My GenX dad calling me and complaining about how much Indeed sucked for finding jobs was extremely validating.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you had to choose a new _lingua franca_, what language would you pick?
2·2 months agoI mean, I would argue that trade is a form of diplomacy, but whatever. My source points to the first example known as a lingua franca, and shows that the phrase “lingua franca” has nothing to do with the French language; however I can acknowledge the wide acceptance of French as a lingua franca much after the times where Sabir was widely spoken. Anyways, I think that’s enough arguing with strangers on the internet for me today.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you had to choose a new _lingua franca_, what language would you pick?
1·2 months agoIt wasn’t, the term lingua franca originates from the Mediterranean Lingua Franca, also known as Sabir, a pidgin language made up of bits from primarily romance languages (notably those of northern Italy) around the Mediterranean. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_Lingua_Franca

2·3 months agoIt’s part of general anesthesia, along with other drugs such as midazolam, propofol, ketamine, etomidate, etc. It augments anesthesia gases such as sevoflurane/desflurane/isoflurane, though we’re getting outside my realm of expertise; I’m not an anesthesiologist so I can’t specify why a certain combination of drugs might be used vs another.

3·3 months agoFentanyl is not the cheapest opiate in US hospitals, and is not used as a substitute for morphine or oxycodone. It’s primarily used for anesthesia, where oxycodone/hydrocodone/morphine/hydromorphone are used in the units as pain killers taken orally. Injectable hydromorphone is cheaper and more commonly used for acute pain than fentanyl.

2·5 months agoYes, everyone must hate this marvel of engineering because it burns fossil fuel like every other commercial aircraft in existence because we haven’t found a reasonable replacement yet.

3·6 months agoThis guy’s full of shit. You can talk all you want on the HF bands, they’re certainly not exclusively for contesting. You can do Morse code or digital modes too. The “most actual communication is illegal on ham bands” thing is wrong too, you can talk about pretty much anything you want as long as it’s not “obscene or profane,” according to the FCC.

9·6 months agoIt’s worth noting that most flu vaccines (the majority of all vaccines, really) in the US are preservative free anyways. The CDC’s decision is still based on junk science, but it doesn’t change much in the big picture.
