Do I have any hope this cycle? I really feel like my clinic messed things up. I went in for my mid cycle scan yesterday at CD 9 and I had 3 follicles all around 16 mm. At first the doctor wanted me to cancel due to having three follicles due to the risk of multiples but the doctor I saw last cycle upped me to 7.5 mg of letrozole in hopes of getting 2-3 since I was getting 1 (maybe 2) on 5 mg. She also let me proceed with a thin lining (5 mm) when I usually am around 8 at my mid cycle. She had me trigger last night at 8 pm for an IUI this morning around 9 am. They are not open for IUI on the weekends.
When I went for my IUI this morning, a different doctor was shocked she had me trigger only 12 hours before and said he would have at least done it in clinic at my appointment. He wasn’t concerned about the lining since it would continue to grow post trigger shot, the trigger can help the lining grow as well and 7/8 mm is more what they prefer for IVF patients. We still proceeded with the IUI since my husband’s sperm was already processed and I was ready to go but he recommended we continue to have sex to get the window a little closer.
Did the first doctor mess up the timing this cycle? I also asked for progesterone this time and she said to start it 1dpiui but I feel like that would possibly mean that I’m taking it before ovulation with the short time between the trigger and the IUI.

Hello all, I have been beating my head against the wall trying to figure out the cause of some errors I am seeing in windows event viewer on a windows server 2019 physical server.

Ive been researching the last 3 or 4 days and have not been able to find much. I have made sure that the server is fully patched. Does anyone have an idea of where I need to start?
Thanks in advance.

I've had the setup for a few years but only very recently has it now run into an issue. When running my pc will randomly shut off but not completely (the monitors will black out but the power on the pc and monitors are still lit) I am forced to turn the pc off via the power button then back on to get the screen to return. I then check my amd only to find it will uninstall. I have

1. Stopped windows automatic updates via the group policy
2. Made sure my drivers are updated.
3. Re installed my windows
4. Updated my Bios
5. Checked for loose cables (none to be found)
6. Configured my C states to disabled

And a few other things but nothing is working, I cannot tell whether it's hardware or software, the fact that it is uninstalling for me says software but then I've just about done everything I can. Could anyone please help me out, I'm not really good with these kinds of things.
I have a AMD RADEON RX 6600 XT for the display adapter
For the processor AMD ryzen 7 3700x 8 core processor
For the board I have a B550 AORUS ELITE AX V2.
Anything is appreciated.

For context yes, I am a person who loves this style of game. I've finished Elden Ring, Dark Souls 1 & 3, and Sekiro. I loved pretty much every minute of ever one of these games. I'm not especially good at them, but I'm persistent enough to have finished them.
The things I love about this game are:
The story: From soft have a very different approach to storytelling. The biggest difference between DS1, 2 +3, Elden Ring, and Bloodborne compared to many other games is that 98% of the main story has already happened. You're thrown into a world oblivious of all but a few small details. Most of the main players in the story are either dead, insane, corrupted in some way, or aged and decrepit by the time you find them. You read item descriptions and listen to NPCs mutter away giving you these little fragments that you piece together over time. But in amongst the main story there's individual characters that you come to know and watch as they play out their own story in the midst of what's happened in the world. These NPC questlines can be genuinely moving like Solaire in DS1. There's one in particular called Eileen the Crow that's truly, truly beautiful. She's a part of the main story but she also has her own arc aside from it, as do a number of other characters. It feels like the main story is like the mountain, but there are many different experiences and perspectives on what it means to climb it. Without giving too much away it's a story written in the Cosmic Horror tradition of Lovecraft or Thomas Ligotti, imo on par in quality with both these authors.
Combat: as with all games from this developer this game has a combat system that is incredibly well calibrated. Tight, responsive controls and one of the greatest parry mechanics of all time. You parry with a gun. It's very, very satisfying. It has some of the best weapons of any game I have ever played. Weapons have 2 different modes, each with a unique Moveset and play style. There isn't a bad weapon in the game. They are pretty much all viable to use beginning to end. It has a mechanic called Rally, where you have a short window to regain lost health by attacking immediately after you're hit. It has the effect of rewarding a hyper-aggressive play style instead of using spacing or a shield to be safe.
The atmosphere: incredibly dark, indescribably fantastic.
The levelling system: you do have to learn what's what if you're not familiar, but it's not hugely complex. You can grind to get stronger if you feel like you need to, but there's an upper limit as to how much this will help.
The difficulty: you will get smashed to bits no matter what. Especially if you're not all that familiar with Souls games. I had times when I thought I would never beat certain parts, but I also had times when I did after many, many attempts. That feeling rules. The game basically says ok sorry bud, I can see you like the game enough to have gotten this far, but if you can't do this then I'm sorry but you're just not gonna get to see the rest of the game. And as strange as it sounds it's always 100% worth it every time.
The sounds: beautiful, haunting music. Horrible, screeching enemies. Yelling in British. Brilliant NPC dialogue.
I definitely recommend this game. I give it a 9.7.

