I just quickly read the bot TLDR, and assumed the best intentions by the poster… I forget myself at times.

‘Vaccines were from the height of the pandemic‘. I believe they meant that since these doses are 2-3 years old, and the virus has mutated several times… these destroyed vaccines are ineffective at this point. Not that vaccines in general don’t work.
“he spun off the company Second Sight with three cofounders in 1998”
The rest of the sentence from your quote. The company that put these implants into people was, from what I understand, indeed for profit.
Sounds like he won a magical monkey paw from that weird stall at the fair that nobody else seems to remember.
Try NATO style watchband. Come in various widths and are pretty durable.
Muggsy Bogues, too. Though I don’t think he won a dunk contest.
Ill add GCompris to your list, not knowing what basic skills are lacking. Also for others who want to start em young and avoid this issue.
Simple x chat claims to be what you are looking for.
It’d be nice to be able to use whatever messaging app without having to have other people switch too. In other words, I haven’t tried it, but would like to.
Nor do they feel empowered to find a job they are good at or want to do, improving quality, efficiency, productivity, etc. because the job they have “has insurance benefits”. Even if it’s pure misery.
That or when people assume you’re your kids grandpa. I’m only 40, just…so… tired.
Then it’s a journey you are both on. There is no victory, only constant vigilance. Stop being in the position where ‘only one’ is even an option.
I say this having seen my sister go through this too- fortunately more successfully than my dad.
Good luck man, find help. If not for her, then for you- it’s won’t be easy going alone.
My dad chose the booze in this scenario. From tenured university professor with a family to dying alone, homeless, on the other side of the country.
It may work, it may not. You are not (hopefully) the only one who wants to help her. Find the help, don’t take on the burden alone.
Don’t make a threat you are not ready to follow up on. If you go back on your word, then she can too.
If I recall my terms right it’s vasogenic shock. Essentially pipes without enough fluid and thus not enough pressure make the pump go wonky… so, yea, havoc wreaked. I’d say you’re accurate there.
They are so cold because there is no coal to keep them warm… much sadness indeed.

I’ve used these for years, not constantly commuting, but used a fair bit. No usb, only battery power, though I can’t recall the last time I had to swap them out. Well sealed from the elements, I used mine in many rainy trips. And bright!
Mine are 10+ years old and still go, here’s hoping they’re still built well.
Ah, well… I pinch.
One company who is currently practicing power shutoffs, which was the question.
Also, they made this choice after several big fires started from their infrastructure- while they were on some sort of corporate probation for exploding a neighborhood because of… faulty and under maintaining infrastructure. Not exactly a one off.
PG&E, the power and gas company for much of California does this. As a for profit company, they outsourced maintenance of their infrastructure to save money. The infrastructure was old, not well maintained or managed and it sparked several large fires over the years. They’ve paid lots of money in restitutions because of this. Now they shut off the power so they can’t be blamed for starting giant fires again…
‘An old wives tale’
