Thank you for the detailed response.
I was aware that there were coverage contracts with insurance providers that could potentially get in the way of this, but I hadn’t really thought about the “I already have insurance, why buy this?” aspect, but it seems obvious in hindsight.
The sporadic usage of specialists, which I would qualify mental heath as one, also doesn’t necessarily lend itself to this model.
I think I stand with the majority of people in that all healthcare, of which mental health should be a substantial part, needs an overhaul in the U.S.
It’s the how that becomes the difficult part.
Have you investigated direct primary care programs as a “subscription” model to the services you provide? Like what’s described here:
https://www.aafp.org/about/policies/all/direct-primary-care.html
I’m not a physician or in medicine at all, so this is genuine curiosity on my part for an idea that was recently described to me. I’m looking for feedback from someone that lives inside the system on if they even think something like this is feasible or has potential to succeed.
I’ll always love random IASIP quotes injected into conversation.
How about this one?
Astros pitchers are STRUGGLING this year.
The beard was the source of his power. It’s all gone wrong since he shaved after joining the Yankees.
Play guitar. Ride a horse. Ride a motorcycle. Play frisbee with my dog. Read a book.
Like the other reply, the little things are big things.
I hope you can feel better, friend.
Thanks! That’s an old Bob Marshall. It’s been replaced by a new one at this point.
I also have a CU24 SE. It’s an incredible instrument! I’m down to 4 guitars these days, and two of them are PRS. 😁
Absolutely phenomenal. They totally nailed it. The vocals of Clare Torry on that track added so much to the emotion in it, and they captured that very well on the slide.
Improvisation inside a chord progression.
Trying to improv across a few different modes while following a chord progression from a backing track.
Getting phrasing and “feel” right for what I want to play.
Free respec, on the fly without going to a trainer.
Area looting
No more mob tagging. Seriously, why? Competing for the same mob with 500 people is insane.
Built-in quest locations and map markers. No need for questie.
Customizable default UI. Let me move things.
Then once the QoL items, which exist in the retail client already anyway, are implemented you can start adding “new” instances, raids, etc.
LA out here trying to buy another championship.
This just in, player that lost game thinks other team didn’t play fair. More at 11.
It takes to minor upgrades really well
“You see, the birth canal is a tunnel and we all know Hamas is using tunnels to move around without observation. The babies just used tunnels, so they must be Hamas.”
That’s a lot of knobs and dials! I love it!
New pickups in my PRS SE (long post)
Decided to try my hand at a pickup swap. I ordered Seymour Duncan Mark Holcomb Alpha and Omega pickups, an adjustable soldering iron, and watched about half a dozen YouTube videos.
I’m fairly handy, but I’ve never soldered anything before. This was an entirely new experience for me, but I figured worst case I could take it to a shop and have them fix it. So let’s get started!
Strings off!Going to change the strings anyway, so they come off first. It’ll make things way easier to deal with, too.
Pull the back cover and check it out.I pulled out the tone pot, which is a push/pull unit on the PRS CU24SE, and compared the wiring diagram I downloaded from PRS and the one that came in the package with the new pickups. I had a pretty good idea what I was looking at, so it was time to start taking things apart.
This is the stock wiring.Framboozled with the no hitter
HOUSTON -- Tuesday will be remembered as one of the greatest days in Astros history, and it will have very little to do with the club re-acquiring Justin Verlander at the Trade Deadline. All-Star pitcher Framber Valdez became the first left-handed pitcher in franchise history to throw a no-hitter wh...
Verlander is back!
HOUSTON -- Justin Verlander, who won two American League Cy Young Awards, two World Series titles and threw his third career no-hitter while wearing an Astros uniform from 2017-22, is returning to Minute Maid Park less than a year after he left. The Astros swung a blockbuster deal prior to
Don’t know how much gas he’s got in the tank, but he’ll be a great influence on the younger guys. France looking really solid and can use a mentor like JV.
The one I always go back to
2012 PRS 513
The 513 was, to me, one of the most interesting guitars to roll out of the PRS shop. Boasting a unique pickup and wiring arrangement, it allows for incredible diversity in selecting and splitting pickups.
With 5 single coils and unique wiring, the 513 is able to deliver everything from single coil twang to humbucker crunch, in 13 total combinations.
5 coils, with 13 different configurations, the 513 is my personal "do it all" instrument.
Holy shit Machete
Dude is in the slump of slumps, finally breaks it with that crusher and ALSO breaks the streak of L’s at the same time.
I still think YD is the future, but ol Machete still got some smash on him.

This guitar was built by my brother-in-law back in 1999. Third guitar he ever built.
The back and sides are hand scraped rosewood from a stump in his yard while he was living in São Paulo, where he learned to build guitars.
It was originally given to his father, but was passed along to me as one of the only guitar players in the family.

My Multistrada
My 2014 Multistrada Granturismo at one of the viewpoints near Petit Jean River Valley in Arkansas.
Took a couple day trip through the Ozarks. This is the one I’ve kept the longest. Been through half a dozen supersports and a couple track bikes, but this one always stays.

Silly Lola, being her goofball self. <3
How’s it going in the .one?
It’s been an interesting 10-ish days on the internet in general. Big thanks to @[email protected] for hosting Lemmy.one. It’s a cool community, and I’m really enjoying the fediverse thus far. Looking forward to seeing how it develops!
