I'm taking a week off Nostr to focus on some personal projects. Sorry if I'm dropping anyone in the middle of a discussion. It isn't personal.
Peace!

16:10 aspect ratio is god tier. I can't go back.
Good point. We have a mountain of our own failures in many areas. I think the UK is generally worse off right now though.

I agree with a lot of this. It's even a cultural expectation that getting good sleep is nearly impossible when it's often a critical component of healing.
And we are overworked to the point that many of us face the choice of cutting corners and caring less or burning out and leaving the industry. Hell, maintaining our own health is often secondary to the work. I've chosen to reduce my clinical hours and slowly exit.
I don't like the lighting and many of my colleagues are buying glasses to reduce the harshness of the blue light. It feels so cold. My facility is somewhat lucky in that we have windows with nice views. We've had visitors from other facilities comment on how nice it is to see outside occasionally when moving through the building.
The food is dog shit, but honestly most of the patients wouldn't want actually good food. It's sad, but that's where we are. The best we can offer is vending machines or cafeteria food when it's open or the few things we stock in a refrigerator - dry turkey sandwich, PB&J, etc (who knows what is in that food).
There's also a decent chance you'll leave with more than you came with. We try to clean well, but it's hard to keep up with demand. Nothing ever gets cleaned to the standard I think it should. If it did, wait times and access would be a lot worse.
There's a mountain of inefficiencies and rules that waste a lot of money. Most people have no idea how bad it is and it isn't necessarily the hospital's greed like a lot of people want to believe.

It's really really really hard not to call people retarded when they say ending Capitalism is the solution to some undesirable product or service outcome.
I'm trying hard to be better.
@Vitor Pamplona temporary mute would be a cool feature.
Fortunately, a lot of women are realizing how dumb this shit is.

This is really fun to see when shitty USB-C ports inevitably fail.


#Bitcoin development/discussion/debate should be maximally open on a protocol like #Nostr. I don't feel great about involving Google or Microsoft products (or any proprietary tool) or having development centralized to one group within those walls.
We should always look for opportunities to improve transparency and access.
