I have a pair of Facebook pages registered under the same account: one is personal, and the other is a business page. Until recently (maybe 3 or 4 weeks ago), I've been able to toggle my identity back and forth between to two. Now I can only act as my personal identity. Here's what's changed: Where it says, "Your Pages:" circled in yellow, it used to say, "Use Facebook as:". Notice the "Messages" icon is blank. It should have a little red number in it showing me how many messages I have waiting for me, but it's empty because nobody send messages to my personal page, only my business page. I can't access those messages while I'm acting as my personal ID. (My personal ID is "Matt." The second ID is the page named after our primary product, and is where I need to be doing business. That third page is a placeholder page in the name of the company, and has no real content.) Facebook, of course, provides exactly zero tech support and won't even acknowledge my e-mails. Latest Firefox, latest Mac OS.

Busy Bee posted:I've shipped thousands of items and I have always used USPS. Don't even bother with FedEx or UPS. USPS also offers flat rate packages where its as many items / weight you can put into a specific box / envelope and it ships for a fixed amount. USPS is the way to go, trust me. Agreed. I ship a ton of stuff, and the private carriers are only necessary for overnight or guaranteed 2nd-day delivery. USPS Priority Mail is our default service, and it almost always arrives in 2 days. We're shipping from the center of the country, so that helps. And we almost always use Priority Mail Regional Rate boxes, which you have to order from the USPS website, but they're free, and they cost less to ship than comparable size flat-rate boxes. The smallest Regional Rate box is about the same size as the medium flat-rate box, and costs anywhere from $6 to $10 postage, depending on the destination. Medium flat-rate is about $13.50.

fishmech posted:...a lot of them have deals with international freighters so they can book you on a nice long cruise on one of them between continents or around the world (a lot of ocean freighters still have what amounts to a small bank of nice cruise ship rooms, which were originally intended for things like executives of the freight line or families of crew if they needed to be onboard). What the hell. I've never heard of this. What do you do for fun on a freighter. I'm sure the room is nice, but when I go on a cruise I'm hardly ever in my room.

Just go to the deli, and ask them that you're making 40 ham sandwiches, 40 turkey sandwiches and 40 pastrami sandwiches. Or whatever. They'll shave a few slices off and say, "is this enough for one sandwich?" When you say, "Yes," they'll weight it, then keep slicing until they have 40 times that. Those people probably know more about sandwich construction than any of us, and you're probably not the first person they've ever heard that sort of question from.

syscall girl posted:The GOP hate him, and he's now the only chance they have. As a Republican voter, I can confirm this. Everyone should remember that Trump is neither a Republican nor conservative; he's a populist. And yes, a millionaire can be a populist. It's not really "Republicans" that hate him, it's the party leadership and the power brokers in Washington that have absolutely no control over him. Republicans got really lucky that he happened to get the nomination in the same year the Democrats nominated pretty much their worst-case scenario. If he wins, I'm curious to see how he'll work (or more interestingly, refuse to work) within the DC system. And this will be the most entertaining election year in my lifetime. And I'm an old.

Cold air can't hold as much water vapor as warm air. When temperatures drop, so does the amount of moisture in the air.