As the title says, I'm experimenting with Gamescope on X11 under Mint to hopefully ameliorate some refresh rate woes. The Flatpak seems to be working, but actually using it causes Devil May Cry 5 to display a black screen. Running Mesa 24.0.7 on an AMD RX 580. The terminal reports as follows:

And then loops the last 3 prints constantly. Am I doing something wrong, or is this broken somehow? Any help is appreciated.

Summary of issue: I am using two Sony PS5 controllers to play local multiplayer games on my Flow x13 with gf. Connecting them works fine via Bluetooth, but about a minute into playing a game, one of the controllers shuts off, usually the one that was connected second. We have to turn it back on, let it reestablish connection, and play until it inevitably shuts off again. This has been going on ever since we bought the controllers 4 months ago. The problem never occurred with Sony PS4 controllers. The only "fix" is to plug both controllers into a power source during play, either the laptop or the wall outlet. If one of them is unplugged, the problem persists on that controller. And of course, I always make sure the controllers are charged.
The issue is completely absent when testing the controllers with games on my gf's laptop. Her laptop specs: Lenovo 14" IdeaPad Flex 5 Multi-Touch 2-in-1 Notebook 1.8 GHz AMD Ryzen 7 8-Core 16GB DDR4 RAM 512GB M.2 NVMe PCIe SSD 14" 1920 x 1080 IPS Touchscreen Integrated AMD Radeon Graphics USB 3.2 Gen 1 HDMI 3.5mm Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) Bluetooth 5.2 Windows 11 Home
My specs (the problem laptop): ASUS ROG Flow X13 GV301QE_GV301QE (2021) AMD Ryzen™ 9 5980HS Mobile Processor (8-core/16-thread, 20MB cache, up to 4.8 GHz max boost) NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3050 Ti Laptop GPU With ROG Boost up to 1135MHz at 35W (40W with Dynamic Boost) 4GB GDDR6 16GB*2 LPDDR4X on board 1TB PCIe® 3.0 NVMe™ M.2 SSD (2230) Wi-Fi 6(802.11ax) (Dual band) 2*2 + Bluetooth® 5.1 Wireless Card (running on version 5.2) Windows 10 Home What I have tried (in no particular order or number of repetitions): -Removing then pairing again the controllers -Updating GPU, CPU, Bluetooth drivers -Updating Windows -Resetting the controllers -Going through all combinations of Steam's controller settings -Reinstalling the Bluetooth drivers -Rolling back the Bluetooth drivers -Installing the updated firmware on the controllers -Removed other paired devices -Disabled Bluetooth Power Management -Updated BIOS
I'm really at a loss for what to do as there are no resources online pertaining to this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to ask for any additional information or clarification.

Chapter 4: Understanding Charts and Time Frames

We will explore the different types of charts, time frames, and how to use them effectively on TradingView.com. By the end of this chapter, you will have a solid understanding of how to use charts and time frames to analyze and trade the markets.

What are Charts and Time Frames?

Charts and time frames are the foundation of technical analysis. A chart is a graphical representation of a security's price action over a specific period. Time frames, on the other hand, refer to the duration of the data displayed on the chart. In other words, time frames determine how much data is displayed on the chart and how often the data is updated.

Types of Charts

There are several types of charts, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. The most common types of charts are:
1. Line Chart: A line chart connects the closing prices of a security over a specific period, creating a continuous line. This chart is useful for identifying trends and patterns.
2. Candlestick Chart: A candlestick chart displays the high, low, open, and close prices of a security over a specific period. Each candle represents a specific time period, and the color of the candle indicates whether the price closed higher or lower than the previous day's close.
3. Bar Chart: A bar chart is similar to a candlestick chart but does not display the open and close prices. Instead, it shows the high and low prices, as well as the open and close prices.
4. Renko Chart: A Renko chart is a type of chart that uses a unique algorithm to create a chart that is not based on time. Instead, it uses price movements to create a chart that is more focused on the price action.

