Ridiculous isn’t it? I had my annual physical a few weeks back, which for me is filling an online form and having my blood pressure read and a few blood tests. $550, insurance pays for everything.
Well. Almost. Turns out 2 of my blood tests were not covered by some healthcare bill passed in 2007. $267. And the mole I asked to be checked, billing code wasn’t covered as standard checkup, and so that question was $240. Mole was benign, and surprisingly didn’t result in some convenience fee.
ER was in-network. The nurse and doctor was also in-network. The second nurse, who connected me to the ECG, and the person who read the ECG was not in-network. No way of knowing at the time. Balance billing was permitted in that state at that time, which out-of-network provider used to the full extent.
I’m still salty about that.
Not challenging just clarifying; Is your speculation extending to suggest that the larger demographic of porn consumers online are adolescents? Or more that the “step-*” joining the family set a longer term influence? (Or something else entirely…?)
I appreciate your work. (sincerely)
I have a MikroTik Router providing DHCP to the various networks on my homelan. Each device seems to get a regular host name collision, and so the router appends a number to the end of the existing host name. My computer is currently called “Machine-8272537”. I tried fixing it a few times, setting different timeout/lease time parameters and disabling “privacy protection” on the devices, but nothing fixes it. Been like this 3 years now. I just kinda ignore it.
I use Blocky. I switched from PiHole because I didn’t have need for all the features (DHCP, Dashboard) and honestly it was a slow day and I had nothing better to do.
They did, and I quote:
As to comments/criticisms on the tone/style, Yeah, corporate videos are corporate videos!” the company then said, adding a shrug emoji.
Googling everything gets boring though. I learned something today from your question :)
Thanks for replying, that all sounds pretty cool!
What do you typically make, out of interest?
That’s annoying! It’s not been my experience, out of curiosity do you have any theories why your domain/aliases got blocked?
Sun bed/Tanning salons always got my suspicions!
But that first purge feels so healthy though!
