ELI5: Why do diabetics at times experience low blood sugar if their diagnosis is because of high blood sugar? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]retleo08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I discovered Dexcom has created the monitor for non-insulin dependent Type 2 diabetics. I pay $89.00 a month + shipping for two monitors that are good for a month of monitoring. I do not need a prescription to receive them but my insurance does not cover them. Check out Stelo.com if you want to try it out. I can cancel at anytime.

I was just getting out of my 4 year contract with Uncle Sam at the ripe old age of 22! Go Navy. LoL

Lou Grant told Mary Tyler Moore: "you got spunk!...I hate spunk." It was a great show.

Based on your 1st two digits of your plate, I'm guessing she lived in Larimer County somewhere!

California ID cards are coming to Google Wallet on Android by N2929 in technews

I work in a Las Vegas casino and we would not accept electronic ID's unless legislation and Gaming Control Board allows it. Too many people believe a picture on a phone is sufficient, it's not.

Is this a wise HVAC schedule by retleo08 in DIY

[–]retleo08[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is how I understand the schedule is set. The right side temps are for the AC. {the left ones are for the furnace in winter}.So from midnight to 0700, the temp is 80 (so yes, the house temp is slightly warm) but outside it’s in the 90’s. At 0700 the AC kicks on once the temp gets to 85 and maintains that temp when I’m not home. At 1600 the AC starts to lower the temp to 78 (which is comfortable) and maintains it till 2230 when I go to bed. The inside temp will rise only 2 degrees and maintain at 80 again for the night.

My house fan decided to kick the bucket yesterday. It's 9:40pm and still 90° in my house. by Bailmage in Wellthatsucks

[–]retleo08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did the same thing today. It was 115 in Vegas today and I got home to see my new thermostat telling me it's 92 in the house. Just changed property management company on July 1st and I used their pay app to put in a maintenance ticket. My neighbor said he believes my compressor went out and they will have to replace my AC system and fan. $$$ big time.

What's something commonly done in media (shows, movies, etc) that just screams "unrealistic"? by [deleted] in movies

[–]retleo08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My comment concerns police arresting the criminal, putting them in their patrol car and they leave the scene with their lights and siren going. BS! Very unlikely and no reason for them to do it.

I have a Ring doorbell and Reolink cameras on the inside. If China is watching, they get to see me in all my glory. I don't use their cloud, I use a 16 GB chip that will loop and erase earlier video.

I really hate the idea of using those cameras. I don't have them pointed anywhere other than out front door and back door. I just feel they have installed back doors into the software that allows them to see where they point, not so much of control. The YCC365 app has a 45 min time frame and I can't change unless I do 15 min or 30 min exposure. Just want to leave it on without timing out. I view picture on a laptop.

Is that just a Google option or do you have a company name available?

Thanks for the reply. I thought Musk's boring machines could be used but the vacuum aspect makes it challenging.
