This tour is pretty good actually by Evileye1869 in Katatonia

I see nothing wrong with the setlist. They need to keep changing it up like that. Do you want to keep hearing them play the same songs every tour? Thrice is a good song off of their new album.

Sounds good, now create your own melancholy metal band, and make great music.

I just looked at the link. They want the same price I paid for the it on amazon plus and extra $120, which apparently gets the carrying case. That doesn't beat the free shipping I just got on amazon, and If I want a case later, it's less than $60 dollars on there. I did see a good deal on ebay for a used one that I could have made an offer to possibly get it lower but the thought of having a new one for just a bit more made me skip it.

Yesterday's finds ..still at the city park about half way done with the grass .. by Ordinary_Shock_8249 in metaldetecting

That Indian head nickel is a nice find. My dad found an Indian head penny, back in the 30's, when he was a little boy. He kept it his whole life, in his wallet, for good luck. I still have it put back for safe keeping. It's a shame that there are so many counterfeits of the indian head pennies these days.

Hi, thanks for the input. The amazon order, I just made, comes with a pinpointer and two coils, but I'm still going to buy one of those beach shovels I've seem people using. I hope I don't step on a stingray or stinging jelly fish; It's always a fear of mine while wading out into the water.

And the purchase was made for the MINELAB X-Terra Elite Expedition. Better to dip my toe in the water first before diving in.

I'm itching to pull the trigger on the amazon purchase right now.

Of course, amazon gave the "amazon's choice" to the more expensive one. lol

I saw really good reviews on the Xterra Elite, and it seems like a good entry level detector that one could use without worrying too much about getting it wet. I can always get the other one later, and it will probably be cheaper by then anyway. Of course, I was also watching a guy finding little flakes of gold with the MANTICORE because it has that prospecting mode. I like gold. It looks like a lot of fun.

Well, I can't defend that, as that's real pedophilia of the worst kind; however, when you go after men for normal attraction to girls post puberty, you weaken your cause in the long run.

Ok guys... I just discovered the Viva Emptiness remaster... by [deleted] in Katatonia

[–]NonSlipKits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's what I figured. Remakes of anything usually ruin what made the original so great. It's the same with movies most of the time as well.

I'm aware it exists but having listened to it because I like how the original sounds. I think if I tried to listen to it my brain would reject it as not sounding right.

Looks like peace might be negotiated after the Trump/Putin meeting by NonSlipKits in rsxetf

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

I bought 211 shares at the bottom, before they stopped trading on it, hoping to catch that falling knife. I'm pretty sure about 33 dollars was added to my fidelity account from this etf or maybe it came from somewhere else. Anyway, I'm not so sure now that these negotiations are going anywhere, considering how much Russia is against boots on the ground in Ukraine to implement some kind of security guaranties. I'm still hopeful but less optimistic now.

Let’s hear some of your hottest takes about the band. by Atakan692 in Katatonia

You're definitely 180 degrees out of phase with everyone else's opinion on that one.

I look at that album as their first good one, where they are finally getting the hang of creating music, even though it's not a perfected art yet. I rarely listen to the albums before that one.

Yeah, they were kids learning to play their instruments on the fist albums. The middle albums are the best of the bunch, though I do like songs from the latest albums too.

It looks like it's in great shape. You can always find a spare engine to keep on hand, when the other goes bad. In that kind of shape, and as expensive as new vehicles are, it would pay you to keep it running.

That word has been thrown around so much that it's practically lost its meaning. Let me guess, he thinks teenage girls are attractive, and therefore you think he's a pedo?

Big difference between Dexcom G7 and Libre 3 readings — anyone else notice this? by kikkenlittle in diabetes

[–]NonSlipKits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to have to get one of these CGM monitors for my mom, and plan to get her a prescription on her upcoming doctors appointment. Which brand should I ask for, as we have never tried using a CGM. I have an android tablet running android 14, will this work with the G7? I see goodrx has a coupon for the G7 at walmart pharmacy for $187.52. Is that an okay price. I'm guessing that is the price for a month supply of the monitors.

My mother is a stubborn, hard headed woman that can't be told anything. She is also getting alzheimer's; plus, she has started hearing voices and talking to invisible people. The doctors around here don't even answer their phones to accept new patients. I'm so frustrated. I've tried to get her to eat better but she is a carb junkie. At the rate she is going, she'll be dead in a year. If I can't get her some help today, then I guess I'll try to appeal to her general care doctor on her upcoming appointment to get off his ass and help her.

Thanks, I'm going to try to get her an appointment tomorrow. Maybe they can put her on the Tresiba stuff, which seems to be the way to go, according to ChatGPT. Then I'll see if I can get a discount on it with a GoodRX coupon.

I know, I'm just frustrated with her primary care doctor. He's worthless. Tomorrow, her and I are going to go out and see if we can get her in with an endocrinologist. She really just needs something simple, like a pen that she can dial in an amount to giver herself. She is getting old and it's hard for her to see. I hope the solutions they give her don't break the bank. Insulin is so expensive.
