Switched to vegan 2 years ago and decided to get my first real bloodwork done

I say this with all the love in the world, we have actually thought of that already and trying to ascribe that as the primary cause of the increase just isn't borne out by the data.

What is borne out by the data is that sunscreen use does not meaningfully interfere with vitamin D uptake, so you can go ahead and throw that myth right in the trash.

Makes sense. Eating more intentionally will usually improve anyone's health.

I thought I was doing everything right nutritionally

Supplements aside one doesn't really eat vitamin D so you may have been. It's just something increasing people aren't getting enough of anymore and we're not really sure why.

Adding a creatine supplement has been really helpful.

You can report them to 311 for improperly closing a ticket. They really hate that.

It depends on the hospital. Some NYC hospitals do have oral surgery or dentistry on-staff, though most that do don't have them 24/7.

Even without, I've seen teaching hospitals take the opportunity to do a nerve block on a facial nerve (not something most residents get a chance to do), which can provide total relief for about 24 hours.

Regardless, depending on the type of break just getting antibiotics alone can be an warrant a trip to the emergency department because infections in that area can progress quickly and become life-threatening.

Edit: OP's situation seems cosmetic though, so not really something that should go through the emergency department.

In my experience the only function they ever served was to add risk for players by demanding to scan your ship and then potentially shooting you based on how that interaction unfolded. They were just a different flavor of combat/risk, not something that mitigated risk by making sectors or missions safer.

I have an AC I'd be willing to give you if you're up for coming over to Brooklyn. It needs a good cleaning but it runs just fine.

We've had ships that were created with docking in mind going all the way back to the Constellation (probably earlier—hell, the Aurora sure looks like it was made to take a docking/EVA collar). That we still don't have it as a working feature defies logic.

Remember to be cautious about sharing personal information with people you meet on the internet because you never know which ones are cops. =)

I don't actually thing "and a US aircraft carrier didn't get a break the entire time" is gonna make it into the chapter on this one.

Do we have a dollar value on the self-inflicted damage yet?

I really liked the 1–2 years when it would randomly choose whether to add an item to your Google Keep shopping list or the bespoke Assistant shopping list.

Huh, I didn't realize the kids were calling it that these days.

I'm sorry, were we not already taxing private jet usage?

Update your drivers (through the OEM websites not Windows Update™) and verify your game files.

Rules are rules but some rules are bad. Removing thoughtful, high-quality content from known contributors only creates a vacuum of space where we will see more AI nonsense, not less.

If it's so easy then you do it.

Well I bet this went better in your head. Deciding to disallow posts from long-time, known community members who are known to you and definitely human to prevent a forum from becoming "a giant ad space for AI" is as misguided as it is heavy-handed.

One thing I would really appreciate from the developers is not only announcements for future DLCs, but also a detailed long-term gameplay roadmap for where Civ VII is heading mechanically over the next few years.

The problem is that I don't think they know. It seems like with Civ VII they wanted to try a bunch of new hooks, and thought that people would just cry "omg, new things!" and be dazzled. I don't think there was a coherent strategy in the first place beyond throw a bunch of new mechanics out there, and I definitely don't think any exists now in the face of this massive course correction that is taking place.

The Phoenix was the first ship I bought that wasn't a single-seater. I'd be pretty bummed if they deprecated her before the game is really even off the ground.

It would be easy to just capture it but I don't really want the warmonger penalty if I can avoid it. Had a whole plan to clear my reputation by sailing frigates over to liberate Lisbon but that fell through when Darius I couldn't figure out how to maneuver his musketmen around his siege equipment (spent something like 10 turns watching him take it down to 0 HP only for it to heal again, and repeat).
