bad news for us anesthesia lovers, riding off the high from experiencing the void
Blue Cross Blue Shield will no longer cover anesthesia for the full length of certain surgeries in Connecticut, New York, and Missouri.
If a surgery exceeds a specific duration, anesthesia costs for the additional time will not be covered.

I can't believe I finally get to say this. SDL3 is officially ABI locked!
We will _add_ new things but not _change_ or _remove_ what's there, starting right now. Which means it's safe to start migrating your games to it, starting today!

these posts are so annoying. the defining characteristic of T1 diabetes is that your body's immune system is actively killing the cells that produce insulin. islet cell transplantation has been a thing, the problem is the body is killing them off.

China just cured Type 1 diabetes with stem cells!
Within 75 days, the patient had normal glucose level; and has maintained that for a year now.
Groundbreaking medical accomplishment! And the surgery takes only half an hour!

This strange tweet got >25k retweets. The author sounds confident, and he uses lots of hex and jargon. There are red flags though... like what's up with the DEI stuff, and who says "stack trace dump"? Let's take a closer look... 🧵1/n

fuck offfffff. what is the point of a platform holder valued at THREE TRILLION DOLLARS if you're just going to shut down studios shortly after acquiring them?

this is fucking awful. prey has been one of the best games in the last decade, and we need more stuff like hi fi rush. this blows.

Today's newsletter is the story of how Prabhakar Raghavan, Google's former head of ads - led a coup so that he could run Google Search, and how an email chain from 2019 began a cascade of events that would lead to him running it into the ground.

i saw this shirt from a distance when i was a kid and was obsessed with it. i thought cronic was a new hedgehog they introduced in some game i haven't seen yet.
ALT 90s vintage shirt that has a depiction of Sonic the Hedgehog as "Cronic the Hemp Hog" where he's green instead of blue, spikes resembling marijuana leaves and grabbing its own crotch while smoking a blunt

They have launched a SECOND lawsuit against me.
If this was intended to wear me down even further, I won’t let it. Hopefully it will all be over soon- but I need your help again.
Thank you for sharing/donating, I couldn't do this without you x

since then my blood sugars have been whack, constant highs and lows. and they want me to go through this for at least 4 weeks, just for a fucking software update. fuck you, @TandemDiabetes.
i pay for the supplies they make, but that's not fucking enough for them.
