Yeah but he’ll change every base unit to x, so now we measure acceleration in x/x^2 and volume is measured in x^3 and the highway speed limit is 80x/(x/60).

You can tweak this metaphor and get plenty of real life examples. Cats are obligate carnivores. There’s been lots of morons who went vegan and decided their cats could be vegan, too. I’ll leave guessing the outcome of that as an exercise to the reader.

I took photos at a friend’s wedding and most of the photos of his new wife had her wearing a lace veil.

I dumped all the photos into Picasso (precursor to Google Photos) and it did its background facial ID on everything. Then it suggested more photos that might also be tagged as her.

The extra photos were all just tables with tablecloths on them. It thought she was a tablecloth.

I had a manager once who had 3 small kids and he rarely caught himself when he excused himself from a meeting to “go potty”.

I didn’t watch it but my guess is the context is something like “all these groceries got more expensive under Joe Biden!” He was bitching about not being able to afford bacon a couple days ago.

I do that and eventually wake up and go the toilet and spend 2 minutes afraid to go in case I’m still dreaming and about to piss the bed.

Fakespot is great at catching these. It’ll give a really low score to products whose reviews don’t appear to have anything to do with the listing.

He did his best, but the attic is really dry.

You have to do the ‘ol’ push ‘n flush and hope you got the timing down.

Turns out your shit sitting exposed on a dry shelf smells exponentially worse than when it drops into water. Anyone still using these toilets in the 21st century is a psychopath.

I’ve read that aircraft mechanics were sad when smoking stopped because the nicotine smears on the aircraft were such a good visual clue of where air was leaking and it made theirs jobs a lot easier.

What about Mermaid? https://mermaid.js.org/syntax/gantt.html

It supports Gantt charts and has a pretty nice language for modifying chart content once you get used to it.

I use Obsidian with the Mermaid plugin for offline work, but there are tons of good web-based options out there, too.

It’s in order of how impactful it is on the whole as a whole, I imagine.

Maybe it’s for the really really big three percenters?

It’s worth pointing out that this only works if your plan is sufficiently evil.

Glow in the dark filament is shit for glowing more than a minute. It’s like the cheapest toys you had as a kid.

But they illuminate constantly if you shine a UV (or IR?) LED on them, and you generally don’t see the LED light nearly as much.

So my vote is a bigger project with an LED in the base that keeps whatever you print lit up and looking spooky green for hours.

It must be exhausting to be an unpleasant asshole 100% of the time. This guy’s brain rotted.

To be fair, that’s a pretty accurate way to describe my career, too.

They named her Alexis, a combination of their first names.

As heartwarming as this story was, this line confuses me.
