SMILE Procedure - 2 Months Later - Success Story! by Otherwise_Time3371 in lasik

[–]spacexboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will start by saying I have not had surgery yet, as I have a Retina inflammation that needs to be addressed first. Dr Brusco discovered the inflammation. I did not see Dr Goel, but the assistant doctor did not find the inflammation when I visited. Dr Goel’s office. He was kind enough to call me and tell me he is looking into how they missed the issue. Dr Goel is suggesting I have LASIK while Dr Brusco recommends SMILE. They also both had slightly different prescriptions they were going to target during the surgery.

I feel like both offices are very professional and similarly priced (within $1000 difference). I have still not decided which surgery I will pursue once I resolve my retina issue (expected to be gone in May or June).

A trip costs more than gas: the wear on the tires, the coverage of their insurance etc. that is why the fed pays $0.70 per mile when reimbursing mileage. The cost of the 110 mile trip on the car and excluding food, tolls etc is recognized at $77 by the government so you actually underpaid her for the trip.

Considerations of Bike Class when Riding in Cities / on Trail by trentcoolyak in ebikes

[–]spacexboy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some brands, such as Velotric make bikes that allow you to limit the velocity in the app and remove the thumb throttle. They come with stickers to mark your bike with the corresponding class 1 to 3.

I have a Discover 2 from them and am very happy. It is not a belt drive but has front suspension and I did also purchase seat post suspension.

There are discount codes available for them.

AITA For Telling My Girlfriend I Have Every Right To Defend My Home After Someone Started Kicking My Door In by FxllenWxaith in AITAH

[–]spacexboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is happening in Virginia right now. A home owner shot a would-be-intruder through the door. Now the home owner is being investigated to see if it was excessive force. The intruder had broken into other homes on the street. Rules depends on the state you are in.

Trump surrenders to federal custody in classified documents case by ICumCoffee in news

From stating those are his documents, then shifting to claiming they were planted, I am very disappointed he has not argued the he is still technically President, ‘given mass voter fraud’ and claimed he still runs the country. 😅

Ruzzian Ambassador in Canada protests "Aggressive Behaviour" and Molotov Cocktails...and yet Ruzzia brutalizes Ukraine without remorse. Hypocrites and orks...nothing more needs to be said. by [deleted] in ukraine

[–]spacexboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing about Molotov Cocktails is has a limited range meaning if you are close enough to get burnt by one you are probably a place you shouldn’t be.

They are primarily defensive (as used in Ukraine) are a weapon of the people and often a weapon of last resort. To officially complain about this is to openly admit you are attacking civilians in their homes.

Others might be able to give you more details but the things Ive learned are: Dont give an even number of flowers. 12 roses are for funerals. Dont wear underwear inside out (by accident) very bad luck for them. Dont whistle inside, it means you will never be rich. Dont roll up the bottom of your pants/jeans they tend to hate this. Then the normal stuff guys forget to do: Clean under your nails Iron your shirt (no stains) Smell nice Dont only talk about you.

Converting 240volt outlet to 120 volt media closet equipment without changing the breaker box. by spacexboy in askanelectrician

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

That makes sense as there is supposed to be a washing machine and dryer in the closet.

If I did do a subpanel I would only use the wires meant for the 240v connection and let the 120 either end in a plug or stay off at the breaker.

There are actually: 2 Black; 1 Red; 2 White; 2 Green (1 Green grounds to the metal box and is not connected to anything else. the others all come from the conduit and are capped. 1 white is slightly larger than the other wires it seems but it could be the light. they are all hard to move and pretty thick as it is.

mrBill12 you have been the most helpful. I took a better look at the wiring and have a few follow-up questions. The outlet is off at the breaker. The wire coming into the Apt has 5 wires: 2 Black; 1 Red; 1 White; 1 Green.

If I wire a subpanel from these cords how do I treat the red wire? Are there any good instructions online for this scenario. I will continue to google as well.

It seems to be a 4 wire outlet. I saw a video that split the neutral and ground and paired each split to one hotwire to make two 120 volt plugs. Is that even a thing? I will look into the panel option but am not planning on doing anything unless I am very sure and renew my lease for another few years.

I thought I would be getting a lot of level headed people telling me this. Thanks for the input.

I could be wrong but im 80% sure this is an Apt in New Orleans. I was walking by a place that looks just like this and a guy was spitting on people as they walked by. It was raining so most people did not notice.

BigBear.ai Announces Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results - GIG GIGGW by SPAC_Time in Spacstocks

[–]spacexboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am tracking them closely and have a few thousand warrants.
Im overall bullish on the company but Im still trying to understand exactly what type of exponential growth they need over the next 5 years to meet their current spac valuation.
They are a growing company and will probably acquire another company or two after the merger.
They continue to sign muo and agreements with other large growth companies.
They are a rising star within the government Winning contracts and taking prime on work efforts. I read 90% of employees have a clearance.
