my right hand that I was initially managing with just moisturizing. But I remember having such intense itch on this rash that I kept itching, and at one point I itched with my shirt and it caused it to be infected. It was so gnarly, bright red, oozing, literally would not stop oozing, painful. I went back to my dermatologist 5 days later when I realized that oh this might be worse than just a regular eczema. She gave me Mupirocin and another tube of Triamcinolone (since my previous one expired) as well as a course of Doxycycline. I used the Mupirocin as directed for I think 10 days, and was not yet using Triamcinolone as I was worried about using it when it looked like there were still open wounds on it. I didn't finish my Doxy course because it was giving me horrible stomach pains. I came back to the dermatologist January 3rd and she told me it was OK to use Triamcinolone twice daily up to two weeks.
At this point I was already having eczema rash on my arms as well and some on my back but I don't think I was using Triamcinolone much on them (I'm pretty sporadic with using the steroid, I never really committed to the full 2 weeks)
Now, this is where things became a doozy.
January 5th: Caught strep, had difficulty breathing and had to go to urgent care. I was prescribed antibiotics, Prednisone (20mg, twice daily for 5 days), and Albuterol. I had asthma when I was younger and it's almost like it came back when I caught strep. My eczema was calm during this time and I thought it was because it rained a lot this week but now I realized it may be the Prednisone. Could not remember if I was using Triamcinolone as well on my hand during this time.
Sometime in early February: Went for a run and literally rolled my ankle so bad. Unrelated to everything else but my body sustained injury and looking back at old pictures I was starting to get patches of eczema on my legs.
Then I caught what felt like the flu in mid February and this is the first time my eczema flared to my face. My left eye was half swollen but at this time I thought it was from my sinus being blocked as it went away in a few days (though the rash stayed).
Early March: Got admitted to the hospital from Appendicitis. I spent 3 nights at the hospital and my eczema was literally non existent. No itchiness, just intense dryness but nothing else. I remember my friend noting my face was super dry but my rashes were slowly drying out. To be fair I was in so much pain the first day I was knocked out most the time from the pain medication they gave me and I was on a couple antibiotics due to the infection.
I came home from the hospital and this is when things start to really get insane. I got home, laid in bed, and immediately could not stop itching my neck and body. My face became swollen the next day but I was unable to take allergy meds because I was on antibiotics and had to wait for that course to be done. That eventually settled out.
I figured maybe I was having an allergic reaction to the cats (and thought maybe my mattress too, we had vacuumed it a few times and I suspected it disturbed the dust mites inside). I slept outside and on an air mattress for I think a few days, if not up to a week. The cats were still sleeping with me at this time and I was somewhat itchy but it wasn't the worst. Then I decided I was going to sleep in the bedroom again and this caused the worst flare I had ever ever EVER gone through. My face became so swollen, my left eye swollen again and it was oozing (this had NEVER happened to me before other than my infected hand) I don't know why this oozed since I never scratched my face, and my inner elbows, wrists and top of right hand got so red and puffy. At this point too my eczema on my right hand was starting to spread towards my palm. These areas also got pretty dry especially on my face. I called Teladoc Dermatology and they prescribed me Mupirocin for the oozing, Tacrolimus for the inflammation on my face and Triamcinolone for the body. He told me to apply Mupirocin first until the oozing calms, then stop and apply the other ointments.
At this point I had become SO SO SO terrified of TSW. It was all over my Tik Tok, my algorithm, I couldn't stop thinking and worrying about it and fearing that this flare is because I'm going through it. He told me to use Triamcinolone for twice daily for two weeks, then once daily for two weeks, then every other day for two weeks to help prevent rebound. I only used Triamcinolone twice daily for 5 days, then I did once daily for a few more days and by the time I saw my current dermatologist, I was using it every other day (I essentially tried to taper within the two weeks).
My current derma prescribed me Clobetasol and told me to mix 2oz of Clobetasol with 7.5oz of Vanicream or Cerave and smear myself in it once a day at night for one week, then once a day at night every other day for the second week. It was a very controlled instruction.
BUT I was SO afraid of TSW that I did not do this.
Instead, I took a one week break and I did 3 weeks of Triamcinolone, and even then I did it sporadically. I did about 10 days of once daily and then the second half I did twice daily. When I started doing twice daily was when I finally saw some improvements.
The problem is it has been a week since I last used any steroids and I have rebounded. Although my eczema rash genuinely looks so weird and I am having the dermatologist look at it properly today. My arms are constantly dry, my right hand (the problem spot since December) now have what looks like blisters on them and I never have eczema that look like this even though it's apparently common. The frustrating thing is that it feels like my eczema just keeps spreading. They are full body and it's freaking me out because it looks as if I have TSW even though I don't think I ever used steroids for that long at all, and I was only prescribed it back in 2020.
To be fair I thought I should've committed to the Clobetasol treatment because then we can see if the strongest steroid worked or not but I felt like I was going to flare again anyway and didn't want to use something really strong only for it to not work.
I had an allergy test done and I am allergic to both species of dust mites, dogs, cats, along with some other environmental things. I just don't understand why I am only now flaring uncontrollably like this. I am 95% covered in eczema. Either spots or just straight up long red rash. I am taking antihistamines daily and have been taking Probiotic pills pretty consistently (partly because I was on so many antibiotics back to back). I've been using Hyphocolorus Acid Spray as well.
On Sunday night, I tried to sleep over at my friend's place who did not have cats to test and see if my cats are my main trigger and I kept waking up itching myself, both my arms and legs and my chin and neck started oozing again. Which was INSANE as I did not itch either of them. The oozing on both have mostly stopped (I've only used Mupirocin and Vaseline to help control the infection and moisturize) but I just don't understand.
I'm scared, I have never had eczema become so severe so fast and I'm genuinely so scared. Something feels wrong but I don't know what it is. The way my eczema looks look like a combination of an allergic reaction and just a rash but I don't understand how I can have such an intense allergic reaction towards things I've been around all the time. We've lived in the same place since June of last year and the only thing I can think of is that we had the heater on almost daily in the winter and we found out end of April that our heater is incredibly dusty.
I'm getting my IUD removed next week as well as I'm confident birth control has something to do with my eczema coming back, and I plan to get allergy shots.
I'm just tired, it's consumed my life and it's causing me a lot of health anxiety. I look so genuinely terrible I can't even understand it.

