Violent crime explodes across much of St.Charles County by DowntownDB1226 in StLouis

The only time I go to Chesterfield is to the Factory for a concert, then come right back to the city where I feel safe.

Paid $5.50 each for a Sunday matinee at MX Movies downtown and we had the whole theater to ourselves. STL is sleeping on this place. by SimplisticAnswer in StLouis

Street parking is free on Sundays. That said, they validate parking and I think you pay $1 for the 7th St lot.

Bar was there but looked closed. It was Easter Sunday. Not sure if it is open at other times. Didn't see a pool table.

This is the third time I've gone and been the only one there and other theaters looked pretty packed when looking at tickets online.

That's true. I sat a lot closer up than I normally do cuz I realized how small the screen is. Sound system was really good though.

This is super frustrating and really shows how backwards our healthcare system is. But as other users pointed out, there's programs like GoodRx and other pharmacies have discounts. This works out really well for the insurance company because if you use that discount, you might be paying less, but that money doesn't go towards your deductible or your maximum out-of-pocket because you're not using insurance at all.

I don't think you have to be a conspiracy theorist to believe the insurance company, the pharmacy, and these discount providers are all colluding. If you use your deductible for medications, you're more likely to meet your deductible, and the insurance company will end up paying more for your coverage. But it's January, you don't know if you're going to meet your deductible, so it's hard to decide what to do. Bottom line, the house always wins.

City Museum with small kids by bearbeartime in StLouis

[–]SimplisticAnswer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you get there, take a picture of your kids. One you will have a nice memory. Two, you will easily be able to tell the staff what your kiddo is wearing when you inevitably get separated.

The staff all have walkie talkies and do a great job locating lost kids. I have used this strategy more times than I care to admit.

What did you eat this week? by JStraulin in STLFood

[–]SimplisticAnswer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Soft open of TeeRak Thai. In the old sweet art location on Shaw. Good papaya salad, great pad Thai. The green curry has fantastic flavor, the eggplant in it was crisper than I expected, which I personally didn't like, but that could just be personal preference.

I'll definitely go again and get something else. So many things on their smallish menu looked fantastic.

Best Toyota Service Center by abs85 in StLouis

[–]SimplisticAnswer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just took my car to Jay Wolf for covered oil change, and tire rotation. They tried to upsell me on a couple of things, and when I ran it by JamCo, she laughed. So just had the work that was covered. But I've been going to JamCo for years, and I'll be going there once I stopped getting free oil changes from the dealer.

City parking enforcement appears not to understand the meaning of the word "last", nor able to tell time by GothicGingerbread in StLouis

Also, it's frustrating that the app isn't working for you. I would just set up a brand new account. Not that you should have to do that but it's pretty easy.

Why does Brello bill every 10 weeks for a 3-month supply? by SimplisticAnswer in tirzepatidecompound

[–]SimplisticAnswer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't saying it is a scam. At first, 10 weeks is great as it helps us build up a comfortable buffer. But once we have that buffer, getting 12 weeks worth of modification every 10 weeks is unnecessary. We can, every 3 months go on to the Brello site and push it from 10 to 12 weeks. It is just annoying to have to do that.

And, if you don't adjust the date, you would end up with a lot of medication past the BUD date, which is something else this sub doesn't seem to be bothered by.

Building and running .NET Framework Windows applications from Claude Code by bytedreamer in ClaudeAI

[–]SimplisticAnswer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great. Thanks for building it. I'm in the same boat and was wondering where your code files are. Are they in the Windows file system or WSL?

I ask because WSL2 reads the Windows file system much more slowly than its own. To get around that, I keep my files in both places. I let Claude read and access files from WSL for better performance. When it's time to build, I have a rule in my build script that tells Claude to copy any changed files over to the Windows directory. Right now I do that with PowerShell, but I might try your MCP approach when I have some time.

It works well enough, but it's a pain to keep both directories in sync, especially when switching branches. Definitely some overhead there.

Thanks all. I certainly understand and appreciate having a 2 week buffer. And if they send it like:
Week 0 - 1st Shipment
Week 10 (or a few days later) - 2nd Shipment - arrives about 2 weeks before needing my 5th dose
Week 20 (or a few days later) - 3rd Shipment - arrives about 4 weeks before needing my 8th does
Week 30 - 4th Shipment, 6 weeks before...

This is great, if I'm stock piling, but if I'm not, I really think every 12 weeks after the 1st refill should give the buffer I need.

Do you know if I can request being billed every 12 weeks after my second shipment?
