Paying for CNBC+

Just when I thought my opinion of CNBC and their customer service couldn’t get any lower, they managed to surprise me. After canceling DirecTV, I realized I missed having CNBC on in the background, so I figured their $50 per year option was a reasonable deal. I reached out to them (see my email labeled “Mine”), and their response was incredibly disappointing. If that’s their attitude, Bloomberg—especially considering it’s free—is just as good, if not better.

Mine:

"I canceled my DirecTV MyNews subscription because the price is increasing again, and I miss having CNBC on in the background while I work. I found your $99-per-year subscription, and I was told there’s a discount code, CNBC50, that should take 50% off the first year and bring the price down to about $50 plus tax, but it isn’t working when I try to sign up and pay. Could you please help me apply that discount or provide another code?"

CNBC response:

As checked with our team, the promo code CNBC50 is not associated with CNBC+.

Out of curiosity are you guys financing these watches or paying “cash” ?

Watering

I’m worried I might be overwatering or underwatering my fig after previously damaging it by underwatering. Has anyone used a moisture meter like this? If so, I’d appreciate any advice on how to use it and what readings I should watch for.

Help identify

I bought a few of these at Lowe’s today and would love some help identifying them.

I bought a few 1-gallon figs, and most seem fine except this Brown Turkey. After potting, I was watering twice a week in full sun, but it started showing heat stress and the leaves began wilting. I moved it to mostly shade and switched to watering every other day, and it did well for a few weeks. Then I moved it back into full sun and kept the every-other-day watering, but now it’s stressing again. I can’t tell whether the problem is overwatering or heat, and I’d really appreciate some advice before it dies and I mess up the others. I also have four 5-gallon figs on order, so I want to get this figured out as soon as possible.

Looking for advice from the community, especially from other Labrador owners who’ve dealt with recurring ear infections.

My dog has been to the vet several times over the past year for ear infections, and each time they’ve said it’s yeast. They clean his ears and send me home with a cleaner, but the issue keeps coming back. The last time, they recommended switching him to salmon-based food, which I did about four months ago.

Over the past week, he’s started licking his paws nonstop again, which makes me think the underlying issue may still be there. Rather than going back to the vet immediately, I ordered Zymox Plus online, and it does seem to be helping somewhat. That said, I still notice a sloshing sound when I massage his ears.

I’m honestly frustrated with our current vet because this will be the fourth visit for the same problem. I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has gone through something similar with their Labrador, especially what finally helped.