2024.05.21 17:19 wendigos_and_witches Officially Sick of Menopause Symptoms

Hello my fellow menopausers. I'm hoping someone might be able to offer some insight or direction on where to go. Apologies in advance; I am one of those long winded people so please bear with me. 🤣
I'm 48, been (peri?)menopausal since I was about 38. I'm now very actively in the thick of it. Last October, both my husband and myself got Covid and were pretty sick for almost two weeks. I also have cubital/carpal tunnel, for at least a few years.
Ok so here is the weirdness. I've recently developed a rash on my arms. I think it appeared after Covid but I'm honestly not 100% on that. Initially I woke up one morning with what my mother called Petechia. It was just a large patch on my right arm. I figured maybe I'd slept funny or had my arm bent weird and that caused it. No big deal. But then I noticed that over several weeks, this continued and was now on both arms. It's not a raised rash and it's not been itchy, it almost looks like a weird pinkish watercolor on my skin. It's been spreading though and when I talked to my Dr he said it looks like ringworm. He prescribed an anti-fungal cream, which hasn't worked. He said if the cream didn't work he would prescribe a steroid. But I've been on a steroid twice in the last 12 months for various other issues.
I'm starting to wonder if it's a symptom of menopause but haven't been able to track anything down. Wondering maybe someone else has experienced a similar thing.
TL;DR weird rash that doesn't itch, is it a menopause symptom
Thanks!

2024.05.21 15:56 oguz279 Security Review Question: Do they count unsanitized inputs as a XSS vulnerability, even if they're not executed?

OK here's our situation:
We got rejected due to a genuine XSS vulnerability, and we've patched it.
But we saw that they tried to submit scripts into every user input they found in the app. None of which are sanitized 🥲 - but they're never executed, just displayed as strings. We've started updating every endpoint one by one to sanitize the inputs, but that's going to take a while. And SF review is more on the higher priority side for us.
Now we're going to resubmit the application, but I'm just not sure if they'll reject again due to being able submit unsanitized inputs. I'd really love to avoid paying another $1k for something avoidable.
Just wanted to hear if anyone had any experience with something like this.

2024.05.21 13:31 JordztheReddit Help with Unhandled exception "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION" at 0x7FF7A0680460 SkyrimSE.exe+14E0460

Ok first heres my report https://pastebin.com/RqfJFzS6
Secondly can tell you exactly where it happens whenever I try to walk in the space between odahviing burial mound and riften I THINK it might be the shadow standing stone or possibly the Nightingale Hall but can't even coc there as it causes a crash I've checked ALL my mods to see if they need updating still after updating no change, I ran it throught Skyrim crash Decoder and got the report below BUT I'm confused as to how it can be related to facegen when its a specified location any help would be GREATLY appriciated!
(For those who wanna use the decoder here: https://www.skyrimcrashdecoder.com/)
Modlist - https://pastebin.com/yTRe6vcw
Decoder
== Skyrim Crash Decoder v1.0 Report == Probably a FaceGen issue. Possibly missing or corrupt FaceGen data or some other NPC face related problem.
Unable to identify a culprit plugin from this crash log. Unable to identify more information from this crash log. If the crash is recurring and the above information was insufficient to point to an issue, you can try again with a new log.
Edit: Here's a Crash Logger version of the crash report: https://pastebin.com/mJqz5UHx
Edit 2: Upon further testing I've found Disabling Artifact.esp, Artifacts_Revised.esp, DBM_Artifacts_RevisedPatch.esp, PCE - Artifacts Revised Patch.esp, DBM_AmuletsOfSkyrim_Patch.esp and LOTD_TCC_Amulets.esp I can enter the shadowstone area where theres usually a Conjurer, 2 Vampires and zombies or skelle dogs BUT the Conjurer is usually bugged somehow the first time it was headless and tposing naked, second time it had purple robes and so on but even once killed and markedfordelete and reloaded the area and mods enabled again the moment I look in the direction of the stone instant CTD.
Edit 3: SOLVED - Basically I was stupid I had two versions of Artifacts of skyrim installed (artifacts & Artifacts revised) I didn't have the textures downloaded for revised and finally in my next level genius levels I didn't have a patch for AoS Revised and The Tournament of the Ten Bloods so I'm suitably at fault here apologies and hope this helps anyone else!

2024.05.21 12:23 GeoThePebble Don't know what to do about v50 anymore.

