    Moviepass: pay $10/mo, see one movie a day in theaters

    More like one person would spend $50 and we'd all torrent it.

    Phobia of flying...what to take?

    The back of an airplane does not get rocked less than others, FYI. If you want to decrease that you would want to sit nearest the plane's center of gravity which I believe would be just ahead of the wings but I forget exactly. I too had a fear of flying but actually researching all the safety...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    To be fair I'm too sure how reasonable it is for you to expect everyone playing EverQuest TLP servers in 2017 to have a triple digit IQ Edit: Vaclav beat me to it

    Prey - scifi/horror game by Arkane

    I thought this game was pretty great. I played a human-only run and only realized in the last few hours of my playthrough that I had to right-click in order to activate Combat Focus... I had been hitting my "5" key the whole rest of the game and thinking it was pretty mediocre and maybe I hadn't...

    Laptop Computers

    I had a Sager back around ~2009 and had the exact same complaint with it. I hadn't mentioned it in this thread since I figured it was a more isolated issue. I ended up replacing it with an upgraded Asus notebook and never looked back.

    Healthcare / science careers

    Like I said, adding unnecessary complexity to justify not paying for shit. That's all it is.

    Healthcare / science careers

    The entire coding system just pisses me off and seems obviously designed to be so cumbersome that companies can keep getting out of paying based on ever changing technicalities.

    What do you do?

    General surgery is a terrible idea for someone looking to be "happy as a clam" unless you have a personal need to define yourself by your job title, IMO

    Haha just saw a commercial for this movie that specifically cited "100% on rotten tomatoes."

    Yeah dude please take your Metformin. I know it seems like you have no control over things but the medicine really will help and taking a pill everyday is sooooo much easier than insulin you really want to avoid letting it get worse at all costs.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    If I never bought a Wii U, would it be a better idea to wait out the switch or think about a refurb? Seems like the Switch is getting a pretty underwhelming response but is it actually worse than the U or just not really a huge improvement?

    Dealing with addiction

    I would think no matter what you do part of the long term solution would be to not run in circles/situations where Cocaine is around. Maybe that isn't realistic in NYC, I dunno, maybe time to reevaluate your friends/hobbies?

    Autonomous Systems

    Maybe I didn't say it very clearly. The vast majority of deaths from car wrecks do not come from traumatic injury to a single transplantable organ. I'm not saying that it never happens, I'm sure it happens plenty often but still at the end of the day the number of organs entering the transplant...

    Autonomous Systems

    Completely serious. Sure you get plenty of internal damage but it's not like "oh god this guy needs a liver and he'd be just fine," it's "oh god this guy is fucked in so many ways and he's never coming back, I wonder what organs are still salvageable."
  21. Kithani

    Autonomous Systems

    I am not a trauma surgeon but I highly doubt there is a huge number of people getting in car wrecks that would otherwise survive if only for a liver/kidney/lung transplant. I'd put money on most car wreck deaths being brain/spinal cord or aorta related and we really don't transplant those.

    Path of Exile

    I'd suggest a totems, firestorm or maybe arc build for a newbie. I started with those when I first played last year and I thought they were pretty noob friendly.

    Did you actually injure your knee at any point in this story? Also, is the pain that is "getting worse...on the inside of the knee" the same as the pain you had initially or is it a new thing?

    Westworld

    Everybody needs to hug this shit out and chill. I think it's pretty obvious by now that William = MIB is a massive red herring. We think we've been watching a show based on the old Westworld film but the true season 1 twist ending is going to be center of the maze Arnold = Wyatt = Will Smith...

    Torrents

    I have a data limit on my phone plan so I prefer not to stream when I can. Do most people have unlimited data these days? I'm still on my parent's plan since dad's work pays for it so I'm not sure how out dated our plan actually is haha

    WTF new medication were you on? The rule of thumb is that meds will usually lower your A1C by ~1-2 points max iirc. That's fucking amazing, was this over the course of 3 months or like a year or two? Bravo sir.

    I've been up all night so maybe I've misread something, but reading your posts the most concerning thing is that you're 5'8 and 230lbs. And by concerning I mean you (like 99% of the country) should really think about making some diet and exercise changes or you will likely end up in an ER some...

    I don't think it's about money from the parks at all. I think it's about making robots that replace politicians or armies or something bigger than just money.

    Poll Cures: How easy are they?

    The cure for a lot of chronic diseases is not being a sedentary fatass who smokes for 20+ years unfortunately I don't think we're gonna magically make that go away with a pill, at least in our lifetimes.

    Poll Cures: How easy are they?

    I would actually take argument with the entire idea of antibiotics being the only "curative" form of medicine. If a patient who has high blood pressure and start him on an ACE and get it under control, is that not arguably a "cure"? Same for Metformin and diabetes, etc.

    Poll Cures: How easy are they?

    I am not a surgeon and am not familiar with the exact studies done, but yes I do think otherwise if you are actually making the statement that it would somehow be impossible for modern surgery to take place without the use of antibiotic prophylaxis.
