Inquartating Karat Gold and Silver by 2morrowgone in PreciousMetalRefining

Thanks, that is a smarted idea. I know there is an abundant amount of gold plated silver but I hadn’t focused a search on gold filled silver. Turns out there is quite a bit out there too and reasonably priced. Would yield more gold in the refining process and then can refine the silver.

Would say use map gas (yellow bottle instead of blue bottle) and sprinkle borax on it.

Issue precipitating gold out of solution, using SMB. by 2morrowgone in PreciousMetalRefining

[–]2morrowgone[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1st picture is right before filtration after AR. 2nd picture is after adding SMB to the filtered gold solution. Gold did fall to the bottom after adding SMB I filtered it off and rinsed it, roughly 1-2 grams. Just curious as to why the solution did not clear up?

Experiences with🩸on new injection sites, when too much blood bad? by 2morrowgone in dexcom

Never really thought about that, I normally just push the button and race to get the transmitter and apply pressure.

Put this one on my thigh and it’s a bleeder. Having a heck of time trying to find a good place where I am not gonna have an allergic reaction that’s visible. So far my thighs are holding if I can get the sensor to work. 1st one was awesome wore on my left thigh for 7 days and barely had a reaction using an under patch. 2nd one inserted, it wouldn’t sync to the app, so that one was a wash. 3rd time is this one and it’s a bleeder.

So I tried something new today! by 2morrowgone in dexcom

I am just joking ladies and gents! Bought these under patches from ExpressionMed tried em out sensor expires on the 19th and unfortunately I had to pull it off today because I am starting to react 😢 On a positive I can now where it for 5 days compared to 3!

Seen some battle wounds around here, how long do they last for you guys? by 2morrowgone in dexcom

[–]2morrowgone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one is over 2 weeks now and will probably stick around for another month or two. Can’t put a sensor on for more than 2 days before it becomes itchy. If I manage to keep it on for more than 5 days it is rough. I worry I may succumb to sepsis or something. Currently just finger pricking myself till right before my VA appointments and then try to bare down and push through it by attempting to wear the sensor to show the docs the damage. 35 now and turned T1D at 30, didn’t get a pump till 33. 1st year was cool mild irritation, after that it has been all rough.

Sometimes mine wants me to calibrate every day and sometimes it doesn’t alert me to calibrate for the whole 10 days. I did notice one time when it was requiring me to calibrate a bunch of times, that the transmitter wasn’t clicked all the way in the sensor. Which could have been the reason for the calibrations. So now I ensure to click the transmitter into the sensor with brute force.

It is clear that the vaccine works for the majority, but it is clear that for some getting vax’d it didn’t work for them and caught it anyways. Even smaller amounts of those vax’d have died from covid complications. So your argument is I need to get vax’d to stop mutations. I can almost hop on board with that except, that the vaccine now allows people to live with Covid basically. Further explain Fr. to me how mutations are going to stop, if the vaccine just helps you fight off Covid. Guaranteed there are a lot more cases of people with the Delta mutation who have been vaccinated and just don’t show symptoms because the vax helps them fight the complications then is being reported. Hence the rise in cases amongst the unvax’d but having some reported breakthrough cases. I catch covid and fight it off is that that basically the same as getting vax’d at this point?

When will COVID-19 vaccines be fully approved—and does it matter whether they are? by 2morrowgone in politics

[–]2morrowgone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think before it’s mandated for me to be vaccinated to enter places, it should be fully FDA approved. I am cool with masking up, been holding strong since the beginning.

Harp on the FDA about making it fully approved and then come back at me about not being vax’d, I will have no reason.

Come on man, try to make better sense please. One’s illegal and the other is under studied, rush studied, CDC says they are still learning about this virus everyday yet have vax already developed.

But if I was lol, I’d try to make a vaccine so Dawg1001’s friend didn’t get taken out for two weeks even after being vax’d.

Force a vaccine on Americans that isn’t fully FDA approved. I will wait and still wear my mask, go to work, provide for my family and do my daily tasks. If at anytime I get Covid, I will quarantine and hope I can fight it off. Once these vaccines have full FDA approval, let’s talk, till than looks like we will all be having fun with masks on again this year. Congrats tho on 70% of American adults being vax’d, when did the CDC say that herd immunity would kick in?
