This is state law in California. Enforcement differs in each area. I don’t believe Oakland checks.

I usually bang the edge of the lid with some blunt flatware. Dull side of a butter knife is my preferred flatware.

Helped my manager open something a few weeks ago by using some random piece of office equipment. She was very happy to pickled jalapenos as a side.

My last two TVs were dumb ones.

It is getting harder find dumb TVs because the smart stuff included with most TVs subsidizes keeping the initial price low. Manufactures are betting millions of dollars purchasers will sign up for the monthly apps.

I have a filing cabinet with one drawer for hanging folders. Everything gets sorted and put in there. When a folder gets too fluffy I will pull it out and shred old stuff.

I could probably get rid of a lot but this method does come in handy occasionally. Most recently were my 2023 taxes which I filed in July (I had an extension). I yanked the 2023 file and immediately had 90% of my donations and medical expenses.

I do similar. Cross the name out with a Sharpie and write “MOVED”.

After owning the place for two years now I just throw it out.

I can’t read any more comments. It is too dusty in here.

Agree. Grew up and live in the states but read international news, tech stories, science news, etc.

It is just easier for me to remember a little of the metric than stopping to do a conversion each time.

Are you saying JD Vance keeps Kanye’s song “Gay Fish” on constant rotation?

Can we all give a huge shout out to Always Sunny in Philadelphia for being great and being the one inspiration for so many memes?
