Business as usual. All the execs get golden parachutes and will probably have another high paying job lined up right after. Welcome to the machine.
Lethal radiation poisoning. It's a long, agonizing death as your body dies out from under you.
Full body burns with complication of infection would be another awful way to go.
I just leave dents in my car. If it's functional, it serves it's purpose. I'm married, so I don't have anyone to impress with my car. Practicality all the way.
I'm a radiologic technologist, and I got really excited for a second when I saw the penetration diagram. I never see memes involving my area of study.
The more time I've spent studying and researching new tech, the more I feel like, even to people today, our technology is magical.
I'm a medical diagnostic technologist. I understand how a CT and MRI machine work. They're still the stuff of magic imo. A lot of people take these technologies for granted because they're fairly prominent, but do you have any idea how a spinning magnet produces high quality, 3d images of the inside of your body? Very few people do. It's still freaking amazing and ingenious when you do understand it. Remodeling a CT scan into a 3d render is similarly impressive. The amount of calculations that take place within the space of seconds would take years for someone to do on paper, and we do 25-30 patients a day in our one machine at my location.
AI is making a big wave in my field too. Pretty soon we may only need radiologists to oversee AI rather than having to diagnose every exam themselves. AI on our consoles will be able to diagnose before we even send our images to a rad since they're so good at pattern recognition. Their readings have shown to be more accurate than a radiologist in some studies.
50 years ago we didn't even have consumer computers. Now our computers can diagnose and type a pneumothorax more accurately and faster than a doctor who has spent his whole life diagnosing xrays.
I watched The Ring and The Grudge when I was 12. I had trouble sleeping for the next year or two because I kept imagining I could see Kayako watching me from the ceiling of my closet, and slept with the TV on because it scared me less than the blank screen.
I was not a smart child.
