What item(s) that you currently own do you expect to be using for the rest of your life given that you don't break or lose it?

  • The clothes that juuuuust don't quite fit that I'm hoarding just in case I manage to lose that wright I've been trying to lose for the last thirty years now.

    • What's something really good that is about to happen, and not a lot of people know about it?

    • HMNZS Manawanui has sunk after striking a reef while conducting a reef survey. All crew and passengers safely accounted for.

  • "Going in for a closer look."

    • I genuinely feel like I wouldn't live that differently even if I suddenly became ultra-wealthy. Am I kidding myself?

    Jump

  • Yep, I'm well aware that I'm privileged. I'm concerned about the world my kids will live in as they grow up.

  • This sounds like retirement.

    • What industry secret are you aware of that most people aren't?

    • Are there any household gadgets you found unexpectedly useful after you'd gotten them?

    Jump

  • When we built this house we specified power outlets in each toilet for exactly this reason. The low light levels from the motion sensor lamps we have don't sear your eyeballs when you get up in the middle of the night to pee.

  • I am choosing to interpret the instructions as dumping a full bottle of pancake mix into the rice cooker, cook twice, then tip out the resulting pancake-cake and slice it up thinly like a pressed ham. I guess slice extra thinly for crepes?

    • The headquarters of the sudanese navy building is shaped like a ship. The air force headquarters is shaped like a plane

    • The four houses dads belong to.

  • Different models, not a straight badge swap. Loads of platform & parts sharing between the companies though.

  • I always lean towards Bosch where possible, mainly because of their charitable work. The founder set things up so that it's perpetually funded from the company profits. That just appeals to me as the tiebreaker when deciding between a bunch of similarly priced tools that will otherwise do the job well enough.

    That said, I tend to go for corded options where practical. I have some corded tools that I've owned for over thirty years now that still get occasional use. Battery tools are convenient for their portability, but they do have a limit to their useful life.

  • We have Volkswagen and Skoda at our place and there are a lot of common parts under the skin. The towbar electrics module I added to the Skoda is badged Audi.

    • Google is moving Shopping List and other notes back into Google Keep

    Jump

  • Maybe somewhere in all this stuffing about with Keep they can add the ability to sort lists.

    • What habits or tastes did you keep from your teenage years and that slightly ashame you as an adult?

    Jump

  • Mine was similar. As a teenager I used to make sandwiches as you describe with instant coffee granules instead of sugar. The granules would dissolve into the butter to form a brown caffeinated sludge. Yummo!

  • Bad strategy choice. Looked like he was going for a one stop. He was the last to pit for new tyres after a long first stint. Not sure if his switch to softs at the end was an attempt to salvage something, but by then the damage was done.

    • What is your favorite non-alcoholic beer?