Time Frames

Time frames determine the duration of the data displayed on the chart. Common time frames include:
1. 1-minute: A 1-minute chart displays the price action over a 1-minute period.
2. 5-minute: A 5-minute chart displays the price action over a 5-minute period.
3. 15-minute A 15-minute chart displays the price action over a 15-minute period.
4. 30-minute: A 30-minute chart displays the price action over a 30-minute period.
5. 1-hour: A 1-hour chart displays the price action over a 1-hour period.
6. 4-hour: A 4-hour chart displays the price action over a 4-hour period.
7. Daily: A daily chart displays the price action over a 1-day period.
8. Weekly: A weekly chart displays the price action over a 1-week period.
9. Monthly: A monthly chart displays the price action over a 1-month period.

Using Charts and Time Frames on TradingView.com

1. Creating a Chart: To create a chart on TradingView.com, go to the "Charts" tab and select the security you want to chart. Choose the chart type and time frame you want to use.

I have been finalizing my entry criteria in the past weeks. I have now more clear rules in order to justify an entry. Some of the existing entries did not match these updated rules so I decided to remove them for small profits or losses and keep some others that where still showing relative good strength. The result of those adjustments being a small loss, I decided to count them as 1 loss for the current trading window.
As for the technical, I simple screen for stocks making fresh new 52 week highs, Like Darvas did, and enter after the break of the first consolidation box after that high, clear and simple.
On paper trading I also saw that several times, stocks need more space to breath and that my initial 10% risk was sometimes a bit short, so I changed my risk tolerance to 15% but lowered my exposure on any stock to 1/20 of my capital, except some exceptions, which means that I only risk no more of 15%/20 which is 0,75% of my capital on any stock. That brings the total positions to 20 at the beginning my goal being to have 52 in the future.
Given the new increased risk above I had also to increase my profit target to 100% instead of 50% to keep a good Risk/Reward of 1/6 meaning that I only need 13% of winning trades to be break even and that anything above 30% brings already good profits, my goal being to reach 50%.
I have also decided to put an age limit of 52 weeks on all my trades meaning that after 52 weeks I will close the trade whatever the profit is, that's also why I have a goal of having 52 stocks in my portfolio, that would allow me to collect and compound profits every week.
That's all I have put in place and started doing, It seems to me like the perfect system, I just need now to prove to myself that I can do it and most important, manage it in any market circumstance.

Hi all,
I am a 26 year old male btw. Prior to this bout of insomnia thats been affecting me the past 2 weeks, I am someone who slept 7-8 hours a night regularly, and was out relatively quickly when attempting to sleep. There have been occasions where I couldn't get to sleep in the past, but they would be incredibly infrequent and only last 1 night. I'm someone who fortunately hasn't had to put much effort into my bed time routine, although I have always been quite a healthy person, and also meditate frequently.
That is, until now. I had a couple infrequent nights of sleep back to back, possibly due to stressors in my life. I went through a breakup a month back, and I have a lot on at work. This breakup could be a potential root cause, however I feel like I've processed the pain quite well and the first 2 weeks I didn't really struggle much when getting to sleep. I truly believe I've had 5x the amount of anxiety and stress from external events than I do now and I didn't have sleep issues then.
Despite working on a thorough wind down routine, I get to the point of exhaustion where I feel I am ready to drift off. I do feel a slight sense of dread now at the thought of going to bed, but I believe that I get myself in the mindset where I am pretty clear headed, and trying to avoid thoughts or cares about not sleeping that night. Yet after 10 minutes of attempting to sleep, it's like my sympathetic nervous system activates, my heart starts beating faster, I feel a pit in my stomach, I heat up. Then I'll be awake until about 5-6am, despite waking up at 8am every day for the past 2 weeks (I've been attempting the CBT-I stuff). I've tried melatonin, and I think this helps with sleep timing a bit as I managed to push back the window in which I get sleepy at least, but it doesn't seem like the solution, only an aid. I've also tried to meditate whilest going through this feeling to see if I could rationalise it, and understand it better, or whether there is something external causing this state of panick. But nothing seems rational. My thoughts are that I've somehow contracted some sort of dysautonomia or other illness that is attacking my nervous system. Once I do actually fall asleep the first time, I rarely wake up again, and in the morning I am shattered, as if I can sleep longer - I think this is potentially a good sign, however I know that if I indulge in sleeping in during the day then I won't sleep the entire next night (also work!)
I am really scared of the fact that I've been averaging 3 hours sleep for the past 2 weeks, as I've never been nearly so sleep deprived. I know that sleep deprivation is dangerous, and I'm scared of this spiraling into other health complications. I'm considering trying ant anxiety meds before bed, or maybe some sleeping pills.
Does what I'm going through sound familiar? Do you think it could be my nervous system malfunctioning? Does anyone have any advice? I have a business trip next week for 5 days, and I'm hopeful that a new sleeping environment might reset me.

