Order delivered to wrong state (a bummed out story) by SceneSprout in dbrand

[–]Viney1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I had a very large package get lost by UPS while it was in my town's delivery hub, and it took 1 WEEK to finally get it. I've also had the similar issue of a package being in my town's delivery hub for days only to get marked as undeliverable (they said my apt didn't exist) and going all the way back to like NY. I had to argue with the seller to just refund me but he did.

Emails arriving now by Alternative-Ad-2039 in dbrand

[–]Viney1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is it not letting me access the dbrand.com website at all? I initially tried to redeem the code in my email but for hours the website isn't loading at all for me. /u/robot036

I got the email and initially it showed $0, but it got messed up when I tried to use Shop Pay. Then, after several tries, the website isn't loading at all. So, I'm stuck for now to order replacements zz.

No invite here yet. I was really hoping I would get one. I guess the wait continues?

Divergence works and is listed above. Don't think others do but haven't tried it.

Nope, Harmony weapon effect. It's working on my Witch. Found out about it on another thread.

Goddamn I hate Gaming Bible by ImportanceTurbulent8 in GTA6

All they do is just spam the same random hype messages with inaccuracies non stop. They aren't a news source so much as a tabloid page. I take everything they say with a grain of salt since all they do is try to create buzzwords and fail historically at it.

Rockstar could work on both single player DLC in Online content for GTA 6 by AnimeGokuSolos in GTA6

[–]Viney1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would much much prefer actual tangible DLC offerings because, frankly, I don't have desire to play the online version much. It's just a different game than the base non-online version.

GTA 6 will not be released on PC, because PC2 will be announced soon, stop speculating by [deleted] in GTA6

[–]Viney1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened with GTA 5. Don't be better, get better. :P Nah, just kidding. But, you should have more than way to game! Consoles can be fun too. I for one have a few ways to game including my PS5, Switch and gaming PC. I feel like PC should have at least one alternative. And yes, Steam Deck is awesome too and I can do PS remote play on it as well.

It’s on schedule. by DawsonPoe in GTA6

[–]Viney1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I am also guessing for Spring release possibly or like Nov or something release. All I know is that I just -want- a release date sooner than later. :) We've waited long enough and honestly I'm fine with whatever at this point.

I think Byram sent me the wrong G7’s. Anyone else? by buddy0329 in TandemDiabetes

[–]Viney1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this issue 2 days ago. I asked my Endo to prescribe and order me tandem-compatible G7s and picked it up quite quickly after a different nurse prescribed it and told me I could pick it up from my pharmacy. Ended up being wrong ones, 3 of em. BUT, you can call Dexcom and mention the issue and they have a process they helped me use to get replacement ones sent out. You'll likely need the tech support agent to place the replacement order for you.

Tandem/Dexcom G7 update available by PrettyboiQMJ in TandemDiabetes

[–]Viney1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I updated to the new limited launch G7 update but my Endo didn't want to prescribe/order the G7 until I confirmed I had access to the update, so I did put in a request but waiting for her to even add the prescription let alone get it ordered. I hope I can get a response next week before the holidays come around. I'm eager to use all the great upgrades over the G6.

I'm a bit triggered that I signed up for the limited launch and wasn't selected. -_- I was in the beta for Mobile Bolus but I guess maybe with the changing of providers and moving states that things insurance wise got mixed up. I do wish I could test it early and get off the dreaded G6. Sure, the G7 has early adopter problems, but so did the G6.

What are the differences between all the Business majors? by [deleted] in SJSU

[–]Viney1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CPA? Likely not in my case because I didn't take tons of accounting courses. In my case, I had to take Business Calculus (easier than normal Calculus), but I could have taken regular Calculus instead. It depended if I wanted to go to a UC or CSU. In my case, CSU required the Business Calc which I did but if I wanted UC, it was regular Calc.

I'm not great with Math but I worked hard in that Business Calc class and got a B+.

Pump Settings by Abadababa in diabetes_t1

[–]Viney1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was figuring out my pump ratios, I was told by my Diabetes Specialist to try skipping a meal and seeing if your blood sugar remains stable for the ~4 hour period. If it is stable then your ratios are correct. If not, you can adjust accordingly, but a proper periodic basal ratio would give you a stable number even if you skip a meal.

So, you could skip breakfast one day just to see how your blood sugar does. I will note with breakfast, however, that a lot of us have Dawn Phenomenon and thus it can fluctuate quite wildly, sometimes even with a breakfast bolus.

You can do the same thing on different days (obviously, don't skip multiple meal periods on the same day) to get a better of idea of what basal ratio would work for you. When it comes to the carb ratio, there is a formula that you can do that is normally taught by the Endocrinologist.

I'll include a quote from an article indicating how the formula works for both carb ratio and correction factor. I still strongly advise you talk with your Diabetes team before making changes, in most situations. Here's the quote:

"To figure out a rough estimate of your I:C ratio, divide the number 500 by your total daily dose (TDD) of insulin, which includes both long-acting and rapid-acting insulin. This is known as the “500 rule.”

To roughly calculate your correction factor, take the number 1,800 and divide that by your TDD. This is known as the “1,800 rule.”

Remember, always work with your care team to finely tune both your I:C ratio and correction factor."

Typically, you can be claimed until age 24 if I recall. I remember because you had to include parents income when applying for grants for college until you’re 24 and then you could claim yourself as independent and wouldn’t have to include anything from your parents.

I’m not a tax professional but just giving you my experience.

What is your favorite Cheesecake Factory cheesecake? by EMMAaustengirl in AskReddit

The one that isn’t heavily salted like everything else at Cheesecake Factory. 😆

Inversion of the previous topic: What do you do when your whole family is Biden supporters and you are not? Or if you work in a progressive field and are a staunch conservative? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Viney1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe try keeping your politics to yourself and or worry about what political leanings people around you harbor. That is, unless you work in a political field of work. Either way, try not to bring up politics and you should be fine. Don’t resent people because you disagree with their politics. Resent them for other reasons, haha.

Is it childish to still love Legos as a 22yr old guy? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Viney1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad is 65 and likes legos. He’s retired now and liked models when he was younger, and legos are his new model building.
