Ok one more thing lol

"The voice actor doesn't understand---" who careeeeeeeeees. Why are you turning this into catholicism. Back in my day we enjoyed media made by people who could only be contacted via a very specific model of a fax machine and you had to kill someone at an industry event to get the number.

Rant of an IRL friend that was aware of my DID and was super weird about it

A cautionary tale

So, in my sophomore year of high school, back when our host was a girl named Manic/Beanie, she decided it'd be a good idea to tell this freshman that we were a DID system. Now, this freshie had no clue what DID was, and I genuinely have no clue how Manic even explained what it was, but it seemed like the freshie got the only point of "Fictional characters in your head that can take control of your body". What did the freshie do with this information? Treat us like a party trick of course!

Basically, whenever it was Manic or Ozzy (the current host) –or basically anyone who wasn't her 'favorites'– , speaking or just talking casually, the freshie would say "Can you make [fictive] front instead? I wanna talk to them!" which was red flag number one, however I don't know how Manic didn't catch that.

This continued on for a while, the freshie always asking for this one specific fictive from an anime she liked to front.

You may ask, "Well, why didn't you just stop being friends with her?" Not that easy. We were in the same class for first period and club after school every Tuesday (which we eventually stopped showing up to, to avoid her).

One thing I remember her saying was, "I wish I had DID because I get so lonely." Which managed to set Manic off for once and she went off of her telling the freshie that, while just the single idea of having company in your head sounds and seems fun to an outsiders view, the trauma and anguish to actually get to that point is not worth it and never will be.

After that, the fictive she always wanted to talk to went dormant as well as another, I don't know if it was her specifically that caused that, who knows. But we stopped being friends with her after she told Manic that she didn't like her and we got new classes for the new semester (Manic is just extremely hyperactive).

I want people to use this as a reminder to be cautious of who you share your disorders with, because being treated like some sort of party trick for a disorder that's debilitating is just. Not fun.

This isn't the only story I have either, there's a story of another ex friend of mine that used my disorder against me and another friend of mine, but I'll talk about that another day as her actions still impact me.

Shout out to all the other systems out there who were treated like a party trick and lived and escaped from that!!! :3

Cosmere Characters Versus A Printer

[Previously: Cosmere Characters Versus A Toaster]

Once again, Cosmere characters are up against modern technology. In a world where they encountered printers, how would these characters handle it?

Kaladin: Knows that the printer can sense fear. Knows that it will exploit weaknesses. Maintains eye contact with the printer throughout the printing process, sweating nervously. It jams.

Adolin: Chats with his printer every day, of course, but has an in-depth conversation before each and every printing job. It always works slightly faster for him than for anyone else. 

Shallan: Innately senses the printer's passion--and pain. Draws an idealized version of the printer, where it heroically prints sharp images with smooth efficiency. It works much better after that--but only for her.

Yumi: Performs an elaborate ritual before each printing job in order to gain the printer's trust and cooperation. It works...amazingly well.

Painter: Swears that the wrinkled, ink-stained pages he dragged out of the jam are his artistic vision. (It kinda works.)

Elhokar: Is sure that the printer has it out for him, specifically. 

Tress: Must use one of those giant, jam-prone combination printers/copiers/faxes you find in offices. It's large and frightening. Tress is the only person who can consistently diagnose and fix the jams.

Dalinar: Was not aware that printers could jam.

Jasnah: Has an innate understanding of printers due to her Inkspren. I think that's how that works.

Sibling: Is pretty sure that is a spren trapped in that printer and does NOT approve.

Stump: Always claims the printer is faking when it says it's "out of ink."  You just have to shake the cartridges!

Lord Ruler: Was late for a meeting ten thousand years ago when a printer had to do maintenance and has been working to suppress printer technology ever since.

Vasher: Percussive maintenance. 

Renarin: Experimented with printing out ominous, red-ink signs that said things like IT'S COMING. 10 DAYS. But scrawling on the walls was just better somehow.

Nomad: Is constantly living on the edge (prints when he only has exactly the number of sheets of paper required)

Autonomy: Always has two printers facing each other printing at the same time. Whichever one prints slower she smashes with a hammer. She swears this makes them faster. 

Steris: Has actually mastered double-sided printing--knows how to re-feed the pages into the printer so that everything comes out facing the right way up. Even writing this I am filled with intense awe.

Nale: Has one of those printers with proprietary ink where it, like, automatically stops working if you try to use another company's ink. He thinks this is fine. I feel sick writing this. 

