I know this guy at work who in casual conversation said he doesn't really follow any news. In another conversation he said he thinks trump should win because he would be the best for the economy and biden is tanking the economy... I tried to point out, that the economy wouldn't matter all that much if the president is leaking the countries nuclear secrets to our enemies and doing project 2025 stuff, but he had no context and so he didn't seem to believe me.

OMG thats crazy! I just started driving with a learners permit last month and it was raining on basically every drive here. I was wondering constantly, how the car knew pretty much exactly when it should wipe! I debated of sending it as a video idea to TC as it is right up his alley. Well I didnt need to! Gonna watch it right now.

Bone conduction headphones?

I just recently learned that this is a thing that exists. I've had a couple audiology tests that use these weird headphones with firm rubber balls where normally expect to see the speakers; the rubber balls sit on your temporal bone, and there's a metal bar the wraps around your head connecting them and giving them pressure to...

JohnyRocket ,

I got the shokz openrun pros just a few weeks ago despite considering them and other bone conduction headphones for years. I wanted them because I bike a lot and wanted to have open ears when listening to music. I quickly found the reason they are called openRUN, because when biking at anything over about 10kmh, the wind noise overpowers them so much I need to turn them to unhealthy levels in order to hear anything.

Another disappointment is that they aren't really bone conduction. They are just small speakers pointing directly into your ears. I partially bought them because I was excited about the tech, but they are now useless in my application and boring. I will probably sell them and get in ear buds with pass-through noise canceling and wind noise cancelation.

The hydrogen can only be inserted in solid form by hand

I have one and I would not consider myself paranoid. I go to school part time and have to login with different accounts on rotating computers. It is nice to have a password manager I can plug into the PC instead of typing it off of my phone or having to memorize it.

Indie anything as well as books, except textbook cause expensive and they are useless anyway, we just have to buy them for school and literally never open them.

What lunches do you eat on a weekly basis?

I'm looking for easy and cheap options for lunches on weekdays. I mostly eat deli sandwiches and hot dogs right now and I always feel like shit after eating them. I think I need something healthier but I don't have time over my lunch hour to cook anything too fancy. What do you all do for reliable healthy easy lunches?

JohnyRocket ,

I have a sandwich on whole wheat bread with some cheese, one pickle and a conservative amount of mayonnaise spread on the side that touches the pickle. Its been the same on average 3 times a week for 2 years.

I use Infomaniak, as they follow swiss privacy laws and had the cheapest registration for .ch when I registered it first.
