My ex used to claim they could do X or Y task and I would make arrangements under the assumption they knew what they were talking about.

We’d get to the point they would need to utilise said skill, and they’d turn to me and say actually I thought I could wing it but I can’t, you’re going to have to do this now.

If I’d been told at the start that they didn’t know, I would have spent more time investigating the situation and upskilled myself in preparation. Instead, I’d ask “Do we have everything we need? Does this look good?”, get told it’s fine - and it wasn’t.

The lady in the article may well have deferred to his expertise when asking if she was adequately prepared, and trusted his judgement over a quick Dr Google search.

Dental stuff has been tested to ensure they’re biocompatible, but we still warn team members not to touch unset product even with gloved hands too much. Dentists who have a habit of wiping excess resin on the back of their gloved hands have developed contact dermatitis. Once fully cured, it is unreactive.

Fingernails are pretty inert, so it’s not as important. They’re still tested to ensure they’re not poisonous if ingested, as folks have a tendency to bite their nails.

Exposure time, vapours, biocompatibility, volume - all of these add up to make 3d resin printing pretty hazardous. Even dental 3d printing resins require this level of safe handling, until they’re fully cured.

Haha well if it’s what I’m thinking has happened, it’ll be fixable.

Temp fillings over root canal therapies generally have another layer underneath that’s actually sealing off the root canal filling. You’re doing the right things.

Hmm I had an older one (TCL nxtwear s), and I wouldn’t be doing graphic art on it, but it more than sufficed for watching shows, playing games, and some light browsing.

If I was buying today I’d probably look at the xreal X1, they’ve made some great strides in the tech.

The cable can be snagged on things so it’s nice to buy a model where it connects with magnets. Unfortunately for longer haired folks, your hair can get snagged in this area.

The actual experience is pretty decent, albeit slightly disappointing if you’ve grown accustomed to VR - but that is the price you pay for a much smaller form factor. Of course you can’t have a fully immersive screen, it’s “just” a monitor in front of you (and a fairly big one) - again for me, disappointment as I’m used to a 49" uw. 😅 For the use case given by the linked article, it would 100% perform exceptionally well.

It was really nice being able to lie down in bed or on the sofa, and watch whatever you wanted from your phone. It worked with my Nintendo Switch in a nitro+ which made for better posture whilst in handheld mode. 3d mode worked too.

I sold it because I didn’t use it as much as I thought I would, and the one I had had could do with some more improvements. I’m sure newer models will probably make it a more compelling answer now.

It’s not specifically “the” bar, but the original comment was saying they didn’t see how Tesla would even be considered, and I felt this feature is one reason why someone may still consider a Tesla.

For me, my dash cameras have come in handy when my vehicle was running, but the hardwire mode has not been able to handle what I wanted it to. I want my next vehicle (whenever that may be) to be an improvement over what I already have. I have personally had my vehicles damaged more than once whilst it was parked, and I have always parked well. Sentry mode would have been very bloody useful to have the responsible parties pay up. Instead, I was left with a damaged car, which was notably rather heartbreaking when one incident occurred within the first month of ownership.

EDIT: My motorcycle was hit and if I hadn’t had known, I wouldn’t have been aware enough to take it to the shop to be inspected in case any of the internals had been damaged. Sometimes damage can be internal and without an alert, you would be putting yourself in danger.

I’ve had a Ford (mid range SUV) and a Toyota (base model sedan) which were both damaged whilst parked, and nobody left a note. Lots of people posting in the community groups about carpark damage and no notes being left, and no luck with local cameras.

So yes, it is needed.

I am unaware of any other EV that has sentry mode on the cameras like that on the Tesla. Would absolutely love to be proven wrong.

AFAIK Kia has a Korean only release EV6 that had it, but none of the other options utilise the whole suite of cameras to record.

They can ban you from using them as a business, which is often what these fines are about.

A lot of clinics have failed to attend fees which are pretty much kept not to ever collect, but prevent that patient ever booking again.

On the whole, they’re used to East Asian health professionals, and some even deliberately seek East Asian doctors.

They do NOT like South East Asian HCWs, but will tolerate it. There are regular requests in community groups for an ‘Australian’ doctor, and whilst there is plenty of pushback from commenters about what makes a doctor Australian, they tend to say they have issues with the accent (not overly unwarranted, I have an Australian accent but can speak fast, and this is probably the most common feedback I get).

There are a bigoted few who will actually refuse to see Aboriginal clinicians.

Oh that’s cheeky. China has control of the current Panchen Lama, don’t they?

Once female speaking time reaches 30% or more, males believe that the females are dominating the speaking time.

Female encroachment on what has traditionally been considered male spaces is not taken well. Female empowerment is considered taking from deserving males.

Essentially the general male population don’t like females, and only tolerate them as a subservient subclass who should be seen and not heard.

EDIT: This should probably annoy you a little too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mt2qCjL6-n4

And it may also explain why people complain that there should only ever be one female character - it minimises the chances of males having to watch two females interact, because that would be excluding the male experience and they couldn’t possibly relate to two females interacting.

EDIT2: comments in that video do claim there are more scenes… whether or not that really adds much is up to you.

Last I heard 2035 was already going to be pretty crap, 2050 was unlivable.

Not just that but I’ve seen posts mocking the captain for being a lesbian, and wokeness for why the boat crashed.

Antibiotics and other prescription medications are more often prescribed to older folks, so the increase should be seen in those populations, not primarily more in younger populations. It is unlikely that antibiotics or other similar medical interventions are responsible for the phenomenon seen in the op article.

Also, as a prescriber, I do warn my patients of the dangers of taking antibiotics willy nilly. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m in healthcare, and often work with children. It doesn’t matter if they do or don’t understand something, they don’t have the emotional regulation to continue with something uncomfortable.

I don’t blame parents wanting to increase the sleepiness of a child prior to something like a long plane trip.

8+ is the age I see the majority of children being able to grin and bear it, and to be reasoned with.

Maybe from the other side?

If you use the word fortnight, it’s likely you aren’t from North America.

Maybe the article was made up with an LLM?
