shadshack@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy•What's something you immediately judge a person for when you see them wearing or have?341·24 days agoI used to work retail and was helping a college aged guy pick out some new headphones. He was deciding between some Beats and some Bose headphones. I literally asked him “do you want something that sounds good or looks good” and was amazed he actually said “looks good”. So I reluctantly sold him the Beats.
Peanut butter ones all the way.

I had to scroll really far to find this, but my LG was so good I bought another when I moved. My wife thought all dishwashers just sucked until she saw how well the LGs can do.
shadshack@sh.itjust.worksto Dull Men's Club•I've found the bathroom with good wifi at work18·1 month agoThe cell signal at my office is so bad it barely loads anything, so I use work Wi-Fi.

shadshack@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy•What is the oldest thing you own that you still use daily?5·1 month agoI’ve got this little blue plastic cup I’ve had for almost 30 years. Use it for my toothbrush. Got it when I was a kid and it’s the only toothbrush holder I’ve ever had since.
I just found two of these in my garage. They’d be cool if they weren’t around every time I go to do laundry. They eat cockroaches though so I guess they’re still cool.

She wants to support the authors she reads, which is fair. But she decided she wanted to try the Harry Potter books, and asked me to pirate them for her to make sure JK Rowling didn’t get a penny out of her.
Just rewatched that episode. She goes into the cellar of a convenience store and finds a trapped zombie and cuts into its skin, then comes out with a box of tampons. Nothing really too crazy happens even though they make you think it will.

shadshack@sh.itjust.worksto People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•Have we overcomplicated everything?6·4 months agoHue bulbs are just zigbee. You can get an offline zigbee hub, plug it into Home Assistant, and control it without needing the Hue hub anymore. Then just keep using your existing bulbs and buy generic zigbee ones as needed to replace when they fail.
