2025.01.22 19:27 Every_Edge_6182 Could this be a UTI?
So for a while since maybe May I’ve been having other problems with discharge but since around Christmas I’ve started noticing burning and feeling like I need to go to the toilet non-stop. It’s so so uncomfortable but I’ve had UTIs in the past and this feels a bit different. Im also not experiencing any burning when actually urinating just that I’m constantly feeling a pressure on my bladder and burning on my vulva. I also had my urine checked and there was no sign for any sugar or white blood cells in it so I’m so confused! Any ideas of what could be happening is helpful! Sorry if this was a bit TMI

2025.01.22 19:27 Reasonable_Edge2411 Alternative hosting companies not azure plz don’t say but why!
I have used SmartASP.net for quite a few years, but I’ve noticed their service has degraded.
The reason I like them is the SQL Server space they provide — up to 1GB, either split across ten databases or as one massive database.
The main priority for me is .NET 8 or 9 compatibility and SQL Server space.
I don’t want to use Azure, as SQL Server space and usage can become quite expensive very quickly.
I don’t mind paying for a vm but one we reasonable memory and still managed. To be able to scale.

2025.01.22 19:27 Current_Beat_423 Not sure what’s going on
Hi, so I am a 20yr female and I am very self aware that there is something clearly abnormal about my thought process and patterns but I am unaware as to why or what it is that is exactly the problem or what “mental illness” I would fall under. I am overly sensitive always have been. To sound, people, places and things. Certain sounds just make me cry. If someone doesn’t laugh at a joke I immediately internalize it and want to jump off a bridge. Always angry and on the defense. I hate my looks so it breaks my heart to see someone beautiful. I can’t do simple things like go for a run or start my YouTube channel because I am afraid someone is watching me . It all boils down to perception I realize. The list goes on but that is just a little bit of what I am going through. I can’t tell if I am just overly spoiled or something is just wrong (obviously I know something is wrong as these are normal abnormal thought processes) I’m not sure what to do or even what my diagnosis would be.. any thoughts?

2025.01.22 19:27 ScrapDraft Aetna Insurance is a nightmare
Hello all, hopefully this is the right place to post this. I guess I'm just looking to vent and see if anyone has any advice or similar experiences.
My wife is about 11 weeks pregnant. We're very excited. But Aetna insurance has managed to make the experience so far a nightmare.
When we first found out she was pregnant, we immediately tried to find an in-network OBGYN for her to go to. We used Aetna's "find a doctor" tool on their website and found a doctor a few miles away. So we booked an appointment.
We show up to that appointment and all seems fine. They take my wife's blood pressure and do an MRI. They also asked her for a urine sample, but she didn't have to go yet, so they were having us sit there for a bit until she could go. At that point, the receptionist came in and advised us they actually do NOT take our insurance. We immediately ended the appointment. The receptionist advised they would try to bill the MRI to Aetna, but if it was denied, we would be on the hook for the bill. They estimate ~$350. Perfect time for a surprise bill which wasn't even our fault. As of today, we haven't heard anything from the doctor or Aetna about this bill.
We went home frustrated because it was critically important that my wife get seen by a doctor ASAP. I called Aetna and explained the situation. I advised them we need a list of doctors that actually WERE in network. The lady apologized for whatever confusion there was and told me she would send over a PDF containing in-network OBGYNs. She couldn't email it, though. I had to download and register on their app and the document appeared in my inbox. I'm not sure if it's my phone or the app, but I'm unable to download or open the document she sent at this point. I can click it, but nothing happens.
So we try to find another Dr using their portal. We find another that is nearby. We call that doctor and ask if they would accept our insurance should we make an appointment. They say yes. So we make the appointment. We then call Aetna and ask if they can quadruple check that our insurance will be accepted. They also say yes.
So a little over a week ago, we show up at that appointment. Everything seems fine and we meet with the doctor we made the appointment for. We advise her of the insurance issue we had with the last doctor. She assures us everything will be ok. She said she had already spoken to her boss about it and her boss advised "this happens all the time and I can always fix it. Tell them not to worry". So we felt a bit more comfortable. The rest of the appointment goes smoothly.
Well, surprise surprise we got a call from them today advising us that we would need to switch doctors. Apparently the lady that we met with WAS covered by Aetna, but the other 4 doctors at the practice were not. The lady we had met with was not able to do surgeries if they were required, and because of that, she needed at least 1 other doctor at the practice to be there as a backup. And now, since none of them are covered, we are now AGAIN trying to find a new doctor.
Is this normal? This is so frustrating. Knowing thay we may be on the hook for a surprise $350 bill that was NOT our fault at possibly one of the worst times to get a surprise bill. And knowing that Aetna cannot accurately point us in the direction of an in-network doctor to get my wife through this pregnancy? I genuinely don't know what we're paying them for. They haven't provided us accurate doctor information OR covered any of our bills.

