    afaik battery socks don’t have radios. It’d be really fucking costly and really easy to spot if they snuck one in.

    I had hoped the joke would be just as easy to spot. 🕊️

    But in all seriousness, I am in fact paranoid about having non well-known batteries strapped to my sometimes sweaty feet, within fabric. If I can decrease the risk of a house fire by .1% by having cold feet a bit longer, then I’d easily incur that discomfort.
    Moreover, because I believe the likelihood of World War 3 is increasing, I want to rely on luxury products even less than I was before. I already haven’t used heating for 2.5 years, and last month I turned off my boiler, so I’m showering cold. The contrast with battery-powered socks would be too absurd.
