Guys, at my new job in a newly built hospital, we have to use 90's pagers, no assigned hospital cellphones, loving pagers. It's legit the worst, sitting around waiting for people to call you back on a hard-line is the worst, i'm in hell.

naw we can use our cellphones too, the nurses get hospital phones that work in the new building but not complex wide, the therapy department is still running off dark ages tech but it does work complex wide.

Collateral Damage posted:You can 3D print steel. pretty awesome, but i doubt deposited steel is nearly as strong as cast or forged. 3d printing is great for prototyping though.

Metal Geir Skogul posted:They are actually finding that, with the proper toolpaths and deposition settings, you can get parts that are sometimes stronger in the axis that matter during part use versus machining from a cast or forged piece. I guess it's all about grain structure and pre-tensioned axis due to uneven cooling? As it is, a lot of jet engine blades are grown from a single crystal of metal for strength, but last year Siemens won an award from the ASME for using additive manufacturing (3D printing) to make turbine blades that were stronger in some aspects and cheaper to manufacture in others. Ok that is rad as heck. Reminds me of the scifi series, Revelation Space, where nanobots coat starships and are constantly repairing stuff microscopically and can make complex crystal structures.

I tried a week with my N900 and N97 a few years ago but caved in cos my 2FA and banking apps. I had a 32x/sega-cd combo back in the day, it was my pride and joy, then ps1 came out and ruined that mans whole career.
