Just make sure to tell your friend that 600amp wires are expensive and THICK.

This was in early 2000 New York and Washington DC. Spent about a month there and saw it daily.

Going out in public in your pajamas.

How difficult it is to find fresh produce in small shops (food deserts)

How much fat is in all the meat.

How old and badly maintained many of the roads and bridges are (I am from Africa, so that says something)

The levels of national arrogance.

My uncle is a medical equipment installer that installs and calibrates MRI machines.

The issue is more than just the physical damage, which can be expensive, these machines take a long time to calibrate to the local environment. If the electromagnets are damaged, the whole set needs to be replaced, as they are manufactured in matching batches.

It’s like if you damage a piston in an engine, it will cause damage to the crank shaft, which will also damage the rest of the engine. It’s a helluva job to fix.

Can we take a moment to recognize how amazingly detailed and authentic the tanks are drawn in that show.

Totally unnecessary for the story, but the tank nerd fan service is much appreciated.

That would have been a Take2 decision.
