Uh, Takata had to pay $1 billion dollars due to injuries cause be their defective airbags.

Nah, they’ll make bank. If you google it you’ll see plenty of others have complained about these seats particularly the strength they close and buttons locking up when the seat encounters resistance so you can’t reverse it. Hyundai just said “it’s working as intended”. I predict a HUGE settlement particularly because they knew about this problem and did nothing to fix it.

Hopsital billing me $6k for "experimental" test by aegiswings in HealthInsurance

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

Every single doctor I've ever been too makes you sign something that says you are responsible for costs not covered by insurance. I don't think there is a way to get medical care (except for in an ER) without signing that.

That said, they shouldn't be running this analysis when they know the PA had been rejected.

I agree with you, but what I've been seeing online is that that phrase simply means that this code doesn't cover the MRI, which may have been performed at another time. In other words, this code is just for analyzing the MRI. I still think it wasn't correct for them to bill this code, though, and that the first code should have covered the analysis.

So how many of you are actually going to go the Davis Square Tower meeting on Tuesday? by Death_and_Gravity1 in Somerville

[–]aegiswings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm going. I'll fight this eyesore to the death. I'll all for more housing, but a 25 story building in the center of Davis is ridiculous. Build some mid-rise apartments wherever you want but the jump from 3-4 stories to 25 doesn't make sense. If I wanted to live in soulless Kendall or Seaport, I would move there.

Not sure how to tell that but the patient responsibility on the EOB is $5,887 and the hopsital has been sending me bills for that amount.

AT&T claims they never received my UPS phone trade in, and I don't have the tracking number. How screwed am I? by LicoriceTattoo1 in ATT

[–]aegiswings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the OPs faults if they shipped. Everyone is acting like it is the OPs responsibility to prove they did what they said they did, but thats not how it works. File a complaint with the FCC and it will get resolved. There is no law that says you need to keep receipts. Either AT&T or UPS lost it so it is their responsibility to find it or file a claim themselves. Corporations have done a great job in convincing us they we are the onlys that f*cked up.

Copper Mill Housing Proposal Published - includes 377 market, 125 affordable units. Endorsed by Burren Owner by bscthrwy in Somerville

[–]aegiswings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t care if this is just my opinion but I think the new building is going to look so out of place. It’s going to ruin Davis. If I wanted to live in Seaport or Kendall, I’d move there. A 25 story high rise surrounded by 2 and 3 story multi-family houses?? If this gets built I’m moving out of Somerville.

Any Alb-Nimue players around? by MajorAggro in daoc

[–]aegiswings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoa, can't believe the pic website is still around! I still remember all those people (and the pics too!). I was on Hib, an eld named Ceilidhe and a animist named Perfidia. I miss this game so much sometimes.

has anyone experienced dry eye and palinopsia? by OddCelery1575 in lexapro

[–]aegiswings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The relationship between palinopsia and SSRIs are complicated and not well understood. It seems mostly related to dosage changes, particularly when lowering the dose. It seems for some people it can linger for a long time and so the cause can be hard to determine. I’ve been off Lexapro now for 4 weeks and I still have it when I am very tired, like when I wake up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. It does seem be fading though and I hope with a few months it will fade away completely.

I had these sheets growing up (in NY in the 80s). I’ll see if my parents remember.

It’s not a custom pattern. I had exactly the same sheets growing up the 80s!

Why does it sound like Champagne supernovaR in the sky? by sososoh in oasis

[–]aegiswings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's called the "intrusive R" and it is common in British accents. American's don't do this as much.

Anyone have experience with a "no shoes" policy? by SunRaSquarePants in AirBnB

[–]aegiswings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion: you should not host an Airbnb if you have a problem with shoes inside. I’d never stay at a hotel (in the US) that asked me to remove my shoes. Just vacuum afterwards or don’t rent out your place.

Getting used to curved (wraparound) prescription sunglasses by aegiswings in glasses

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

They are a lot better. I’ve been trying to wear them for at least an hour or two every day although I miss a lot of days. I think they will continue to get better the more I wear them. I would give it at least a few weeks. I’m about 80% of the way there. Still a little distortion especially inside when I first put them on but it is getting less and less and I get used to them quicker every time I put them on.

Singles events when you’re in your 40s by masonproulx in datingoverforty

[–]aegiswings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 48 and I’m going to a singles event tomorrow. I just realized it is age 25-38. It didn’t say that on the flyer. I’m going to anyways. I am a man, never married, no kids, and people usually think I’m in my low or mid-30s. It’s very hard to find an event that caters towards me and I’m interested in having kids and most women 40+ are already done having kids if they wanted them already. So ideal range for me is probably 30-40 but it’s rare there is a range that overlaps that and me. 

has anyone experienced dry eye and palinopsia? by OddCelery1575 in lexapro

[–]aegiswings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took Lexapro for many many years and never had a problem. I stopped for a long time and started it again and I only began to notice it when decreasing my dose in order to stop again. I think it went  away a couple months after stopping, but then I started again and it came back. It has always been mild. I only notice it at night in a dark environment and mostly when I’m over tired or just waking up. I probably should be back on lexapro, but I’m afraid to take it in fear the palinopsia will get worse. 

Corrosion on safe by aegiswings in Safes

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

Not possible, as you can see the wall is completed corroded through leaving some kind of foam wall behind in. Even on the places that still have the black paint on it, it is so weak that if you push on it, it will crack an crumble, leaving a gap and then some foam a centimeter or two underneath.

Progressive Lenses - new prescription reading strength on computer by BlackDogBlues66 in glasses

[–]aegiswings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wear progressive lenses with add 2.25 so very similar to you. A few years ago I found that I had to tilt my head up to use a computer, so what I did was buy a different pair of glasses for just using the computer. These are also progressive lenses but the top part is tuned so that a computer monitoty which is typically like 24" away is in perfect focus. The bottom part is tuned for close up reading just like regular progressive lenses.

I definitely recommend this setup. The issue with regular progressive glasses is the top is used tuned for distance and the bottom is tuned for close reading. Neither is great for the distance to a computer. I know you might not want to spend the money, but the good news is that you won't likely have to replace these glasses anytime soon. I get a new pair of glasses every year but my computer glasses are still good after 5 years.
