Hi I work in an adjacent industry and paintball guns are very effective in (temporarily) blinding these cams.
Also harsh cleaning chemicals like Windex with Ammonia will degrade the IR/anti-glare coatings horribly and will lead to unusable shots within a season or two.

Collared shirts aren’t even as bad a jeans for me. I can unbutton a little and be just fine, the jeans are pretty thick and have seams though. They can get uncomfortable quick.

For what? Sounds like they’ve found a solution that works for them.
- Comment on do most people really like the taste and smell of eggs? 4 days ago:
Same, not a fan of the smell but I love the taste.
I even get farm eggs from my mom, still kind of farty.

Hollandaise is so fucking good I could drink it by the cup.
- Comment on YSK that everything the New York Times about Donald Trump actually happened 5 days ago:
Our current situation really is the culmination of almost 70 years of rightwing efforts. It’s a long listen but worth checking out How Conservatism Won by Robert Evans. He lays out in a clear concise way “how a consortium of rich failsons got together to fund a network of right wing think tanks and shift American culture in a fun new direction. (note: it was not actually fun at all).” They’ve been very successful and those think tanks are now pipelines used to funnel ideological purists into powerful positions like our current Supreme Court.
The shadowy cabals the rightwing says are behind everything is classic projection again, they’re controlled by shadowy cabals of rich people. One of the primary ghouls/traitors responsible for the attempted overthrow of our government on J6 was Roger Stone, the same traitorous ratfucker who began his career working for Nixon and has a fucking Nixon tattoo on his back. It’s really impossible to overstate how bad these people are and they’re winning.
The coup was successful, they’re in power and if they don’t want to give it up they won’t.

- Comment on Is it possible to reverse pit a copcar before they pit you? Like if you know a cop is going to pit you on their right side, can you use your left back end to hit them first? 2 weeks ago:
Turn into the skid and accelerate is how you’re taught to evade/counteract a PIT maneuver.

Just hopping in to say that the RDR franchise is great and worth the money.
I’ve spent so many hours just riding around hunting or collecting herbs. One of the few games you can genuinely turn off your brain off and immerse yourself in the world.

For now.
- Comment on Shower Thought: The man, the legend, the one-man show 3 weeks ago:
Absolutely a horror legend outside of Star Trek. The Re-Animator trilogy , The Frighteners, Doctor Mordrid, Trancers, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. He’s been in a lot of really successful/cult horror movies, has avoided any metoo/political missteps and is pretty well beloved by fans.
You could have a con just cornering him and getting him to sign merch from all his work.
Truly the man, the legend, the one man show and the franchise is lucky to have him
- Comment on Digg launches its new Reddit rival to the public 3 weeks ago:
I loved the Screensavers! Those were good times, Call for Help, the Screensavers, TechTV News. It was a very transitional time between Cable TV and the Internet becoming connected in everyones homes. Probably very influential on me career-wise and I’m glad to have experienced it.

- Comment on Vienam Bans Unskippable Ads, Requires Skip Button to Appear After 5 Seconds - Saigoneer 4 weeks ago:
They didn’t say stop participating in society they said stop using Metas plaforms which is actually a really easy thing to do.
Unless you think Facebook/IG are society.
- Comment on I've never been in a situation where me having a gun would have made things bettter. 5 weeks ago:
I’m most worried about magat goon squads in lifted F250s rolling up in my inclusive small blue city neighborhood in a sea of red. Which I assure you I’ll “do shit” about. But if you have some brilliant tactical plan feel free to lead the charge.
Buying into antigun rhetoric is one of the biggest missteps “the left” has made in recent decades.
We have an authoritarian fascist state coalescing as we speak and there are still leftists advocating gun control. It’s a losing argument in the U.S. right now. I tell people as often as I can, especially my trans and bipoc friends; now is the time. Get a couple guns (a long one and a short one) and learn how to use them. Learn some basic first aid, you really just need to know how to stabilize someone. Start networking with like-minded people in your communities. The police will not protect us, they’ve proven they’ll happily club senior citizens to the ground and shoot any protesters in the face with rubber bullets while escorting a rightwing murderer to safety. Iran was a secular, liberal state until almost 1980 when they (mostly legitimately) elected an Islamist theocracy; it could happen here.

Summary of this thread: hey literally nazis are taking power and planning on putting marginalized groups into camps eventually, but also wanting a gun makes you a pussy you fucking degenerate just talk it out
- Comment on I've never been in a situation where me having a gun would have made things bettter. 5 weeks ago:
My government is currently converting itself to a crypto fascist authoritarian regime, I’ll keep my gun thanks.
That yall are even discussing disarming right now is suspicious.
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 5 weeks ago:
Ok, but that has nothing to do with putting the seat down or leaving it up.
- Comment on The Wall People 5 weeks ago:
Yeah the ones I knew (the kids) were pretty decent people. They mostly didn’t like the strict lifestyle and mostly tended to gtfo their parents home as soon as possible.
- Comment on The Wall People 5 weeks ago:
I knew some Pentecostal families like that. They didn’t call it anything but they definitely believed every child that could be born, should be. Didn’t practice any sort of birth control and had a half dozen kids over 20 years.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 5 weeks ago:
We have one particular brand here that does “Milk, ice cream & more” that has their milk in glass bottles. It’s this ridiculous super premium thick milk, I get some of the chocolate sometimes.
I think it’s about $6per (half gallon/4pint) which is considerably more than average but it’s like drinking chocolate ice cream.

- Comment on YSK that Elon Musk now hates California. He lives in West Lake Hills, Texas. He loves to visit Austin. 2 months ago:
I get what you’re saying but unfortunately $1M isn’t even that much money these days. Once you figure in a house, any retirement plans, vehicles, college funds, etc. A lot of people are “millionaires” on paper but still gotta make their commute every day and stick to their budgets. The reality is even with a million dollars, if you make a misstep or stop chasing you’ll end up in medical debt or homeless pretty quickly. Shit is brutal out here and capitalism doesn’t give a fuck about us.
But I don’t like introducing myself to the neighbors even if I’m only worth $10, it’s just awkward.

- Comment on YSK that americans can now deduce private jet expenses from their taxes 2 months ago:
I love it. They have more than they’ll ever need but can’t help but continue to gorge themselves. Half of them probably miss out on sleep or family or other healthy activities in their pursuit of more wealth. Financial obesity is a fantastic term that paints a very accurate picture.
