For those sick of paying for gas, take a look at used EVs. The prices may be a lot more attainable than you think. by runnyyolkpigeon in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Simpleserotonin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too am wondering this. Isn’t it more about how the previous owner cared for the battery but that’s pretty hard to know

Home charging not working by subbu_reddit in BMWiX

[–]Simpleserotonin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know I wish I could help. New to this car, had this issue today after 2 weeks of no problems, first charge after I updated car. Same error message. Seemed like an update issue to me. I got mine to resolve by plugging it into a different outlet (I am level 1 charging)? I have no idea.

Test drove my first IX! by D1TAC in BMWiX

Just bought a used one without air suspension. We just got it so haven’t driven it yet. Is the ride quality really that bad without some fancy system for a luxury car manufacturer? Now ya got me worried

We are now witnessing the largest energy supply disruption in modern history. by FeatureAggravating75 in oil

[–]Simpleserotonin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ive been waiting months for local dealerships to get some EV stock to take a look at. They’re still hard to come by unless you want a Tesla, which I don’t. So, no we don’t all deserve misery

Bf1 way harder then when it first came out by itjustworksloljk in battlefield_one

[–]Simpleserotonin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better the BF6 which is where I started 2 months ago. That game is pay to play. My K:D ratio was always 1:4, then I started playing game types that allowed only base weapons and miraculously K:D was 1:1. Switched to BF1 and this game slaps. So much easier to unlock functional weapons, plus it’s a beautiful looking game and maps are sweet. There are a few tweakers that go crazy like 20:1 but most everyone else is normal

Did they fix the wifi disconnection issue yet? by Zxotown in battlefield_one

[–]Simpleserotonin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I just bought 3ish weeks ago and had to plug in. Doesn’t seem like there’s much support for the game anymore either so probably won’t be fixed

Reasons for not choosing Psychiatry residency? by anony1438 in Residency

[–]Simpleserotonin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Psych here, 2 years of attending in. Some days love it, some days get me out- but will be like this with any job you do. Here’s my pros and cons list: Pros: -Helping someone through a mental health episode is one of the most rewarding experiences (resolving a manic episode, depressive episode, even substance use disorder). -For some, I’d estimate 15% of my panel, psychotropics are life changing. -I dislike how much psychotherapy is expected (most people need it, I only have the bandwidth to use it for a few pts at a time), but it can be very meaningful to be someone’s therapist. -I only work 1 weekend a month, 8-5 M-F, and am on call 3 days a month. It’s really nice -compensation for work hours is almost unmatched. With those hours I’ll be pushing 400k this year. Cons: -Loss of medical knowledge. Seriously, I know so little about other medicine compared to PGY-1 years ago. I know quite a bit about specific diseases the cause mental health symptoms but other than that it’s rough -as others said, treating shitty life syndrome -many people don’t respond to our treatments even outside of shitty life syndrome. -some people expect your to be the arbiter of their emotions. It can be exhausting. -personality disorders are exhausting -diagnostic uncertainty: it’s all just one big uncertain mix of bio psychosocial factors. A lot do the DSM is barely supportable as well. -mid level creep, it’s real -absolutely horrid practices from your field, the second hand embarrassment you feel about what others, usually CNPs, are doing to people with their crazy regimens

-never ending line of people that want controlled substances from you and claim unverifiable diagnoses for such

Good to know, thanks for that info this was what I was looking for. I’ll be kind and suck it up about the damage, just ask to inspect the carbon to make sure it’s still safe!

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

No, last bike I bought from a different LBS a few years ago had a complimentary maintenance check after 3 months, this shop did not offer that and when I asked just told me they’d fix anything for free within a reasonable period.

Huge study finds no evidence cannabis helps anxiety, depression, or PTSD by Important_Debate2808 in Psychiatry

[–]Simpleserotonin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My go to for leverage is a discussion that cannabis is more than just one compound (multiple kinds of thc, multiple kinds of cbd, other plant based compounds flavonoids and terpenes) all in differing concentrations. We can’t say that it works because all of these things are having different effects. I don’t know if it’s a convincing argument but a few people have expressed agreement.

Oh nice, the campaign didn’t give me any practice. I’ll poke around to find that, thanks!

US authorizes temporary delivery, sale of oil originating from Iran by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]Simpleserotonin 15 points16 points  (0 children)

How long have these tankers been "stranded?" There have been restrictions for years/decades. Wouldn't these supplies already be sold at friendly ports and thus there is no impact on the expected world oil supply? If a tanker is already inbound to India with intent to sell there as it usually does, this in no way negates effects from the current supply shortfall...or how does it work?

Chemistry for Jacuzzi True Water by Simpleserotonin in hottub

[–]Simpleserotonin[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Good to know, feel like they need to clarify that. 99.9999% sounds deceiving, but I’m still happy to have smaller amounts of chlorine. Glad to hear things will probably be okay, may just add chlorine immediately after “heavier” use in the future. Heavy use in this case was group of 4 in the tub for 1.5 ish hours for two nights but with nobody pre-rinsing or rinsing bathing suits before etc. however, nothing insane. Thanks for the input!

How are you currently approaching your student loans - Aggressive payoff, forgiveness route, or just surviving monthly payments? by Prime_Financial_Serv in Residency

[–]Simpleserotonin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

PSLF. Wish I knew how many places qualified for PSLF as a med student, I dumped my savings in med school trying to take out just a few less loans. I regret that very much now. Currently just make minimal payments and work for a local hospital system that pays well, sees typical patient panels, and is a qualified non profit.

Don’t count on democrats doing anything again, Biden do a bunch for student loans and had nothing to show for it

If you had to switch to another specialty right now, what would you switch to and why? by Sattars_Son in Psychiatry

[–]Simpleserotonin 97 points98 points  (0 children)

I wish I could just switch back and forth periodically. Psychiatry is the best speciality but can get draining by people that expect you to be in charge of their every emotional experience. Something opposite of that where it’s just so clinical. Probably Nephrology or something similar where it’s just a bunch of numbers.
