First time we had to worry about microscopic black holes. Now interdimensional biological organisms which somehow can survive in our nitrogen based atmosphere and climate temperature envelope.

It deters new customers. If a particular brand of car has a target painted on it. Either for ridicule, vandalism or destruction. Who is going to want a car like that? Besides, in terms of quality Tesla has been long surpassed by the incumbents anyway.

This. And some people just want to post in front of a crowd. So far I like Lemmy because there’s more conversation going on. And less “Look at me!” posts.

to learn a lot of things systematically: medicines (not the brand names, but the active components, because doctors where I work use components extensively)

It seems OP is aware of this.

“after a bystander broke a window with a tree branch” Ah yes, the bulletproof windows that could double as submergible windows for an unspecified amount of time at an unspecified depth.

When they stretch harder they just blame the war/immigrants/politics/weather. When there’s some slack it’s because of the company’s tireless work at improving everyone’s life. Until it’s time to stretch again.

Why more? Why add an extra layers, more complexity? Why not just ban deposits? The rental contract already covers damages caused by tenants. And it’s not like you pay a €2000 deposit, cause €10.000 worth of damage and not have to pay the additional €8000.

Maybe in the past, with cash payments and paper records. Deposits added a layer or security. But does that still hold true today? I’m sure landlords will disagree.

If the landlord believes the tenant left the property in a damaged state, they can enforce the contract. Upside is that it’s not worth it to sue for trivial shit like nail holes or greasy stove vacuums. Now the tenants are always on the backfoot, spending money to get their own money back.

Also, the earth will never be in the same place twice. So it’s not even like you can only jump increments of a solar year.

You’re not making a lot of sense. So I see no point in talking any further.

after some years plenty believed it had to do with WMD’s

No, it was very clear it was to get Iraq out of Kuwait after it invaded. Iraq wanted to gain more regional dominance and add Kuwait’s oil reserves to it’s own economy after the costly Iran-Iraq war.

you Canadians

Also not Canadian, the world is a big place

Keanu Reeve’s voice acting is pretty sub-par most of the time. And even in Phantom Liberty, especially in the beginning Female V (played by Cherami Leigh) sounded a bit off, as if she needed to find V’s voice again after how much time was in between the main game and the DLC. But other than that I have to agree, top-notch work. Made in Poland ;)

I think you need to brush up on your history. And who is “you”? I’m not even American my friend.

My on-line persona, my work persona and home persona are 3 different people. I totally understand OP

And then Trump will rescind the ADA and disability benefits so those unable to (fully) work will become homeless and destitute and die from exposure or police brutality.

Hasn’t won any wars with unlimited objectives. Where there is no clear end goal, because regime change and installing a friendly government isn’t really clear and actionable.

The first Gulf War had limited objectives, was a massive success and took only 6 months.

Meh, recently a korean team was in the news for curing cancer. Reality is of course that they simulated a single protein in a precursor pathway… etc… which could possibly contribute into a future concept for a treatment against certain types of cancer.

For me the voice is what matters. Male Commander Shepard, Female V.

Knowing medical affixes and suffixes will go a long way. Even medications will have some naming conventions. https://www.mometrix.com/academy/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Drug-Suffixes-Cheat-Sheet-Sorted-by-Drug-Type.pdf

Focusing on anatomy and physiology will help you understand not just what things are, but why they work. Technically you can use a stethoscope on someone’s neck to diagnose the cause of a sudden blind eye, but only if you understand the branches of the coratid artery.

“I don’t want to take any drugs to study better” Why is this even a thought? Why read for 3 hours after your shift? If you want to expand your nursing skills start there. Look into topics that you deal with everyday. Learn more about the commonly prescribed medications. Don’t worry about the more uncommon ones for now. Build on the stuff you already know, that will make learning easier, more interesting and more applicable in practice. Leave the rote memorization to overworked residents.

Look up nursing groups on-line or in your area, see what they have to say. Probly more skilled advice and experience to let you know what to focus on and what not.

I’m lucky enough to work in an academic care setting where initiative is appreciated, but your mileage may vary.

Good enough to contact one’s consumer organizations or government watchdogs.
