I'd rather have actually efficient solar panels at home to charge a regular EV with; this is some solar frickin roadways level impractical nonsense. What if the paint goes opaque after a few years? What abput scratches and dings?

Also can we make the wheels any bigger?

On my work PC I disabled automatic restarts and I'll just hibernate it for weeks at a time, keeping my work stuff open. Convenient, and I can install updates when I choose to.

That vacuums are so terribly loud and whiny (and unnecessarily tiny space heaters). Older vacuums used to be bigger and run slower, but in my experience vacuumed as much or even better. Nowadays they put several kilowatt motors in there that somehow don't do as much but produce immense noise and heat.

If someone vacuums with their window open I can tell from over 100m away by the whine. Fuck that.

I used to hate vaccuming because of that. I'm glad to have an actually quiet vacuum now (a Henry). They're rare, but they do exist.

I love how you can see the trees through the little water droplets.

I like to lay on my side in bed and read, and my cat will snuggle up in front of me. Often I'll later flip around, and we'll have each others' back.

I tend to flip around a lot before falling asleep, so she'll usually go lay at my feet (preferably on my blanket), but she's good as long as she's close.

Don't cats have a protective instinct as well, where they face away from one while being comfy together?

I found this on it; still need to read through it. Some sort of lithium battery technology, it seems.

They ought to force them to put photos of where the eggs came from on the packaging, like with cigarettes. Photos of the actual plant/range/etc. Might make people consider not picking the cheapest option.

I use an Open With extension in Firefox for that so it's just an entry in the right click menu for me. Super convenient.
