Similac advance vs sensitive

I (26F, 230p, white) started working out approx. 2 months ago. I have lost 25p so far. I eat a very clean healthy diet now, consisting of mostly green veggies, fruits and lean means. Both my father and grand father have heart problems (both have pace makers, but they have different problems. My dad has atriafib and his heart beats too low. My grand father I believe his might beat too fast?) so I am a bit cautious when it comes to this stuff, but I don’t want to jump to conclusions.
On 2 occasions now I’ve woken up with a chest pain that feels like someone is pressing on my chest, or maybe squeezing it. It’s around my ribs, the upper part under my breasts. Last time I just ignored it, and it got better slightly with eating/drinking. Today however it is much worse. It gets worse when I walk from the kitchen to my bedroom/office. I drank water and it helped momentarily but it gets worse with any movement. I checked my heart rate on my Apple Watch. Usually it’s around 45-55bpm but it was 41bpm when I checked it then. I called in sick to work as I wasn’t sure if it would improve, as food/water hasn’t helped much. If I sit for a moment and breathe deeply it improves.
Yesterday we did have a cheat day (ice cream and Chinese) and I did drink the night before that so I’m not sure if it’s food related? I have had issues with heart burn in the past though and this is nothing like it. I do have issues with staying hydrated, and I do believe I am a bit dehydrated right now.
Is this a normal sort of pain to get occasionally, or does it warrant a trip to my family doc? I don’t want to waste my doctors time if it’s just a silly occasional pain I’m being overly sensitive about. Thank you in advance for any comments help!

How long will this skin flaking go on for? I recently (maybe 3-4 weeks?) started using CosRX products on recommendation from a friend.
I don't use the whitehead liquid every day, and I only use it it my chin, and on my nose as those are the only areas I have white heads. I don't wear makeup every day, but when I do, I don't want it to look terrible, and it currently looks terrible. The fullest part of my cheeks and under my eyes flake terribly and makeup looks awful.
If there's something I should be doing differently or using something different, I'm all ears. My skin wasn't dry or flakey prior to starting, maybe normal winter dryness, but not excessive. I don't have breakouts, or oily skin, and I'm only mildly sensitive, and that's mainly to scented products.
I use:
COSRX: Hydrium Watery Toner
Advanced Snail Peptide Eye Cream
AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid
Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence
Advanced Snail 92 All In One Cream
Josie Maran 100% Pure Argan Oil
Dr. Jart Every Sun Day mineral sunscreen SPF 50+
(Also, I know the last 2 products aren't KB, If you want me to edit my post to remove them, I will. I just thought it might helpful to know everything I'm using)

2012 JGC Laredo. What would the cost be to replace all 4 sets of brake pads at a shop both by themselves just the brake pads etc, and with rotors replaced if needed.
$200 per axle without rotors? $400 axle with rotors?
Money is tight, need brakes, tires, and a rear shock is blown so both rear shocks need replaced at that point.
The shock isn’t bothering me and it still drives fine plus I drive minimal miles each week. Tires still have tread they are more needing replaced due to age rather than wear and tear, so I figured I better do brakes first and hopefully only need the pads vs letting them go and then 100% needing rotors too.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I am a newcomer to the electronic music space (I am an acoustic drummer, that likes to mess around with Synths whenever I'm with a friend that has one).
The place I want to start is finger drumming (going to sell my drum set due to space constraint), and the main piece of hardware I see the few finger drumming content creators using is the Maschine Mk3 (whether Mikro or not). It seems this is due it having great pad sensitivity and being 4x4 grid (Launchpad and Push 2 have great sensitivity, but have 8x8 grid and therefore smaller pads).
The only other device that I see that is 4x4 and I believe has good pads (not positive though) is the Akai MPC Studio.
I would just pull the trigger on the Maschine gear due to the raving recommendations, but Ableton seems to be the DAW that everyone recommends (and I do plan on connecting multiple instruments: Midi Pads, Midi Keyboard, Full Size weighted keyboard, guitar, bass, and vocals at some point).
So my question is, if I have a Novation Launchkey controller, will that overcome the downsides of Maschine not playing well in Abelton if I just use it as an instrument, or am I still being very limited there? Does Maschine have good ways to manually make it play well with Abelton?
Does the MPC Studio play well with Abelton? Or is it in the same boat as Maschine with it being tied to its own MPC software? Anyone have hands on experience of the MPC Studio vs Maschine pads?
Thanks in advance for any advice with this topic, I do not have personal experience with these pieces of hardware of software, which is why I am hoping this community could help. I'm really just looking for the best possible 4x4 pad controller for finger drumming inside of Abelton (which novation made a 4x4 launchpad).

