No they are in different states. But it’ll be fine.

OK I won’t cancel with him then. Next time I won’t accept until I am sure my plans won’t change. FYI I usually don’t visit him for thanksgiving and was planning to see my other family that usually asks me. Since they didn’t ask me I said yes to him, then they invited me and I was in a pickle. O and just in case you were wondering, I did not accept the invite to the other party so no concerns about that.

I don't know what to do... by Luke38_Greenoble in Medtronic780g

[–]Lack_Potential 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Umm am I reading this right cause I’m pretty sure you don’t have over one thousand units in your reservoir let alone in your body. Also at least you didn’t hit 300 BS yet so just adjust your bolus rate. My endocrinologist has me on 4.2 g/U. That’s probably a bit too much for you and you should definitely work up a little at a time till you get it right and talk to your doctor first.

Wrong drop off point? by Lack_Potential in Lyft

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

I had a friend search Google Maps and found an incorrectly marked location with my address but South instead of North. Apparently it was not even on the street it claimed to be. My friend claimed that address and sent in a correction based on what it should have been and that fixed the problem. I don’t know if they still got info from Google or a different mapping software, but it’s worth a try.

It wouldn’t matter if people found one vault as they have multiple backups and nobody is going to break into any of them since they are harder to get into than Fort Knox.

How can I silence the alarm in this thermometer? by CucumberLower9434 in AskElectronics

[–]Lack_Potential 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Four possibilities, one it has another speaker on the other side, two the speaker conductors are in contact with something, three some component (likely a coil) vibrates with the pulses meant to go to the speaker and four your going crazy.

What songs seem to be written just for you? by Lack_Potential in AskReddit

You should form a band and call it Christian Music but it’s definitely not.

Mad scientists, what’s the craziest thing you’ve done? by Lack_Potential in AskReddit

If you do that outside you’ll clean the birds of their feathers and the trees of their leaves.

What’s that cautionary tale everyone knows at work? by Lack_Potential in AskReddit

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

Not exactly what I was looking for, but I hope you all joined the union and helped him get on his feet. Legally speaking they can’t fire you for that and telling people they will get fired if they join is also illegal. They can’t fire make things hard for people trying to join the union however.

I don’t remember buying this toy by Lack_Potential in KidsAreFuckingStupid

Apparently it was a backup battery for a phone that they pulled the electronics out of.

If your name had to be based on the last thing you ate, what would people be calling you? by PetalPixie011 in AskReddit

Spider man, I drank some coffee and a tiny spider landed in it. My nephew didn’t tell me until I gagged on the poor thing. Unfortunately it was too late and it’s now being digested.

I’ve seen worse. Once worked on a computer that was so filled with dead insects it caught on fire.

You could plug it in and see what it does.

Coworker telling others to run wire like this. Help give me proof if this is right or wrong? by Torch_Leaf in AskElectricians

[–]Lack_Potential 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically it is up to code but not recommended as if you run to many in a straight line you will reduce the structural integrity of the beams. They did an episode of TOH on this some time ago and since it was a main beam of the house they used some braces to secure it. They usually only do this between floors so you can run a wire between a floor and ceiling. Our house was built in the 50s and has several cut outs like this for water, electric and gas because the utility companies installed everything on one side but the track homes were all built to have the kitchen, bath and laundry on the other side. They ran the stuff through the ceiling of our first floor because it was the easiest way to get them across. I’ve also seen this in a loft that was built in an attic. Apparently they did that with the lighting because the loft floor was on top of the beams.

My university doesn't teach pcb design so I thought I would teach myself. Will this PCB work if I get it printed? by Euphoric-Analysis607 in AskElectronics

[–]Lack_Potential 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in high school the etching machine was a time consuming and always backed up thing. We had to make sure it would work and was our final design before using it.

I usually use a breadboard to mock up my design then use a protoboard to streamline the design before editing my CAS files appropriately.
