- Comment on Can enough solar pannels decrease the global temps? 1 week ago:
The worst part is that convincing people to use less is difficult even when it’s something easy. Let’s say for example that your dryer brakes and you need to replace it and up until this point you’ve been using either a standard resistive electric dryer or a gas dryer. Heat pump dryers are now readily available, of good quality, and use literally 1/4 the power of a resistive electric to do the same job.
If we could convince everyone to just only buy heat pump dryers from this point forward that alone would create a ridiculous drop in energy usage for drying clothes as it’s a very energy intensive task. But people don’t like things that are different and so convincing them to try it is very hard. I had to basically purchase one for my grandparents to get them to be willing to try it and now they love it but initially they were very strongly against trying
There’s also a bunch of dumb but sometimes arguments. Take LED stop signs for example one of the biggest arguments against them is in places where it tends to snow every year they say oh well they aren’t worth it here because when it snows they get covered and if you put a heating wire on them to melt the snow then you’re not saving any power over the standard ones. But it’s like hello rub a couple brain cells together unless you are somewhere where it snows 365 days of the year you’re still saving the power whenever it’s not snowing which is a pretty drastic amount of power across an entire city or state.
I could sit here and give examples all day but suffice to say convincing people to use less even when It ultimately results in a better end result for them is exacerbatingly difficult

- Comment on Anon wipes his ass 4 weeks ago:
Unfortunately flushable wipes are not flushable. If you actually read on the packaging what they mean by flushable they just mean that they are saying it won’t clog your specific pipes.
however will not properly break down in the sewer and absolutely do still cause giant clogs that sewer workers have to manually tear apart. Which I mean makes sense just think about it a wet wipe literally has to be wet from the moment it’s created and packaged while it sits in the store and after it gets to you and still be usable. It obviously doesn’t break down in water or else it would just be debris by the time you opened it

If you go rural enough and you find the mom and pop Christian own thrift stores you can still get those kind of deals.
Just recently I went to such a place and I got five stainless steel large (4qt) spice jars and a bunch of silverware for like $7 total.same things woulda been like $15 each at goodwill

If you don’t do Thanksgiving then this is honestly viable. Literally the only reason my big ass of an exists at this point is for a turkey because even though I got one of the probably largest countertop air fryers I could find where I can fit whole roasted chickens and do baking and other stuff it won’t fit a whole ass turkey and I don’t think I would want one that could that would be just a little bit too much counter space
- Comment on Posting the shopping cart theory because people had questions in a separate thread 4 months ago:
Honestly for me it’s about was the lot designed by an idiot. Large stores like Walmart and home depot are the worst offenders. If I need to park in the far out of reaches of the lot there’s never any fucking cart returns there.
All of them are grouped up right near the fucking front of the store where it’s least needed, and then there’s nothing at the outer edges. I make sure my cart is somewhere it will not move even in strong wind, but the designers of the parking lot can go fuck themselves for not putting a cart return stall at the outer edges where it makes sense in those massive lots.
Other stores like WinCo and costco seem to have this figured out. Cart returns at regular intervals across the entire parking lot. So no excuse not to return there
- Comment on High Beam 4 months ago:
The problem is that nobody, apparently not even manufacturers anymore know how to fucking aim headlights. Headlights literally have aimer knobs and you are supposed to aim them such that they cut off just before they would blind the majority of vehicles
I have projector LEDs and with a projector lens you can get an extremely practically knife sharp cut off and I have it literally just at the very bottom edge of most small sedan windshield lines. It’s great my headlights are bright as fuck they go all the way from the left shoulder to the right shoulder even on four lane roads but they don’t blind anybody and I’ve had friends help me test that by just kind of passing each other on the street and them saying it was fine and wasn’t bad like other people’s cars

Some commuter Express routes operate on very limited stops so depending on when you got on you may very well have gotten on right before they hit the freeway and don’t stop till the next town

I asked that same thing to people that are somehow still playing Minecraft despite having been playing it since it was an alpha. I definitely played a lot of it but I can’t even touch it anymore I don’t care what mods you put on it
- Comment on Close call 5 months ago:
They get upset about it because it’s a trend in the industry that a lot of people hate. That particular series is a great example where the next game not only adds nothing but even generally takes stuff away from the previous title, but it keeps selling so it’s kind of becoming a trend in the industry for most series to just keep releasing the same garbage over and over.
So it’s less about enjoying a sports game that they are upset about, and more upset about encouraging the behavior of extremely low effort recycled releases constantly

I am the one that posted the question on that product, the answer came the next day. And I can confirm from having gotten the emails asking for answers to questions in the past that the email asking the question provides you an image of the item and description so even if the listing had been flipped it should have not shown them the dash cam in the email asking the question.
But yes sellers do like to do that to make reviews look good, he have to be careful to actually read the reviews to look for someone describing the product to make sure it matches

Have you seriously never just had that one moment where your hands were full and you needed the keys out of your hand for a second but you knew you were about to need the keys again shortly so you just put them in your mouth real quick so that you can do what you need to do and then grab the keys again
- Comment on Shits these days 8 months ago:
It’s a little weird at first but you very quickly get used to it, it’s now to the point that when I’m forced to use toilet paper that is now weird and uncomfortable. I have a fancier bidet that has a drying function which is essentially just a miniature hair dryer pointed at your ass but when I’m in a hurry I literally just use a hand towel.
Butt towels are surprisingly common for bidet users because you’re literally just drying water, the bidet has fucking power blasted any sign of shit away so the towel will never get any marks or streaks on it
- Comment on Shits these days 8 months ago:
It’s genuinely difficult going back to toilet paper once you get used to a bidet. It’s just so much better in every way
