For sure they help me keep me inside (not that I ever needed any encouragement on that) because I farking despise them, especially considering my prescription lenses.

Because they steam up?
Tiny drop of washing up liquid, rub it over both sides of both lenses, and then buff it off. It leaves an invisible layer of detergent which lowers the surface tension of the breath droplets so they form an even layer over the whole surface instead of microdrops which "fog" them up. Lasts about two weeks.
Try it: after buffing breathe heavily on them and see what happens.

Tried multiple times with different detergents, didn't work.

Not to keep you trying everything in sight, but rub on a tiny bit of bar-soap and spread it thin. I've done that for bathroom mirrors (in cooler weather) to keep them from fogging due to showers.
Not all detergents (as in the liquid stuff) are the same and few of them have actual soap in them as it's unnecessary for their intended (grease disrupting) purpose.

Learned a bit of shaving soap can also work...

Try them with hearing aids.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Hearing aids and glasses and mask Oh MY!
Fortunately, I only wear glasses driving and they stay in the car.

They're a pest for sure, and they certainly are no silver bullet.
But they make a big enough difference to make sense.
And besides, it's rude towards others not wearing one indoors in public areas.

Correct on every account, that's why I try to avoid going in public crowded or indoor areas.

That makes two of us, I'm also lucky enough to have an employer that supports working from home during this epidemic.
I actually need to ask my boss before going to the office, just to make sure there aren't to many people there.

Same situation, and I'm loving it - no more 3 1/2 hours commute each day, yay! My productivity is sky high.

Wish I could say the same, I hate it, I have a serious procrastination problem, there's always something else that needs to be done

I do too, but having flexible hours means that I am not constrained to a particular rhytm and it's great. Also, procastrinating while at office is limited, at home it is not: I can easily sleep an hour in bed and return fresh and motrivated, or play an entire morning a videogame that's catching me and work all afternoon with a great stride. And when I have something to do (groceries, fixing stuff, laundry...) I can do it when I feel like it - one day I tidied the entire house in the morning and rebuilt the network in the afternoon, I never have that much energy when I come home at night or during thne weekends.

Yeah I know, except it doesn't work like that when you have kids, especially now when they are home the whole time.
They're seriously driving me crazy at the moment.

Coming home from work and having their "papa, papa" was a counter medicine for the day.
Having them the whole day "papa, papa" when I am trying to work... it's driving me nuts.

I can absolutely see the day when things go back to "normal", and there's still going to be this small group of SJWs insisting that you're a murderer if you're not wearing them.
I predict we're going to see some people with such weak immunity systems they're going to be taken out by the common cold.

Now watch people misconstrue what I just wrote. I am a believer in masks. For the current situation. But not from this point forward until eternity.

Never tried. Some of us oldies never created a Facebook account.

Agreed. I don't see the point in it all.

There's a great point to Facebook if you're part of the company. But I also happen to see that as "being part of the problem". Because IMNSHO Facebook is a problem and we would all have been better off with it not ever seeing the light of day.
Never had an account, and never will.

I don't trust Facebook login for 3rd parties. I assume that I'm giving them some kind of access to my Facebook account when I do that, and that's the last thing I want to do...

I want an HTML5 wysiwyg editor I can write articles in. My modem is dying and it might be replaced tomorrow but i'm sick of editing articles on this website with this editor, especially since my internet has been cutting out and causing it to lose my work when i submit.
Mind you, aside from a couple of really glaring bugs that frustrate the heckin elephant outta me the online editor here is not actually that bad to use. Or wouldn't be if I didn't keep losing my work.
The only reason I use it is I haven't found a replacement that doesn't frustrate me more than the current solution.
I'm not a webdesigner, and I don't want something Adobe would have dreamed up. KISS.
