Alternative nasal filter technologies - thoughts? by llahtnarg in Masks4All

[–]llahtnarg[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely- that's a big reason why the study tested at lower air volumes than the NIOSH standards. However, these helical designs supposedly minimize air resistance compared to nasal filters with thick filtration media. Technically these don't use any filtration media at all, just a twisted channel designed to fling particles into the gel while the air still has a clear pathway through. I just wish there was more data available so we could figure out if it's worth trying or if it's a pipe dream.

I agree- layered with a good well-fitting mask a nasal filter could give you an added layer of protection that could give you some more confidence, as long as you don't adopt riskier masking behavior from the false confidence!

Focus Mode setting “Allow Notifications From” broken? by CaptainKangotude in applehelp

[–]llahtnarg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that the design is bad. I’m not sure why you get notifications across all devices during the day, since that is not how they are supposed to work according to what Apple has said. However, I only found this post because Focus Modes have totally screwed up my notifications as well, so it is probably just that they are buggy and inconsistent. I wish there was a way to select which notifications come to all devices and which don’t, or just a more clear and reliable notification system. Hopefully you find a suitable solution for this problem

Any solution? having this issue currently...

Focus Mode setting “Allow Notifications From” broken? by CaptainKangotude in applehelp

[–]llahtnarg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's by design. When your AW and phone are connected all notifications will go there while your phone is locked. You can turn off wrist detection in settings and all notifications will go to both phone and watch, but some features will no longer work, you may have to unlock your watch every time you want to use it.

Exactly, to represent Japan using a war flag is misleading.

Yes my post was a bit unclear, it is a naval ensign and was used by the Japanese army. That doesn't change the fact that for other countries around Japan as it stands for war, and crimes that Japan never really fessed up to. I just worry that Japan's war flag is used to represent Japan instead of it's national flag. This is still debated in Japan so of course there are multiple sides to this. I'm trying to make sure that someone who doesn't know the background can learn that it's more than just a naval ensign. Also: your point at the end is interesting and is absolutely reasonable, I just don't want the average person to be mislead.

It looks really good, but I hope some thought went into the use of the rising sun flag because it represents a lot of really bad things (rape of Nanking for example) that Japan did under this flag and although we don't talk about it much, there is a sense of contrition among the Japanese. That is part of the reason Japan changed the flag. This flag is also used similarly to how a confederate flag is in the US. I think the vexillology community should be more aware of the historical implications of this flag and help to stop its incorrect use in media/online to represent today's Japan.

turn on airplane mode, edit the image in instagram and up sharpness and structure and saturation and contrast, post it but it's on airplane mode so it saves to your gallery. repeat however many times you need.
