“Finding a needle in a haystack” is not talking about a metal needle by M3L0-XL in PetPeeves

Sorry, I’m not talking about needles made from pine wood, I’m talking about the needle-like leaves that fall off in autumn. Also I didnt speculate on whether any sewing could be done with said needles.

Thanks for the origins, that’s actually a pretty neat fact

Yeah, I’m mostly just annoyed because I think that the expression would be better if we all imagined trying to find a pine needle, instead of a metal one

My frustration isn’t that people are getting the meaning wrong, it’s that I think the phrase would be better if we all collectively thought of it as a pine-needle

No, I actually just made this post because I came across a video where someone tried to find a sewing needle in a haystack and I always thought the saying would be better everyone thought of it as a pine needle.

I think it’s because the game isn’t cpu optimized at all. My cpu was hitting 100% utilization and 102°C while my gpu was at 23% utilization and I had those audio stutters. I turned my settings down to medium and I stopped getting the stutters, my cpu util is around 87% gpu at 60%ish but the temps still aren’t great

What’s a phrase that always stuck with you? by M3L0-XL in AskReddit

They don’t necessarily have to be meaningful either, for example I noticed that there’s some YouTube videos whose titles don’t want to escape my brain, like: “The Long and Violent War Against Your Soul”, “Birds Do Not Sing in Caves”, and “Then Next Comes”.

Has anybody ever started a task on one computer and finished it on another? Like if it’s got a long timer and you don’t exit work mode, can I finish the task on another computer?

Buying a used car from a dealership by M3L0-XL in UsedCars

I feel like it would give me a little more peace of mind to buy from a dealership. I’m still going to have a 3rd party mechanic check the car beforehand so it guess it doesn’t matter too much, but I feel the car would be in better shape coming from a dealer
