Seggs fault

Baby shoes. Again, tie them to the handle.

Bonus points if you print out this comic and put it right next.

Platform-wise, it’s already proven that it’s a viable alternative (with some advantages even - the federated nature for one), but content-wise, it has A LOT to catch up (because let’s be honest - in addition to all the bullshit and toxic people, Reddit has tons of useful information and good people still).

I wish there were more things like this (and not just flashlights) - made with some thought put in. And to anyone who’d whine about the price, the fact that you have them 10+ years later says enough.

That’s why it’s discounted…

Yep, I’m familiar with those - on almost any bycicle the left pedal would tighten to the crank counterclockwise.

I’ve heard the right hand rule regarding magnetism and current direction (because it’s useful to illustrate correlation between vectors), but never about screws. Now that I think of it, it makes perfect sense there too, only that you have to imagine a thumb pointing down most of the time…

I can’t think of an equivalent phrase in Bulgarian for that, but it’s known that [most] threads tighten when turning clockwise… and if you don’t know what direction the clock goes, what are you even doing with screws or bolts…

And again there are special cases even outside of threads - for example in plumbing there are some valves that are open when the handle is parallel to the pipe and closed when the handle is perpendicular - and it might just happen that the closing motion happens counterclockwise.

… and you hope you don’t forget until the next time you have to do it…

They got us in the first half

I don’t know what platform this is, but such a review should be moderated in some way. If an employee treats you badly during normal service, then fine, it’s justified to drop a negative review, but if you’re as incompetent as to be unable to understand that nobody is obliged to serve you outside of the stated working hours, it’s entirely your problem and it shouldn’t affect the rating of the establishment.

In addition to that there’s usually also working hours on Google Maps that are up to date for most businesses.

It’s not even that much of a pain. I’m mostly dealing with TypeScript, very rarely vanilla JavaScript, and it’s even enjoyable most of the time.

Eh, whatever. It puts food on the table…

Yes, indeed, I see javascripts in the wild every day.

I’m also interested in this. Haven’t gotten around to deleting my stuff. Some of the things I’ve posted over the years can be useful to me, so I wanna keep them.

Some laptops now have physical privacy shutters for that - and for those that don’t, you can get one that you can stick on top.

Saving a picture and posting it somewhere.

I see people making screenshots of their whole phone’s screen and posting them just to show a picture. In reality, maybe 90% of the time, if you see a picture on the screen of your phone, you can save that picture, with no pointless information around it, no black bars and so on. Even if that’s not possible, Android for example has been doing something from the recent apps screen that lets you extract a picture from an app’s screen - and that’s arguably even easier than doing a screenshot.

Electricity police, this fella right here…

Sketchy indeed. I’ve seen this as well, and the redeeming thing about it is that you’re locked out after 3 unsuccessful login attempts - so no matter how easy bruteforcing would be, there’s a safety catch dealing with it.
