« on: March 28, 2024, 12:07:25 pm »I strongly advise against doing that. Boring as it might be, the exam will be about what the teacher is saying in class, and not about the content of some course on the internet.Some wildlife dragged a half-eaten deer carcass into the middle of my yard. Not a situation I was expecting to have to deal with.Do you live in the countryside , why there are some wildlife ? Which sounds horrible, I couldn't imagine that you are living with wolves , deers , foxes or some other terrorible animals .
The only places I thought they should stay are the protecting areas or the zoos .
My histology and embryology began today , I was interested in it before, but when the professor began to teach the same time I lost my interest . She was just reading her very old (maybe even
elder than me) power point ,seemingly like just taking a abbreviate glimpse of it without any teaching techniques .
I would rather learn it online with some free courses .

Tbh my bet is that its a false flag. Hence why they didnt try very hard to chase the perpetrators. They'll produce some conveniently dead Ukrainian afterwards to take the blame

Honestly if they are minors 10 years of imprisonment is probably far more than what they'd get in most countries.

« on: March 12, 2024, 02:03:19 pm »Trying to remake marignonese names in russian translation of Dominions 5. Few previous ones were simple enough affair - find a poem where developers pilfered those names from in english and russian, then search and copypaste. I know a decent place for russian books, but it turned out that all of google's greedy sites are hellbent on not posting Song of Roland in particular in a format that is searchable, nevermind finding the right translation from french. But! For all my trouble, I found where the Pigmote Isle rhyme in Sunless Sea comes from. One more obscure reference got.Spoiler (click to show/hide)
EDIT: Pontificating cartoon songs worked on me, they did, but one about not missing your chance went right over my head.

And at that time there weren't any about videogame addiction, which turned out to be no less ruinous to the body than any other. Bad eyesight? Crooked back? Pah.

Life Advice / Re: How do you find out if you have metal in your body for an MRI?
« on: March 06, 2024, 03:17:40 am »
It should be in your clinical notes. Pacemakers and other electronics are the obvious problematic ones as they can malfunction. But make sure they know about any potential implants. Also let them know if you ever did metalworking.

Maybe a bit. His impression post exploration is that its normal but is offering more to RPL (possibly due to his anxiety). Tbf having someone anxious about something can drive you to be more defensive and make extra tests in case you're missing something. Specially in the case of a second opinion. If someone seeks attention repeatedly for something that is not that serious... I think its not bad practice to consider that there could be something missing from the picture (even if at the end its just anxiety).
Obviously I'm not there and I dont know how bad it is or how either ortho managed the situation. But to me it sounds like ortho #1 at most has a poor bedside (not infrequent in surgeons tbh), that the a&e (doctor? Nurse?) was overly defensive in the report, and that third dr went through the motions of starting from scratch (for various reasons) but that it seems that you basically have a sprain.

Its not necessarily what you think. People come to clinic all the time with random stuff that someone has told them that needs to be reviewed but has actually already been reviewed prior.

I kinda doubt they'd do referrals for that but its not impossible. In my own practice I bounce back ~80% of the referrals that come in.

My guess is there were no significant findings, that the 'abnormal'part referred to the quality of the image being poor and made it unsuitable for even a conventional xray report, and that in any case MRI imaging was probably needed all along (obviously on a nonurgent basis).

« on: February 03, 2024, 01:47:20 am »That, free movement through and ability to work in one of the largest polities in the world without having to deal with our fucked up immigration or visa processes, the forms of assistance embassies can provide (which from what I understand aren't trivial, if they don't decide to shit on you for being poor or foreign or something), access to federal programs of various sorts (which is significantly more attractive if you're not, like, poor, tbh), birthright citizenship for your children, so on and so forth. It's mostly residence and ability to participate freely in the economic and political spheres, but that's legitimately a really damn big thing when you're talking what amounts to the current world hyperpower, even if you don't intend to live there or visit much or at all.But the US is not a particularily nice place to live as far as the western world goes. I can understand why you'd rather have an US passport than, say, a Cambodian one. But for instance pretty much any EU passport would get you at least the same perks, if not more.
There's also a reason many ex-pats retain citizenship even with the hassle that involves, heh.

What are the benefits? Honest question here. If I got a second citizenship (lets assume EU) I'd want to retain my Spanish one for public healthcare access & other similar benefits. But does US citizenship have any perks beyond residence?

# Superbowl Cull
---
The 'Superbowl Cull' became a grim chapter in human history. Once an annual sporting event celebrated by millions, it was perverted into a brutal population control measure by an authoritarian regime desperate to address rampant overpopulation and resource shortages.
According to the fragmented records of this period, on the day of the event, unsuspecting spectators were locked inside the stadium, their excitement for the game turning to horror as government announcements echoed through the arena, declaring the initiation of the Cull. Participants were forced into gladiatorial combat, armed with an array of weapons dropped onto the field. The jumbotron, once used to replay touchdowns, now displayed a live death count, chillingly ticking upward as the ‘game’ progressed. It was decreed that only when half of the attendees lay defeated would the remaining survivors be granted exit, their lives spared but forever scarred by the ordeal.
The Superbowl Cull became a perverse form of entertainment, broadcasted to the masses as a stark reminder of the government's control over life and death. It was a spectacle designed to satiate the populace's basest instincts under the guise of maintaining societal balance. The event continued annually until the regime's downfall, after which it was universally condemned as one of the darkest acts of population control ever perpetrated.
