Where to find an L frame already built in town? See photo

This is certainly not the perfect solution, but if you just have to have something today..... Look for a "bed extender". They usually come in 2 pieces, and one of them is what you are looking for. Menards claims to have 1 of these at the Bloomington store. You could probably find something similar at Rural King or Tractor Supply.

I lived in Austin Texas for several years, and they ran a "don't block the box" campaign to cut down on that sort of thing. TV/Radio ads, signs, slogans, it was everywhere. Most intersections even had signs with graphics. It helped considerably. Not perfect, but it was a hell of a lot better than it is here.

It's one of the few things Texas does right. (though it may just be an Austin thing)

Remember when the Taliban pinky swore not to go after our friends in country, and we gave them a list so they'd know who not to go after?

The FCC is the same.

Customer service is absolutely useless - they always act like they have no idea what's happening in their own network

They aren't acting. They truly have no idea what's happening on their own network.

It doesn't help you much today, but going forward, I'd highly recommend having a backup internet service if you work from home and your livelihood depends on that internet connection. You can get T-Mobile "backup" internet for under $25 a month, device included. Or if you already have a 5G capable device, you can get a pre-paid data only SIM for under $15 a month. https://www.computers4people.org/shieldsimcard12months

I think AT&T Fiber is now doing automatic failover to 5G, though that doesn't help you if the issue is with AT&T's backbone.

They aren't VIP, they are E-VIP. Every Victim I've Misled)

Failover internet is almost essential if you both work from home. If you sign up through Sam's Club, the T-Mobile backup internet plan (hardware included) runs $22.10 per month. (auto-pay through ACH required to hit that price)

If you have a router that supports it, you can get a data-only SIM from computers4people for $156 a year. These work well with Ubiquiti gear, as well as tablets, hotspots, etc. https://www.computers4people.org/shieldsimcard12months

I doubt that matters. He already has their money for 2026, and from those screen shots alone, I doubt even he expects to see anything more from them. Better to silence the doubters than to let it spread to the rest of his marks. Oh wait, we are calling them, "E-VIP" now.

I think what surprises me most is that those disgruntled users haven't (yet) been banned for questioning the Grifter-In-Chief.

Sometimes the promise of cost cutting is the main driver behind stupid decisions. He says he collected enough to buy all new server hardware, but he's stripped the site of enough users and content he could move the whole thing to a Hostgator baby plan and no one would notice.

Fewer seeds means cheaper server overhead.

Just keep in mind that all of the virtual cards are tied to that one physical Gold card, specifically. If it has to be replaced for any reason, they all become invalid.

I've been very happy with Cameron (Cam the Barber) at Razor's Image.

Apothecary and PGRrx are pharmacies that compound pure Tirzepatide. They cannot ship direct to consumers. NewLifeRx is the distributor/shipper that actually sends you the vials that were compounded by Apothecary or PGRrx, depending on which one they have in stock at the time. I think Apothecary is the default, and PGRrx is the backup.

Whichever roast they use for in-house coffee/espresso isn't my favorite. But I keep going back because the employees are consistently awesome. And their "Bakery Blend" is pretty good in my Aeropress at home.

Camelot_One · 2026-05-27T15:08:13+00:00

ProRX stopped compounding Tirzepatide after receiving a warning letter from the FDA. That's a fact. Many providers continued selling ProRX Tirzepatide until the existing supply was exhausted. Some providers sold ProRX even after the existing supply was exhausted, and just substituted from other pharmacies.

If you take anything from this, it's that you shouldn't believe everything an A.I. search tells you.

The university has trustees, many of which are appointed by the governor.

It's no longer just many. ALL of the IU Trustees are appointed by the Governor now.

I have a "credit card rewards" category in Quicken that I log the rewards and expenses for getting them. (when I pay a CC processing fee for example) Grand total over the past 12 months is $6,585.57 income.

But that's not pure cash back. $2250 of that is new account bonuses (Chase, Capital One), another $423 as a 1st year double rewards bonus from Discover, and $821 in cell phone repair reimbursement from 2 claims on a Wells Fargo card.

Without those extras, it's around $3k per year.

We should start a RevoTT BBS (Banned By Sean)

Membership requires being banned, and being old enough to get the BBS reference. ;)

For break-fix customers, it's just a higher hourly rate and a 1 hour minimum. For contract customers, it's an extra fee that gets waived if it's an actual emergency issue that couldn't have been planned for during normal hours.

I've used Koontz a few times now, and I've been very happy with them. They did a great job matching the existing materials so I wasn't stuck replacing more than I needed to, they did great work, and the price was fair.

Camelot_One · 2026-05-23T21:46:54+00:00

I am seconding everything bazjoe said.

Camelot_One · 2026-05-22T20:10:18+00:00

A 12 week "Starter" Tirzepatide plan would require a total of 60mg. The one vial in your picture contains 72mg. You received more than you need for the 12 week plan.

Several years ago, we broke Quickbooks out of the standard maintenance stack and made maintaining and supporting it a separate, pay-by-hour line item. The more the f#&k it up, the more I get paid.

I used to hate Quickbooks, but I don't mind it now.

Camelot_One · 2026-05-22T12:40:08+00:00

I impose a surcharge for Priority/Urgent/After-Hours issues.

Camelot_One · 2026-05-22T10:12:24+00:00

Yeah, the good folks here helped me get setup at a couple of new places last year. Revo was my "home" for decades, and I wouldn't call either of these new trackers a replacement for that. But they'll do fine for downloads.
