Getting ready for the live Ronda Rousey fight on the 16th. I want to make sure I have a Premium slot to avoid any buffering issues. 1 slot open. I’m an Access Box power user, so the connection is always stable. Comment:
I’ve been trying different wallet tracking platforms lately and honestly most of them start feeling noisy after a while. A lot of tools show raw trades and profit screenshots, but they don’t really help you understand trader behavior over time.
The better platforms seem to focus more on consistency, patterns, sizing, and overall trading behavior instead of just a few winning trades. Curious what wallet analytics tools people here actually use regularly.
been reading through this newsletter for a while and decided to finally give affiliate a serious shot. running some traffic now but the offers im promoting barely convert. been told pharma and health verticals are where the real money is but im hesitant because of all the strict rules on most networks. anyone here working in that space? i saw true-meds mentioned somewhere and they seem lenient on approvals, anyone tried them? would love some real feedback before i commit
I’ve been doing a deep clean of my home office and realized I have a "bin of death" filled with old lithium-ion batteries, frayed charging cables, and a few bloated tablets. I know these shouldn't go in the regular bin because of the heavy metals and fire risks, but I’m struggling to find the best way to get rid of them responsibly.
Is it better to look for a local drop-off event, or are there professional services that actually guarantee these materials get broken down and reused in a circular economy? I want to make sure the plastic and precious metals are actually being reclaimed rather than just sitting in a different landfill overseas.
I've been on Mounjaro for about 14 months, and I'm within 5 pounds of my goal weight. My doctor has been great about prescribing the medication, but when I asked her what my maintenance plan should be, she basically just said "we'll figure it out when you get there." That's not super reassuring.
I read that people who stayed on full-dose tirzepatide largely maintained their weight reduction and cardiometabolic benefits, and participants who switched from tirzepatide or semaglutide to oral orforglipron (Foundayo) were able to keep most of their results. Another study found that most weight loss achieved with injectable drugs could be maintained by switching to the daily oral pill.
I’ve noticed that when my emotional state is calmer, everything else in life feels less complicated too.
Less overthinking. Less urgency. Less mental clutter.
Do people here see emotional regulation as part of simple living?
I play the violin in a regional symphony, and my declining hearing is beginning to mess with my intonation. I recently tested a premium brand of hearing devices, and the experience was awful. My instrument sounded artificial and wavy, almost like a highly compressed digital audio file. It felt like the anti-whistling software was actively fighting my higher strings, mistaking them for device feedback.
I keep reading that Widex is the holy grail for instrumentalists, but my current clinic doesn't carry them. Should I go through the hassle of finding a new specialist just for that specific manufacturer? Are there other options with a dedicated setting for live instruments that actually functions properly? I desperately need something that processes audio naturally rather than crushing the dynamics. Have any fellow players found a solution they truly rely on?
I'm 43. I have some wrinkles already. It's fine. Also I'd rather have wrinkles than diabetes complications but that's just me I guess.
I'll go first because this is still fresh and I need to vent. We're a small B2B consultancy (~35 people). Last month we lost a client worth roughly 15% of our annual revenue because we couldnt pass their vendor security assessment. They're in financial services and apparently under something called DORA they need to verify that every vendor they work with meets certain cybersecurity standards. We didnt even know what DORA was until they sent us a questionnaire we couldnt answer, mind you, we're EU based.
The questions were things like "how do you manage credential access across your organization" and "can you produce an audit log showing who accessed which systems in the last 90 days" and we just sat there staring at each other because the honest answer was "we dont" and "no". They gave us 30 days to remediate and we couldnt do it in time so they walked. A contract we spent 8 months building just gone because we never thought about password management or compliance documentation as something a company our size needed to worry about.
I cant even describe how frustrating it is to pour everything you have into winning a client and keeping them happy and then lose them over something that takes a week to fix. Nobody tells you when you start a business that the thing that kills you wont be a bad product or a bad team, itll be some regulatory line you didnt know existed. After they left I panicked and hired a consultant and after their audit, we've started implementing Passwork for credential management so we have proper access controls and audit trails, and Vanta for compliance automation so we can actually answer vendor questionnaires without scrambling every time. We're still setting both up now, it feels like putting on a seatbelt after the crash, but let's hope we're more ready for the next big client.
The whole experience has made me paranoid about what else im neglecting. Running a business is exhausting enough and EU regulations make it even harder. So, what about you? What did you ignore or put off that almost cost you everything? Im trying to build a list of blind spots so I dont get bit again. Thanks in advance!!
I’m in my early 20s and I’ve been thinking about getting liposuction, but I’m stuck on whether it’s better to just do it in the US or look outside the country.
The price difference abroad seems pretty big, which is tempting, but then I start thinking about recovery, flights, hotel, compression garments, follow-ups, and what happens if something goes wrong after I’m already home.
Also there’s just way too much stuff online. Some places look legit, then you find sketchy reviews. Some reviews seem real, some feel paid. TikTok makes everything look easy, Reddit makes everything sound scary, and clinic websites all say the same “safe / natural / experienced” stuff lol.
For anyone who got lipo abroad, was it actually worth it in the end? Or did the stress and extra planning cancel out the savings?
Also, how did you figure out what was actually trustworthy?
I'm on Mounjaro 7.5mg, 4 months in. Shot day is Friday night so I can recover Saturday, but "recover" means lying on the couch in a fog while my family lives their lives around me. My husband is a very understanding guy about the whole situation but I can tell he's getting a tad bit frustrated. My kids also ask me why I'm always "sleepy."
I understand that the drugs do just have this so I’m not trying to scare anyone, I just really need some reassurance and I need to ask if the fatigue ever goes away completely? It’s just been really a bother but I know it’s normal.
Matched with this girl last week, conversation was actually flowing for once , good banter, shared memes, she was replying fast and asking questions. I suggest grabbing coffee this weekend and boom… instant ghost. Read at 2pm, nothing since.This has happened to me like 8 times in the last two months. They seem engaged, even flirty, then the moment you try to take it offline they disappear like smoke.Are they just bored at work and using guys for entertainment? Scared of actually meeting? Or is the attention high so they keep 10 conversations going until one seems “perfect”? Super annoying. Anyone else dealing with this constant fake interest nonsense?
