9 failed attempts before the real doctor relocated it on first try. I only found out because I sneaked a look at my notes. WTF indeed…

Dislocated shoulder. It went over the front of the socket which is apparently quite rare, and the most painful. I was blacking out front the pain, a friend fainted, ambulance gave me laughing gas which was great. Hospital visit was not fun, they tried various kinds of morphine which didn’t seem to have much of an effect, then ended up giving me some sort of date rape ‘cooperative sedation’ meds and letting the student doctors take turns to fail at relocating my arm and fuck up the socket even more.
Yeah I’m lucky I guess that my particular condition is deemed not serious enough to warrant carrying medication. Just gotta live with it, thoroughly unpleasant when it happens though!
I should probably carry this, my heart likes to randomly decide 220bpm is a good idea every now and then.
You missed one-eyed Egyptian.
I almost exclusively play VR FPS these days. I only have time for short <1hr play sessions so my RPG days are on hold until life allows it.
GPs are not science, they are people. People make mistakes. They also have varying levels of education, mental health issues, personal problems, general human stuff.

Once had to explain to an old lady (in full-time employment in a job that requires use of a computer) that the mouse moves around on the desk surface. She was trying to move the cursor by putting the mouse on the screen.
Glad you enjoyed it! You must have very good coordination I think my high score is under 30!
I’ve called for an ambulance twice in the UK and both times they told me I should drive instead.
I’d heard so many good things about DE but the voice acting felt so jarring it really put me off. Words completely mispronounced (or maybe bad translation) in the intro and no sense of flow whatsoever.
Arguably anything man-made makes a view worse, but as far as man-made structures go they’re beautiful. And they give you a free wind gauge just by looking out the window. I’d rather see thousands of turbines on the horizon vs the glow of oil fields or plumes of smoke/steam.
I think they’re amazing. The chemistry of colored flame has fascinated me since I was young, and there’s nothing quite like being close to explosions. If I had more time and lived in the US I’d be a hobby pyrotechnician.
Yeah I turn AI off on my phone and prefer to shoot RAW. It’s still a legit feature tho.
It’s not marketing fluff though, it’s AI processing, as in recognising what you’re taking a photo of and auto-applying shooting presets/filters. Fairly common these days with new phones.

BLARP! I suppose it’s a physics game but I’m not aware of anything else quite like it. It’s incredibly simple, addictive, and could only really exist as a VR game.
Shout out to Superhot and Noita, already mentioned in this thread.
Lossless is the default for print output.
Volumetric video for sports is interesting because it offers VR users the option to ‘be there’, but the provider can also offer desktop/mobile users the option to control their own virtual camera. I can kinda see it taking off in a few years when more cheaper/lighter headsets with good passthrough arrive.
If you go down the panels route, DIY styrofoam sound diffuser panels can be a fun (and cheap) project if you’re into that kinda thing!
