Damn. I want an ap that when it detects these glasses, makes them play a loud/ high pitched noise that makes them uncomfortable to wear and users take them off.

My friends mom has been trying the opposite- shes trying to avoid buying any plastic packaged food. Not so much out of concern for microplastics, but as a way to reduce her environmental impact.
Its also helped her eat much healthier- most candy is out, all her veggies are fresh instead of frozen, fresh meats instead of prepackaged ones, etc.

On of my friends gfs did that back in the day.
The crew was going to a local punk concert, and she was generally a bit more straight laced.
So we were all a bit surprised when she showed up in a red wig, and leather, and said her name was Jackie. We were joking about her maybe thinking we all had 'punk names… that we just all used all the time because we were always dressed a bit punk.
We all go back to the house most of them relived at to crash, and wake up in the morning to them fighting, and her accusing him of sleeping with Jackie. And him being like ‘I thought it was just a bit of role play!’
He goes into the bathroom, and she comes out to the kitchen and wete all just like, really, we all knew it was you the whole time… also your tattoo was showing…

Idk about the forensics part. Were probably talking strychnine back then, which os pretty obvious because it causes muscle spasms and people to contort up and stiffen up pretty unaturally.

Generally, when looking at a vertical representation of horizontal space, we think of the top as further away from the viewer, and the bottom as closest (think the graphics on your stove letting you know which know goes to which burner… the back burners are the top ones, and the fronts are the bottom.
The only reason to have the faucet appear as closer and ypur hands as farther away is to intentionally make it loom dirty…
…Unless this graphic is telling you to stand on the far side of the basin and wash someone else’s hands for them.

I was thinking no fatal but feel able. Seems like I was way overestimating the ability of sweat as a saline solution conductor to pull power away from the pole and create a shock on the bits below though.
- Comment on Home renovations 1 week ago:
I think there is potential for some non lethal zapping if done right (one terminal to the poles other to ground)
Your skin is where most of the body’s resistance is, and electrocution / shock can occur at much lower voltages if applied internally/ to a cut.
There’s an urban legend about a navy Electrical engineer stopping his heart by trying to measure his internal resistance with a voltmeter- he stabbed one probe into each of his thumbs and the portion of a single volt the meter uses to test resistance going across his heart was enough to cause afib.
Now, with pole dancing, theres some potential, for a sweaty bikini to make contact with both an electrified pole and the interior of the dancer’s labia, conducting enough electricity to impart a noticeable shock.
No matter the voltage though, I think the main problem is the body being part of the least resistive, or any, path to ground. Unless the screws holding the bottom of the pole also protruded through the downstairs neighbor’s ceiling, and you run the negative wire out your window and into theirs, connecting both ends of the pole to the battery…

A friend of mine got addicted to heroin in highschool. He bought 200 btc when it crashed down to $2 in 2012, and shortly after, his parents sent him to rehab for a month, and hid his computer somewhere on the farm, never to be seen again.
When it was worth around $10m we searched the entire premises, with no luck.

I live in a state that has a rule that essentially all ‘outdated’ laws that use gender are updated to be gender neutral.
A couple years ago, someone pointed out this caused a bit of a problem in our beachside town, as technically the town bylaw that prevented women from sunbathing/ swimming topless, now read 'All people are banned from having exposed breasts and ripples in public, with a 75$ minimum fine. (Including men)
The two women who brought this to town meaning proposed a simple update, strike the old rule, and replace without everyone can be topless around the beach, but must be covered up down town. After all, its was 2023, and the Puritans had gone extinct as a religion 280 years ago.
This sparked a hilarious 2 hours of public comments.
My favorite was one lady getting up and being apoplectic about the thought of having to explain breasts to her grandsons and appealing to everyones sense of modesty. Her friend then got up, and was just like ‘didnt I run into you on <whatever foreign vacation resort laazt winter? Not only were you topless, your bikini was so small your hoohah was falling out all over the place!’
People kept forgetting the ‘no gender words’ thing, so theyd propose a rule to sneak around the gender issue, that read something like ‘no person may expose female nipples’, and the town councilor would very dryly read that back to them as "in practice that law would read “no person my expose human nipples”. All you’ve done is shift liability if someone helps another take their shirt off.
At one point, someone got smart with, “no Non-Dormant human sexual reproductive organs may be exposed in public” (meaning men’s breasts were okay)
Town council thought about it for a minute, and just said “that sounds an awful lot like 'youre allowed to sit on a bench down town, fully naked, as long as you dont get an erection.” "More seriously though, while that law doesnt fail the test outright, it is most guaranteed to get hit lawsuit and struck down before we ever get to beach season. "
On bro got up and claimed if the town took away his right to hop into his topless jeep, shirtless, to go on a beer run, he’d ‘take the law into his own hands, every day it was sunny out.’ Madame Moderator, as she prefers to be called, countered with “well then…” and “I believe i spea k for the entire town, when say I sincerely hope you never grasp any part of the law!”
Eventually we settled with “all people may be topless on public property within <town name> except where prohibited for reasons of sanitation or saftey” boring, but a win. I still have yet to see anyone topless outside of the nude beach. Well, Besides a coue female friends who lgo skinny-dipping whenever we have a night-time beach party, but the old laws werent exactly stopping them before, either.

Back in 98, dad managed to reach me on board an intercoastal flight (bos to LAX) from a small sailboat heading to the bahamas. He was on a VHF and hailed a passing cruise ship. Their radio OP had i think a shortwave, and was radio buddies with some ATC guys in the Midwest. He reached out, and one of them went on the air asking if anyone in his airspace was flying BOS to LAX with an unacompanied minor. My plane responded, a stewardess came and got me, and I was able to talk to my dad for a few minutes before we went out of that tower’s VHF range (I guess)
- Comment on Is history about to repeat itself? 4 weeks ago:
If might be talking out of my ass, but I vaguely remember there being something about road asphalt compositions being different- using more oil in the binder up north, to keep the freeze/ thaw from destroying the road, which also preventings the water from soaking i to it as deeply, making ice accumulate less, (more melted snow runs off the road instead of staying on the surface, and being less slick and adhered into the road.
The payoff being the extra binder makes roads breakdown faster, not to mention having them melt and become malleable under car tires if it gets too hot.
