- Comment on Are doctor's of presidents still bound by HIPPA even if they see a major decline that would massively effect the country? Or can they tell the truth? And can they lie if under pressure from one? 1 day ago:
Doctor’s are required to protect the patient and those around them, even if it means protecting them from themselves.
That doesn’t mean that a doctor couldn’t be coerced into lying or taking a political side or violating their oath, they are still human.

That doesn’t answer the question. That says the person can be asked about their health but no one is required to comply.

At least until Sony and Microsoft shutdown the servers for the consoles and they can’t validate themselves anymore.
If Valve ever stops supporting the SD and you still want to use it so some reason, then just install a new clean OS or just leave it in desktop mode and move on with life.
- Comment on Valve hikes Steam Deck prices by more than 40%, blaming rising costs 4 days ago:
I have a LCD too and the battery is starting to show signs of ware. I was thinking of getting a OLED and giving the LCD to my son. But I have the deckmate and the bag, it works great for attaching and swapping power banks. You’re right though, depending on the bank it can get pretty bulky and heavy.
- Comment on Why do my parents judge my friends based on appearance? 1 week ago:
If this photo is accurate, their appearance and body language reads as the Guy Richie stereotype European young thugs. It’s the track suits, shaved heads, and gold jewelry. Meeting them in person and reading body language and mannerisms would be a better tell.
Whether or not they are thugs, the fact that they are influenced by or idolize the concept can be signals to put their guard up. Theirs and by association your appearance sends signals on how you wish to be perceived and sometimes that’s enough to set off instinctual warnings. The next step is to convince your parents through actions and patterns.
- Comment on What belongs to who when it comes to wealthy families? 1 week ago:
I haven’t either, I bought it to give to them, so it’s theirs. That’s the definition of a gift, I’m not loaning it to them. Also, if I’m their parent and I need to protect my child or discipline them, I don’t need to confuse or attack them to make them with threats of ownership. It’s their belongings but I can ground or restrict their access because I their parent and they are my responsibility.

?
You’re upset because someone else won’t start a revolution so you’re not getting out of bed and making a dumb post in the wrong community instead.
Are you just lazy and looking for an excuse to stay in bed and hope that someone fixes it for you?

How does any of that change what’s happening today?
- Comment on Ol Nancys lil poodle 2 weeks ago:
I denied nothing. But you seem to be in denial that Trump is literally putting US citizens in jail and sending the FBI after people that call him out. You’re comment is “well Biden…”, obviously he isn’t the president anymore and we can’t change the past. Trying to justify the present bad situation by comparing it to another bad situation taken out of context is a pretty weak ass argument to justify pissing on the Constitution.
Grow a pair and get off the MAGA propaganda tit
- Comment on Ol Nancys lil poodle 2 weeks ago:
Trump is killing and detaining US citizens and putting them in worse camps for disagreeing with him or not being white enough. You’re justification is that Biden put border crossers in a shitty camp while they were processed.
- Comment on Why are some people deciding to switch to iOS as Android is putting on more (iOS-like) restrictions? 3 weeks ago:
I never went to Android for it’s file system. Side loading was a neat feature but I didn’t/don’t get much use out of it. For me it’s the fact that I can navigate the system much faster than iPhone, the 3 buttons are always in the same place, and there are a lot more customization options.
I find iphones to be slower, very restrictive in nearly every way, and unnecessarily expensive. My employer likes it because it’s easier to lockdown, my wife likes it because it is locked down and her friends have iphones. The only things I see that iPhone has over android is how widely accepted it is in the US and it’s security.
I would jump ship if there was a decent third option. I hate that Samsung dominates the android market in the US. I hate their UI, the style of their phones, and all the bloatware they install that can’t be uninstalled. I loved my Sony phones but I had to switch to Samsung because US carriers don’t support Sony and Sony doesn’t support a lot of US bands.
- Comment on How to ACTUALLY Quit Spotify. 3 weeks ago:
Use Amazon music or iTunes to purchase digital music. Buy physical media like a CD and rip the music. Piracy is the third option.
Use a tool of your choosing to export your Playlist from your favorite streaming service
Use your preferred mp3 music player. He really likes old ipods. 20min of the video is just him talking about his favorite music player.

- Comment on tech never works for long 5 weeks ago:
I could also get more info from your habits and you home type and quality from the thermostat. All at your convenience. I didn’t have to ask for permission to any private information. Just by the oven app alone I would have clues about your personal life-
I would now know about how far you are from home
That you are not home
That there’s no one home or that you don’t trust the people you live with to start the oven
How much you spend on utilities
What’s the average temperature you cook food at
How long you cook
How often you cook
Which part of the oven/stove you use most often
Where your home is located
How often you entertain
Where’s your favorite grocery store

Mr Dump, did you go outside in your pajamas to get your door dash and lock yourself out again?
- Comment on Do I tell my other partners or ignore the potential crush? 1 month ago:
I would think you’re new partner would be able to tell what your feels are towards your former partner. In most relationships there’s “the one that got away”, you should be able to have a conversation with your new partner about past relationships and find out what their feels are about past relationships. Then that will give you direction to either continue the conversation or leave the topic alone. The issue here is, you and what sounds like your first love are still in a non-romantic relationship that sounds like you are hoping to rekindle. This sounds toxic and you need to make a decision about what’s more important and is there really going to be an opportunity for rekindling the romantic relationship or if you’re just torturing yourself.
- Comment on 3 is enough. You don't need a fourth. Rotate using all 3 equally instead of spending 99% of the time on just one of them 1 month ago:
I read somewhere that it’s because you only breath out of one at a time, they take turns. One closes off when it gets too dry and the other takes over.
- Comment on Doritos sales crater after consumers refuse to pay $7 a bag 1 month ago:
Wow, that’s just dumb. Revenue is down and their solution is lower sales by increasing the price. Sales were probably down because the price was already too high for a non-essential food.

- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I’m sure there are companies (really just ignorant bosses) out there that would think longer shifts is a good idea but it’s pretty well researched that after about 8-10hrs of repetitive work that productivity drops drastically.
Also nurses working long shifts don’t usually do that for long periods of time and it’s usually voluntary, I’m not saying it doesn’t happen but that’s what unions are for. My aunt and two cousins are nurses at a Hospital.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Workaholic maybe? The name makes it seem like it’s an addiction to work but in reality it’s stress and anxiety forcing people to spend more time at work to either satisfy a deadline or impress the boss or to run away from home problems. The stress and anxiety will ultimately lead to early death or at least poor health.
- Comment on Steam lawsuits in a nutshell 1 month ago:
At the moment, I can’t say I really care that Steam and GoG are the only two major platforms on PC.
Eventually a CEO will take over at Valve and get too greedy and ruin it.
- Comment on [Technology Connections] Don't overthink electric car charging (we should be doing it differently) [52:12] 1 month ago:
Sure, if you want it to take a week to fully charge.
120vac at max 15 or 20 amps is going to take forever to charge. That’s why most car chargers are 230vac and 60amps.
