So close. It’s like they knew they had to do something, just not exactly what

Definitely! For electronics, Eneloop batteries are worth every penny. I think I have ~10 AA and AAA, and I haven’t bought disposable batteries in years. I try to make sure I have 4 of each available at all times so I don’t have to wait for them to recharge. I’ve tried cheaper (Amazon) batteries, and they fail much more quickly, and sometimes swell to the point where I have a hard time removing them.
Some people say IKEA’s batteries are just rebranded Eneloops, but I haven’t had a chance to try them

Please keep in mind, this is using a sledgehammer to swat a gnat. YMMV
I’ve seen posts where I had to assume OP/the commenter wasn’t a native English speaker, because of the sentence structure and odd choice of words. A multilingual platform such as lemmy, can sometimes leave you scratching your head. Since I don’t speak a 2nd or 3rd language I’m always in awe of polyglots. I always try to offer an olive branch by assuming the fault was mine, and I wasn’t clear enough in my wording.
however…
There are people (myself included) who will skim long form texts, rather than actually reading all of the words (thanks to every prof who’s ever assigned busy work or HW on a school holiday). I can only speak for myself when I say, once I’ve skimmed something, if I get to the end and it doesn’t add up, I go back and re-read it in its entirety. I have to imagine in a world of 6 billion people, there willl be some who don’t choose to re-read the text, and choose outrage…also some people just think it’s funny to be contrarian, there’s not much you can do about that, other than smile and move along.
Tomorrow you will wake up, the world will be full of promise, and maybe a satisfying breakfast, and you won’t even remember angry_commenter@lemmy.instance…they, on the other hand will wake up, and still be them…
I agree! This was the first one of !USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website’s posts I’ve seen, and also one of my favorite episodes yet. I just read it over my lunch, and I think I will need to re-read it again when I get home - just in case I missed anything. Thank you !USSBurritoTruck@startrek.website!
Thank you for this! I’ve always been annoyed by non-collapsable, intrusive sidebars. Slashdot’s just seemed to get wider, and wider, over the years.
I’d found this when I used to go to old.reddit: javascript:$(‘.side’).toggle();void(0);
I made it a bookmark on my bookmark tool bar to toggle the right sidebar on my main page
Looks like they’re available on eBay and Walmart (via a 3rd party seller)
