Mr Zheng, 47, was sent home and given three months to live.

During that time, Mr Zheng was in agony. Neighbours reported hearing his screams at night, according to local media interviews with his wife.

She claimed that three doses of the prescribed painkillers did nothing to relieve his pain.

A local doctor refused to carry out the procedure and the family did not have the funds to visit the hospital.

I agree with varyne.
What is the problem with people taking their health into their own hands?

Why? They have over a billion other people to care about, I don't see why this one should matter.

So what? They aren't human? It's government fault. They waste money on fake buildings. Instead of "Helping Them"

Because?
I believe you're old enough to use constructive criticism.

@Accname,
Thats because you're a fat shit with foul teeth sitting at your PC masturbating to brazilian fart pornos. You probably don't even see the light, if the money thats shoved up your ass wouldn't reflect the few sun rays that reach through the closed blenders. There are people in this world who cannot afford medical treatments. And those with chronic illnesses generally need help from multiple other organizations to be able to live. For every individual to pay a small amount into the health insurance pot is much more affordable than raising great amounts of money for when you're really in a pinch.
I really want to see you when you're old and sick and can't wipe your own ass and can't afford some help, to at least keep your dignity.
Excuse my rant. I guess taking Accname and Varine serious is just like saying Justin Bieber is a good musician.

+1 Yeah Well, even if they have work/health insurance "they would still have trouble affording any care" Not surprisingly, when "Health care cost too much!"

Because it is not my problem. So what happens if I get old and decrepit and can't contribute to society, let alone take care of myself? That isn't YOUR problem, or anyone else's, it comes down to the fault of me for not having managed my affairs properly enough to take care of what I need to. And I don't think you know how much you're actually paying for it, because it's not a 'small pinch', but whatever. You appear fine paying for it, great you live in a country where the culture wants that. I do not, and I don't want it, so don't sit there on your high horse and pretend like you're better than we are because you like to think of yourself as a philanthropist due to your mandatory taxation. I don't care about other people, they're affairs are not my problem and I sure as fuck shouldn't be paying for their medical care because they for whatever reason, maybe by fault of their own, maybe not, aren't able to.

I am asking what your problem is with people taking their health in their own hand, what are you, a lunatic?

Varine, how did you grow up to be such a selfish moron? Is it really too much to ask for a small amount of money from you to make someone elses life better? It's only funny when you say "don't sit there on your high horse and pretend like you're better than we are" because that's the image you're giving of yourself.

And why are you registered in a site called thehelper.net, when you clearly don't care about other peoples problems?

Giving money is certainly not "the only way to help poor people" You might need to help them help themselves! Well, If you don't want to give it's okay. But a little "Sympathy" doesn't hurt.

Btw: At least the government at the country "should do something More!" Instead of "Turning a Blind Eye"

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    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

    New recipe is Shipwreck Dinner - https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-shipwreck-dinner.193511/
  • Varine Varine:
    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.