Vanilla is boring as hell, and mods aren't working right still. Only interior that works is LC Office, the rest refuse to generate, yet they're v50 compatible. Honestly how bad was this update to make mods so difficult to make compatible? This is ridiculous. I mean it took ages for LLL to even be patched. It's just getting boring. Same everything because none of the interiors work anymore. Idk. I really dislike v50, and it doesn't even fix vanilla bugs. The new moons are yawn inducing, butler is lame, old bird is ok but too rare to really notice it aside from Artifice which is boring too, man it sucks. I'm also confused why TheGiantSpecimens doesn't work either, it's on v50, but doesn't seem to spawn anything anymore. Weird cause Diversity's Walker works, and LC Office's Shrimp and Halt work, Rolling Giant too. No idea why this one specifically isn't working, unless there's another mod interfering with it. That or redwood got its spawn chance murdered in an update, idk.
If anyone knows why those mods aren't working, lmk. Game's getting stale without them.

2024.05.21 08:26 Pengeman Recurrent puncture

After two years on this bike I've got punctures.
Started with a screw.
Tried to patch it, but found countless other tiny punctures.
Replaced inner tube.
Tyre exploded, rim tape had a notch on it from the screw, taped over it.
Newer tube number 2
Pumped up OK. Flat next morning. Tiny hole, no others. Patched.
Now it's flat again.
I've run my fingers all over the rim and inner of the tyre, no rough bits.
Can I have a check list to work through please.
It's a yuba kombi, long tail cargo for the school run, so I'm keen to know it's reliable again.

2024.05.21 06:40 chimaerafeng E1 buffs

So Jade's E1 got buffed for those who were intending to go for E1. Her follow up attack damage is now increased by 32%. Also when the Debtor attacks, if the enemy hit is 2/1, Jade additionally gains 1/2 charges.
So Jade gains 2 charges if there are 2 enemies and 3 charges overall if there is 1 enemy. (Technically she gains 3 charges against 2 enemies because 2 enemies give her 2 charges then the E1 gives her another) Nothing indicates what happens with 3+ enemies ironically enough so I can't say if it is a buff or nerf but overall I guess it is a buff for MOC content.
Edit: It is confirmed that 3+ enemies do not give Jade additional charges. So basically Jade will always gain at least 3 Charges when the debt collector attacks. Overall, it is quite a bad change. Feels like this should have been included in the base kit to make her OK in MOC and other ST content. Even this E1 only feels like patching a weakness rather than making her stronger.

2024.05.21 05:47 ChefJeff69420 Very obscure issue which was unlikely to ever happen to anyone

Hey guys, I just purchased a new GPU - a 3080 TI! Super cool right? Problem is - I purchased a model from a very obscure vendor - 3DSTOR - or Tyan, a Chinese tech company. I purchased the GPU from a person on Marketplace, not thinking much of it. "oh a 3080TI, companies have had decades to perfect the craft of getting a proper PCB and BIOS, I'm sure it will be fine!"
Get home, plug it into my PC Works, install NVIDIA drivers - suddenly my 5120x1440p Samsung Odyssey G9 goes dark. Leave it for an hour, no display comes on. Restart, no dice. Plug my laptop into the monitor so it will allow me to do Picture in Picture mode - PC starts displaying on a 1440p resolution. I looked on line, it seems like EVGA had a problem with support for super ultrawide monitors. A BIOS patch fixed it! --I don't have an EVGA GPU, the GPU I have has literally never had a BIOS update. "OK no problem I'll flash a BIOS onto it from another blower-model GPU!"
Go through all of the steps, and get an error in nvflash that I've never seen, and quite frankly, it seems like few in the world have either. Firmware image is not compatible with the board configuration.
Nothing changed!
ERROR: Firmware image is not compatible with the board configuration.
I tried to flash my own BIOS that I backed up onto it, same error.
Does anyone have any idea whatsoever what I could do about this? I'm completely stumped.
I find the demographic of people who both -bought a random GPU from a company nobody has ever heard of AND -have a super-ultrawide monitor is extremely slim, which means a problem like mine will likely never be addressed.
Thanks for any replies!

2024.05.21 04:33 Appropriate_Dirt_704 Shovelling Snow onto Neighbour’s Lawn

Hi all. My husband and I moved to Thunder Bay last summer, so this past winter was our first one here. Our home has a very wide driveway and our front yard is very small. We lived in a small rural town before (also in northern Ontario), where it was the norm to shovel your driveway down the middle and throw half the snow on your lawn and half on the neighbour’s.
After the first snowfall this year, we did the same, but then we realized that maybe we should have checked with the neighbour first to ensure it was ok, and we shouldn’t have assumed. But then, we noticed that she also shovels her snow onto her neighbour’s lawn, as does everyone else on our street. Since it really didn’t snow much this year and we barely had to shovel, it didn’t come up again.
However, last week she angrily approached my husband and said that her grass has some dry patches because of the snow we put onto her lawn. She was very angry, and my husband apologized profusely and offered to lay some seed down, but he said she just stormed off.
We feel terrible because we plan to live here long term and want to have good relationships with our neighbours, so we feel really bad and will try to repair things with her. Is it not the norm here to shovel the snow this way? We’re obviously not going to do it again, and should have spoken with her first, but also - if we get a lot of snow, we actually won’t have anywhere to shovel it. Do people hire someone to plow it onto the street boulevard in this case?
Thanks in advance!

