It is mostly painless. I use the Dexcom cgms. The only time there is some pain is when using the applicator that slaps the small hair thin needle along with a sticky patch in to your arm . After a few minutes I almost don't even notice its there other then when I stretch or bump the patch on something. You may get drops in readings or other weirdness if laying on it. Like laying on your side on the arm that has the patch in place. Much better then finger sticks 20 times a day leaving the tips of your fingers covered in bruises, pin pricks or just numb. There are some surgically placed cgms but they have to be replaced every few months. Those seem more intrusive as they have to cut open your arm to insert a small pill like device. That's a little different and requires a doctors appointment.

The more information you have of what's going on at the time the better when it comes to diabetes. I can catch low glucose trends before they become too low (sub 70s). I can also give myself insulin based on what I'm at instead of guessing how many carbohydrates I've consumed (150s and up). Food packages give you an average carbohydrate count, not an exact so this helps greatly. Food is not consistent and a person may react differently from one day to another depending on physical activity or anything that might happen. Even if you were to eat the same things from day to day there would be a variation.

I think the Ketone levels are a good addition to see what else is going on. It can only help figure out this puzzle.

Reminds me of my Imos days about 30 years ago. We used to make all sorts of random pizzas. Hawaiian, Mexican, breakfast, chicken wing, bbq, you name it. Even a few dares to thrown what was just swept up off of the floor. You'd be surprised what a bunch of teenagers would do for $100 back then.

It needs a thin layer of plain cream cheese, a little red sauce on top of that then some ham or Canadian bacon, cover in mixed provel and mozzarella cheese then add pineapple. If you want a little heat with the sweetness add jalapenos. Sprinkle with parmesan and oregano then cook to your crispiness.

Do airpods have cell cards to be able to transmit their gps location and data through a cell network? How do they "phone home" to be able to tattle on where they are? Ive never heard that they have this functionality beyond the range of bluetooth of the device they are paired with. Did the thieves attempt to pair them with their phone? Im curious.

Still, they found them on the street outside of the home. Surprised I haven't seen this on the local news.

Sadly yes, iTunes is still a thing. I manage a lot of Idevices and when people leave the company, almost no one does the required disable find my phone and wipe the things. So we have to use iTunes to wipe and update the phone to redeploy. I think that the pictures and videos are only one way and you canâ(TM)t write to the device otherwise. Not like an android where you can use it as a usb device and save things to it.

There are plenty of reason to have a SUV or truck.
Camping/glamping, boating, hunting, weekend trips, snow, off-roading and as others have mentioned home DYI or whatever you might need to load in the vehicle without making structural changes to your car.
You need room for coolers, dry foods, backpacks, tents, suitcases, towing a camper, firewood or whatever you want to bring on your trip. Your Audio would have you stacking crap on your roof and you still couldn't fit everything that a single person might want to bring along. I dont even want to think of a small Audi towing a boat, camper or a small trailer.
Those are some valid reasons why people would need an SUV or truck. Others have mentioned more.
Most years I take atleast a dozen weekend or longer trips to family land then there are the occasional further out trips. A car is too small for the things I need to bring along. I also have plenty of home use situations. Plenty of things that do not fit in to a small vehicle.

Where I work we have been dealing with this for about 2 weeks. Updates are staggered so not too much of an impact. Change the default browser from chrome to edge then back again. That fixes it sometimes.

Don't let the door hit you on the way in.

You don't have to use a Microsoft account on any version of windows 11 that I have setup for family, friends or at work. This included the home version and up. Just disconnect the machine from the network on your first boot after installing the OS. Use Libre office to get around the office licensing, use rufus to build your OS install usb drive (you can even set it to ignore the tpm requirement), once you have created a local account turn off the notifications for account protection in windows security then you can connect it to the network and run your updates.

I am not a fan of windows 11 and its been forced on our work computers. I just deal with it. Lots of issues with the new crappy menus...

I know something needs to be done to keep our rivers and lakes clean. We need to stop using crap that is toxic to, well, everything. I have a interest in this as I find fishing relaxing, enjoyable and tasty. I've been fishing as far back as I can remember and still go on week + long trips to enjoy everything about it.

I did look at their pdf and the testing locations because I was curious about where my family and I fish. The testing sites seem to be tilted toward places near large cities and eastern US. St. Louis is their main testing area in Missouri, yet only one spot in Kansas City. Those are probably the two dirtiest areas in Missouri. Though I do see that the great lakes are a problem almost everywhere on this side of the border. I wouldn't eat anything going down the Mississippi. They don't call it the muddy Mississippi for nothing...

Ive been to most of the best trout fishing areas in Missouri and they didn't test the two biggest springs or several of the lakes that I have been to for carp and bass. Here is a short list:

Table rock (branson)
Mark Twain (Hannibal)
Harry S Truman (Warsaw)
Bennet springs (Lebanon)
Montauk springs(Salem)

None of those lakes/springs/rivers were tested. It looks like they got a small part of the Meramec and Missouri rivers near St Louis but nothing else. So maybe they need to expand their testing. There are hundreds more stream and probably thousands more lakes, albeit small, they should be testing. That's just Missouri. There are large areas of the western US that look to be untested. So I would like more information.

I wouldn't be surprised if there were higher levels but I don't have the data to say good or bad.

Anyway, we always should try to keep things clean. We have done enough and its time to clean up for ourselves.

When speaking of cars, lifetime typically means the life of the vehicle while with the original owner. Like the lifetime warranties for specific things that are often sold with cars. They only apply to the owner who purchased it and it does not transfer to new owners. Each buyer will have to purchase their own license to use those features that have already been activated by a previous owner. So no, it probably wont increase the value of the car.

Sounds like someone found the "brown" note for hard drives. Get out your recorders!

You probably wont ever see all of the files. I run in to instances where the folder and file permissions are set in a way that even running things as admin it cant see or access them. Most likely set for the system to read it only. The windows directory and programdata folders are areas that i see this a lot when fighting things on users computers. Then like others mentioned there are compressed items like zips and cab.

Not speaking for the other person but, Autocad and Arcap products mainly. Many plugins like watergems or sewergems are used heavily in the water industry. Many other autodesk, esri and DWG products cant be used in linux without using vms. Then there is also the issue of video card drivers that the software uses to render/process things.
