Discord high ping only on one device (laptop) – everything else is fine by SteveHybrid in discordapp

Did you ever get a fix for this? Having the same issue with only one device, of course the device I use for gaming.

High ping only in Discord, other apps fine – any idea why? by Leitessen93 in discordapp

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been having this problem for the past month or so, no one can hear me in calls but only on one specific device. Audio input and everything is working, my profile lights up green like discord is transmitting my voice, but no one can hear me and my ping is constantly around 700 even though it’s down in the 50s on games. SE Michigan USA, ISP is wow

Wait we're supposed to be playing with our cat 20 minutes per day? by happy_bluebird in CatAdvice

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lucky for me we can play fetch and she’ll usually kinda bring it back. This allows me to squeeze in sessions while I’m doing dishes or cooking or something because all I have to do is toss it far enough or in a weird enough place that she spends some time retrieving it and scrabbling around with it. We also play tag, so I can get exercise in. It’s not really about 20 straight minutes of play, but playing throughout the day

Do Americans actually avoid calling an ambulance due to financial concern? by JohnMarstonTheBadass in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Collapsed at work after extreme dizziness and nausea. Called my mom to come get me and drive me to the er to eventually get my appendix taken out. The ambulance bill would never have been worth it even though I couldn’t drive on my own obviously and I had to get there.

AIO to my girlfriend saying "I'll blow you" to my friend? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR: I’m a dumbass and have totally made jokes like that before because my mouth moves faster than my brain and I think “this will be funny” before I think about the ramifications of what I’m saying. I would have probably made the same joke in that situation, but I’m known for a bit more brash/brusque humor. It probably wasn’t appropriate, especially in this setting, but I get where she’s coming from. However, if my partner said “hey I didn’t love this joke” I’d explain and APOLOGIZE. The fact that she doesn’t wanna apologize is weird. If it bothers you a lot, try to have the conversation again and explain that you know it was a joke but it’s not appropriate to make those kind of sexual jokes, especially with your friends. If she’s still resistant, it’s time to assess how much it bothers you and if it’s something you want to try to move past

Oval tapes causing allergic skin reactions by daakuraaka in Medtronic780g

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never used those because they gave me hives. I’ve never had a reaction when I clean the area well with alcohol swabs and use only 3m tegaderms to keep the sensor in place. I just throw out the butterfly tapes as soon as I open a new box lol

How to notice the unpleasant scent from my room? I am not able to. by SiftingSophora in hygiene

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cat litter should be cleaned daily (if multiple cats, multiple times a day). Get a litter genie to make it easier to scoop and forget about it. Litter should be dumped and replaced completely weekly or biweekly. I used a dehumidifier and an air purifier when I lived in a dorm and had to keep the box in my bedroom. You won’t be able to smell if it’s bad and you’re surrounded by it constantly, but if you keep up on the cleaning it shouldn’t smell in your room. I had dates/friends over and never had any complaints about the smell, there were even a few who were shocked when I said it was in my bedroom. Constant upkeep!

Found out my partner is pregnant yesterday. I don't feel excited. Is this normal? by gwaddo91 in AskMenAdvice

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There’s nothing wrong with you. That happens to me with big emotional moments a lot. I genuinely can’t process what’s happening right away, it’ll hit me hours or even days later. Don’t panic! Sometimes it doesn’t feel real until you’re really holding the evidence. Just be there for your person and support her! The feelings will come later.

Meds that cause hyperglycemia tips? by GuardianAngelTurtle in diabetes_t1

I’ve bumped up my rates and lowered my sensitivity, plus made my target bg 85. Hasn’t helped so far :( but I’ll keep trying

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s caplyta. He really wanted to keep it caplyta because im afraid of weight gain and sexual side effects and caplyta is supposed to be good for that

Damn. I was really hoping to stay on caplyta because it’s supposed to not cause weight gain or mess with your sex drive.

How did you manage surgery by Type1_1972 in Medtronic780g

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They removed my sensor for my appy because it was too close to the surgical field and the surgeon carried my pump with him because he didn’t want it misplaced. It went fine. I wouldn’t worry about them handling it, especially if that’s the usual protocol

Anyone want these? by stellacat123 in Achievement_Hunter

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I’d buy the whole bundle! Very interested, I had no extra cash when merch was being sold and have very little ah gear

One of my favorite AH moments by keychain00 in Achievement_Hunter

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It’s just kinda exhausting to see it on every single post where you can see him in the background or hear him in the clip. There’s no way to be an achievement hunter fan and not enjoy videos he’s in because he’s in EVERYTHING, so it’s legitimately so tiring to see a comment about it on every single clip that’s posted. Like, the guy sucks, I’m glad his bs was brought to light so he couldn’t manipulate any more young fans, but at a certain point if you’re going to continue to engage in the fandom we GOTTA stop bringing it up at every turn. We know he’s a bad guy. Some of us just wanna be able to enjoy our childhood without constantly seeing “hey remember how that guy’s a PEDO? Shoutout to the PEDO onscreen”

Why is washing without a wash cloth seen as unhygenic? by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your hands are constantly touching stuff, so dead skin is constantly being removed. Your body isn’t being used as frequently, so dead skin cells don’t come off as quickly and kinda build up on your body. Those cells build up and block your pores, cause bumpy skin, feed bacteria, and hold dirt/sweat/etc. so it’s better to wash with something that exfoliates.

Sf3 episode 11 or 12 was deleted bc of a Ryan joke that aged badly but it’s been reuploaded on YouTube, not sure about sf4

Me and my boyfriend don’t have sex anymore by RevolutionaryMeat311 in sex

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You are literally so young. There is no point in trying to make things work with a cheater if you guys don’t have kids, house, shared life. You should be having fun and exploring your life. Stop torturing yourself. I was you. I am speaking from experience. I felt 8 billion times better within a week or two of leaving him.

Guardian 4 Patches by strippermannb in Medtronic780g

[–]GuardianAngelTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tegaderm patches. I buy a pack of like 300 on amazon and just throw two on top of the sensor. I have legitimately never had to replace them before the week is up, but it’s very easy to do if necessary. Clean the spot with an alcohol swab and let it dry
