I had severe headaches for years before a doctor that I trusted talked me into getting help from a local chiropractor with a good reputation. I’ve since learned a lot and would recommend a massage therapist or PT over a random chiropractor. Even then was skeptical. But this chiropractor was able to demonstrate exactly where in my neck the pain behind my eyes was coming from, provide me with some immediate relief, and help me with a path to long-term recovery. Biggest takeaway: posture is critical. Good posture is uncomfortable and tiring at first. You’ll get better at it and your muscles will adapt. It’s well worth the sacrifice. Wish I’d learned twenty years ago but better late than never.

Omg this was basically my experience too. I was so mad when I broke out notepad to show my friends how awesome I was and they were like dude

It’s an immediate response to cold hands. Even handling refrigerated chicken, not just frozen stuff.

My hands and feet are nearly always cold. Maui, sunny day sitting on the beach, cold feet. My hands never look quite as radical as yours, but the dermatologist says it’s Raynaud. When I have to handle frozen food or whatever it literally hurts in my chest. Kind of a lot. Do you get that too? … Weird how I sometimes forget to ask the internet about this stuff but I just googled and apparently chest pain isn’t uncommon.

I don’t remember. Long ago. I’m sure much has changed.

My issue with XMPP was the lack of synchronization between clients. If my mobile was offline while I was chatting on desktop, mobile client would never have the same chat history as desktop and my conversation history would be fragmented. When I asked about it on some developer forum, they basically just said that was out of scope for XMPP and should be implemented in client. Which sort of makes sense if the client is a web client hosted somewhere but I wanted a thin desktop client like pidgin.im

Last Epoch scratches that itch real good for me and it’s hitting release in a few days.

Oh really?

Do ssh-copy-id next please.

This will be a nice improvement for me.

My friends and I had a blast in grounded. Really good times

Solidworks is the same way.

I didn’t know there was an app! I use the website constantly.

I have a spare nvme SSD and recently took a weekend to play with various Linux desktop distributions. EndeavorOS and Pop! OS were my favorite. But I have an RTX 3080 and can’t afford to replace it with an AMD GPU. It didn’t work well enough with my games. I’m really attached to HDR which seems to be coming but is not generally available for most games yet. I feel like the writing is on the wall and Windows will not be a suitable option for me in the near future, but right now I have the least issues with Windows 11.

I use Linux all the time for hosting various services at work, but never with a GUI.

This was my experience as well. It worked great if your hands were out in front of you but if you needed to move your arms around (beat saber, any archery game, etc) it just didn’t work.

I feel personally attacked.

I started on kbin. The content I was enjoying was all from lemmy.world so when I ditched kbin I just came over here.
