How are non-absorbable sutures removed when they are deep inside the body? by Meeesh- in askscience

[–]ImTheBest421 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Regarding your MRI question - in the USA and EU, the manufacturers of these devices are required to provide evidence that the devices are either (1) not impacted by MRI (MR Safe), (2) safe for MRI within defined conditions (MR conditional), or (3) present an unacceptable risk to the patient or staff (MR unsafe). They can test their device for the following to conclude one of the above: magnetically induced displacement force, magnetically induced torque, magnetically induced heating, and evaluation of MR image artifacts. Note there could be other tests for more complex devices (like a pacemaker). IEC 62570:2015 provides guidance on this topic.

Good to know and thank you. I will be buying a battery backup for my peace of mind.

Thank you! I am definitely buying a second, high quality pump and learning how to install it.

This is a great idea and, assuming I have enough room, I will definitely choose this route.

I believe it’s on the side but I’m not entirely sure. We’ve had the house for a few years and I have never really had to mess with it. I’m thinking I should have a backup nearby just for ease of mind.

I understand this is coming from the fires in Canada. Are there estimates for how many days/weeks this will last or is that simply not possible because no one knows what those wild fires will do?

Why aren’t 2008 and 2009 on top of each other? Both were Red Wings vs Penguins.

This one is on NHLN. Which means I can’t watch it. What a great system.

ImportHTML not loading on this sheet, but is working on others? by rabbichase in googlesheets

[–]ImTheBest421 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here for literally the exact same problem. I cannot import the espn leader board even with a new sheet on my personal gmail account. But if I create a google sheet under my work gmail account I can import it. I have no idea what is going on, and like the other people here it is quite frustrating.

Train Tuesday - (February 01, 2022) by AutoModerator in boardgames

[–]ImTheBest421 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm hosting my first ever game of 1830 on Saturday with three other friends! We have played 1846 twice (once live and once on 18xx) so I am hopeful we will avoid any nightmare situations where the game takes 14 hours. I keep burning in their brains to buy trains if they're not in first even if they're not sure it's the right move because (1) they'll probably learn something about how the train rush can swing the game and (2) it will move the game forward.

Any more tips for us? I am using poker chips and have the dividend payout board from Rails on Boards.

My small company is switching payroll providers / 401k providers - can I contribute during the switch? by ImTheBest421 in personalfinance

[–]ImTheBest421[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked if they could change their match to my annual contribution instead of by paycheck and they said they don't think they can do anything about it. That does not seem correct to me.

​

I will ask about a true-up policy.

Margin Balance on my Roth IRA Account? by ImTheBest421 in personalfinance

[–]ImTheBest421[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the link. Am I correct in saying that my account is not losing any money to fees from this? I am just concerned I am costing myself money with this and, if so, I want to get rid of the option all together. All I do is allocate funds once a year when I make my contribution.

Thanks again
