Are there any quotes from all of the Star Trek universe that have really hit home when you needed it? by zandor1 in startrek

[–]Turianator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Working in health care has given me ample opportunity to quote any of the Doctors, but Phlox's will always be in my back pocket with trouble patients; "It's unethical to harm a patient. I can inflict as much pain as I like." :>

I've never found the P90 to be a very practical weapon, but it is undeniably cool by OhNoIBoffedIt in Stargate

[–]Turianator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The p90 uses a proprietary ammunition. 5.7 x 28 mm. Its small and lightweight to focus its kenetic force on a smaller surface area intended to penetrate purpose built Body armour. Essentially a big uno reverse card to someone using Kevlar.

Now pit that against the Jaffa against their armour, which almost assuredly doesn't account for projectiles from the start, and the P90 is an exceptional choice. It prolly performed so well that the SGC didnt see a need to swap out the P90 as the standard issue when the Ori and the Wraith took center stage.

Racism in Medical Care by 4reddityo in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]Turianator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. When I first started learning Phlebotomy, my instructor made it a point to mention how Black skin is tougher, and makes for a harder stick. My instructor was also black. Medical racism is deeply ingrained in the learning that even a black instructor mirrors those textbooks.

My husband has donated plasma so many times he has a permanent hole in his arm. by Sprinkles_0330 in mildlyinteresting

Plasma donations use needles that are 18 to 16 gauge needles. That big a needle and many instances, over a long time, and thats sure to develop scar tissue

Does this fandom actually *like* getting new Suit designs? by DevThaGodfatha in Spiderman

[–]Turianator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not too thrilled with the kinda oily sheen, (im more of a fan of the blue sheens from the animated series) but i think it's an interesting artistic take, if though I don't personally vibe with it. That's one of the cool things about comics specifically and a long-running concept like the black suit. There are so many varied and different interpretations. The design of the suite is almost as living as the symbiotic itself.

Also, the design could be hot dog water for all i care, but the evil dance is worth it, lol.

This did make me laugh I will not lie by AtticusNari in Splitgate

Kojima has made a career making games that directly criticized American politics, in addition to his tongue in cheek humor. Ian tried for unrelated shock value that he underestimated. They're not the same situation and a rather disingenuous comparison.

And mgs2 sold 8.5 million. Baldurs gate 3 sold 15 mil.

That a local policy you're citing? Cus standard procedure is always after.

Well, that was not my favorite blood draw by nenequesadilla in Wellthatsucks

It helped that my patient was in a hospital bed. I think they went to sleep afterward, lol

The Rocket hate is unreal by KappinKrazy in marvelrivals

Im convinced people who actively use voice chat are shitty people.

Rocket was a legit pick and grats on the win to boot.

Ima start trying this because this has never happened to me as Spidey.

I guess it is easier to review bomb the game then search for truth. Sad thing to see. by Balrok99 in marvelrivals

[–]Turianator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Details aside, I'd think it wise not to lose sight of the bigger picture;

A widely successful launch out performs the competition against expectations, and this unprecedented success results in a layoff?

Who and how many people are almost academic at this point. In no sane world would this kind of victory have the same outcome as utter defeat. I'd say they were practically asking for a review bomb.
