The ambulance-drone is capable of saving lives!

oohlalasassoon says...

Yikes. Think I'll take my chances with an old fashioned EMT that knows WTF they're doing. I can see the promise of the fast response time, but I'm afraid that misdiagnosis by the caller could lead to f'ups. Defibrillation of someone having a seizure rather than a heart attack, for example, probably isn't recommended.

Man Locked In Hot Car To Prove Babies Are Weak

artician says...

Lame. I get that it's a parody, but still...

Would have made the point better if he'd had a thermometer to reference.

Would have made the video excellent if he'd had a heart attack and the video was posted by a sad relative.

All in all, I seriously doubt he was in there for 3 hours. Probably just got out, sprayed himself down with a mister, and did the whole thing in 15 minutes, tops.

Who's weak now, bitch!?

NY Man Dies After Struggle With NYPD

Jerykk says...

These videos never show the alleged crime or lack thereof. The cops claim the suspect was selling cigarettes illegally, the narrator claims that he simply broke up a fight. If that's the case, why does the video not show either?

All the video shows is a man resisting arrest and having a heart attack in the process. One could argue that this wouldn't have happened if the cops didn't try to arrest him. One could also argue that it wouldn't have happened if he had simply cooperated. Because the video doesn't show what happened beforehand, we don't know if the arrest or resistance was justified. Context is everything and the removal of context makes it easier to push your own agenda.

NY Man Dies After Struggle With NYPD

artician says...

Tasers have caused so many heart-attacks in people that I would not call them safe, and as heavy as this guy is it could have killed him just as easily.

Tasers are not the answer.

VoodooV said:

another case where they keep using the wrong level of force. This is a situation where a taser actually would have been useful and would not have killed the guy, but nah, lets save the tasers for grandma, or the pet dog Spot.

I thought that was the whole point of tasers to be able to bring down a big guy like that without having to use chokeholds and other stuff like that where accidents can happen.

And that's ignoring the whole question of whether or not it was necessary to use force on the guy in the first place.

Dangerous Conformity

poolcleaner says...

F that S. I'm the first to react even when it's not life threatening. srsly... WTF is wrong with people! I know I'm a person too, so inextricably linked with everyone else, but I just don't understand this...

About a month ago there was an earthquake here in California and NO ONE in my office except for me reacted. Literally no one except for myself... that's crazy. WHY!

One guy was from out of state and this was his first quake. Everyone from the leadership of my team was sitting in a conference room nearby my desk, talking about how used to them they all are now; and this ignorant out of state man was saying similar things like "I was watching you guys to see how to react."

After crawling from under my desk, I ran into their room and yelled at them saying they were NOT being very smart and told the guy from (Pennsylvania?) that he should go under a desk if he's in doors and yada yada yada. He scoffed at me.

He scoffed my good advice. Ooooh, ignore the crazy person who actually knows what to goddamn do in an emergency. Why? Well, mostly because I'm an asshole -- but that's the thing, I'm an asshole when I'm right (or believe I'm right -- I am always ready for education when I am wrong).

Of course, as always, for being a contrary and vocal minority I was ridiculed. Office politics and trying to be part of the swarm will get you KILLED. God, you'd think working in a creative industry would weed out fools, but it doesn't. Same dumb asses every where you go.

I'm considering becoming a reasonable person, but goddamn high blood pressure. I need to calm down or I'll die from a heart attack -- caused by fools! Ahh, how fitting.

Ridicule me after I save your fucking life, ingrates.

Clueless Old Guy says Clueless Crap

VoodooV says...

and would the troll gallery be saying this if McCain had won and had promptly had a heart attack, leaving Palin in charge?

judging all women on the basis of being a woman is about as discriminatory as it gets.

I'm sure BillO isn't that stupid, he just knows who signs his paycheck

Hawaii Plane Crash Caught On Tape

SDGundamX says...

Oh God, birthers are going to have a field day with this one.

The one person who died in the crash was none other than Loretta Fuddy--the person who confirmed that President Obama's Hawaii birth certificate was real.

Apparently she survived the crash, got her life vest on, and was floating outside the aircraft waiting for rescue when she mysteriously died. No report on cause of death although since she was 70 I don't think it is too much of a stretch to think that the shock of the ordeal might have caused her to have a heart attack.

Still, autopsy results have yet to be revealed apparently....

How To Order McDonald's Secret Menu Items

yellowc says...

Neapolitan shake seems perfectly reasonable, you're not really changing the amount of shit your ingesting, it's just 1/3rd of each flavour.

Mixing up different meats and all that is just gimmick, no one actually eats that shit other than for a laugh. My friends and I ordered a Double Triple Cheese Burger (6 patties, a lot of cheese), just to say it really. Guess what, the staff have heard everything a million times, they don't laugh with you they think you're a moron and they make you your stupid request so that you might get a heart attack sooner and not bother them any more.

P.S. It tasted terrible.

Science teacher got surprising results from McDonald's diet.

RedSky says...

My guess would be he stuck to zero calorie drinks and avoided fries.

Had a quick on their nutritional website, a Big Mac is 520 calories, which is not great but not absurd. The issue is, you add a large fries (500) and coke (280) to that and you've added exactly 150% more calories on top.

All up being 1300 calories or about 2/3rds of your daily intake in one meal. Provided you avoided the sides though, it wouldn't be too hard to stick within the limits.

The issue is that MCD makes the minimum mandated attempt to educate customers. Australia legislates that food energy levels be published in a prominent fashion alongside the rough recommended daily energy intake of 8700kJ. They usually publish most of these on the side in small font. Having been over in France recently they didn't have them, I'm sure that's the case in most countries.

The larger issue with MCD and other fast food is the use of trans-fats and excessive sodium.

Trans-fats act as an insanely effective preservatives that keeps their produce looking like it'd been cryogenically frozen even years on. They're also have a reputation for clogging arteries causing heart attacks, strokes and the like.

Sodium which boosts blood pressure when ingested is a flavour enhancer which is probably why it's used in excessive amounts (e.g. a Big Mac has 40% of recommended daily Sodium). Even if this guy kept within calorie limits he would have easily been breaching recommended Sodium levels and in the long term would be elevating his risk of high blood pressure, stroke or various kidney diseases.

Amazon Prime Air Service - 30 minute Amazon Deliveries

oohlalasassoon says...

I'll fill in a few et ceteras:
-noise pollution
-visual pollution
-dog & cat heart attacks (although that's a good name for a band)
-dangerous return policies
-the absurdity of dildos delivered in this fashion
etc... etc...etc.

Just because something's possible doesn't make it a good idea.

So many potential problems with this.

Security while traveling in airspace.
Getting FAA clearance.
A collection of plastic delivery bins that are not as easy to recycle as the standard corrugated cardboard boxes.
Theft of really, really cool quad copters.
Battery life of quad copters probably really limits the radius of travel for deliveries.
Amazon would have to build way more processing centers, making costs go up.
etc...etc...etc

Jon Stewart Goes Off On Chicago Deep Dish Pizza

shagen454 says...

Only thing that bothers me about Chicago deep-dish is how "fashionable" it has become (I'm looking at your SF) when really, it is no-where near as good as a thin, crisp slice of super greasy New York cheese. In SF there are tons of these places masquerading as fine-dining when the corner "New York" pizza shop down the block, playing metal to their pet cockroaches whilst stoned out of their minds make better pie for less.

One "slice" of Chicago deep-dish and I feel like I'm going to fall asleep from a heart-attack.
