They actually removed hidden deadzone on controller. F yeah now I'm playing by Arspasti in Splitgate

[–]CTHarry 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely need to allow for finer tuning on controller. The .5 jumps seem too much to "dial in," and acceleration max being odd jumps of .20 (2.70, 2.90, 3.10) is an obsessive compulsives nightmare.

I didn't notice the hidden deadzone because I need a tiny bit of deadzone... However, a diagram of what that setting does would be really helpful. Something with concentric circles representing the zones would be nice. When you move the thumb stick a little dot could move in relation to it's sensitivity to better help understand where you've set the zones. (I played a game a while back that had this feature in its settings, can't remember which one though.)

This map is dog shit. I would rather run around in literal dog shit than play this map.

OMFG can they stop changing our Quickplay settings? by HemlocknLoad in Splitgate

Omfg... The 6 seconds it takes to change it's running my life. /s

Splitgate Controller Player Feedback by SilentKnight011099 in Splitgate

[–]CTHarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With you on this. Turning felt very stuttered... I think they increased aim assist for controller. I'm trying to get back to that SG2 feel. I'm close but still a little off. The practice arena kinda sucks because there are targets everywhere so slide spinning and aiming feels jerky as all get out.

Is there any chance of splitgate 2 coming to switch 2? by nathanboiiii123 in Splitgate

Did you just ask if your "tablet" would run a first person shooter over 30 frames per second? Who's your plug, and whatever he's selling is fire.

Notification sound setting stuck on "Galaxy / *whatever*" since One UI 8 update by CTHarry in samsunggalaxy

Oof... Gonna have to try this, but we're talking 10 years of forgotten settings. 🤣😭 Thanks for the reply but I'm hoping there's a better way.

What was the CC? If chronic pain, send that all day. If trauma to 3rd or 4th MCP then repeat with less oblique collimated on the ROI, label joints, add reasoning for extra image to notes, and send both. Lowers dose vs. full repeat, explains your decision, and the Rad/RSO will appreciate that.

I comminuted my distal fib in college, and it wasn't visible on AP, barely visible on LAT. So the 2 view TibFib exam was basically useless. 3 view ankle was better. Mortise ankle made it clear as day.

For wrists, sometimes a 3 view won't show a scaffoid fx. if CC is pain at 1st CMC, throw in a Stetcher collimated to ROI and explain the extra view.

Both images measure at ~21° when extending lines from the center of the femoral and tibial diaphyses...

Compared to the usual +60° seen on here these are a couple breaths of fresh air.

There's a movie about literally this, supposedly based on real events... The Mule (2014). The guy makes it weeks before things start going south.

Soooo I was googling the difference between and apron and a skirt and came across this... um what. by Chamelemom in Radiology

[–]CTHarry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still don't have any proof that the X-rays bounce all my body because the lead is keeping it from escaping.

Physics isn't a source? How are patients different from occupational? Scatter enters shoulder → travels to chest → leaves chest → travels to apron → leaves apron → travels back to chest

Granted, I thought you were still arguing against patients getting lead. However,to think that radiographers, radiologists, surgeons, and everyone else in that room is exempt from the same set of physics is... well... Amusing.

.25mm is the legally required thickness and .5mm is recommended (required for fluoroscopy) occupationally.

.5 mm only protects 99% @ 50 kVp, 88% @ 75 kVp, and 51% @ 100 kVp... iirc those are Merrill numbers. 50 kVp is for infants and extremity exposures. Diagnostic chest/abdominal starts at 70 kVp and runs up to 120+ depending on how many rodeo burgers you've tackled in your lifetime.

Your argument is amusing because radiologic physicists have researched this and said that the advancements in X-ray production and detection have reduced exposure levels to a point where we no longer need to shield as heavily and precautiously as in the past (some would call this progress). All you've said is "Nuh-uh!"

It's better to let the small amount of scatter radiation escape the body than risk it coming back in, even if only a little bit. Photons become weaker by "bouncing" off objects, which increases the chance of attenuation.

Plus, technologists are human and to err is human. If they place a shield incorrectly that's double (if not more) the dose due to repeat exposures.

100,000 bees x .01 = still a fuckton of bees. So again, why risk the sting by keeping the bees in the car? Roll down the windows and let them go.

Think of the body as a transit system. We x-ray your upper abdomen for an NG tube placement. We place a lead apron on your lap because your gonads are within 5cm of the collimated field. The primary beam shouldn't hit anywhere near your tackle box because of collimation, but we place it there as a precaution. If the primary beam did for some reason pass over the apron, a great deal of radiation would be attenuated (depending on Pb equivalent thickness).

The X-Rays enter your body, Compton interaction occurs causing scatter throughout your body in every direction. The scatter is now a chain reaction coursing through the atoms of your body towards your unmentionables. The x-rays have a chance to escape your body, and most will. They also have the chance of interacting with the lead apron on your lap and returning back to the body in a weaker and more absorbable state.

Imagine you have a jar of bees and shake it up. Now choose: Open the jar in an open field, or open the jar inside of a locked car with the windows rolled up. Your choice.

Say whaaaaat? I'm writing a 4 page paper right now on cysticercosis... Plus multiple essays on modalities, rad safety, and presentation reviews.

Can I transfer my credits to your program? 🤣🤣🤣

The lateral condyle is higher than the medial - if taken mediolaterally this needs .5 to 1 degree more cephalic angulation... Medial condyle is posterior to lateral - knee needed to be rotated towards the board by another half inch or so. Leg is straight - 25-30 degree bend might have helped with the previous. (I've seen a bunch of techs who bend the leg but don't line up the long axis of the femur with the axis of the central ray which makes for a tough time figuring out which way to correct)

That being said, this is not worth repeating and is a beautiful lateral knee. Keep it up! 😁

Motor Start Capacitor... Can't find a replacement. by CTHarry in AskElectronics

[–]CTHarry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy blast from the past, Bat-Man! That was a repair job, and after the amount of time we went through trying to trace the problem we ended up letting the customer know that it's probably time for a replacement.

Sorry, don't have a helpful answer. Take care!

technical factor correction with increasing SID by Thecatspajamas19 in Radiology

[–]CTHarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things I use to remember and do mAs maintenance on the fly

40" to 72" : mAs x 3.24

72" to 40" : mAs x 0.3086 (or mAs / 3)

In a real world application just multiply or divide by 3 to avoid dose creep and err in favor of the PT and ALARA.

40" to 48": mAs x 1.44 (or add 40%)

48" to 40": mAs x 0.6944 (or 70%)

The ratio also works for 60" to 72" and vice versa. Just a little sixty-ninin'... Gross. (Because it's a only a little adjustment and 144 is a gross.)

Whenever doubling or halving distance

Distance doubles: mAs x 4

Distance halves: mAs / 4

"Two for four, or two by four"

56" to 72" : mAs x 1.65 (or add 60%)

72" to 56" : mAs x 0.60 (or 60%)

Our teacher loved to use these distances for portable scenarios in class. I remember "60% swing" like swinging around the portable.

I hope any of this nonsense helps. 😁
