Yeah XR and Apple fans, and futurist types in general, are sometimes a bit hyperbolic.

I’m not immune of course. I work with it for research, which requires some notion of potential, but that also means being aware of current limitations.

I recall a tour guide at the armory museum in Boston describing accounts of (presumably well-to-do) armor wearers showing off their suits’ mobility by doing cartwheels. Still difficult to imagine, but yeah fighting in clunky armor sounds like it could easily be more dangerous than none at all.

That makes sense. I suppose that’s what plate was for?

Anecdotal but a kitchen I worked at used it for shucking oysters, i.e. specifically to prevent puncture of skin.

Not among them, just wanted to add that early-model platform HMDs have often functioned as dev kits, one way or another, and it’s reflected in the enterprise-R&D price point.

For example the HL1 and HL2 were similarly priced. Rift and quest sets were exceptions only because they were preceded by the OG DK1 and DK2 headsets prior to buyout.

Basically these pricy early-model headsets typically aren’t aimed at the average consumer.

Hey hey, I’m not the same commenter from before. Also I was agreeing not disagreeing. Just wanted to offer useful tips, that’s all.

When correcting error with expressions of anger, it helps to name/define the behavior or idea you wish to condition against, to demonstrate why it hurt you or is otherwise personal, to do so proportionately, then to stop being angry quickly after they apologize/acquiesce.

One egg is enough

This is the joke. Absurdist hyperbole only works with a shared assumption or common sense to play against.

If there’s an intended target of this joke, it’s definitely not medication. It would be the inscrutability of the wording of that clinical guideline, which seems to imply morality is divergent but can be cured with stimulants.

Three sheets to the wind

I agree. I don’t think people should be expected to do all this to be treated like they matter in a society. I do it because I don’t want to go back to living in my car, but the process offers me daily reminders of how our system is thoroughly rigged in favor of commercial interests and against the human who wishes to live as a human.

No joke, once you start structuring your life as a business, especially as formal corporations, the amount of financial, legal, and professional advantages, opportunities, and protection that appear are incredible. For example, did you know that …

1. … as an S corp, you can “pass through” the profit and loss of your business, such that your personal gross income excludes business expenses?
2. … the employer match on a 401k account is considered a business expense?
3. … the actual annual cap on employer contributions to various retirement vehicles are in fact much, much higher than employers are typically willing to offer you as a benefit?
4. … the terms of commercial factoring, mortgages and loans are often far more agreeable than consumer equivalents?
5. … many of the places where you shop offer discounts to business accounts (and not just for volume, simply because you’re a business)?
6. … it’s considered normal/SOP to request edits to many types of agreements individuals are expected to simply accept without question, including leases offered by landlords?

This is just a sample. Most endeavors and many functional aspects of personal life are by design simpler, safer, more scalable, and more profitable if planned and executed as a business rather than an individual in the late great United States of America.

I resolved it by installing an air purifier in the bedroom where she vapes. But agreed, her vape isn’t invisible (though I think some e-liquids are) and OP didn’t mention so it’s low probability in this case.

My partner’s vape triggers ours https://www.kidde.com/home-safety/en/us/products/fire-safety/combination-smoke-co-alarms/KN-COSM-IBA/

Does anyone in your house vape?

I’m curious about this. If demonstrable, it seems many Canadians could sue.

What is the typical user workflow? For example:

1. An embedded Adobe applet (e.g. fill, sign, and submit on the government website)
2. Token-based API (e.g. redirect or spawn child window/tab, user fills and signs on adobe site, user returned to government site)
3. Something else (e.g. upload button with server-side validation for digital signing)

Edit: looked into this a bit. Did you receive an error message like the following?

This document does not allow you to save any changes you have made to it unless you are using Adobe Acrobat Standard DC or Adobe Acrobat Pro DC

(Regardless it’s totally shitty that government websites recommend a specific company’s software, especially Adobe. I’m just trying to figure out if they actually force citizens to pay a private company.)

Estate tax reform and/or UBI

Sure thing! Yeah the type I cert is an easy choice, same as 609 MVAC. If you’re considering the trade, you might choose universal (I, II, III) to save time. Exam is longer, closed book, and proctored, but not hard.

Among skilled trades, HVAC is notoriously demanding physically (especially residential, where you’ll spend a lot of time in attics and crawl spaces in hot weather) but consensus on hvac forums is that pay’s good and you’ll never be out of a job as long as you take care of your body.
