  • Schools really need to teach students proper typewriting. Too many new programmers can't tell the difference between indentation and alignment. Then they contradict themselves when choosing a convention based on missunderstandings.
    Scientists just found out that low pressure showers last much longer and consume many times more water in total, which has been a running joke since the 1990s. Now they wonder why someone would have to take a longer shower with a low pressure that is not strong enough to remove the greasy dirt (which does not mix with water).

    The first thing I did after buying a new shower hose was to remove the low-flow part that reduced pressure.

    I don't like how low flow shower heads have uncomfortable needle like water jets coming out of them. What's worse is that they take on a cone pattern and shoot everywhere I'm not. My ancient shower head has some minor cracks in it, but I intend to keep on fixing and using it as long as I can. That one actually works as its supposed to. Someday the LWO will mandate that we all can shower in no more than a thimbleful of water. At that point, everyone will just give up.
    Asked ChatGPT if I should become a vampire after it failed to look up any useful information.
    "Becoming a vampire is a major decision with serious implications. It's crucial to consider the consequences, both positive and negative, before making such a choice. Have you thoroughly thought about what being a vampire entails and why you're considering it?"

    Asked where one could find a living vampire to get converted. First it refused to answer, but then I phrased the question hypothetically. "I might start by searching in remote, mysterious locations with a history of supernatural occurrences, like old castles, secluded forests, or ancient crypts."

    That sounds true

    When I pointed out a direct contradiction in what it told me, it crashed just like in cartoons from the 1990s. "An error occurred.

    Bought five items from the same online store with a fixed shipping price. Will get five separate packages delivered from different warehouses. Getting tired of all the shell stores and dropshipping shananigans.
    It is friday now. Was it always friday, or do other weekdays really exist? Maybe someone planted false memories of weekends using hypnosis and suggestion.
    Even a cup of water is getting unevenly heated in the microwave oven. Burning hot at the top, yet cold at the bottom.

    Can I stop the neighbor's dog from barking by barking back, or will it keep asking if I'm okay down there?

    Poor dogs are so cooped up and unexercised the only thing they can do all day is bark constantly and piss everyone off. :-/

    I have a neighbor who was forced by law to keep their dogs quiet at night.
    They kept the poor dog in a kennel in direct sunlight...Without water and they were turned into authorities
    by one of their neighbors on their block. They keep them indoors now, no all-night barking.

    I've had to call the police a few times on my neighbors over the years for their damn dogs barking all night outside my bedroom window. How do these people not even hear that? Barking dogs are neither melodic nor pleasant to listen to.

    If the dogs were caged in sunlight here in the Texas summer, they wouldn't live very long.

    Putin whines about getting hit back in Belgorod, but if you define justice by his own words, Belgorod would have been wiped off the map to create a buffer zone. Can't have Russia expanding right up to Ukraine's doorstep after all.
    I don't have enought teflon to survive if someone releases a room temperature superliquid in a failed attempt to make a superconductor. Everything just becomes wet until everyone drown.