2024.05.21 01:46 MchemistS The Plight of Support Mains in Paladins: A Comparative Analysis with Overwatch

The Role of Supports in Paladins

In Paladins, support champions are tasked with healing their teammates, providing buffs, and occasionally dealing damage. However, the effectiveness of these roles varies significantly. Jenos, Furia, and Seris are often criticized for their perceived weaknesses and the low skill ceiling associated with their gameplay.

Jenos: The Celestial Lackluster

Jenos and his Astral Mark support are looked down on, he provides healing through walls over time, but the output is limited and cannot sustain Frontlines.
His Void Grip is often seen as lackluster in terms of impact during critical moments.
In comparison, Overwatch’s Zenyatta, who also provides healing over time with his Orb of Harmony, offers significant damage with his Discord Orb and charged shots, making him a more versatile and impactful support hero regardless of playing casually or at a certain ranked mmr.

Furia: The DPS Main's choice

Furia has a self conflicting identity, she struggles to maintain a balance between healing and dealing damage. While her ultimate, Inflame, grants a temporary boost in attack speed and movement, is indeed the #1 strongest ult in the game, it isn't enough to allow Furia to see success as her team always lacks healing.
The way a "damage support" for low mmr players was handled better with Overwatch’s Moira, who shares a similar dual-focus on healing and damage, excels with her Biotic Grasp and Coalescence, offering both substantial healing and significant damage potential, thus providing more value to her team in that mmr.

Seris: The drone 4v6 champion

Seris is designed to be bad for noobs with a straightforward hold the button and hope to win mentality.
Her ultimate, Convergence, can be powerful but is highly situational and easily countered.
Seris mains are engaging in a low-skill, repetitive and boring playstyle.
By contrast, Overwatch's Mercy, while also straightforward, offers game-changing abilities like Resurrect and the flexibility of her Valkyrie ultimate, providing both significant healing and mobility that wastes enemy dps time trying to hunt her down while healing herself and staying in the fight, while both are considered low skill champions, Mercy at least has some tech and mobility to allow fun to be had while playing, unlike Seris who is either healing while AFK or has to commit to playing damage.

What overwatch does better compared to Paladins

Design wise, sometimes less is more.
Enabling cringe such as solo support Ying Resonance completely defeats the point of opening the game and spending 10 minutes of your life in queue.
Similarly, self compromise with solo Corvus Dark Gifts/Stunning Visage, solo Grohk (any talent), solo Furia (Solar is almost fine but the rest is bad), are some of the most agonizing experiences for any Frontline player, almost entirely defeating the point of picking Frontline, both in a casual and competitive setting.
Furthermore, some cards in Paladins simply do nothing for certain talents, such as Ying's Shatter cards other than Brittle doing literally nothing for Life Exchange.
Some of the most underwhelming experiences is playing with a default loadout Grover, with no resets, no range, and no survivability, a truly agonizing experience.
Similarly as will be even more popular next patch, Rei players will showcase to us some of the worst default loadouts both in casual and ranked play.
In a meta of double support, we can only hope and pray that popular streamers become even more popular and showcase how to actually build your supports, because what hurts more than a solo support going damage? both of them doing it and being bad at it.
What overwatch does better is: lack of customization on supports + ability to switch heroes mid match allows overwatch players to adapt a little, plus there's always 2 supports so hopefully one of them is healing, maybe both, but there isn't anything that states "you now heal less" in overwatch unlike Paladins where most supports only have a single viable healing build (that being Grover with Rampant, Ying with LE, Io with Sac or GB, Corvus with SI, Furia with SB, Jenos with Luminary, and Rei previously with Focus and later with Ambi).
My honest thoughts: I like customization, but I do not like how bad the tutorial in Paladins is, nothing is explained to new players, and we have level 999 players playing with the default loadouts because no one showed them how to access the deck building menu (this is real).
Honestly speaking, there is no game design method to fix any of this, and that is why Life Rip 60% is OK, it just gives you a chance to mitigate the drone on your team and you might just win!.
What I would do if I was a game designer: I would build a tutorial, unlocking any champion would send you to the shooting range, Text to Speech reads your ability descriptions, while a demo of the programmed AI showcases what using those abilities looks like from a 3rd person perspective, then showcases how each card augments each ability, and how the legendary card (talent) does.
Of course I would have to build that system from the ground up, and that would have been the right thing to do for a game like Paladins, alas, it is what it is.
Thank you for reading, please leave a comment.

2024.05.21 00:13 SlimeSpree HUGE Pilot Review (with pics!)