Hi everyone,
I recently broke up with my boyfriend of one year, and it's been a really difficult time for both of us. Unfortunately, my ex-boyfriend has been struggling with suicidal thoughts ever since and I think he's been trying to guilt trip me into going out with him on various occations, he has not yet asked me out again, but im thinking that that's his end goal.
I care about him deeply, but I also know that it's not healthy for me to stay in a relationship that I don't want to be in. I want to move on and start fresh, but I don't want to leave him feeling alone and hopeless. We broke up because he lied to me about a former relationship and wasn't honest with me, other than that he was very sweet.
I've tried talking to him about getting help and seeking therapy, but he seems to be fixated on the idea that he's suicidal and depressed and he hasn't really done anything to help himself. I don't want to enable his harmful behavior, but I also don't want to abandon him in his time of need because even before us dating he was a very sensitive person.
Has anyone been in a similar situation before? How did you handle it? I would appreciate any advice or resources that could help me navigate this difficult situation.
Thank you in advance.

Build Help: What GPU is best value for MSFS, DCS World and Squad?

Have you read the sidebar and rules? (Please do) Yes
What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.
I'm looking to upgrade my current PC which I mainly use for gaming, browsing and some light photo editing in lightroom. The current specs are Ryzen 5 3600, B450 Gaming Pro AC mobo, 16GB DDR4 3600MHz RAM, and a MSI Radeon 5700XT, a 1440p 144hz monitor, and Corsair CX750 (750W) PSU.
I have lots of bad stuttering (more than 1-2 seconds) in games like Squad when there are lots of objects to render at medium graphics, and MSFS often crashes to black screen and shuts the PC down. Although I suspect the MSFS issue is down to memory paging running out of secondary memory space, I still only run the game on medium settings and can benefit from upgrading. Sometimes, even lightroom causes the PC to crash and shutdown if I have music running on my PC and go to edit in photoshop to tweak something at the same time.
I'm looking to update the CPU to a Ryzen 7 5800X3D and add another 16GB RAM, but need help deciding which GPU is best value vs performance.
If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, framerate, game settings)
I'm looking to acheive minumum >60FPS consistently at 1440p ideally, if possible at high or mix of medium-high settings in the above games (MSFS, DCS World, Squad / Post Scriptum)
What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?
Not counting the CPU and RAM upgrade which I have decided on, I'm willing to consider GPU's up to £600 at most. Even that is a stretch considering I will be spending £360 ish on the new CPU and extra RAM alone.
In what country are you purchasing your parts?
UK / GBP / £ / Pounds
Post a draft of your potential build here (specific parts please). Consider formatting your parts list. Don't ask to be spoonfed a build (read the rules!)
Current hardware -> Upgrade hardware
CPU R5 3600 R7 5800X3D
Mobo B450 B450 with BIOS update
RAM Corsair 16GB (3600mhz) add 16GB more of same
GPU MSI Radeon 5700XT ?Advice needed?
Thanks in advance for any help or guidance.

