What the fuck is wrong with you?

What part of that interaction makes you think they'd want to work there after their contract expires?

That golden parachute turns into a golden coffin I guess.

I have KP as my health provider. A few weeks ago I had a really bad eye infection after doing some wood work. I went in to get it looked at, and they gave me an antibiotic ointment, but said there was a good chance I had developed an infection over and around a small piece of wood in my eye, and I needed to see an opthalmologist asap to get it removed. So they put in a high priority referral and I was told I should call and would be seen in one or two days.

I called when I got home, and the opthalmologist's office said the earliest they could see me was in six weeks. I told them the other doctor said I likely had wood in my eye that would need to be removed, but that didn't change their answer. So I went back to urgent care the next day and this new doctor removed it and gave me a second ointment to use.

Don't get me started on their mental health services. I tried to do an intake and set up recurring appointments with a therapist. After they did the intake and accepted me for therapy, they said the earliest appointment was in six months, to be seen for one hour every six months. So I didn't even bother.

I don't hold any of the medical professionals at fault, there's just not nearly enough of them to provide quality care or any semblance of continuity of care. KP's statements about being fully in compliance with staffing requirements are absolutely Hollywood accounting. They're not even close in reality.

Love it. Just please improve the update process. It's incredibly annoying and inconvenient to have to click through multiple dialog boxes, then close and reopen the program just to upgrade and get to work. Make it seamless in the background or upon exit and not startup. It's especially irritating when I'm opening np++ just to jot something down quickly, it defeats the purpose.

Or, ideally, liquidated and sold a department at a time to existing competitors, to ensure actual competition

Oh my sweet, summer child...

So... an even heavier and more expensive version for an even smaller niche of customers? Cool.

Gotta cut everyone some slack when estimating time since the pandemic. 3 years was 10 years ago.

I'm waiting for the Raspberry Pi 5 to set up as a media PC behind my tv. There are really good, reliable, and high quality sites that let you stream any movie or TV show. No need to vpn or torrent. Firefox with ublock origin streaming anything I want in 1080 for free.

I should add I have a RP4 and it's not beefy enough to stream 1080p full screen from a browser to my 4k tv.