Elend: Once said aloud, "Yum yum printer is hungry feed it paper" and now Vin will NOT let him live it down.

Wax: Honestly misses those old dot matrix printers whose pages had sprocket holes on the side and you had to, like, tear them off along the perforated edges

MeLaan: Doesn't use printers. Can eat a stapled, collated report and produce 15 identical copies from her butt. Nobody likes this.

(Well, except for Wayne.)

How to Open a Company in the US for Non-Citizens in 2024

Starting a business in the United States as a non-citizen might seem like a daunting task, but it's more accessible than you might think.

Why Start a Business in the US?

It is true that the US market is among the largest and most active worldwide, which makes it a desirable location for entrepreneurs. Why should non-citizens think about establishing a business with a company in the US? In the first place it is because the US provides a steady economic climate, solid legal protections for companies as well as access to an extensive population of consumers. Furthermore the majority of investors prefer dealing with US-registered businesses, and incorporating within the US can boost your business's standing on the international scene.

Direct lenders for short term loans in the United Kingdom

Short-term loans obtained through brokers

Brokers have significant business knowledge and may be able to get a loan from places you are not aware of. Assume you're looking for short term loans direct lenders with bad credit, no guarantor, and a direct lender. This excludes any lenders you would locate through a broker, limiting the potential sources of loans you might be able to find. A smaller pool of lenders would provide representative instances.

When you compare lenders, you can look at the loan amount offered, early repayment arrangements, how the loan amount changes if you spread it out over a longer period of time, and so on.

tagged by @chiropteracupola a rather long while ago for this ao3 tag game (we are ignoring my play analysis teacher right now so might as well look at my fic writin' stats!)

ao3 name: mxpauling (tho this changes rather frequently!)

fandoms: in terms of fandoms Published On AO3, the greatest number are for detroit: become human and subsequent fan film detroit: evolution, due to my feverish participation in the deartfest fan event summer of 2020 (in which i wrote well over a novel's worth of words in. approximately a month.), but others represented include: team fortress 2 (specifically of the flintlock fortress variety), mystery science theater 3000, spies are forever, hadestown, the true lives of the fabulous killjoys, and some smaller one off fandoms (deathtrap, the moors, goncharov, the wolf and the watchman, and where or when)

number of works: 28! which is. a Lot higher than i remembered it being

work I spent the most time on: fairly certain it's 'leave your body at the door' as it was written over the course of about four months, which for me (guy with formerly wildly unmedicated adhd) was Insane

works I spent the least time on: oof uhhhh i mean i've written Several in the course of just a few hours, like 'cut something, kill something, eat something', 'i can't stand to see you bleed', 'don't give it a hand, offer it a soul', and 'old churchyard', amongst MANY OTHERS THAT ARE OLDER (and i didn't feel like copying)

longest fic: first place goes again to 'leave your body at the door' but coming as a close runner-up is 'Potentially Lovely, Perpetually Human', from way back in the de days

shortest fic: '(i feel) an overwhelming need', my recent the moors character study

most hits: this would be 'Out Of The Blue', due to its featuring in the octopunk monthly roundup at the end of deartfest. turns out, a built in Massive Stream Audience will bring people to your fic

most kudos: once again, 'Out Of The Blue', for much the same reasons

total word count: 144,556???????? (sorry this is NEWS TO ME)

favorite work of my own: a lot of them have already been featured in this list, so i will take this space to spotlight both 'Try Again, Die Again' (i am so proud of the premise) and 'Where the Sun Can't Find Me' (i really liked the prose in this one and am genuinely super pleased rereading it)

fic you want to rewrite / expand on: oof there are Several: i had a halfway plotted third installment of the killjoys: dead zone series about the girl and show pony settling into a new life in batt city that i'd really want to revisit someday; i'd love to restructure and rewrite 'Potentially Lovely, Perpetually Human' to make the pacing a bit more consistent; i have an incomplete fourth fic in the spytown logs series i want to come back to; and for the sake of space and time i want to redo the end of 'Out Of The Blue' because my God it's rushed

share a bit of a wip or story idea you are planning on: changing tacks Entirely. behold my bill & ted fanfiction you cowards

Everything is perfectly, totally sublime, another freakin’ awesome day in San Dimas. And Ted has a seriously heinous problem. “Dude,” he says before his brain really tells him to, turning to Bill, “this day is freakin’ awesome.” Bill nods, smiling most radiantly, pushing his sunglasses up his nose. “Totally awesome.” It is.

