There’s a pile of them.

An ear infection that either was staph or turned into it, requiring an ear to be reconstructed, a new ear drum, ear canal reconstruction, and the mastoid bone removed. There was a very real concern from the doctors that it was going to get into my brain. They cut my ear off of the side of my head, did the work, then sewed it back on. 10/10 for the doctors that did the treatment and fixed it all. -1000/10 for the different unrelated doctor that let the infection get that bad.

A 4mm kidney stone making its way out.

An ear infection (same ear as above) where the ear canal swelled shut, and the ENT and his staff held me down in his office on a table to force a wick into it to make the meds able to get into it.

Even though it was 30 years ago, the ear infection (prior to the reconstruction) is what I remember most vividly.

I left after they banned Apollo and other apps, but it’s a mess when it shows up in my search results nowadays with the unstoppable app prompt on mobile. I’d I accidentally click a Reddit link while searching, it’s an automatic back for me. They treat their users terribly.

While I agree with the anti Oracle sentiment, that’s 21,000 employees that didn’t say they wanted AI BS. The suits and ceos that do this aren’t the ones that pay the price. It’s always the ordinary people like you and I.

Alabama guy here. So disappointed in my state. I’ve been pushing for Doug Jones, but I keep getting, “I don’t like Doug Jones!” He’s better than an ignorant washed up Florida man half ass football coach. I’ve not heard the sack of nails before. I’ve heard box of rocks bag of hammers. Gonna keep it and add it to my repertoire.

Yeah, I played Crisis Core, VII-IX and GoW on mine a lot. I may have even had a Jax and Dexter on it? I can’t remember. It was wild to me that I could play my final fantasy games on it.

Good news, you’ve not missed anything. It’s a shit app for the id4 at least.

Thank you. Always get those wrong.

I’m there with you, only difference is my house has tongue in groove wooden interior walls.

For fellow whovians, not Doctor Who, rather Doctor Proton, aka the Doctor Who Cloned Me.

I got excited and thought that’s a weird crossover. Turns out, I’m just simple.

It shouldn’t be a crime to send my child to a better school system than I can afford to live in.

I live in a poor area of Alabama, I’d give almost anything to be able to pack my shit and get my children to a better school district.

Man I was looking at one of the Bambus to supplement my old Monoprice Maker Select. I was hoping to something with less fuss.

Ditto. My homemade Mac mini file server just bit me with an APFS drive corruption. Needing to get something put together with redundancy. Like NOW! and these shit heads are killing the market!

Apple’s APFS I am not a fan of. I have been using Macs since 2008-ish. In all my HFS+ days, I’ve never lost an entire drive. I rebooted my M2 Mac Mini via command prompt, and my external APFS drive is corrupted. Never had that problem before APFS. And since I’m an idiot, I’ve got to pay DiskDrill to hopefully recover the data when I get a larger drive on hand.

I’m waiting for it to get the id.Buzz. I want one of them badly. Can’t wait!

The wife and I love her Volkswagen id4. It is comfy, gets good mileage, and is cheap on the used market.

Not to discourage you, and I’m not sure if LORA you’re referring to is LORA-WAN that we were implementing at my employer, but we abandoned it for cost and manufacturer support (firmware support issues).

Ditto. Love my Kobo Clara. My wife spent a week in the hospital, and while killing time, I read using my kobo. I didn’t have to charge it the entire week.

Bought it yesterday. Been enjoying it so far. What settings are you guys running and how’s battery life? I suspect battery problems on my deck, I got MAYBE 20 minutes out of it before it shut down in my second mission.

I upgraded from a mid 2012 13” MBP upgraded to within an inch of its life to an m3 Air 15”. I’ve loved my old mbp for years, but the increased size of the 15” display makes it better for me. My vision continues to worsen and I’m not getting any younger. The thinness of this machine makes up for the slightly bigger bulk from the larger screen to me, at least compared to my 2012 model. And the weight is ridiculously better.
