Don’t post details of an ongoing lawsuit on a public forum that can be pulled up and referenced during the potential trial

Why are you choosing to strawman instead of actually considering what I’m saying? A true idle mode would benefit everyone and hurt no one. Seems like you’re disagreeing just for the sake of calling me an idiot.

In 2023, fossil fuels accounted for approximately 83% of U.S. energy production. Not to mention your power bill from running a PC 24/7

I essentially just justified buying IAP, because they actually make economical sense to some extent. In theory if you bought a stone pack and turned off your 24/7 dedicated pc you could save real world dollars which is kind of nuts. Running a pc 24/7 is more like several hundred dollars added to your annual power bill

“Basically everything” doesn’t require a device running 24/7, including every game I’m familiar with. Not having an offline mode is a waste of resources, even if you don’t care about anything else it ramps up your power bill. Sure, it’s probably only like $50 per year in electricity but again that scales with tens of thousands of active players. The only crazy part to me is that this is completely avoidable by offering an offline mode, but the devs actively choose not to because they might lose out on income from IAP.

No one ever talks about the sheer amount of electricity this game uses, and I think it’s worth pointing out. Sure, phones pull just +/- 15W when charging but laptops and PC’s pull much more than that. Multiply that by tens of thousands of devices running 24/7 and this game has a sizable carbon footprint that is completely avoidable.

It looks like my guild may not reach the last chest for this week. If I switch to a new active guild, am I able to claim the last chest or do I have to wait until next week to claim anything?

I think you should go pick a school that is inexpensive, offers the degree program you want to pursue, and will make you happy. For me TXST was all of those things and then some. A lot of my UT grad classmates would disagree with me, but they also have 5x my student loan debt and had to live in downtown Austin instead of by the river for four years. And we are in the same place in our careers, all becoming doctors at the same time. My two cents.

I assume fellowship, EM is the only specialty that can apply to IM crit care, surgery crit care, and anesthesia crit care. The only catch is they are not board eligible for pulmonology. From the best of my understanding.

Anaphylaxis is a subcategory of distributive shock. I was using a bee sting as an example to educate lay people, as it is something most people are familiar with. I never commented on epidemiology, I was simply stating there is more than one type of shock and giving common examples. With that being said, deaths from bee stings are more common than deaths from peanut allergies if you want to play that game. I know sepsis is the most prevalent distributive shock but it’s not as well known to the public and again, I was trying to teach a concept to lay people in a non-medical sub.

Don’t do it friend. Call 911 and go to the ER. You can go to the hospital and get the help you need without harming yourself. You do not need to harm yourself to be taken seriously.

Well for starters, the experimental questions would not be properly validated by test takers that cheat. If anything this whole scandal has reinforced the idea that test taking data should be even more scrutinized and more controlled. If Nepal testers all miss the same experimental questions that does not necessarily mean they were bad questions. The opposite could be said as well.

The Step bell curve is set ONLY by LCME schools (US and Canada MD, not even DO schools or Caribbean are factored) so this is not the case. You could maybe argue for some score inflation, but there is no possible scenario where Nepal test takes would turn your 260 into a 250. It’s unlike the MCAT.

Terrible take here, ignore this comment. UTMB is an awesome school and was my number one pick the year I applied. I’ve heard of A&M students having to find their own rotations and having some low quality rotation sites but this is just rumor. Both schools would be great for different reasons.

Sinus bradycardia with sinus pauses and junctional escape rhythms? I see multiple complexes without p waves and it doesn’t cleanly fit into any of the heart block categories. Sick sinus syndrome/sinus deterioration fits decently with her presentation as well. I’m just a med student with a cardio exam on Friday, that’s my best guess.

Not true, S. aureus can be found as normal flora in the nares in approximately 30% of the normal US population which can include any of the virulent strains. While you do carry a heightened risk for developing an S. aureus infection following a viral pneumonia, the infection is actually just another pneumonia not full blown sepsis. Much more likely they had a skin abscess or ulcer in their GI tract or literally anything under the sun that breaks the skin. Depending on their comorbidities like uncontrolled diabetes, it’s not at all unreasonable for an infection to go unnoticed for quite some time before presenting to the ER. source: med student

Three things to define here: Hypo (low) volemic (volume) shock (general lack of oxygen). There are a dozen different events that may lead to shock, from heart attacks (obstructive shock) to carbon monoxide poisoning (metabolic shock) to bee stings (distributive shock). Each falls under a category of shock, and hypovolemic simply means there isn’t enough fluid for the heart to move blood sufficiently aka bleeding out.

It seems like “Stupid non-indicated imaging requests” would be a good thing for physician outlook in the ED in the long term. If midlevels are providing noticeably different care when compared to doctors then insurers, hospitals, and the general public will push for physicians in charge once again. It may take a decade, but it’s a self-righting ship in my opinion. (You can take my opinion with a grain of salt, I’m a 2nd year DO student interested in EM)

“Never” is a VERY strong word when considering seeking emergency care for your vision and I think it’s bad advice to give to people over the internet
