That’s me. I appreciate the hell out of some enamel

I realize this is probably hilariously unrealistic but. I prescribe a kitchen remodel. They have all kinds of designs for folks in wheelchairs that you could use with just a regular chair

Another problem that would never happen with knobs!

How else are you gonna teach those lazy toddlers to cook? Smdh

That’s worse. Don’t make me pull my phone out of my pocket to change temp. Absolutely embarrassing that this idea got to production.

I live in Seattle, and this has been my experience. Techno-city powered by dams = reliable

It’s an acronym for Smalterie Metallurgiche Emiliane Guastalla. They’re actually a pretty high end brand, but yes, the name is amusing

If there was a problem with the wiring, wouldn’t conventional electric also have issues?
- Comment on Let us end the stovetop war with the real chanp 1 day ago:
Dang, that sucks. I’m still daily using an electric stove from the 1950’s lol. I would love it if modern “environmentally friendly” appliances could last this long

You could have bought so many things at the reddit store!

So long, and thanks for all the downvotes
- Comment on Banana for scale 3 days ago:
Not using the metric system is such a massive waste of money (let’s talk about international trade, everyone else uses metric), there’s no way anyone is justifying it based on cost. It’s because when they actually tried to adopt the metric system in the 70’s people revolted and destroyed all the new signs. Because this is a barbaric fuckin country.

And yet, they would still be more likely to pull off the presentation in Linux if it’s literally not possible in Windows 😉
- Comment on I have to give a presentation in 15 minutes 5 days ago:
Seriously, this right here is why I stopped using windows for work and switched to linux for professional reasons. Windows is not serious business software because of shit like this.

There are still clubs and activities in adult life and also I’m not forced to follow arbitrary rules all the time
You weren’t forced to work with anyone.
Our schools were very different!
- Comment on Happened More Than Once 😞 1 week ago:
I have like fifty million friends and a great job. I appreciate that my education helped my life, but I don’t miss school for a second.

Lmao maybe if you don’t know what you’re talking about you just shouldn’t post it 🥰

They are pioneers in planned obsolescence.
I have owned three laptops since 2004. Powerbook 2004-2014, Macbook Air 2014-2025, Macbook Air 2025-now. This doesn’t feel like planned obsolescence to me? This feels like computers that last way fuckin longer. but whatever. None of these laptops were more than $800 either. I’m into apple because I’m cheap as hell, IDK man.
- Comment on Why? 1 week ago:
Glad to see someone else mention this. I feel crazy enjoying the hell out of using what is basically “linux + commercial software” while everyone else is just like “Apple bad, too expensive.” Meanwhile my apple laptop and phone were both cheaper than the competition… never let that get in the way of a good narrative, I guess.

Krita is designed for painting, but you don’t have to use it for that…

If only there were other projects besides Gimp!
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Krita > Gimp
Also Inkscape > Illustrator but no one ever talks about this
- Comment on Anon isn't worried about population decline 1 week ago:
yes! If there wasn’t so much overconsumption by a small set of very rich folks everyone could live a comfortable life sustainably, it’s so frustrating
- Comment on Anon isn't worried about population decline 1 week ago:
100%. Weird that you’re catching downvotes for pointing it out
- Comment on Anon isn't worried about population decline 1 week ago:
Except in practice living in the city no one ever steals from me and all the folks I know who live in rural areas are like “watch out for methheads, they’ll steal your shit”

Never heard of the Indian Wars, huh
