How many hospitals would waste money on a remote surgery robot rather than hiring more doctors or better doctors
A few years ago I read an article about hospitals that bought telesurgery equipment to compete with other hospitals in the same area. So it apparently happens.
The punchline? The telesurgery equipment sits idle much of the time.
You beat me to it. The only possible reason for a 5G network to be involved with telesurgery, would be to serve as a backup to the backup wired network, which itself is a backup to the primary wired network.
I opt-out, too. The TSA guys are relaxed once they see that I know how it works, and that I'm not trying to make some political statement. I think this is a key factor.
It takes a few extra minutes for the pat-down, and that's generally not a problem for me.
...had to buy an adapter, which defeats the purpose of the smaller jack.
It defeats the purpose for the end user, but not for the device manufacturer who wanted to make a super-thin device.
And yes, I do agree that it was a bad overall situation. It seems like the manufacturer performed a disservice to the user, just to claim "our device is thinner".
TARS: I deleted the automatic airlock subroutine.
Brandt: What? Mr. Trump, do NOT open the airlock!
Cooper: Did you say "Trump"?
Brandt: Right.
Cooper: Mr. Trump, it's the big red handle on the right hand side. Pull it really fast!
If the straw-woman chick in your story is in India, then you are describing "offshoring" rather than H1B. In that case, it is very likely she was awarded the work purely because her hourly rate is lower than a worker with the same title in the U.S., without regard to differences in actual productivity.

Defense Secretary: "What?"
"Ship"? As in "a water-going vessel"?

Yeah, but think of the size of the "hair" that it fits within.
I have the uneasy feeling that Shkreli and Bieber would get along pretty well.
Which is a different concept entirely from "Hair Fusion", As Seen On TV.
I'm going to go with the movie "They Live", by John Carpenter.
Yes. And I'm not even sure if her grandchildren are still children.

(No, I'm not going to check reality. This is too funny.)

Paraphrasing the movie _Interstellar_:

Ahhhg. Now my stomach is churning. That happens every time she comes up.
To be fair, many Congresscritters induce a similar effect, but the force is strong with Nancy.
More like "the devil", in this case.

Or a Constitution.
Oh, wait....

Thanks for the link.
Interesting, and plausible.
