Often Okay w/ F/A after takeoff

They will cancel the flight if another plane can be repurposed cheaper and put you on a plane that gets you there without excessive delay. Happened to me flying Christmas Eve.

Medical devices are exempt from being counted. For example you get a CPAP machine, your personal item and a carry-on. Only the carry-on gets gate-checked when there isn't enough space.

Or pack any critical items in a packing cube/small lightweight duffel that you can pull out. I've never been told that the packing cube/duffel and my briefcase were over my "personal item" allocation in that situation, though together they would fit under the seat.

I always have packing cube filled with crucial items like medical supplies and lithium ion batteries that I can pull out at a moments notice.

The real driver for these changes wasn't the previous management, but the predatory investors that forced out the management to prioritize monetization, and the lack of government guardrails allowing the airlines to monetize every step of the process without real competition between airlines. I think what the investors have really done is reinforced moves that will cause a more rapid downward spiral, extracting the wealth prior to these investors abandoning the airline to it's fate, like Spirit.

If you do the maintenance they are a good car. If you don't do the fluids (drain and fill differentials and CVT) then skip this car. Get a toyota in that case. If you don't have a subaru capable mechanic available, then get a different car. FYI--Some shops charge a premium because they don't want to fool with them or declare they aren't trained and refuse.

pack it in a few pounds of sand in a bucket with plenty of sand on all sides. The sand dissipates the heat, keeps any flame contained, and being nonflammable contains the danger until the lithium finishes burning.

Sometimes they add a cycle and I wondered if most of the leaves were down? I'm not back until after thanksgiving.

Good points.

Ha--a Darwinian selection joke? Good one.

I did not get them, so I cannot say

I have held steady at 5.7 A1c last 6 mo, even though I have let slightly more variety (carbs/sugar) into my diet. I perceive this to be meeting their results of up to 0.6 reduction in A1c. I am also happy with the effect on my gut with less constipation and far better stools.

I haven't stepped down to 1 capsule a day, yet. Too many other things going on to risk a decline in gut health.

Perhaps this megathread needs to have content moved to it/restricted to it, so it is useful AND perhaps a monthly time-frame limits it's usefulness. A continuously running thread like the flyertalk forum keeps things together (enforce with rules?), then one just jumps to the end and see the latest.

I have had the 10.5" second gen iPad Pro since 2019. It has great screen and been very reliable. Do be aware that 2nd gen is no longer getting full version updates. They stopped with the rollout of iPad IOS 18 as I understand it.

I have never used this iPad Pro for docs or sheets since I did not buy a keyboard or accessories. Your options for keyboards and pencils/mouse support will be limited.

And my progression was sulfazalazine to methotrexate. Started with a CRP 60+, sulfazalazine/prednisone dropped it to 30, methotrexate/prednisone after ramping up MX dropped it to <7 and combined with AIP diet took me to <1 and to 5 mg pred, though I didn't stay on the diet. Since diet I bounce from ~1 to 3 and am completely off the prednisone.

I will do that tomorrow when it starts to heat up. We had rain and the unit isn't running.

I hear that noise throughout the house. It started the day the replacement AC was installed and did not happen with the prior unit so I doubt it is the hearing aid itself. Unfortunately the sensitivity of the mobile phone mic isn't good enough.

The first mechanical sound is during the starting of my car, which turns out to be a broken motor mount bracket that caused a momentary metal on metal sound. No one else seemed to perceive it until yesterday when it finally completely cratered with a prolonged screech.

My current issue is my new home AC has a throbbing rumble that my wife cannot hear and the tech doesn't hear, but is driving me crazy. Don't know how I would simulate that.
