  • Seems like a great idea but those prices are too damn high.

  • This whole thing is confusing to me.

    For me, gen X, growing up it was this:
    Sweatshirt: Non-hooded OR hooded and shirt shaped with NO zipper but made of material that is "fleece"-like on one side and smooth-ish on the other.

    Jacket: zippered thing, long sleeves, usually made of plastic or nylon but the purpose was to wear OVER your clothes as a windbreaker and/or to keep you warm.

    Hoodies did not exist. Things like a sweatshirt, jacket, coat or shirt might have a hood.

    Now, I do not know what the fuck to call shit.

    That is a fucking jirt. Shirtet. Sweatjack. Hoodet. Sweatie. Jackie.

  • This kinda rocks my world. I never thought of it being based on the material, no wonder I've always found the whole hoodie / sweatshirt / sweater / jacket think confusing.

    Hmmm...still not sure it makes sense to me...

  • I was not just making a joke, amigo. I am old enough that I used this stuff back in the day. I graduated from dialing into BBSes on my Commode 64 to this stuff. And I am amazed and happy that it is still around.

  • Well I'm just sayin

  • Is radio dead now? Aren't podcasts dead now too? Isn't it all youtube vids now? What is even happening?

    You kids get off my..um...media...

  • This is ART.

    Thank you, Mr. Watterson. The world would LOVE more of this if you're ever inclined.

  • Yeah, I was gonna say that these men DID go to therapy.

  • And that "tagless label" is gone after the first wash too.

    Doing their best to kill the used clothing market.

  • My motion switch in the main floor bath also senses light so it does not turn on when it is sunny.
    My motion switches in the basement laundry and garage might also be light sensitive but it is always dark there so I always want them to turn on.
    I think to do what I think you want, I would investigate X10 or other home automation hardware. That stuff lets you program switches so you could set it to never come on during certain times (for example). X10.com
    X10 used to be much cheaper than most other home automation hardware/software.

    I agree that spending more gets better quality tools but I don't want or need great quality in my junk drawer. Nor do I want to use expensive tools on packaging. The expensive tools go in my tool bag to get used and abused on "real" work.

  • Maybe nothing is real in English.

  • DOT MATRIX WITH STEREO SOUND

  • Yes, I think many people think otherwise, even in tech. To many "the cloud" is some sort of magical, mystical place data can go. And companies selling cloud services perpetuate the myth.

    This is a revelation to many people.

  • I have a few motion activated lights in my house and really love how convenient those are. One is an in wall light switch and another is a screw in one in a ceiling light socket.

    I also use my pour over coffee set daily. And my coffee grinder.

    I bought a cheap little wire cutter and keep it in my junk drawer. Great for cutting zip ties and twist ties on packaging.

    I keep a water bottle in the fridge. Always have cold water and hardly use glasses. Bring it to the table when you eat.

    Lazy Susan on the dining room table for salt, pepper, toothpicks, pencils, sticky notes, etc.

    Long plastic dollar store shoehorn by the door.

    I get big packs of 3M clean removal hooks from Costco and use them all over the house to hang keys, pants, hats, string lights, jackets, etc.

  • What if I told you "the cloud" is just someone else's computer.
