Statistics showing just which nations engage in the most cosmetic surgery demonstrate the rather impressive lead the likes of South Korea, Brazil and the US have over everyone else – something admittedly evident from looking at the less than natural wonders each of these nations is so blessed with.

The chart is adjusted for the relative population of each country, and based on UN and International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery data as assembled by The Economist, explaining why the USA’s clear lead in absolute numbers (3.3 million procedures in 2010) is overshadowed by the impressive per capita surgery rates some of the more vain nations enjoy.

Unsurprisingly, South Korea comes out on top, although even this may not reflect the full extent of Korea’s love of plastic surgery – survey data found as many as a fifth of the women in Seoul have been under the knife.

The popularity of different operations in each nation also varies dramatically; Brazil sees seven times more buttock enhancements than the average, and five times more vaginal alterations, whilst Greece sees ten times more penis enlargements – perhaps the better to further shaft German taxpayers, it might be thought.

What is "plastic surgery" for the "hair"?
Do they transplant new roots of hair into your skin?

Yes... yes they do actually. exactly that. Click here if you are bald

And now for a jab at how annoying journalism is:

THIS?!?! is what they got from that chart... really?!?!?
What about the fact that US is actually number 6... they just FORGET to mention Greece... and Italy... and Colombia... WHY? because it sounds cool when they say US in the first three even though it is number 6.

Actually, I'm rather impressed that US is number 6... The article is more impressive BECAUSE the US is number 6 and that these other countries have more operations done.

Even so, India is extremely populated and at the bottom of this chart. GJ India for not caring! Ya honey badgers!

    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats

    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