Ever since COVID happened I have been participating in more online channels and platforms. But this year the environment got worse, or most likely I got more sensitive. These days just hearing any of these 3 words online makes me fume with anger: cope, seethe and mald. I don't know where these came from but they get under my skin too easily.
The dilemma is I only go outside for work and I only meet with real friends once per 3 weeks. During a regular day I'm mostly in online channels and if I were to quit them to not hear those 3 words and not feel bad I feel like I will fall into a void and loneliness. Hobbies can help me to an extent but I feel like my sensitivity is preventing me from socializing in general. I also have a big dislike for online slang. I suppose I need to 'touch grass' as I've been told among other many things.
In friend groups I'm often the clown but in a nice way. I enjoy making others laugh through memes and silly things. In my office I tend to bring gifts to others to brighten their day and use it as a way to small talk and chit chat.
I just don't know whether to go fully offline or force myself to get a 'tighter skin'. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Is this show giving me a headache in terms of thinking about the ethics of espionage or the lack of ethics of espionage? It turns out that the ethics of war are easier to analyze than the ethics of espionage. In open warfare, it is ethically permissible to kill anyone who is operating as a combatant, whether he looks, dresses or has the occupation of a combatant or not. If he acts at that moment as a combatant, then it is ethically justified for the enemy to kill that person. But in espionage, Tasneem Qureishi (seasons 4 and 8) and Yevgeny Gromov (seasons 7 and 8) are killing innocent non-combatants, which they need to do, otherwise their cover will be blown. I think a lot of martial law/ethics comes from the writings of Thomas Aquinas and other philosophers. Would anyone who studies martial law/ethics share thoughts on how these thinkers would analyze the ethics of espionage? This program gives me a headache because I can't justify killing innocent noncombatants and spying.
https://www.wsj.com/articles/BL-SEB-84236?fbclid=IwAR3PEyIn-D2zd4_17vpt3SOKayhQwlHCTOUe5HYSaY1eDoQ2SjmxcGolkPM
True believers in Pakistan (Tasneem Qureishi, Bunran "Bunny" Latif) saw her as the agent or embodiment of the forces that would bring about a state of stability for the entire nation. Tasneem is a hardened ideologue and would see any consideration that delayed the realization of her nation's balance as false morality, or no morality at all. So, at least initially, ethical issues are irrelevant to her. She is essentially an intelligence agent who can justify anything if it advances her country's plan.
As Carrie's relationship with Saul deepens and her faith in the CIA wanes, it creates dramatic tension. From her perspective, she shouldn't be investing in a personal relationship that distracts her from her mission to create safety in her homeland.
Certainly not an expert on the ethics of spying, but I think at least Astrid would have argued that her country was at war with the followers of the Islamic State and therefore the rules of engagement applied. Carrie would have argued that, when given a mission, Astrid was authorized to use all means necessary to carry it out, and I don't think Mathison cared much about the distinction between combatant and non-combatant. I believe that Mathison only saw the USA and its citizens as priorities.
Spying itself is deeply unethical, but states justify it on the grounds that it is the only way to protect self-interest. It's also easier to look back and see Carrie&Saul's actions as less than vital, because they never stopped their country from collapsing. But at the moment, things looked different for them.
Imagine a pair of Ukrainian spies currently working in Russia to uncover secrets that could help Ukraine survive the war, who kill non-combatants to protect their identities. It's horrible to consider, but many people might think that the ends justify the means.
Although spying is often seen as an inherently immoral practice, however common it is, different normative frameworks can be invoked. According to the “dirty hands” approach, espionage is a necessary evil – government agents must engage in fraud, bribery and other morally dubious acts to protect national security. Contractualist approaches to espionage, on the other hand, suggest that governments have tactically consented to engage in espionage because it is a mutually beneficial practice that allows states to protect their citizens from harm. In this view, spies follow an unwritten moral code – similar to a code of conduct for soldiers – where certain immoral acts, such as lying, become morally acceptable in the context of espionage.
Just remember that, in theory, spying works both ways. The Homeland series is fiction, of course, but the Russians in the GRU are much more brutal than the Americans in real life. They cremated a guy alive when he was caught spying. There are rules in business and they are generally adhered to because the cost of violating them is quite high. Like in the show when Gromov murdered FBI agent Dante after stabbing Clayton. This kind of dirt is what is trying to be avoided in real life. Spies don't have protection under the treaty or anything like that. Your presence in another country is enough to drive them away forever. That's why this whole "license to kill" thing is so funny. Everything they do is super illegal, killing someone is not some crazy escalation.
Well by nature spying is illegal. Particularly the type of spying that involves stealing information and technology. If they get caught, they're going to jail forever and their kids are wards of the state. These are the stakes. Technically they're not forced to kill. But they also can't risk getting caught. So ethically the show is all over the place and their situation is part of the questions the show raises about like…right and wrong,legal and illegal,duty vs morality,loyalty to family vs state,all of it.

