Correction: The plates are not broken until you open the door

[–] callouscomic@lemmy.zip 7 points 6 days ago

If you open the door, they break, if they break, they cannot be used, therefore you should NOT open the door. However, if you don't open the door, you cannot USE the plates for their intended purpose, effectively rendering them "broken."

Both states exist at once.

For those who are geoblocked by feddit.org

Well apparently asia is the source of a lot of scraping traffic, and they're an European focused website, so they went with the nuclear option of blocking the entire continent and change. Never mind that as one of the bigger instances on the Threadiverse, they're degrading the user experience for an entire continent. I brought the issue up to them previously, but they didn't seem too concerned about it.

Example of degraded user experience for Asia:

If you break the glass pane on the right, you might still have a chance to save it all

[–] rbos@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago

It looks like a sliding cabinet door. Might be doable without breaking a glass pane...

Get a couch cushion and about a hundred pillows.

Or a team of jugglers.

*scoffs* those are dessert bowls

[–] MutantTailThing@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

How would you go about remedying this though

[–] BlueMagma@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago

Carefully pop in the glass panel on the right, catch the bowl without opening the door.
