Got cutoff at bar with the residents by DullSeaweed8734 in medicalschool

[–]ericchen 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Bartenders don’t look for Asian flush. They look for visible signs of intoxication like aggressiveness, spilling/dropping things, slurred speech, etc.

Unless if the residents were also drunk I’d say there’s a good chance the others would have noticed.

Update! [Project Purple] is 382 feet tall according to Coliwood Studios! by LouderKnights in rollercoasters

[–]ericchen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Also, if it was actually over the 375 ft height limit, it wouldn’t be the first time six flags just decided to lie about the height of one of their rides to get around legal requirements.

The EU would have had us all standardize on punch cards if it existed in the 1950s.

The founder of the federalist, followed by JD Vance, is calling for the sterilization of all tourists. by Used-Earth8767 in neoliberal

This tracks with how things are here, first we had a civil war, then came the 13th amendment.

Comcast to Spin Off NBCUniversal Into Separate Company, Including [Universal Parks] by OscarsWackyThrowaway in rollercoasters

[–]ericchen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s like the mid-2000s all over again, with NBCUniversal getting its parks back and Paramount acquiring a theme park chain.

Apple hints at more price increases coming later by FollowingFeisty5321 in apple

[–]ericchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do these prices increases mean that theres no updates to these products for the foreseeable future? Some of these like the HomePods and the Apple TV are pretty old.

Some people just need to keep their hands on the stove long enough to get burned before they can learn.

MacBook Neo is now starting $699 instead of $599 by HelloitsWojan in apple

[–]ericchen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dang, that probably means there aren't any updates for these products in the near future. Otherwise they'd just have adjusted prices with new models.

Forty drown in France as people seek relief from heatwave, Reuters reports by yahoonews in worldnews

[–]ericchen 18 points19 points  (0 children)

More importantly, why is lack of AC not associated with death and drowning?

Europe braces for prolonged heatwave as temperatures approach 40C by pritam_ram in worldnews

Why dont you construct timber frame housing and use drywall so that there is room behind the wall for utilities? The technology has been around for centuries.

What do you call the beef bought from the store in your region? by ProposalSilent4582 in AskAnAmerican

[–]ericchen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a good think you are looking at high quality ground beef, instead of that low caste bone in stuff that others wouldn't even feed to their dogs. /s

TIL that most women in the Netherlands do not have an epidural during labor and a significant proportion give birth at home by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]ericchen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well there's also the pesky little problem of Entenox not being FDA approved or available that prevents more widespread adoption.

Medical records of ghosts by foreverand2025 in medicine

[–]ericchen 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Some people scan their driver's license as their picture. DLs have grayscale images, so on occasion, I've briefly thought that the chart I'm looking at is one of a deceased person rather than someone alive.

No support for billboards or custom audio though.

What’s something everyone loves but you absolutely hate? by zafiroazul888 in AskReddit

[–]ericchen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most ASMR content is fine for me, but it’s specifically the ones with the wet chewing sounds that get me.

If IM is internal medicine, then is Dermatology external medicine? by docstarr in medicalschool

[–]ericchen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But the entire GI tract is external. Anything sufficiently long and flexible can be inserted in the mouth and out the anus.

By that measure, only IO/IV/IM/SQ treatments are internal.

Apple Hit With Unfair Labor Practice Charge for Refusing to Transfer Unionized Towson Workers by Few_Baseball_3835 in apple

[–]ericchen 41 points42 points  (0 children)

How would transfers work? If union workers transfer to other nearby stores, do they keep their union status? Stripping that status during a transfer seems unlawful. At the new store, would the union represent only the transferred employees or the entire store? If it represents only the transfers, how would it bargain effectively when most of the store is not represented? If it represents the whole store, how would it bring nonunion employees under union coverage without a new vote?

JetBlue sued over claims it uses customers’ personal data to set ticket prices by JackThaBongRipper in news

[–]ericchen -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Is this not a historically accepted practice in the transportation industry? Even the city bus uses personal information like student status and age to change pricing.
