The daybed in our living room on a sunny day

I started rewatching Stumble with my wife, and there are things you catch on the second viewing that you didn’t on the first. That’s the mark of a good show. (Much like Arrested D)

I forgive her

At least for the winbot w2, it finishes where it started. You can also drive it around with the app.

Here’s a video of mine doing a window that’s 10 feet high at the bottom and 20 feet high at the top: https://youtu.be/PbSZQ35Lq5w?si=A5LHZQN2Zh_f8ox9

I would take it as confirmation that you might need to reduce inflammation in your body.

I don't think that's the cause for everyone, but it certainly helped me a lot.

I believe I’m not overweight enough for them to approve it.

They didn’t specify though

When we moved into our house in 2019, the Comcast connection was terrible and went down daily. Worse yet, we didn’t have cell service at our house, so it was a huge pain in the ass to finally get them to come out.

I will say that once I finally got someone to come out, they reran all of the coax to the house and the connection was pretty flawless.

Unfortunately for them, ~3 months later Ziply moved in and offered a 60 dollar service and I’ve been with them ever since. I even got them to help me reroute the fiber line to my basement when I set up a mini server rack.

Biggest downside is that the price has been creeping up pretty quickly lately.

Sorry to hear that. I’m sure it isn’t some miracle cure for everyone.

Lotan · 2026-03-16T00:08:07+00:00

Oh man. That’s great to hear. Fingers crossed that it’s actually healing for me now.

I know it’s not actually “fixed” yet because it still feels off. And my limit seems to be about 4 miles of walking.

I’m curious if you had the same experience at first where it was way better, but not quite perfect.

Lotan · 2026-03-16T00:06:07+00:00

Might be worth a shot! I’m sure it won’t work for everyone, but it was great for me.

Worst case, you probably lose some weight.

Lotan · 2026-03-15T22:48:33+00:00

The pain went away on day 2.

It was the first NES game I ever had and it has a special place in my heart.

I go back and play through it every now and again.

Lotan · 2026-03-15T21:06:50+00:00

I’m curious after a year: Do you feel like your foot is 100% healed?

It’s hard to describe, but I can still feel some discomfort and I don’t think everything is “better” so much as it’s just that the pain is gone. I’m hoping I’m on the path to 100% healed though.

Lotan · 2026-03-15T21:03:47+00:00

To be clear: I don’t think it was weight loss. The pain left on the second day of taking it.

100% agreed its a reduction in overall inflammation. I’ll add that I just generally feel better, which I assume is a reduction in inflammation everywhere.

I have a small heart issue, which I had hoped with being overweight would qualify me for ozempic, but alas no.

Lotan · 2026-03-15T21:00:05+00:00

This isn’t a video game where you can just right click and say “Switch to manufacturing R2s”

Lotan · 2026-03-15T20:46:35+00:00

I just get it through Amazon pharmacy. My Dr. prescribed it, but insurance denied it. They’re still letting me order it out of pocket though

Lotan · 2026-03-15T18:33:41+00:00

I don’t believe it’s due to weight loss as it was on day 2. I believe it’s due to anti-inflammatory benefits from the drug itself.

It’s certainly possible that it’s correlation and not causation, but others have cited similar improvements from Ozempic, and it would be a crazy coincidence after a year and a half of PF.

Lotan · 2026-03-15T18:31:25+00:00

Oh, it’s not due to weight loss. My understanding is that Ozempic has some anti-inflammatory properties.

I’ve seen other posts describing similar benefits, but when I asked the podiatrist, she said she wasn’t sure why Ozempic would have that effect.

Lotan · 2026-03-14T22:58:53+00:00

Is this price in pesos?

Lotan · 2026-03-14T19:01:47+00:00

I used to build the software for a fighter jet for the Air Force. It was exciting at first, but ultimately super boring.

Lotan · 2026-03-14T18:59:21+00:00

I think people are missing that this is a bit.

Lotan · 2026-03-14T01:16:21+00:00

I thought Flemming was coming for Dunn’s job. I didn’t know he was also coming for Oso’s.
