What are some *fun* rituals/routines you have with your personal air filtering gear?

I specifically want to know that you’re finding ways to enjoy wearing masks, taking CO2 readings, setting up air purifiers, etc. instead of being stuck on masks as a punishment/restriction that you’re eager to shed.

@fanf it's linked from the main Special:Preferences view (it used to be even more prominent but too many people kept accidentally clicking on it)

@Axomamma I'm willing to carve out exceptions…mostly around accessibility cases, translation, transcription. (Still while recognizing all the quality concerns, failure modes, etc.)

We find that LLMs consistently prefer resumes generated by themselves over those written by humans or produced by alternative models, even when content quality is controlled.

Horrifying.

NZ has signed up to dozens of these FTAs (Feudal Tyrant Appeasements) over the last few decades, under both blue and red governments. Most recently the TPP under the Ardern government. With full support from Dogwhistle Peters, Shame Jones and Winston First, I might add.

Over the same period, both objective poverty *and* inequality have consistently increased in Aotearoa. If these FTAs had any capacity to improve life fot ordinary kiwis, we would have seen some by now.
