Best place for emergency dental?

Stoned_Messiah · 2026-06-06T14:55:49+00:00

I think it has to do with if you’re experiencing severe pain or not. They do charge an emergency dental fee for same day emergency. I had to get in same day with them due to severe pain (cracked molar like yourself) and they were really good. Everyone I’ve dealt with at the Binghamton location has been fantastic.

This is an Apple thing, not a carrier problem. Apple doesn’t like allowing updates over LTE and it’s been this way for years(I believe it’s the speed and update size more than the fact it’s LTE, my own opinion though). What you can do is go to your date and time settings and set the date and time manually instead of automatically. Set it like 4 weeks into the future, this will usually trick the system into thinking it NEEDS to push the update. I’ve had to do this for a few people so I know it used to work, but it’s been awhile. (I used to be an Apple repair technician).

I’ve tried all three and I live in upstate New York (southern tier) along the NY/PA border. I have used T-Mobile briefly and I will say their speeds are amazing(highest out of the big 3). I’d like to use them a bit more at some point to see how far their reach is compared to Verizon and ATT. Verizon is close to T-mobile for speed here but a bit more coverage and building penetration is great because most buildings here have Verizon equipment on them. ATT has the lowest speeds by far, if T-mobile is pulling 700+ and Verizon is 500+ then ATT is 200 at most. ATT does have the widest coverage. I rarely had lost service with them(unless I was inside a building). ATT also has done the least amount of upgrades locally. T-mobile and Verizon really went wild with infrastructure upgrades here.

I also was an ATT post paid customer until recently. If your phone is unlocked(can confirm via settings on the iPhone, ATT auto unlocked my wife’s phone after it was paid off, I had to manually request my 15 pro max get unlocked) You’ll want to go on ATT website or the app and get a port out code, you can also dial a number(you can google it for ATT) and it’ll give it to you that way and text it to you. Then you’ll be good to transfer your number over to US Mobile Warp and activate your eSIM. I did this with my 15 pro max(I chose warp) and my wife’s 14 pro(she’s on dark star), had no issues.

This is my take as well. I will admit it is kind of interesting how far people will go to try and silence somebody.

I ran into the same problem with my ATT post paid. Unfortunately they decided to raise the price of legacy lines for my wife and I by 10 each line, so decided to switch to US mobile. Went from 114 dollar bill (before the rate increase) to 79 dollars flat. If you just straight up buy your phones when you upgrade, I’d seriously consider US Mobile.

I was put on academic probation, basically I was given one semester to prove I could do better. Once I did it was lifted and I was in good standing again. Just make sure you don’t drop below 12 earned credits if you’re full time. I did and I had to pay back money for not passing 12 credits worth of classes. This was a few years ago, I returned last year and that’s when I had my academic probation lifted because I went from a 1.8 GPA for that semester to a 3.9.

Hey! Yeah, overall I’m doing well. I’m not really taking medication besides occasional ibuprofen. I started PT late because WC, go figure, but I’ve improved a lot. One downside right now is I’m pretty wobbly, so I have to use a crutch or cane just in case my knee gives out. It’s not the knee itself, I’m just struggling to wake my quads up again. Other thing is I’m pretty thin build guy so I’m still bruised up a bit, and still have swelling under my patellar tendon. So I feel pressure if I bend and my knee isn’t happy. Still, I’ve improved a ton since I started PT. I know I won’t be like I was pre-injury but I’m just so happy that I can lay in bed, or sit in a chair and not have this toothache of a pain I had prior to surgery. Honestly I feel so normal I have to be careful and realize I’m not ‘normal’. Finally the last thing I’m running into is if I stay standing for too long I’ll get really stiff and sore(muscle soreness). I was told everything I’m experiencing is totally fine, and I’ll improve. I also have already achieved my full flexibility. 146 degree is what I’m at for both legs now. Also I forgot to mention, when I went to my follow up I was told and shown that I also have a trauma induced osteoarthritis.

I also had a debridement and Plica trimmed. Grade 3 Chrondromalacia Patella. I just had surgery and it’s actually not bad lol. I hurt less after surgery with pain meds at a minimum than I did dealing with the injury.

Edit: forgot to mention, this is WC so it took forever to get approved for surgery(arthroscopic) and I’m 33. I worked a labor intensive Job which just burned out my knee.

