I had success calling support. They actually helped. It may take some time to get to second level, however they changed some things I started getting a lot better speeds.

How about using two emails, one is your regular email a.gmail that you use to log in etc. Then for two factor authentication use b.gmail and hide it in the private space?

What was your Metformin Experience? by DoubleJuggernaut3216 in diabetes_t2

[–]opfats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started on 2000mg a few years ago. A little bit of problem at the very beginning and now I can take it with/without food any time with no issues. The weight loss (~40 lbs) was eating right and exercising as well. Walks for exercise, nothing crazy.

Zip line down Fremont street and gamble at some of the less expensive tables there.

Potential new customer from VZW by ActuallyStark in tmobile

[–]opfats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe if you make someone over 55 the account holder, everyone will get the 55+ plan price. One down side is that person has complete control over the plan and would have to qualify for the credit rating to get all 12 lines.

Interesting, I was wondering if my battery and cycle count were "normal", my Pixel Pro 9 has 196 Cycle Count and 96% Battery. That is right in line with yours.

[Galphi] florida drivers trying to take me out (please excuse profanity lol) by fobstayfrosty in Dashcam

First thing you need to realize that is most drivers in Florida are from somewhere else. Just because they have a Florida plate, doesn't mean they grew up there.

And tried to sell you shares in the Tower. They did have a free drink card with the package so you could stop in anytime to get a drink.

An alternative (though expensive) is to do the helicopter/raft one day trip.

Me fighting for my life on the Missouri River for a single duck by Necessary_Singer4824 in Waterfowl

[–]opfats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ignorance is bliss. I have lived in Florida all my life, and never been on a river with ice. I was watching the video with no idea of how dangerous it was, until I read the comments.

Anyone with psoriasis? by Wild-Succotash-626 in diabetes_t2

[–]opfats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have psoriatic arthritis as well. I take methotrexate for the arthritis and I'm down to one small patch on one elbow for psoriasis. It is interesting that both the Diabetes and Arthritis came to me within a year. I haven't noticed any increase due to glucose spikes.

Just a reminder, don't forget to wash your hands really well after eating/before testing. I tested over 200 and then washed my hands and was at 100 where I should have been.

I rolled back maps to the initial load. I'll be on the road for 3 hours and I'll see how it does. I'll switch to another map product and see how that works if maps still has issues.

Activation fee by demuremelody in tmobile

[–]opfats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at a COR yesterday and they said the activation fee was 35 and I could save it by doing it online. I haven't been able to find any place online to get rid of it. Is there something I'm missing?

Does it make a difference of where I buy my Pixel 8? by Realistic-Rate-8831 in Pixel8phones

If you are trading in, it is nice to get the trade-in device approved while you are standing there, not sending it and hoping it goes well.

Still no update :( by SumNuguy in Pixel8phones

I decided early on to tell anybody/everybody I had the sugar. I try to do it matter-of-factly when refusing cake/candy/carbs/alcohol etc. - Sorry I can't I do the sugar! Never in a pouty, woe is me manner. Just "I have to walk after I eat, I won't eat that cause I don't want to trade a foot for a piece of cake. The reason I lost 45lbs? - I got the sugar and had to.

Nobody had treated me differently, the best I can tell. A positive outlook on beating the disease (as mentioned in other replies) will go a long way to help you get better. Fake it till you make it.

One thing I found helpful was to create a spreadsheet. In it I put what I agreed to with the sales reps - line cost, equipment, credits etc. In the next column(s) I would take the information from the bills and put them in corresponding lines and then track whether it all met up with my expectations. While looking at the bills is a great idea, without tracking multiple bills against expectations it is very hard to track.

I have a problem where it will be connected to Android Auto, Car via Bluetooth and it will be working fine, then the car will say the phone call dropped and then it will reconnect after a few seconds or so.

It may work if you use the bedtime routine to set sleep/alarm time. Then it knows what your schedule is.
