It’s probably just there for modders to use if they want it for something.

Win 10 was definitely an improvement over 8. I’d even argue that 10 as it started out was the best since xp. Of course now 10 has been fully enshitified but it used to be good.

It may be tiny but its hum is mighty.

I was just thinking the entire rotor assembly detaches and the helocopter falls away from it. But I think I like your idea better.

In high stress situations people frequently don’t even realize they got shot until after the adrenaline wears off. In my EMR course they trained us that we need to physically check for bullet wounds ourselves if a shooting was suspected because you can’t rely on the victim knowing that they’ve been shot.

That’s why mag dumping is more or less standard practice in survival situations. Sure, 1 bullet may kill the person, but it probably won’t do so for several minutes and until then you’ve only pissed them off. So you shoot and keep shooting until they actually drop. Which, when you’re talking about a particularly wimpy round like the one above, can take far more bullets that most people expect.

When I worked IT, our honeywell rep used to swing by at random and bring the entire building doughnuts. And I’m not talking gas station doughnuts, I’m talking doughnuts from the best bakery in the state (which happened to be local). Perhaps, not surprisingly we used a lot of honeywell stuff. It isn’t hard to bribe IT guys.

The best nomative determinism I’ve ever personally seen is a guy I knew named John Data who worked at IBM back in the day. Can you imagine calling someone out to work on your compoter system and the guy who shows up is literally called Mr. Data.

Ah. I must have missed that. In that case it’s a little more understandable. He just got pissed off and snapped. Even so you need to be a little more thick skinned than that if you want to be a doctor. I don’t know all of the details of course but he still shouldn’t have sunk to insults.

So this doctor is a complete douchbag and should not be practicing medicine. But he’s also not entirely wrong. Medically speaking what your gender is is irrelevant most of the time. Of course it applies to any procedures you may be undergoing or medications you may be taking to alter your body to match your gender but that’s about it. Any competent doctor will of course respect your gender identity because understanding and having a good relationship with the patient is important. But medically speaking they care more about whether you are at risk for prostate cancer or uterine cysts and your biological sex (alongside your medical history) is a much better indicator of that (outside of relatively rare exceptions). If you are a trans woman who has had bottom surgery then not every gyno is going to have the skillset to help you because that just isn’t what many of them are trained for. I’ve definitely had my doctor tell me I need to see someone else for certain issues because they just didn’t have the skillset to help. Of course there are far better ways to say that than how this “doctor” chose to do so, but him not providing care that he wasn’t trained to provide isn’t the issue here. His douchbag attitude and him not providing a referal to a doctor who could help is the issue.

It’s funny how China has been pushing for years to become more like the US in every way except for human rights SMH

Fuck China and all but I really wouldn’t use the US as a human rights goal post right now.

For those wondering like I was, mousewheels typically use optical or magnetic rotary encoders. However some do actually use potentiometers. I’m pretty sure the one pictured is an encoder though; all of the potentiometer based mousewheels I can find are way more bulky than that.
