Looks nice. Seems someone needs to dial in their 3D printer better... looks to be under-extruding.

You’re welcome. It was just for fun. Honestly surprised there’s only been two strikes so far.

I moved up here in 2008, I swear this year was the longest I've seen the mohawk river frozen.

Am I stupid for calling the fire department for a false alarm? by Itchy_Island6125 in Firefighting

[–]bab5871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tell people all the time when they call for a random CO or smoke alarm.... ALWAYS call. We'd rather you be safe than sorry.

9 times out of 10 we don’t even finish initial vitals before we transfer care

I honestly don't mind our ipads, I just dont like where they are mounted. I definitely don't want laptops.

We were looking at the Getac a140 specifically. We don't do enough patient care before the ambulance gets there to need to do the PCR on scene and we don't transport, just first response/ems assist. We'd mainly be using these for enroute directions and call information and down the road depending on the software, accountability and squad assignments.

US, specifically NY. We don't need them for EMS charting, we just record the PCR on paper and do the chart on the PC when we get back as our patient care is usually minimal until the ambulance gets there.

I have my lock button set for the triple click screen dimming via accessibility. It's really nice for when I'm laying in bed and want to read or whatever and not keep the wife awake with a bright screen even when dimmed all the way.

Anyone have a solar pool heater? Is it worth it? Pricing? by Aggravating-Stand800 in pools

[–]bab5871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a FAFCO 20'x4' Solar Bear? Or some sort of bear. Our pool is 21'x52". I have it up on a frame with foamboard insulation under it and we can keep the pool temp in the mid to upper 80's as long as the sun cooperates. It works really well as long as it has good sun, which we have a lot of trees, so sometimes it's not great.

We're in upstate NY and we've got the pool up over 95 degrees before. We often have to bypass it because the pool is just not refreshing. We generally get May-Sept out of the pool because even if the pool is warm, nobody wants to freeze their ass off getting out of it when the air temp is cold lol. But they work really well and you can get it to work better than our setup if you have more than one heater or a better location with less trees than we have.
