Well, my new doctor, a nice vietnamese man, prescribed me two months worth of an epilepsy drug that the pharmacist put me thorugh 20 questions and lots of side eye before he gave it to me.

It's a drug they give people with epilepsy to stop convulsions with high pshychological and physical addiction risk. It's explicitly not reccomened for my condition in two research papers I've read and Pfizer was sued for hundreds of millions of dollars for illegally marketing it!.

What could possibly go wrong? :

Pretty sure half a bottle of tequila would have been a better sleep aid.

Paper 1:

"There is moderate- to high-quality evidence that anticonvulsants are ineffective for treatment of low back pain or lumbar radicular pain. There is high-quality evidence that gabapentinoids have a higher risk for adverse events."

Paper 2: (CLBP = Chronic lower back pain)

"Existing evidence on the use of gabapentinoids in CLBP is limited and demonstrates significant risk of adverse effects without any demonstrated benefit. Given the lack of efficacy, risks, and costs associated, the use of gabapentinoids for CLBP merits caution. "

Nintendo Sends Out Golden Tickets to Chosen Consumers If anyone deserves one it's GGeek.

Youtube's compression sucks. DF has uncompressed versions of their videos on their site that look much, much better, but you have to support their Patreon to download them.

Never!

I also realised that they often zoom in, but not to a massive degree. They do it subtly enough that you don't even realise you're looking at a cropped, zoomed image.

They do it without pointing it out, most of the time. Rather than just having full screen vs full screen they will have a zoomed in image, in general which perpetuates and exagerates these "flaws".

Giving you a much worse impression of how a game actually looks.

But there was a point where DF John compared it to Xbox One X version, Doom Eternal and it looked awesome.


I can't quite imagine playing that on Switch 2 at 1080p in handheld mode. If it runs on XB1 it should look similar.


Although the one X was probably running it at better settings or something.


I also had a weird dream last night where me and Dvader were invited to a Nintendo showcase. Some weird hobo presenter came out, pulled used DVDS off the shelving and handed them out as gifts. But left all the saucy DVDS on the she

We must make this a reality, how do we get into switch 2 preview events.

So today I had the great pleasure of playing the game can you beat scalpers and get a graphics card! I lost of course. Apparently very low stock was released today so almost no one got them. I'm getting a 5080, I built my PC but kept my old 2080, waiting for the time to upgrade and now it's time... but finding one will be hell. But soon I will have 4k and ray tracing! My games will looks glorious! And probably stutter and soon be outdated and all the problems that come with PC gaming.
