Fortunately/unfortunately, they didn’t get bought by Amazon. I only say unfortunately because they made a lot of business decisions expecting it to go through, and when it didn’t, has caused them a ton of trouble. They seem to be hanging in there pretty well and this current gen of bots seems to be pretty solid. I’ve had iR stuff for over 20 years now and have generally only had good experiences, so they’re still my go-to.

I just bought one of the new 705s that has LIDAR and it’s been pretty fantastic. Most of their new lineup has LIDAR now and it’s been pretty good compared to my old j7’s vSLAM. I’m really not a fan of them being app based and hope that they’ll eventually work with Valetudo, but with 2 huskies and cats I just really don’t want to have to manually vacuum every single day.

I wonder if they just hired too many and the effects stacked

Unironically, this was exactly how the announcement at my old company went. Literally, someone getting paid millions of dollars a year basically saying “Yeah we made this decision on vibes alone”

That’s kind of an insane gift for a first date given how expensive cheese is.

I thought that’s what his eyes were, and the lens just reflected the energy back into the “energy dimension”?

Eventually, yeah. I had an issue with contacts when I was younger as I have to wear thick toric lenses, which allow very little oxygen through. I would wear them way too long, and I was warned that continuing to do so could cause eventually cause blindness

Part of the issue is that speeds are set nonsensically here and in certain areas they’ll literally be set to randomly drop on a small section of road solely for the purpose of giving out speeding tickets.

It honestly blows my mind how these “leaders” get paid billions of dollars to run their companies into the ground because they have no fucking clue how real humans operate.

It really does make a huge difference. My friend’s parents are the same age and are relatively young, in their early 50s. His mom smokes, and looks even worse than the left image, while his dad isn’t even in great shape but easily looks 10 years younger than her at a minimum.
I also know someone who stopped smoking and after a year or two she looked significantly younger, it was kind of crazy. Didn’t even really make any other significant lifestyle changes tbh.

It absolutely does. Typically, all 4 wheel speed sensors are polled and averaged, so unless you’re doing lots of extended 4 wheel burnouts, you’re talking an incredibly small margin of additional error.

At a minimum they went along with it. “I was just following orders” is never an acceptable answer.

The one thing I will add is that the soul searching isn’t always visible, which was what made it so hard for my family/friends to understand when I came out. To them, it seemed like a very sudden and “snap” decision, when the reality was that I had spent years at that point reflecting and doing soul searching, but was so terrified about what it meant and how they might see me, I never told anyone about it.
I definitely think that this dad did a solid job overall, and even as an adult transitioning in their late 20s, I would have loved this response vs how my parents handled it…

The Lightning has also been out for a few years now, so it’s not the “new” thing. Also, I feel like half of those cYbErTrUcK purchases were people trying to resell them.
