I'm pretty sure Dean Kamen created a canon to launch people into the upper stories of a building. Maybe they could use that.

The thing is, you could more or less order that for $5 as late as a year or so ago with some customizations to their other boxes. (Granted, I place no value on the cinnamon twists)

It's a reference to a reddit user (https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/1gnxkgd/comment/lweabef/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) who would post these intricate comments with these really engaging stories that would then end with that last paragraph, which describes the events of a 1998 wrestling show where the wrestler The Undertaker threw the wrestler Mankind (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mankind_vs._The_Undertaker) and the type of wrestling match (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hell_in_a_Cell ).

Yeah, good point.

I actually figured that the coverage for gender affirming care is one of the least awful things about UHC. That said I guess I'm not surprised about it initially not being covered.

Edit: actually hold on, my benefits guide definitely used to say something about them paying for travel to a safe state for care and even some hotel nights being covered, but I don't see that anymore...

He's been the CEO of UnitedHealth Group for 3 years now. UnitedHealth Care is a subsidiary, their CEO was the one shot. Best I can tell they haven't announced a replacement yet.

If it seems small that's because UnitedHealthcare is the insurance arm of UnitedHealth Group, which has its own CEO more in line with the other salaries listed. CVS Health, for example, has Aetna and other insurance arms under it, and the CEO listed was the (former) CEO of that top level company.

Felt it like a hundred miles inland too. Really deep slow rumbles here.

It was a quote from the TV show Scrubs about Arnold Palmer.

Kinda, yeah.

I think it's gotta be. I'm guessing it takes the descriptions of some images, and feeds them into a text to image ai for the example to use?
