Biggest danger from weed is secondhand smoke. A drunk might crash into you with their car and then beat you up for being in the way.

Nike is not a designer brand, and something like "creasing" is only an issue if you're a sneakerhead.

I'm kind of a sucker for more traditional tech and IME wireless connections tend to be kind of flimsy, but damn if there aren't situations where all those cables start getting a certain bondage vibe.

Many pizzas are vegetarian (e.g. margherita). IDK whether you're looking for cheese-based dishes, though.

I love it when I can still repair or modify a piece of gear. The large physical size and relative simplicity of older gear makes a big difference for that, especially for home users. And then there's the whole thing where a lot of newer stuff is just glued together, so you can't even access the insides without expert knowledge.

Back when I was making chip music, the original Game Boy was all the rage, despite the shitty display.

4:3 was always the superior format unless you watch videos in fullscreen!

TBF, he does live out in the woods and does a lot of woodworking and stuff like that. He probably has more use for a truck than most.

TIL a futon is a couch for americans

I only knew about the Japanese "thin mattress on the floor" version.

Nevermind "maximum performance", back when Elden Ring came out I needed a fresh version of mesa to get it to run at all. That was on Ubuntu, but I doubt Debian would have been any better. At least it was an easy fix to get fresher mesa from a PPA.

It scales great actually. Have you never seen one of those mini pots that only make enough for one small cup?

Man, you'd think they issue caffeine pills for those situations ...

When I used Mint about 6 years ago, I sometimes got into trouble with Mint's weird update system. They were also telling users to reinstall instead of updating when there's a new LTS, which is kinda ridiculous IMO.

I'm probably not the typical Mint user, though.

Cool axe or hammer is probably more practical in day-to-day life.

They had a lot of missteps over the years (e.g. at one point, they shipped with Amazon ads in the OS). Currently it's the way they're pushing Snap (which is a lot like Flatpak, but proprietary and only really used by Canonical (because it's proprietary)).

Plus the whole "it's for noobs" image.

Coffee filter machines are also old and reliable, very traditional (where I live, at least; French presses are a newer trend compared to that) and very practical-minded (IMO it usually tastes like crap, but you can make a lot of it at once and it stays warm for a long time).

Damn, I used to do that. I think I used Windows 7 at the time ...

You get to choose between burnt-tasting black coffee and a pint of milk with more syrup than espresso!

Some instant coffee is just fine if you add milk. IMO it's better than the cheap filter coffee that a lot of people I know drink.

Good idea! Maybe more specifically a live usb distro, like Puppy, Knoppix etc?

Couldn't be more wrong for me, lol

Also, I feel like instant coffee should be represented - it's one of the most common preparation methods and it's easy to dunk on.
