One that I haven't seen mentioned ever was neat flashlights in every hotel room I stayed in. They were all mounted to the wall, and had no power switch. The wall mount had a tab sticking out that separated the batteries, so when you went to use it, the batteries touch and make the circuit. They were always low power, so that you didn't disturb others in the room, and you have to keep it in its location to turn it back off. They worked well for going to the bathroom at night and not messing up night vision too. I tried finding one in the US, to no avail, but they're all over in Japanese 100 yen stores. A clever, cheap design.

I'll be paying 380 ish bucks for insulin this coming month, only using my "good, professional job" type insurance to cover some of the cost. It's around 200/mo. Cheaper to buy from Walmart directly without insurance than it is to process it through it at my required pharmacy. I don't know if the insulin caps have taken effect, or if I don't qualify, all I know is I'm getting screwed because I'm alive and want to stay that way.

The rest of the policy seems cool, but won't be if it pans out like the insulin crap.

To this point, the Tokyo skytree may be the most entertaining place I've ever been. You can see so much life happening all around, you can see how far Tokyo sprawls, you can see how large the breadth of humanity can be. If you intensely focus on one small spot of the city, you see a myopic little section, but then you raise up, and see the entirety of "Civilization". It's super impressive. I expected that it would be fun to see, and maybe spend 20 minutes up there looking around. I spent almost 3 hours just examining life.

I'm sure places like this exist elsewhere, Tokyo seems like the perfect place for it though.

What parts other than one stick of RAM aren't upgradeable on the t480s? The processor? I've seen screen swaps, touchpad swaps, keyboard, just about everything. I got one back in the summer, added a stick of RAM to get up to 16gb, it's running at 3200mhz like the other one, and swapped in a new OEM battery. It's been great. I also recently bought a e495 for around 60 bucks, it's thicker and plastic-ey, but also a solid Linux machine running an AMD CPU. Are the newer t14s really that crippled in repairability?

It's just a slightly different design on a standard flashlight. I was able to find this, seems to be a manufacturer of them. Hotel torch they do seem to be mostly for emergencies, but would work well enough to be a night light

Similar in that it's mounted, different in that it has no buttons/switches and wouldn't be on, or even able to be on when mounted. Those look pretty cool though.

I agree to a certain extent, the idea behind it is pretty awesome. I printed a bunch of grids and organizing pieces a few weeks after the original video dropped, and was pretty impressed by how well most of it worked. The rub comes in with the model sites being fraught with "bad" models that people have tweaked to suit their printers or the hardware they want to use so not everything can be used right away. That kinda thing is hard to measure on screen, in a mesh, so makes a lot of wasted plastic/time.

Bingo
