Depends who they define as “customers”, probably. The little people using the stuff aren’t customers, in their eyes.

Especially since you are going to experience an infinity of time either way, so time dilation doesn’t really matter in any appreciable way. If that’s the big corruption, that’s totally workable. One would also assume you aren’t entirely alone there, if it’s a facility.

Any garment can have a pocket if you sew some cool fabric to the outside!

As long as I don’t turn into some tiny prey lizard, sure. I wanna still be able to play video games.

Even their animated stuff is superb, getting both right at the same time is huge. I hate Apple, but credit where due.

I can be asleep at AN 8-o’clock, but will be neither falling asleep nor waking within at least an hour of either of them.

If you learn to read while paying attention to your peripheral vision, you don’t even have to sit to do it, you can go for a nice walk and enjoy the day, while still mostly ignoring reality!

My man’s definitely got one of these bad boys clipped to his belt. (Yes, the blades fold up)

It’s so cute! I want one here! We’d for sure use it frequently, but more importantly it would mean we have trams!

Not technically, but they got expelled for it, so yes.

As someone who wore nothing but superhero flip-flops through the entirety of high school in the Great Lakes region, yeah it was neither practical nor particularly socially acceptable. But they flashed lights when I walked. I never had light-up shoes as a little kid, and these were marketed for “kids at heart” so, tradeoff. 🤷🏻

I don’t know about this device specifically, since it seems a bit too specialized for plausible deniability and I’m not really sure what the regulations surrounding this specific market are, but a lot of times not being available through insurance is actually an effort to keep costs down for the uninsured and underinsured, as medical devices are regulated much more strictly than things which can be purchased by anyone who wants one, and meeting those regulations and undergoing testing and whatever else is super expensive.

All those weird “as seen on tv” gadgets are that sort of thing, where you go “who is that even for?” because they show able-bodied people using them so as not to imply the thing is a disability aid.

How awkward are they to use?

I tried to get security to approve using that or something similar for work, but nope. Too sensitive of a job to allow that much access, I guess.

I tried messing with the flags in chrome to allow dark mode default natively as well, but that broke a bunch of stuff, instead.

I do use that stuff on my own devices though :)

Very possibly. It doesn’t even necessarily have to be always, like there are medications that cause sensitivity to light as a side effect.

There isn’t really much to be done about it, unfortunately, other than learning to recognize what triggers it and doing your best to avoid or reduce exposure to those environments. But even that can make a huge difference. I try not to drive at night for the same reasons you do.

Maybe pay attention to the actual light levels from the window and see if brighter days are more headache inducing. In office buildings it could also be from fluorescent lights, those are horrible, especially if you can see the flicker.

I had a job in which I was seated at a computer in front of a window wall facing southwest. Like I was facing the window to see my computer. I wasn’t right next to said window, but it was the entire wall so it genuinely didn’t matter. There wasn’t really anywhere in our office that wasn’t looking at that window wall.

I’m photophobic (aka abnormally sensitive to light, it causes pain and headaches) and lemme tell you, I hated working there. Even sunglasses didn’t help in the afternoon, and I’d go home with the worst headaches.

I dislike light mode for the same reason even if it’s less extreme. It’s just so much light. I hate that it’s the default for websites and there’s usually no option to change it.

Got in a literal fistfight in middle school using that first one. Pretty sure they didn’t understand it, and lashed out from ignorance.

Oh good, I still have room for more! For a while I was caught up to my age and got a new one every year to celebrate, but then I got old and took a bunch of the more irritating ones out.

Edit: oops, it says nose. Missed that. Disregard.

Unless I was the one presenting, definitely a laptop. Can’t very well take notes if you can’t see what you are doing.

I find it much easier to believe ICE are lying, and these things aren’t actually happening at all (which has been the case with the footage we’ve seen from similar claims) but that’s all good stuff too :)

I’d be happy if the narrative they are pushing was actually true, I just don’t think it is. It’s too consistent to be real.