■ Exterior

It is not just a change in the exterior design, but it is intended to demonstrate excellent performance in functions, aerodynamics, cooling, etc. The front bumper is integrated with the spoiler, and the grill set in the nose section and the balance panel section with a sufficient opening area are designed to send a lot of fresh air to the newly built intercooler for racing built in the rear of the bumper. The rear wing has an innovative style that combines improved aerodynamic characteristics with a sporty feel, and safety is also taken into consideration by incorporating an LED high-mounted stop lamp. The material used for both the front bumper and rear wing is CFRP, which is common in F1 and other Group C cars, ensuring both weight reduction and strength.

■ Interior

The design is coordinated with the body color of Third Black, and embodies the image of the "Third Spirits", which is sporty and elegant. The front seats use the original SARD-AAR sports seats, and the rear seats and door trims use the same fabric as the front seats. In addition, it is equipped with a special steering wheel, analog speed and tachometer to produce a "comfortable ride".

■ Power unit

The engine is equipped with a 3-liter sequential twin-turbo high-performance power unit that emphasizes torque rather than peak power for a comfortable ride. Please experience the margin of maximum torque 44.0kg-m.

The amount of work that I have to do to get help with my mental health is ridiculous. The system is designed to deter as many people as possible from getting help and being "unproductive" in a capitalistic society. So, despite struggling with autistic burnout, meltdowns, depression, anxiety, and PTSD, this is what I've had to do so far:

File a short-term disability claim through a third party company

Speak on the phone with a social worker employed by aforementioned company

Inform my boss of the process and report absences

Print and bring paperwork to my therapist to fill out and fax to the company

Contact my insurance company to find an in-network adult partial hospitalization program

Call the number provided and find out that they do not, in fact, have such a program

Go back to the insurance company and find a different provider

Call the next provider, which is 2-3 weeks out unless I have my therapist send a referral

Contact my therapist and ask her to send the referral (with very specific instructions)

Call the provider and find out the referral was insufficient

Set up a diagnostic assessment and intake appointment, which is over a week out

Fill out paperwork for the appointment

And now I wait. Who knows if they'll even admit me into the program. 🙃 Not to mention I will have to fill out more paperwork to continue being absent even though I was already "approved."

Ensure Accuracy with Eligibility Verification Services

In the fast-paced healthcare industry, patient eligibility verification is a critical process that helps ensure smooth operations and prevent costly billing errors. By confirming a patient's insurance status and benefits before providing care, healthcare providers can avoid claim denials, delays, and unexpected costs.

Patient Eligibility Verification Services help healthcare providers verify that patients are eligible for specific medical services and that their insurance coverage is active. This process is essential for improving billing accuracy, enhancing patient satisfaction, and ensuring compliance with insurance policies.

For healthcare providers in the United States, an efficient patient eligibility verification process can be the difference between timely reimbursement and payment delays. In this blog, we’ll explore the importance of patient eligibility verification, the challenges healthcare providers face without it, and how outsourcing this process can lead to better operational efficiency.

What Is Patient Eligibility Verification?

Patient eligibility verification is the process of checking whether a patient’s insurance coverage is active and whether the specific services required are covered under the patient's plan. It typically involves verifying important details such as the patient's:

Insurance provider: The health insurance company covering the patient.

Policy number: A unique identifier for the patient’s insurance plan.

Coverage details: The services covered under the patient's plan, such as outpatient visits, lab work, diagnostic testing, etc.

Co-pays and deductibles: The amount the patient is responsible for paying out-of-pocket.

This verification process can be completed either manually through phone calls and faxes or electronically via insurance portals or clearinghouses. Accurate verification helps healthcare providers ensure they will be reimbursed for the services provided and that patients will not face unexpected costs.

Why Is Patient Eligibility Verification Important?

Patient eligibility verification plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy financial flow for healthcare providers. The benefits of verifying eligibility before services are rendered include:

1. Reducing Claim Denials

Insurance claims often get denied due to inaccuracies in eligibility, leaving healthcare providers with the task of resubmitting claims or writing off the costs. By verifying patient eligibility upfront, healthcare providers can ensure that they are submitting accurate claims, reducing the risk of denial and improving cash flow.

2. Ensuring Proper Reimbursement

Insurance companies have specific policies regarding what they will cover and how much they will reimburse for various services. If a healthcare provider does not verify these details ahead of time, they risk performing services that are not covered, which can lead to a financial loss. By verifying eligibility, providers ensure that the services they perform are covered by insurance, thus securing proper reimbursement.

