that does change things, although I'm not sure it affects the argument that US hospitals use ED as a buffer to ward off political desire for cost control, insofar as the response to "the ED dept has been shut due to budgetary concerns" is reliably "please open it again, we'll find some way to work the accounting magic so you get more money".
The SSORM actually has instructions for how to deal with toilets in the event that the submarine is bottomed out and is without power/reduced power awaiting rescue.
You know what? I approve of this.
It's so gross though. The solution to reduce flushing to the absolute minimum is to have people sprinkle packages of powdered drink mix over the toilet to form a barrier against odor and to not flush until it's about to overflow.

That's weird. Until now I have never seen an optical disc reader that takes discs of the standard size that couldn't play CDs.
Well technically that's still the case with the PS4 console not being shown, but still. :P
if it could play CDs then they could have included PS1 backwards compat instead of charging you again for shitty old PS1 games that you've already paid for separately on several different sony consoles.
are military vessels allowed to dump sewage overboard
I can see civilian vessels being subject to that limitation, but military vessels tend to be freed of environmental concerns if it would compromise any other objectives
Yes this is on the FP of reddit and if it was posted already, I am sorry, but this isn't for points. I just find it fascinating and wonder how correct it is or if it's an oversimplification of graphics over the generations.
Its true at least on it's theory. Of course it ignores some of the other even more significant advances than simply pushing polygons. The last 5 years or so I'd say the biggest breakthroughs have been made with lighting, particle and texture effects not raw polygon counts.
Weird because you would never even use 6k on that 3rd mesh you would use half of that then use a normal map for all the detals
You know, my friend is telling me that when/if I get into this MA program I've applied to, it might just wind up turning into a PhD track -- you never know. Thing is, though, I don't really wanna do the academia thing; I wanna do foreign policy in a fed'rull gubmint, IGO/NGO, or think tank context... but apparently that last one also basically requires a PhD as a minimum barrier to entry. I mean, I guess worst comes to worse, I can actually just go and teach... but oh god a 4-6 year doctoral commitment... fml.

The navy doesn't dump anything unless it is in the middle of the sea and our carrier fleet is "greener" than the civilian cruise industry.

I think civilian vessels are allowed to dump at least gray water in most places.
Military vessels probably have various restrictions (and on a sub that stuff is getting treated and the water reused, I think?) but if it has to happen, the brass isn't going to cry for flipper getting pooped on.

Surface vessels are supposed to try to offload waste in port to the maximum extent possible. Submarines pump waste overboard, and use biodegradable toilet paper, and have special weighted canisters for trash that ensure they stay on the bottom of the ocean.
And subs haven't been allowed to jettison any plastics or toxics and such for years now.
And obviously subs have area limitations on where they can discharge waste or trash it's not like they hover over the great barrier reef and blast their trash at it while cackling.

Get a PhD. We can be doctor buddies and really annoying about it.

Sorry, I realize this is keeping you on a path or whatever, but it is really really grating. I can handle an impassable wall. A 2 foot ledge breaks immersion.

would the system fail before or after you run out of breathable atmosphere?

Without resorting to Wiki... Wallerstein is a Marxist, right? I think we had a reading on him (which I naturally didn't read) last week for my IR Theories course. But yeah, we basically get all the intellectual backing to these abstract ideas about "realism," "liberalism," and "whatever the fuck constructivism is" very backloaded in our program. I assume they thought it'd be too much too soon to make us take all this at the beginning of our upper-division stuff? The professor doing my Development of IR Thought class (which along with IR Theories make up the exit/"capstone" courses for us as IR majors) pretty much told me she thinks they fucked it up too when I asked her.
That said... while I definitely agree with the idea behind a political philosophy course, I don't necessarily think people in DC or London or Brussels are sitting there on a daily basis thinking "What would Kant do." To be sure, Dead White Guys' contributions to political philosophy definitely can't be understated... but the majority of their contributions are now taken for granted (Hobbes and sovereignty/need for the state; Grotius and natural law that governs states; Kant and democratic peace; etc.) and implicit in the choices of most international actors. We should certainly know what these implicit influences are, but I can also certainly imagine someone going into policymaking at the highest levels without knowing what the difference is between Pufendorf's and Hobbes's view of the need for the state.
why not release it slowly over time so there wouldn't be a sonar signal
or like have it captured as a solid and then released as a solid so it would sink real far away

How about a game where you can jump over the walls but there's nothing out there but a big flat plane. Eventually, the player character turns to face the screen with tears in his eyes. Why did you do this? Why couldn't you let him have the illusion? And then he takes his own life.

just got the advertisement / trailer for that new bungie game on youtube. I actually sat through 3 minutes of it after the "skip" button lit up.
Was thinking "wow, that concept art looks nice. For the plot they stole from and then expanded on Homeworld and that ain't no bad thing. Steal from the good games people. Hey neat spaceships. Oh. It's an FPS. bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeech." *presses skip*
it was like 3 minutes of cool stuff then they showed the actual game and it's just another Halo.

that a pretty silly comparison.

geom shaders mildly confuse me

shaders alone were a damn good reason why a new generation of console hardware was long overdue.
They were in a very primitive state back when the 360 and ps3 were being designed.
it was described as basically requiring an engineer to operate
Geometry shaders efficiently solve a problem that I'm not good enough at 3D graphics programming to have encountered in the first place.

So I can do 2D stuff easily but don't ask me to explain what the function I'm calling does.
