  • The permanent part is what drives me nuts. I can't settle on a color for any of my stuff day-to-day. I would love to have walls, appliances, clothes, etc. all be able to change color at a whim. I would be horrified by any tattoo I had 25% of the time I had it, I guarantee.

  • Sure, but sometimes you want to see specific content, not see a bunch of content and sometimes see that thing you wanted to see an hour ago. By your logic, we could just get rid of communities and have nothing but an 'all' area.

  • While it's good advice to never intentionally connect TV to internet, some devices bypass you if they can. I think it was samsung that would connect to any other samsung product and through them to the internet, even if the other product was in your neighbor's living room.

  • I have a sceptre, I love it. I got it on a black friday sale before covid, and it still works well. Some people have said theirs went crappy within a year or two, so check models and reviews that seem legitimate to figure out which ones are crappy.

  • Oooh, the password thing totally gets me. Usually I have to start over because I don't know where I messed up. I type them in too damn fast and by the time the little brain part that's monitoring things says, "Hey, that one key was wrong," I'm ten characters beyond and wasn't counting anyway, so I have to start over.

  • I don't know, mate. I think part of the fun of showerthoughts is pulling them apart, sticking them back together, and wondering as a community why we do or don't do things a certain way. How boring would it be to just say, "hmm, okay," and move on with everything someone tosses out? Why even comment at all?

  • I broke the window in my friend's place (hilarious story, not relevant here, totally) and it was about $20 at the hardware store for the glass, glass cutter, and caulking. Between the two of us it took about 15 minutes to cut the appropriate size of glass and get the caulk looking semi-professional. We aren't talking a complete replacement of the window frame, paneling, cutouts, etc. We also aren't talking anything custom or fancy. If you can point to a double-paned glass window or some extremely fancy one that exists in an apartment complex (in Houston, of all places, too, so you know multi-housing developments are cheap as fuck), you are going to have a butler ready to open the door for you and won't need a key in the first place.

  • It's quite reasonable for most of Americans. Apartment managers won't answer at night. The locksmith isn't going to answer at night very often, and when you find the one that does answer it will be an hour or longer for them to arrive. Kick in the window, replace it with a half hour trip to the hardware store the next day. You've saved a half hour in total, and probably a large amount of money.
