2023.03.26 15:07 Retired-Pie Boss difficulty
So I've been playing the beta with a friend of my on couch coop. I'm a druid and she's a Rouge. And I've hot to say, the dungeon bosses are just incredibly difficult, to the point where it feels a bit unfair.
Firstly, I'd like to point out that I love how each boss has actual mechanics, unlike D3. Charged attacks and aoe attacks and things are great, and I appreciate that they are there, but God damn they hit like a truck and it feels almost impossible to dodge all of their attacks.
The most egregious example was with werewolf boss we fought after clearing a fort dungeon. It has a basic melee swip attack that is literally impossible for me to dodge. If I use the dodge button to avoid the first attacks it IMMEDIATELY spins 180 to make a second attack which I can't dodge because the cool down hasn't finished yet. As a melee werebear build, it makes it almost impossible for me to deal damage without blowing through my potions because I just can't avoid being hit and then it spawns all those other wolves which knock me down and deal damage, and they rarely seemed to drop more health potions.
We finally beat it on our third try by pure luck, both of us were about to die in 1 more hit when it finally gave us the win. I did not feel like I mastered any mechanical, I feel like I got lucky and survived. And this isn't the only boss that made us feel this way.
Ultimately I think the biggest issue we have is the lack of dodges. So many bosses and enemies have multi-hit combo and a lot of them have insane tracking that it feels like it's impossible to not get hit. I wish we could have more dodges or just make them unlimited like in D3 I don't feel like it would trivialize the game much.
Anyway, how do you all think about it? Should we just "get good" or does anyone else feel it's just a bit off balance?

2023.03.26 15:06 hmcyo Best course of action to sue restaurant
Hello all,
I'm based in the UK and recently suffered an allergic reaction at a restaurant.
We asked the waitress if the item contained milk and she quite confidently said no. I took 2 bites and immediately knew something was up. Manager came over and when my partner explained, he was all like "no! It contains butter! Who told you it was milk free?" We pointed her out and she was called over, to which point she actually scoffed and said "you asked about MILK, it doesn't contain MILK, it's made with BUTTER"
At this point let's just say my partner and the restaurant manager gave the rude waitress a quick lesson on how butter is made...
I should have used my epi pens but stupidly, didn't, because if I did I knew my entire family (Inc 2 special needs kids) would be stranded.
After spewing up all over the toilets we left.
Mrs told me she got the allergen book from them, and the item isn't even identified as having milk in regardless.
At first the manager said he would give us the CCTV. He called later on and then said he wouldn't. Then called back and said he would. Proper shady. We haven't received anything.
They were reported to environmental health who said they would visit and let us know what happened. No calls yet.
I have never done anything like this before. All the no win no fee places advertise the same things. Can anyone recommend a solicitors or is it just a case of randomly picking one?

2023.03.26 15:05 greentea387 I want to end all mental suffering but I'm not consistent and don't know how to start
TLDR: I want to find better treatments for all mental diseases and "healthy" suffering but it's a long road and I'm not consistent and don't know how to start. How to get pressure from outside?
As an adolescent I thought much about life and my experience of the world. During this time I had two important insights: First, that it is possible to experience a joy that is so intense that it’s really extremely amazing. And second, that it is possible to experience suffering that is so intense that it’s really extremely terrible. For example, I could get really intense peaks of happiness while listening to my favorite emotional music. And I could get really intense emotional suffering when for example my parents were arguing badly, because I always wanted everybody around me to be happy. Both the good and bad feelings were extremely intense sometimes. In the moments when I experienced them, I would think “wow, that really feels much more intense than I remembered it from the last time”. I don’t know if most people experience emotions in such an intensity that I did. Though I don’t think that I had bipolar disorder because those emotional peak experiences always depended on the outer circumstances. I also had the insight that life is always up and down, after good comes bad and after bad comes good again and this always repeats again and again.
Also I was a very shy guy who always wanted to open up to others in my class, but my anxiety was just too bad and it was difficult for me to be relaxed with other people because I feared being judged.
Then, when I was about 17 years old I became interested in eastern religions and the nature of the mind. I read much about philosophy and buddhism and I also meditated. I also became interested in psychedelics and after some thorough research about their effects and risks, I took a high dose of mushrooms. This experience was the most profound and fascinating experience that I had to that point in my life. I experienced something that could only be described with words like god, ultimate reality, pure existence.
But I wanted to go further. I decided that I wanted to end all suffering and find what they call enlightenment in buddhism. I meditated daily, tried to act and think good about other people and read much about the journey to this goal. After many months I experienced a short moment of something eternal during meditation. In the following weeks these moments occurred more often and prolonged. It is hard to describe but there was a profound sense of eternity, sacredness, importance and extreme bliss. In fact this bliss/joy/ecstasy/euphoria was much more intense than anything that I had experienced before. The intensity of this joy cannot be overstated. Even to say that this bliss was 1000 times more intense than the most intense happiness peak I ever experienced before, would be an extreme understatement. And this bliss was independent from the normal repeating up-down experience of life. So after this bliss there was not any bad experience following, instead, the next bliss would always follow minutes or hours later. I experienced this state several times a day for about 3 months and it was always accessible for me. I thought I had finally found what I had been searching for my entire life, which is: eternal happiness and being safe from all suffering.
But in the next few weeks I suddenly started to experience difficulties concentrating which prevented me from entering this state again. The fear of not being able to enter this state any more and to finally lose it for the rest of my life was so severe, that it led to extreme stress and sleep problems, which of course aggravated the concentration difficulties even more. So I was in a vicious cycle. The stress and desperation were so severe that I ended up being an inpatient in a psychiatric ward for 2 months and they put me on antidepressants for that time. During that time I forgot about the importance of this meditative blissful state and my sleep and mental state slowly got better and I could finally leave the psychiatric ward and stop taking the medication.
This was 3 years ago and although I had absolutely sworn to myself to find this meditative bliss again as soon as possible, I wasn’t able to do so yet. This is because one of the main requirements for entering this state is the ability to shift your whole attention to the sensory perception, and I am not able to do that anymore since I had this severe mental breakdown.
Also, there are some other things that have changed in my mental health: The intensity of experiencing the world around me has diminished. I have no positive emotional peaks anymore and have become very apathetic. My motivation is constantly low and I feel like every day is the same and I’m stuck in my life. My cognition has also worsened, I have trouble thinking, planning and remembering. I try to change that by exercising, eating healthy and getting enough sleep for the last 2 years, but this did not help sufficiently.
My final goal: to get back to this blissful, suffering-free state, this time without losing it again. And to be safe from all mental illnesses such as depression, psychosis, anxiety. And there are two obstacles preventing me from achieving this: First, my concentration is not sufficient for shifting my whole attention to the sensory perception, which is necessary for this type of meditation. Second, existing treatments for mental illnesses are not sufficiently effective and have side effects. So what do I have to do in order to overcome these obstacles? I will have to find the underlying cause of my inability to concentrate and I will have to find 100% working and side effect free treatments for all kinds of mental disorders and mental suffering in general. I also want to end suffering that is not part of a mental disease. I mean you can be "healthy" (meaning not being diagnosed with any illness) and still have an extremely terrible and unfulfilling life. I want to change that. I imagine a world in which it is possible for everyone to experience joy without having to pay that back with the same amount of suffering. This is technically challenging but possible in principle. Every aspect of the human experience arises from neurochemical interactions in the brain. If you can exactly control the firing of every neuron or every neural population, you can create every possible experience. The problem is that I’m not consistent at solving these complex problems. As I said I have problems with cognition, which is needed to solve complex problems like these. So I should start with improving my cognition which itself is difficult because it is also a complex problem. But somehow I have to get this going and escape this situation that I’m in. Also, I quickly forget my goals and my progress on these goals. On some days I realize that I have to put the time I have into solving my problems, but the next day I find myself watching nonsensical youtube videos and the goal is gone out of my mind.
So what should I do to get consistent at these things? One idea that I had was to tell somebody to put some pressure on me so that I’m pushed to work really hard in my free time. Maybe you have some ideas for my situation? I know it's possible, I know it's super important, but I don't know what's the first step.