3. Improving Operational Efficiency

Manual patient eligibility verification can be time-consuming and prone to human error. By automating the verification process, healthcare providers can streamline operations, reduce administrative burdens, and allow staff to focus on patient care and other critical tasks. Verification tools and services can significantly speed up the process, making it more efficient and cost-effective.

4. Enhancing Patient Satisfaction

When a patient is aware of their insurance coverage and potential costs before they receive care, they are less likely to be surprised by unexpected bills. This proactive communication builds trust between the healthcare provider and the patient, leading to improved satisfaction and better patient retention.

5. Maintaining Compliance

Healthcare providers must comply with insurance regulations and policies, including verification requirements. Inadequate verification may lead to billing errors and non-compliance with insurance standards, which can have significant legal and financial consequences. Proper eligibility verification ensures compliance with these regulations and helps avoid penalties.

Challenges Healthcare Providers Face Without Proper Verification

Without an effective patient eligibility verification system, healthcare providers may encounter several challenges:

1. Increased Claim Denials and Rejections

One of the most common challenges is claim denials. If a patient’s insurance coverage is not verified before treatment, the healthcare provider risks submitting claims that are either rejected or denied by insurance companies. This often leads to revenue loss and additional administrative effort to correct and resubmit claims.

2. Extended Reimbursement Timelines

Claims that are delayed or denied due to eligibility issues can lead to extended reimbursement timelines. When payment is delayed, it can significantly affect a provider’s cash flow and overall financial health. Proactively verifying patient eligibility ensures that claims are submitted correctly the first time, improving the speed of reimbursement.

3. Poor Patient Communication

Without proper verification, healthcare providers may not know if a patient’s insurance covers the services provided. This lack of communication can result in the patient being surprised by large bills after treatment, which can damage the provider-patient relationship and affect patient satisfaction.

4. Administrative Overload

Handling eligibility verification manually is time-consuming and can overwhelm administrative staff. This can lead to delays in verifying eligibility, errors in the verification process, and a slowdown in the overall billing cycle. Automating this process or outsourcing eligibility verification services can help reduce the administrative burden and improve operational efficiency.

How Outsourcing Patient Eligibility Verification Can Help

Outsourcing patient eligibility verification services can provide healthcare providers with numerous benefits. By partnering with a trusted third-party service, healthcare providers can ensure a smoother, more efficient verification process. Here’s how outsourcing can benefit your practice:

1. Improved Accuracy

Outsourcing eligibility verification to a specialized service provider ensures that the process is handled by experts with extensive knowledge of insurance policies and verification systems. This helps reduce errors and ensures that all patient eligibility details are accurately verified before services are provided.

2. Faster Processing

Professional eligibility verification companies often have access to advanced tools and systems that allow for faster processing times. By leveraging these resources, healthcare providers can receive verification results in real-time or within a short period, allowing them to move forward with patient care without delays.

3. Reduced Administrative Costs

Outsourcing patient eligibility verification can help healthcare providers reduce the costs associated with maintaining an in-house verification process. With fewer administrative staff dedicated to the verification process, practices can reallocate resources to other important tasks, such as patient care.

4. Focus on Core Activities

By outsourcing eligibility verification, healthcare providers can free up their administrative staff to focus on core tasks like patient care, scheduling, and billing. This can enhance overall productivity and improve the patient experience.

5. Seamless Integration with Billing Systems

Many patient eligibility verification services integrate with your existing medical billing systems, making it easier to verify eligibility during the pre-billing process. This seamless integration helps ensure that all billing is accurate and compliant with insurance policies, leading to faster reimbursement.

HP Printer Drivers: Essential for Seamless Printing

In today’s digital world, printers are an indispensable part of both personal and professional environments. Among the many brands available, HP (Hewlett-Packard) stands out as one of the most popular names when it comes to printing solutions. Whether you’re using a home printer or an office-level multifunction device, HP printers require a crucial piece of software — drivers — to ensure they function properly with your computer or mobile device. In this article, we’ll explore what HP printer drivers are, why they’re important, how to install and update them, and common troubleshooting tips to keep your printing experience smooth.

What Are HP Printer Drivers?

An HP printer driver is a software program that acts as a bridge between your computer or mobile device and your HP printer. It enables your device to communicate with the printer by translating the data into a language that the printer understands. Without the correct printer driver, your device wouldn’t be able to send print jobs or recognize the printer, resulting in an inability to print.

There are different types of HP printer drivers, depending on the printer model and the operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux). These drivers ensure compatibility between the printer hardware and software, allowing users to take advantage of various printer features such as color printing, duplex printing, scanning, faxing, and more.