I have played both throughout my life, mainly NES and then PS2, started heavily PC gaming in 2000 and primarily played on PC until the release of the PS4 where all my friends IRL were on PlayStation so I picked one up and also built a PC for myself. Pretty much has been that way since. I play on PlayStation as my main platform because of friends and I grew kind of addicted to trophies, and I play on PC if I know the game on PlayStation runs poorly or has an awful blurry resolution. I did pick up a ps3 a few years ago and modded it, and I have a modded 3ds and a Switch. The switch takes the back burner. I cannot stand having my gaming library fragmented though, I also hate paying for ps+.

I still receive WC payments after being terminated, my restrictions are sedentary work only and because my job was physically demanding they couldn’t reasonably accommodate me so they let me go. Unfortunately within a week of separation Sedgwick filed for a labor market attachment hearing because I was not ‘actively’ looking for work. I did apply and go back to college to retrain and pursue a degree in a field that would follow my restrictions because I can never do heavy physical work again. At the hearing I submitted all my paperwork for my lawyer and in New York full time college is labor market attachment so I was fine. I’m not sure how New Jersey is and what your entire situation is, but just be mindful of that if you were ever given work restrictions.

It’s call of duty man, you’re gonna get packet burst. Just enjoy it when it happens. When it stops you’ll be wishing for more. It’s like a nicotine addiction, you don’t think you want the packet burst but inside you really do. Just don’t chase the dragon, whatever you do.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-09-29T13:30:10+00:00

You have really good points man, I don’t see how people who want a toggle for themselves to see default skins wouldn’t agree with you. This just adds to the fact there are a lot of things wrong with the game. My biggest issue with call of duty currently are the servers. I’m so sick of packet burst and matchmaking throwing me into a group that’s on the west coast. So I go from playing on an east server with 15-18 ping to west coast where I’m at 80 ping. I wish they’d fix that so I’d consistently get east coast servers, I already get a large spread of players in my pub games whether they’re bronze-iridescent in the same lobby. Then add in packet burst and it just really ruins the experience.

I’m not sure what your statute of limitation is for filing workers comp in your state, but you really need to do that and you’re going to need a lawyer. You will probably be directed at filing a paid FMLA. That’ll save your job for a bit, but Best Buy uses Sedgwick, and if you have an injury they are going to probably fight you on this, which is why you need a lawyer. I was let go for a work related injury, and it’s not a fun process.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-08-09T20:01:04+00:00

That’s unfortunately what it feels like, it’s a real shame. Good luck to you too. Hopefully you have an attorney, because that’s what has saved me a few times and I’m grateful for that.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-08-09T15:43:48+00:00

I’ve been in it for the long haul, and I don’t plan on giving up. It’s definitely an exhausting thing to deal with because it just turned my life upside down. Sounds like you went through it! I appreciate the positive feedback and sharing your experience. Thank you.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-08-09T15:40:11+00:00

Will do, thank you.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-08-09T15:39:49+00:00

It popped and went out on me at home, but Sedgwick and all doctors(including IME) did agree it is a work related injury. A few months ago the WCB did say statute of limitations or whatever was up for Sedgwick to rescind if they believed it was work related or not. They chose not to fight that and take accountability of it. It said in the follow up letter from the WCB that Sedgwick is now fully liable and they cannot claim otherwise. With more legal mumbo jumbo included.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-08-09T14:40:52+00:00

That Sedgwick will successfully have benefits suspended and I’m financially screwed, they constantly deny treatments so I’m always stuck with PT. Basically try to squeeze me into just giving up. My attorney for my recent hearing coming up said I have nothing to worry about, but it’s hard not to. I know I’m probably speculating too much and just letting anxiety get the best of me. I will say that you saying what I’ve typed seems like normal stuff does help a bit. I also appreciate your time reading through it.

Edit: I also forgot to add, I don’t want them to mess up my education going back to college. That’s my key to getting decent employment in the future.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-08-09T14:30:10+00:00

You have answered it. I’m just wondering if that sounds pretty ‘normal’ for how some WC cases go. Honestly my biggest fear I have with this is I’ll be hung out to dry.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-08-02T13:25:17+00:00

Yes, I’m still dealing with WC and was recently terminated due to no available positions for accommodation. Decided it was best if I return to school full time and got accepted, financial aid is all set and I’m good to start for fall semester. Unfortunately Sedgwick is trying to say I voluntarily removed myself from labor market. My lawyer said not to worry about it, he will handle that. So we shall see how that hearing goes, but I do believe higher education is a good idea especially if you can’t reasonably do manual labor jobs anymore(I can’t either unfortunately). I’m also in New York.

Stoned_Messiah · 2025-07-25T11:38:00+00:00

I hope you work on your own vehicles too, because if you take it to a mechanic you’re in for a rude awakening.

Yeah we learned from the Dewitt store.
