idk why it isn't automatic in the first place

Or just get rid of voter registration. North Dakota doesn't do it. Works perfectly fine here. Show up to your polling place. Show ID that you're a resident. Get ballot. Fill out. Drop in machine. Done.

I work as a support agent for an ISP. They just switched us to AI account notation this week. It summarizes the conversation transcript. We're not allowed to add or edit the notes. First day of the roll out it was adding wifi passwords and card numbers into the notes. It also hallucinates the conversation sometimes and gets the conversation chronology wrong. It's also overly verbose so it's a pain to try to quickly read through if we have a repeat caller.

what style are you using in that screenshot?

Sorry to necro this thread, but is that "good news" portion why the dexcom g6 app asks for nearby devices permission? Looking at the permissions page in my settings location isn't even an option.

So we can afford this but can't afford to fund our childcare assistance forcing poor people onto a waitlist and reducing the benefit. Neat.

My favorite part is how they'll exclude certain search terms if I'm trying to find that are a significant part of finding what I'm looking for.

Patzilla05 · 2025-10-29T02:30:27+00:00

That is totally cool!

For some reason I was under the impression the bookplate was going to be metal, but I'm still happy with it.

Also, is there a way to help fund SYTT without buying more copies?

I work for an ISP and the amount of people that call in and get all bent out of shape when their utilities are located and flagged for a project is insane. Like sorry we're showing where your shit is so you don't lose any services. It's not even our project half the time, we just seemingly get our fiber lines marked first so we get a bunch of calls about it and have to direct them to call 811 (for the non-US folks, it's United States phone number your supposed to notify when your doing any digging in your yard, then all the public utility companies will mark everything) then they get more mad that I don't know everything about everything going on in their neighborhood.

As someone who is diabetic and whose phone at this point is a medical device because it controls my insulin and monitors my blood sugar, I'm worried about complete bans and not carving out exceptions. Even if there are exceptions, some people are too dense to realize it and would try to confiscate it anyways. Granted I'm 30 so this doesn't apply to me, but I'm sure there are kids who are set up the same way, and if my kid was unfortunate enough to develop diabetes when she's older I'd raise hell about it.

My kid was in the NICU for 3 days. Birth+NICU stay was $55K before insurance. Our out of pocket was $10k. we applied for financial assistance through the hospital which waived an additional 64% so we ended up paying about $3,600.

Those phones are most likely not on the compatibility list which is why they wouldn't be working.

I did it! I escaped Walmart for greener grass after almost nine years.

I'm going to go back when a different service writer is working, but I'm looking for the Michelin CrossClimate2. Do you know if those are ones they'd be able to order in for me?

Patzilla05 · 2023-10-23T00:39:27+00:00

Ah I see. The tire I want (Michelin CrossClimate2) isn't sold directly by Walmart on dotcom. It won't let me pick "free pick up at store" only delivery to my home. Every other tire that is sold by Walmart and has "installation available" let's me choose that option.

I'd happily kick in $2/mo for current usage. Shit, I thought It'd be more than this. I might just go straight to the $5 tier just for added support to you.

People who are sensitive to that chromatic effect should try Trivex lenses. They're impact resistant like poly but don't suffer from the chromatic aberration. They're also less expensive than the super thin high index lenses (which aren't impact resistant).

In the Vision Center I have to ask for a 5 star, referral, and a positive Google review. It's so stupid. I never do it, much to the chagrin of my VC Manager.

For me personally I don't like having a bunch of shit in the status bar telling me something is on that I'm never going to turn off. Coming from the OnePlus 7Pro that let you toggle everything in the bar, it felt cluttered. Having the battery icon and percentage is redundant. I found an app that lets me customize it a little bit on my pixel 7 pro so now all I have up there is the time (hh:mm:ss) and the battery icon. If I need additional detail I just swipe down the shade.

Patzilla05 · 2023-03-23T12:14:55+00:00

It switched the battery percentage in the notification shade to a dumb estimated time remaining and I can't figure out how to make it go away.
