I’ve met a couple of cyborgs (assuming we don’t count birth control/hormone regulation implants as technology, which we should do because they are). One was thrilled to be categorized that way (she has a pacemaker) the other was not (nerve inhibitor for pain, doesn’t work very well).

So yeah I suppose it also depends on the goal and if the tech is friendly enough to achieve it. In the latter case, it doesn’t work because it’s very difficult to charge the battery. What a dumb reason to be crap implanted tech.

Caution is very much warranted.

Depends if your union is regional or just your workplace.

Most of the manufacturing unions in my area are just that, the area. All the trade unions are as well, and probably the teachers union too.

Thanks for taking the time to write all that out for me! I appreciate it and I’ll look into some of those!

Have a great day, friend!

There are therapeutic vaccines, like for rabies, which you only get after you have been exposed to the thing to be treated (in this case, cancer).

Preventative vaccinations are for sure the ones we are most familiar with, but they aren’t the only kind :)

Out of those I’ve devoted a ton of time to rimworld and oxygen not included, are any of the others on your list similar, or others you’d recommend for someone who likes them? I tried dwarf fortress but I found it to be… not my bag. I didn’t get very far into it tho.

(I do like mods, so that’s an ok requirement)

They make noise, but it’s a verrry different sort of noise.

The third pandemic is a good book about a variety of diseases, including bird flu, mingling in a host (bird) body, morphing into a superbug, and wiping out huge swaths of the population.

If you like to read, it’s quite good, if a bit long. (but notably I read it in 5th grade and hauled around a dictionary for a lot of it.. it sticks hard in my memory, because my step dad gave it to me after finishing it himself, and it was a challenge. One of our few shared positive things from the era where he almost killed me multiple times.. but I haven’t read it in a hot minute; just shy of 30 years..)

I’ve been doing these for years.. they don’t work as intended for more than a year or two, and then become pretty unstable. Even the lady who created it went back to low-maintenance (as opposed to zero input) systems after a few years. Still with the dirt and all but not without water movement and stuff.

I had a similar problem with ocarina of time (and lemme tell you having to run around in not one but multiple times was a… blast…)

It was the first Gannon fight where you shoot the paintings.. I’d never played a Zelda game before and it took me ages to give up and look it up (thankfully this was after the internet was born, and walkthrough sites were all over)

I tried to clean the filter in my dishwasher after having had it for a year or so.. unscrewed a bunch of stuff trying to find it.. ultimately turned to the internet for answers. Like why is this so goddamned difficult?

Turns out, some of them now (I bought this one about 10 years ago, it’s midrange at best) don’t have them, they have macerators, sort of like a tiny garbage disposal inside the dishwasher.

So that question isn’t always wrong.

The most likely way it got there is he rubbed his eye and transferred an egg he picked up touching something.

For example (tho probably not the exact method), some species lay their eggs on the coat of horses, kid pets a horse and picks up an egg, rubs eye and transfers it. It hatches and burrows in and the rest you saw.

I guess I lump that in with sounds I ignore. I’ve had it for a loooong time, and it doesn’t bother me until I think about it (so you know, thanks.. 😑😜)
