Parking brake location(of cars which don't have the traditional hand break). Drove a few rental cars and always took a few minutes to find where the button is. Recently learned there are cars that have a pedal for a parking brake, took me 15 minutes to locate.

I had a car with a heavy clutch. Tried out my friends car and kept accidently stomping the clutch pedal due to how relatively light it was.

Well an argument against Apple products specifically is that they promote anti consumer trends.

Proprietary cables, unrepairable devices, having an ecosystem that is hostile to third party devices, popularising things like sealed batteries or removal of headphone jacks.

Apple actively is making the tech world worse imo.

The argument of the cosmic plan is the reasons are beyond human understanding

The child that died slowly and painfully from a horrible disease, died for a reason. God willfully did/allowed it, but for a reason we just are unable to understand. So to a thiest this meme doesn't make sense.

Mind you I don't believe in this stuff but these kind of jabs are just preaching to the athiest choir.

It is an issue with forums in general.

It is sweet that you decided to repair yours instead of outright replacing it.

I think Haunting Hijinks is a fun name and reminds me of shows like Scoopy Doo

A couple of suggestions:

  • Hide and shriek
  • Phantom Palace

Palworld may have some openings

Momentum, there are active niche subreddits that don't really exist on lemmy yet.

The kicker is that the devices are usually locked down so even if you have the motivation to get your hands dirty, you can't. The device dies as soon as support dies.

Comments don't count

The essay is due Friday.
