Yeah, in the UK they reduced the amount you can buy at once too, so drugs like paracetamol and ibuprofen only come in 16 tablet packs and you can only buy 2 packs at a shop., It's helped lower suicides quite well.
People here have a real aversion to taking tablets a lot of the time. I have to convince people to take regular paracetamol (which is non addictive and doesn't have side effects so long as you don't take more than the recommended amount) after they have had surgery semi-regularly.
I keep hearing it's amazing but I bounced off hard on the first couple episodes. I wish anime didn't need the 5 episodes rule, things should sell themselves from the start. Maybe I'll give it another go. My wife is keen to watch it.
Oh god the handover after your first long drive into VR is something else. Nothing felt real for me for a good few hours. Super weird experience.
Yes I'm theory but it's very difficult / unlikely to happen.
Seems to be free on Android. Thanks for the recommendation though, seems fun from my first run ☺️
Check out Furi.
It's a flashy boss rush style game. A bit bullet hell a bit brawler. Might scratch that itch for you.
You could also try Sifu, it's got really slick skill based combat and interesting bosses.
Doesn't quite fit the bill as there's a planet eventually but Children of Time by Tchaikovsky is excellent and half the book follows a generation ship. The other half follows a successive evolution of uplifted spiders. It's reasonably hard sci-fi not Martian levels of detail about the science but very well written and enjoyable. Could be worth a go for some inspiration.
I know my universe is at least internally consistent from experience. I think therefore I am after all.
Not all science relies on our senses but it does rely on our interpretation of results which is why we often use meta analysis looking at multiple studies to try to control for as much human bias as possible.
The top comment currently is about null hypothesis, you don't prove your assertion you disprove it under specific measured circumstances, it's really hard to prove the existence of, well anything really, but we can at fairly reliably show we are at minimum sharing a simulation as people can have the same experiences of events.
I'm pretty sure you can make the g2 boot straight to steam vr at the moment so hopefully that will just become the default. Otherwise I'll just have to stop updating my computer which is less ideal.
I'm in healthcare so 8 hour day probably has 9 hours of work in it. Lunch break if I'm lucky.
Steve is an adorable loving companion who will fight to the death to save his friends.
(He is also a giant creepy bug with huge teeth).
So people with end stage cancer do often deteriorate like that, the morphine is unlikely to have caused her death but it would have definitely made her more comfortable. You did the right thing for your grandma. You didn't speed up her death, you cared for her through a difficult time. Thank you for being there for them.
If this is playing on your mind get in touch with the hospice/ palliative care team who were involved and talk it through with them. They will be happy to help and won't mind you calling at all, even if it is a long time since it happened.