I'm an angry fat man and sometimes an even angrier bear. But you know what really gets me mad is how much time it takes me to review loot when my bags are full. Affixes are way too wordy and contain too many similar words making it difficult to parse at a glance. So yes, here's another UI rant thread.
Improvement 1: Reword stats
Stats should be one to three words. It's a desecration against Sanctuary how many affixes span two lines of text. It's even worse when advanced item information is shown. Many of the words used are implied and don't need to be in the affix text. The whole system would be cleaner and easier to read with fewer "damage" and "chance" in the mix. For instance "vs" for the conditional modifiers instead of "Damage to X Enemies".
Examples:

• +X% Critical Strike Chance X% Critical Chance
  
• +X% Critical Strike Damage X% Critical Damage
  
• +X% Damage to Slowed Enemies X% vs Slowed
  
• +X% Damage to Crowd Controlled Enemies X% vs Controlled
  

Improvement 2: Color coding
Color coding is another big improvement to aid in skimming. Rainbow Filter is a mod I use in Grim Dawn and a fantastic QoL improvement I'd love to see adopted here. Affixes in that game are centered around element types. I'm not sure how you'd categorize things in Diablo 4.
Improvement 3: Display stats in a fixed order
Stats should be ordered in a set way. Here's the order I'd use:

• Ranks to Skills
  
• Damage Stats
  
• Conditional Damage Stats
  
• Defensive Stats
  
• Utility Stats
  
• Socket
  

TLDR: Item properties should be easier to skim so we can get back to clicking. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Right now I have a few air powered impacts, plus use of larger (3/4 & 1") shop supplied impacts. They work well and I like the smoothness of the air impacts. I'm looking at a job change that would involve going out on service calls on large diesel equipment. I know the milwaukee 1/2" impact is a brute, but is the 3/4" drive worthwhile? Will it hold its own vs a 3/4" air impact? I'm truly curious from those that have one if it's worth the money spent...thanks in advance!

Not much information on internet though.

You can call me Ty, I’m a 20 year old male who loves to roleplay. I have a couple plots as well as rules and all that boring stuff.
Rules~
1~don’t come into my dms with a hey, wanna rp, hi, or anything that’s like one sentence. Tell me a bit about your self and what kinda roleplayer you are, if you have any plots. It’s not needed but a sample of your writing is great.
2~ please no minors.
3~ semi lit to advanced lit. I’m looking for someone who can ATLEAST write a well detailed paragraph but I prefer more but that’s up to you.
4~ please use real face claims and not anime, drawings are ok as long as they are semi realistic.
5~ 3rd person only.
6~ discord only.
Ok those are all my rules. I’ll share a few plots here however I have more in my notes so if none of these intrest you let me know and we can find something or come together and make a plot that fits us both. The more ! Marks the more I wanna do them. If they have a ❌ I don’t have any partners for them yet.
Plots~

