Retunal… and I FINALLY just recently beat it
I’ve been playing it off and on for about two years now, and it was so satisfying to finally finish the main story

Stoping
Stope
Idk how to use that word well enough, but I’m pretty sure I would be happy not to be stoped by anything
Who’s to say you’re not (I won’t, at the least)?
perfectionist mindset - as one is writing,
I think an “M-Dash (perfectionist mindest— as one is writing,)” would be more appropriate than an “N-Dash” in your statement. No ‘nested’ parentheses needed (unless you’re looking to add non-essential (though insightful) info to your sentence); but the type of… “PAUSE” makes all the difference
You can use money from your 401k (stipulations vary) for a down payment on a first home, without the tax penalty (in America at least)
I can confirm that the “p” is not silent in tacypneic, unlike in pneumonia. It’s a weird one imo, but that is how it is
That’s really cool, and I appreciate the insight! I always liked Spanish (‘Latin American’ in my case) because you can pronounce the words as they are spelled. Doesn’t matter if you know what it means, but you can still pronounce it (for the most part)
I’ve always been told that Portuguese is like “Spanish and French had a baby”. Not sure how much truth there is to that, but a quick anecdote: My wife and I were in a cab with a native Portuguese speaker who knew a bit of English and a bit of Romantic languages. My wife knows a bit of French; I know a bit of Spanish… and between the three of us, we were able to speak to each other in a kinda “creole type” delivery. It was really cool to experience
Lastly, I have to ask… do you think “bradypneic” would be pronounced “BRAY-DIP” or “BRA-DIP” in English?
This happens to me a lot in the medical field. “Parenchymal” has been my most recent, and I have to think about it every time I hear it or try to say it
I read it in my head as PAIR-EN-KIME-AL, but it’s pronounced PA-RINKA-MAL… though how I read it does help me to spell it
Some words I still can’t pronounce, but I know how to “read”, such as “klebsiella aerogenes”
While we’re on the subject: “Tachypneic” is pronounced like “TA-KIP-NIK”, but I never hear anyone try and pronounce “Bradypneic”. One would assume that it’s pronounced like “BRA-DIP-NIK” (or maybe “BRAY-DIP-NIK”), but I can’t confirm. I think saying “bradypneic” intimidates people
I’ll never unsee this now lmao; thanks for the laugh (and future laughs, for every time he uses that same mannerism)
You’re right though, I only read the summary and then commented from there. Having now read the full article, it seems that it’s the “county” (that runs the hospital) listed in the lawsuit. Why not the hospital themselves? Or is that how the law works (as in, who is liable) when dealing with federal laws that were broken?
How does that not violate HIPPA? Do you have a source; out of curiosity?
There’s some situations where say, a person may be hospitalized after a car-accident and also has prior warrants out for them (the police were already involved with the wreck and now know the ‘wanted’ person has gone to a certain hospital). So the police will leave paperwork in the patient’s chart, asking for a “courtesy call” when the patient is about to be discharged, so that they can than be arrested. But it’s technically not “mandatory” (oh, I was busy and forgot to call the detective!), but the system definitely makes it feel mandatory
But being tipped off about a patients’ medical condition‽ So that they can be arrested afterward for said medical condition‽ I’m sorry, but how the actual fuck does that fly in any logical realm?
If true: the hospital should be held accountable for violation of HIPPA, which is a federal law. Fuck their state laws, that’s not how it works
ITT: even more division toward any semblance of unity. So instead… let’s just slow-walk ourselves into the same bullshit (that we’ve been doing), because the circus and bread done got us too fucked up; seeing only ‘left’ or ‘right’. Rather than how to help our brethren—we fight how to make our “best opinions” best
It’s always refreshing to crack open a cold one?
I mean… at the least, your mom tells me that several times a week
Edit: And at the most; everyday
Thank you for your service—someone had to say it
She leaned forward, turned off the monitor, then turned it back on. “I did this 10 times already, and its still not working”.
And this is why I couldn’t work in IT support; I just don’t have the patience for certain things. I always love teaching people new things, but most people don’t care when it comes to computers; they just want it to work effortlessly even when they’re the one screwing it up.
And especially working on-site! Oh my life, I bet there’s that same few people… just constantly failing to even try lmao
I hear ya, and appreciate the info because I didn’t know that. I was saying that I would do both before calling, and then again when they asked me
But this was back in like 2004-ish, so I’m not sure what was best practice back then. I would just try it all before calling lol… going so far as to shut down and unplug for a few seconds or more
Honestly, I would try the restart first (cause it was easier/more automated), and then a full shutdown and power-up. It’s been many years since I called any IT support though, but that was mu process. Cause I hated having to call for help lol
As someone who has been asked to restart the computer, even though I already did that before calling IT support… I internally sigh, but begrudgingly do it again just to appease their process. Because I assume plenty of people don’t do it and make y’alls life a tiny bit harder, when a restart would’ve fixed it
Also, how many are solved by making sure the power cable is not just plugged into the wall, but seated into the back of the computer as well?
Well, that’s my head-canon now
