Beyond the pricing issue you already found, unless you have specific genetic mutations that cause CF like the F508del mutation, these drugs won’t really do anything for you.

I was thinking the seller might have a curse that would cause her to get hit by a car, but she had the crystal that was constantly protecting her until she handed it over. But I like your idea too.

Ford made the much smaller Maverick truck starting in 2022. It was a hybrid, not an EV, but they definitely are looking into that market.

I recently went to the grocery store and before I started scanning at the self-checkout, I realized someone else had scanned a box of “Men’s libido max” pills and apparently left as it required ID or something to buy, and I guess they didn’t want to look someone in the face and buy it.

So then I had to look someone in the face while they cleared it from the register, probably thinking that I was the one who had the change of heart.

I mean the downsides are basically cost, another stick/blood draw, potential for false positive and further anxiety/testing. No weigh-in on whether or not any individual should at any specific time, but even less-invasive screenings are not zero risk.

Excerpt from the US Preventative Task Force about prostate cancer screening:

“An elevated PSA level may be caused by prostate cancer but can also be caused by other conditions, including an enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia) and inflammation of the prostate (prostatitis). Some men without prostate cancer may therefore have positive screening results (ie, “false-positive” results). Men with a positive PSA test result may undergo a transrectal ultrasound-guided core-needle biopsy of the prostate to diagnose prostate cancer.”

It was a Minute Physics video. Only 2 minutes, and a great watch.

Lmao that full uncut video is hilarious. Some contagious laughter going on.

If they got that big of a discount, it may have been a manufacturer’s savings card.

It’s not the pharmacies that set the prices. At least, not really. The pharmacy pays near the listed “cash-price” for the drug from the wholesaler, who buys from the manufacturer, so the pharmacy can’t really afford to charge much less than they do for many drugs.

And the price the patient sees after insurance is decided based on the insurance or pharmacy benefit manager who deals with prescription benefits for the insurance.

Pharmacies are also contractually prevented from charging less to a cash-paying patient than what they charge to the insurance companies, so you start getting weirdness with coupon cards to work around that.

Happy to be here! Happy birthday Lemmy.zip

Germany had 17 active nuclear plants in 2011 and decommissioned them all by 2023.

I guess Ol’ Windbag Winnie was a smoker then, with such accelerated aging.

What kind of randomly generated password did you have that was crackable? I usually use 30 characters completely random string. If that’s crackable, maybe I need to rethink things.

Unpackerr is usually used for unzipping files downloaded automatically by Radar or Sonarr, but it can also be configured to point to any folder, like your downloads. It’s fairly easy to set up, especially if you’re just pointing it to a folder.

I recently jumped to mint, and I have to say I’m very happy with it. I struggled with like two things but the OS is popular enough that there are walkthroughs for nearly everything. And I was able to get Linux-based or browser-based software for everything I did on my windows computer

Seconded. A very chill and entertaining informational podcast that benefits greatly from its conversational style.

And episodes can be about nearly anything. Forgiveness, the Cannonball Run, the Loch Ness monster, the sun, beavers, the Equal Rights Act. They’re all great. I’ve been listening since 2012.

Alpha Pheonix is a great channel with some really good electricity videos recently.