Ciaphas posted:Been told by my primary care doctor and an ENT specialist that biopsy results on my thyroid indicate likely cancer (like a >70% shot). I'm scheduled to have the whole thing sliced out end of March. Any suggestions for not going crazy with anxiety/stress in the meantime? I had this same procedure about four years ago. You'll be fine. At this point, the thyroid cancer itself is a minor concern for you, as they're removing the gland. My doc explained to me: "If you're handed a menu of cancers and asked to pick one, pick Thyroid." The surgery is very routine, but the recovery is a bit of a pain in the rear end, as you'll have a big incision going across your throat, and it really restricts your upper-body movement for several days afterward. You'll be surprised to learn how much upper-body motion involves muscles near the base of the throat. When you wake up from surgery, you'll have a sore throat and a raspy voice. This is because there will likely be some mild trauma to one or both of your recurrent laryngeal nerves, as they run right behind the thyroid gland (and because you were intubated during surgery). The nerves link your vocal cords to your brain. It may take a day for the "bruised" nerves to heal and your voice to come back. There is a slight (less than 1%) chance that one of them will be permanently (or semi-permanently) damaged; if that happens, you'll have a paralyzed vocal cord. That happened to me. And I was a broadcaster at the time, so if it happens to you, remember: it could be worse. Still, even if you have a damaged nerve, there is a decent chance the nerve we partially re-innervate (heal itself) and you'll get most of your voice back. That process took about three months for me, so I had no voice to speak of (ha ha) during that time, and a doctor that was telling me I would probably never speak again. Thanks, doc. So, you asked for reassurance and I probably just did the opposite. Keep in mind I was very, very unlucky. They only removed the right lobe of the gland, and that's the one with the real danger of nerve damage. About 6 weeks after surgery, I had a procedure done where a temporary gel was injected into the tissue behind the dead vocal cord. This pushed the cord back into the middle of the voice box so the other cord could make contact and I could finally vocalize again. My voice was weak and gravelly, but I could talk. And it gradually got better. Three months post-surgery another doctor told me my nerve had partially re-innervated, the gel injections had dissipated, and that I was speaking wth my own natural voice. To this day my vocal cord is still mostly paralyzed ("paresis" rather than paralysis), but it's getting just enough juice through the damaged nerve to keep the muscles from staying atrophied, and that medializes the vocal cord, just like the gel did. So my voice is now about 95% of what it used to be. I did a lot of vocal therapy afterwards. If you're not already, you'll need to take a tiny little thyroid pill every morning for the rest of your life. Over the first few weeks, that will normalize your thyroid levels and you'll start to feel much better, especially in your brain, which gets massively hosed up by thyroid abnormalities. Without thyroid hormone, you lose all energy and mental motivation, you get depressed and probably gain weight, as it's a metabolism hormone. That will all even itself out over time -- hormones are like dominoes, and when one gets out of whack, a dozen others get jacked up in the process, and it will take your body some time (weeks, not days) to re-set all the dominoes. Hypothyroidism when untreated almost always comes with crippling depression. When treated with thyroid hormone, it completely disappears for most people, but some still need a mild antidepressant. Together those two things should do the trick. You can't eat walnuts anymore - they interfere with the thyroid pills. So just be patient, you'll be fine. Be patient with the surgery and the recovery.

Ciaphas posted:Thanks a lot, that gives me quite a lot more confidence. I don't know enough to speak one way or the other regarding your TSH levels, but did he ever mention your T3 and T4 levels? For those not in the know: Your thyroid gland produces two thyroid hormones, T3 and T4. They stimulate your metabolism, which is why people with under-active thyroids tend to gain weight (among many other problems). Your pituitary gland is what tells the thyroid gland to produce T3 and T4 -- by sending it a chemical called Thyroid Stimulating Hormone, or TSH. If your thyroid is defective and doesn't make T3 and T4, your pituitary cranks out huge amounts of TSH, which is why doctors use elevated TSH levels to indicate that your thyroid isn't working. The extra TSH irritates your thyroid gland, and it swells up and creates sensation of pressure in your throat and/or face. Why they don't simply look directly at T3 and T4 levels, I do not know. ANYWAY...I now get my levels checked once a year, and they always check for TSH, T3 and T4. Regarding your depression: hypothyroidism brings depression with it more often than not, as was the case with me. I was depressed for several years before I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's syndrome, an auto-immune disorder in which the body slowly destroys the thyroid gland. Getting diagnosed probably saved my life, as it was --in my view, anyway-- crumbling down around me. It's a really nasty, insidious form of depression, too, with "hopelessness" being the word most often associated with it by hypothyroidism patients. I wasn't at risk of dying from the Hashimoto's --it's not fatal in itself-- I was at serious risk of suicide. It really does ruin your life. I lost two jobs and almost lost my marriage before they fixed my thyroid, and before they found the cause I had no idea what was happening to my head. I literally thought I was going insane. I felt disassociated from the world around me, I cared about nothing...not my wife, not my job, not my hobbies...and none of those things brought me any happiness. I was actually a very happy guy my entire life before my thyroid crashed. I'm in tip-top shape now, but it did take almost a full year after the surgery before the fog really lifted. I still take a very mild antidepressant each day, which may or may not even be necessary at this point, but in the doctor's opinion it's best not to take chances right now. I don't know that *you* necessarily need to know any of this, but if I can help one single person avoid the nightmare I had to live through, I'll talk everyone's ear off about this stuff. I drove to work every day wondering if this would finally be the day I blew my brains out. No poo poo. I lived like that for years, and it was all completely avoidable. Right before I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's, my wife said, "You haven't seen a doctor in years. You need to get a checkup and get some blood work done." I said, "What's blood work?" So I know there are other people out there who never go to the doctor. By this time I had been in deep depression for at least a couple of years, and when the doc explained everything to me after the test results came back, it was like a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders. I wasn't really losing my mind, it was just an under-active thyroid. I immediately got on synthroid and an antidepressant (stronger than one I'm taking now), and my life turned around very quickly. I just realized I never explained the reason for the thyroidectomy: a biopsy identified some nodules as a follicular neoplasm, which may or may not be cancer. They had to remove it to find out. My was the non-cancerous variety.

