very funny to me that the americans are running with two types of voltage. talking in everyday conversation about "the 110" and "the 220", etc.

The only reason to employ a time saving device is if you’re not otherwise going to waste those minutes of your life. I don’t buy that anyone posting on sa is harmed by waiting for hot water

the real answer is that your avg american already has too many kitchen appliances and they don't see the need for one that does a function they are already having immediately serviced by their stovetop

Lib and let die posted:my mother-in-law won't stop giving us kitchen appliances US gift giving culture is super hosed up. Theres this drive to give people something! ANYTHING! and it doesn't matter if the person absolutely doesn't need or want that thing. It took me a decade to get my mother in law to stop buying us random loving garbage she saw in JC Penny or where ever and to kill off the family white elephant which was entirely "just spent 25$ on junk and bring it and we will all try to make jokes about it and then it will all go in the garbage as soon as we get home" This is also super loving hardcore in pretty money tight groups too like no please do not put yourself in debt for holiday gifts. It is absolutely not worth it in any way. If you want to buy me something because you genuinely saw I didn't have a i really needed or I expressed a serious desire for it or something, sure. Cool. Go for it. But otherwise just dont just buy something for me because im a check box on a list. I'm an adult. If I dont get a gift im fine and it doesn't hurt my feelings. Im also an adult though and I just buy poo poo I need myself.

I bought it and had it crated and shipped out to my BiL. Sent him a prybar and a hammer the week before with no note. Middle of the afternoon he gets this gigantic crate with the mummy case in it. That loving thing was dumped on various family members for years until my uncle hauled it out to the middle of the woods, stood it against a tree, and left it there. Best purchase of my life.

See that's funny and entertaining and it wasn't just some plastic garbage. Someday someone will find that thing in the woods, all tarnished and hosed up and be like "What the actual gently caress??"

The pry bar setup takes it from annoying to artful, imo. Respect.

i say swears online posted:zelle is instant and free so if I'm not buying drugs I use that. no app and you only need a phone number or email address, not bank account number. it may have been around before 2015 but I started using it then Zelle also isn't supported by every bank (even some big ones). And it doesn't have a way to use your e-mail address or phone number with more than one bank account, or to switch them to different bank accounts. Even if the first one you had was closed, you can't use Zelle with your new one until you get a new e-mail address or phone number. And if anything goes wrong, Zelle is a third party that will point you at the banks on both sides, who will point you right back at Zelle. Good luck getting anything sorted out without a million phone calls. Bank transfers in the US are poo poo, and they're not likely to get better any time soon because the banks all have systems that were built in the 1970s, run everything in batches overnight, and are built to require downtime for maintenance every Sunday. But they "work" and updating them would eat into the record profits they're making, so it's not gonna happen.

Allow military recruiters to set up shop in high school commons areas. Military recruiters are allowed to lie to you to get you to sign up. Schools give out your phone number to them without your consent.

No attic or basement, which means ripping into the walls to add new wire. I've still thought about it in order to get a NEMA 6-20 socket in my kitchen so I can use a better wok burner, but I've got other projects I need to do first.