1. A weird situation. !!! ❌

Your my brothers ex wife however your vacation was already planned before the you caught him cheating. We’ve been friends since children and I was the one who introduced you to him. Both our ocs are from West Virginia and the vacation is in New York or somewhere else.
You decided to go and so did I however were from different classes as I’m often getting in trouble with the law and my big brother is a successful businessman who’s rich. I am youngest child and the second oldest brother is who bought my hotel room but as I get to the hotel a couple minutes before you I find out my hotel room was canceled and I have to sleep on the couch of the penthouse room you got. (Long term, slow burn, SoL, drama, present time, romance.)
2~ Polar opposites. ! ❌
Two people with cybernetic powers both “lab rats from the same lab.” My character has advanced past the center and sent out to be allowed to roam and live life, being called for “jobs” any escaped test subject he would hunt down and kill or bring back alive. Your the prodigy of a doctor named Markus Shizuoka. A woman made from an embryo.
One day she escapes from the facility breaking out and seeking her freedom. My character gets the job to seek a hit out on her. He tracks her down and captures her but after seeing just how strong she is he has a plan he’s always hated the facility. (More in depth on his bio once we start.) he helps her get back at them by blowing up the facility. We decide what happens after. (Long term, action, romance, sci fi, semi futuristic, slow burn, rough topics)
3~ The broken love. !! ❌
Your a new hire to a rich ceo of a rich man who’s married. Your his secretary. Recently him and his wife have been falling out of love. They tried having a kid but that only made it worse after the miscarriage.
The relationship you have with him is completely platonic atleast for now. He has a huge business trip coming up in Japan and what a better way to fight for his marriage by then take his wife with him. Plot twist she makes up a reason to not come. He already bought two tickets and decided to ask you to come with him. You agree and we decide what happens in the mean time.
The trip ends up coming up short from him not booking the hotel long enough so they head back. He comes home to his wife cheating on him and now needs a place to stay. Where will he stay a hotel, the house of his intern, or the office. (Long term, slow burn, drama, sol, modern times, romance.)
4~ The toxic man. ! ❌
You meet a man at a bar. Extremely good looking, well spoken, has money. You get into him talking to him getting to know him exchanging numbers. For some reason you can’t get your mind off him and you can’t figure out why.
He ends up being extremely toxic, cheating, lying, keeping secrets about how he has money. (It would great for you to also be toxic and maybe a bit crazy for him.) (Long term, sensitive topics, slow burn, drama, romance, modern times.)
Hi thanks for reading my post, I can’t wait to hear from you all and hope to hear from you soon. Have a great day and if you have ANY questions what so ever don’t be scared to dm me. Have a great day or night!

FUE Vs. FUT Hair Transplant: Which Is The Best Method For Hair Transplant?

Hair loss is becoming an increasingly common issue among people of age these days.
According to research, 85% of men and 40% of women are impacted by some level of hair loss across the world.
But thanks to the advancements in healthcare and technology, it is now possible to regain a head full of hair with hair transplantation.
For the uninitiated, hair transplantation is a type of cosmetic surgery that moves hair you already have to an area where is thin or no hair on the scalp of your head. This type of surgery is usually performed by either hair surgeon or plastic surgeons.
It has become a beacon of hope for anyone with an extreme hair loss issue.
Currently, there are two popular hair transplantation methods out there for hair restoration:

• Follicular Unit Excision (FUE)
• Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)

Both these hair transplant methods can restore your hair and give you naturally thicker and fuller locks.
If you’re serious about getting a hair transplant, it is important to learn everything about each hair transplant method.
In this post, we have explained what is FUE & FUT hair transplant, their benefits, and how to identify which hair transplant method is right for you.

What is a FUE Hair Transplant?

In FUE hair transplantation, the hair surgeon first identifies a donor area from which the follicular unit is extracted.
The donor area is selected based on which area has fuller hair or less noticeable thinning of the area after extraction. To extract or harvest hair, hair surgeon use microscopic circular incisions on your scalp.
After extraction, the hair follicles are prepped for transplantation into the areas with thinning or baldness on the scalp of your hair.
You may experience some redness or soreness for a couple of days after receiving the treatment.

Different Types of FUE Hair Transplants

There are two different types of FUE hair transplants you can get.

