Is tarkov not a massive time sink? I feel like I’m committed to 2+hours every time I try to sit down and play, and the mid game crafting you almost have to undertake to get quality ammo makes you have to log in almost daily to not waste resources.
I think you’re misunderstanding what most of them keep practicing. It’s not the kooky cranial/cervical manipulation(you can make an argument that them having to learn that stuff in the first place is BS and a waste of time), but most do pick up a few muscle pressure point tricks and stretches that are essentially the same as what PT instructs patients on how to do. Is it bullshit? No more so than most medicine that’s practiced(the data behind the vast majority of what your average physician does is at best all over the place, the truly “settled” clinical questions are few and far between). In my book though, anything that keeps you from having to prescribe a scheduled drug (read as:narcotic or muscle relaxer) to get someone functional from something like severe trapezius tightness or piriformus syndrome is a heck of a tool to have at your disposal in a primary care or urgent care setting.
So, DO’s in many of not most states in the US have the same licensure and practice limitations as MDs and charge/are reimbursed similarly. I’m many cases they actually attend the same residency programs as allopathic/MDs. Most I’ve worked with drop 99% of the Osteopathic manipulation stuff soon as they graduate. Naturopaths on the other hand…
Not all that different from the canada crj series. Those always feel like they are too long for their wingspan.
Houses, public and commercial buildings, everything needs to be rethought. Currently visiting the UK from a much warmer and more humid climate in the states. It’s bizarre that it’s pleasant outside but almost uniformly uncomfortably warm (and frankly, more important humid) inside. Out hotel room is supposedly air conditioned but stays a uniform 25-26c no matter what the thermostat is set on. It’s “working appropriately” according to management and their 3 different maintenance staff that have “adjusted” it, but it is not handling the humidity well. The only saving grace is one of the windows will open ~6in to allow us to open it at night. The bigger picture is how this heat and humidity are going to effect the buildings and their contents. It doesn’t take all that long a time for humidity and high indoor temps to allow serious mold issues to start taking hold. People forget the original use of ac wasn’t for human comfort but to keep goods (specifically paper) dry so it didn’t curl and become unusable by a printing company.
Any chance you have an Indian grocery near you? The ones I’ve gone to often have pg tips for way cheaper than that.
