Maybe a government run service that reads your unique identifier and provides a simple adult:yes/no to the website. That takes the burden off the sites and keeps personal identification info in a publicly owned system.

Shoot I had some that were 4 to 16 MB. Might still have in a drawer?
My favorite was a tiny steel one that was 32 MB. Tough as nails and small enough to keep in a back pocket.

- Comment on What strategy would you use to estimate the number of hazelnuts 2 weeks ago:
The cup is about 13 hazelnuts high. The top circumference looks like it could hold about 24, the bottom about 20, so I’ll average that to 22.
13*22=286

My take on boomerifying is getting other generations to behave like the stereotypical boomer, not that they are actual boomers by birthday.

Yeah I agree, there is probably a bias effect here. That may or may not explain all of the difference. The one you’ve proposed makes sense.

Heartburn has only been a problem for me when I am eating too many carbs. This was one of my low carb phases so no problem there.
It definitely burned going down, but the real fun came the next morning on the way out.

- Comment on They'd just appear out of nowhere 4 weeks ago:
It is called a scintillating scotoma or ocular migraine. Scintillating is accurate; this clear crescent shows up in your vision and It is rippling with rainbow fringes. It starts off as a point somewhere in your vision, slowly expanding into a visible crescent that continues to expand. After about half an hour the crescent expands beyond your field of vision (FOV). For me it is paired with a loopy slightly lightheaded feeling that goes away with a whoosh once it leaves my FOV.
They are often triggered by bright light and may be correlated with migraines. I’ve had three of these happen but never had a migraine headache afaik.

Environmental SEMs do not require vacuum and can be used for nonconductive samples. The beam ionizes the air which prevents the sample from charging. Magnification is limited but it is more than enough for this.
You can tell it is SEM and not optical by the depth of field. An optical image at this magnification would have much less DoF so the peaks/valleys would be blurry.

No mention if it is waterproof so i bet it isn’t. Modular and waterproof are tough to achieve simultaneously.
