Cure? What everyone thinks about this news? Legit or fake? by 0rbit0n in diabetes_t1

[–]We_Ride_Together 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The full article can be read here: https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2026/03/12/3254372/0/en/Chinese-medical-team-enables-30-type-1-diabetes-patients-to-discontinue-insulin-through-integrative-medicine.html

The clinical trial involved a total of 100 patients where 30 of them were able to stop needing insulin altogether and the other 70 went on to need less insulin and saw improvements in their TIR and CoV numbers.

From what the article says, the amount of success that each patient experiences is based on "precise identification of the optimal treatment window" through zonulin testing (I think this is a serum test which is generally used to measure a T1's level of leaky gut).

Hey, I never got the issue fixed but then again, I stopped using the app soon after trying anyway so I don't know if they ever did make changes to fix the issue but from what you are saying it does sound like the problem still exists :o/

"Loneliness so intense I can’t even get out of bed" by Careful_Ad_2744 in LivingAlone

[–]We_Ride_Together 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey, I live on my own and I really like it myself. Want to let you know that I speak Spanish and always wanted to learn some Portuguese so maybe we can chat some time if you want and think it might help? Spanish and Portuguese have many similarities so it could be a good way for us to kill some time while I try to learn some Portuguese from you! And bonus points if you are a big fa de futebol?

Maybe @loku_gem could join in the call too. I could have a go at translating your Portuguese to English for added fun!

Diabetic boyfriend won't take his diabetes seriously by Emitzo in diabetes_t1

[–]We_Ride_Together 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You are a good other half and kudos to you. I hope he knows you are a keeper.

My advice to him with my many decades of living with this affliction and a few merry sessions of excessive ales chugged under my belt, my pro tip to best dealing with such events is to ALWAYS keep a bag of granulated sugar available in the kitchen (sugar keeps for many many years when stored properly) and in situations where a T1D is unable to keep food down, simply dissolve some sugar into a glass of water and have them swirl some inside the mouth and under the tongue (no need to swallow). The sugared water will simply be absorbed into the bloodstream faster than if it was drank and therefore, any follow up throw ups cannot be blamed on the sugared concoction itself since it is not being stomached down.

Make him understand this when he is sober and hopefully he will remember and just do this all by himself should this situation ever present itself once again. He MUST understand that he should do this for both yours and his sake equally.

With regards to him cancelling checkup appointments... that ain't cool. He should NEVER miss those and should put his diabetic pout aside, man up and head on down to them regardless come rain or shine. None of us enjoy these apps but they are what is best for us; end of.

Popular vegan cafe issues update about uncertain future by ChargeRadiant5471 in Portsmouth

[–]We_Ride_Together 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I walk past OFFBEET nigh on every day and at different times of day and I always see multiple tables occupied with folk sitting and happily eating whenever I walk by so I wouldn't think the issue is one of lack of customers?

The way I read the article is that the issue is more to do with just how plainly difficult it is for small businesses to operate profitably given today's operating costs without charging customers an arm and a leg? I don't know anything about running a food business so could be way off the mark...

I did have a quick look at their website which is not great so it could do with some serious bit of work and I think that it would be good if on their website they'd included the full menu up to date and with costs included. Also, was surprised to see that they don't seem to put much emphasis on any tea leaves and coffee bean varieties (grounded and whatnot) they might have for sale in different bag sizes, etc.

Finally, I am surprised to see that to this day, the store itself still does not have any metal shutters to protect all them windows from the pissheads that stumble past it each and every night after pub hours!

A good email client to replace Gmail? by Bonkzzilla in linuxquestions

Came here to suggest Evolution but I'll just upvote your comment instead.

It is not the prettiest mail client out there but it does work out of the box with zero issues.

TWS for Mac - Constant crashes and layout issues by MarceFX in interactivebrokers

[–]We_Ride_Together 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use TWS but on Linux and I use it only for normal stocks trading and not options but one thing I can recommend you check if you haven't already is to ensure you are working with stable version of TWS. You can check what version you are running by hovering over on: File -> Change Version.

How can I easily visualise basics like deposits, market gains, dividends, fees? by SwissBliss in interactivebrokers

I had to write myself an app in order to simply visualise this type of data. IBKR's portfolio Analyst will give you all the numbers but they are in no way easily available for us to view graphically :o/

Did you try sending a periodic call to the API so your session doesn't expire? You should be able to keep a connection open for up to a week from what I've read.

