Platystemon posted:It’s social pressure. More or less everyone is susceptible to it. I get that and I even admit that I'm susceptible to it. I don't wear a elastomeric because of that, though I'd probably consider it if I was using mass trnasit or lived in an apartment building. But KN95s, KF94s, and N95s all do a great job and other than getting occasional looks because the straps go around my head instead of ear loops I've never seen anyone respond in any way to that type of mask vs a cloth or surgical. There are upgrade options over lovely masks that don't require the wasteland look.

I know some mental disorders gently caress with your pattern recognition in ways that make you see patterns that aren’t there, but I also know that most people are shockingly bad at recognizing patterns. In the middle, the sensible cspam poster, who screams and froths about how stepping on rakes and rake handle to face collisions are highly correlated, and how this relationship between action and tragedy can be decoupled without the formation of a series of exploratory committees into the utility of future studies of rake and rake-face injury dynamics.

mawarannahr posted:I got the secure click and I didn’t like it at all, so it sits on the shelf as backup for the future. too heavy. what’s a 3m model that isn’t like that? I prefer the 7502. It's idiot proof and positive/negative checks are very easy. Want to like the 6502 as it's lighter but find the positive pressure check less convincing compared to the 7502, and it makes me doubt whether I've got a good seal. Negative pressure checks are great though. I'm sure if you've been trained to use masks and/or know what you're doing then it's fine.

What are people's thoughts on the Envo Mask? Most of the reviews I can find are from nurses and seem to be overwhelmingly positive. Unfortunately for me I only trust anecdotes from users of long forgotten web forums.

I would like it very much if the good people at 3M would do a little more to emphasize the “line the lines up” lines on their filters and masks. They’re there, but even knowing that and looking for them it still feels like more of an easter egg than an advertised feature.

Random chud on Facebook posted:I have drug through this week. I have been just so sleepy all week. It is not lack of sleep. I just haven’t came back online yet. I would say that I am running about 80% and about 20% of me is gone and I don’t know where it went to. I declined to drink any caffeine tonight other than the sodas that I brought to work. It is just like drinking water, it doesn’t help at all. Well water will help if one is dehydrated but I am going to the restroom too much to be dehydrated. I bought a lemonade tonight and one of my coworkers said that is not going to help you stay awake. I said neither is a $3.50 energy drink either. It is just of non effect. poo poo, maybe pretending vaccines were a 100% effective silver bullet and then continually moving the goalposts afterward wasn't such a great idea.

FunkyFjord posted:i have no idea who that person is but i can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that they are 100% a profession hopium manufacturer. But the whole point of my second quote, the one labeled "WSJ posted", is that the very same Wall Street Journal that ran that piece of garbage simply gives up their op-ed writer as a paid know-nothing shill when you just click on the URL buried in her byline. You don't even have to speculate. Her bio data simply tells you. Back in the day, I took a couple of "Application Security" short courses. When you see a course with a title like that, what it really means is "how to hack websites, particularly corporate websites". But it all seems a bit pointless when they leave the crown jewels just sitting there .....

yoloer420 posted:What are people's thoughts on the Envo Mask? Most of the reviews I can find are from nurses and seem to be overwhelmingly positive. Unfortunately for me I only trust anecdotes from users of long forgotten web forums. Got an EnvoMask while still trying to keep a lower profile and it's truly very comfortable. However found maintaining a good seal challenging when moving around the lab, looking up and down over equipment etc and eventually just replaced it with a half face elastometric to get a robust seal. If you know what you're doing wrt masks they're likely a very good option. If you're like me and just bumbling through mask stuff without any training because suddenly everyone needs a respirator to be safe in society then you might want an easier to use mask. Keep in mind nurses likely receive some actual mask usage training and get fit tests, or at least hope they do. mystes posted:This thread is doing its best to prove that wrong You guys are mean

CBC Radio had a segment linking the decline in “keywords signalling Rationality” in English language books, according to some study, to the advent of Facebook, and I don’t know what the gently caress. They said the trend started in the early 80’s but the key date was 2007. I’m not sure what Liberals are trying to do here, it’s such a bizarre angle. They said more people are communicating in language about what they feel instead of what they think, and distrust expert opinion and rational arguments at odds with their feelings. They had experts on who talked about how people embraced science and rationality after the Industrial Revolution, believed in the march of progress etc. but then have lost faith in their lives improving, the political system, experts etc. and are less receptive to the messaging. I want to say that it’s because everyone’s material conditions are declining, and so there’s less buy-in to liberals saying everything is great. That I understand, what I don’t understand is what liberals are signalling to the CBC Listener demo - that facebook has made people irrational and the neoliberal consensus is still triumphant?

They said the trend started in the early 80’s but the key date was 2007. Liberals think that technocracy is what has always existed but the idea of 'we trust the apolitical experts' really only got rolling in the early 1960's with Kennedy. Successive presidents like Nixon and Carter used the executive branch to reallocate power away from democratically elected offices and into appointed bureaucratic organs answerable solely to the capitalist class. It's a relatively new phenomenon. Guessing that a broadly similar thing happened in Canada in the 60's/70's, since it happened everywhere else in the anglosphere.

Steve Yun posted:What N95 retailers are still in stock and not backlogged? I wanna suggest some to friends Home Depot is out of Auras but they have other N95s in stock, though all the ones I looked at had exhalation valves. I'm now at the point where I'm angry about people caring about the valves though. Because gently caress anyone that cares more about someone wearing a mask with a valve than they do about someone only wearing a cloth mask, much less dicknosers and non maskers.

I got one of those cute Dentec Nx-MD valve-less masks to try and it’s not great. The entire face piece is squishy silicone. The only rigid part is where the filters attach. This makes it hard to position and tricky to get a seal. It’s also annoying to check the seal because touching the filters makes the face piece change shape and breaks the seal on the bridge of my nose. Do not reccomend, glad it wasn’t expensive.

How long does one usually continue to test positive on rapid tests after COVID infection? My wife got COVID 11 days ago and just finished her 10 day isolation. She says she feels 100% back to normal and has been 100% since day 7, but she did a rapid test and tested positive just today (a faint line, but still positive). Is it safe for her to come out of isolation, or should she wait until she tests negative?

This is kinda frustrating as a poor. I will never know when would be the right time to just go all YOLO and max out my entire credit cards. Too early and I'll be bankrupt and homeless before society collapses. Too late and either I'll never get all of the various stuffs because there isn't any left anywhere after society collapses.
