Can someone explain this to me? I don't get it.

This, in addition to the other comment calling it a scammer cleared it up for me. I initially read it as "doing yogas...". Guess I'm out of touch.

I was wondering if it was a scammer thing. Makes sense, thanks!

I was wondering how in the hell they got IRB approval for a placebo of "I'll just cut on you but not do surgery". Saw it was 2002, but still was surprised. Then I saw it came from VA in Texas, and all questions were answered.

Good that you've both found a way to feel superior to others

Completely unrelated, what are the privacy concerns from discord?

[OC] Anyone else insist on using the generic name for all meds? (lemmy.world)

Image: 4 panels organized in a rectangle following a sequential order like a comic strip. The first panel is of a man with a very serious face stating, "Hey man, got any diphenhydramine?" The second panel is a grainy picture of the actor Robert Downey Jr. with a slightly inquisitive face and saying, "What's that?" The third...

I do. I extend it beyond medicines as well. Corporations have spent lots of money for their brands to be household names. They don't control my language.

Specifically to medicine, I will note that the generic name actually carries information that the brand name does nothing for. Lisinopril and enalopril are the same medication class, act similar. Amlodipine, nimodipine, nicardipene are all the same class. Those generic names have important meaning.

Don't you mean bleach wipes?

Just watched that portion. When he scrolls down to "yes do as I say" you can literally see two lines above it stating it will remove desktop environment.

Outputs exist for a reason, folks.

Fever is not 100F. A fever is defined as 100.4F. Why 100.4 when 100 is a much easier to remember and handle number? Because fever is defined in humans as 38C, and that converts to 100.4F.
