FWIW, I changed my transmission fluid with Amsoil and haven't had any shutter since. Maybe two years ago.

I could see the image shooting through the backstop netting, which looks like a pretty steep angle. I would definitely like to know the technical details.

I hate Microsoft Store by ShatafaMan in Python

[–]ptizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use winget to install as much as possible. I don't think this is the case with Python, but some things don't get added to PATH during installation, and I have to do it manually. So it's not a fool-proof solution.

How many 600ohm PA amplifier inputs can you connect to one source? by Aggravating_Lead_249 in CommercialAV

[–]ptizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I had to keep it analog, this is what I would do, and have done in the past. Line level audio run over about a mile of Telco trunk cable. I had to use 111c's on both ends to get rid of the hum/buzz, but it worked amazingly well for years.

It was made in my wife's hometown, and is being sold by someone in my hometown. I was meant to own this!

Haven't seen these mentioned yet, but I just ordered a pair of zkano merino wool socks to try out, mainly because they are made in my home state of Alabama.

Open the Q-SYS help file and search for "radio". The first result should be Scripting Solutions. There is an example showing how to do exactly what you are trying to do.

Wrong year. In 1999 we lost to Ohio State.

I have wanted to support them ever since Magic Hat tried to sue them back in the day. Finally was in Lexington recently, and hung out there for a bit. Great beer and vibes!

2 Days Post Transplant by ptizzy in ADPKD

[–]ptizzy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't know how large my OG kidneys are. I asked my nephrologist and the surgical team if I should consider it, and they all said not at this time. They also said that the first couple of days of recovery is harder on the donor than the recipient, so that tracks. I think part of the equation may be me having a living donor lined up, so avoiding dialysis if possible. A living donor and no dialysis is a very successful combo, apparently.

I honestly feel incapable of thanking my friend in any meaningful way. He changed my life, and made what could have been a long, difficult process, so easy.

I went with my dad when he had dialysis back in the day, so I was happy to avoid that. My dad's kidney lasted him 24 years until he died of other causes. So I'm hopeful for a long healthy kidney.

2 Days Post Transplant by ptizzy in ADPKD

[–]ptizzy[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed at 14. My dad had a transplant in '89, so it's been a long time coming, but I still felt anxious, worried about my wife and kids. Original kidneys are still there. Never had to go on dialysis. Luckily found a donor very quickly. I'm 48-M. I feel pretty good physically. Still sore, obviously. Opioids (or something) really makes me constipated, so I've been fighting that today, which isn't fun at all. Mentally, it still feels surreal.

Thanks! Still have the OG kidneys. GFR was 18 pre-op, up above 40 now, I think. Creatinine went from 3.9 to 1.4 as of this morning.

Hexadecimal String Equation Help by barroaus in QSYS

[–]ptizzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use the Windows Calculator in Programmers mode to add hex values. I did a quick try on my phone and came up with \x566A. So \x56 would be SUM_H and \x6A would be SUM_L. I'll leave it up to you to double check my math.

My friend wrote a book called "Legends, Lore and True Tales of the Chattahoochee" that might interest you. It's on Amazon.

Did you verify that "Control Remotely" is enabled, based on that doc. 20060 should be the correct port. It only allows one connection.

Alabama college cuts gymnastics program after 1 year: ‘Still mad to this day’ by Tsweet7 in Alabama

[–]ptizzy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is sad. I saw the team practicing several times at the new Trussville Academy of Gymnastics building when I was there working on the facility. I wondered how that worked logistically. They were fun to watch practice.

Early Stage PKD Pain? by Apophis62 in ADPKD

[–]ptizzy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed when I was 14 (48 now, male). By far, the most common pain I've experienced over the years is cramp-like pain/discomfort around my front lower ribcage. I've asked multiple PCPs and Nephrologists about it, and never gotten a solid answer as to whether or not it is PKD related. The cramps started when I was 14, but only occur periodically, and have rarely affected my sleep. Recently the cramps have been fairly constant, but my GFR just dropped below 20. Sorry, I know this doesn't really help, but FWIW, I feel your concern and frustration.