2023.03.26 15:00 hug-a-cat What's a "normal" amount to get yelled at by your partner? [34M/34M]
Tl dr - my partner yells at me when he's pissed off, and im not sure at what point it stops being normal and starts being an issue.
This probably sounds like a ridiculous question, sorry - I know I'm in my 30s and I shouldn't need to ask shit like this but I have very little experience of healthy relationships, romantic or otherwise, so sometimes it's hard to judge what is/isn't normal.
My partner and I are engaged and living together, it's a really great relationship overall but when we have an argument (or if he's just generally pissed off about something) he tends to yell and swear and stomp around and stuff. In general he's a pretty loud, animated person whereas I'm softly spoken and never really raise my voice, so the yelling is partly just what he's like. He's not swearing at me as such - it's more like "for fucks sake" or "why the fuck did you do that" kinda thing. We don't argue that often so it's not like it's happening all the time.
I have mental health issues due to a lot of past trauma and I'm extremely jumpy. I don't cope that well with people yelling. Typically I'll either dissociate or hide away somewhere and panic. In the moment, when someone yells at me it feels like I'm going to get hit (my current partner has never done that to be clear) and I guess I visibly brace myself which sometimes pisses him off more because he's like, why tf would you think I'm going to hurt you. Logically, I'm genuinely not concerned that he would hurt me, it's just an automatic response.
After he cools off he always feels guilty and is very apologetic and concerned but tbh I really don't find that helpful and I'd rather not deal with it which I've said. We had an argument last night and he's in that phase now, it's kinda stressing me out. To give an example of the kind of thing he typically gets pissed off about, the argument yesterday was about me pushing myself too hard physically when I've recently lost some weight (I'm in recovery from an eating disorder and I'm still underweight, it's hard for me to gain weight and the amount of exercise i did yesterday probably wasn't ideal). It came from a place of concern.
I'm definitely not saying he's not allowed to be annoyed with me or whatever. I'm just not sure what level of yelling at your partner is normal and expected, like do I just need to get better at tolerating it? Volume wise, he's loud enough to be heard by the neighbours. He does go to therapy and his tempecommunication skills is a big part of the reason for that. He's definitely made changes from how he used to be and part of me thinks this is just me struggling to deal with something that's actually completely normal.
Any advice anyone can give would be appreciated!

2023.03.26 15:00 Electrical-Fig-4093 Shared an eighth with my husband and had the most amazing time
Friday night my husband and I split an eighth of a hodge-podge of B+ and PE he’s been growing over the last few months. I’ve had a couple trips on my own here and there, and so has he, but this time we took them together by making a tea.
At his request, we had naked cuddles. Weirdly enough it wasn’t even a sexual thing, it just felt right. We laid in the dark cuddling while it started to kick in. What unfolded over the next couple hours was inexplicable. I truly struggle with emotional vulnerability due to past traumas and abuse, I also take antidepressants which I feel like shelters me from certain deep feelings. Looking into my husband’s eyes and holding his face in my hands I said something to the effect of “I’m glad it’s you.” Tears welled up in both our eyes and I openly wept. Not out of sadness, but just this pure joy, this raw vulnerability and feeling of immense trust I’ve never really felt before. I felt like my body could melt into his, like our souls were fusing together. I likened the feeling to him as a feeling of youth, innocence, first love, the first time you see each other naked and make love. The mental image in my mind was like Adam first discovering Eve in the Garden of Eden. We talked about the future and how I hoped one day when we are old we can still strip down and split an eighth and be content in the life we have created and shared. We talked about our hopes and dreams for our children (we don’t have any yet, but will be trying to conceive soon). We laughed at the stupidest things. We took some NSFW photos just for the fun of it. We got dressed and ordered hot wings and ate together in bed watching Maury (we’re suckers for trash TV). Then we fell asleep in each others arms soaking in the afterglow.
I am still blown away by the whole experience. It was so good for us as individuals and as a couple to be so vulnerable and have a good, healthy cry. We both work very stressful, mentally draining jobs, and we both have our respective mental health issues. At times our nerves tend to be frayed and we can easily lose patience with each other. So this trip felt like a much needed reset for the both of us. I told him several times that this is what married couples need to do at least once a year to ensure a healthy marriage lol. As for visuals etc. I definitely had closed eye visuals and some things in the room seemed wiggly, but the most profound feeling was the emotional release. Just wanted to share this amazing experience with you all. There are not enough words…Everyone should get to feel that pure contentment at some point in their lives. Truly mind blowing. Happy tripping ✌🏻

At his request, we had naked cuddles. Weirdly enough it wasn’t even a sexual thing, it just felt right. We laid in the dark cuddling while it started to kick in. What unfolded over the next couple hours was inexplicable. I truly struggle with emotional vulnerability due to past traumas and abuse, I also take antidepressants which I feel like shelters me from certain deep feelings. Looking into my husband’s eyes and holding his face in my hands I said something to the effect of “I’m glad it’s you.” Tears welled up in both our eyes and I openly wept. Not out of sadness, but just this pure joy, this raw vulnerability and feeling of immense trust I’ve never really felt before. I felt like my body could melt into his, like our souls were fusing together. I likened the feeling to him as a feeling of youth, innocence, first love, the first time you see each other naked and make love. The mental image in my mind was like Adam first discovering Eve in the Garden of Eden. We talked about the future and how I hoped one day when we are old we can still strip down and split an eighth and be content in the life we have created and shared. We talked about our hopes and dreams for our children (we don’t have any yet, but will be trying to conceive soon). We laughed at the stupidest things. We took some NSFW photos just for the fun of it. We got dressed and ordered hot wings and ate together in bed watching Maury (we’re suckers for trash TV). Then we fell asleep in each others arms soaking in the afterglow.
I am still blown away by the whole experience. It was so good for us as individuals and as a couple to be so vulnerable and have a good, healthy cry. We both work very stressful, mentally draining jobs, and we both have our respective mental health issues. At times our nerves tend to be frayed and we can easily lose patience with each other. So this trip felt like a much needed reset for the both of us. I told him several times that this is what married couples need to do at least once a year to ensure a healthy marriage lol. As for visuals etc. I definitely had closed eye visuals and some things in the room seemed wiggly, but the most profound feeling was the emotional release. Just wanted to share this amazing experience with you all. There are not enough words…Everyone should get to feel that pure contentment at some point in their lives. Truly mind blowing.

2023.03.26 14:57 skete420 I [20F] inadvertently said something hurtful to my long distance boyfriend [20M] and don't know how to move forward.
My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 months now and best friends for 3 years before that. Overall, I say we work really well. When we fight we're always able to communicate our feelings and work through them together. This is of course, a lot easier when we're close proximity because we can meet and hash everything out and move on from the incident. It's easier for me to get my point across and make sure that he's interpreting it right when we're face to face but over text it's a bit of a struggle. So generally, while we're long distance I try to make it a point to be on call when having a fight of any kind. However, since he has pretty strict parents it's tough to be able to get him on call all the time, especially on weekends since that's when they're home with him through the day.
That's what happened yesterday, we got into a disagreement and he was unable to call and I ended up hurting him with what I said over text. The context of the fight was me saying that sometimes my boyfriend has a bit of a superiority complex and can speak to me quite condescendingly sometimes.
I am a person who struggles with mental health issues a lot more than my boyfriend who's a very grounded person and I am doing my best to heal these issues and be a better person which he has been very very supportive of. However, sometimes when we talk my boyfriend talks about how he hates people who self-destruct or people who are addicts. Since these are both issues that I've dealt with in the past it feels like he's saying he hates me, while I do not think those aspects of me are something to love or like at all I feel like they are something that should be forgiven or accepted.
Even on the more superficial ends of things, I have a few cringy interests and so does he (and so does pretty much everyone else in the world.) When we talk about his cringy interests I never really judge him for it, because sure I don't see the appeal of these things but I'm sure that he does and that he enjoys them so I never really look down upon them. However, when it comes to my cringy interests I think he tends to look down upon them.
I simply wanted to ask him to consider things from my perspective a little more.
These were the points that I wanted to get across but he says that what it came across to him as is that I think he hates me and patronises me so he's never going to help me and give me advice on anything ever again. I really didn't mean for it come off that way, he is the first person in my life that I have felt truly truly loved by and I am so so appreciative of the fact that he's stuck by me and helped me so much as I've worked through my issues.
Now he's being cold to me and won't really speak to me properly about it and the atmosphere is too tensed to move on. I feel so bad for hurting him and I keep apologizing but it's going nowhere. How do I approach this and make him listen to me and hopefully get him to forgive me?
TLDR - I tried to ask my boyfriend to look at situations from my perspective more and didn't phrase it well enough so it came across like I was saying he hates me and now he's being cold and won't speak to me. What should I do?

It is not only an issue of utilizing a tractor to dig, freight, or spread. It is new requests like what farm truck types, what sizes, what power, and what associations you'll get around revealing positions. It is easy to get confused when probing excavators.
You’ll find several different types of excavators available, similar to mini excavators, backhoe excavators, extended-reach excavators, and indeed excavators erected to use suction rather than teeth. Excavators also have complex corridors and a surprising array of attachments available.
EXCAVATOR ATTACHMENTS
There are a lot of excavator designs, sizes, and shapes on the request, and an equal or lesser choice of excavator attachments. Excavators are limited to digging, loading, backfilling, or spreading material for canted job spots. With the right work tool attachments, you can turn your machine into a protean supporter that can perform numerous places.
Work tool attachments are what really brought excavators into the ultra-modern construction world. Where excavators were formerly limited to bulwarks, they are snow cross-industry outfits with tools that transfigure your job point performance. They are just many excavator-friendly attachments available.

