  • It's not all just poopoo peepee stuff. A lot of plumbers do mechanical work in commercial buildings, boiler retrofits, repiping, construction. I'm in commercial HVAC and work with a bunch of plumbers whose skills and scope of work have great overlap with mine. I've also helped them out doing boiler retros/repipes. We offer similar services, subcontracting each other to our own customers, just they do more of the gas fired work and fix leaks in heating loops and I do the AC/Refrigeration stuff

  • Rental. I've got no choice than to use the shitty Samsung crap they put in these apartments, which you have to set 25 degrees higher than all the cooking instructions in the world say to, and it still takes 50% longer to cook than it says.

    Besides, electric ovens always take FOR EVER to preheat no matter what

  • Yeah, like Idek how I would self host any of my gear, beside running it through my NAS, which also runs with its own software, which is no different than running stuff through the apps they came with. If I knew how to program stuff myself, and had the fuck around time to do it, I would.

    So for now I'm just living with the easy option of using my roomba, and my cameras with the apps they came with

  • I once wondered why the fuck an oven should need WiFi.

    Then last week I was stuck in a traffic jam coming home from work, and took 2 hrs to do what should've been a 1 hr drive. (45km distance)

    Then I had to make dinner, and I had such little time to have dinner, clean up from dinner, shower, walk the dog, and settle down for bed for work in the morning, I was angrily wishing I could preheat the oven while I was on my way home from work. That's when I realized the reason for a WiFi oven.

    Also, being able to say "hey Google lights out" when I'm tired as fuck about to go to bed and the light switch is on the other side of the room opposite direction from the bedroom, is nice too.

    Actually, as someone who has little free time when not stuck at work or in traffic, I'm probably more likely than the average person to appreciate things having wifi.

    Doorknobs though, I'll draw the line there so we can both at least agree on something together

  • Depending where it is, a figure of speech up to a certain point of where they actual enforce it, most cops don't even go the speed limit on some roads and highways.

    They're low and out dated as fuck, and mostly just a money grab, again, depending on the street and the limit, for example excluding in front of schools and parks

  • Vehicles don't even use lanes properly in Cities Skylines. They all line up single file in one lane backed up all the way down the highway all the way to the edge of the map because they all want to take one of the multiple available exits. The only time they ever switch lanes is if the other lane turns left, and they switch at the last second right before the turn

  • My mom would just walk away as if she didn't even have a kid with her. The panic and fear of losing my mom and having to find her again in a huge ass grocery store is what eventually kept me close from some point on