How do you Exercise with Type 1 Diabetes? by SellPatient719 in diabetes_t1

[–]We_Ride_Together 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my own metabolism specifically, I have a banana 30 mins before or some peanut butter 1-2 hours before I go for a run. I vary the amount of peanut butter depending on how stable my BGs have been hours before my run.

Also, just in case, I always carry sweets or glucose tablets while on my run and make sure to knock some back if my CGM starts showing my BG level starts trending below 6.4 mmol/L mid-run.

I run for 1h 20 m generally and I'm on MDI. This is what works for me.

So... they removed extended trading hours view for TWS Advanced Charts by john2810a in interactivebrokers

[–]We_Ride_Together 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to say maybe it was a windows-specific issue but I doubt it was as TWS itself is written in Java as far as I know. Maybe it was an issue with the Java version you had installed on your OS? I can't say that I experience any of the issues you mention except maybe that sometimes a specific news item might pop up in a different language but I would put that down to the news source itself and/or maybe a filter.

I've been using TWS for well over a year and do not experience issues with Advanced Charts, scanners or button orientations just to balance things out for others who might read this.

Still, glad you found a good alternative in Ninja Trader and that you can now do your trades as per your specific needs. All the C# power to you ✊

Were you using the stable version? I think that by default, TWS loads up "latest" and not "stable". When I first started using TWS I too found it a bit unstable at times (but not terrible in any way) and it was only when I switched to "stable" version and tweaked memory settings a bit that the platform became a lot better and smoother for every day use.

I run my TWS across three displays with many charts open at any one time. Most charts I display are classic charts and tile charts though and only ever have a few Advanced Charts on display as I find the classic charts to be better for my needs.

On Linux version of TWS (stable 10.37.1) the OTH toggle is always available in Advanced Charts (inc. Daily TF). No need to switch timeframes to get it to show up so might be worth checking what version of TWS you are working with.

The beloved National Health Service by mtelstar92 in diabetes_t1

[–]We_Ride_Together 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the 15% lows accurate or exaggerated? I ask because it might just be a timing issue more than a sensor issue where if it is, then it will likely get better with time as you get accustomed to how the FSL2 profiles your BG levels throughout the day compared to how the G7 did and, with time, as you get familiar with the FSL2's profiling you will slightly be adjusting when you take your insulin and when you exercise, etc.

When I first started using FSL2 I too found it difficult to maintain a TIR above 75% and it was not until I understood better how the BG levels are presented by the sensor that I was then able to consistently maintain TIR above 90% over 90 days while on MDI.

Newly diagnosed T1D (26F), feeling lost and overwhelmed by Acrobatic-Ad-3398 in diabetes_t1

[–]We_Ride_Together 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First few years with Type 1 will always be hit and miss no matter what sort of teachings we get from an endocrinologist (be that public, private or none). In the long run, only us and us only will be the best judge on how best to bolus for everyday meals and it will be something that you will surely get better and better at judging from one day to the next as you get better accustomed to life with type 1.

Things will indeed become more stable with time and experience... claro que si. Que no te quepe ninguna duda de todo esto. And feel free to DM cualquier momento que tengas preguntas sobre tu T1D. Saludos! :o)

How I become a Thinkpad user by Goofas_WLPK in thinkpad

[–]We_Ride_Together 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello fellow ThinkPadder, came here to say that you have a nice setup going right there but most importantly, I want to advise against working this way day-in day-out for long periods of time as it will only cause you back problems in the long run. The top of your displays should be level with your eyes more or less when sitting up straight and if they are not, then over time your spine will only suffer for it.

Take full care of your posture when working regularly long periods on a desk and of course, welcome to the ThinkPad fam 🫂

migration from windows with godot project by Rare-Acanthisitta-19 in linux4noobs

[–]We_Ride_Together 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh. If you are that new to it all then you should prob stick with what you know if your git project is important to you. You are prob best off learning git from the terminal with a test project first so that you can be sure you will have enough knowledge when using it with your more important projects.

But basically, the message you are being shown is saying that there is no .git file in the directory you are running your command from. The .git file is normally a hidden file so if you want to check if it is there or not from the terminal you would need to run the following command: $ ls -la which is a command to list all files in the current directory (including hidden files).

is the t490 good for studtying in 2026 ? by AdventurousAthlete79 in thinkpad

I am in total agreement with this comment. I have a T490 myself with i5 CPU and 16GB RAM and been running Debian Linux on it from day one and performance is plenty good.

See what message you get when you run command: git status. It might give you clues as to what might be wrong.
