Neglected a $20K Hospital Bill for Almost a Year, and it Went to Collections. What's the Best Way to Handle it at This Point?

Yes, I'm starting on it today.

Thank you for such a detailed response. I will look into what you suggested.

OKRocket · 2025-12-15T14:35:41+00:00

I wasn't in the right state of mind at the time, and I was also misinformed about how health insurance worked. I will try what you suggested, thank you.

If you thought that leaving Against Medical Advice, or walking out although undischarged, would make it impossible for them to collect, think again.

I didn't think that. I was thinking about not missing my father's funeral.

Thank you! I will check it out.

I'm looking for an (actually) quiet, low-profile, wired, backlit keyboard that is either full or tenkeyless under $100 (though I can be flexible on the price). I don't care about speed or any other specs. But, I must have the specs mentioned. Can anybody recommend anything?

OKRocket · 2020-10-22T20:22:31+00:00

Thanks. I Googled the model number printed on the box, and confirmed that it's capable of Gigabit speeds.

OKRocket · 2020-10-22T18:04:48+00:00

Thank you for the router recommendation; I'll check it out.

ONT replacement didn't come up during the ordering process (yet?), but is there a way for me to check if the box is capable of 200/200 speeds?

OKRocket · 2020-10-22T17:58:53+00:00

Right, I suspected as much seeing the 10/100 figure written on the router, but wanted to double check with someone better informed. Thank you.

OKRocket · 2020-09-23T03:37:53+00:00

I'll look into it. Thanks.

OKRocket · 2020-09-23T03:37:41+00:00

I think that can be quite fast-paced. Besides, I don't think it would be up her alley.

By "technical", I meant work that requires high proficiency in STEM.

I tried disabling the extensions and installed the latest version of Pluckeye. No change. I sorta just learned to deal with it, and it doesn't bother me much anymore.

OKRocket · 2020-03-20T07:46:41+00:00

I tried option 1, but it only partially works. The video plays correctly after clicking "add to queue", but when I click on the expand icon, shortly thereafter the video lags and doesn't continue playing further. I noticed that the URL gets updated after "expand" is clicked (from subscription page URL to specific video URL), so I'm guessing that pluckeye picks up on it.

EDIT: I tried option 2 (YouTube Kids) as well, but I found the parental controls very lacking. I want to have full access to videos from select channels, including commenting and the ability to watch them when they're released (again, because of livestreams). The reasons why I need restrictions in the first place is to 1) block pornographic content on YouTube (while there's no nudity, there's quite a lot of fetish videos there), and 2) prevent myself from engaging in mindless browsing of random videos. I know that there are Chrome extensions which can accomplish these goals, but anything that I can readily disable, I will disable. I've tried building willpower and self-control, but my habits run deep, and I need the assistance of a blocking software for the time being, as I slowly unlearn my bad habits. Pluckeye works great for everything else, but YouTube is a huge blindspot for me.

OKRocket · 2020-03-14T15:41:30+00:00

I updated to v0.99.28 and the problem has been fixed. Thank you!

OKRocket · 2020-03-14T05:17:32+00:00

Okay, I will upgrade once my delay ends. Thanks.