HUGE Pilot Review (with pics!)
I'm so excited to finally be reviewing Pilot! This is gonna be a long, info and image dense one! Lets go!....
Pilot Slimes, USA.
Variety of sizes from 7/7.5/8oz costing between £12-16. Fantastically designed waterproof labels. Some of the jars are PS which I’m not a fan of as they can’t be squeezed to aid in slime removal and it’s a nightmare, if not impossible, getting the labels off them even with the scotch tape method. They always come off PP pretty clean using this method. However, the textures that really need to be squeezed such as crunch bombs do come in PP jars.
https://preview.redd.it/p98sicrz8n1d1.jpg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a517408c01976e714d1bbe3496463b423681cc0e
I placed a couple of separate orders having circled back round after nabbing the ones I wanted most. It turned out to be unnecessary shopping from Pilot this manner! I really didn’t know what to expect and whether things would sell out in a frenzy but that wasn’t the case at all so you don’t have to stress!
It was a lovely surprise to get a super sweet email from Travis from Pilot asking me if I wished to combine orders. I really appreciate this level of customer service from a slime store as, I know it sounds silly, but I know what its like to be rammed with orders and emails after a product drop and don't want to further add to a team's stress by bothering them to dig out and combine my orders when it's my fault I shopped that way. Travis even wrote me a thank you note on the inside of the box flap so respect to Pilot for their absolutely stellar customer service!
Inside the box was a fat baggie of Borax with a sticker, a beautifully professional, large sized care card. Everything was extremely well packaged and the slimes were combined individually with their add ins which I very much appreciated! They also very kindly sent me two medium sized complimentary slimes.
I should state that I always put all my slimes in the fridge for 15 minutes prior to a review. I think that gives all slimes a fair and common starting point from which to judge them and takes back any stickiness in the event of hot weather. After reviewing, all my retained slimes are kept in a cooler at 10c/50f/degrees and 70% RH to ensure longevity and maintain them for future play. I will report back on their longevity in a few months time but I don't keep them all, only my favourites which I will be certain to want to play with again, with the rest given to friends.
Most of the slimes were a tiny bit over-activated on arrival which is actually something I appreciate and see as conscientious by a slime company. It is something some of my favourite stores routinely do (such as Momo.) I don’t add glycerine, I feel it makes them stay playable without the need for activator longer and allows them to melt down gradually on their own. I personally enjoy a bit of over-activation as it adds a slight crunch to some textures when you stretch them which I personally find satisfying. The down side is that cetain textures may be a little rippy but this was a minor issue with Pilot.

  • 1UP WIP (wip x clay, zooted at the carnival scented)
I thought the theme with just SO MUCH FUN! 🤩 The scent is gorgeous and just my jam, kind of like vanilla cream with wafts of cooking donuts. As I played, I start getting hints of mint and a notable suggestion of weed. Whether this was by design (considering the scent's name) or psychosomatic I’m not sure but this is a very pleasant and multifaceted fragrance that tells a story in scent as you play and I really appreciated and enjoyed that!
This is a puffy, stretchy, firm cloud creme, very slightly towards the doughy. It’s holdable, jiggly and gives a hollow “tup” when you give it a love tap when it’s fully inflated. It is very stretchy with clicks that get louder as it inflates and little crackles and pops. Lots of soft sizzles as you deflate. As mentioned above it was a little over-activated which made it rip just a little if I stretched too fast.
I loved this theme so much. The label was beautiful and assembled it really entertained me!

  • CRUSH’S KUSH (seed bead crunch, eucalyptus and mint scented)
The scent is soft and slightly soapy/bubblebath leaning and pretty fresh. Stunning pigmented clear slime sits on top of a compacted biscuit of seed beads that feel incredible to crush through and combine. Once fully combined I don't find seed beads the most exciting by they do create a good froth up for some crackles and pops. This is perfectly activated and not in the least bit sticky. Very stretchy with just the right amount of resistance. I did have a little bit of fallout with the beads but nothing bad. Not in the least bit pokey and gave my hands a pleasant massage.

  • SCOOBY SNACKS (slay mallow chew, sour patch kids and hemp flower scented)
The first scent I was hit with was the sour patch kids with a subtle hint of weedy/fruity florals. This is a very dense and ultra chewy, somewhat chubby texture which is reminiscent of a butter and a snow creme but not quite a snow dough. It’s very holdable with medium clicks and some very good bubble pops from the sharp to the loud and low. It is a little bit rippy as you stretch due to slight over activation and becomes fairly matte with play. This was a nice enough texture but one I feel I’ve been over-saturated with from multiple companies of late.

  • TOASTED (thick Korean clay butter, buttery baked bread and rosemary scented)
The scent is exquisite, exactly like a delicious, moist rosemary ciabatta. It made inviting little sizzles as I spread the sprinkles into place on its micro-bubble covered surface. This is extremely moist, plush and ultra stretchy and jiggly texture. The scent is just so pleasurable as you stretch and inflate it. This is a very slightly denser, more robust version of some of the Yyoung airy, inflatable slimes I got from Seoul Gage. Medium-loud clicks that increase in the volume and sharpness as it inflates and very soft pops. This is great for soft sizzles and micro pops as you deflate. This was a nice texture but I was really hoping to come across one which naild what I had in mind for the famous 'wip' texture and this wasn't quiiiiite it. I'd buy it again thought, it was nice and the scent incredible.

  • BERRY HIGH (pigment putty, blueberry waffle cone)
I was getting an extremely mild berry scent with a whispering hint of biscuit. The base is a spectacular, deep pearlescent emerald green with flashes of violet. This was a beautifully activated putty with no stickiness at all. This is an extremely chewy, ultra thick clear with medium clicks, tons of crackles and snaps and tremendously loud bubble pops. It inflates like crazy and gave me some of the most dramatic air bubbles ever. It ended a pretty silver with a subtle cyan and green shimmer. This was fantastic! I never get bored of stunning pigments in clears and this was a top class slime in every way.

The bubble factor in this slime was pretty wild!

