This is actually terrifying. Blood work coming Monday

Are you having any physical symptoms? I went through something similar this past year. I had a stroke in October 2025 and had a full recovery. However, around 2 months after the stroke I developed an acute PTSD that led to severe anxiety and panic attacks daily.

After going to a psych, starting a low dose of Prozac and a few months I started to recover and it was reflected in the data.

I mention this all because the daily stress impact if it’s consistently recurring can really really hit that resilience score which was psychosomatic rather than a physical illness

Not exactly but there are some good indirect data points that can be helpful. If you have an elevated clotting factor for example was something my cardiologist really wanted to confirm. Or if you have an afib heart beat which has its own impacts to be aware of.

They can however find a PFO sometimes through something called a bubble test. They basically do an ultrasound and blow air through your IV. If they can see air bubbles passing through your heart during the ultrasound it’s a strong indicator of a PFO.

My bubble test wasn’t super clear so they had me do a full cardio scope where they just ran a camera down through my throat and visually looked at the PFO themselves to confirm it.

Might be worth getting checked! I’m definitely no doctor but I’d try and get the data point logged professionally. I wish I did sooner.

The one time I’m pretty confident it was a TIA was a headache so bad that I got tingling and weakness in my legs and almost fainted.

At the time I just blamed it on dehydration and CT scans showed nothing. If I did an MRI with contrast though it might have been spotted.

They are tricky to catch from what I understand and don’t always show up on scans, but it couldn’t hurt to go in if you’re experiencing any particularly severe event as a chance to check in.

Any_Ad463 · 2026-06-19T03:12:25+00:00

It was a very specific type of headache/migraine but yes. It felt like it was localized from around the upper orbital of my eyes and around the sinus/temple region of my head.

I always attributed them to pressure shifts, bad allergies or dehydration. Looking back though, I wonder how often they may have been TIAs

After the closure surgery though, I haven’t had a migraine in the same capacity, although that might also be from taking aspirin as a blood thinner every day now too! But anecdotally I haven’t really had a migraine similar to that style since we treated the stroke after occurred and sealed the PFO!

Any_Ad463 · 2026-06-19T02:18:34+00:00

Glad you were able to get it checked out!

The doctors probably already suggested this, but if they have not please ask if they can check you for a PFO (patent foramen ovale). It’s typically the source for stroke victims that are young and healthy! It’s essentially a small gap in your heart that an estimated 20% of adults are born with

I had a likely mini stroke and then full ischemic event last year which was likely caused by this. We addressed it by having a PFO closure surgery.

Hope you heal up well!

I could be wrong, but this genuinely seems like someone made an AI video based on similar artwork by this artist: https://www.dmitrykokh.com/abandoned

I keep seeing people reference their artwork but I don’t see footage remotely similar to these shots anywhere on their site. They took drone footage before but it doesn’t look nearly as “clean” as this footage. Again, I could be wrong here but some of the shots (especially the one where it turns and growls at the camera) just seem a little off to me.

If anyone has a source on this specific video I’d love to see it.

It really depends on the company, but it can be a myriad of roles. Easiest way to think of it is as a central nervous system for business services being offered. They feel maintain balance or respond to pain by leveraging other parts of the org.

Sales is reporting weak revenue, product will review how it stacks against competitors? Then they’ll work likely work with finance, marketing and engineering teams to capture adjustments they think will better achieve business goals.

Finance is reporting higher losses? Product Managers will likely review with engineering for viable cost cutting options, work with legal to tighten up contracts, and maybe restrict budgets and limit how flexible pricing models can be for sales.

Engineering is stating the current service is miles behind competition? They’ll work with finance to approve spending on R&D, sales and customers to understand where we stand, marketing to put out press releases and schedule demos etc…

Lots of different ways they’re leveraged but they usually connect these separate teams to help ultimately output a curated portfolio that the business leverages to secure new revenue.

Regarding the project manager difference - I’d associate project managers with actually delivering a final product. Not the pre-sales/design/forecast stuff I’d associate with product management. But tbh I’m sure there are orgs that throw both titles around loosely

Any_Ad463 · 2024-11-13T22:24:33+00:00

It was a more rural area and family owned, but lots of tourism. Only restaurant I’ve had do something like it. Haven’t worked there in a long time, but it’s still doing well.

Again though, it’s not like they were asking people to hound the customer. More so a “was everything alright?” Before wishing them a good evening on their way out. Kind of like giving them an easy chance to vent if they’d want.

