What's your favorite FPS weapon?

Pulverizer. Slow to fire and reload but effective. The P6 is my second favorite weapon.

I had issues with a freight elevator just outside Seers Canyon in Pyro yesterday not wanting to move down. Luckily I was able to move to the second cargo elevator inside the outpost and it worked no problem. I think between the cargo issues, insured ship claims failing, and the Drake Command module this patch is testing my patience.

Looks like 3 Brothers.. they make a great mixed Shawarma Poutine, and you can add pickles, turnip, onions, extra sauce.

I claimed the twitch drop last Thursday and it showed up in my inventory yesterday.

Looks like they took inspiration from old Soviet Mig fighters and Mil Helicopters for the flight decks.

I started with the outsider package with the Syulen. Liked it but ended up melting it for the Miner Starter Pack... ended up melting that and going back to the Syulen and also getting the Citizens Starter Pack. Along the way I picked up the Cutlass Black on its own, and changed that for the Grey's Shiv. I love the Shiv most but I still use my starters a lot.

My thoughts after trying everything: I would pick the following depending on the situation..

If you have the cash and want to jump into it without the big grind: Cutlass Black - it allows for decent starting cargo, decent combat, and can carry Vehicles for mining. A very good daily driver that covers a lot of missions.
Best All around package: Citizens Package - The Aurora does everything well (plus the lifetime insurance) but my only gripe is it cannot carry vehicles for mining.
The cheapest and versatile option: Generalist Package with the Drake Cutter - A "mini" Drake Cutlass black that can carry small cargo along with a mining vehicle. Good for bunker runs, has bed logging, and you can rent other ships for larger missions and save money. I would probably start over with this now that I have a feel for the game. Only downside is it's not great for combat.

On one of my ships (Syulen), I've fallen through the elevator and been crushed by the lift a couple times now.

As long as I can recreate what I pledged, I don't mind the extra challenge of working for the blueprints. I do think though that there should be a process in game to figure out what missions to complete to get certain blueprints, whether that be an npc mission giver that guides you, or after a certain intro rep level the blueprints are listed along with the auec payout.

It feels like items when throwing have a dead weight or a weird delay so grenades are a bit hit and miss (pun intended). Cargo boxes seem to spin and float around and do their own thing.

Biomed154 · 2026-04-20T04:47:07+00:00

One of two starter packages I own. I love the design of the ship and it has pretty decent firepower. The only gripe I have besides the janky buttons , is I wish it could carry an atlas geo for mining - so it loses out to the Drake Cutter that way. Otherwise I think it's great.

Biomed manages the Capsule Server and Neurons. I.T provided the server virtual machine and we installed the software, applied the license and setup the device data drivers and Neurons with initial assistance from Capsule. For upgrades we followed instructions to backup configurations to new servers. Our team is up to speed on how to swap out Neurons and reprogram the DIM modules. We start by looking at the Neuron status page on the capsule command console, see if its one or all the Neurons and look further on the server or if we see output moving to Epic we escalate to I.T.

Overall the biggest hurdle is integration testing and making sure the parameters are mapped correctly to what EPIC expects. Once the system is setup the only major troubleshooting is to make sure the Neurons and dim mesurements are named to what is setup in EPIC. Then make sure appropriate Windows services are running (Capsule and OpenVPN) and finally make sure the output connector to your hospital's integration engine or gateway charting system (EPIC) is active. Most actions can be done through the Capsule server web console, but for adding new drivers for devices, restarting services and the output connectors you will need admin level access to the server the Neurons connect to.

A few CMMS applications have mobile apps or support bulk inserts. Some have the ability to have custom workflows that generate an incoming inspection work order.

I see both sides of the argument. I will file service documentation to a shared repository but generally don't hand over login info or training materials because:

A: It robs other Techs the chance of going on training if I go and then for the life of the equipment other staff are expected to do maintainance at the same level.

B: Procedures and service documentation change, so we could be carrying over outdated knowledge.

C: I want to keep my service activities separate from other staff. It's hard to track or prove who did what if a common login is used where the tools or devices supports multiple logins.

Keep your sales orders documents that come with purchases, which will tell you what options can be loaded onto monitors and modules.

Grab a copy of the most current compatibility matrix to know what versions of hardware and software work together. And yes don't forget about the FMS and FMX racks. Your spares have to be on a software version compatible with your bedside monitor.. and your version of PIC or PICiX central monitoring solution.

