How accurate is that data? I have a relative who received different results from their family tree than expected. So they sent it in again. Different results. Annoyed, they sent on yet another test. Again, different results. Not slight either, entire additions and subtractions.
Wait. Why does it have ads? Aren’t you paying them for an ad free experience? If not, what’s the point?
You could return to sender what has addresses. And just return the junk that does not by dumping it in a blue drop off box, if you have one in your town.
Or do what others do, syphon off one tied off grocery bag of trash at a time each time you go to the gas station.
Or, fire pit.
How is this downvoted? You saved yourself the pain of shopping/hunting for adequate yet affordable crap and instead created a quality item you actually like.
This is the antithesis of fast fashion.
Because people aren’t broke enough.
Excessively harsh for who? Rabid dogs who wrongfully claim to be men?
Damn. I didn’t think they used plastic back in the day, I assumed it was a modern thing. Well. You know what they say about assume. Thx for the correction.
That’s why I said it depends on how light your prescription is. The husband has coke bottle lenses and cannot do glass. But he has to use the case. He has to use a special cloth to clean the lenses. He has to check against cleaning chemicals. He has to be very careful or they scratch, doesn’t matter what “special coating” is there. Those lenses do scratch up.
I’m less than -2 in both eyes so the weight doesn’t matter so much for me. I drop mine on the (bacterial lava) floor of a patient care area and I can grab whatever industrial, don’t use bare hands, wipe is available to purge the lenses of bacterial and viral load. And then stick them loose in a pocket with keys, pens, loose change, scissors, and they come out after a couple hours of that scratch free.
I get hit in the face. For decades. And decades of dropping them on concrete and everywhere else. No issues, breaks, or scratches thus far.
What are the stats on that? Are they a reality for the curved milled glass lens? Or is it a falsehood used to sell planned obsolescence lenses?
I’m been smacked in the face and dropped them multiple times on concrete, industrial linoleum tile, and hardwoods. Never even seen a crack. I’m sure there are things that can do so, like an airbag exploding in your face, but I can’t imagine shattered broken milled plastic not being dangerous as well.
You have to ask for glass. They bury it in favor of the garbage that scratches up over time.
Are you wearing distance lenses for up close tasks like reading and tapping into Lemmy? There’s evidence that says forcing your eyes to do that through distance lenses speeds up eyesight degradation.
That’s because they’re glass lenses. The plastic whatever crap is just another form of planned obsolescence.
You pay more initially, and have to look around more for it, but glass lenses hold up. Drop them. Stick them in your pocket with your car keys and pens. Clean them with whatever. Lose the case on day one. And they stay scratch free. For years.
Granted, this is only tenable if you have a “lighter” prescription.
I remove mine for close up stuff and thus my prescription has remained the same for over 20 years. I get new glasses not because the lenses scratch up, but because the frames break. I average new glasses every 8-10yrs.
Glass lenses.
GrapheneOS. Faraday bags. Depends on you and how far you want to take it. And how much you like and rely on dynamic maps.
It’s cool when these companies get subpoenaed. Then we all know exactly what data they keep.
Proton had a recent subpeona they had to honor. All the data they had was yes, the dude has an email here. But no content. Granted, if you’re exchanging with a gmail account, it’s moot, for those exchanges anyway.
This is really simple. Use Signal or WIRE. Proton or maybe Tutanota for email.
Avoid garbage like Telegram and FB Messenger. Discord as well.
Steam, Kindle, Audible, what was that movies site?
Jesus, that’s the basest of bacterial soups he’s basting in. That’s sewage and corpse water.
Necrotizing fasciitis isn’t a single bacteria. It’s a bacteria gone wild such that the tissue dies under the stress of it. This guy’s feet and junk are in that mess.
Horrifying outcomes may happen.
I’m replaying Baldurs Gate for the first time in, what, 20 yrs? EE. As old and basic as the game is, I can either tap the tab key once to flash a silent light up of everything lootable in the room and leave it at that. Or. There’s a button to click on the side bar that just leaves it on all the time.
This is the way. I don’t want to go all Witcher or do that god awful Dragon Age 3 search with that pulse noise. No annoyance. No sprained pinky. Just one click and done.