Thumbs Hydraulic thumbs will allow your excavator to pick up, hold and transport awkward accouterments like jewels and branches that will not fit in a pail. You will witness better cargo control as a result, which will ameliorate your job point effectiveness and productivity.
There are different connections accessible as work apparatuses for your backhoe. The utilization you have as a top priority for your connection and the sort of tractor you are working with to figure out what instrument you will source.
EXCAVATOR USES
There are numerous excavator sizes and types available for trade and rent, and there is a plenitude of situations when you would use your machine. Demand opened the door for invention and invention, leading to exceptionally well-designed excavator types. Now there are more excavator models on the request than utmost other pieces of construction outfits.
It is useful to sort excavators by use order and also list all the specific jobs and places the machines can handle. You will find excavators in narrow specialties like forestry workshops and swash dredging as well as pile-driving and pole setting. still, the maturity of excavation uses falls into these four orders Construction and serviceability. The largest order is where you will find excavators hard at work in construction and serviceability.
Construction and mileage systems take place all time long. It might be a domestic branch or a road structure job, but you are sure to find different excavator types in the blend. obliteration and scrap. However, you know that an excavator is no way far down If you’re in the obliteration or scrapyard business. It might be a long-reach machine that’s tearing down walls or mounding persecuted buses or it might be a simple decent steer with a backhoe attachment as well as a straggler with a grapple attachment.
Chase and total. Open recesses bear big machines. You are bound to have a large capacity excavator with a big bailing pail on a chase and total point.
You might also use an old-fashioned dragline. Anyhow of type, you will want to rent the most suitable excavator for your beach, clay, and gemstone excavation work. It could be a wheeled machine as well as a conventional straggler.
Waste and recycling. tip and recycling spots have their challenges. They are places where normal excavators on buses on regular tracks struggle with
flotation and traction. Backhoe makers know this, and they have answered with imaginative undersides that let their waste and reusing earthmovers cross delicate ground with no sweat. numerous excavators transferred to the tip spots have a series of sword buses equipped with sharp and piercing harpoons.
TYPES OF EXCAVATORS
There is no one type of excavator. You will see an array of earthmoving and material-running outfits labeled “excavator." The type of excavator you need has to match how you will use it. For utmost excavator drivers, that function can change rather snappily.
There are seven separate excavator types. Some cross orders and serve binary purposes, but these different types had specific purposes when the design and engineering brigades allowed them out. Then are the general excavator types you will find serving numerous diligences.
Crawling excavators.
dawdlers are the most common excavators you will see operating across America. These are machines on tracks, and they have earned their name from an emotional capability to crawl about the harshest terrain and take traction on steep pitches. Crawling excavator sizes range from rubber-tracked mini-excavators to huge outfits moving on sword tracks. dawdlers ply lower ground pressure than machines on buses, making them the excavator of choice for numerous jobs.
Wheeled Excavators.
While dawdlers leave a light footmark and have superb traction, they are slow when mobile. switching tracks for tires on the undercarriage increases an excavator's speed. Wheeled excavators move a lot quicker than tracked machines. While they are not as stable as tracked undercarriage due to an advanced graveness center, buses give the excavator excellent mobility and better transport times around or between job spots.
Descent steers excavators.
utmost people associate descent steers with wheeled payload and compact track payload rather than real excavators. Do not be too quick to dismiss these fast and protean machines as being dig-able. numerous descent steers multi-terrain payload and tracked compact payload readily accept work tool attachments like an excavation arm. You will find digging attachments that suit your descent steer and economically transfigure it into a compact excavator that can move a lot of material in a veritably short time.
Backhoe excavators.
There is banter about whether customary excavators have a place in the excavator camp Every backhoe holds a digging arm on the contrary end of its house from the haul pail. The main difference between a backhoe and other types of excavators is that a backhoe’s excavation medium cannot fully revolve. That is a small interference when you are operating a backhoe for its designed purpose.
Long-reach excavators.
Long-reach excavators are big-classed machines used in technical situations. They have extended arm lengths with smash-and-stick measures far in excess of conventional machines. Some long-reach outfit has over 100 bases of vertical extension. They are ideal for working across delicate conduits and tricky obliteration spots where the driver can place the machine in a strategic spot and reach out to their work from there.
Dragline excavators.
Draglines work well in mining situations. Before current hydraulic excavators with 360-degree gyration arrived on the request, numerous excavation companies kept a dragline or two in their line. These dateless tools operate on a smash, pulley, and string system where the pail is dragged from a line attached back to the machine’s arm. Although conventional draglines do not fluently rotate, their huge capacity makes them a top choice for open-area earthmoving.
Suction Excavators
Toward the finish of the phenomenal scale sit suction excavators. These unusual but practical outfit pieces do work that no other excavator design can handle. They move material by shooting a high-pressure water sport into the ground and creating a vacuum that sucks loose material through a sock into a hopper. Suction excavators are common in high-viscosity civic work where they perform close-quarter mileage work with little damage threat to conterminous property.
Each excavator type has its purpose. Whether you perform regular construction, make roads, demolish structures, or mine material in a marketable capacity, there is a suitable excavator available.
CORRIDER OF AN EXCAVATOR
Although a wide range of machine types and outfit sizes are available, most hydraulic excavators operate on the same principle. They use a machine, generally diesel-powered, to drive hydraulic pumps that pressurize oil painting and move drive and dig factors. The main difference is the capacity and magnitude of the corridor.
You will find three main element groups in hydraulic excavators. One is the drive system or undercarriage. The alternate area is called the house. It contains the machine, hydraulic pumps, counterpoise, and control grouping. The third part is the digging arm or the business end of the machine.
An excavator is truly a system where each element contributes to the machine’s overall operation. Excavators are a high illustration of the total being lesser than its corridor. No piece of a hydraulic excavator is a higher priority than the other. The factors work as a digging platoon, and without an individual player, the digging game would be lost.
1. THE EXCAVATOR UNDERCARRIAGE
An Excavator's underside is its adjustment and drive unit. It contains the drive medium that allows the machine to push ahead, in reverse, and sideways. The undercarriage is a complex system on its own with numerous interconnecting pieces that cooperate to drive the excavator around its plant. You might assume that all excavators have tracks. While utmost hydraulic excavators use sword or rubber tracks in their undercarriage, wheeled excavators do live.
2. THE EXCAVATOR HOUSE
The brilliance of a true hydraulic excavator is its capability to revolve in a complete circle. Excavators differ from backhoes and their digger relatives because they can rotate 360 degrees without restriction. Excavators can dig like excavators; however, they are restricted to a 200-degree side-to-side development. An excavator’s house sits on a turntable joining the hack and machine to the undercarriage. The house also connects to the digging arm, making it the central command and control center. It is also the hustler where energy gets converted to digging force.
3. THE EXCAVATOR ARM
Without the digging arm, the machine would be an undercarriage-mounted house with only the capability to move about. Yet, add an arm and the machine goes to work. excavators' arms are shrewd creations that work as a progression of pivots. The arm element can raise and lower, open, and close, and extend and retreat. Combined, the hinged arm factors let the machine dig, bail, cargo, gamble, and place material.
It is the blend of house, arm, and underside that set a tractor to work. The reach, lift, and cargo capacity depend on a mix of the corridor. It is generally true that the larger the excavator undercarriage, arm, and house, the further performance it has within a fixed time. These marvelous machines have come a long way in design, power, and capability since the 1800s. moment, excavators offer drivers convenience and safety.

