Took my daughter for a blood draw today and we got to use a vein visualization device for the first time. It wasn’t this exact model, but it was pretty similar: https://christiemed.com/products/veinviewer-models/veinviewer-vision2/

Maybe I’m just basic, but I was really impressed. Apparently it uses an infrared camera to see the patient’s blood vessels and then it uses a projector to display them on the patient’s skin so that the phlebotomist has an easier time finding a good blood vessel. Brilliant!

        Here’s a screenshot showing what the post looks like for a Lemmy user.

        What’s with the title? It’s just a tag and a URL. Tags do nothing on Lemmy and look awful. URLs in titles also do nothing and look awful. And what’s with the a escaped #-character? Is it to safely pass the title in bash-scripts?

        The article link is broken. And the multiple levels of crossposting just seems kind of… lazy.

        This is some next generation RE: FW: FW stuff.
