Baby shoes. Again, tie them to the handle.

Bonus points if you print out this comic and put it right next.

That’s why it’s discounted…

Yep, I’m familiar with those - on almost any bycicle the left pedal would tighten to the crank counterclockwise.

I’ve heard the right hand rule regarding magnetism and current direction (because it’s useful to illustrate correlation between vectors), but never about screws. Now that I think of it, it makes perfect sense there too, only that you have to imagine a thumb pointing down most of the time…

I can’t think of an equivalent phrase in Bulgarian for that, but it’s known that [most] threads tighten when turning clockwise… and if you don’t know what direction the clock goes, what are you even doing with screws or bolts…

And again there are special cases even outside of threads - for example in plumbing there are some valves that are open when the handle is parallel to the pipe and closed when the handle is perpendicular - and it might just happen that the closing motion happens counterclockwise.

… and you hope you don’t forget until the next time you have to do it…

Dammit, emacs.

Some laptops now have physical privacy shutters for that - and for those that don’t, you can get one that you can stick on top.

Saving a picture and posting it somewhere.

I see people making screenshots of their whole phone’s screen and posting them just to show a picture. In reality, maybe 90% of the time, if you see a picture on the screen of your phone, you can save that picture, with no pointless information around it, no black bars and so on. Even if that’s not possible, Android for example has been doing something from the recent apps screen that lets you extract a picture from an app’s screen - and that’s arguably even easier than doing a screenshot.

Electricity police, this fella right here…

Sketchy indeed. I’ve seen this as well, and the redeeming thing about it is that you’re locked out after 3 unsuccessful login attempts - so no matter how easy bruteforcing would be, there’s a safety catch dealing with it.

That Canadian tech guy. The channel has some good content, but that whole drama with the ex-employees, even without knowing the whole story, stinks of a toxic workplace, and I don’t want to support that. Plenty of other good tech-related content that I still follow - Level One Techs, Gamers Nexus, Hardware Canucks, Hardware Unboxed, JayzTwoCents.

Fro Knows Photo - used to have some good content years ago when I watched it, but started becoming more and more annoying, with clickbait thumbnails on almost every video.

SMoD - a good source for getting to know new/unknown bands in the doom/stoner/sludge metal realms, but unsubbed after the scandal.

Besides the water cooling that’s already mentioned, those could be used for example for routing an internal device out and into the I/O of the motherboard. An example would be some fan/RGB controllers that are meant to be somewhere inside the case, but are terminated with a standard USB A plug (and very few motherboards have that as an internal connector). Another example is a mini display that you could put inside the case that would need to interface with the GPU (so you’d need to route a DP or HDMI cable out of the case and into the back of the GPU).

Host your own stuff. With this little load you can do it on your own hardware with very little resources.

Also be mindful that a lot of online reviews might be sponsored, thus biased. I personally do look for reviews (ideally at least 2-3 different ones), but also for opinions of users on forums and other social media.

Where’s Hannah Montana Linux?

It’d be interesting to see that answered scientifically.

Why does it rhyme with “shoot yourself in the foot”?

If you’re not aware yet, there’s an xkcd for everything.

Fair point, and I can’t not think of Louis Rossmann after reading this. Still, I’m not sure how much it affects small scale farming (assuming that’s what the neofetch dev is doing).