Crawling excavator sizes range from rubber-tracked mini-excavators to huge outfits moving on sword tracks. dawdlers ply lower ground pressure than machines on buses, making them the excavator of choice for numerous jobs.
Wheeled Excavators.
While dawdlers leave a light footmark and have superb traction, they are slow when mobile. switching tracks for tires on the undercarriage increases an excavator's speed. Wheeled excavators move a lot quicker than tracked machines. While they are not as stable as tracked undercarriage due to an advanced graveness center, buses give the excavator excellent mobility and better transport times around or between job spots.
Descent steers excavators.
utmost people associate descent steers with wheeled payload and compact track payload rather than real excavators. Do not be too quick to dismiss these fast and protean machines as being dig-able. numerous descent steers multi-terrain payload and tracked compact payload readily accept work tool attachments like an excavation arm. You will find digging attachments that suit your descent steer and economically transfigure it into a compact excavator that can move a lot of material in a veritably short time.
Backhoe excavators.
There is banter about whether customary excavators have a place in the excavator camp Every backhoe holds a digging arm on the contrary end of its house from the haul pail. The main difference between a backhoe and other types of excavators is that a backhoe’s excavation medium cannot fully revolve. That is a small interference when you are operating a backhoe for its designed purpose.
Long-reach excavators.
Long-reach excavators are big-classed machines used in technical situations. They have extended arm lengths with smash-and-stick measures far in excess of conventional machines. Some long-reach outfit has over 100 bases of vertical extension. They are ideal for working across delicate conduits and tricky obliteration spots where the driver can place the machine in a strategic spot and reach out to their work from there.
Dragline excavators.
Draglines work well in mining situations. Before current hydraulic excavators with 360-degree gyration arrived on the request, numerous excavation companies kept a dragline or two in their line. These dateless tools operate on a smash, pulley, and string system where the pail is dragged from a line attached back to the machine’s arm. Although conventional draglines do not fluently rotate, their huge capacity makes them a top choice for open-area earthmoving.
Suction Excavators
Toward the finish of the phenomenal scale sit suction excavators. These unusual but practical outfit pieces do work that no other excavator design can handle. They move material by shooting a high-pressure water sport into the ground and creating a vacuum that sucks loose material through a sock into a hopper. Suction excavators are common in high-viscosity civic work where they perform close-quarter mileage work with little damage threat to conterminous property.
Each excavator type has its purpose. Whether you perform regular construction, make roads, demolish structures, or mine material in a marketable capacity, there is a suitable excavator available.
CORRIDER OF AN EXCAVATOR
Although a wide range of machine types and outfit sizes are available, most hydraulic excavators operate on the same principle. They use a machine, generally diesel-powered, to drive hydraulic pumps that pressurize oil painting and move drive and dig factors. The main difference is the capacity and magnitude of the corridor.
You will find three main element groups in hydraulic excavators. One is the drive system or undercarriage. The alternate area is called the house. It contains the machine, hydraulic pumps, counterpoise, and control grouping. The third part is the digging arm or the business end of the machine.
An excavator is truly a system where each element contributes to the machine’s overall operation. Excavators are a high illustration of the total being lesser than its corridor. No piece of a hydraulic excavator is a higher priority than the other. The factors work as a digging platoon, and without an individual player, the digging game would be lost.
1. THE EXCAVATOR UNDERCARRIAGE
An Excavator's underside is its adjustment and drive unit. It contains the drive medium that allows the machine to push ahead, in reverse, and sideways. The undercarriage is a complex system on its own with numerous interconnecting pieces that cooperate to drive the excavator around its plant. You might assume that all excavators have tracks. While utmost hydraulic excavators use sword or rubber tracks in their undercarriage, wheeled excavators do live.
2. THE EXCAVATOR HOUSE
The brilliance of a true hydraulic excavator is its capability to revolve in a complete circle. Excavators differ from backhoes and their digger relatives because they can rotate 360 degrees without restriction. Excavators can dig like excavators; however, they are restricted to a 200-degree side-to-side development. An excavator’s house sits on a turntable joining the hack and machine to the undercarriage. The house also connects to the digging arm, making it the central command and control center. It is also the hustler where energy gets converted to digging force.
3. THE EXCAVATOR ARM
Without the digging arm, the machine would be an undercarriage-mounted house with only the capability to move about. Yet, add an arm and the machine goes to work. excavators' arms are shrewd creations that work as a progression of pivots. The arm element can raise and lower, open, and close, and extend and retreat. Combined, the hinged arm factors let the machine dig, bail, cargo, gamble, and place material.
It is the blend of house, arm, and underside that set a tractor to work. The reach, lift, and cargo capacity depend on a mix of the corridor. It is generally true that the larger the excavator undercarriage, arm, and house, the further performance it has within a fixed time. These marvelous machines have come a long way in design, power, and capability since the 1800s. moment, excavators offer drivers convenience and safety.

2023.03.26 14:49 Anonymous34023 It’s been years and i’m still stressed over it…It is driving me nuts and i’m crying myself to sleep every night
It has been almost 9 years but I still can’t stop worrying over it. Context: I took an inappropriate video when i was younger which if it got leaked could be classified as CP. After taking it i realised what i had done was wrong and immediately deleted and remove from recycling bin in the span of one minute. At that time i didn’t use any back up services such as google photos so it wasn’t backed up. Even if i did use i deleted before it could Auto-back up. However I am still scared that it may still be leaked. I am sick and tired of living in fear and at this point it has taken a toll on my mental health. I just cannot forgive myself for ever making such a stupid mistake and writing here is my last straw.
Anyone has got any advice on how to move on?
edit: I fear that my phone could have had a malware of some sort and steal that video in the one minute it was in my phone. I’ve been trying to remember if my phone had any issues and i remember i used to use youtube to mp3 converters and i would see occasional “you got virus” pop ups on some websites. I worry i may have accidentally clicked on it and downloaded some malicious software or the yt2mp3 converter gave my phone some malware 😩

2023.03.26 14:48 hug-a-cat What's a "normal" amount to get yelled at by your partner? [34M/34M]
Tl dr - my partner yells at me when he's pissed off, and im not sure at what point it stops being normal and starts being an issue.
This probably sounds like a ridiculous question, sorry - I know I'm in my 30s and I shouldn't need to ask shit like this but I have very little experience of healthy relationships, romantic or otherwise, so sometimes it's hard to judge what is/isn't normal.
My partner and I are engaged and living together, it's a really great relationship overall but when we have an argument (or if he's just generally pissed off about something) he tends to yell and swear and stomp around and stuff. In general he's a pretty loud, animated person whereas I'm softly spoken and never really raise my voice, so the yelling is partly just what he's like. He's not swearing at me as such - it's more like "for fucks sake" or "why the fuck did you do that" kinda thing. We don't argue that often so it's not like it's happening all the time.
I have mental health issues due to a lot of past trauma and I'm extremely jumpy. I don't cope that well with people yelling. Typically I'll either dissociate or hide away somewhere and panic. In the moment, when someone yells at me it feels like I'm going to get hit (my current partner has never done that to be clear) and I guess I visibly brace myself which sometimes pisses him off more because he's like, why tf would you think I'm going to hurt you. Logically, I'm genuinely not concerned that he would hurt me, it's just an automatic response.
After he cools off he always feels guilty and is very apologetic and concerned but tbh I really don't find that helpful and I'd rather not deal with it which I've said. We had an argument last night and he's in that phase now, it's kinda stressing me out. To give an example of the kind of thing he typically gets pissed off about, the argument yesterday was about me pushing myself too hard physically when I've recently lost some weight (I'm in recovery from an eating disorder and I'm still underweight, it's hard for me to gain weight and the amount of exercise i did yesterday probably wasn't ideal). It came from a place of concern.
I'm definitely not saying he's not allowed to be annoyed with me or whatever. I'm just not sure what level of yelling at your partner is normal and expected, like do I just need to get better at tolerating it? Volume wise, he's loud enough to be heard by the neighbours. He does go to therapy and his tempecommunication skills is a big part of the reason for that. He's definitely made changes from how he used to be and part of me thinks this is just me struggling to deal with something that's actually completely normal.
Any advice anyone can give would be appreciated!

2023.03.26 14:46 Notamugokai The myth of perfect self-knowledge: how to improve our understanding of ourselves.
Are you the person who knows you the best? Maybe not.
A person may not be the best judge of their own thoughts, feelings, skills, conditions or behaviors.
I gathered a few examples that tend to prove this point.
I'd like to know if you have other cases and then if the solution is always the help from other people.
Examples by category:
It is not uncommon for family members, friends, or co-workers to be the first to notice the signs of depression in a someone close to them.
Individuals with anxiety disorders may not realize how their thoughts and behaviors are being affected by anxiety, and individuals with personality disorders may not recognize how their patterns of thinking and behavior are causing difficulties in their relationships and daily life.
A person's physical health can also impact their ability to accurately assess their own thoughts and behaviors. For example, chronic pain or illness can affect mood and cognitive function, making it more difficult to accurately assess one's own mental state.
Common cognitive biases include confirmation bias, where we seek out information that confirms our existing beliefs, and availability bias, where we overestimate the likelihood of events based on how easily we can recall examples of them.
Skill level: A person may overestimate or underestimate their own skill level in a particular task or activity. This can lead to unrealistic expectations or an unwillingness to seek help or improve.
Our dear elder might not realize they are no longer fit at 80yo to use a chainsaw on top of a ladder.
Emotional state: Strong emotions can cloud our judgment and impact our ability to accurately assess our own emotional state. For example, a person may not realize they are feeling anxious or angry until they begin to experience physical symptoms.
Motivations: We may not always be aware of our own motivations or the factors that drive our behavior. Example: A person who doesn't recognize that they are driven by a need for recognition or validation from others. They may make decisions based on what they think will impress others rather than what is truly important to them. In this case, it may be helpful for the person to reflect on their values and motivations and seek feedback from others to gain a more accurate understanding of themselves.
Communication: a person who doesn't realize that their tone of voice or body language is sending unintended messages to others. For example, they may think they are being assertive when in reality they are coming across as aggressive or dismissive. In this case, it may be helpful for the person to seek feedback from others and work on developing better communication skills.
We may not always be the best judge of our own thoughts, feelings, or behaviors.
While self-awareness is important, seeking feedback and support from others can be helpful in gaining a more accurate understanding of ourselves and our experiences.

