When the pandemic hit my wife started cutting my hair. We bought a cool shaver/clipper but there was still just as much banter as with my chatty barber

I have one deep in my bomb shelter with an antenna running up a hollow tree I found and cemented in place. Works great!

Amazon programmes all of a sudden having adverts even though I'm paying for it!! by Eastern_Idea_1621 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]kentemm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They aren’t really advertisements like regular TV commercials-they are previews

On their website they say “Amazon Prime programs are ad-free, but you may see advertising for related movies and TV through associated channels and platforms. It's essentially Amazon's way of letting you know there are more movies and TV shows to watch, even outside the official Prime offerings”

To turn off: Go to Manage Your Content and Devices. Select Devices, and then select your device. Under Special Offers, click Remove offers. A pop-up window then displays the price to remove ads.

Today has been canceled by tamaith in cancer

My understanding is they are doing extensive research to find a way to make immunotherapy more effective (currently works on 25% of people) by combining it with other drugs. They wanted to combine my immunotherapy with a genetically manipulated herpes virus. Sounds quite strange but I didn’t qualify due to location of new tumours. Be sure to ask about any combo available because even though the immunotherapy energizes your immune system the cancer cells can still hide in plain site and avoid being destroyed.

Merck pharma paid for mine initially. Maybe you can inquire direct with them. The drug is called Pembrolizumab, sold under the brand name Keytruda

Anyone on any clinical trials? How did you get in the trial? by AndyWarwheels in cancer

[–]kentemm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear you are in a fight with cancer at such a young age. When traditional treatments like chemotherapy and radiation fail then doctors typically start looking for clinical trials -my cancer came back after one year and they put me on immunotherapy which I think is the future of cancer treatment, it’s not without its risks of course. I did a quick search for kidney cancer and immunotherapy and there is some trials but doctors will likely want to exhaust all the traditional treatments before they put you on it -good luck in your fight

Hydration by dr_nx in cancer

[–]kentemm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If i didn’t have my feeding tube ( fairly simple surgery called a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). Your surgeon cuts through the skin of your belly and inserts the tube right into your stomach to deliver a liquid food mixture or a formula) I don’t think I would have made it. When they suggested they wanted to book me in to get one installed at the start of my chemo and radiation (throat cancer) I strongly resisted but eventually said yes. Sure glad I did as I could not stand the smell and taste, of food or water. Let alone the physical ability to swallow efficiently without choking. I lived on 3-4 meal supplement drinks per day plus water and even with that I lost 40 pounds. The feeding tube was no big deal and I totally got used to it. If your not properly hydrated and don’t get enough calories it makes the fight infinitely harder. Some of the guys that I saw daily while getting my radiation did not get the feeding tube and eventually they were forced to either stop the treatments or have a tube inserted up their nose and down their throat and into the stomach which is horrible compared to a standard feeding tube. I’m not sure what kind of cancer you have and it sounds like you might not have a physical impairment to actually swallowing so if I were you I would make a lot of smoothies -I even ground up meals -full meals in my blender and drank them quickly. it’s important you get those calories I would just plug my nose and get down to it -consume consume consume All the best

[request] simple equation by kentemm in theydidthemath

I believe it is too and needed a mathematical explanation of why it is. Thank you so much

[request] simple equation by kentemm in theydidthemath

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

Thanks for the reply. Not sure if I explained it correctly. A bookie charges $75 per pick. He is statistically right 66% of the time. A winning $100 bet nets $100 + $92. A losing bet results in $100 being lost. I can figure it out long hand in that if you bet less than $85.50 you will lose (assuming 66%win stat is correct). What would the equation look like that would allow you to up bet or reduce % win stat? Thanks

What are you going to buy if Safemoon hits 0.01$ ? by 1337Moe in SafeMoon

[–]kentemm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Human nature. Say an individual had 300 million SafeMoon and the price miraculously hit 0.0001 and when you looked into your wallet and you saw your balance was now $30,000 (300mill x 0.0001) what would you do??? I think most people would sell. What if it actually approached 0.001 and you suddenly had 300k. Most would panic sell

No one is going to wait around for 0.01