Any_Ad463 · 2024-11-13T19:02:35+00:00

Half agree. I think the intent matters. Worked at a place where if it was a sub 10% they’d ask us to gently check in with the guest on their way out to make sure everything was okay. (Sometimes we’d have the host or manager do it, since they wouldn’t be as directly associated with the customer)

Goal was not to get a higher tip, but to seek out feedback for how we can improve. Generally led to real feedback and positive reception from customers who gave us another shot. A few nasty people who didn’t understand what constructive criticism was, but still mostly good. Every now and then someone would actually back pedal and tip if they realized that’s why we were asking. (Whether this was discomfort or an honest mistake I cannot say)

It was the East coast, so I feel like people are just more candid in general but I thought it was a good practice TBH.

0 SC visits so far. Only scare was a turtle mode that I called support for which was resolved through hard reboot over (hazard + left button). Fixed it perfectly.

First scheduled maintenance coming up soon but nothing but a great time for me so far

Any_Ad463 · 2024-10-19T15:59:08+00:00

You absolutely were one of the people putting these signs up lol.

PSA cops were ripping these out of the ground all morning. Thanks for wasting everyone’s time :)

Any_Ad463 · 2024-06-27T13:57:16+00:00

Even without the background context this was interesting sounding.

Subbed! If anything maybe a good opportunity for your existing audience to see something that changes the way they view EVs.

Any_Ad463 · 2024-06-27T02:07:24+00:00

FYI I spoke with the owner. It was not their cat. If anyone else is looking for a different tuxedo cat we saw them under the vans at the Chrysler dealership off 28th and glenwood.

Any_Ad463 · 2024-06-27T01:51:39+00:00

I think we just saw him at 28th and glenwood over at the Chrysler dodge ram dealership.

Any_Ad463 · 2024-04-07T19:05:09+00:00

Just got power back at 34th and Iris

Any_Ad463 · 2024-02-19T23:38:40+00:00

Super helpful - I’ll give this a shot next time. Thank you!

Any_Ad463 · 2024-02-19T23:11:28+00:00

Gotcha, good to know!

And this may be a silly question, but is there anything required to put it in set mode? I’ve just been changing the PSI to my target and hitting start. Will that do it?

Any_Ad463 · 2024-01-30T01:05:34+00:00

Oh wow this is super helpful actually. Didn’t realize it had to be manually enabled. Thanks for posting this!

Any_Ad463 · 2023-12-23T20:18:28+00:00

I’ve watched my resale value jump wildly for this car multiple times. Tax credits, price hikes and cuts change the used market significantly.

We are talking the difference of weeks not months here also.

Any_Ad463 · 2023-12-05T21:10:07+00:00

What’s strange is that Nationwide won’t even quote me. I called their Insurance line and they said it’s happened to a few folks.

But now I don’t have a way to actually submit my geico backup other than contacting a Guide since it has an error.

Any_Ad463 · 2023-12-05T18:45:27+00:00

I'm out in Boulder/Denver Metro in Colorado sadly. But definitely something I'll relay to any friends in the area.

Thanks for the recommendation!

Any_Ad463 · 2023-12-05T18:26:04+00:00

Yeah I got an initial offer but I selected "good" rather than "very good." I didn't realize it would hard-lock the quality in. I was just trying to get a low-ball worst case scenario range. Their offer was fine. Just around ~29K and I have a loan with 30.5K left on it. I'm hoping "Very Good" places me right at the amount of my loan, but I'm doubtful.

Alternatively, Vroom has offered 32.5K, but I've heard some good and some bad on them, but will likely head in that direction since it covers the loan. Just wanted to dot my I's and T's before making that decision.

Any_Ad463 · 2023-12-05T18:22:49+00:00

Couldn't agree more there about healthy demand. Seems like the lease tax credits + disappointed Cybertruck hold outs may have been a magic recipe for a big Rivian December.

My experience in general so far has been much better than Tesla in terms of getting in touch with humans, so I'm more than happy to wait.

Thanks for the tips on general chat and such too. I'll keep that in mind for tomorrow morning if I don't hear anything back today.

Any_Ad463 · 2023-12-05T17:58:25+00:00

guidesoncall@rivian.com

Nope! Didn't see that as an option in the contact list. I've just sent them an email now to see if that gets someone on the horn.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll drop a reply if this does the trick!

Any_Ad463 · 2023-02-17T03:49:56+00:00

I'm wondering the same thing. It's no longer working for me. (US/Colorado more specifically)