Mental & Physical health
People who are experiencing depression may not recognize or acknowledge their symptoms at first. Depression is a complex condition that affects a person's mood, thoughts, and behaviors, and it can be difficult to identify its onset or severity, especially when the person affected is in denial or experiencing a sense of hopelessness.It is not uncommon for family members, friends, or co-workers to be the first to notice the signs of depression in a someone close to them.
Individuals with anxiety disorders may not realize how their thoughts and behaviors are being affected by anxiety, and individuals with personality disorders may not recognize how their patterns of thinking and behavior are causing difficulties in their relationships and daily life.
A person's physical health can also impact their ability to accurately assess their own thoughts and behaviors. For example, chronic pain or illness can affect mood and cognitive function, making it more difficult to accurately assess one's own mental state.
Denials
Addiction: People with addiction may struggle to recognize the severity of their problem and may deny or minimize the negative consequences of their substance use.Blind spots, bias, other inherent brain flaws
Everyone has biases, but people may not always be aware of their own biases or how they may be affecting their perceptions and judgments. It can be helpful to have others provide feedback or challenge our assumptions to help us recognize our biases and work to overcome them.Common cognitive biases include confirmation bias, where we seek out information that confirms our existing beliefs, and availability bias, where we overestimate the likelihood of events based on how easily we can recall examples of them.
Skill level: A person may overestimate or underestimate their own skill level in a particular task or activity. This can lead to unrealistic expectations or an unwillingness to seek help or improve.

2023.03.26 14:45 Informal_Nature5 I need your opinion because I'm kinda losing it... Is this labyrinthitis/vestibular neuritis
Your opinion after a worse ENT experience
Male, 29, 75.4kg, 178cm tall.
Dear readers,
Would like to have your opinions. Last week I had an unpleasant experience with an ENT doctor I was assigned to. Online I already read bad reviews, but the GP currently had no other way because the complaints are not "urgent". Just have a background in an anxiety disorder (unfortunately due to a medical blooper). Below my pattern of symptoms with dates. My GP suspects labyrinthitis and vestibular neuritis and from the ENT I have heard nothing, but no word. Not even a hello was possible. Also, the man would not listen or read to my kept diary. He did complain that he finds it annoying that people always come in thinking they have Meniere's when it is a rare disease. Now I have been referred for an audio test, hyperventilation testing and a balance test. Why? Really have no idea. I have unfortunately received 0 explanation and hope that possibly someone can give me something of a direction as to what happened (now virtually symptom free) or why I may still be getting these tests. Currently I am quite sad about the whole situation after all, as my wedding is in 2 months. My pattern of complaints:
The start
Jan 26/27 Sickness (nausea, fatigue, abdominal pain, tightness in the chest etc,) Jan 30 A very brief spinning dizziness. Lasted less than a minute when I turned over in bed. Thought BPPD then, and so did an Epley in bed. The week after I was not completely fit and kept feeling the dizziness from time to time for example with intense exercise, darkness, watching screens or moving objects, also hearing was dull. Didn't think anything crazy of it and just kept on doing everything. Afterward the symptoms looked like a milder or emerging version of the symptoms after the first attack.
On Feb. 9 I had a severe vertigo attack. I had to rush to a friend's house on my break. On the way there I started wobbling more and more and at his house I felt worse and worse. Then I quickly walked home and at home the whole room started spinning. As if I had turned myself up on a swing as a child and then lifted my feet off the floor. I stumbled to the bathroom because I was getting more and more nauseous until I threw up. At first I stayed standing with myself wedged between the two walls, but later I thought it would be smarter to sit down. I emailed my friend that she needed to come quickly and I wanted to see the doctor. After the attack, I was very dizzy and very shocked by the incident. I had started consulting Google because the doctor didn't have time until very late due to the rush. That's where I first read about meniere's and got very worried (very stupid to Google too with an anxiety problem). During the phone consultation, the doctor mentioned that it was probably an inflammation of my inner ear, labyrinthitis.
The weeks after the attack I really had to walk with my friend on the arm for a while in the beginning because of the dizziness and instability. Like the weeks before the attack, I heard everything dull with the left for a while, then tinitus. I also sometimes felt like something of a little fluid was leaking out. In fact, when I walked outside the left felt wet when wind came in. Mental I was still very confused and had little concentration and had a twitching ear muscle (or something?) for a few days. As the days went by I gained a little more confidence and walked larger and larger distances and picked up my work from full again. I also went back to full exercise, calisthenics and started drinking booze. With the wedding planner, things turned very briefly again like the all first incident. I stayed calm and knew that crowded, dark spaces could trigger symptoms in the weeks following the attack.
The symptoms did persist so I sent the doctor to see if it was wise to do everything like this and if there were any physio exercises to create faster stability and speed up the plasticity against the dizziness. However, I was also advised if it persisted to stop by the practice.
On Feb. 27, I went back to work hard in the evening. Worked out for 2 hours after a full day at work and made late with booze the weekend before (stupid). Did a lot of hanging upside down during the workout. Through stretching and handstand push-ups. In the car back my left side started getting all denser again and once home the dizziness started getting worse. At one point I had to go to the bathroom again from nausea. It wasn't spinning like the swing metaphor, but more like being drunk or something. With movement of my head I became nauseous. This moment lasted about 1 to 1.5 hours then I was back in the shower.
The following days I was quite upset. It did not feel like I had to "rehabilitate" as much as after the turn attack. I told my friend again that I felt like some fluid was leaking out again. I remained slightly dizzy, which I was more affected by especially in the evening. Especially mentally I was/am going through a lot of uncertainty and anxiety. I always said my head is my biggest enemy and now it felt like I had lost a battle. I stopped working again and with sports I focus on walking and cardio. Not on calisthenics. The stress and anxiety were very high. But at this moment I am trying to focus on rest.
March 4
By writing this journal, I actually found more peace because everything reads like the stories of labyrinthitis. Not that I took it to articles, but wrote it based on my (whatsapp) conversations with my surroundings and work. Also, my ear still continued to leak slightly after visiting the doctor. Dizziness subsided and now notice it mainly while getting up and later in the evening. It also seems to stick out more in crowded environments. Sometimes I thought I was going crazy that it felt like my ear was leaking. So 1 time I had my girlfriend check it to see if it was wet. This she was able to confirm (yeah, I'm sorry for her). Besides leaking, my girlfriend mentioned once that my ear was all red and warm. That it almost felt heat coming out of it. The other side was just normal and not coming from outside or anything like that.
March 6
Today the dizziness subsided more. Still briefly felt some pressure and seemed to have some fluid coming out again.
March 7
Today the morning starts a little heavier and feels a little full. 10:23 and it feels normal again. Hour later fulllig again and between noon it seemed to leak slightly (like a trickle was leaking or something) then the pressure decreased. 17:00 Pressure is completely gone again. Ear continues to feel a little wet.
March 14
This morning seemed to have another little hot flash. Was lightheaded and dizzy. Almost looked like a much milder version of the 2nd "attack". Also, this was far from similar to the 1st time. Not vomiting or nauseous and had just dressed myself a went downstairs. Also grabbed tea, but then thought it would be better to just lie quietly upstairs. While typing it has already subsided a lot. Slept very badly last night. Couldn't fall asleep and woke up a few times. Yesterday in the early evening I had some more symptoms, but that also subsided. Had no noticeable hearing loss either way. Tinnitus is still present. Sometimes louder than at other times, but not yet disturbing sleep or anything. Rest of the day went just fine again.
March 15
Currently, the dizziness seems to be gone and only something of small pressure can be felt in my head. Tinitus also seems to be a lot less. I do notice a positive line from the first vertigo attack.
March 16
I have a hard time letting go. So I thought I will do a home test to make something more tangible. After all, I understood that a hearing test can show a lot of diseases. So I just did a frequency test at home. You have 2 outcomes in that. Lack in low/mid freqs = pretty much Meniere's. In high freqs, problems in the cochlea, most likely lab. Low I heard everything fine and but at the very higher frequencies (+14000hz) the sound slid towards my right ear. (I got this info from ENT reports)
March 17
Tinnitus remains very mild. The pressure is practically gone now.
As of today
No more tinnitus, only with chewing very slightly (is this even possible?). Mentally I feel part of the world again. Hearing again as I am used to and had no dizziness or instability for more than a week. The anxiety and stress remain high for me only because I have received 0 info or direction from ENT.
Occasionally I still feel something of warmth in my ear. Sometimes it stings a little or itches deep inside it seems.... Like it feels moist, but not in my ear canal, but deeper or something?
Sorry for my long post. Thank you all in advance. Cheers
\Edit note:\** Perhaps good to mention. It all started in a pretty stressful period. My car suddenly broke down. While I just started a big project at work that I have to lead. Wedding planning. Major leakage with our new home. The kitchen equipment stopped working as well. Father suddenly with PTSD. So yeah... A little stress
Furthermore, I have no background at all in allergies, migraines, or other chronic diseases.