Manual FUE Hair Transplant

A manual FUE hair transplant is done by a hair surgeon using handheld devices to do both, extract each hair follicle from the donor area and implant it into the recipient area.

Robotic FUE Hair Transplant

As the name suggests, the robotic FUE hair transplant is performed using ARTAS robotic hair transplant device that is controlled by a hair surgeon.
In this method, the hair surgeon inputs the amount of hair desired to be extracted into the device by mapping out the donor area.
Once the harvesting step is completed, the hair surgeon uses the same device to implant the harvested hair follicles into the recipient area.

Benefits of FUE Hair Transplant

There are plenty of benefits to getting an FUE hair transplant for hair restoration.
Following are the most important FUE hair transplant benefits if you are considering getting it for yourself.

• Natural looking results
• No pain during as well as post-treatment
• Minimal scarring in the donor area
• High graft quality
• Short recovery time

Success Rate of FUE Hair Transplant

FUE hair transplants are equally successful as regular FUT hair transplants, with over 90% average graft survival rate.
If you opt for a robotic FUE hair transplant, the success rate of treatment can be as high as 100%.
However, the success of an FUE hair transplant procedure also depends on the knowledge, skills, and experience of the hair surgeon performing the treatment.

What is a FUT Hair Transplant?

The FUT hair transplantation method (also known as the strip method) is similar to the FUE method. The hair surgeon starts by identifying an ideal donor area on your scalp.
However, the key difference between the two is that the FUT hair transplant involves removing a long thin piece of tissue from the back of your scalp.
After tissue removal, hair surgeon remove the individual follicular units from the strip using stereo-microscopic dissection.
Once the hair follicles are extracted, the wound is closed. Unlike the FUE method, this method does leave a linear scar on the scalp of your head.

Benefits of FUT Hair Transplant

Just like the FUE method, FUT hair transplant has its own benefits. These benefits include:

• Natural looking results
• Higher follicles survival rate
• Manageable recovery time (10-12 days)
• No additional scarring with subsequent treatments

Success Rate of FUT Hair Transplant

The success rate of a FUT hair transplant largely depends on the expertise of your hair surgeon.
Since this is mostly a manual treatment, it is recommended to choose your hair surgeon very carefully.
A well-experienced hair surgeon can perform the FUT hair transplant with up to 95-98%

How to Decide between FUE Vs FUT Hair Transplant?

As you have just learned, both hair transplant methods are an excellent option for anyone struggling with hair loss.
However, the final decision depends on a variety of factors. For example, if you have thinning or balding only at the top front of your head, then the robotic FUE hair transplant would be the right method.
Furthermore, it also depends on your hair growth density and stability in the donor area of your scalp.
FUT hair transplant, on the other hand, is recommended when your primary goal is to not just cover thinning or baldness but to achieve maximum hair restoration.
The FUT treatment is usually for people who have extreme baldness around the crown area. And in such cases, the FUT hair transplant can provide better coverage as well as fullness.

Conclusion

When it comes to choosing between FUE Vs FUT hair transplant method, it is important to discuss with your hair surgeon to determine which is best suited for you.
Additionally, you should also convey your expectations, goals, and your hairline’s final designs. Providing this information will help your hair surgeon decide which hair transplantation method is right for you.

Hi first time posting here! I am a 33 yr old female, with minimal skin issues. My routine consists of Cereve SA cleanser at night , Fresh Rose hydrating toner , I use tretinoin 1 night on two nights off at 0.5%. After the tret sinks in I apply moisturizer usually I use tatcha at night. In the morning I do a quick cleanse with my philosophy cleanser , vitamin C and here is where the issue comes my daily moisturizer (I have tried a lot.) always leaves me feeling heavy and greasy. I have had a hard time finding a moisturizer that absorbs vs just sitting on my skin. I have a job where I am in a mask more hours than not so I really dislike feeling greasy.
Any recommendations for combination skin ? I would really love a moisturizer that absorbs well but doesn’t feel like anything is on my skin. Thank you in advance 🫶🏼
