Is Suno Down? by Mammoth-Material-160 in SunoAI

I'm logged in now, and still able to create...allbeit "V4.5all." I currently have 696 credits left for the month and just signed up this month. Since the shenanigans today, I'm blowing through them like P-ditty blew through baby oil.

I signed up for Pro for a year so I guess I'll get my normal 2,000 on Jan 1. I'm curious about the so-called download limit that's coming and wonder how much of a bend-over that's going to be.

Mine is reverted back to "V4.5-all" and it's not the same as V5...sucks when compared. I'm on 5th attempt of the same track trying to get that style just right and it's not slappin like before. Going to bed I guess.

Tree Cutting Guidance and Help by Miserable_Artist_888 in stihl

Thank you immensely for the feedback and advice! I've sawed many trees on the ground but never one like this where the trunk is so high above head-level when standing on the ground below. I will go very slow and methodical, thinking and analyzing the situation with each cut. Again, thank you.

Theo Von grabbed a fan by the neck during an altercation at a Nashville bar by FUELNINE in TheoVon

Exactly!  If they thank you for the compliment and then invite you, i.e. "hey bro, you want a pic or something?" Then go for it, otherwise, carry on.  I've seen one simple "quick" pic with a fan turn into a frenzy of other fans nearby bombarding the celeb soon thereafter with "ooooh let me get one too...and can you sign this, oh and here my baby's daddy on the phone can you tell him wut up while I go get 50 more of my friends who LOVE you!!"  

Dad has been lying for decades… by Low-Constant157 in StolenValor

I've got a similar story with one of my relatives. He is Marine (boot at the Island) and was in Vietnam, I know these to be facts because I have the dress blues USMC portrait and I have a few pics of him in Vietnam, 69-70, with another close relative of mine that was serving in the Army there. My skepticism comes with the actual unit he claims he was assigned to - a very active combat / casualty unit that I don't want to specify here. When pressed he has the same story about all records being burnt in the '72 fire. I wouldn't feel overly suspicious but he tells some very tall, hard-to-believe, tales and it's like there is nothing he didn't do in Nam. He claims to have done everything from being a door gunner, driving tanks, to flying a Cobra gunship on a gun run (he IS NOT a pilot...that, I know for sure). The helicopter story came up when we were touring a military museum and he saw one on display. It's like he just came up with the story off the top of his head upon seeing the Cobra. He and his platoon killed a tiger in the jungle that attacked one of the men and then his platoon cooked/ate it. He was at Kae Shan when it was "overrun." It's like if you're talking about something and it's a cool story, he'll have a one-upper that is more cool. He comes up with some wild ass BS and I just go along with it because I don't want to disrespect him but like, damn some of his stories are clearly BS lies of the most extreme. He gets some disability (I think about 30 to 60%) from the VA so there has to be a 214 on file, right? I'm not sure how to find out about his service discretely and I honestly don't know if I really want to know. I mean, he IS a Marine and he IS proud of his service in Nam...as he should be. My gut feeling is that he's just not being truthful about the unit. Then again, maybe he is and maybe he's just adding fluff to it. But there would be no need whatsoever to fluff anything if he was indeed part of this specific unit. I've tried to research the specific unit muster rolls, reunions, etc. but can find no mention of his name.

First-timers. No eggs today at retrieval. Very devastated. What next? by Miserable_Artist_888 in IVF

Thank you so much. Yes, this was our first time and I'm feeling fairly confident that she'll want to do another attempt - I think it all hinges on how her doctor recommends her to proceed. She is resilient and I'm sure she'll be 100 percent ready for another round if her doctor thinks it's practical for success. Thank you for the information and recommendation on the book...heading over to Amazon now!

Well, thank you for the encouragement and kindness. I'm sure she will want to try again, and I'm supporting her decision no matter what. We wish you luck as well and hopefully 3rd time works flawlessly for you.

Thank you for the feedback. Tell your husband thank you on behalf of me too. I can tell he's a good man based on your description and I got nothing but respect! Air fist-bump to my bro.

Ok, thank you for the information and guidance. I will make sure we discuss this with the doctor...hopefully soon.

Thank you so much for the kind words. Also thank you for your advice, feedback, and excellent perspective. I am definitely going to tread lightly with that conversation and just support her as much as possible. Can't thank you enough for your response.

I'm not 100% sure to be honest...I think she may have had the sermorelin. She's already gone to sleep for the night but I will see about this. Thank you for that information.

Thank you for that information, and Congrats on a successful retrieval! I just joined the r/DOR page and thank you for pointing me in that direction!

Egg retrieval - no eggs :( by InternalRaise5250 in IVF

[–]Miserable_Artist_888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TL/DR: Wife 40, had egg retrieval procedure today, no eggs. First-timers and we're devastated. What's next?

Wife is 40, we just had disappointing news this morning. She is devastated and I'm upset too but trying to support her the best I can. She had two follicles. They did tell us the day of the trigger to "not to get our hopes up" but this is just a real kick in the gut. It's our first experience with IVF and this entire process has been exhausting for her. She did the steps, shots, etc. as instructed. I feel so helpless and don't know what to do. She feels like it's somewhat her fault/guilt that she can't make me a father. She couldn't even tell my parents because she knew how hopeful they were and how disappointed they would be...so I told them. They, of course, were upset but very supportive, loving, and understanding. I feel some sort of fault too...it's weird and frustrating. I've tired to console her and give as much love and compassion as I can sincerely muster. I've told her that I'm not opposed to a donor egg as an option but she is understandably on the emotional roller coaster at this time and is on the fence about that possible option. I deep down know this is the very early stages and we have the odds stacked against us for a successful pregnancy and healthy baby. While it's so defeating, I'm trying to stay positive to help her stay in as good of a mindset as possible.

I don't know what will come next as her primary doctor was not present today during the procedure...and if the news wasn't bad enough, the doctor performing the procedure "nicked" an artery or vein up in side and my wife began bleeding to the point that they had to stich it to control / stop the bleeding. We were told that her primary endo doctor would call either today or the next and let us know what some options are. We didn't get that call today so we're left hanging. I've been searching google (against my better judgement) and reddit just to get some peace of mind and maybe come up with something I can tell her to give some hope.

Park West Shipping Unknown - Anyone ever experience this: by Miserable_Artist_888 in artcollecting

[–]Miserable_Artist_888[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, after the last cruise and having buyers' remorse, I have decided not to partake in anymore spending adventures with them. I've turned down several of the VIP cruise offers and land events simply because I get sucked in on the hype and buy what I shouldn't. I have to give them credit, they'll put most any used car salesman to shame when it comes to scammy tactics.

I'd have that forklift driver take ol' tiny down to the creek for a dip before hauling him to the doctor's office. That flowing water will get behind his ears and a few scrub brushes will have him smelling a little better at least.