Not that I took it to articles, but wrote it based on my (whatsapp) conversations with my surroundings and work. Also, my ear still continued to leak slightly after visiting the doctor. Dizziness subsided and now notice it mainly while getting up and later in the evening. It also seems to stick out more in crowded environments. Sometimes I thought I was going crazy that it felt like my ear was leaking. So 1 time I had my girlfriend check it to see if it was wet. This she was able to confirm (yeah, I'm sorry for her). Besides leaking, my girlfriend mentioned once that my ear was all red and warm. That it almost felt heat coming out of it. The other side was just normal and not coming from outside or anything like that.
March 6
Today the dizziness subsided more. Still briefly felt some pressure and seemed to have some fluid coming out again.
March 7
Today the morning starts a little heavier and feels a little full. 10:23 and it feels normal again. Hour later fulllig again and between noon it seemed to leak slightly (like a trickle was leaking or something) then the pressure decreased. 17:00 Pressure is completely gone again. Ear continues to feel a little wet.
March 14
This morning seemed to have another little hot flash. Was lightheaded and dizzy. Almost looked like a much milder version of the 2nd "attack". Also, this was far from similar to the 1st time. Not vomiting or nauseous and had just dressed myself a went downstairs. Also grabbed tea, but then thought it would be better to just lie quietly upstairs. While typing it has already subsided a lot. Slept very badly last night. Couldn't fall asleep and woke up a few times. Yesterday in the early evening I had some more symptoms, but that also subsided. Had no noticeable hearing loss either way. Tinnitus is still present. Sometimes louder than at other times, but not yet disturbing sleep or anything. Rest of the day went just fine again.
March 15
Currently, the dizziness seems to be gone and only something of small pressure can be felt in my head. Tinitus also seems to be a lot less. I do notice a positive line from the first vertigo attack.
March 16
I have a hard time letting go. So I thought I will do a home test to make something more tangible. After all, I understood that a hearing test can show a lot of diseases. So I just did a frequency test at home. You have 2 outcomes in that. Lack in low/mid freqs = pretty much Meniere's. In high freqs, problems in the cochlea, most likely lab. Low I heard everything fine and but at the very higher frequencies (+14000hz) the sound slid towards my right ear. (I got this info from ENT reports)
March 17
Tinnitus remains very mild. The pressure is practically gone now.
As of today
No more tinnitus, only with chewing very slightly (is this even possible?). Mentally I feel part of the world again. Hearing again as I am used to and had no dizziness or instability for more than a week. The anxiety and stress remain high for me only because I have received 0 info or direction from ENT.
Occasionally I still feel something of warmth in my ear. Sometimes it stings a little or itches deep inside it seems.... Like it feels moist, but not in my ear canal, but deeper or something?
Sorry for my long post. Thank you all in advance. Cheers
\Edit note:\** Perhaps good to mention. It all started in a pretty stressful period. My car suddenly broke down. While I just started a big project at work that I have to lead. Wedding planning. Major leakage with our new home. The kitchen equipment stopped working as well. Father suddenly with PTSD. So yeah... A little stress
Furthermore, I have no background at all in allergies, migraines, or other chronic diseases.
2023.03.26 14:45 Informal_Nature5 I need your opinion because I'm kinda losing it... Is this labyrinthitis/vestibular neuritis
Your opinion after a worse ENT experience
Male, 29, 75.4kg, 178cm tall.
Dear readers,
Would like to have your opinions. Last week I had an unpleasant experience with an ENT doctor I was assigned to. Online I already read bad reviews, but the GP currently had no other way because the complaints are not "urgent". Just have a background in an anxiety disorder (unfortunately due to a medical blooper). Below my pattern of symptoms with dates. My GP suspects labyrinthitis and vestibular neuritis and from the ENT I have heard nothing, but no word. Not even a hello was possible. Also, the man would not listen or read to my kept diary. He did complain that he finds it annoying that people always come in thinking they have Meniere's when it is a rare disease. Now I have been referred for an audio test, hyperventilation testing and a balance test. Why? Really have no idea. I have unfortunately received 0 explanation and hope that possibly someone can give me something of a direction as to what happened (now virtually symptom free) or why I may still be getting these tests. Currently I am quite sad about the whole situation after all, as my wedding is in 2 months. My pattern of complaints:
The start
Jan 26/27 Sickness (nausea, fatigue, abdominal pain, tightness in the chest etc,) Jan 30 A very brief spinning dizziness. Lasted less than a minute when I turned over in bed. Thought BPPD then, and so did an Epley in bed. The week after I was not completely fit and kept feeling the dizziness from time to time for example with intense exercise, darkness, watching screens or moving objects, also hearing was dull. Didn't think anything crazy of it and just kept on doing everything. Afterward the symptoms looked like a milder or emerging version of the symptoms after the first attack.
On Feb. 9 I had a severe vertigo attack. I had to rush to a friend's house on my break. On the way there I started wobbling more and more and at his house I felt worse and worse. Then I quickly walked home and at home the whole room started spinning. As if I had turned myself up on a swing as a child and then lifted my feet off the floor. I stumbled to the bathroom because I was getting more and more nauseous until I threw up. At first I stayed standing with myself wedged between the two walls, but later I thought it would be smarter to sit down. I emailed my friend that she needed to come quickly and I wanted to see the doctor. After the attack, I was very dizzy and very shocked by the incident. I had started consulting Google because the doctor didn't have time until very late due to the rush. That's where I first read about meniere's and got very worried (very stupid to Google too with an anxiety problem). During the phone consultation, the doctor mentioned that it was probably an inflammation of my inner ear, labyrinthitis.
The weeks after the attack I really had to walk with my friend on the arm for a while in the beginning because of the dizziness and instability. Like the weeks before the attack, I heard everything dull with the left for a while, then tinitus. I also sometimes felt like something of a little fluid was leaking out. In fact, when I walked outside the left felt wet when wind came in. Mental I was still very confused and had little concentration and had a twitching ear muscle (or something?) for a few days. As the days went by I gained a little more confidence and walked larger and larger distances and picked up my work from full again. I also went back to full exercise, calisthenics and started drinking booze. With the wedding planner, things turned very briefly again like the all first incident. I stayed calm and knew that crowded, dark spaces could trigger symptoms in the weeks following the attack.
The symptoms did persist so I sent the doctor to see if it was wise to do everything like this and if there were any physio exercises to create faster stability and speed up the plasticity against the dizziness. However, I was also advised if it persisted to stop by the practice.
On Feb. 27, I went back to work hard in the evening. Worked out for 2 hours after a full day at work and made late with booze the weekend before (stupid). Did a lot of hanging upside down during the workout. Through stretching and handstand push-ups. In the car back my left side started getting all denser again and once home the dizziness started getting worse. At one point I had to go to the bathroom again from nausea. It wasn't spinning like the swing metaphor, but more like being drunk or something. With movement of my head I became nauseous. This moment lasted about 1 to 1.5 hours then I was back in the shower.
The following days I was quite upset. It did not feel like I had to "rehabilitate" as much as after the turn attack. I told my friend again that I felt like some fluid was leaking out again. I remained slightly dizzy, which I was more affected by especially in the evening. Especially mentally I was/am going through a lot of uncertainty and anxiety. I always said my head is my biggest enemy and now it felt like I had lost a battle. I stopped working again and with sports I focus on walking and cardio. Not on calisthenics. The stress and anxiety were very high. But at this moment I am trying to focus on rest.

