Well, theranos was total fraud giving out incorrect results.

The one I had (which is most common) has two parts, calcium and oxalate. So definitely milk could be one side of the coin, but you can't cut out calcium altogether because your bones need it. The list for each side of the coin goes on for a bit (not too much nor too little of this or that in your diet over possibly a decade).

If I have a second kidney stone, then the doctor said they'd have me pee in a bucket over 24 hours to see if they could get a little more exact on the cause. But what if I had been going through a 2 pound bag of spinach from a big box store (oxalate) or had been binging some ice cream (calcium)? Wouldn't that throw off such isolated data?

Anyways, this device could be an interesting "peeing in a bucket" type data collection over time which could help isolate which side of the coin my kidneys are having issues with.

cool, I'm a registered sex defender myself.

hahahah it might be as well the reasons behind kidney stones aren't fully understood still, some people may develop them without any history of previous disease's or family members affected by it.

if skipping milk reduce his symptoms (or at least works as a placebo), all the power to him!

I'm going to see the Saints of Testicular Torsion this weekend. Should be a good show.

Exactly. If you saw the average glossy screens on a cheap Windows laptop even just a few years ago, you'd want to instantly smash them. Garbage 200 nit (if you're lucky) 768p TN panels with low contrast, glossy coating only made them even harder to read. I have an MBP 16 for work and while the screen is good, I still prefer the gorgeous AHVA 1080p 120 Hz matte panel on my personal laptop. So much less eye strain in brighter rooms.

Rent, childcare, and food. I spend 18k/yr on just getting my toddlers care while I work.

This is the kind of domain experience I needed. Thanks. Im gonna go bug my wife now.

I can barely afford food and my tech company friends are texting me asking if I can front them $50 so they can make ends meet because their contracts aren’t being paid out on time.

Nobody has money for a VR headset, even if everyone wanted one.

I guess tastes differ, I have been gaming on the go a lot, and from my experience usually there isn't any use for a big laptop "on the go", it's a pain to lug around, you mostly don't have a lot of space for it in hotels etc. and usually you aren't on the move to game but for other reasons (vacation, business, school trip etc.) and then you don't really mainly game but do other things most of the time, so you could do it as well on a smaller laptop.

And if you really just want to play games at a friends place or something you might as well bring a monitor then, if you are already considering a 20"+ laptop.

I guess maybe if you are in the military or similar and spend a lot of time abroad or something a big laptop would be nice. (But again, if its a long term but temporary position, why not bring a big monitor)

Speaking as someone who once unsuccessfully tried to fit a 24" monitor in a carry on suitcase:

What on earth kind of bag are you carrying around with you that fits a 27"monitor?

pathetic. You can get a 21 inch screen from ACER if you want something for serious gaming https://www.theverge.com/2017/5/22/15672294/acer-predator-21-x-review-gaming-laptop-9000-gtx-1080

Not after last night it won't.

I mean yes and no, but you're on the right track. Assuming the toilet told you, you'd know. So that counts as knowing.

The thing I think of is that big corporations can be notified of what's in the water and then can get ahead of a massive lawsuit. Forever chemicals etc... The stuff the dr.toilet won't show the consumers but will sell to big companies for a shit ton (pun intended)

Tony the toilet buddy already exists.

“Ohhhh yeah, that’s the wayyyy.” “Gosh, you’re sooo bigggg”

No shit, I learned this joke 30 years ago.

My partner’s father swears it’s milk that causes his.

For now. Eventually this will be in every city maintained sewer and they’ll be able to figure all this out about us without our consent anyways.

I game on my lap with a 14” laptop, but I don’t play games requiring a mouse.

I used it, and it ordered $52 of groceries.

And then I sue my doctor for not telling me to quit drinking cleaning chemicals

lol i caught that too. somebody taking the piss

I'm one month out from passing my first kidney stone. Father has had several, but I drink way more water than him so thought that would help. The advice I was given about how to reduce the likelihood was all over the place. There are many ways this particular stone was formed. If this device analyses potential levels of stone forming stuffs, I'd buy one!

AIOs are the go-to form factor for enterprise workstations. I buy a few hundred per PO for deployment and I know that I'm not Dell's biggest client that does this, by a long shot. Dell especially has perfected the art of making them modular (to an extent) and serviceable (completely) to guarantee uptime. They also come with the benefit with not having to buy specific attachments from furniture and office system OEM's to accommodate the separate box. They can also act as a docking head in a pinch without any excess equipment acquisition due to the proliferation of USB C.