2025.01.22 19:27 CorptanSpecklez The Tomb has FOUR Ranged Special zombie types.
We DO not need amalgams, even more OP mimics, vermin AND doppleghasts on a map that is this small, with tight areas. They are ALL confirmed for the Tomb. Vermin arent really OP but they are little shits lol.
Treyarch hasnt made a new special zombie that isnt a ranged zombie since BO4 I believe. Maybe earlier. Every zombie since has a ranged attack. Even normal zombies, who can throw their body parts.
Cold War: Megatons, Mimic, Disciples, Abominations, Manglers, Tempest, Tormenter.
Vanguard: Boom Schreier, Sturmkrieger.
BO6: Mimic, Vermin, Parasite, Mangler, Doppleghasts, Amalgams.
Why cant we get one map where theres a special zombie that doesnt shoot shit at you?
Did they not learn with the manglers on Liberty Falls?
Kind of a dumb rant but these make the armor system kinda useless.

2025.01.22 19:27 ConsequenceRound8168 Am I unblocked on imessage?
Curious if anyone has information on this… my ex wanted to go no contact and blocked me almost a month ago. We were both still in love and broke up on good terms he just said it was too hard for him right now, of course I’ve been very upset about this and have tried texting his number maybe 1-2 times and tried calling him 1-2 times with the messages not saying anything/when I call it goes straight to voicemail.
The other day I just had this weird urge to try and text him again and I did and it immediately said delivered?? He hasn’t said anything to my message which I figured he wouldn’t but I really want to try and call him to see if it does to voicemail or not….
When I looked it up it says on iPhone you can still be blocked and it says delivered but that doesn’t make any sense to me?? But it also doesn’t make sense that he would just randomly unblock me idk lol
TLDR; can your message still say delivered on iPhone even if you’re blocked still?

Anyone know of a place I can get ammo and firearms where there isn’t a prominent trump flag behind the counter? I can’t support those businesses, and buying online makes things even more ambiguous.
I’m also looking for a place to shoot shotguns in the area, but many of the ranges either don’t allow shotguns, or they have the aforementioned trump flag.

2025.01.22 19:27 AllenHarrow I've Completed the writing, but need money to pay artists from here. What should I do?
I have fully written out two volumes of my comic, but I draw too slowly to be able to draw the whole comic myself (I have already tried once, and it took me almost a whole year just to make 10 pages that are inked with flat coloring, and I plan to have over 200 pages just for volume 1), and decided that it would be more practical to stick primarily to writing and hire 2 or 3 artists to help draw for me.
I am brand new to the scene with very little out-of-pocket money to spend, and a following of not even 60 people all together. What are the next steps I should take from here? If you have any further questions, I would be more than happy to answer! Thanks in advance!
PS: I also have several drawings I've done posted across my social media accounts. The accounts are linked to my profile.

Hi, I am looking to upgrade my rig and have spent the whole day looking at different options and few questions rose up. Since I am looking for a CPU that is solely used for 1440p gaming and outperforms an I7-8700k, which one would the better choice and AMD or Intel cpu?
Also what exactly are Intel's P and E cores? What do they do, how do they fare in different tasks and what are they meant for?