  • SEA CUCUMBER (bouncy coated cleaicee / cucumber melon scented)
A very fresh scent leaning more towards cucumber with a hint of melon. Another very beautiful slime with fresh colors to go with the fresh scent and theme. It combines to a very pretty, plush and chubby seafoam coloured jelly. It has medium loud clicks and plenty of loud snaps, crackles and pops. A little bit over activated and rippy again but I’m OK with that, you may prefer to add a dot of glycerine depending on your personal preference. I’m not a huge jelly fan but this was a very nicely made one.
https://preview.redd.it/tcs6cfjmcn1d1.jpg?width=8896&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1b7c30c182f78a75d106c6193a56de3459c5f549

  • SOUR GRAPES (mini frogspawn & regular frogspawn, sour grape scented)
This comes in a squeezy PP pot, which is much appreciated in order to get it out with a few squeezes! This has a subtle, sour grapes/candy leaning scent. Frog spawn beads are my favourite type and the croaks these emitted were just perfect. I also love the popping colour scheme!
This is a texture I mostly like to slowly push and squeeze to maximize the croaks and it works so well with the combo of beads. It has some nice crackles and little pops when you stretch it and fold it. The base is a thick, resistant and chewy putty and has no stickiness. This was the perfect frogspawn crunch bomb and I very much enjoyed it! I would 100% grab this texture again in a heartbeat!
Ribbet! 🐸 🫧

  • SEABERRY DELIGHT (mini frogspawn, mini bubble bead, silica sand/ turquoise waters, hint of berry)
A Fresh, mild, beachy perfume upon opening. It’s a shame it’s so difficult to capture the true color on camera as it has a gorgeous lilac shimmer which contrast so nicely with the turquoise. Unfortunately, as I played the scent took a turn and an almost fishy chemical smell came to light. There was a warning on the website that the beads can kick out a bit of a plastic smell and it was very strong and unpleasant to my nose. However, sounded amazing, extremely fizzy and crackly and absolutely exploded with small sharp pops when you inflate and squeeze it. What I find a shame is that it starts out looking so incredibly stunning ends up comparatively boring in aesthetic but that is just how it goes with particularly beautifully designed slime sometimes!
Overall, this isn’t a a particularly pokey texture BUT…. The other day I seemingly upset someone who voiced their discontent after I noted and warned in a review that a slime had the potential to cut skin. Admittedly, the texture I am referencing was a far more notably rough one. However, I did find several pieces of silica in this slime that had the potential to be dangerous and this time I took photos to demonstrate this. This isn’t the slime maker’s fault, it is unfortunately inevitable that some broken, sharp pieces will manifest when dealing with large batches of silica and you do have to be mindful as if you catch one wrong and you could scratch, nick or quite seriously pierce your skin.
Once again this is NOT a direct criticism of Pilot seeing as this is common in any slime of this texture. If you buy silica slimes from ANY slime company I would recommend you have a careful look and feel through the slime prior to play to ensure there are no dangerous pieces, especially if you are going to hand it to a less experienced slimer or a child. I feel it would be wise for shops offering this texture to put a little warning on their website that sharp and broken pieces could be present and need to be checked for. Admittedly, this has put me off this texture across the board (apart from the Rodem ones which seem to include particularly well rounded, small and smooth pieces of silica.)
This is one of the prettiest slimes I have ever seen first opened but I find it comparatively dull combined which is a shame!
There were 5-10 extremely sharp silica pieces in my jar so PLEASE be careful with this texture from any company and remember that silica is a component of glass. This is not an issue unique to Pilot or a criticism of their rendition of this texture at all but I would be mindful that this can happen in any silica slime. (Please excuse the gross macro shot of my dry slime fingers 😆)

  • PANNA COTTA (DIY clay, fluffy butter, jelly/ wild berry panna cotta scented)
A beautiful, fresh, creamy Panna cotta scent with notes of berries. The texture was plush, resistant and had a firm jiggle. It felt like it had snow in it and was dense and a bit towards the chubby, with a slight jelly feel. Very stretchy with some good pops in it, soft pokes and plenty of soft sizzles.
https://preview.redd.it/pmmi7c9mfn1d1.jpg?width=1841&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=44e28fa2351c427c90412b003651c000cbb1c10b

  • STRAWBERRY BLUES (fimo crunch, blue raspberry & strawberry soda scented)
A subtle berry scent which is quite pleasant. This slime has a beautiful lilac shimmer which is always hard to capture in full on camera. It was lovely in the hands, the fimos were soft/bendy and non-pokey. The base was ultra thick with lots of resistance and very well activated. It had some loud snaps and small sharp crackles and some pops to it. A very nice slime!
https://preview.redd.it/yanplep8in1d1.jpg?width=1319&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7080ccfcd5ee730ceeb6f461809abccf32e9b604

  • MAGIC MUSHROOM (bouncy coated clear, garden thyme scented)
While this is a perfume based scent, the thyme comes through and it is very beautiful indeed. Pilot have absolutely nailed the stunning pearlescent pigmented clear slimes, this is glorious to behold! It’s a great clear to play with, as most of their clears are. Clicky and full of snaps and sharp pops.
https://preview.redd.it/d773neupin1d1.jpg?width=1800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f09b1c28911baffee5edac8bd0d05ded194e3c4f

