Just discovered a much easier way to grind my coffee in the morning and felt dumb because it was so obvious, figure there's some good stories out there about this type of thing out there

Saying no instead of trying to fix everyone's problems. I'm bit handy at fixing a lot of things and I'm happy to teach people how to fix stuff but sadly most of them don't want to learn and just see me as a tool.

    An alternative that I do with my parents: "I told you not to buy this locked Samsung phone filled with adware (or antivirus subscription), throw it in the trash and buy a real phone that is cheaper, I'm not helping you anymore because you don't listen to me."

    (Yes, it's a rant but it works)

    God, Omarchy is so fucking useless. Dude at work was going on about it so I staged it up on a random machine. It isn't an operating system: it is an AI GUI.

    It lasted a good hour before I blew it out. Fucking unusable with no benefit.
