From an EM perspective, patients are often stupid as fuck and wouldn't know what was good for them if you beat them over the head with it. Sometimes their stupidity brings acute death if they leave my ward, and I don't want that on my conscience, not to mention legal exposure. If I thought a patient was wanting to leave for some stupid reason and life and limb is on the line I would absolutely do everything short of directly lying to a patient to keep them under care until they are stabilized. Full stop. It is my ethical and legal obligation to treat patients, even if they are too ignorant or obtuse to understand that is the reason any of us are there. Call it mind games, manipulation, whatever; I do not want a sick patient leaving until I am sure that they won't die from what they came to me with or be back within 24h for the same thing, and I will do whatever I can to keep a patient's stupid ideas from getting them killed.

Protocol. Come into the hospital with SI or HI for example, your freedom gets temporarily revoked and you get to stay in the padded room with a sitter until a psych assessor deems you without risk of killing yourself or others. There are very few phrases that will land you in that position.

You have to pay for electricity and a computer to play the games right, then I guess no games are free if you take it to its logical conclusion.

There are tiers of being free, this game just happens to be on a less-free tier than you think is appropriate for "free". Someone else may argue a game is not free unless it can be downloaded openly on the internet without an account. Your idea of free is no more or less valid than mine

Noone said it was. The GAME is free for members of Amazon prime

If you're on android I can highly recommend Eternity. Open source and a fork of Infinity for Reddit; which is still going as a paid service post Reddit API débâcle. I loved Infinity prior to Reddit being a bitch and Eternity is just as great

having to do a firmware update on my soldering iron

You don't. It works perfectly fine OOTB. Can't speak for the Pinecil v2 with Bluetooth and the companion app but I have v1 and the software been stable and bug-free enough I've never even given a thought to updating the firmware on it

Me. $350 off and $100 worth of storage upgrades on a Pixel 9 pro was worth it for me. Phones now are expensive as fuck but getting a ~40% discount on a brand new product made it easier to accept.

Oneplus 7 Pro on release. Amazing phone, great value. Still holds up years later

Thanks for the info! Just struggling to find a suitable tempered glass protector now since the pixel 9s moved to the ultrasonic style fingerprint reader.

Pixel 9? If so, what screen protector did you go with?

Just got one and the screen protector I bought doesn't work with the new style fingerprint sensor, so looking for a known-working brand