My LO is just shy of 15 weeks. For the last 2-3 weeks she has been having false starts every bedtime. Her natural bedtime was 8pm, and I had attempted to move it back to 7 with no luck. We’ve tried more time napping, less time napping, smaller wake windows and bigger wake windows, shortening and lengthening the WW right before bed. We’ve tried bedtimes at 8pm, 730pm and 7pm. We have had the same bedtime routine for months. No change. She sometimes goes down easily, sometimes it’s a fight, but either way she’ll wake up somewhere between 10mins and 30mins and usually she’ll immediately start crying. It then also takes anywhere from 10-45mins to settle her again.
Could these false starts just be a developmental phase? Or is it most likely related to her schedule somehow and I should keep tweaking? Anyone have any advice?

First and foremost: Laptop Asus TUF Gaming A15 Amd Ryzen 7 7735HS(With integrated gpu) Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 16GB RAM Windows 10
Now to issues: -Brightness does not change when I try to regulate it: The "brightness regulating bar" appears and changes, but there's no reaction on screen, brightness stays the same. only time when it changes is when I restart PC or reinstall gpu drivers, it changes to the level that is on a brightness bar rn. -Playing games is impossible since It feels like it chooses integrated GPU, not the designated one. I tried playing TF2 and it felt awful.
I tried: -Playing around with battery settings, turning of any "save battery" settings I found. -Looked into registry using guide but didn't find anything of use, there were no things that I was looking for -restarted pc
My thoughts: I could say that it is save battery issue, or it is some software problem with main GPU. idk what to do, help

Hi all, sorry if it's been already asked, but I couldn't find any detailed info or tests. I'm in the market for a new laptop which would be used mostly for work, but it'd be a nice option if it could handle gaming too.
I'm a backend developer, so my workload tends to be more heavy on the CPU and the RAM side, but I'd also like to dip my toes to machine learning. Hence, a GPU could come in handy. Also, I like to travel, and it would be nice to play a game or two with my friends when I'm on a trip.
My current laptop is a 3-years old Lenovo Yoga with a great 14" OLED screen, a Ryzen 7 5700H, 16 gigs of RAM. It's a nice machine for general use, but not so much anymore for doing actual work. The issues I'd like to address with it are the following:

• a 14" screen is just a tad bit small
• 16 GB of RAM is not enough anymore, but since it's soldered...
• It can get quite loud under CPU-intensive loads

The way I currently work is that I run all resource-intensive workloads on my desktop machine, which is running Linux, through SSH. My desktop is a SFFPC hooked up to a MORA3 420, completely inaudible. However, I cannot use the desktop when I'm travelling, and if I try to run my work stuff on WSL, my old laptop is fighting for its life, with fans roaring. (My laptop is running Windows, for some workloads I NEED to use Windows due to connecting to some Azure cloud VDIs which is only possible from Windows or MacOS.)
So the way I see it, I can either buy one of those fancy M3 Macs, which would be awesome for most of my use cases (but no gaming), or I can try to find a beefy laptop, but those tend to be loud. I'm not price-sensitive, but I'm quite sensitive to fan noise.
This is how I ended up with checking out the XMG Neo 16, which seems to be able to cover all of my points, but I can find no noise measurements with/without Oasis (I don't plan on running GPU-intensive loads without Oasis). Are there any tests that actually measure the noise levels of the Neo 16 (if possible, with the 4090) under load?
I've also read this on the store page for Oasis, which got me thinking: "the water pipe is made from copper, while the rest of the liquid cooling loop (especially the radiator) is made from aluminum"
Does this mean that the pipes for the radiator are made of aluminium? Wouldn't that mess up the internals of the pipes really fast? Mixing metals in a liquid cooling loop is bad practice, for the best of my knowledge.
(also: what does the 2x Oasis option mean on the Neo's store page? Can you chain Oasis units?)

