14 daily doses of miralax in 2 hours. It is... effective.

I have a family history, mother and grandmother. My mom died of colon cancer at 53. I'm well served by the extra sensitivity of the direct diagnostic (99% vs 80%), plus ability to remove polyps on the spot.

Fuck colonsocopy prep. That is all.

Ladies and gentleman, a $20,000 bucket. Jesus that was a lot of work.

Multiplay is good couch co-op but not worth playing twice to experience.

$350k plus monthly fees starting at $5k. https://www.ventanabybuckner.com/fees-and-pricing/

Given the horrid state of elder care facilities this is a fantastically unappealing option, IMO. It certainly won't obviously save you money if you're moving somewhere you'd actually want to live (costs can be above 100k/yr for a private room with nursing). When my in-laws age out of the ability...

In fairness, the frequency with which obese people actually enact successful, long-term lifestyle change is near zero. I can totally imagine being jaded as a doctor. Mine wants me to try diet and weight loss first, which I'm fine with. I've been meaning to lose 15 lbs for a while. When I was...

If it's any consolation, when my mom died at age 53 I was 100% convinced my dad would wall up for the rest of his life and slowly evaporate. Instead he grieved for a few years, got into shape, took up a new hobby, forced himself to make some friends, and has now been happily married for almost...

We honestly don't use it that much. Some gaming on weekend mornings, movies a couple times a month usually 1080p from my media server. It's definitely not worth the extra money, it was just the first time I saw a non-phone OLED in person and was impressed. Biggest factor would honestly be the...

So I'm in the market for a new TV as we moved this year and our living room setup is much farther from the TV with more wall space than we had before. I just browsed around Costco thinking that I'd get a 55-65'' LCD, but holy fuck the OLEDs look purdy. I didn't want to triple my budget, though...

Right. My point is if they had any idea what they were doing she would have been out of the house in five seconds without a scratch.

This is why every adult should have some basic experience with wrestling or grappling. The most disturbing thing about this video is two grown men can't get a woman they outpower by at least 50% out of a doorway. Mostly unrelated:

Yeah, I spoke sloppily. I should have said that he promotes aggressive lipid management in general through medication. In that clip he's still recommending the use of statins, though at lower dosages than are sometimes prescribed and switching to something else if side effects arise. I guess he...

It's worth researching the counter-arguments on some of these, too, not that I don't appreciate the information or find it useful. There are notable figures who seem to have their heads on straight and are current on the research (Attia) who seem pretty well convinced that LDL is the devil and...

I'm slightly impressed with 8BitDo's service. I had an intelligent exchange with a support rep where they had me go through meaningful testing, believed my results, and volunteered to ship me a new unit since I was under the year warranty. Edit: Replacement received in 2 weeks. Would buy again...

180 LDL of target 100. Total cholesterol 265.

Anyone here on statins? My LDL turned out super high this year despite my otherwise being in pretty good shape, good blood pressure, diet and regular exercise, etc. I'm not super stoked about being on perpetual medication but I don't really want a heart attack or stroke either. What are...

Weight (wood is heavier) vs cost (metal is more expensive) vs skill (metal is trickier to build) vs durability.

Wow, games are getting very specific these days. Free on the Epic store right now:

Literally everything in this post other than your cosplay is wrong.

Just FYI if anyone's in the Makita LXT ecosystem. Home Depot has a sale running for 2x 5Ah batteries + charger with a "free" tool of your choice for $200. I don't think I've seen a better deal recently. I picked up a multitool, and I already owned the blower and love it...

Yes, I've tried every firmware version available.

I just tried to get my 8bitdo Pro 2 to work with my Switch. After a couple hours of banging my head on it, I discovered the root of all my previous connection problems. The mode switch on the back doesn't actually work and the controller is perpetually in Android mode. I disassembled the...

Also he was pretty clearly making it up as he went along, not that that's necessarily a bad thing.

I've tried Eero and Orbi. Bad experiences with both. I eventually ponied up and got a Ubiquiti UDM-Pro (the Dream Machine is probably good enough but was out of stock when I needed it) and set up several U6 Pro PoE ceiling mounted access points. I'm in the process of expanding the system to...

Been playing Mario Wonder with my kids. Great game (and much more forgiving multiplay than NSMB). Very successfully treads the thin line between insanely trippy and imaginative fun.

You can just use appropriate screws and attach it to whatever backing material you want. You could probably even use construction adhesive for the bracket if you can't make any holes.

From Reddit: "A couple things of note for those looking at using RH to capture the 1% match. The match only applies to contributions that come from an external linked bank account. If you already have money in a regular taxable Robinhood brokerage account and use it to fund your IRA, Robinhood...

There's a 365th day at the end of the year that is a holiday and does not belong to a week or month, and a second one on leap years. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Fixed_Calendar

Yeah, I wouldn't mind a bad year to do this in. My dad did this in the interim between retiring from his corporate jobs and opening a consultancy. Made bank in tax savings. Sadly, things are going well for me and my wife. #firstworldproblems

Note that the tax implications get muddy if you have existing, funded, traditional IRAs. Also, you may be exposed to future penalties if the IRS decides this is not legitimate and doesn't grandfather previous users. https://www.schwab.com/learn/story/backdoor-roth-is-it-right-you

Why invest the emotional energy?

That shit would drive me nuts. Two monitors it is.

Two main ovens ovens, one warming oven, infrared broiler, a plate warmer, and a bread proofer. My grandmother would have fucking loved this thing. http://www.antiquegasstoves.com/pages/5850-1.html I tried to GIS for "Grandma's kitchen" but it keeps showing photos of what I grew up with. I...

I'm still driving my '02 Accord. Fucking car just will not die and I'm too cheap to replace something that still works. Not mine, but same dash.

How does this play with games that like to be in fullscreen/windowless mode?

Dude has at least five independent brains.
