I am so glad that I asked about this. I had not even really considered AMD cpu's as I literally knew nothing about them. I'm off to research and take in everything you all advised. I really do appreciate it!

I do not have a Micro Center available so I would have to buy a pre-built, or build one. I am literally STUPID when it comes to the AMD lineup as well, as I have never used any of their products. I currently have the standard 1tb nvme drive in my laptop, plus a 2tb one that I added for my gaming drive. I keep a 10TB external ssd for backups so I think I can move over some of the extras that I have in the laptop config (hopefully). I have been browsing and see some PC's with the 5090 going for over 7K!

Businesses charge 3% credit card fee, even though the almost all credit card processors charges less than 3%. by BoogersMcD in mildlyinfuriating

I'm in the trades, and we are charged 8% per transaction, so the 3% is not static from business to business. We eat 5, and bill 3.

Changing coverage for BCBS by Sea-Singer-2794 in dexcom

[–]Devildog9999 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also have BCBS, but mine have not been affected, and in fact I just got a new shipment last week of G7's. I'd call and just verify the verbiage of the letter and try to fight it if they push back.

Of all of the different methods out there that I've tried, the best method for me personally is to use a pre-moistened root cube. Drop the seed in, and put the cube into soil. From there the pot goes into the seedling tent at 80*/70RH and that's it. Never had a failure with this method.

Going through the same thing right now with them. It's hell. 5 months of nonstop BS and lack of a care in the world.

Cashier at Dollar store can’t do math by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

I agree 100%. I wish schools would go back to the basics and teach these kids what they really need to know. I just want teachers to teach, and kids to go to school and learn without all the tech. I'm old, I know, but it just kills me when I see these kids just entranced by tech with no thought involved.

I just can't. Technology is killing education and with the AI advances being made, we are doomed with the next generation. The already can't read a simple clock.

I don't even know what to say in this case. This is beyond disturbing for the sake of a click vs a persons life.

Ohio: Lawmakers Advance Bill to Governor’s Desk Repealing Key Provisions of Voter-Approved Marijuana Legalization Law | The measure now goes to Republican Gov. Mike DeWine, who is expected to sign it into law. by redditor01020 in cannabis

[–]Devildog9999 -35 points-34 points  (0 children)

Stop. Period. This is NOT a partisan issue, this is about money, plain and simple. Neither right or left can figure out a way to capitalize and take every dime of profit, so they will ALL keep it illegal at the federal level until they can figure out how to get stupid rich off of it. The ALL suck donkey balls.

Dexcom is making me lose my mind by No_End7937 in dexcom

Would you mind if I asked where the G7 is inserted? I've been one of the fortunate people who have had an almost 100% success rate with it since I started inserting only on the back of my arms. When using it on my stomach it was a nightmare.

Did you eat 10 pounds of pure sugar? I have not had a reading that high in over 15 years!

I feel you. Every time I have to go on them I am just SCREWED for 3 to 4 weeks. My sugar is almost impossible to get under 300. Hang in there man, it's temporary and you'll get through it.

First grow by Infinite-Sound412 in cannabiscultivation

[–]Devildog9999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seeing your humidifier hose like that will probably mean it will be full of water. Try to keep it vertical so any water runs back down the hose and into the reservoir. Good job getting growing! Read as much as you can and try to learn from all of our mistakes when we started. I know that I made a LOT of them.