Why Are HP Printer Drivers Important?

1. Compatibility

Printer drivers ensure that the printer is compatible with your device’s operating system. Without the proper driver, the device and printer may not “speak” the same language, causing errors or failure to print.

2. Maximizing Printer Features

HP printers often come with a host of advanced features such as high-resolution printing, wireless connectivity, and multiple paper sizes. Printer drivers enable these features to work seamlessly by ensuring the correct configuration and settings are applied.

3. Efficient Print Jobs

When the HP printer software is installed correctly, print jobs are processed efficiently. The software interprets the printing request and transmits it to the printer in the correct format, ensuring accurate output and fast performance.

4. Error-Free Communication

Drivers play an essential role in troubleshooting and resolving printing errors. The driver software ensures that the printer’s status, error messages, and warnings are accurately displayed on your device, helping you diagnose and resolve problems quickly.

How to Install HP Printer Drivers

Installing the correct HP printer drivers is straightforward, but the process may vary slightly depending on the printer model and the operating system. Below are general instructions for installing HP printer drivers on Windows and macOS.

For Windows:

Connect the Printer to Your Computer: Make sure the printer is turned on and connected to your PC via USB or wireless network.

Download the Printer Driver: Visit the official HP website (hp.com) and navigate to the “Support” section. Enter your printer model number and download the latest driver for your specific version of Windows.

Run the Installer: Once the driver file is downloaded, double-click on it to launch the installation wizard. Follow the on-screen prompts to install the driver. During installation, you may be prompted to connect your printer to your computer. Follow the instructions to complete the setup.

Test the Printer: After installation, perform a test print to ensure the printer is functioning properly.

For macOS:

Connect the Printer to Your Mac: Ensure that your printer is powered on and connected to your Mac via USB or Wi-Fi.

Download the Printer Driver: Visit the HP support page, search for your printer model, and download the latest macOS driver.

Install the Driver: Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation process. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the printer driver.

Add the Printer to Your Mac: After installation, go to “System Preferences” and click on “Printers & Scanners.” Click the “+” button and select your HP printer from the list of available devices.

Print a Test Page: To ensure everything is set up correctly, try printing a test page from any application.

How to Update HP Printer Drivers

It’s important to keep your HP printer drivers up to date to ensure compatibility with the latest operating system updates, improve performance, and fix any known bugs. Here’s how to update your HP printer drivers:

1. Automatic Updates (Windows)

On Windows, the system may automatically check for and install driver updates through Windows Update. However, you can also use the HP Support Assistant or visit the HP website to manually download the latest drivers.

2. Automatic Updates (macOS)

On macOS, printer driver updates are usually managed through the Software Update tool in the Apple menu. If new drivers are available, you’ll be notified and prompted to install them.

3. HP Support Assistant

HP offers a software tool called HP Support Assistant, which can automatically detect and update your printer drivers. Download the HP Support Assistant from the HP website, and follow the on-screen instructions.

4. Manually Downloading from HP Website

Visit the HP website, search for your printer model, and download the latest driver version compatible with your operating system.

Troubleshooting Common HP Printer Driver Issues

Even with the right drivers, issues may occasionally arise. Here are some common problems and troubleshooting tips:

1. Printer Not Responding

Ensure the printer is properly connected to the computer, either through USB or a wireless network.

Restart both the printer and your computer.

Check if the printer is listed in your device settings (Printers & Scanners on Windows or macOS).

Reinstall the printer driver if the issue persists.

2. Printer Not Found During Installation

Double-check the printer connection and ensure it’s powered on.

Use the “Troubleshoot” option in the printer settings to diagnose connection issues.

For wireless printers, verify that the printer is connected to the correct Wi-Fi network.

3. Printing Errors or Poor Output

Check for outdated or incompatible drivers. Make sure you’ve installed the correct version for your operating system.

Try printing a test page to identify any specific issues with the print quality or formatting.

4. Slow Printing or Spooler Issues

Open the print queue on your computer and cancel any stuck print jobs.

Restart the print spooler service by typing “services.msc” in the Windows Run dialog and ensuring the spooler service is running.

Conclusion

HP printer drivers are an essential part of the printing process, enabling seamless communication between your computer and printer. They ensure that all the features of your HP printer are functional and help avoid common printing issues. By installing the correct drivers, regularly updating them, and troubleshooting issues promptly, you can ensure that your HP printer provides high-quality, efficient, and hassle-free performance. Always make sure to download drivers from the official HP website to guarantee that you’re using the latest, most secure version.
