  I used to love this game as a kid. Tried to return to it a few years later though and found it was one of those ‘game speed = cpu speed’ setups which was unplayably fast on my new 800mhz machine. I should track down an emulator for it…

  I very much agree. Also, in a lot of places, that indicator on your license is not legally binding, the decision still comes down to your next of kin.

  A system where everyone is a donor by default, but can opt out in a low-effort manner such as sending off a signed declaration, would still allow those with a genuine desire not to be donors the ability to do so, but would greatly increase the donor pool by capturing the majority of indifferent people who simply have not made the effort to opt in.

  There are dozens of us, dozens!

  It’s a bandaid fix though. Abolishing capitalism so that we could focus on innovation without needing to monetise it in order to eat is a better idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What ever happened to Ipecac? Why is it rarely used today, there was some side effects but not to warrant most hospitals to abruptly stop the use of it.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There are a lot fewer staff around than TV would have you believe. You would need basically 1-on-1 supervision until the drug wore off, which is very resource intensive compared to a one-time intervention.

  I mean, is that not what they all did?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When is the best time to leave your dog in the car without getting a window smashed from a wannabe hero? Info Inside⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Put a thermometer in plain view and tape your phone number to the window as a backup in case someone is unable to see the thermometer, or your AC has malfunctioned and there is an actual issue.
