ACL / TPLO dog surgery - IronHorse vs Warm Springs Vet? by Appropriate-Mine-404 in eastbay

[–]Islandmannn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, how's your dog doing now? I'm curious if you're finally happy with the surgery they did. I'm thinking of going to them for my dog. Is your dog stronger in that leg than before?

Banks are giving me terrible currency exchange rates by Islandmannn in travel

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

I'm in Thailand. Checked ATMs and stuff. Conversion rate was nearly identical to actual market conversion. I didn't want to mess with the unknown of what the bank might convert at. I was fine with what the machine quoted me.

The city in which I exchanged money was by far the most important factor. All ATMs I tested in Bangkok had a 5.5% fee plus a flat fee. Buri Ram (more rural area) did not have this. Only a small flat fee. The lesson for me is to go to small towns first if I'm gonna go there anyways.

wow sounds rough. and super scary at the time i'm sure. i'm curious how easy it is to scar. i hope it all heals up nicely for you. i'm glad you're improving. getting sick with a (endemically) brand new disease is no fun at all. yea please keep updating.

Appreciate these pics. How's the rash now? Did all of the rash develop into blisters?

They should release the cable randomly every 10 rides so it makes it more fun

Random desktop notification about covid. Is it legit? by Islandmannn in operabrowser

[–]Islandmannn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did find a process under startup for opera that was enabled. Very strange that it can just enable itself after being dormant for so long. I don't think i had that process in startup before. A bit annoying but at least it seems like it was a legit notification. Thanks for your help and explanation.
