It’s been a long day, and I chose to drink… so I’ll bite. There’s definitely been what seems an increase in public awareness of narcissism and manipulation, but the “general public”, to me, has taken free reign on what exactly that means. I see a lot of accurate and also complete misinformation regarding those two topics within social media.

It feels all the rage these days, but maybe I’m just getting old. “Opinions are like @$$holes, everyone has one” was a good mantra growing up that I try to apply to most facets of life.

Not trying to troll or creep. I didn’t realize what instance I was on at first. But I read your spelling and my head immediately jumped to the Borgs from Star Trek. Got a solid cackle from me. It’s been a long disappointing day so genuinely, thank you for my laughter. I’ve seen too much RISA maybe. Have a great one

You have made my day. I remembered this movie but didn’t remember the name!

Time to revisit some nostalgia

Calling 911 is the right way to go. Activating emergency response system. And if you don’t make sure someone else does and tells you they have. So many times people assume someone else called and no one has.

There was a push at one point in time to teach bystander CPR, which focuses on compressions at a rate of 100-120 a minute with a little less focus on landmarks and more “middle of the chest and go”. It also taught that people typically have about 20 minutes of reserve oxygen in their venous system and that compressions continuously increased survivability by keeping the circulation going through compressions. Considering average ems response time in the US, it seemed to reduce confusion and encouraged more community response (not wanting to do mouth to mouth is a fear people have). Not sure if it’s still being taught, but it was fairly well received at the time.

Thanks for the assist!

If you’re in the US (it is the cdc) you can look up healthcare acquired infection rates on the CMS website.

There is also this: https://www.hospitalsafetygrade.org/. It gives a letter grade for hospitals using some of that cms data and some other required / optional metrics.

Mind you, the data sets provided by CMS are usually 2 years old and the hospitals may have made improvements since that data. Reimbursement is tied to those rates being lower (sort of)

I guess that’s what happens when you don’t have snakes 😬

It’s related to the CSAM stuff that happened a bit ago. Most of the instances purged and disabled the Pictrs database until a better solution can be determined. The general thought process is to use an external site for now

Have you looked at Trello? It has an android app and can be a simple layout or more complex.

My good person. It may not be 100% open ended but it does allow for commentary, be it settings, battery, etc. And it encourages commentary (which benefits Lemmy’s growth).