I'm fairly new to the game (13 hours). After losing around 7 characters I'm finally getting the hang of the game and I'm currently in my LONGEST playthrough yet which is day 6.
Here's whats going on: I'm in Rosewood and I've got a temporary base set up in the closest house to the fire station. After watching a bunch of videos on zombies and loot knowledge I've finally gathered the courage to kill zeds only when I absolutely need to. For days 1-5 I killed ONE single zed and almost had a panic attack while doing so. But on day 6 (9am) I found an umbrella followed by a crowbar and shakily killed 14 in one hour.
Then I built up enough courage to go to the fire station. I killed 4 zeds outside, and the bottom floor of the building was completely zed free.
HERE'S WHERE THE FCKED UP PART COMES IN. I had 1 room and the locker area left to clear upstairs. After almost getting a heart attack from a jumpscare of one zed in the bunk room, I went to the lockers and found a firefighter jacket! I was so hyped to put it on because along with the firefighter pants and hardhat I found, (literally 2 minutes ago). This was the best protection gear I've ever had in project zomboid. I quickly went to the bathroom to organize inventory. And the second I put the goddamn jacket on I hear the faint sound of the dreaded helicopter.
My heart was already racing like crazy from the most eventful 3 hours of my in game life. I immedietly quit to desktop and my hands are shaking. Like the title says I'm a total coward and the first time I manage to take a TINY step out of my comfort zone I get smacked down by the helicopter.
I'm still hiding in the bathroom tightly gripping my axe and trying not to pee in these new firefighter pants. None of the windows have covers. I'm absolutely terrified of the thought of stepping out. Will the zeds break into the fire station? Will I be swarmed? Should I be expecting them standing outside this bathroom door when I go to open it? What to I do??

Hi All,
I hope people can help me solve this issue.
While playing mindless games like WoW, Diablo, etc. I like to watch videos on my 2nd Monitor. Unfortunately, every now and again, it seems to be causing weird artifacts on my Main monitor. It usually happens like this.
I'm in Game, doing whatever I'm doing. I then go to my 2nd monitor load Netflix/YouTube/Insert Streaming Service here and start watching something. I then click back to my game and both monitors flicker as if changing resolution or input and come back quickly but now my main monitors game is artifacted and almost looks like its corrupted in some fashion (Text is illegible, certain on screen UI assets are discoloured and cannot be clicked like for example settings/menu as if I'm not clicking in the right area on screen).
To solve this I'm forced to close my game, reload it and after that it's fine, however, I should point out that my main monitor is also HDR and it goes from being "vibrant and crisp" to being "washed out and dull" until I restart my PC.
So I Checked and HDR is still ticked in the Display Settings insinuating its on, but what I see says otherwise.
I've tried the following:

• launching games in Windowed Full Screen, Full Screen, Borderless, etc.
• I've also tried using different browsers, to stream and watching them in the browsenot full screen.
• Launching one before the otheboth ways the streaming then the game and visa versa
• Reinstalling GPU Drivers, as well as back dating and updating drivers
• Turning HDR on and Off in game using the Windows Key + ALT + B Shortcut (to solve the washed out look, doesn't help)
• Cleaning my Cache and Registries

I'm slightly concerned it's my GPU getting ready to burn out. Which I REALLY hope it isn't.

First and foremost: Laptop Asus TUF Gaming A15 Amd Ryzen 7 7735HS(With integrated gpu) Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 16GB RAM Windows 10
Now to issues: -Brightness does not change when I try to regulate it: The "brightness regulating bar" appears and changes, but there's no reaction on screen, brightness stays the same. only time when it changes is when I restart PC or reinstall gpu drivers, it changes to the level that is on a brightness bar rn. -Playing games is impossible since It feels like it chooses integrated GPU, not the designated one. I tried playing TF2 and it felt awful.
I tried: -Playing around with battery settings, turning of any "save battery" settings I found. -Looked into registry using guide but didn't find anything of use, there were no things that I was looking for -restarted pc
My thoughts: I could say that it is save battery issue, or it is some software problem with main GPU. idk what to do, help
