  • This is not a good look for brave.

    Jump

  • I have been using Brave for the last year and I did like it as a mobile browser. But today I noticed that when I was searching about abortion and etopic pregnancy (fact checking a really dumb article) that all of a sudden their AI crap was throwing "no results available" errors. I checked some other left leaning topics and sure enough it no longer gives you AI results. So I immediately uninstalled that shit from my phone because fuck them.

  • To what extent is this accurate?

  • I'm one of those people that's switched skill sets and jobs multiple times. It's great for me because I love learning new things and using the new things I'm learning as it applies to the current job I'm doing. But there is a disadvantage to this in that recruiters don't know what the hell to do with you and bosses are always suspicious that you will jump ship at the drop of a hat. The ones who do take a chance and hire me have always been happy with my work though.

    Let's try it again: This post from #Mastodon can reach the whole #Fediverse, #Bluesky & more. That's #Sharkey, #Pixefeld (hence the pic), #Mbin, #Lemmy, #Friendica, #Hometown, #Akkoma... How far can

  • Can confirm, I can see the post on Bluesky side but can't see any comments other than Bluesky people for now.

  • High-speed passenger train collides with firetruck in Florida, injuring 15 people

    Jump

  • Yea I'm still trying to figure out how a fire truck can physically get around rail road arms. Like at that point why not just drive through them. They break pretty easily and would have been less expensive than destroying a whole fire truck.

  • Virginia zoo welcomes newborn pygmy hippopotamus as year ends

    Jump

  • Damn that zoo is right up the street from me. I haven't been in a few years so I had no idea they had pygmy hippos. They do have an emu herd that you can hand feed and a large aviary which is always awesome.

  • Ugh this just triggered memories of that scene from What Remains of Edith Finch (IYKYK).

  • These dames wanting inclusivity

    Jump

  • You know I've said "dude" all my life and I still use it all the time in regards to everyone. If I saw that someone was genuinely offended at being called dude I wouldn't use it again with that person, but now that I really think about it I don't think I've ever heard the term in a derogatory way. Like ever. For me it's always been a happy/inclusive word for addressing friends. My only worry for now is that saying it shows my age.

  • Give everybody everything.

  • I've experienced migraines of all severity levels since I was a teenager. I have a top 5 list of the worst migraines I've ever experienced. Number 3 was the one where my husband found me sitting at the kitchen table with a spoon in my hand completely out of it. When he asked me what I was doing I told him I was considering gouging my eye out. Number 2 was the three days I lost to absence seizures. I actually called out of work twice within a few hours because my autopilot is strong and my brain was gone. I almost lost my job for that one. Number one was the time literally crawled through the house on my belly for the phone and gave up in the living room before passing out. All I can remember of that one was laying there feeling my heart beat in my fucking eyelashes for what felt like ages. That was the one that made me go see a neurologist. I would never ever not believe someone's pain experience.

  • USA healthcare does not rule

  • It depends, did you purposely leave the rake out knowing full well that it could result in someone's death down the road?

  • Hospitals Gave Patients Meds During Childbirth, Then Reported Them For Positive Drug Tests

    Jump

  • Oh I absolutely agree. Gabapentin being one of those "scheduled" and monitored drug about broke me in the lab. Like no one is purposely getting high off of that shit. The Sacklers ruined pain management for everyone and I hope they all burn in hell.

  • Hospitals Gave Patients Meds During Childbirth, Then Reported Them For Positive Drug Tests

    Jump

  • Here we go again more stories about hospitals and CPS services using faulty and/or cheap means of testing to "comply" with regulations at the expense of patient. Why am I not at all surprised. I used to do this testing and when the process is done correctly it works. Here's how it's supposed to be done. First off you get a urine from Mom on admissions BEFORE giving any medication. Then you get the meconium and urine from baby after birth. You screen all three and confirm any positive screen with a more stringent confirmation test. Then you compare the three results to get a full picture of any drug usage that may be going on. Mom's urine will tell you if she's using within the last 3-5 days depending on the drug with the exception of THC which can stick around longer. Meconium gives you a window of drug use that might have occurred from the second trimester and on. It's not great to test it on its own because it's suspectable to faulty specimen collection. (I can't tell you how many times I got a cup of baby shit instead of real meconium. Real meconium looks like plastic, has the consistency of a mallomar, and usually has a mucus plug attached.)Then you test the baby's first urine output to determine if they have active drug in their system now. Use all three results together to interpret the big picture. At NO point do you ever give providers the screen results before confirmation. Hospitals and legal entities should be sued into oblivion for prosecuting innocent people over bad procedure and screening results. This shit irritates me to no end.

  • Republicans fume after President Joe Biden pardons his son Hunter

    Jump

  • Would this pardon allow Hunter full ability to leave the US and enter into other countries? Because I can totally see Biden doing this as a move to get all of his family out of harms way once Trump takes office and I don't blame them one bit. The Republicans have been very vocal about their vengeance and honestly if this was the reasoning behind the pardon it would be the first time since the election that we've seen the president taking the threat we all face seriously.

  • Belgium's sex workers get maternity leave and pensions under world-first law - BBC News

    Jump

  • I've seen crazy patients, crazy coworkers, and crazy coworker's relations trying to start shit causing the need for security to be called. Seriously hospitals are a concentrated cesspit of people experiencing high emotions/stress at the worst time in their lives. I remember the panic buttons being installed almost 2 decades ago after an incident where a coworker's partner showed up one night and beat the shit out of them in the middle of the lab.

    Jump

  • I used to work in a hospital laboratory. You bet your butt we have panic buttons that call security to our spot when needed. And notice I said when and not if, that's because they do get used once in a blue moon.
