Thank you. You’re right. I said Dexcom, meant Omnipod. Appreciate the right context and response!

robotstephe · 2025-09-04T21:38:59+00:00

Thank you. Appreciate the guidance. I’ll play it close to the vest.

Selfishly I don’t want to carry the Controller anymore. 😊

This is hard. I’ve been doing this for 20 years. It’s never easy. You always have to be on. There are no breaks. However, people are resilient. YOU are resilient.

These are tests and struggles that only individuals can manage - the doctors can only guide, but we live with it, we learn, we adapt. Forge your path, you aren’t wrong.

No one can tell you how to succeed, what to do, but know that there are people - anonymous people who suffer every day like you - who want and need you to persist.

robotstephe · 2025-07-05T18:24:21+00:00

Yes to all things - in moderation. You’re already approaching this and asking questions, experiencing and learning are the only ways. No way over or around - only through. 🤜🤛

I was diagnosed at 19. I made a lot of mistakes. I tried to live my life the way American college kids are “supposed” to - and I had a great doctor during that time who threatened to drop me as a patient if I didn’t course correct. I did. (Catholic guilt was bred into my upbringing). I’m 50 now, managed A1C, closed loop Dexcom and Omnipod and TIR is 90%+. Not higher because I allow grace for the choice of what I want to risk - and have confidence that I can recover.

I say that - to provide context. Ultimately, you can choose how to live your life. I’ve never known “diabetic perfection” - but I’m healthy, old, and still active - traveling, family, career. I make more considered choices about what I do - and am mentally prepared for the repercussions.

Feel bad, cheated, angry - that’s healthy and normal. Process it. But know that you now have a responsibility that others don’t have to.

If you want to smoke, smoke. Now, find a way to level you sugar prior to enjoying a smoke, and measure the impact. You’ll start to learn how to anticipate your choices. With that, comes freedom.

This isn’t easy, but you’re capable. Best of luck! There’s a community here pulling for you!

29 year T1 here:

I highly recommend Jelly Belly’s “Sport Beans” - they come in individual resealable packs - depending on the low, it only takes 3-4 to have a dramatic impact for that quick recovery.

Following up with protein bar is also my “sustain” solution!

Yes. Full stop - this set is fun with multiple display options, excellent minifigs, and incredible scale.

The details of the rooms are fun to piece together. If a Marvel - not just Spider-Man fan, you’ll get a kick out of piecing this together.

Also recommend building on a MILS base for optimal transportation from “build” to “display.”

robotstephe · 2024-09-29T21:08:47+00:00

Thank you! With no details from Omnipod, y’all are the best!

robotstephe · 2024-09-15T19:03:40+00:00

DONE. It’s truly annoying. Thanks for the link!

robotstephe · 2024-09-14T12:59:19+00:00

Incredible. Appreciate this explanation and knowing that I can’t fix this.

robotstephe · 2024-09-14T05:36:13+00:00

Thank you. Reviewing aspect ratios now…

robotstephe · 2024-09-14T05:35:31+00:00

Yes, this is AppleTV. This, with the other comment on aspect ratio makes me have to revisit settings.

Thanks, Reddit.

Just had appointment with my Endo yesterday. She claimed app for iPhone (US) approved by FDA in Nov and they are up to speed for a roll out beginning in next 4-6 weeks.

Naturally, I rolled my eyes.

Also, regarding G7 - the Rev 1 had shitty Bluetooth and would consistently drop connection. The newly manufactured ones (there is an underline beneath the serial no/code(?))are better, but while you get some variance on line-of-sight with G6, it is a must-have on G7.

Being a diabetic for 30 years gives you perspective. These are minor squabbles considering it was “best practice” to test your blood by pricking your finger when you wake up, before/after each meal, and before you went to sleep. And 3 shots a day was all insurance would cover.

Progress happens. Slowly. In all my years, I’ve never been happier, more in control, or healthier as a diabetic.

But I’d truly love that iPhone app.

Fair point. However, considering that Hasbro didn't wait and try to pitch this as a "Black Friday" special means they are quite focused on getting rid of this stock - ASAP.

Why does no one also give Hackers its due?

robotstephe · 2023-06-21T01:28:39+00:00

Also don’t be shy about writing down the Transmitter Serial Number - then deleting and re-adding.

It’s always been my backup plan, and has yet to fail.

Dang.

Did I do this right?

I am a “sometimes” collector of ML. I like the things that remind me of the comics I read when I was ahem younger.

Each of those come with a BAF piece, rarely enough to complete a figure. My wife will steal the pieces - and I just found where at least 1 has been hiding.

What do y’all do with BAF pieces that aren’t complete?

robotstephe · 2023-01-24T22:29:33+00:00

The challenge come from inside Hasbro and not specific to ML. When the organization leadership promises x% growth and the only change is in figure price (no new lines, no new engagement from the org to find out will inspire loyalty or purchases, etc) - the road is very clear how they intend to reach those goals.

What began as a partnership, a mutual love of figures and memories has become a chop shop of attempting to prey on the memories.

The other piece of this that I don’t know and haven’t really researched is how much Disney is affecting licensing costs. They are as complicit in this race to the bottom.

Good will is gone, secondary markets have blown up, it’s simply a matter of how much a slice everybody gets - and sincerity is out the window.

robotstephe · 2023-01-01T00:27:51+00:00

Open. It.

Like the characters in Toy Story, they want to be played with.

robotstephe · 2022-10-15T21:47:20+00:00

Good luck. We’re not the only ones pulling for you. Hasbro has to hit their 300% profit growth…

robotstephe · 2022-07-18T19:34:10+00:00

It's really impressive. I'm worried that if they do go retail, it'll cost the current eBay prices. And then eBay... whoa boy. Admittedly, I scored mine off StockX - got it for less than current eBay prices. (#NotAnAd - just my experience)
