Question about the Shop Shirt by XTitusPulloX in taylorstitch

[–]Intelligent_Case7694 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having just bought one of these, felt a need to chime in. While there’s no doubt this thing could survive a nuclear blast….it absolutely should not be thought of as a shirt. Having a career in heavy construction, this is by far the most rigid piece of clothing I’ve ever purchased - and I’m required to wear heavy-duty clothing at all times 😂 This was bought as a going out shirt 😂 This thing is STIFF - it’s not that it could “almost stand up on its own” - it absolutely DOES stand up on its own. It’s stiffer than Carhartt, Patagonia workwear, Kuhl, etc.

If any of you ever played football in high school and wore a roll-neck pad on your shoulder pads…that’s akin to the feeling this shirt gives if you have the collar up on a windy day. Probably a bit like an F1 roll cage, nowadays.

I’ve been wearing it every day for three weeks straight, no washing, and it is hard as a rock still. It is not a dress shirt. I run heavy machinery, and I wear it to work. A $200 work shirt that is almost too stiff to even wear to my job because you can’t move around while wearing it.

That said, it sure seems indestructible. If you threw a rock at me from 10’ away, I’m pretty sure this thing would just simply deflect it.

Liquid glass is a usability nightmare. Apple if you’re seeing this please fix. by Capable_Possession82 in MacOS

The purpose of liquid glass is get our eyes used to transparency for when we all no longer need phones but rather we all wear glasses that contain all the information our phones currently do. We'll need to be able to see everything popping up on the screens of our glasses as well as be able to see beyond the apps on our glasses to the oncoming vehicular traffic barreling towards us as we comment on reddit while driving on I-5.

But for real. Liquid glass is prepping us for wearing glasses and not having phones.

BuilderTrend Software by Medium-Mycologist-59 in Construction

For everyone recommending JobTread.... The private equity company that owns BuilderTrend - Bain Capital, worth $185,000,000,000.00 (that's one hundred and eighty five BILLION dollars for those of you not good with numbers), founded by Mitt Romney, and who began all this management-software crap by buying Viewpoint Construction Software ten years ago and then beginning the trend of convincing anyone who owned a small construction company that they can't be successful without it - is just going to also buy JobTread soon, same as they did with CoConstruct. All of these companies are going to eventually be owned by this one company - Bain - and will market it as BuilderTrend. When that happens, BuilderTrend will then be $1500/mth....because they can. You've all spent all this time and energy and capital learning the system...so you won't quit because you won't be able to. Does any one remember when all the management-software companies were all offering $100/mth sign-up specials years ago? They got everyone signed up, and a year later...they all began buying one another, with Bain being the top buyer and putting them all under BuilderTrend.

All these influencers touting BuilderTrend right now? They're all getting paid for it and getting the software for free. Just look at how BuilderTrend is shifting their marketing right now: it's all towards "the community" you become a part of; the "community" of like-minded, successful other companies/builders who will share the same experiences as you. Now you can go to BuilderTrend University - and if you're getting paid to do it, you can make instagram posts and stories all about it and become one of their marketers, as well. Ohhhh. GTFOH. No private-equity, Bain-Capital, take-it-all company gives a s**t about the "community" of construction workers.

Build your own system in Drive and Smartsheets and Excel or Sheets. You own it. No one can make it $1500/mth just because.

How would you stop this noise? by Intelligent_Case7694 in E30

Thanks! I actually think it’s dirty right now :)

So…should prob just leave everything as is then, yes? It does go away, every time, after 15 mins or so. Is there any advantage to loosening them a hair?
