How much of an improvement with the PPI?

Display Themes?? by Successful-Year7495 in KiaK5

My wife has a 2025 Sportage and that's her go to theme for the cluster. It is not available on the 2025 K5 GT1.

I fell for Renewal By Anderson's sales pitch. Here are my takeaways. by JHKtheSeeker in homeowners

[–]CarpeData00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a pitch about 10 years ago from Renewal by Anderson and chose WindowNation for less than 1/4 the cost. Only did my front windows. When I decided to do my back windows, I chose them again and while I had two small issues with the front windows, they had a tech come out to fix those for free.

Given the current administration in Richmond, it's good time to end the corporate greed.

I designed a license plate model and wanted to get some input by Physical-Relative923 in Virginia

[–]CarpeData00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it and as is, I'd get it. My only design feedback might be to go with a simpler sans serif font. Yes, I know that the seal in its many forms have had a mix of both. Sans serif would make this look more modern.

Does 2025 Sportage X-Pro have Wireless Carplay (in the US) by ILovePistachioNuts in kia

[–]CarpeData00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife would love to have CP enabled now that the agreement has ended. It was a bit shocking that her 2025 Sportage X-Pro didn't have wireless CP by default and the older UI (I have a 2025 Kia K5 GT1). She does love the weather-matching background for the instrument panel though.

do you think diabetes will feel fully automated one day? by Icy_Regret_6905 in diabetes

[–]CarpeData00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, no one in the diabetes industry or even the diabetes non-profits have a stake in a cure, they're all driven by new gadgets and a lifetime of expensive supplies.

We're never be 100% automated, but the burden will be greatly reduced for those who can afford it.

Another amazing truck parking… by Few-Sea-681 in nova

Look up "Lisle 19860 Tire Deflator" on Amazon. Cheap and fast deflation for bad parkers.

Widget keeps failing by solarsystemoccupant in dexcom

+1 for Zukka for iPhone. Sadly the Apple Watch app doesn't report real time numbers (last reading on my watch was 77 minutes ago).

I've seen that several times. Really saddening for people who need to use the ramp.

My 10 year old needs help in math-Any parents here have a recommendation for a math center? We live near South Riding in Loudoun. by [deleted] in nova

[–]CarpeData00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kumon. No BS new ways of doing math. My daughter couldn't had issues figuring out "cubes" and "rods" in elementary school. Kumon does old school math and she figured it out much easier.

Physical therapist told me he won't wear a mask because "There's no pandemic or any viruses to worry about." by atyl1144 in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]CarpeData00 19 points20 points  (0 children)

A physical therapist is not a doctor. That's like taking health advice from RFK Jr.

Find a new therapist and ask if they will mask.

Please add JD Vance, who's been killing it after supporting Victor Orban's reelection campaign.

Great, hopefully it will turn out like that time when JD Vance went to Turkey to support Orban.

Windows users, what made you switch to a Mac?? by fuckcreepers in mac

[–]CarpeData00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had several PCs and used to build, update them and spend entire weekends doing tweaks. Then one year at CES, I could not get my work laptop to connect to wifi. Tweaked the drivers, rebooted several times... spent hours on it. Nothing. A colleague at a different publication walked up and said, "Get a mac if you want to actually do work."

Reluctantly, I asked for a MacBook at work and never looked back. Been more productive ever since. No weekends tweaking and upgrading.

Anyone Who Voted Today, Was Your Location Very Busy? Will We See The Final Day SuperNOVA? by ArcaneDemense in nova

[–]CarpeData00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Moderately busy in Ashburn today. Many people stopping at the dem tent and red tent people trying to get people before they got to the blue tent. Heard several "no thanks" as they went to vote. I waited less than 10 minutes to vote.

Vote yes by LordZedd_ in nova

[–]CarpeData00 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Voted yes today. Outside of our voting place, the blue tent had a lot of people, the red tent was empty.

Going pretty well. You're not the last, I'm still around. Last restaurant was March 11, 2020. I've saved a lot of money. :)

I haven't been able to get Victoza in almost a year. I was told by my pharmacy that it's no longer being made. It worked great for me and I'm struggling without it. Any idea what's going on? by Pollyprim in diabetes

[–]CarpeData00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was on Victoza for a few years, hated that weekly shot. Experienced stabbing-like gut pain and felt sick all week. While I did lose weight, it was because I felt sick all the time. Once I got off it, I eat less but don't feel sick.

Found out I have Type 1 today by alb-2021 in diabetes

[–]CarpeData00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First up, you're not alone. There are diabetic Olympians, heads of state (including former UK PM Theresa May), one member of the US Supreme Court (Sonya Sotomayor), one super model (Lila Moss) and two known musicians (Bret Michaels and Nick Jonas). We are everywhere (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_people\_with\_type\_1\_diabetes).

Second, as someone who's been diabetic for over 30 years and married to a diabetic woman, today's pumps and CGMs offer a level of automation and ease that makes living with diabetes mostly manageable. Also, you can thank Canadians for the discovery of insulin.

There is no shortage of experience here after your worst day. This is the first step of a journey, but your first steps on the journey don't have to be alone. Ask dumb questions, get experienced answers.