2023.03.26 14:42 CallOfKyle Night Shift Nursing Home Story
This happened about 6 years ago during my first year as a CNA. Names obviously changed for privacy. I've recently gone back to school for writing and thought it'd be fun to convert some journal entries into stories. Primarily some of my favorites/creepiest. Hope you enjoy and I'd love to hear some feedback to improve my writing!
"Aug-26-2017
I was always pretty comfortable working at night. Staying up late playing video games was all I did on my days off anyway. I didn't think much of how different it would be somewhere else.
I had picked up at the job as CNA at a nursing home. I had done this kind of work before but in this case the home I worked at needed night shift aides. I was pretty familiar with how easy going the night shift usually is. A few patients will hit their call lights every now and then. And the patients who couldn't move I turned and changed every couple hours. The hardest part of the job was staying awake. If you've never worked in a nursing home, don't. The companies that run these places always gut the staffing ratios. The night shift got by okay because most of the patients were asleep, it did get overwhelming at times. There were two long hallways throughout the building. Housing about 60 patients or residents. The residents were there to stay long term. They had problems with memory, were on hospice, brain injuries, or whatever else. The dementia residents were my favorite. At least once a week I would get a fun story out of them. Anyways, on the night shift we had 3 CNA's and 2 Nurses. About 20 patient's a piece for the aides. The nurses were always elbow deep in charting and handing out medications. That left the aides to work amongst themselves. On the residents wing of the building, called long term, there was one nurses station. On the rehab side, which was a bit bigger, there was a station as well. I always got put on the long term wing of the building. Being a larger guy made moving and turning residents around in their beds a lot easier. The job wasn't half bad and always felt pretty rewarding. There wasn't much to complain about.
It was a hot August night that I came in for my shift. I knew I was going to be assigned to long term and headed down the hall. I met with the night nurse, Holly, at the nurses station. There, the two swing shift aides were eagerly waiting to give me their report and go on their ways. I won't bother with their names, it's not important. They had told me the usual rundown of the residents and I had been familiar with them for almost 6 months now. However, they had told me that David in 312 had been acting weird. They said he didn't really eat his dinner and he refused to be put in bed. David was this sweet, old, mostly blind man in his 90's. He had dementia, which made a lot of what he said hard to believe. They said that David doesn't like sharing his room and that's why he won't go to sleep. They had explained to David that he did in fact have a private room but he insisted and refused to go to bed. The aides told me that night shift has just been waiting for David to fall asleep in his wheelchair and then taking him to bed then. I figured that would be my case that night.
I parked David next to Holly at the nurse's station and started my first round. I usually worked down the left half of the hallway and back up the right. The hallway is quite long with a big emergency fire door at the end. An alarm would sound if anyone were to open it. I had worked my way down to the end of the hall. David's room was at the very end. Room 312, with a terrible construction paper name plate taped to the door. There was some clothes on the ground in David's room that I'd picked up. I made his bed in the event he was asleep when I finished my first round. I noticed the bathroom was open and the light was on. I checked and nothing was in there so I closed it. All the bathrooms in this hall were shared between two adjacent rooms. I know David was incontinent and wouldn't have used the bathroom. I figured it was either the neighboring room or one of the aides washed their hands in there. I carried on and finished my round.
By the time I had finished my first round it was already 12:30 at night. I sat at the nurse's station next to David and Holly to start charting what I had just done. David was telling Holly all about his job as a photographer for the newspaper. He said he was getting photos for a story on the Black Panther Party in Oakland. I thought that was really incredible. Both that he thought it was the 60s and that he had actually photographed the events down there. You really got a lot of neat stories from the old people we kept down here.
At about 02:30 David finally fell asleep in his chair. I wheeled him down to his room and started to change his brief. I went to close the blinds when I felt a warm breeze under my shirt. David's window had been slid open a crack. I hadn't noticed it earlier, but I didn't really go near the window. I closed it up and finished putting David into bed. He was fast asleep when I was pulling his blankets over him. I headed back down to the nurses station and had a pretty calm second half of my shift.
The next night I came back to work. Same place, same time. The evening aides gave me their report, told me again about David not wanting to go to his room. I figured the night was going to be the same as last. I parked David next to Holly and started working. I was getting sheets out of the linen closet when I heard a toilet flush towards the end of the hall. I headed down towards the sound until I reached the end of the hallway. The faint sound of game shows on Room 311's TV was all I could hear. I looked into David's dark room, the bathroom light was on. I stepped over toward the handle and quickly flung the door open. There was nothing in there. Then I realized that it smelled. Someone had used the toilet. I walked through the joining room door. The resident's name was Patrick. He was an old war vet that had a stroke. His left side was weakened and he needed a lot of help to get around. I asked Patrick if he'd gotten himself up to the bathroom. He said no. I said okay and started walking back. He then told me that he was tired of the neighbor forgetting to unlock the bathroom door on his side. I froze and my heart sank as he told me that. I didn't want to freak Patrick out so I carried on with my round and got back to Holly. I told her what Patrick had said and that I heard the toilet flush down there. She decided to call the cops and have them search the backyard of the building. One of the officers said that the screen was missing from room 312, but that was it. I told the officer that that was the room I heard someone using the bathroom in. He said he'd look around again but there's nothing out there. They still found nothing and suggested we put a stick in the window to block it from opening but that's all that came of it that night.
The next night I had a sense of dread coming into work. The evening aides talked to me about how creepy it was and how they're afraid to go to David's room now. I did my best to ignore it but I was terrified to put David to bed that night. I was making my rounds again when I heard some shuffling down the hall. The hallway seemed to get longer and longer as I stared down toward room 312. A lump in my throat formed as I stood frozen. I was jump scared by my coworker Mindy. She was the aide for the center wing. She asked me about what happened and I told her. I also told her that I had just heard something from that room. She invited herself to investigate with me. We walked slowly towards the room. We approached the doorway and I reached for the light switch. I flicked the light on and the room seemed normal. No bathroom light on. Nothing. I asked Mindy to help me make the bed and we started. I kicked something on the ground and realized it was the stick that held the window shut. I looked up at Mindy and held up the stick. Her face turned pale white as she looked at it and me. She let out a scream and pointed at the window. A set of eyes over a dark silhouette stood on the outside of the window. It was a crazy looking guy. His hot breath was making fog on the window as he stared at us. Mindy had run out of the room already and I was left staring at him. I stood frozen as he leaned toward the window. "Thanks for making my bed again." he said with a smile that made my heart drop. Grabbed the window and tried sliding it open. I quickly put my hands on top to hold it shut. He started yelling at me and banging on the window with his hand. Telling me all of his things were in here and cursing at me. Holly and Mindy had come back into the room screaming. The man picked up a rock and started breaking in the window. I held up the stick ready to beat the man. Holly and Mindy pulled me back from the window as the man climbed through the broken glass. I then could see Mindy was on the phone with the police. The man's hands were all cut up from the glass. We eventually managed to fend the guy off and he climbed back out of the window and ran. The cops caught him later and said he was pretty deranged. They had me help them go through David's cabinet, they said the man insisted his things were in the room and that he lived there. Going through David's closet I slowly came to realize that a lot of this stuff wasn't his. Two bags of clothes and a dirty backpack were stuffed in the bottom of the closet. It made me realize that this guy had been living in David's room for at least a little while. David wasn't able to tell us what was going on. He really did think he just had a new roommate. We moved David closer to a room closer to the nurse's station while his window was being repaired. I never heard anything else about the guy that broke in. I figured he was admitted to a mental hospital somewhere. Hopefully he got the help he needed.
All this wasn't enough to make me quit the night shift. I do take noises I hear a lot more seriously now. I started working at the hospital a couple months later and security is a lot tighter there. Dark hallways still make me uneasy to this day and I always find myself checking for open windows."

