I don’t sit down on short (round) toilets because there is no room for my “equipment”, but otherwise I agree.

I bought one the other day that wasn’t even that, it was literally translated by Google translate. It was so bad, I had to translate the French text word-for-word into English before it made sense.

At least they still make minivans, everybody else stopped making them in favour of these ugly-ass “SUV” which are worse in every aspect except towing… There are only 4 options on that market now (well, five if you count the Pacifica separately from the Voyager/Grand Caravan, but it’s more of a trim difference, so let’s say 4.5)

I’ve listed my pronouns under my name in my email signature, and that has cut down significantly on the number of people misgendering based on my first name. It’s not an obscure name at all, but the female version is way more popular and there only a very small letter separating the two versions, so a lot of people hallucinate it.

As a JS dev, I approve of this meme.

Costco is especially infuriating because they do not tolerate anything on the platform before you can start. You also cannot remove anything from the platform before you’ve paid and everything… So you can’t pack as you go, making everything slower and more stressful for everyone. If you even attempt to, the goddamn thing locks up and the clerk has to unlock it for you.

Maybe, I know Teslas are a bit power-hungry when parked.

My wife had to try charging on a 120V outlet last winter. The plug couldn’t even keep up with the battery heating requirements to actually start charging; the battery percentage was going DOWN while plugged in. It was -25°C outside though, so it’s a specific situation, but it’s actually why she had to try to charge; it’s a trip we can easily do without charging in the summer.

I’ve always wondered if vegetables from a farm that uses horse-drawn tills instead of tractors would be vegan… It’s a real question, but everyone I ask thinks that I’m trolling.
