  Patients were arrested in 81 of those cases for missing court dates, the records show. In an additional 13 lawsuits, Marshall’s lawyers sought warrants but it is unclear whether an arrest occurred.

  They also garnished patients’ paychecks and bank accounts. They routinely charged patients an 18% annual interest rate.

  The unpaid bills ranged from several thousand dollars to as little as $101. About half the lawsuits were filed under Marshall’s name and the rest by Heartland Regional OBGYN, the medical practice he solely owned from 1998 to 2012 and then co-owned with another doctor from 2013 to 2019.

  Debtors prison?

  What was the crime? I wanted to read the article, but it requires a login.

  Added to wish list.

  RE: work;

  I suspect these companies are going to want to re-hire some percentage of the workforce they’ve laid off.

  Is there a company / group out there that connects developers to companies that have an emergency need for them?

  Have you ever heard the question: “Do you know who I am?!?”

  Guess what? It works a lot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas remasters are officially in the works⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Will these effectively be “new games”? In other words, a separate purchase (on Steam, for instance) from the original.

  There are two upcoming games with the title “Abaddon” in the store. Both are horror fps.

  Were you aware of this?

  I put the one that looks like yours on my wish list.

  Well THERE’S an interesting idea!

  BANG! “I did it again, I hate myself. Poor guy was minding his own business and hadn’t done anything to me.”

  New Vegas is in my library. I look forward to playing it. I’m also interested in getting the first two as well.

  FO3 was my first fallout experience, and I loved it. Currently playing 4, and it’s not as engaging. Some elements are cool (building), but the stories seem flat.

  Can you expand on the idea that it’s not a good fallout game? What does that mean? What makes a good fallout game.

  Thanks!

  Clarify the question. Make sure I heard it correctly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What android phones do you recommend and why?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨years⁩ ago⁩:

  I was (am?) in the same dilemma. Loved my 7 pro, but someone dropped it, cracked the screen, and things started going downhill (hardware wise) from there.

  As a replacement I got an 8t (still OnePlus). It’s nice, but I miss the 7 pro.

  OnePlus is no longer an enthusiast brand, and I think the Pixel is the only other one currently. Maybe the Nothing phone? That’s kind of early adopter territory still, I think.

  Sorry I’m not more helpful. I prefer phones with unlocked bootloaders that allow for alternate firmware to be installed.