There, the two swing shift aides were eagerly waiting to give me their report and go on their ways. I won't bother with their names, it's not important. They had told me the usual rundown of the residents and I had been familiar with them for almost 6 months now. However, they had told me that David in 312 had been acting weird. They said he didn't really eat his dinner and he refused to be put in bed. David was this sweet, old, mostly blind man in his 90's. He had dementia, which made a lot of what he said hard to believe. They said that David doesn't like sharing his room and that's why he won't go to sleep. They had explained to David that he did in fact have a private room but he insisted and refused to go to bed. The aides told me that night shift has just been waiting for David to fall asleep in his wheelchair and then taking him to bed then. I figured that would be my case that night.
I parked David next to Holly at the nurse's station and started my first round. I usually worked down the left half of the hallway and back up the right. The hallway is quite long with a big emergency fire door at the end. An alarm would sound if anyone were to open it. I had worked my way down to the end of the hall. David's room was at the very end. Room 312, with a terrible construction paper name plate taped to the door. There was some clothes on the ground in David's room that I'd picked up. I made his bed in the event he was asleep when I finished my first round. I noticed the bathroom was open and the light was on. I checked and nothing was in there so I closed it. All the bathrooms in this hall were shared between two adjacent rooms. I know David was incontinent and wouldn't have used the bathroom. I figured it was either the neighboring room or one of the aides washed their hands in there. I carried on and finished my round.
By the time I had finished my first round it was already 12:30 at night. I sat at the nurse's station next to David and Holly to start charting what I had just done. David was telling Holly all about his job as a photographer for the newspaper. He said he was getting photos for a story on the Black Panther Party in Oakland. I thought that was really incredible. Both that he thought it was the 60s and that he had actually photographed the events down there. You really got a lot of neat stories from the old people we kept down here.
At about 02:30 David finally fell asleep in his chair. I wheeled him down to his room and started to change his brief. I went to close the blinds when I felt a warm breeze under my shirt. David's window had been slid open a crack. I hadn't noticed it earlier, but I didn't really go near the window. I closed it up and finished putting David into bed. He was fast asleep when I was pulling his blankets over him. I headed back down to the nurses station and had a pretty calm second half of my shift.
The next night I came back to work. Same place, same time. The evening aides gave me their report, told me again about David not wanting to go to his room. I figured the night was going to be the same as last. I parked David next to Holly and started working. I was getting sheets out of the linen closet when I heard a toilet flush towards the end of the hall. I headed down towards the sound until I reached the end of the hallway. The faint sound of game shows on Room 311's TV was all I could hear. I looked into David's dark room, the bathroom light was on. I stepped over toward the handle and quickly flung the door open. There was nothing in there. Then I realized that it smelled. Someone had used the toilet. I walked through the joining room door. The resident's name was Patrick. He was an old war vet that had a stroke. His left side was weakened and he needed a lot of help to get around. I asked Patrick if he'd gotten himself up to the bathroom. He said no. I said okay and started walking back. He then told me that he was tired of the neighbor forgetting to unlock the bathroom door on his side. I froze and my heart sank as he told me that. I didn't want to freak Patrick out so I carried on with my round and got back to Holly. I told her what Patrick had said and that I heard the toilet flush down there. She decided to call the cops and have them search the backyard of the building. One of the officers said that the screen was missing from room 312, but that was it. I told the officer that that was the room I heard someone using the bathroom in. He said he'd look around again but there's nothing out there. They still found nothing and suggested we put a stick in the window to block it from opening but that's all that came of it that night.
The next night I had a sense of dread coming into work. The evening aides talked to me about how creepy it was and how they're afraid to go to David's room now. I did my best to ignore it but I was terrified to put David to bed that night. I was making my rounds again when I heard some shuffling down the hall. The hallway seemed to get longer and longer as I stared down toward room 312. A lump in my throat formed as I stood frozen. I was jump scared by my coworker Mindy. She was the aide for the center wing. She asked me about what happened and I told her. I also told her that I had just heard something from that room. She invited herself to investigate with me. We walked slowly towards the room. We approached the doorway and I reached for the light switch. I flicked the light on and the room seemed normal. No bathroom light on. Nothing. I asked Mindy to help me make the bed and we started. I kicked something on the ground and realized it was the stick that held the window shut. I looked up at Mindy and held up the stick. Her face turned pale white as she looked at it and me. She let out a scream and pointed at the window. A set of eyes over a dark silhouette stood on the outside of the window. It was a crazy looking guy. His hot breath was making fog on the window as he stared at us. Mindy had run out of the room already and I was left staring at him. I stood frozen as he leaned toward the window. "Thanks for making my bed again." he said with a smile that made my heart drop. Grabbed the window and tried sliding it open. I quickly put my hands on top to hold it shut. He started yelling at me and banging on the window with his hand. Telling me all of his things were in here and cursing at me. Holly and Mindy had come back into the room screaming. The man picked up a rock and started breaking in the window. I held up the stick ready to beat the man. Holly and Mindy pulled me back from the window as the man climbed through the broken glass. I then could see Mindy was on the phone with the police. The man's hands were all cut up from the glass. We eventually managed to fend the guy off and he climbed back out of the window and ran. The cops caught him later and said he was pretty deranged. They had me help them go through David's cabinet, they said the man insisted his things were in the room and that he lived there. Going through David's closet I slowly came to realize that a lot of this stuff wasn't his. Two bags of clothes and a dirty backpack were stuffed in the bottom of the closet. It made me realize that this guy had been living in David's room for at least a little while. David wasn't able to tell us what was going on. He really did think he just had a new roommate. We moved David closer to a room closer to the nurse's station while his window was being repaired. I never heard anything else about the guy that broke in. I figured he was admitted to a mental hospital somewhere. Hopefully he got the help he needed.
All this wasn't enough to make me quit the night shift. I do take noises I hear a lot more seriously now. I started working at the hospital a couple months later and security is a lot tighter there. Dark hallways still make me uneasy to this day and I always find myself checking for open windows."
2023.03.26 14:42 ItsSnoky 25 [M4F] UK/Europe - Looking to get to know someone who i can get to know and much more
IntroductionWell hello there! (General Kenobi!). I'm Snoky also known as you'll find out when we get to know eachother
I’m a 25 year old English/Norwegian guy from the U of K! I currently work in the IT Sector within the Local Government and my god I forgot how hectic the public sector was after i left it roughly 4 years ago. I did indeed have quite a shock coming back 😅
ApperanceI'm on the bigger side but am looking to get that changed with some help due to i'm not very happy with the way thing's are currently. Minus that I'm 6'1/6'2, depends on which doctor you ask! I have short-ish hair dark blonde hair? I think? I'm not very good with colors so you'll have to tell me whenever we decide to exchange pictures.
Which i will be more than happy to exchange later on once we get to know eachother!
Main Intrests/HobbiesMy main interests are either playing games with some friends on the PC, studying for future certifications and mainly what I do after work just kicking back and watching whatever random things I can find on YouTube (I aren’t a big TV person). I used to watch a lot of anime but I tend to drop out of it for a year and then I get back in to it then I lose interest again heh, it’s just a thing that I’ve been doing for years on end.
I am somewhat in to movies but I haven’t really properly watched any within the last year or so but if I was to give a rough genre, I’d say dark-ish movies with a grabbing story i.e. DC films and a here and there Marvel film (IW ftw!) I much more prefer it when the bad guy gets the upper hand and basically wins as close to that of Thanos basically.
My main music choices? Everywhere and everything. If my ears like it, then chances are I’ll most likely like it. I’d write down all the artists I follow right now but trust me it’d take too long to go over so it’d probs better to just share my Spotify playlist lmao. But to give a quick sum up I’d say its more around mixed genre, alt-rock basically.
I do also write my own stuff as well, but again like anime I do it for like 6 months then stop, then start a year later so eh it’s a pretty hit and miss hobby for me 😅
Future Prospects?As mentioned in my apperance section i'm in the process of trying to get fit with weight loss as I’m not very happy with how I am at the moment especially when it comes to health after a incident a few years ago but that’s neither here nor the future as I’m looking to change it with the help of the NHS and people around me. I'd be more than happy to join forces together with someone who's trying to do the same thing!
I currently own my own company which is currently under going some development but hasn't actually started as of yet (still looking in that area) but it will get there at somepoint!
Alongside my own company I’m also undergoing a project with a close friend of mine that we’re trying to pursue which is actually happening alongside the org itself so it's all looping togetherslowly but surely.
What am i looking for?I'm looking for someone who's intrested in getting to know eachother, someone who's got my back and i've got theres, someone i can well essentially "grow" with and get to know, someone who's willing to put the effort in to get to know me and vice versa.I'd like said person to be able to hold a convoersation with me as i've been in too many instances where it's all been one sided convos with me basically putting in more effort than the other person but alas that's neither here nor there and hopfully I'll maybe find the person who would share that equal effort with me. And trust me I've been ghosted loads of times to the point it's like "bruh, just why?" but anyway!
I'm open to long distant's so long as there's a goal to meet eachother in the somewhat near future!
No older than 27 please!
The End?If you've made it this far after this somewhat long post then i must congradulate you!
I now have a small question for you to send me the answer too when you message me.
On what date and or month was a i born? I was born on the month of a certain red birthstone on a international memorial day
p.s, if you don't get it it doesn't matter it's worth a try regardless
Small partial note; If your going to time waste and just ghost me please don't bother messaging me as i'm only intrested in getting to know actual serious people...and please be able to hold a convosation with me and vice versa!

2023.03.26 14:38 NathanStathan I’ve just had a realisation
THIS IS A LONG ONE!!!
I’ll be the first to admit, I’ve had some choice words to describe this game, and some of the players I’ve faced off against. I’ve gotten angry, raged, rage uninstalled. The lot. I’m embarrassed really I’ve let this game get to mentally so much, but you live and you learn.
I’ve had probably in all the years I’ve been playing this game the MOST TOXIC experience I’ve ever had. And I’ve played a lot. Long story short, I wasn’t playing my best, or my main for that matter but yeah I wasnt great, came second overall, and the top player on my team (we lost the game by the way), then proceeded to flame me, like it was my fault why we lost. I probably contributed to it yes, but doubt I was the sole reason. While he was yelling down his mic telling to uninstall and kms, amongst other, I thought two things. Was this how was was I getting angry all of those times? And just how exhausting this game is personally. I’ve took month long breaks from this game with zero desire to play, and it’s been great. I was tempted to message him to just say “yo relax, it’s not that serious” but decided against as it would probably just make things worse.
This game can honestly bring out the worst in people, I’ve fell victim to that now and again, and I just don’t want that anymore. This game just isn’t good for me. So I think I’m done for now at least. All I can say guys, if this game makes you feel angry or to the point you want to want to insult then or to kys, just walk away. It’s not worth your mental health man, honestly. I wish you guys the best in your ventures with this game, and hope you can find pleasure with it I really do.

2023.03.26 14:38 kiraku647 Advice for escalating to Communication Ombudsman - Issues with BT
Hello all!
Based in England - Do you have any advice on how to write to the communications obudsman? Any and all advice appreciated.
Short: I’m helping a very stressed and emotional family member type their complaint about BT re bad/incomplete installation, poor customecomplaint service, harassment of bills/debt letters, misleading salesman. It has had an impact on their business as well as their mental & physical health
Long: Due to a family member’s (FM) negligence, they was duped into a 5yr BTnet leased line contract worth ~£30k for their new holiday let business that had yet to be built, let alone open.
FM initially contacted BT when they completely gutted the building for advice on what cables to run inside the property so they weren’t surface run. FM doesn’t know anything about technology and thought the BT salesman was ‘a mate’ so singed what they suggested. FM has accepted their fault in this…
However, in addition to the above, BT did not place all the cabling/equipment into the operational area agreed with the salesman. They placed some equipment hanging off the wall in a small bedroom against FM’s wishes. The installer didn’t connect the routers and left with items half on wall/abandoned on floor. This was 9 months before opening so FM assumed they would come back at some point.
We later learnt from BT that this equipment should not be in a bedroom/public space as if it were damaged the person could be hurt/the device would cut out for the building. So FM removed and retuned the equipment to BT (ahead of opening business) after BT ignored pleas to rectify for months.
5 months after the installer abandoned the job FM received reminders & bills back dated to the day after the installer arrived. All with the wrong address. FM were not notified the service went live but we also do know know how it is possible when router were not connected/equipment removed for safety. FM has since received several debt collection letters and received a deadlock letter from BT as they would not come to site to review what works were missing. They just keep saying the contract was sold correctly (I feel FM was manipulated) but even if true the contract was not fulfilled?
The stress of dealing with BT and bills for a nonexistent service has caused a lot of stress as well as mental and physical health issues. FM’s draft to the ombudsman is v emotionally charged and I imagine (while true) isn’t the best… any and all advice appreciated
