Jamie saying “don’t be lazy” after pitching the lazy man’s auto clicker is hilarious

[@athaancaellus]

I work for a company that monitors our mouse movement. If our mouse doesn't move for 20 seconds, it starts counting against us. This is just the tip of the micromanagement iceberg.

I’m loving these new Vat19 shows. This series is so bingeable.

That waterbottle would actually be useful for people like me who have adhd and don't realize when i'm hungry or thirsty, or often forget to drink water and refill the bottle. If it wasn't so pricey i'd gladly get it

That first product is something that we often suggest for people with narcolepsy. It can really help some people, and when you are driving you often fall asleep forward.

[@gabeangel8104]

To be honest, a product like this marketed to drivers is going to encourage people to drive when they are too tired to do so, thinking it makes them safe, when in reality you can crash in a micro-sleep without your head moving at all. By the time your head has dropped enough to set off something like this it would be way too late to wake you up without you having already caused the danger already. If someone is tired enough to think they need something to wake them up, they need to take a break in their driving. Driving tired is as dangerous as driving drunk and we wouldn't sell little gadgets to help people still manage to drive home when way over the limit drunk because we all recognise how unsafe it is!

[@witchy90210]

@@gabeangel8104 I am very well of this as I drove tired ONCE and after that I never did it again. 3 am, highway is effectively just trucks at that time. I learned quickly. However, I dont really think it encourages people to drive tired. Cuz think about it, people who drive tired often have not as many options to not do so. Particularly truck drivers when they might not be allowed to do so. And like I mentioned some people with disabilities still have to drive and they might experience extrme drowsiness and an alert to wake them up so they are aware of it and can then safely pull off to rest is far safer than the alternative. Most people with narcolepsy dont just fall unconcious, those people simply cant drive at that point, among other things.

[@gabeangel8104]

@@witchy90210 I'm sorry but anyone in need of a device to monitor their head dropping and scream in their ear to bring them back to alertness is not safe behind a wheel. The amount of time it takes to trigger the device and respond to the sound is plenty of time for an accident to have already happened, especially at any significant speed, even on an empty road. Let alone the fact that the startle reflex caused by being woken from a state of half sleep by a screaming noise in your ear is likely to make you jerk the wheel violently, which could cause the vehicle to go into a skid. And, yes, I'm sorry but it's not possible to market a product as being something that will keep you awake driving and then think it won't encourage people to assume it will make them perfectly safe to drive tired, and therefore they will be more likely to choose to keep driving instead of resting. I know there are situations, like people who drive long distance for work, who often don't have the option to rest, and they generally already have their tricks to try to help. If you want to help them then try to get laws changed. As far as people with narcolepsy, legally, they are only allowed to drive if their episodes of sleepiness are under control. If they need this product then they are breaking the law by driving and could loose their license. It's the same as being epileptic where you have to have been free of seizures for a certain amount of time before you can drive again. I was going to give you the benifit of the doubt thinking you ment that people with narcolepsy could use it in general, not in a car, but if you're trying to say it can help them drive, absolutely not,that would not be legal and could get their licence revoked on medical grounds.

[@XxZeldaxXXxLinkxX]

​@@gabeangel8104bro that's like saying seat belts make people drive more dangerously because they know they're more likely to not suffer serious injuries in a crash

[@gabeangel8104]

@@XxZeldaxXXxLinkxX put this through the testing that seat belts have been put through. Seat belts have been proved to actually save lives. In actual very rigorous regulated testing. There is extensive proof that driving with them is safer than without. When you have the same tests and proof for this I will be satisfied with it being sold. Right now though, it's, at best, a gimic being marketed as if it is a proper safety product. It has no proper safety standard testing and watching people in this video and others, test it, you can see that it would not pass testing to be classified as a proper piece of safety equipment in the way that seat belts have

I saw a thing recently where a study showed that on average companies that used the tracking software to make sure employees [mostly those wfh] are being 'active' save around $37k a year but a subscription can cost $100k or more depending on how many employees you wanna monitor. So yeah like....they'd literally rather waste money to try and force production than just let people be as long as their work is completed in a timely manner :/

[@gabeangel8104]

I can't say without knowing more about the product but I suspect the thermometer is for people who need to keep track of how their temperature varies from one measurement to the next. It could be handy with illnesses that last longer and need monitoring, but more likely for situations like people keeping track of their temperatures to know things like ovulation cycles (for example if a couple is having difficulty getting pregnant they often do this, or with IVF, or some people just like to be aware of their own body), and also people with long term illness or health conditions where temperature fluctuations can be important information to help keep track of the person's health. The app that reads the temperature probably also has options to keep records of readings, which would be easier than having to note it down somewhere else every time if it was something you had to do regularly. This is where products can easily get mis-represented when the people reviewing them don't read the full information or do enough research, but just want a fast and funny 'oh look, an over-engineered product we can laugh at!'

