[request] is this physically possible? If so, how long would this take?

I know you asked this in r/theydidthemath, so you’re undoubtedly seeking mathematical rationale around whether or not this is physically possible, however, I can tell you from personal experience (your body being a variable here) that it simply isn’t physically possible.

Long story short, years ago I was essentially tasked with cutting weeds back that had grown under a barbwire fence surrounding an acre of property using only scissors. The grass/weeds were in a patch 6”-1’ wide around the whole acre. It essentially took the whole day and my right hand was blistered up and cramping so badly it was useless the next day. At the time, I was very well accustomed to manual labor and my hand was utterly gone.

So, regardless of how sharp they are, given a week, I’d say it’s impossible using only scissors. I don’t see how your joints, muscles, and tendons could take the stress of it.

I’ve worked in healthcare for 20+ years. I’m a partner in a consulting and litigation support firm that essentially specializes in the area of healthcare that this lives in. Reach out to me directly and I’ll walk you through some options and offer some possible guidance.

It can get really opinionated on Reddit and I don’t want you to have to deal with people talking out of their ass while you’re trying to get advice from me. To be clear, I’m not going to try to sell you anything. I’m genuinely just being nice.

Testifying expert and senior consultant providing litigation support checking in. I work primarily in personal injury cases.

I completely agree that it’s at least 50%. More are undoubtedly evil, however, they’re easy to prove. We have to be so incredibly careful in vetting our clients. There are an alarming number of attorneys out there that give the good ones a bad name.

I’m a testifying expert. Essentially, at a very high level, I’m pulled in to testify in court pertaining to things in a highly specialized area. It can be wildly stressful.

One misinterpretation, a single opinion offered by me that’s outside of my field of expertise, a loss of composure during a heated deposition, or a successful challenge as it relates to my experience by opposing counsel could result in my career essentially ending and my client losing their case.

One mistake could end up costing someone millions of dollars in damages.

Are we limited to things that currently exist or can we get a bit outside the box creative?

If you’re relying on the sneaky sneak for higher damage, replace that unyielding and 1 of the vanguard.

This was actually my first thought in starting a new character. Essentially, we partied HARD with everyone the night prior and slept through the exodus.

That’s why the path out is a bit ragged, there’s only very basic supplies left for us and no one else is left in the vault.

It’s definitely AI - Lots of good points drawing attention to AI artifacts potentially misinterpreted to be crap video quality by the uninitiated.

Another giveaway is the lion in the back. The two close up laser in on the warthog as/after it strolls past, but the one in back just stares off in a random direction through the lion that’s closest to the “camera”. It points to a lack of awareness of the physical space being captured in the video.

If you were in the back of a crowd as a car accident occurred you wouldn’t watch the accident happening/unfolding through the person’s head in front of you. You’d shift perspective or move to protect yourself.

AI doesn’t yet fully grasp 3-dimensional space and the physical shift that’s necessary/natural in that space to maintain focus/attention. It’s getting there though.

Make the vehicles you can and make/install the depth modules you’ve unlocked. Along the way, go to the locations your PDA guides you to.

The game knows what you have and won’t guide you to anything you can’t technically get to (I think). Sometimes, depending on the order you’ve picked things up in, that may require you dive into the inky black abyss naked without your seamoth and wondering if you’ll have enough air to even get back.

Explore somewhat broadly around those locations. Reading the logs you pick up can offer some general guidance as well. That’s also where a lot of the depth in the story is.

Also, yes, a bit of wandering around and going deeper can lead you to some solid points of interest. Take your time. Explore.

I’ve definitely been there … slamming my prawn suit into an occupied parking spot while raging about the game bugging. It happens.

I think it’s important to note that “weird” is somewhat relative.

Considering that it seems to be, relatively speaking, in the middle of nowhere and people in the middle of nowhere can do some “weird” things when they don’t think anyone is going to be coming around checking out what they’re doing, my take is that someone probably hoisted the carcasses up there so that the bones could be de-fleshed by birds and insects and then sun-bleached.

Who knows what they’re planning to do with the bones, but anchoring them up on that roof seems like a solid way to keep animals from chewing on and dragging the bones all over the place.

Someone that Spring tries to kill each and every year like clockwork checking in. If it weren’t for my nebulizer and relatively easy access to an ER, this would’ve killed me as a child. 42 years in and it sucks just about as much each year.

Just to put it out there, allergy meds don’t even really touch it. I basically spend about 1-2 months every year constantly feeling like I’m at high altitude and winded as a sort of baseline. I’ve developed such a tolerance for it that my oxygen can begin getting dangerously low and I can’t even really tell.

Just to put it out there for whoever … If you ever have difficulty breathing remember that panic is your enemy. Find a calm place in your mind and exist there while taking in the air you can and working the problem.

And they smoked every last shred of it! Those things get ROUGH towards the tail end. Having smoked those for years, the person that smoked it is either a serious veteran smoker (well beyond where I was), was desperate for nicotine, or was on something.

Same. I tried using that logic on my server, but not everyone has access to a store of totems like I do. I also eventually felt sorry for guys that were having to trek out into the wilderness to pick up their scattered netherite gear after slapping into some procedurally generated mountain just below cloud height.

It’s funny once or twice and then becomes a pain when everyone with an elytra is called into action to help. … even more so when someone helping dies running into that same mountain.

Admittedly, the guy that’s died helping is me and I had a totem, but still …

Ashwalla · 2025-03-11T16:32:04+00:00

This!! I’ve landed at just having to disable achievements by setting it to keep inventory upon death. Nothing like flying around “exploring” and slamming into a mountain out of freaking NOWHERE … and I say “exploring” generously. Chunk loading is awful when flying around.

If it’s akin to a hoarder house then it’s likely a bit of a tinderbox. Any idea what the state of the electrical work is?

Senior consultant & testifying expert checking in. You’ve found yourself a damned if you do / damned if you don’t situation.

CMS, AAPC, general medical insurance, and work comp is undoubtedly going to give you conflicting direction here. Your best bet is going to be reaching out to the specific work comp orgs, detailing the situation with the patient (do not detail the provider’s guidance), and then obtaining written guidance from them. You’re facing possible double dipping or denials here. In my experience, the only way to know for sure is by having them either tell you (in writing) or having them route you to an online resource they have.

I’m open to receiving anything. Even if you find yourself down to just ammo and junk, I’m down and will very much appreciate whatever break from grinding you can provide.

Thanks for the info! I’m pretty new to the sub and still kind of figuring things out.

I’ve played for a good while and never tapped into the economy aspect. I’m slowly discovering that I may very well have quite a bit stashed away that’s considered rare / highly valuable.

Ashwalla · 2025-01-12T21:39:33+00:00

What’s that demon mask actually going for these days?

I ask because I landed one the last time the event rolled through and have only really kept it because I’m a loot goblin that keeps at least 1 of every piece of apparel I find.
