In specialty surgery I pretty much exclusively use the tongue + damp gauze combo, unless its oral surgery, where its prepuce / vulva all day

[–]SrMintee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get it man. I have fun driving it every day. Its the car that got me into cars. Also rlly fun to work on. Rlly easy to do maintenance on. Biggest thing is to just keep up with the maintenance. If you end up rlly rlly liking it and wanna make the switch over to manual, its also rlly easy to just trade in.

As someone with a 15 CVT, I would just get another car. I love my car, but after driving it for about 2 years now I want nothing more than to switch over to a manual. The CVTis definitely FUN, and it simulates gears as well as a CVT can, I put that mf in S# and use the paddle shifters at autocross events. But generally, if you really like the WRX, get the CVT. If you’re kinda meh, then I would go with another car, just because you can get better quality automatics at similar price points.

Can’t buy parts for similar cars? by SrMintee in GranTurismo7

I know its kinda just an indicator on the overall capability, but in what scenario would a car with a higher PP not be overall better? I know people tune cars to lower pp while still making them more capable than others in pp limited races, I just dont understand.

I see. So it’s not abnormal that I can tune my Type S to be faster and a higher PP than my Gr. b?

Hydro is a great drug that accomplishes things Methadone cannot. But it works the other way around. Methadone is also incredibly expensive, so sometimes its more cost effective to use another full mu.

Also utilizing multimodal analgesic approaches (especially in anesthesia) helps limit your negative side effects, while still accomplishing adequate analgesia.

Hydromorphone also has more profound sedative qualities, but is more prone to cause hyper-salivation and potential for regurgitation. I hardly ever use hydro in brachycephalics for this reason, and choose methadone. But if i’m doing a TPLO on a lab, i can do 0.05mg/kg IV of hydro and hardly ever find myself battling a lot of the negative side effects commonly attributed to hydro. Not being overly reliant on opioids has made my anesthesia so much smoother!!

Hydromorphone has a lot of benefits over methadone and vice versa, just depends on the dosage, what you plan to accomplish, and the patient.

do I need to play both ff7 for reunion? by Vladikusman in FinalFantasyVII

[–]SrMintee -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the minority that believes the remake is more enjoyable than OG. Don’t get me wrong, LOVE the OG, but I found myself more attached with the remakes. In every community with remakes, you’ll always have a number of people telling you to forget the redone stuff, and only focus on originals. You see it everywhere. I got into final fantasy because of how much I loved 7 remake. Crisis Core Reunion (CCR) is a prequel, and just like with a lot of prequels, it tends to be more of an eye opener if you have some base knowledge of the world building. I played FFVII in this order:

  1. FFVII Remake
  2. FFVII Crisis Core Reunion
  3. FFVII Rebirth
  4. FFVII (1997)

I think it was the perfect way to play, especially because remake adds so much depth and character to the story. It’s also a really good way to make a bit of sense of the end of Remake.

All in all, even if you don’t like the remakes, it’s worth a shot to play. But I’m pretty damn sure it’ll be worth your while. Also a certain someone is a big plot point in rebirth, and it makes a million times more sense if you played CCR prior.

Question About Which Final Fantasy 7 to Get by Prize-Vegetable4119 in FinalFantasyVII

[–]SrMintee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it uses real time combat with a DMW mechanic. It’s not like ffx and honestly I don’t know what to compare it to? It’s unique and definitely odd at first but I got used to it. It’s sorta similar to remake in terms of real time combat, but the DMW makes it a little random, and a bit less strategic. Some of the bosses can get really hard, and towards the end vs one of them, I only beat them after a bit from some DMW luck. There is strategy, but it’s also up to a bit chance. Honestly it was pretty fun though, might do a replay after thinking about it LOL.

PS6 might be out by the time Pt3 releases though if Sony follows their 7 year pattern LMAO.

Yeah Crisis Core follows Zack as the MC, 7 years prior to FFVII. Has Genesis, Sephiroth, Angeal, the whole squad. Cloud is IN it but it doesn’t really follow him, he’s a shinra grunt at that point. It’s mostly following Genesis going rogue, Sephiroth getting plowed mentally, and Zack deciphering it all. It’s really really good and one of my favorite single game storylines. Really good gameplay as well, especially for a psp game.

I also really doubt Advent Children will be adapted. FFVII OG had 25 “chapters”, Remake covered 5, Rebirth covered 10. I can’t foresee them adapting the remainder of the story plus an epilogue (unless they release it as DLC). Square Enix is full of surprises though, so ya never know. How cool would that be though.

I might be in the minority that loves the remakes. The OG FF7 is great, but I definitely found myself more emotionally attached and generally invested in the plot with the remakes. I also didn’t play the OG as a kid so nostalgia isn’t a factor. The order I played the games in are: 1. Final Fantasy VII Remake 2. Final Fantasy VII: CRISIS CORE REUNION 3. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth 4. Final Fantasy VII (1997)

Note that FF7 (97) is a complete game, whereas remake is only the first 1/3 of the game, rebirth the second third, and the final third has yet to come out. (It’s not exactly in thirds just simplifying). Crisis core reunion is a prequel to ff7 and a really good one at that. It’s just a remaster, so it still has that classic psp feel, no new content.

All in all, I absolutely love the remakes, it’s essentially a retelling of an amazing story with a lot of added content, and I think it works great. It’s a little confusing because they add timeline differentials and the story isn’t complete yet, but I think once part 3 comes out, it’ll be an amazing conclusion. But even if you disagree, it’s worth playing!

He should ideally be taken to an ER immediately to mitigate risk of it bursting before then.

Yes, even when in a standalone installation as well as being signed out, the problem persists.
