  • Welcome to investor-stage capitalism where nothing is worth anything other than to the brief returns for the investor. If the investor has not made marginal profit it is time to kill, kill, kill, regardless of the product; be that a studio, a game, a food, a medicine, a house. Better burn it to the ground than risk any marginal loss. (Ignore of course the lack of product, content, value, etc that would actually entice someone to buy—the only reason a company should exist is to give money to investors—no product should come before that!)














  • Well if an animal sees different electromagnetic radiation frequencies than we do then it’s possible that our complexion would appear different (and maybe in some manner of pattern) to said animal versus a human. It’s possible our melanin responds in patterns that are noticeable under other em frequencies outside of what our eyes perceive as light. I imagine this could be tested with equipment sensitive to em bands outside human visual perception.






  • My experience is buy gear in response, not in anticipation.

    I don’t know what you’re planning on using your leggings for but in my personal experience of being a year round bike commuter in a place that sees all seasons and weather I only get items that I find I need rather than trying to anticipate what I might need.

    Why not give the leggings you have a try before returning them and see if they work out for you.

    Also not sure where you live but local climate is a major factor. Is it a dry high desert winter where there is no moisture in the air or a standard cold as fuck winter with 80% humidity making the chill penetrate into your bones? These are all things only you can answer. At the end of the day gear is only there to make the individual user comfortable for their individual use case—there is no one right answer.
