If any of you noticed in the eastern Michigan post I said something about my golfing partner, my father-in-law, was in th hospital. Well today he had to have another surgery. I don't know how much he wants made public, but I ask if you would like to keep him in your prayers or thoughts that he may make a recovery. He has now been in different areas of the hospital, recovery icu, isolation ward, and a few others. The news that I know I can make public is he has a 50 50 chance he might not make a recovery from the infection due to it being an echanced infection(xdr). Some of his organs have not been helping bring everything back to helping fighting off the infection. I will try to find out what I can release publicly but at the current time my wife and mother in law have only been releasing certain info to none family and has kept most of it between certain family members.

Thanks

Doug

Ps if this post is against the tos I'm sorry

This is not a violation, your post is in the correct place. We will be praying for your father in law. Blessings to you and your family during this difficult time.

Update on my father-in-law:

So my father-in-law is out of the ICU now, but his infection has still not gone away. He was informed that one of his organs is not getting any better and it is not helping get rid of the infection. If the infection reaches his heart it might be fatal. If he does not have a fever for a continous 24 hour he will be released and will be able to do everything as an outpatient. The organ that is giving him problems must also be in worse shape then it is now for him to qualify to be put on the transplant list. We are all hoping that he gets released soon so he may spend time with his family at home, especially with his grandson who has not seen him since he has gone into the hospital. My family and I appreciate everyones continued thoughts and prayers

I'm not one for praying much, but I do believe in karma and positive energy. All I've got is going to you and your family.

 

Good Luck!

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By PedroDaGr8 · Posted

      Since this is kind of the general chat thread, I have to share this humorous story (at least it is to me): Since around February/March of this year, my S22U has been an absolute pain to charge. USB-C cables would immediately fall out and it progressively got worse and worse until it often took me a number of minutes to get the angle of the cable juuuussst right to get charging to occur at all (not exaggerating). The connection was so weak that even walking heavily could cause the cable to disconnect. I tried cleaning out the port with a stable, a paperclip, etc. Some dust/lint/dirt came out but the connection didn't improve one bit. Needless to say, this was a MONSTER headache and had me hating this phone. I just didn't have the finances right now for a replacement.  Which brings us to the night before last. I am angry as hell because I had spent five minutes trying to get this phone to charge and failed. I am looking in the port and I notice it doesn't look right. The walls look rough and, using a staple, the back and walls feel REALLY rough and very hard. I get some lint/dust out with the staple and it improves charging in the sense I can get it to charge but it doesn't remove any of the hard stuff. It's late and it's charging, so that's enough for now. I decide it's time to see if that hard stuff is part of the connector or not. More aggressive methods are needed! I work in a biochem lab and we have a lot of different sizes of disposable needles available. So, yesterday morning, while in the lab I grab a few different sizes of needles between 26AWG and 31 AWG. When I got home, I got to work and start probing the connector with the 26 AWG and 31 AWG needle. The stuff feels extremely hard, almost like it was part of the connector, but a bit does break off. Under examination of the bit, it's almost sandy with dust/lint embedded in it. It's not part of the connector but instead some sort of rock-hard crap! That's when I remember that I had done some rock hounding at the end of last year and in January. This involved lots of digging in very sandy/dusty soils; soils which bare more than a passing resemblance to the crap in the connector. We have our answer, this debris is basically compacted/cemented rock dust. Over time, moisture in the area combined with the compression from inserting the USB-C connector had turned it into cement. I start going nuts chiseling away at it with the 26 AWG needle. After about 5-10 minutes of constant chiseling and scraping with the 26AWG and 31AWG needles, I see the first signs of metal at the back of the connector. So it is metal around the outsides! Another 5 minutes of work and I have scraped away pretty much all of the crap in the connector. A few finishing passes with the 31AWG needle, a blast of compressed air, and it is time to see if this helped any. I plug my regular USB-C cable and holy crap it clicks into place; it hasn't done that since February! I pick up the phone and the cable has actually latched! The connector works pretty much like it did over a year ago, it's almost like having a brand new phone!

      That's odd, they are usually almost lock step with TMO. I forgot to mention this also includes the September Security Update.
