So my index controller and a lighthouse broke a while ago (unconnected but at pretty much the same time), and seeing that the whole lighthouse ecosystem is a bit of a sinking ship (the best controllers are no longer in production and HTC don't seem all that interested in keeping it alive) I've decided I want to replace it with an inside out tracking headset if possible.

That seems to leave me a with with a few options - pico 4, quest 3, steam frame (waitlisted), psvr2 or a pimax.

I'm mostly interested in pcvr, but not sit-down sim type games. I'd love to go for an enthusiast tier headset - price isn't a huge issue for me as long as it's actually buying me something more, but as far as i c

So I've suffered for chronic, non watery diarrhoea with poorly formed stool for a long, long time. I've discovered loperamide helps a lot pretty much instantly but often pushes the needle too far in the other direction, not quite to the point of what I'd consider constipation but enough to cause me to strain

​

Are there any medications that work similarly but are just a little bit less aggressive in how much they slow motility? Has anyone had a similar experience and found something that reliably works?

My new puppies kennel club registration cleared, and it turns out he has an inbreeding coefficient of just over 12.5 - just how bad is this? I'm due to pick him up in a month, looks like his parents both had the same father. As far as i can tell his ancestry is otherwise healthy with good scores for hips, elbows and eyes as well as a few best in breed wins, and the breeder seems to be well regarded and doing most things right.

I'll be bringing home a standard poodle puppy next month (my first dog) and have been shopping around for quotes from different insurance providers.

​

My local vet offers "pet health club" which I'll likely be paying for to cover all the basic vaccinations and health checks a puppy will need. That also comes with a 20% discount on animal friends pet insurance, so there's an incentive to go with them and they seem relatively well reguarded.

​

But I'm reading so many horror stories of pet owners being trapped with pre-existing conditions and absurd premium increases even with no claims made.

I know petplan garuantee not to increase with claims but start out quite a

Currently relying on an 18" industrial floor fan and it does an ok job (I point it out the window), but have been wanting to up my fan game to deal with the current uk heatwave.

Loft room gets really hot during the day. I'm hoping to pull as much air up from the ground floor of the house as possible and throw it out the loft to create a nice breeze of cooler air. I've been doing a little research and have come across blower type fans used for cardio workouts - would they perform better at this than a standard axial floor fan? Any recommendations on particularly good fans for moving a very high volume of air, relatively cheaply?

Played the vanilla game on release for a fair while, set it down to come back when the modding scene took off.

With the new update i decided to come back and give the game another try, but since the modding scene isn't as lively as I'd hoped and many of the more popular mods on the nexus seem long abandoned it's hard to pinpoint what's good and worth adding to the modlist.

Main things I'm interested in are making the combat more interesting, improvements to POIs and exploration, completely new content and mechanics. It also must be either working with the latest update or actively maintained so will be updated within the forseeable future.

Heya o/

My partner (They/Them) and I (He/Him) are looking to join a TTRPG game other than 5th ed dnd, particularly interested in WOD and of those particularly werewolf, but are open to most other systems (Starfinder is another we have been looking at).

We are available Wednesday through to Saturday from 2pm Arizona time (MST without daylight savings) (10pm BST), although Thursdays might be inconsistent.

We both have a fair bit of experience with TTRPGS, I have a little bit of experience with VTM and some other systems, they only really have DND and pathfinder experience.

Successfully got refunded on my last subscription on the grounds that the subscription features are now useless. This might depend on your local laws and other factors.

I'm done with the game, but if you plan to keep playing you might not want to do this in case your account gets axed for it.

The closest to these I've encountered are "Am I Nima" and "Who's lila?", as well as a small roguelike game called parasite.

I'm mostly looking for you playing some 'other' being (or just playing some sort of evil - murderer, cultist etc) trying to pass for a human, with remaining undetected/undiscovered being a core part of the game. Destroy all humans and Prototype have a small mechanical element of this, but i'm looking for it to be the main concept of the game or at the very least be very fleshed out.

I've been wanting to make the switch to oled for a few years now (and upgrade from 1440 to 4k), but the most recommended monitors i see are all approaching £900-£1000+ (e.g the pg32ucdm), while I've seen cheaper models in the £500 region (e.g evnia 32m2c6500, MAG 341cqp) that on a cursory lookup get plenty of praise as well. Is there really an extra £500 worth of quality/features in the "best" recommendations, or are people paying for brand/sponsorships pushing the expensive ones to the top of lists?

Not so high key as something like horizon zero dawn, where it's a *major* element of the story from the outset and you're surrounded by high tech robot dinosaurs, but games that play it a bit closer to the chest, where characters are mostly unaware of what they're seeing or uncovering at least initially and for most of the game and the future elements are limited in their scope and influence on the broader world.

Wondering if anyone has had this experience or figured out the cause/a fix.

I've noticed certain static objects added by mods cause ungodly levels of lag when I come within about 3ft of them, but otherwise the game runs butter smooth. The first one I noticed was the miniature standing stones in the Alternate perspective alternate start mod room, but I've also noticed it in legacy of the dragonborn with the cabinet right near the entrance to the museum and a few spots in the ultimate college of winterhold mod.

I'm guessing it's either a conflict between meshes or some issue on the side of the way the mod is placing these objects (clipping through the floor mesh perhaps?) that isn't present

I've scrolled my way through the nexus VR category, have all the staple VRIK based mods up and running alongside a few hundred others. Now I'm on the hunt for more mods that really play well with the VR experience (e.g they naturally work with HIGGS, PLANCK and VRIK due to how they're inplemented as with the throwing mods) or straight up support it in special ways beyond their flatrim versions. Super bonus points for mods that can't be found on the nexus, that exist in a beta state for playtesting buried on a github or discord server somewhere.
