saves you money, but the lawyer starves

2020-11-20 13:58:49 UTC  

Reminds me of a friend at JH. He has a bumper sticker saying: "Support your local Lawyer. Become a Doctor!"

Only reason I can tell it's an autoclave is because my father was a bmet tech and had to fix them all the time when I was a kid.

2020-11-20 14:00:07 UTC  

And I presumed they're still as expensive.

2020-11-20 14:00:10 UTC  

usefull skill

2020-11-20 14:00:20 UTC  

The high end ones are, yes.

2020-11-20 14:00:29 UTC  

Im sure someone in china makes a cheap one.

2020-11-20 14:00:40 UTC  

ali express autoclave. 9.99

2020-11-20 14:00:50 UTC  

goes all the way to 62 degrees!

2020-11-20 14:00:58 UTC  

(celcius)

2020-11-20 14:01:01 UTC  

I can check the brand for you, sec.

2020-11-20 14:01:46 UTC  

STATIM 2000.

2020-11-20 14:03:37 UTC  

a casette one?

2020-11-20 14:04:00 UTC  

I think so?

2020-11-20 14:04:02 UTC  

I think its dental.

2020-11-20 14:04:15 UTC  

outside my competency.

2020-11-20 14:04:25 UTC  

I start at the gums/canium.

2020-11-20 14:04:34 UTC  

Everything, including the root, is not my business.

2020-11-20 14:04:44 UTC  

Unless there is a root abscess. Then its my business.

2020-11-20 14:04:54 UTC  

It's the G4 one, I just looked on the site.

2020-11-20 14:05:46 UTC  

pretty sure that is dental.

2020-11-20 14:06:05 UTC  

or for dwarf surgery, possibly.

2020-11-20 14:06:28 UTC  

"...and you have my autoclave!"
"gee, thanks mr. Gimli..."

2020-11-20 14:07:23 UTC  

Dwarves just douse everything in alcohol.

2020-11-20 14:07:46 UTC  

That is probably true.

2020-11-20 14:08:48 UTC  

Prechristian medicine here (norse), used onions and alcohol for sterile procedures. I imagine dwarfs, living side by side with my ancestors, picking up on this, or possibly the other way around.

2020-11-20 14:09:04 UTC  

Medical conditions in prechristian medicine was often named after known dwarfs.

2020-11-20 14:09:20 UTC  

[no, I am actully *not* making this up]

2020-11-20 14:10:43 UTC  

Hernia, for instance, is still called "brokk" in norwegian and swedish. Brokk is the name of the dwarf running the bellows when Thors hammer was forged. [see the connection?]

2020-11-20 14:11:45 UTC  

(the one on the right)

2020-11-20 14:15:01 UTC  

Had one of those when I was a kid, not fun.

2020-11-20 14:15:11 UTC  

Also a very lasting scar.

2020-11-20 14:15:59 UTC  

Scars are good. Scars have the power to remind us yesterday was real.

2020-11-20 14:16:01 UTC  

That is also interestingly shaped, it looked like a heart chamber.

2020-11-20 14:16:19 UTC  

the hernia, or the scar?

2020-11-20 14:16:32 UTC  

The carving.

2020-11-20 14:16:44 UTC  

nice. Interesting surgeon.

2020-11-20 14:16:53 UTC  

probably put his heart into it.

2020-11-20 14:16:57 UTC  

Pff.