  • PURPLE HAZE (mini bubble bead crunch, lavender vetiver scented)
Carrying on with the purple theme, here we have another beauty. Again, the website did warn that the beads had a plastic scent and unfortunately they overwhelmed any scent that the slime may have had. I came back to it later and could detect wafts of lavender and vetiver but the horrible plastic smell overpowered them. I have had these caviar beads before from other companies and I really don’t recall them ever smelling this bad. This is redeemed a little by how beautiful the purple balls look in this slime, it feels good in the hands is fun to stretch creating lots of decent bubble, pops and crackles. A few balls did fall out of this one but nothing bad. I am sad that such a lovely slime has this issue with the smell! 😞

  • CRUSH’S CUSH (base only) (coated clear, eucalyptus and mint scented)
The stoner sea turtle is back! This is such a pretty base I couldn’t resist getting it on its own! This is such an incredible, ultra thick coated putty, full of crackles and pops and I really do love it. I know many folks find clear slime a little basic but I personally enjoy the feeling of no or few add ins and popping hella bubbles. I find the visual element very stimulating and enjoyable so love Pilot’s offerings on this front! They smash it with the incredible pigments!
I personally think this is also prettier without the seed beads after play.

  • HONEYDEW MILK TEA (ultra thick x clear, honeydew milk tea scented)
A nice, fresh, slightly creamy melon scent. This is a lovely, thick, slightly glossy wood glue texture. It’s slightly over-activated, giving a nice crunch when you pull but getting very chewy and stretchy as it warms up. Quiet finger pokes that get louder as it inflates. Medium volume pops and crackles and plenty of them. I very much enjoyed this texture along with its beautifully fresh scent and colour.
https://preview.redd.it/rh01lf7skn1d1.jpg?width=5435&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=380bed34f14a9d730a9ea879435e231c39c0377c

  • LEMON MERINGUE (DIY clay/wip, lemon meringue scented)
I really did adore this scent, a very creamy and realistic, nostalgic lemon meringue. This was the best scent of the bunch in my personal opinion (with the rosemary bread of 'Toasted' being a close second.) I absolutely loved the combo of charms on this one, it was just so very pretty and charming. The whipped cream mini clays had dried out but this was warned on the website. This texture was quite wet and a bit greasy at first but this is typical of such textures and you have to keep the faith. The little clay whipped creams did not combine into the texture, but they will rehydrate and combine with a little time and rest.
This is a GORGEOUS light, fluffy, moist and jiggly snow creme with nice, moist, clicky finger pokes. This is far closer to what I imagined when it came to Pilot’s famous “wip” texture reminding me of a floofy, whipped honey butter sort of texture, I personally found it a preferable texture to 'Toasted.' It inflates loads and gets airier and fluffier as you play. It also has some great bubble pops. This was a fantastic slime and certainly the star of the show for me. I am now very keen to get my hands on more like this from Pilot.

  • Free slime: PIZZA PLANET (fluffy butter chew, pizza dough scented)
The scent is slightly savory, a tad yeasty and I had a hint of rosemary to it, I thought the whole concept was really cool and well done with the little baggie of (possibly corn flour?) that you rubbed on its surface. The whole theme, scent and colour of this dough had me, a whole ass adult, humming “That’s Amoré and pretending to be a pizza chef! Haha! This was a moist, chewy butter that inflated plenty and gave lots of lovely soft sizzles and some medium pops.
When the moooon hits your eyyye like a biiiig pizza piiiie....etc. 😂
The second free slime was an unnamed silica, seed bead and fish bowl crunch bomb which I am saving for a friend as it’s hard to review a no-name slime because I can’t tell you guys what it is in order to enable you to buy it!

CONCLUSION:
I’ve heard people say they were underwhelmed with Pilot and I can understand where they are coming from. I believe that it’s because the extreme hype leads us to believe that some sort of new slime innovation is coming our way, just to discover that the textures are all particularly familiar to us and very common to many other slime companies. I didn’t experience any textures that were new, unusual or particularly nuanced and sophisticated although I thought the lemon meringue was one of the nicest of that particular texture (and combined scent) I have experienced of late.
In my opinion, the manner in which Pilot shines and DOES deserve hype arises from the fact they are all VERY well done, extremely professionally made slimes. Nothing was sticky, I feel the slight over-activation is a professionally conscientious move, there was no mess or spillage on the containers, the labels were absolutely beautiful, the packaging and care card lovely and the themes all absolutely fantastic.
I found a small percentage of the scents to be excellent and the others somewhat faint/underwhelming and, in light of the plastic beads, some very unpleasant unfortunately. The overall impression I got from Pilot was a very polished and professional one and I personally very much enjoyed my order and will retain with enthusiasm. However, my future purchases from them (because there will be future purchases, they won me round) will be more targeted and far more modest. I would certainly be interested in more light wips, frogspawn crunch bombs and pigmented clears. The caviar and seed beads lost me and I just give up on silica at this point (apart from Rodem's) I’m afraid. The denser snow cremes didn’t really capture me and the scents are definitely something I will be a little more considered over when I shop in future. I thought they nailed the sweet/creamy/bread scents, they may be my preference scent-wise but they are not always done well. All in all I feel that Pilot are worthy of a solid 9.5/10

