Well, just to be clear, that is meant for mechanical things..

Fluids,not so much. For obvious reasons.

It's a hell of a lot of work to actually dilate it.

Germany,rural area.

I call my GP. It might take a few tries to get through. Tell the receptionist what I've got, she is more or less trying to triage me. When it's urgent enough and I am calling early enough I can usually get there on the same day but have to wait longer at the office,if it's less serious it's mostly one or two days,but with less waiting time at the office. To check in you hand them your insurance card. Medication is prescribed electronically, so you just hand the card (or do it online) at the pharmacy. The GP visit is free, medication has a small, limited copay. You get fully paid for 6 weeks of sickness per diagnosis by your employer, reduced pay for up to 2 years by the health insurance.

If it's an illness requiring a specialist I can also try to book an appointment for that directly - but while that works well in larger cities it is totally impossible here, you simply won't get an appointment, not even in a year. The same happens when your GP refers you to a specialist,but there are mechanisms to give you a more urgent appointment - which works sometimes,sometimes they don't.

Same for me, I just knew it because I stumbled across it recently.

Well,tbf, AMD is at least a little bit better than Intel. They are even worse.

I fucking want proper, block based naming back

Literally what's done. Most dogs are chipped these days

And law enforcement can absolutely find out.

And most cities in my country require the dogs to have a tag with a human readable number (both for tax and identification purposes) as well when they are out in public.

It does so over multiple months. It is very averse to so spontaneously, as every OB/GYN might tell you. Always causes stressful situations in the OR.

(Beside...the cervix is more or less a one way device. That would surely make it rupture. )

Tbh, as someone who just built their own system I am a little bit angry that they didn't announce it a few months earlier - I would have waited a bit longer then to see their pricing.

The specs are solid for a "Proxmox NAS with ZFS and containers". For a regular NAS it's oversized,but we all know that. The trend towards integrated devices is there and I went down that way as well.(And if you can actually install a different OS of course)

Anyway: If they can deliver what they promise it might be one of the most interesting systems - it doesn't have many of the issues the Ugreens have (lack of ECC,etc.) and if they manage to deliver.... it's pushing into a space a lot of prosumers and small companies are that is currently only covered by self builds or spending much more money than necessary.

They list the AI 9 Hx Pro 370 which does support ECC.

Thailand? No. Beautiful country with nice people.

Thailand and specifically going to Pattaya? Very much so. Going to the Philippines and telling you "Pattaya isn't what it used to be" as a reason? Here officer this guy right there! That is direct code for either the guy wants younger sex slaves or is into shit that even in Thailand won't fly anymore.

Before current standards Cortison was much more common, often with theophylline. That would have been the recipe in the 80/90 in a lot of countries, with the first beta2 sympathomimetics coming up(Fenoterol). Before that (60-70ies)theophylline and Ephedrine were often given solo, sometimes with a barbiturate to counter the simulant, also prednisone started to gain traction.

Before that my sources didn't offer much,but Datura stramonium (Thornapple) was often used for ages - mostly smoked.

Nice article here,but it contains some errors: https://www.news-medical.net/health/Asthma-History.aspx

Air pollution was far worse everywhere besides the extremely rural areas since the middle ages in terms of the Asthma relevant particles and noxes. Combine that with a far worse indoor climate due to mold, animals, humidity, sooth, materials and that leads to a far higher prevalence for Asthma and respiratory illnesses. Which we basically know both from contemporary literature as well as bodies found.

Unless you worked mostly outside in a very very rural area your lungs were worse off 200 years ago than they are now.

Bitwarden is absolutely solid,yes.

Local server wise: If OP uses it in a local only setup behind a proper VPN implementation from my point of view the risk is acceptable. It's not that hard to secure a home server in a way that Vaultwarden is not at risk - and when you're so compromised that it is, then the attacker can easily use other vectors to gain the same data (RAt,keyloggers, etc.)

 

We describe the accidental transplantation of a malignant sarcoma from a patient to a surgeon. Using molecular methods, we showed that the sarcomas in the unrelated patient and surgeon were genetically identical.

A 32-year-old man underwent emergency surgery to remove a malignant fibrous histiocytoma from his abdomen and died shortly thereafter of postoperative complications. During the operation the 53-year-old surgeon injured the palm of his left hand while placing a drain. The lesion was immediately disinfected and dressed. Five months later, the surgeon consulted a hand specialist because of a hard, circumscribed, tumor-like swelling, 3.0 cm (1.2 in.) in diameter, in his left palm at the base of the middle finger, where he had been injured during the operation. An extensive examination, including laboratory tests, did not reveal any signs of immune deficiency. The tumor was completely excised. Histologic examination revealed that it was a malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Two years later, the surgeon's condition was good, and there was no evidence of recurrence or metastasis of the tumor. The pathologist who investigated both the patient's tumor and the surgeon's tumor raised the question whether the tumors were identical.

(Quote from the actual article from 1996)

 

After he notified the community that he is in hospice care a few weeks ago, his wife has now notified the community that TTeck, the founder of the Proxmox Helper Scripts, has sadly passed away.

The project has been transferred to the community earlier so the Proxmox Helper Scripts as TTeck's legacy will live on.

Only a few people have contributed so much to Open Source as his scripts were a gateway for a lot of people who then ventured into self hosting an then onwards into an IT career.
