Don’t bother arguing here; you’ll just get upset. I genuinely sympathize with your attempts to shed some light on what’s true as opposed to what people furiously want to be true to the degree that they’ve convinced themselves it is.
Unfortunately, Lemmy is a cesspool of hatred and misinformation, and by trying to bring some nuance, you only stir the pot.
I’ve no interest in debating your opinion, forgive me for not entertaining it. Perhaps you’ve not recalled your past interactions accurately, and my only goal here is to correct the misinformation written in this thread.
If you’re instead looking for some sources, I’ve performed a rudimentary search on interpreting paragraph 64:
That is not the full paragraph. It reads:
“If it is not practicable or appropriate to seek consent, and in exceptional cases where a patient has refused consent, disclosing personal information may be justified in the public interest if failure to do so may expose others to a risk of death or serious harm. The benefits to an individual or to society of the disclosure must outweigh both the patient’s and the public interest in keeping the information confidential.”
Let’s not forget that you had previously stated:
FYI a dokter/psychiatrist [sic] is just as banned from exposing a confessed murder or rapist,
From this UK source, doctors are explicitly exempt from violating doctor-patient confidentiality in the aforementioned case. This directly contradicts your statement.
I’m eager to read your referenced citations from the individuals you’ve interviewed in other regions where doctors would be banned in such cases.
Doctor patient confidentiality does not override the public interest.
Have we resorted to stating overt lies now? The most basic internet search will provide you with reliable sources that show this absurd statement is untrue.
Thanks for sharing. Honestly it’s been nagging at me because I’m coincidentally on a business trip. It occurred to me whether I should tip the gas station attendant (or whatever it’s called, the person who refuels your car in some states). He didn’t seem to expect it and I didn’t, but I’ve begun worrying about whom I should be tipping.
I wasn’t aware about this specific way that corporate America is creating cultural habits that benefit them at the expense of the consumer. I’ll confess that it’s odd to learn about them from a fellow consumer.
It seems to me that hotels should be more upfront about their staff being unpaid and clearly post the guidelines you’ve shared about donations from guests. Although, I suppose that if they cared about the well being of their staff, they would pay them a livable wage in the first place.
As for me, I’m irked that I’ve evidently been a cheapskate over the years. I’m generally a very tidy person—I make my bed, take off my shoes when entering the room, and neatly organize my things in my suitcase and in the wardrobe. I find it awkward and unnecessary for housekeeping to attend to my room daily, and now I feel torn and more awkward about having to pay somebody extra for something I don’t want or deem necessary.
As a European, I had no idea this was something I needed to do. Man, I have so many questions.
How much? Is it a fixed amount per night or a gesture amount for the whole stay? Do I only put money in the envelope when I’m leaving or do I get a new envelope every day? Is it always the same housekeeper? Do they pool the money and divide it among themselves? If there’s anything the matter with the housekeeping, do I dock it from their tip? Are there envelopes for the bus driver, too?
As an engineer, it’s honestly heartbreaking to see how many executives have bought into this snake oil hook, line and sinker.
In 2014 he promised 90% autonomous by 2015. That was over a decade ago and it’s still not close to that…
That’s one perspective. On Lemmy alone I’ve seen various posts naming the specific individuals for assassination, citing specifics about how to do it, and inciting violence within those threads towards people of opposing political views. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to take these threats seriously.
I strongly object to inciting violence, in particular strongly object to your suggestion that I, or others in this thread, should use violence against Donald J. Trump. It’s absolutely not “necessary,” as you’ve stated. Despite your attempts to change my mind, I wholeheartedly disagree with your position on using violence.
Peaceful protests and civil disobedience are perfectly acceptable and effective means of expressing dissent non-violently.
This pleases you?! That is fucking sickening.
?
Your first proposal was to use violence, so let’s explore that thought.
Would you take pride in living in a nation where political opponents are assassinated when half the country dissents? This doesn’t sound like a better society than what we have today.
I will respectfully reject your suggestion to turn to violence and encourage others in this thread to also not be incited to do so.
Care to enlighten us about who your intended arson victims will be?
Are you sure this is the position you want to take?
I saw a Pixel 10 Pro with 128 GB storage online today.
Kinda crazy (stupid) how people spend that much on a fucking TV.
How ironic that the person making the claim is asking for evidence to the contrary.