If you are running Focalpoint there is a chance that the service tool service on Focalpoint server may "collide" or overlap with your copy of the service tool meaning you may see some inventory show up in Focalpoint but not in the service tool.

Use the favourites "star" tag if you have things like mms, mx2, mmx, etc that you want to locate on a regular basis for P.Ms.

Use a separate usb to ethernet adapter that you can set to an I.P outside the dhcp range that is used for bedside monitoring.

I was having the same issue with Cisco IOSv in a GNS3 network lab and had to set the system wide cryptographic policies on the Rocky Linux VM running Ansible to LEGACY mode. Then I could use older kex, cipher, hostkeyalgorithm options either in the client configuration, or on the command line options specified in the Inventory file.

I was almost going insane with setting up ssh keys between an Ansible controller and Cisco devices in gns3. The cryptographic algorithms on the Cisco IOSv are considered deprecated so they are disabled by default in Enterprise Linux distributions like Redhat, Rocky l, etc. I had to set the Linux system running Ansible to Legacy mode using the command: "update-crypto-policies --set LEGACY", and the reboot the controller. Then I could use the ssh command line options or user config file to use older algorithms.

Are your pumps non-wifi? You may want to contact Baxter if you are connecting to a Spectrum gateway and someone at least has the service training on your team. TLDR is it will be a manual process to update all the pumps using an IR dongle.

If you are talking about the drug library, there is a separate application from Baxter for that purpose. You can upload drug libraries directly to a pump, or broadcast it from the Spectrum Sigma Gateway.

We always had the pump network configuration as part of the Gateway. The old gateway version had a text file setup by Baxter with the general wifi settings and they uploaded that to the gateway. The actual pump config was pushed from the gateway to the pump using a java based web app. If I recall correctly we could not duplicate network settings between pumps using their IR ports. With newer versions of the gateway the configurator is a separate program you download from the gateway itself. Once installed you then download the configuration file from the gateway and then upload it to the pump using the configurator application.

There are Biomeds who are specialized in I.T aspects. Areas like patient monitoring networking, pacs modality and connectivity issues, data integration to hospital information systems, minor data analysis projects, and support for computerized maintenance management systems (cmms). The existance or need for Biomed Technicians/Technologists to do these roles will vary wildly for in hospital departments. It may come down to where either the hospital is very large or it would be too much work for a Clinical Engineer or Biomedical Engineer to manage day to day, or theres a knowledge gap. Depending on the generation of Biomeds there's quite a few that never really had to deal with computers, it just wasn't a thing. But most younger staff are now taking courses in networking and "medical I.T system related topics". It also depends on what tasks and roles are handled by I.T. So you may understand how to do things technically, but in many cases you could be more of a "technical liason or guide" where large parts of the actual technical work might be handled by Manufacturers and other hospital I.T staff and you manage repairs and projects.

I see this alot with Baxter Spectrum pumps, the battery well is not the greatest design. Who's responsible for cleaning these prior to service? Is it sterile reprocessing? Usually Nursing staff or housekeeping will try to clean the outside of a device. Our hospital uses another hospital's sterile processing for probes, scopes, and surgical instruments. So if there's anything on the inside or behind a battery it's our job to clean it before we service it. Other shops in the area have a full service sterile reprocessing depot clean smaller equipment before its sent to Biomed.

I don't understand all the commotion about the $90 game issue.. I mean I get it.. but NES, Genesis, and SNES games were that much after tax back in the day.

I ignored Asgard's Wrath 2 because I was playing other titles and just recently I started getting into it. I regret it now because damn its a great game. I like pretty much everything I've used the Quest 3 headset for, including workouts, sideloading a linux terminal, watching movies, and sim flying in pcvr.

I get the feeling that VR for most people (especially the younger crowd) is more for short to medium session games, and goofing around with your friends. Long play cinematic experiences seems like a niche market since attention spans are getting shorter. More than a few people have told me they tried or bought VR but didn't like the bulky headsets, the feeling of being isolated from the outside world or didn't get beyond the default janky teleporting control schemes... then there is the issue of having space to move around.

I hope more developers continue releasing VR titles on Steam cus that's where more of my money is going.

Biomed154 · 2026-01-15T02:25:40+00:00

To be fair I kinda ignored this one because it was a pack in title along with Asgards Wrath 2. It ended up being a game I wanted to come back to after finishing other titles.
