It's September 1, 1986. You take on the role of forty-something Meredith Weiss, who returns from the big city to her quiet hometown. She exchanges her busy career at a software company to fill in for her dad, the local mail carrier.
During her two-week stay in beautiful Providence Oaks, Oregon, she runs into a few familiar faces as well as plenty of new folk. As Meredith, you get to decide who to talk to, who to befriend and perhaps even start a romantic relationship with.
Whatever happens, at the end of her stint she'll have to make up her mind: return to her demanding job in the big city, or stay in the town she grew up in?
If Razer's Project Hazel is effective, sign me up... if the price is right. I can almost assure you that if Razer comes out with their own (smart) face mask, pre-orders would be through the roof... and it would likely be their biggest selling product this year or... ever.
The thing that makes me feel like it will actually reach the market... is that Razer didn't just jump into masks with this concept. They responded to Covid-19 by manufacturing masks themselves. Those masks had nothing to do with tech, which is obviously what Razer is known for... so this could happen.
The effectiveness would play a factor as well as the price, but I think that it has the potential of being a huge seller regardless. Not only is it meant to keep your germs in while keeping someone else's germs out with its surgical N95 respirator... but it also has other interesting features.
These features include:
Active ventilation so you don't have to worry about that feeling of suffocation (in theory).
An auto-sterilization function... that uses UV light to kill bacteria and viruses while the mask charges.
Voiceamp Technology... that boosts your voice so it's not muffled.
I'm sure this is definitely going to add to that price tag, but it also has Razer's Chroma RGB lighting feature. What's a Razer product without RGB lighting, right?
This was a product presented at CES 2021... which was virtual this year (thanks Covid-19), but... my fingers are crossed in hopes that this product doesn't die in Razer Labs. Project Brooklyn, I'd be okay without... and I guess that's true of Project Hazel too... but it's a practical product that I'd actually buy.
It's that time again, I hope your Monday is off to a great start... sending thanks out to the essential workers doing what they have to do in order to provide the needs that keep our society going. At the same time, I have to give a thumbs down to the people going out of their way to make that task more difficult than it has to be. That makes zero sense, and we can't get back to a no mask life until the spread stops. There are literally people who don't seem to get it until they... get covid, and unfortunately, some of these people don't make it. Mask up and have a safe enjoyable week!
Xsplit was so laggy this week, I was wavering on whether to even do the M.U.M. this week. I'm going to mess with some settings and do some test recording this week, and if it still sucks... I'll just switch up. I did want to show that the W was obtained... but yikes.
Wearing masks stops the spread, so imagine COVID-19 if everyone acted accordingly and wore their masks. People are dying, people are losing their jobs, people are being evicted, companies are losing business, essential workers are getting sick, and that only increases the scarcity of everything when you think about it. It doesn't require you to wear it in your car, just wear it in stores and public buildings around others, and when you're in crowded spaces and areas where you will interact with things where the public, in general, will go (i.e. gas stations).
Not sure what type of mask is most effective? Take a look at this lab test from June, where the Florida Atlantic University researchers developed a cough emulator lab configuration to determine what the most effective mask would be. The focus is air droplets and how effective certain masks are, and we have the most effective masks in the test available for you w/ a coupon code to save 15% off. So take a look at the video to verify for yourself, and... let's flatten the curve.
Shout out to the essential workers representing and keeping things going on the frontlines, I even wear masks in the drive-thru or curbside out of respect (so I'm not increasing their risk). There are workers being verbally and physically attacked for wearing masks, and trying to enforce the use of masks in the workplace because customers are required to wear them in the store.
Sometimes the attacks stem from reminders to... mask up, sometimes they're just brought on by the sight of masks or the sign on a door or window. If you're one of those mask protestors, let me start off by saying... that's not cool and this pandemic is bigger than your wants.
You don't have to turn to violence because you don't want to wear a mask (to stop the spread), and it's only going to cause the unwanted thing to occur which are full-on lockdowns. The people defying every suggestion to mask up in buildings or around others outside, keep a safe distance, and sanitize... are the people that keep the spread going strong. That's like fuel in a fire, it only helps the fire spread.
If you don't want lockdowns, stores not allowing customers in or only allowing a few in at a time... while hundreds more are waiting in line, job loss due to businesses going belly up, (dude) just wear the mask. If a fire has nowhere to spread, it burns out.