Ciaphas posted:I'm gonna be aggravated if my weight and mind problems are all down to a malfunctioning thyroid No, if that's the case, you should be thrilled. It means every aspect of your life is going to keep getting better and better. I consider myself lucky that so many problems were eliminated by fixing a simple physiological flaw that I never would have guessed had anything to do any of them. May all your problems be thyroid-related! And good luck with the surgery. This is not the place for an extended medical conversation, so I'll stop here, but if you have other questions, PM me or ask in The Goon Doctor subforum. Depression is ironically a disease that makes you not want to discuss it with anyone, but now that I'm back I will never be shy about it, because for so many people it's an easy fix that they don't even realize needs fixing. GO TO YOUR DOCTOR ONCE A YEAR, PEOPLE. A freaking blood test was all it took, and now I'm healthy & happy again.

weab00 posted:How do I act around my crush? I know it's easy to say "just be yourself", but I can never do that around them. I become a shell and lose my ability to say anything interesting when I'm around her. Ask her about her interests without using too many yes-no questions. Don't pepper her with a bunch of specific questions, just get her talking about something she's interested in. It's a lot easier to guide a conversation that it is to run one (which you shouldn't be trying to do anyway), but eventually you'll get better at holding your own. She mentions hobby X: So how did you become interested in X? She mentions her mom: Are you close to your family? She talks about her cats: run, bro.

Why has Uber suddenly stopped working on my iPhone6? It worked fine until a few weeks ago, now I get this unhelpful error 100% of the time: "Request failed. There was an error processing your request. If this continues please visit help.uber.com." Weird thing is, I can still book an Uber on my iPad...same location, same payment info, same wi-fi network. The website offers no help at all. There is nothing wrong with my payment method, and all settings are identical between the iPad and iPhone. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I have hard-booted the phone.

Fair warning: I know zip about electronics. My wife has a cordless Revo rotating hair brush, and the rechargeable battery has given up the ghost. They don't make these any more, so replacing the battery is the only option. Looking at these photos, can you tell me how they're attached to the device? Are they soldered on? Is it some sort of adhesive? I don't want to just start pulling, and end up ruining this thing forever. What's the best way to get these batteries out of there, and would I need to re-solder the replacement, or would electrical tape to the trick?

socketwrencher posted:How do real estate auction sales work? I'm familiar with foreclosure auctions but this is non-foreclosure. This mixed-use property was originally listed on the MLS for $598k with no takers. It was then put up for auction and there's a sale pending for.... $928k. Are these sealed bid auctions? I have a hard time believing that at least two parties were bidding up the price so high. If $598 was simply the asking price, then it was set artificially low simply to encourage interest. Properties frequently sell above asking price. If $598 was the property valuation, then there are other aspects of the property that make it more valuable.

Mak0rz posted:If it takes several hours for food to go through your digestive system, why does it seem like certain foods make you farty within minutes of eating them? A nurse friend of mine explained that process to me once: after you fill your stomach, your body decides it's time to void the oldest food still in your digestive system. That's why so many people poop right after eating a meal. I'd guess the fartiness is related to that process: your body trying to push out what's in the large intestine/colon.
