kemikalkadet posted:Holy poo poo the execution of these is terrible. Wooden mudguards are dumb because there's no curve at the edge so they just spray water out sideways but i appreciate a lot of people like them for the look. Why aren't they made with a curve? Surely we have the technology to carve that shape.

At least they were nice enough to show you how to make your own, so you don't have to spend money on their stupid poo poo?

I'm pretty sure you could just use a clean sock at that rate. The sort that go on feet. Sounds ridiculous, but the notion is the same. Just pour your water slowly. In any case, it's not a new idea, people have doing that for ages without spending $32.

I've got a filter from Walmart I can use indefinitely and is compact enough for travel poo poo. It cost me 3 dollars.

Just buy freeze dried instant coffee like the animal you are. Depending on the brand you will actually get quite good coffee of it.

As some who uses delicately small purses and big ol message bags, those wooden ones look garbo as gently caress. I need a wallet/money clip, phone, keys, and emergency cosmetics for touching up my face. I bet you can barely fit a standard issue dildo in either of those examples. Like the only place I can imagine would worth having a tiny wood purse is some dinner party where it all gets chucked into a bedroom until 2 hours later. Can't take that into a club either, that's a weapon right there.

You know, as hard as it is to believe people were drinking coffee long before coffee filters were invented. Cowboy coffee is legit some of the finest coffee I've ever had. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tq7Si7cp2jM

Also they're shipped flat and the purchaser has to bend them to fit their bike, but that also means that they're customizable to fit every bike (which wouldn't be possible if they were curved). It's not a fault, it's a feature!!

Volcott posted:Why is small batch good? How does the fact that you only made something 3 at a time benefit me? The implication is that more time and care is taken over each individual one, the quality control is higher and finish ia better. I mean its pretty common and broadly true. But this is kickstarter so its garbage.

muscles like this! posted:That stuff has been around forever and it didn't work then. Yeah, nearly every awful kickstarter is for products that already exist. The TWIST for this one seem to be the thigh wraps, so you don't need to place the electrodes manually. Because electrode placement was obviously the part that made lazy people throw up their hands and give up. And somehow these wraps will fit your thighs perfectly during every stage of your fitness journey. That's why they cost $400, instead of like $40, lol.

Dienes posted:Isn't it also wildly uncomfortable if not outright painful? Yes. If a licensed physiotherapist uses the professional grade shocker things for rehabilitation or whatever because you literally can't do normal exercises, then it is painful. The normal exercise equipment is significantly more comfortable for patients that can use it. Consumer grade garbage used by amateurs is still painful, but much less likely to do anything useful. Using it incorrectly can cause burns or even temporary nerve damage. Luckily most people only try it a couple times for a few minutes before throwing it in the back of the closet with the other exercise gimmicks, so they don't get injured. Since the manufacturers know nobody is going to use the product more than a couple times they don't have to worry about build quality. Basically all the gimmicky As Seen on TV exercise equipment is much worse and provides less benefit than going for a 20 minute walk every day. People who can't follow through on a 20 minute walk every day will never follow through on using the ab blasster 9000 everyday, and so should just save their money.

There's also exercise 'bikes' and epilepticals that are tiny and made to stick under a desk so you can peddle while you work and those are basically infinitely better than the As Seen On TV trash because you're at least doing some small amount of cycling with them.

muscle stimulation is one of those ideas that SOUNDS like it should probably work but clearly if it can we haven't made it happen yet. maybe when we get to brain interfaces.

It works, it's just horribly uncomfortable all the way to painful depending on how you do it and takes way way long to work to be something you could just slap on for an hour a day and expect results. It's kinda like how yeah you don't really need to eat or drink anything the normal way, we can totally just hook you up to proper IV lines and catheterize you so you never have to move again. But that's pretty drat uncomfortable and the necessary replacements of each from time to time are painful too. That's why its something we stick with for people with major surgery or whatever.

Neito posted:Or chug some wheat gloop like some sort of dystopian post-apocolypse. Soylent is just a worse version of all the meal replacement drinks that have been on store shelves for ages is the thing, and it's really not that big. One of the funniest things is that a lot of goons have been like "maybe I should start drinking Soylent" or "I've been drinking Soylent for a while", and then when someone points out that Ensure exists, they're like "oh thanks I didn't know that existed, I'll just buy that". It makes you wonder how many other Soylent-triers or users are in the same situation, they'd never even checked if there was something in every CVS and Walgreens to go get instead.
