@godfather same ol' crap. I'm regurgitating instead of prolapsed now, and I'm under a ton of stress so it's been messing me up. My face has been pretty painful as well where my plates are holding my face together. But I'm doing ok :) I'll live, like I said....
https://help.twitch.tv/customer/en/portal/topics/925393-beginner-broadcasting/articles I fiddled with OBS a little last year, but have only basic knowledge of it. I may be able to answer some questions about streaming and twitch. But, I'm almost less than a noob since I've never actually streamed. You can set OBS to record a broadcast without it going live on twitch to try to get your mic, game sound, and cam set up correctly. Then you can go back to review how well it worked. A lot of new streamers start without the cam to focus on getting the game and sound broadcast portion ironed out first. I know you have a great cam, but a number of streamers have commented that a good mic is more important than the cam when starting out. If viewers can't hear you or the game sound or music drowns out the streamer, they tend to go away, especially now that the mobile app has an 'audio only' option so people don't eat up their data watching streams.
Thanks! The anesthesia was amazing!!! I think I was dreaming about Fallout 4 and had a sense of euphoria coming out of it. I had to stifle giggles the first couple of minutes after I woke up. The rest of it wasn't as bad as everyone made it sound, but not exactly fun. Was roughly two hours of 'no fun' after each dose of the prep stuff, but I didn't have to get up in the middle of the night for anything. They are apparently just a couple years away from having the cleanse available in a pill form or virtually tasteless additive that can be put in a beverage or watery food, like soup or ramen.
