Reply to comment by DavoTB in TIL that Bromine is also used to sanitize pools as well as chlorine. Chlorinated pools tend to have a saltier "taste" by SociallyAwkward423
Based on my limited knowledge of chemicals (I mostly did equipment repairs, but still had to know my way around the chemicals), as well as knowledge attained from talking with customers, I believe that one of the big selling points of bromine is that it is much less harsh on the skin compared to chlorine.
I've never had a tub so I can't say for certain, but I also believe maintaining bromine levels is easier than with chlorine as well.
My bosses really pushed for bromine for all of these reasons, and probably more.
You could also look into alternatives. Some people run saltwater systems!

And less destructive! Chlorine eats up the seals and gaskets (usually from people putting too much and/or using powder).
Also bromine tends to smell less like chemicals (again, if used properly) compared to chlorine.

Surprising? No.
Annoying? Yes. I bought my occulus many moons ago, and deleted FB long before that. So to have to re-join the ecosystem to use my hardware is a drag, especially because I get my games through steam and not occulus.
I completely understand needing a login to use the occulus store, but I don't use occulus store I use steam. So I don't want to create a zuckerberg acount to simply use a device I own.

>No they aren't, nor have they for a while now.
Meta disagrees with what you wrote.
Article saying they are switching from requiring a Facebook account to requiring a Meta account
I also get a message on my Rift telling me I need a Meta acct by Jan 1st

Reply to I build the worlds fastest 3D Printer on a printed frame. The design is free, the parts needed are affordable and its easy to build by MattThePrintingNerd
Without something moving in regular speed (like a pendulum or something) and audio, my brain just sees this as sped up. I watched the video you linked and it all looked sped up too.
I'm not saying it is sped up, but without a control, my brain just can't accept that this is real time! Crazy stuff.
