I think that makes sense given (a) the number of medicare patients needing blood thinner meds and (b) the relative cost of blood thinner meds given their utilization levels. Since insulin is already covered by another part of the law, heart disease meds make sense for medicare patients I think.

What specifically didn't you like about The Martian? Hail Mary is weirder and in some ways, a more exciting story, but Weir's writing style is the same in both books and there is some similarity in the plots.

Heat radiation in a vacuum is also an important aspect of space travel. If heat could not radiate in a vacuum, we would not be able to dump excess heat from space craft and, at some point, the combination of electric devices operating within the pressure vessel and human heat output would eventually roast the people inside. We need heat to radiate outwards, and, from my understanding, it’s actually a somewhat difficult problem to solve in a vacuum. We take air and evaporative cooling for granted sometimes when on Earth and in space, where air cooling isn’t going to happen, you have to practice other methods of heat transfer.

I literally watched this video about 10 hours ago. He’s the Internet’s favorite Chicagoan.

You aren't the only one. Ive been on Fedora for a few years because I liked what Gnome was doing, I liked the updated Kernel, and I was annoyed by canonical. Now I'm not really sure where to go, as both Pop and Mint do not, in their current forms, work well with my hardware.

I can listen to the soundtrack from The Messenger. RainbowDragonEyes just absolutely knocked that one out of the park.

Yeah people do not trust this YSK. Your medical debt more than likely can and will be sent to collections. You may have certain FDCA or general consumer protection rights associated with that collection, including potential HIPAA violations, but that isn't going to stop your debt being sent to collections.

This doesn't get into the fact that many hospitals do not have to sell their medical debt to hire a collections agent to recover the debt for them. "Sent to collections" does not necessarily mean the debt is sold and you can still be pursued by debt collectors acting on behalf of the original creditor.

Do not trust random, and very wrong, Internet posters.

Only allow scripts or commands or tools that allow downloading or displaying or managing sexy pics of John Oliver. I.E. "This CLI will automatically download John Oliver pics from r/pics and covert them to ascii art."

I played a little MMO called Face of Mankind. It was hot garbage but I loved it. I played in a faction called the Law Enforcement Division (LED), the Solar System's police force. As part of that group, I joined Internal Affairs and helped run investigations into other LED members. I loved the process of applying rules to cases and investigating situations, applying fines or punishments as needed. The game really didn't empower much player agency in this regard, but we made it work. And it was an absolute blast.

Two memories stick out that made the game become mythical in my mind. First, was the Tequila Yuen Incident, in which a player changed from the "army" faction to the LED and was accused of murdering another player. As IAD, we had to investigate. During the investigation we determined that the army had faked the evidence to support their claim of murder by dressing another player to look like Yuen and faking a screenshot to imply Yuen admitted to the murder. After that, we uncovered an entire hidden organization within the army and led to a cop/army war.

Second, after a falling out with the LED leadership, I joined the underground "Brotherhood of Shadows" faction. As part of an anti-system government movement, the BoS joined forces with a number of other factions to form a counter government called the Nation of Shadows. As part of that government, we needed to draft establishing documents and I spent a few weeks working with others to draft a NoS constitution and binding agreements for military force commitments and representative government.

I cannot stress enough how little the developers gave us to support any of this nonsense. And yet, it happened regardless.

This might sound silly, but I've been looking for a way out for a while. A lot of what reddit has done has been gross, but it has also been mentally salvageable for the good bits. I think the API issue is what finally allowed me to get over the mental hurdle of wanting to stay on reddit.

Good riddance.
