COVID-19 projects

hahah no we are expecting the shipment from the factory to us this week. The chips are programmed and in syringes and sterilized, we just need to get them through customs, tested, and kitted before shipping to customers. Sorry for the delay!

Can I pay in instalments :rofl: or even an arm or a left :rofl:

Is that a challenge? I bet you could get it in there with two 00g needles. In all honesty though would you be willing to make a video of the install process? Not like a tutorial, but something where we could see what were getting into.

Are you still going to be able to ship while on lockdown then?

The extra delay just means more time for me to second guess (and triple guess, and quadruple guess) my decisions about where to install things when they get here. I can be *gulp* patient…

Good luck with your patience.

Hahah well it wasn’t meant as a challenge, but basically you will need to make a 20mm wide incision to fit this thing so it’s likely going to be a scalpel with dermal elevator work and sutures to close. Not an easy install.

As far as I know, deliveries are still being made, so as long as DHL and FedEx are still operating, we will be getting the goods and ship out orders soon.

New stuff is cool. Are you mostly looking at different forms, or are you experimenting with the chips / tech?

Any chance you’re taking requests?
Can you be bribed?

Seems like all the places around here are trying to make the UPS / Fedex driver go through a waiver process every time they show up. Just a few minutes, but when you make hundreds of stops, it kills time so hard.

Plus, the added “stay at home and order stuff”.
Delays may happen.

For me, mostly it’s tinkering with various things… some of which are chemicals and resins, and other things are antenna shapes and other various ideas… I also have a different kind of chip here I’ve been wanting to dive into but haven’t had time or desk space… but soon I will. We are actually in the middle of moving house and I have built out a larger workbench at the new place so I should be able to be a bit more organized and get more done faster… only my moving help is no longer helping people move due to the virus, so the move is happening slowly and will be taking up a majority of my attention until well into April. I just got this little flexEM experiment done before ripping apart my lab completely, so experimenting is on hold for a little while as I get all this stuff set up in the new place.

hah like what?

Like… the places the driver is delivering to? What for? Are the local shops wanting to be sure the driver doesn’t come back at them if they get sick or something? That seems… pretty fricken lame actually.

55hz LED. It’s a dream of mine.

Yes. The form is stupid stuff. Have you been out of the country. Do you have a fever, etc. etc.
The kind of thing that happens when lawyers get involved in fairly mundane matters.

It’s worth noting, I’m talking about industrial facilities with shipping and receiving offices.

so… retain them longer, force them come into close contact with others for extended periods of time, have them touch common office items others surely have touched and possibly even put in their mouths, like the ends of pens… got it.

Panic defies logic. I take the situation seriously, but some of the freaking out I see people pulling is just… WTF? dude?

#OMG you are killing me / us… You are such a tease

I legitimately would if I could…

My work has stopped all international travel except in critical circumstances… I planned a month long Trip to The states.
I’m pretty sure Defcon and helping Amal move would be classified as critical, No harm in asking.
DefCon with 25,000 people in one place should be easy to mitigate and an easy sell…
So Amal, if you can wait until July -August I’ll give you a hand :wink:
Before I catch Covid at DefCon :mask:

Unlike NFC, I’ve never had any problems getting my RFID glass implants read. And I have no need for long-distance reading. So I’m struggling to get excited with that one :slight_smile:
