  • Doctor who left patient during operation to have sex with nurse allowed to practise

  • Article says the patient was under general anesthesia and being monitored by the assistant anesthesiologist, the doctor was the main anesthesiologist, not the surgeon. So there wasn't really any risk.

  • There are clients with a "stop seeding" button that works prior to finishing the download. Just sayin'. Still seeds while it's active, but stops right after.

  • They died supporting things that killed them... Ironic.

  • They have always been more niche than mainstream, so for some people they are.

  • Can't reelect a convicted felon outside of the US, so no, he's going to prison. Potentially reduced to house arrest when he makes it to 85. If, that is.

  • Oh I wasn't aware they are passing tariffs against EVs, I was under the impression that they are having a pro-Chinese agenda.

  • What do Chinese EVs have to do with their health?

  • What was your last “impulse buy” and was it worth it?

  • There was some patch that sets the weight of everything to 0, so to can focus on the storyline.

  • This is how we get down to the water at our Airbnb in Siquijor, Philippines.

  • It's a raffle for gift cards of their member organisations. Also called an advertising deal. If said member is a food chain, what else are they going to advertise with? Kittens?

  • Major US Brands Sound Alarm Over Rising Anti-American Sentiment

  • Lays are American as well, sorry to burst your bubble.

  • This is what perseverance in politics a hobby without real world impact looks like.

  • Teen girls are being used as hitwomen in Sweden's organized crime wars: "Young kids are thirsty for blood"

    Jump

  • Those women are not Swedish, I'm afraid.

  • LLM tech support, how can I talk to a human?

    Jump

  • Yep, that's the best way to contact HSBC customer support. "Give me a fucking human you piece of shit" is my prompt of choice, and it works wonders.

  • Google's plan to restrict sideloading on Android has a potential escape hatch for users

  • Huh? Downloading an apk and clicking open with -> package installer is nothing but straightforward.

  • No thank you...

  • Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs

    Jump

  • Some Xiaomi TVs have root exploits, so you can manually disinfect the OS, but it's cumbersome to get done since you need to enter adb commands over the remote control to get there in the first place.

    Easier to just use an external device and the TV as a screen only. Personally I'm using the Nvidia Shield for 5+ years now and regret nothing.

  • Would you trust an open source software maintained by a developer who you disagree with politically (or otherwise don't like the developer)?

    Jump

  • I trust the Lemmy developers enough to use their platform hosted on external servers despite them being Marxist clowns, but I wouldn't self host without a thorough code review.

    And I'm seriously just waiting for a decent piefed app in order to ditch the platform altogether. So far voyager is the most functionally complete one, but doesn't look very appealing.