2024.05.20 23:33 GinnyMcJuicy So many infections

I'm on my 4th infection in 6 months. I'm a type 1 diabetic and have been for 26 yrs, but I have never had infections so often. I think I had cellulitis once on my life a decade ago or so.
I had two utis 2 months apart, cellulitis a month ago, and now I have cellulitis again. It's on my left shoulder. My right side of my neck has huge swollen painful lymph nodes. Seriously I look like john McCain and swallowing is hard. I went to urgent care (again) and got anti biotics.
My recent labs show slightly low wbc, hgb and hct, and slightly high platelets (maybe. Platelets were 404, but some places say above 400 is high and some say above 450 is high). The labs were taken with the last cellulitis.
I also randomly now have excema so that's fun.
About 4 months ago I started getting fissures on my perineum with a figure 8 white patch around my vulva and anus. I have a gyno appt and suspect lichen schlerosis.
Why is my body doing this? Why I am getting all these infections?
I likely had a heart attack in Sept but didn't recognize it. When I described my symptoms she asked if I had medical anxiety and I said no, so she ordered an ekg which was abnormal (short almost non existent ST segment).
My NP says it's probably stress and maybe I have anxiety, which is just like... OK.... I don't think that's it.
Could all these issues be unrelated or could there be something systemic going on?

2024.05.20 23:26 dloop00 Flutter pubspec.yaml versioning for Play Console testing

I'm sure this is an easy one but I'm tired of hitting my head up against it, so I'd appreciate some help on it.
I developed my first flutter application and deployed the first app bundle to the Play console for Internal testing. In my pubspec.yaml file i had:
version: 0.1.0. That went upload went fine.
I then fixed a couple bugs and wanted to upload a patch release.
I change my pubspc.yaml file to show version: 0.1.1. Saved the file, rebuilt the bundle. But when I upload to the play console I get: "Version code 1 has already been used. Try another version code"
Ok, so I try again, but this time with version: 0.2.0 in my pubspec.yaml. I save the pubspec.yaml. Rebuild the bundle and again when I upload the bundle I get the same: "Version code 1 has already been used. Try another version code"
What am I doing wrong?

2024.05.20 22:13 Life-Hacking Any ideas on correlations of why some can't sleep on Cerebrolysin while it puts others to sleep? (Included all best time to take posts)

Trying to determine best time of the day to start. If brain fog is indeed caused by neurogenesis, I'm hypothesizing that those who need more brain repair are the ones having issues with it making them tired, maybe more healthy brains it's making them more awake.
Thoughts on this or suggestions on the best time to take for brain repair?
(All Reddit posts I could find on the best time to take)
Morning:
I take mine in the morning. If I take it before bed I feel like I start doing some uncharacteristically deep thinking. No anxiety, just planning stuff out and analyzing things for no reason. Feels like the thinking continues during sleep and I wake up feeling weird but not tired. Doesn't really make it hard to fall asleep though, just not a comfortable way to sleep.
Mornings. Hard time sleeping as it is.

On to the issue. I’ve been taking it at night, then i wake up 4 1/2 to 5 hours later wide awake. Coming off my second concussion I figured I probably need more sleep than that. Usually takes an hour or hour and a half and then I get back to sleep for another 4 or so hours. Has me somewhat oversleeping, and probably not great for my circadian rhythym.

On my first dose it was 5ml and it felt like I had just done a line of cocaine 🤣🤣. I would only use this early morning from my experience

Take it in the morning so it doesn’t the affect your sleep, you NEED your sleep specially deep sleep for your recovery, sleep is extremely important

Since I’ve switched to taking it in the am I’ve had no issues outside of being a bit more agitated than usual but i think even that’s starting to calm down.
_
I've had the same issue with Cerebrolysin. Sleep for the first 2 hours then awake the rest of the night. It's destroying my gym routine.
_
if I take 10-15 I’m almost wired and stuff

I’ve only done up to 5 ml in a day and consecutive days. I’ve only ever felt crisp and clear. My morning coffee I had to reduce to one cup as I was humming on 1 vs 3-5 not doing much.I was titrating up. 1, 2, 3,…

Morning. I can’t imagine dosing night …. I get A LOT of energy from it.
Night:
IM I could do at night, before bed. It didn't wake me up and I could sleep fine. I would feel really tired about an half an hour after a dose, I would have deeper thoughts not long after administration but nothing racing that I couldn't go to bed. It worked out well to put me to sleep
Defo do it before bed or in the evening. It can cause brain fog so I used it in the evening and had no issues with insomnia
I usually do my injections about 20 minutes before I get into bed. The sleep quality is remarkable and I wake up feeling refreshed.

I generally dose at night

cerebrolysin feels like a small dose benzo/opioid to me. maybe like 0.25-0.5mg klonopin / 5mg oxycodone. very relaxing and very very chill. it clears up after a nights sleep. i pin at night for this reason. 5mL and up i get that brian fog. 2mL doesn’t do it.the brain fog is the neurogenesis being put to work-Dose at night. Cerebrolysin is sweet brain nectar just make some adjustments so you don’t get that brain fog/lethargy when you need to be productive.
Mid Day:
I found the mornings were ok and despite very mild physical side effects, like temperature sensitivity, it seemed to enhance my work day. Afternoon's were very ideal, but late evening caused me to lose sleep.

Run it during the daytime if it affects your sleep negatively

2024.05.20 21:17 _itsa_me_Mario Garden refurb

Hey all, hoping you can help me. I have a few different patches of grass in my garden but I have a small patch that I'm hoping to turn into a... Serenity patch I guess lol. I need to skim the grass off to pebble it with some build in beds, I have a place I can relocate the skimmed soil it it would bury a well established tree about 1-2 foot. Is this ok or would the bottom rot as I'm thinking it would? Thanks in advance
