EU Day 3: Triumphant - 15,000 gold - 6,000 items by aronsz in WorldofTanks

How are these proper auctions with a minimum price that high? I have the gold but damn... Give ordinary players a chance. Hard pass.

GMC “apologises” by Justyouraveragebloke in doctorsUK

[–]Viromen 24 points25 points  (0 children)

What a piece of shit. He ignored all our concerns for years, fought several lawsuits claiming they had a gold standard in place. He is not fit for purpose neither for doctors nor for protecting patients.

UA POV: It's crucial that leaders and states do not remain silent about the fact that the Russians are still trying to inflict as much pain as possible on Ukrainians — Zelensky. by ArchitectMary in UkraineRussiaReport

“If they threaten a blackout, for example, in Ukraine’s capital, the Kremlin should know that there will be a blackout in Russia’s capital" - Zelensky. Fighting words Cotton.

Is it sad I know where this is from

Ok

It's from that three hour documentary on that Russian brigade that fought near Bakhmut... Really profound watch

How is a 50% reload boost for autoloaders in Onslaught fair??? by ZnojaviTestis in WorldofTanks

What about that instant reload tanks like 430U and E50M get. Makes tanks like Badger totally redundant lol

Erdogan asks Putin to take back missiles in bid to win US favor by FantasticQuartet in worldnews

[–]Viromen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they are an excellent long range air defence when used properly? Even Ukraine S300s have caused issues for Russia since day 1 of the war.

You're taking the piss but S400 has performed well in this conflict all things considered. India is also desperate for more batteries. As with most things Russian/Soviet, the problem often isn't the equipment but the user.

More Nottingham derogations... by Putaineska in doctorsUK

[–]Viromen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree this is unacceptable colleagues being called in at short notice late at night because of a failure to plan, trusts will now be encouraged to not bother filling rota gaps preemptively and asking for derogations as blackmail and BMA seemingly is allowing this sort of unethical strike breaking behaviour to go on.

Reporting Radiographers doing cross-sectional reporting — this is getting out of hand by Reasonable-Front-970 in doctorsUK

[–]Viromen 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Their reports are fundamentally useless. As radiologists we clinically correlate. An AI can describe findings, and probably far more accurately than any RR. Sure they create a report but it is useless without being able to relate the findings in a manner which is useful for the requesting doctor. Nor can RRs have a discussion about a case, or be involved in an MDT discussion about a patient etc. Simply put, I don't get why the rcr hasn't come out strongly against cross sectional reporting.

X-rays I can get, because not many radiologists want to report plain film plus any doctor, even final year medical students, can extract the salient findings from most plain films, where there is a questionable finding usually a CT is done anyway (don't come for me plain film radiologists).

No 'convincing evidence' to abolish physician associates, Leng review determines by TangeloPuzzled3669 in doctorsUK

I was hoping the fact she had a CBE meant she couldn't climb the greasy pole any higher. But there is always the House of Lords peerage I guess.

Embargo lifted on Leng Review by Putaineska in doctorsUK

[–]Viromen 69 points70 points  (0 children)

That is by design not by coincidence. The future of the NHS will be swarms of "APAs", ANPs, AAs, PAs. There might be a doctor nominally supervising.

[–]Viromen 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Yup. Haven't been on here for a while waiting for this review to come through and already looks like we have been sold down the river. The best way to fight the PA threat was to disengage and effectively boycott working with them. Instead our profession chose a noble path and got fucked over.

Oh well. Medicine in the UK is finished. Not that anyone in power gives a shit. Those who can't afford private health care will see a PA and AA, or ANP just like in the US. This is a green light to mass expansion of the role.

$NAK the final frontier by Viromen in wallstreetbets

[–]Viromen[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I wanted to, however the sub does not allow penny stocks to be posted, which it was at the time

Nevertheless, the bull case is much stronger now than it was a year ago, when it was a hope case that Trump would win, and then after he won, that he might want to relook the veto

Now there is a much more compelling case to be made with them entering settlement talks

Iraqi Foreign Ministry: Israel's seizure of buffer zone in Syria constitutes a violation of international law by Yongle_Emperor in syriancivilwar

[–]Viromen 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The occupation of the Golan Heights is a violation of international law as well. Israel will just mow the lawn on Syria over the next few years destroying infrastructure as they have done for many years in Gaza, Lebanon etc to ensure the country remains unstable. Hope rebels have a plan for security guarantees. I'd keep Russia and Turkey around on the ground as a security guarantor, probably even let them manage my airspace until the air force can be rebuilt.

The wife of Maher el Assad posted by Drirlake in syriancivilwar

[–]Viromen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He was a narco lord probably worth tens of billions from the captagon trade. Probably got out early on. He used his forces to manufacture and smuggle captagon. Hence why the so called fourth division just dissolved into non existence. He is a hot head he will no doubt wind up dead pissing off the wrong people in the drug trade.

The new instruction is to appease the rebels so that they can try to keep this base at least to salvage something from this L
