They cost more

Just put a cork over the stinger

Then what though? I need food to eat.

Could this be a reason to start wearing face masks again like during covid times? If you have an illness it should be more reasonable to do so too.

30 mile commute? Fuck that! I hope you are hybrid at least

I spent hours improving a website to the point first page load was under 100kB from previously multiple MB. Don’t think anyone will care about or appreciate my work.

I hope somewhere there was someone on a low end device and they experienced a short load time. But it is near certain that I spent more time optimising it than will ever be saved on loading times for a small business site.

Working in support I get to do both.

Left: Investigating a customer issue and find a bug but its not the cause of the customers problem

Right: Investigating a customer issue and find a bug that I can blame for this ticket

I am British, I know most shops sell pans that will need to be replaced within a few years at most and can’t survive being touched by a metal spoon. But Le Creuset is French, there used to be a British manufacturer of non enamelled pans but they went out of business, not sure who else there is but haven’t had a reason to look since as I don’t really need any more pans right now.

Maybe a small to medium size pan could be nice to get, got a large, extra large and very tiny one.

I like wood chopping boards and cast iron pans. Neither should be machine washed unless you like damaging them unnecessarily. As I am cleaning those by hand, adding a couple of plates isn’t really much extra effort.

Perhaps tried to and then realised

What is that? Seen it on someone’s wall near me too

Sure, days of the week are just a thing we made up. If you want to can call it Friday. Its all made up, other than some humans, nothing else cares.

Also dishwashers are huge, and then as I don’t have like 50 plates that it would take to fill one I would need to get a lot more of those. Probably the same for spoons and forks. Would take over a week to fill it too.

Then it still doesn’t help me from cleaning because of all the things that are not washable in a dishwasher. Plus the plates are the easy part and least in need of automating.

We have a rimworld community for questions like this.

Now picturing a McGregor to Parkside to Ryobi to Bosch to …

Massive stack of battery converters that ends up looping back round. Now you can take any tool and any battery and just split the stack where necessary. Of course if you want to go Parkside to McGregor you are going to have to have every single adapter in the stack.

People hire bikes for a commute? I only ever saw bike hires as something you might do on holiday or a trip somewhere. Not daily.

Everyone thinks that you are supposed to go to the hospital when you are dying

Do they? I often hear of people wanting to die at home if they have the choice, there is also hospice care. Hospital would only make sense if you have something that might be possible to treat, at least at the point of deciding to go.

Glad to have the NHS though, so there is no cost to worry about. Pretty sure you can get cremated for under £1k, you don’t need to get a gold plated box.

Implies that you don’t deserve to live. But they also make a large number of cheaper ways to live illegal. Buy some woodland away from town and live in a tent or caravan? No, can’t have you doing that.

I hate how the batteries are always incompatible with every other tool except (sometimes) the ones by the same manufacturer. Its tempting to get a petrol generator instead and just use corded tools.

Just give your landlord a burner phone number. Don’t even clean the jizz stains when you leave.
