Not exactly what you’re asking, but it’s also worth checking your local library. Some of them grant their cardholders access to external sources that might overlap with what you’re after.

Yeah but he’ll change every base unit to x, so now we measure acceleration in x/x^2 and volume is measured in x^3 and the highway speed limit is 80x/(x/60).

You can tweak this metaphor and get plenty of real life examples. Cats are obligate carnivores. There’s been lots of morons who went vegan and decided their cats could be vegan, too. I’ll leave guessing the outcome of that as an exercise to the reader.

I took photos at a friend’s wedding and most of the photos of his new wife had her wearing a lace veil.

I dumped all the photos into Picasso (precursor to Google Photos) and it did its background facial ID on everything. Then it suggested more photos that might also be tagged as her.

The extra photos were all just tables with tablecloths on them. It thought she was a tablecloth.

My baby has diapers that say “up to 100% leakproof”. It does not help my confidence in the product.

I had a manager once who had 3 small kids and he rarely caught himself when he excused himself from a meeting to “go potty”.

You need to run it with sudo, duh.

I didn’t watch it but my guess is the context is something like “all these groceries got more expensive under Joe Biden!” He was bitching about not being able to afford bacon a couple days ago.

I do that and eventually wake up and go the toilet and spend 2 minutes afraid to go in case I’m still dreaming and about to piss the bed.

I had a Roomba that was cloud connected (when AWS has an outage, it doesn’t work at all).

It still just mindlessly ran various patterns and beeped when it got stuck, which was all the time. Piece of shit.

My beef with YouTube music is that no matter what song I start from, in 4 songs it has turned into Levitating by Dua Lipa.

Children’s songs? Foreign language? Electro swing? Hip hop? Doesn’t matter. Levitating is coming soon.

Fakespot is great at catching these. It’ll give a really low score to products whose reviews don’t appear to have anything to do with the listing.

He did his best, but the attic is really dry.

You have to do the ‘ol’ push ‘n flush and hope you got the timing down.

Turns out your shit sitting exposed on a dry shelf smells exponentially worse than when it drops into water. Anyone still using these toilets in the 21st century is a psychopath.

I’ve read that aircraft mechanics were sad when smoking stopped because the nicotine smears on the aircraft were such a good visual clue of where air was leaking and it made theirs jobs a lot easier.

You’re just mad Gender Studies didn’t call you for a second interview.

It’s in order of how impactful it is on the whole as a whole, I imagine.

I bought Terraria when I was really into Minecraft. Didn’t like it at first because the only Minecraft thing is “pick up blocks and crafting”, but once I gave it a fair shake I absolutely loved it.

Fuck, now I have the game music stuck in my head from thinking about the game!

Maybe it’s for the really really big three percenters?

I have one. It’s a fucking lie.
