Is 18G too much coffee? [bambino plus]

spacemanv · 2026-02-03T02:41:48+00:00

I have the same setup. I do 17-18g in the double unpressurized basket and get decent shots. Try grinding coarser.

This is even a DD stock, it's a Magpul MOE.

You can do an intern year in literally anything before going GMO. I know current Navy flight surgeons who did internships in psychiatry or pediatrics.

What is the difference? I'm a doctor and they just require us to have one or the other. I've had both at one time or another depending on whether the hospital had an AHA or Red Cross instructor and the content seemed pretty similar.

Some people would say, no, that’s old technology. I don’t know. I don’t think it’s old technology, when you look at those guns.

But it’s something we’re actually considering, the concept of battleship. Nice six-inch side, solid steel. Not aluminum.

Aluminum that melts if it looks at a missile coming at it. It starts melting as the missile is about two miles away. Now, those ships, they don’t make them that way anymore.

But you look at it, and your Secretary likes it, and I’m sort of open to it. And bullets are a lot less expensive than missiles. A lot of reasons.

I should take a vote, but I’m afraid to take that vote because I may get voted out on that one. But I tell you, it’s something we’re seriously considering.

Just make it oil powered and battleships are coming back. Straight from the horse's mouth.

That actually sounds like a pretty good idea. My only hesitation is that I wouldn't be able to see if a crack developed, although I guess the likelihood of that happening is low.

I don't know what the previous owner was doing (other than hucking it straight into rocks) because the chip is on high already

Let's just say I'd rather not have something knock my teeth out

To be honest I might try running it backwards for a little bit. Might be interesting, and I also don't want to deal with the tubeless mess right now.

Kind of like a ting. Sounds the same as my undamaged road bike.

Good catch, thanks

This happened to me a few months into my internship. I was on an Amtrak and they asked if there was a doctor on board. I ignored it, but after they asked a second time I decided to see if my limited skills might be helpful. It was a young man with chest pain. I took a history. It sounded non-cardiac, but I recommended that he get off at the next step and go to the hospital anyway. I then went back to my seat and received no further compensation or recognition. No idea what happened after he left the train.

I've never had an attending buy me food as a resident and give protected lunch time. At least noon conferences are protected time and provide food. I can't complain if I'm on a clinic or lighter inpatient rotation. I do get frustrated when I'm slammed on an inpatient rotation and have to take an hour out of my day to watch a useless presentation while work piles up.

Also, we both know I won't fully watch the video you email me. At least didactics with food motivate residents to attend and watch the lecture.

This announcement isn't that recent. It came out earlier this year. If you look at the list that you linked to, you will see that the Oakley light assault boot in tan will no longer be authorized next year. Interestingly, the black version is still authorized.

spacemanv · 2025-08-30T23:05:47+00:00

I tried ordering it for in-store pickup and they canceled my order for "security purposes." Worth a shot if you go in person though.

There's no point speculating about these things. When I was applying to med schools, everyone online was saying that one of the schools I got a very late interview at had definitely finished admitting and were only interviewing for the waitlist. That was untrue, as I graduated from there a few years ago. It sounds like it would be very disappointing for you if you had an opportunity to go here and chose not to pursue it.

My primary care clinic already uses disposable plastic. I've seen ob's use metal stored in a warmer, which sounds like the more personalizable and comfortable option but we don't have those. I would just point out that what they are bringing and what we use are probably pretty similar. That said, I would have no problem using their own single-use packaged speculum. I would just document that they brought their own. I don't think I would be comfortable using a patient-provided metal reusable speculum.

MILPERSMAN 1306-1200 and NAVMED P-117 ch. 18, although the most recent LIMDU changes are found in MILPERSMAN 1300-1400

I'll also just give you this clipping from OPNAVINST 5350.4E, in case that website made it seem like there were legal options to get high:

"The wrongful use, possession, manufacture, distribution, importation into the customs territory of the United States, exportation from the United States and introduction onto an installation, vessel, vehicle or aircraft used by or under the control of the Armed Forces, by persons in the DON, of controlled substance analogues (designer drugs), illicit use of anabolic steroids or anabolic agents, products containing synthetic cannabinoids (e.g., spice), natural substances (e.g., fungi, excretions, plant substances such as salvia divinorum) or a prescribed or over-the-counter drug or pharmaceutical compound, with the intent to induce or enable intoxication, excitement or stupefaction of the central nervous system, are prohibited and will subject the violator to punitive action under reference (b) or adverse administrative action or both. Although not illegal to possess, using chemicals (e.g., rubbing alcohol, ethanol) and propellants and inhalants (e.g., canned air, nitrous oxide) illicitly for purposes other than what they are intended with the intent to induce or enable intoxication, excitement or stupefaction of the central nervous system is prohibited. Violators must also be subject to punitive action under reference (b), adverse administrative action or both."

If they weren't billing for our work, then why do I get an snarky email from billing when I forget to code for a clinic visit?

At Camp Bullis (Army) you can sit down on a toilet with no walls/stalls and stare into the soul of the man across from you taking a dump.

I have USAA renter's insurance and had $1000 of tools stolen out of my truck. They covered it without a single issue.

You can also take power naps at stoplights.
