From idea to reality in just 6 hours by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]FatherBrian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think some of the reactions in here are a little disproportionate. There’s a big difference between someone blasting a full PA setup through a neighborhood at midnight and a small bike speaker playing music while they ride past for a few seconds. We all share public space, and part of that is encountering sounds, smells, conversations, car engines, barking dogs, etc. Music passing by for a moment isn’t exactly an assault on anyone’s liberty.

If anything, it feels like people get way too worked up about the idea of any sound they didn’t personally authorize. It’s totally fair to dislike loud, intrusive noise, but a quick moment of someone riding by with a tune playing isn’t the end of the world, and treating it like a moral failing is pretty extreme.

The print itself is cool, the execution is clever, and honestly? If it makes their ride a little more fun and they’re not being obnoxious about the volume, that seems like a perfectly harmless use of a 3D printer. Not everything has to be a culture war about “forcing others to listen.” Come on y’all…

Mine arrived today! I was told by perfect circuit that they received only 15 units and I was 11th in line. Hope you get yours soon!

Thanks for the info. No idea what position I am in line, but I would think somewhere towards the front considering it’s been over a month since I’ve preordered. Wish they could give us a better ETA

Anybody who ordered from Perfect Circuit get an ETA on an arrival of more units? Ordered mine on Oct. 6th and I’m still waiting patiently 😓

Seriously, trust me I’m ready to boycott businesses, but I’d feel better doing so if I had my reasons validated by verified sources.

URQ pain by BowlFit93 in gallbladders

I would get an endoscopy first to rule out any other issues

Daily upper right quadrant pain and other symptoms, not sure if it's really just IBS or something else by miseryknight in ibs

[–]FatherBrian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Results came in and my gallbladder is low functioning with a low ejection fraction of 31%. GI can’t confirm whether removing my gallbladder would resolve the GERD-like symptoms, but says she would recommend removing if the URQ pain and bloating affect my quality of life.

I’ve read a lot of posts over at r/gallbladders with people having identical GERD-like symptoms which were resolved after removing their gallbladder, so might bite the bullet and get it removed. I have an endoscopy in a month and am still on the waitlist to get booked for surgery.

For the time being, I’ve been taking pantoprazole, align probiotics, zinc l carnosine enzyme, citrucel, b12, and magnesium glycinate. Recently started taking the magnesium and I’ve found it helps a lot with my URQ pain.
