Honesty at this point I'm planning to move to a country with sane healthcare sooner rather than later.

I don't think I'm going to change your mind since you're fairly convinced of the ideological / purity standpoints. But folks have tried that stuff for years. It didn't scale, or end up maintainable. So they inven

Meh, tailwind is the most maintainable and easy to understand way of doing style I've experienced (from solo to massive teams). Been doing this for around 13 years, so plenty of time to try a lot of flavors of styling. I'm so gla

That font is so hard for me to read, personally. Had to swap it in the browser tools.

Imagining it won't happen to you is simply the human condition, especially younger in life. I can't blame folks.

Neither enables armed rebellion, especially not Republicans (they'd be quick to squash that with maximum force). I'm not sure where the Democrat party is openly opposing the parent comment's interest of financial success. Th

I mean, based on the past presidential deficits / spending patterns, there doesn't appear to be such a thing as a fiscal conservative. If you're fiscally conscious, the best thing is to vote democrat, based on facts / hi

Yep, you got to look at what folks do, not what they say. The Republican actions tend to be raise taxes on the middle / lower class, lower taxes for the rich.

Don't forget with multiple folks in a household that number is even higher. Yikes.

As a normal individual, I doubt I could afford a lawyer that would be a match for them.

When was the last time you went? Nearly everything, even non-specialist, are booked out a month or more.

Genuine thanks, I'll look into scheduling this!

I do honestly wonder what the next step is for folks like me who are affected by this. Does Philips pay my future medical bills if I get sick? Or do I just get a "we're sorry"?

Jesus, wondering if I need to get checked out. I used one of these models for over 5 years :(

I'll keep it short on why folks are probably downvoting you. I'm super fit. Probably one of the worst sleep apnea scores. Others like me, this advice will just mislead them (possibly kill them, as sleep apnea does kill). But for

The resmed auto I have now is my favorite so far. Unfortunately did look up my old machine and it was one of the philips recalled ones, so that's not great to hear. I think I used it for roughly 6 years. I did the deviated septum sur

As someone with apnea due to my anatomy (and AHI of 79 at that), I'm jealous. When I first got diagnosed more than 10 years ago the doctor thought I was obese seeing that. Nope, just bad luck. I'm fit, would hate to see how bad

This is a management issue though. If they aren't willing to address folks who aren't working (blatantly in your words) when remote, they won't when in office. It's just now everyone gets collectively punished.

Honestly pretty smart. Sit around, collect paycheck, maybe work on resume / side hustles. And of course, marvel when you still get high performance marks.

It mentions brain proteins contaminating it, makes me think of prions.

I think given the existence of debtor prisons that becomes arguable. And some do utilize the laws and systems in our country to increase the amount of slaves though. This is likely just the tip of the iceberg: https://en.wikipedi

I mean, we do have for profit prisons and use our immense prison population as slaves.

Reminds me of the mindset of the species in Pandora's Star by Peter F. Hamilton. They basically accepted that they would die fast due to toxins / radiation / disasters for "progress" / "efficiency",

What do you think capitalism is? Define it, and I think you'll see our foundational doctrine is designed to enshrine and protect the ideas of capitalism. Much more talented and studied folks than I have explored this in depth, which y

The 2 muffins for 4 was the only time I ever went to them. I don't really understand the folks still visiting Maccas these days.

Yes, the reality is we've been in a starve the beast situation for decades in the US. It's a spiral as the bad actors get to say "See, we have X but X doesn't work" leaving out the conditions they've forced on

Yeah, I'd be more willing to say it's the collapse of community oriented society in a lot of places along with a general feeling of economic despair (you'll own nothing and be happy).
