It’s a monument to human achievement that they work as well as they do at all.

FTFY.

I’m in my forties and what you’re describing doesn’t sound normal at all. I beat myself up good in my younger years with sports and still do somewhat regular cardio and weightlifting. I have a bum knee and hip problem, shoulder issues from weightlifting injuries, and my back gets stiff and sore on a good day.

None of that stops me from functionally living, and none of its anything the occasional ibuprofen or toke won’t fix in the short term. I can still exercise, do physical labor, open all the jars, and be generally active, and without pain the majority of the time.

What you’re describing sounds more like an inflammatory disease or auto-immune disorder. 110% get a second opinion from a different doc, or a third if needed.

I spend a bunch of time in log reviews in my current role. “Googling the error message” image is literally hanging on my office wall.

Generally underscore _ works best for this, and should be viable for both OSes.

Hey, check out the resmed airsense 10 autoset card-to-cloud version. It’s a lot cheaper and has no cellular connectivity, no wireless module. I just found out about it tonight, thinking of buying one as a backup machine. Looks like it ticks all your boxes.

CPAP.com has a starter bundle for it right now for $400.

I currently use a Resmed Airsense 10 and can’t recommend it enough; best sleep I’ve ever had.

Just avoid anything by Philips Respironics. They’ve been messing around hard, class action suits and recalls and haven’t really made anyone whole from the debacle (myself included, I came out of pocket to replace my old Dreamstation).

Just use OSCAR to get the data locally from the SD card.

Learn more about the machine and do your own management as well. It’s very easy to get into the machine settings to control your air flow, temperature settings, and so on. Take the time to learn what the data from the machine means.

Thanks for the info, good to know winter won’t be any concern.

I should clarify, I used a 1/8 bit but I drilled two holes side by side at each end of the window and then drilled/tapped out the middle to join them, rectangular and closer in size to the external holes. They’re horizontal notches probably between 1/4 and 3/8 wide (not exact, but nothing’s perfect), but 1/8 high.

My wife and I have somewhere around 450 hours in it (each). It’s fantastic.

The Real Story and Lord Foul’s Bane by Stephen Donaldson. The man is so utterly casual about rape as plot progression that it leaves me with serious questions about the author.
