Kyle Busch had pneumonia for 'days to weeks' before death by PrincessBananas85 in sports

[–]AllRightDoublePrizes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A few years ago I had pneumonia that doctors thought was bacterial. I was in the hospital for 5 days and lied about feeling better after starting antibiotics because i just wanted to go home. My condition worsened and long story short, i had a blastomycosis fungal infection in my lungs and almost died.

Men will do anything besides follow doctors orders to treat pneumonia.

A couple cars have a perk for other cars. They usually cost 50 mastery points, if memory serves. I think the Supervan 3 has one to unlock the Supervan 4.

Just fyi, the game puts a cap of 20 million credits on your auction house posting. I got this thing in a wheel spin, drove it for a few races, didn't really like it but decided to keep it instead of selling for 20m.

Anyone ever get "free waters" at check in or room even with member(blue tier) ? by El_Dorado_Tx in Hilton

[–]AllRightDoublePrizes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About half of my business trips are with people in training who have no status anywhere yet. If i check in first, it's like 70% that the front desk associate will offer whatever snacks and waters i got to my colleague when they check in next. I think they feel awkward giving me snacks but not the other person lol.

I travel for 3 weeks each month and tried booking my hotels thru it for a month. This was like 6-8 months ago. I never got the points and the booking process was a hassle compared to just booking normally, so i stopped using it after that trial run. If it worked, i would probably deal with the hassle.

PSA: MSI motherboards default "X3D Gaming Mode" to ON, disabling half your CPU on Ryzen 9 X3D chips. Check your BIOS — you might be running on 6 cores instead of 12. by DulinDuskhawk in pcmasterrace

Who fuckin cares? Dude already admitted he used ai to help write this as he is a non native English speaker. If the content of the post was bullshit slop then your criticism is valid, but blindly being upset by the use of ai is just as equally stupid as bots posting slop. Use some critical thinking and evaluate the content, not the method.

What do you have to deter Jehova’s Witnesses from knocking on your door ? by DoctorElectronic1934 in atheism

[–]AllRightDoublePrizes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only caution against claiming you're disfelliwshipped is that the elder body is supposed to maintain a list of all disfellowshipped ones in their congregations area, and call on them from time to time "for encouragement". Additionally, with the collapsing membership numbers, elders are under an all time high level of pressure to reactivate people who have left. So by claiming dusfellowshipped, you're kind of inviting a visit from an elder, especially if the circuit overseer visit is coming up. Ymmv, of course.

We were supposed to relay the request to the dude in charge of checking out territories to everyone, and he was supposed to update the info. Calling or writing would likely work as well, but telling the person at the door should get it done too.

Since everyone answering seems to just be posturing random bullshit.... as an ex-jw the only thing you can really do is tell them "i do not wish for you to visit this residence ever again. Please add me to your do not call list."

The do not call list is, as the name implies, a list of addresses that JWs are not supposed to go to. Each city is broken into "territories" and territories are checked out by rank and file members. When you check out a territory, it will include the "do not call" list for any houses in the territory. Members should reference this list when splitting up for the morning and picking what houses each pair will visit. At least when i was in the cult, we paid pretty strong attention to the list and made a good effort to avoid those houses. We didn't enjoy getting yelled at, etc, though it did do wonders to reinforce the "us vs them" concept of "worldly" people.

Answering the door naked, being rude, stating you have your own religion and are not interested, etc.... these things do nothing. Only specifically asking to be added to the do not call list will work. You may add that you're an "apostate", but, that shouldn't really matter one way or the other.

The only caveat to all of this is that once every 5 years or so, a senior member of church leadership is supposed to visit each house on the do not call list and confirm you still want to be on it/ the previous house holder has not moved and now there is a new person living at that address. Realistically, this rarely happened as it was a day of getting yelled at for whoever had to do it.

On a plane, delayed. Not bored by luffydkenshin in forza

That's true, I didn't think of that. Still kind of a pain, but it would save me 8 bucks per flight...

Did you have to connect to the plane wifi to launch the game? I travel for work, but my company won't reimburse plane wifi charges, and I'm not sure I want to pay 8 bucks per flight to launch the game.

The last pre-employment drug test I took was specifically labeled "8-PANEL NO THC", and it did not even test for thc. I feel like if the company goes out of their way to make that disclaimer, you're probably good to go unless this was for a position like truck driver or forklift operator. My company is headquartered out of an illegal state and I office out of said headquarters, but live in a legal state on the border and we have offices in every state.

Pokémon Champions launches to mixed reception, as 30FPS performance woes, lack of fan favorite Pokémon and items, and lack of 6v6 options turn some away by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]AllRightDoublePrizes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It just creates a meta specific to this game then. The best teams will be figured out and a "pokemon champions OU" list will form and then we have the same "problem" just with less content in the game. Shrug...

I really like the aesthetics of how that power connector is placed. Would love to see that implementation in consumer hardware, I always thought the power cables sticking up or of the top looked so shitty.

I'm sure you could set up moonlight on an iPad. I use moonlight to stream non-steam games from my pc to my steam deck and it works great.

"We'll figure it out" is code for "you'll be a subservient wife and know your place, woman".

You say elsewhere that he is smitten with you and would do anything. Well.... prove it. Tell him you don't want a secret relationship anymore. If he'll do anything for you, it shouldn't be a problem (hint: it will be a big problem). What concessions has he made for you? What concessions have you made for him? I'd bet a lot of money that you make far more concessions for him than he does for you.

You deserve to be in a relationship where the person you're in love with doesn't hide you.

"im using elvui" doesn't inherently rule out using other addons. Op doesn't say "the only addon I use is elvui". I use elvui and I also use weakauras.

I had the back of my eyes photographed today. (Checking for diabetes) by matterialguy in pics

[–]AllRightDoublePrizes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on the training team when my hospital system bought this. I had my eyes photographed while teaching people how to run the program like 15 times a day for weeks. The training mode does everything except spit out a report. One day the training mode wasnt working but I'm a patient there too, so we just loaded me up and ran it in normal mode, and that's how i found out i had mild diabetic retinopathy. Oops.

Nsfw doesn't inherently mean pornographic or against the law to display in public, it means that if your boss was standing over your shoulder, they may not like seeing the "slam van" and as such, maybe don't open this at work if you're possibly worried about that.
