Seriously, what's the error rate on these things anyways. It's pretty outrageous these days.

Robert Liston performed the only operation with a 300% mortality rate; His patient, his assistant and a spectator died. I'm questioning if it was attempted though, it kinda seems like you'd have to try to kill all three...

Last year, University of Maryland surgeons made history by transplanting a gene-edited pig heart into a dying man who was out of other options. He survived only two months before the organ failed for reasons that aren't fully understood but that offer lessons for future attempts. Now, the Food and Drug Administration is considering whether to allow some small but rigorous studies of pig heart or kidney transplants in volunteer patients.

For years now Verizon has been locking bootloaders preventing custom ROMs from being used, most commonly the Google Pixel where if purchased from Google it's unlocked but from a carrier (Verizon especially) it's been labeled impossible. Over 3yrs later and the attempt is still a failure.

It's hard to remember all the technology that just didn't make it, it's kind of a great flash back.

An oil change was attempted, if it wasn't for the coolant reservoir being yellow (Which is, of course, the universal color for oil)...

Careful out there, read the manual and the labels.

The insurrection is over.
