I too enjoy going off my meds for the weekend.

And Dr Ruth. That lady was such a charming little horn dog.

I host a handful of Internet facing sites/applications from my NAS and have had no issues. Just make sure you know how to configure your firewall correctly and you’ll be fine.

Or this statue of Juliet in Verona.

I don’t have a huge game library so my experience is limited, but I’ve had no issues gaming on Mint. Some of my regularly played games include Deep Rock Galactic, Risk of Rain 2, Lethal Company, Astroneer, Elite Dangerous, and Sea of Thieves.

I bought an ancient PC game I used to play as a kid called Summoner, and even that started right up.

Micro Center! Unfortunately they can be a little hard to shop with if you don’t live near one. Their inventory for online shopping and shipping is more limited than their in-store stock.

There’s another nifty little container called qbittorrent-natmap that will take care of that for you.

Never underestimate the depths of my shame.

In the address bar of the Firefox app there’s a little icon that looks like a page with some lines on it. Tap that on any page to go to reader mode. Gets rid of most of this junk with a single tap.

Kansas City comes up a number of times in my post history, so I’m not too worried about it. And I’ve got one of those names that don’t really help you in Google unless you’ve already got some fairly specific info on me. But thanks for looking out!

Yes, you are right. And I have already expressed my mea culpas and understanding it was a shitty thing to say. I’m not really sure what else to say.

It sends up a lot of red flags that you are an unstable and dangerous person incapable of controlling their emotions.

All the more reason I would like my meds to not be interrupted by some company’s profit margins.

You’re absolutely right. Having moved past the feelings of frustration, I see that was stupid.

Certainly understandable, and I’ve edited the main post to acknowledge the shitty nature of that part of my comments. I think I was just less receptive to @dhork@lemmy.world because of their condescending way of putting it.

Yes, that comment was over the line. No I do not endorse terrorism.

Well as long as we’re taking obviously figurative language and interpreting it literally, I didn’t say I was going to send one, I said someone should. So report away.

I didn’t send them a threat. Mistr isn’t associated with United Healthcare/Optum. I was making an expression of frustration to someone who would likely understand since I’m sure I’m not the first person they’ve had to help with this insurance provider.

Optum does that, too. I’ve had to do it on a number of occasions. The source of my frustration there is if I’m having to call in and go through that process on a regular basis, I should just be able to get my meds from the pharmacy they end up sending it to, anyway. But that would make too much sense, so of course it’s the last thing they’d allow me to do.

Will give them a look. Thanks for the suggestion!

I’ll have to look my meds up on there and check out their details. I’m hoping they just won’t be that expensive at my local pharmacy across the street from my apartment, though. I’d love the convenience of just picking them up at the same building I get my morning coffee from. Which for me is the most absurd thing - I have a local pharmacy right next door, but no, we need to involve Optum and the USPS to the mix.

Oh, piss off.
