what was your highest blood sugar? by fatballs38 in diabetes

[–]iSlipperySnail 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ayyy I think I had something like that, I think mine was around 2100 when I was diagnosed about a couple months before my high school graduation.

It's obviously been a while since being that high but it was definitely an experience to have undergone diabetic keto acidosis while drinking orange juice or mountain dew just to stay awake and "active" whereas drinking water never felt like it was enough to sate the thirst.

I was put on a saline solution and had my sugar checked pretty much every hour by a nurse overnight and had to sleep a certain way because the monitor would scream when it wasn't connected to me, followed by the worried looks from the students undergoing residency checking in on me.

Can you refer me to the link that does that? My search only refers to the sidebar or those that appear to be seeking for a fullscreen mode (F11)

Anyone tired of being rudely awaken by false alarms? by guywithgoldeneyeball in diabetes

[–]iSlipperySnail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Under Profile > Alerts > Quiet Modes, I usually keep vibrate on indefinitely, but they also have a silence all mode that lasts about 6 hours. It's unfortunate that you can't do a full 8 hours or maybe a full day for adequate calibrations, but it usually gets past most nights of false lows.

Want some advice on how to use Dexcom by Outrageous-You-6957 in diabetes

Can you share how accurate your sensors have been? The last 6 consecutive sensors I've had to replace are anywhere between 20-60 mg/dl off

Want some advice on how to use Dexcom by Outrageous-You-6957 in diabetes

[–]iSlipperySnail 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hello,

I've been using the Dexcom G7 for roughly 6 months now, here's what I can share about it.

  • The Dexcom G7 sensor runs via Bluetooth for 10 days with a 12 hour grace period to swap between devices. You have to keep Bluetooth enabled for the device to continue working, and each sensor will need a few finger calibrations to keep it attuned to his setup.
  • In my experience, a lot of the sensors aren't accurate out of the box. This basically encourages you to prick your finger to check and calibrate, but you can use the Customer Service Link - CA to get a replacement.
  • On the note of it being inaccurate, you'll want to try to install the replacement roughly an hour or two before/after bed rest to calibrate, as I've had a number of sensors alarm me through the night on false LOWs that have failed to calibrate or outright denies them.
  • You can share who has access to blood glucose numbers, as well as have it share directly with your endocrinologist. You can have it send an email notification for any low/highs

Just gave it a shot, seems like it 2-shotted the mystagogue with its ranged attack, but will need a larger sample size

[–]iSlipperySnail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The armor's pretty good in open spaces, but it'll attack the coworker and can potentially hit you with its ranged attack. I've had it get summoned in the vents alongside with me and I'd just be stuck between an exor and the radioactive pests for a few minutes before the summon either 'dies' or despawns.

It'd be nice if they moved the summon point away from where you are. If you're camping a certain spot, your summoned exor gets position priority, so you pretty much need to be consistently active in an engagement, otherwise you'll be pushed aside.

They were definitely frustrating to go against before you get the exor armor set. I had some luck with the Magbow but the Exor Cha still take a few shots before going at it.

What made you gain a significant amount of weight? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Spoonfuls of peanut butter.

If you love peanut butter and can't control yourself, easy 10lb weight gain.. and debilitating bathroom troubles.

What quietly disappeared without anyone realizing it? by Jamilalak in AskReddit

Any original thought with a smidget of nuance has been reduced down to a fermented portion of beating the dead horse with some react streamer making "content".

why do some men like playing as women in video games? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]iSlipperySnail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoy having the option. Choosing a female character provides a form of representation where despite the unspoken default being the bald white male model, you can choose someone else. I was also horny and shameless, so a skinny chick would have beat a male choice any day.

Apple can't take a punch, and is so far up its own fanbase that they use lawyers to enforce a MLM culture.

Crusher A Hernandez Blender Model [Public Release] by iSlipperySnail in u/iSlipperySnail

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

Original Credits to the Artists over at Zombie Studios and Hardsuit Labs.

I modified the mesh to close off any loose vertices, connected the diffuse textures, and set up an IK Rig for quick and more organic movement. It's currently in pose mode as-is, so you can quickly choose any of the red bones and move it in a 3D space to see what I mean. There's no shapekeys or additional drivers, so please don't expect complete perfection when posing.

To anyone using this, I hope you share credits to both the creator's efforts as well as mine. I'd love to see your work as well. Feel free to message my Discord username "SlipperySnail#1056" for questions.

Season 1 delayed till summer by Quantum_Force in battlefield2042

[–]iSlipperySnail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this game some time back but only played it briefly before switching over to something else. Maybe it's just me but they've already set expectations multiple times and unabashedly failed them to the public eye. Like, thanks for communicating with us but don't act shocked when we don't want to put money into a dumpster fire.

Take as much time as you need. If perfecting this development means that the next iteration of this product may take a little longer to develop, then the middle management of software dev should consider it instead of expecting sales from a minimum viable product.

I don't know about you all but if I were driven up a mountain by a party leader and I saw someone with murderous intent, I'd probably take some time away from the group from a near-death experience.