The mouse jiggler is actually helpful as my ma has gotten in trouble for being offline when she was stuck on the toilet or picking something up before the post office closed.

[@ClinomaticVixen]

That water bottle would actually be perfect for people like me who have ADHD/Autism. Interoception (feeling thirsty hungry ect) can be difficult for those of us with autism AND with adhd (which is super comorbid with each other) when we do finally feel the need to drink or pee can get distracted until it's to the point were its a "holy heck I'm so hungry it physically hurts" or "if I don't make it on a toilet in 10 seconds I'm leaking" or " wow I'm super dizzy and my head hurts and I'm cramping alot.... oh heck have I had any water today? I'm dehydrated ". Having something that reminded me to drink water and also track how much you've had would be perfect and a life changer, especially sense not drinking enough water on a regular basis can cause health complications long term! (Like kidney stones or disease, brain shrinkage ect)

The nasal snoring thing is made for people with sleep apnea....a sleep apnea machine is expensive so I am guessing it's good until you can get sleep tests.

[@georgia19801]

I doubt that would be powerful enough to help sleep apnea. My Cpap machine blows quite a lot of air and those little fans didn’t look like they would blow much ar at all.

[@Formoka]

I can kinda see the point of the water bottle with reminders as someone with autism and adhd. I often go into a hyperfocus and forget to eat, sleep, drink, use the bathroom; all kinds of pretty essential stuff. So having a reminder could be useful. But $70 and the water level calibration and intake measuring stuff is just way too much. I’d honestly rather just program an hourly ‘drink water’ alarm into my phone. There’s something resembling a disability friendly good idea in there, but it totally fails in execution.

[@blue_jm]

I have the mouse jiggler because my current client monitors my Teams status icon and they complained I am "away" too much. Their Teams is set to show "away" status after just 5 minutes and it's locked setting. When I am coding I may just legitimately stare at the screen for 5 minutes trying to figure out the code segment in my head before typing it out. Sometimes their Teams setup also just craps out and doesn't go back to green automatically after having been in the away status. Jiggler has saved my life since now I can be green all the time.

Throwback to that time when I thought my Not-A-cat cat was areal and was confused why it wasn't moving and I thought my cat was dead ;-;

[@xfacade_productions]

The biggest reason why companies track mouse movement now is because of, yknow, the big sick outbreak we had. People working at home. And I guess business' couldn't trust that employees were working at home, which, is understandable. Nowadays I don't know how many people work at home, I think a good amount of people still do, but I think most jobs you are allowed to work in office now. So if you can't work at home, don't

The nose wind thing is from dune

[@RialVestro]

So the anti drowsy device... I'll agree it should NOT be used while driving. That thing is not going to stop you from crashing or driving off the road and should not be marketed that way. But there other uses I might have for that thing. If it even really works at all. I have insonia, I don't always get the best sleep at night and have a tendency to fall asleep durring the day even when I have slept so this could potentially, if it actually worked, help regulate my sleep habits. Can you just send me that thing to test? Oh and the water bottle is absolutly the worst. There's an actual doctor who made a video saying if you just drink when you feel thirsty then you should already be getting plenty of water. The whole thing about you should be drinking 8 glasses of water a day is meant to be an AVERAGE not an exact amount you have to stick to. And because people don't understand how averages work she's actually seen people come into her office OVER hydrated because they drank too much water. Also because cups come in different sizes no one is really sure how much 8 glasses actually is people were drinking 8 of the largest cup sizes they could find every day and actually getting too much water. Not enough water and too much water can both kill you. Just drink when you're thirsty, your body already has a natutal way to regulate how much you drink, you don't need to follow any dietary advice from an app. Also fun fact, water does not just mean literal water. All liquids that we drink do contain some amount of water in them. I've had people question how I'm even still alive because they don't realize that and are convinced drinking anything other than pure water will dehydrate you. No it doesn't that's how I haven't dehydrated yet despite the fact I never drink water, cause I am still drinking. The only way drinking something is going to dehydrate you is if it's something humans shouldn't be consuming.
