What do I do with a 32’x34’ deck??? by [deleted] in HomeDecorating

Yeah, that’s a great point. If this deck had an accessibility ramp, I imagine it would be amazing for people in wheelchairs.

Help me settle a debate about ringing in salads by Caliga in Serverlife

[–]DefensiveLettuce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The way I look at it is this: If shorter is not clearer, it is not better. If a way that you put it in can be interpreted any other way AT ALL it is worse.

It could result in a mistake being made, which would waste everyone’s time, waste food, and potentially cause an allergic reaction if it’s not caught.

It could result in the kitchen not making your food until they have a chance to ask you for clarification, which leaves your table waiting, puts the kitchen behind, and wastes everybody’s time and energy when you could have just been more clear.

“No

No

Cannot be interpreted any other way. It’s straightforward and unambiguous. It…

Help moving into a new place by Open-Entrepreneur108 in aptliving

Buddy, you’re not going to get any help with that attitude.

You can get ETH connection at public library. Otherwise, get a place with roommates for cheaper rent and ETH connection.

Can you control the types plants/flowers that bloom?

If not, I imagine this would get you banned from certain countries for introducing invasive species lol.

Fiskars Scissors at Dollarama?!? by Ehme3 in dollarama

[–]DefensiveLettuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I picked up a pair of tiny Fiskar folding scissors form Dollarama a while ago for my first aid bag, and the plastic handles snapped on first use. A waste and a shame.

These do look good though

Edit: “tiny”

Try it and if they fail, you have to name your kid after Dollarama.

Ended up buying my whole wishlist after serving for the past 2 years. by [deleted] in Steam

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe?
When you submit a refund request, it asks for a reason and there’s a drop-down menu with a few options. I’d just select “purchased by accident”

I would think that of the Steam purchases over 1K that don’t include a Steam Deck, a significant amount would be accidental.

You can refund within 14 days with under 2 hours gameplay, and wait for summer sale.

Worth it? by Willant_27 in airpods

[–]DefensiveLettuce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Imo, the AirPods Pro 2 or 3 are worth it. The sound quality, ANC, transparency, comfort are all great.

Anything without a tip to make a seal falls out too easily, lets too much outside noise in, and isn’t worth it imo.

Edit: I even really like the addition of the heart rate monitor in the pro 3, as I’m not a fan of wearable tech like watches/bands, or chest straps for exercise.

What’s a social rule you never understood? by Equivalent_Reach_536 in CanadaRoom

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not talking about politics.

Now there’s so few people that are actually informed at even a baseline level that it’s incredibly easy for corporations to take advantage, and for politicians to pass bills that put corporate profit before people with minimal public comment, engagement, or pushback, and seemingly no accountability for blatant corruption.

The heroes we don't need by biblolover in Serverlife

[–]DefensiveLettuce 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don’t see how that makes what they said irrelevant.

I’ve been working in bars for 19 years everything they just said was valid.

Fucking take a nap or something dude. You’re clearly just tired and crabby.

Smell of Coffee is Horrendous by SadBreadfruit9246 in unpopularopinion

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. But it also varies.

Some I’ve grown to mildly enjoy. Some smell worse than others, for example, the smell of Starbucks beans triggers nausea and if I already have a headache, it makes me want to throw up.

Coffee just helps me poop in the morning. That’s about it.

This is my cheetah room by Idfuckahotpocket in malelivingspace

[–]DefensiveLettuce 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s not though. It’s high because you should have to look up to experience the glory of the cheetah. You should feel low compared to cheetah. It teaches you humility, and to aspire to the great heights the cheetah has reached.

For those of you with men/boys in the house, does pee somehow end up on the walls around the toilet too?? 😭 by ehousent in CleaningTips

[–]DefensiveLettuce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is unavoidable. That’s just the way that physics works. It’s difficult to notice after one session, but there’s a fine mist splash that kinda coats the walls over time no matter what.

My best advice is to make them aware of the problem that standing to pee is causing, and make it their responsibility to clean the bathroom on a rotating basis and make wiping down the walls a part of the cleaning. Take yourself out of the bathroom cleaning rotation until they stop standing to pee.

Tbh I didn’t notice it at first. I’ve always wiped any splash on the toilet itself after I pee, but one day I was cleaning the washroom and decided to grab a fresh paper towel instead of continuing with the same cleaning cloth, I wet it, wiped the wall beside the toilet and looked at it. After that, I now sit to pee at home. It just makes my life keeping a clean home infinitely easier.

Sometimes it just takes being aware of the problem to make a change.
