- Salted butter wrapping text must be red. Unsalted blue.
ban stateist flags
no, but seriosly, I wouldn’t ban anything
Ban banning things 🤯
Women’s clothing now have the same definition for what is xs s m l xl and etc
Address numbers are to be placed in a prominent position, with a font that is legible from the street and illuminated at night, on every building in cities and towns.
Out in the country address numbers are to be displayed on reflective signs at the end of the driveway and again if/when a shared driveway splits.
Delivered to this place awhile back:
It’s ugly as hell, but I’m damn sure I know which apartment is which
Having addresses be easily legible for emergency services isn’t inconsequential, and is legally required where I live.
I wasn’t even thinking of emergency services. I was thinking selfishly as a pizza guy.
Well, pizza is pretty important, too.
Institute maximum ad space limits that an individual corporation or organization are allowed to buy per unit of eyespace.
Also, adverts put up on your behalf contribute to that limit, so no SuperPAC shenanigans.
Should at least resolve the issue of being spammed endlessly by adverts from the same group over and over and over again.
I don’t know, my emotions?
I lol’d
If you are selling three sizes of something, the sizes are called “small”, “medium” and “large”.
“Regular” instead of medium should be ok.
If there are only 2 sizes you can pick any 2 of the labels.
“Medium” should not be allowed if there are only 2. Medium is in the middle. “Regular” would be fine, but I can’t remember ever seeing it.
No olives shall be added to feta in oil.
Bumper height of vehicles.
Glassware must be rated to survive short drop onto wood floor at a minimum.
(The fitted sheets we have do have tags for top and bottom with hanging tag at bottom. I would say just don’t give them hanging tags at all.)
For glassware, try buying tempered glass. It’s more resistant, but most importantly, when it breaks, it tends to break into cubes rather than into a million little sharp knives.
Bwahaha, I had a tempered measuring cup, a big one I used for pancake batter, stuff like that. One day I gently tapped it with a wooden spoon and it exploded. Pancake batter and (yep, not sharp) tiny pieces of glass everywhere! That was the day I learned tempered glass can store energy. It wasn’t that one tap, but every thwack it ever received built up, until it could not store any more and it exploded. Very interesting to learn but very messy.
Tried this, they’re all broken. Corelle flatware lasted quite awhile, but were still no match for my wife and kids. Everything is now stainless steel.
I’d be worried about microwave compatibility, as well as a metallic taste in my water. How are things, really?
It’s fine. No metallic taste since it’s not a reactive metal. In the microwave you just have to make sure it doesn’t contact the edge. You only get arcing of metal when there are sharp points or loops, which aren’t present on a disc.
Cheating in online video games is criminally punishable
every date MUST be in RFC 3339 format. e.g. 2024-09-08, with optionally the time: 21:41:24+02:00
and hell no not ISO 8601 cause then people would use stuff like 2024W154
Thank you! Also nobody wants to buy a copy of an ISO standard
I think that ISO 8601 is available for free. But agreed that the RFC version is superior.
Would you allow long dates?
For example, Jan. 11, 2022, or 7 September 2010.
no, for cross-language interoperability. ok I just noticed that this breaks other calendar systems but well
stand on the right of the escalator, walk on the left, or go to fucking jail
(reversed in countries where they drive on the left)
also no single wide escalators. (MTA, cut that shit out!)
Usually not reversed anywhere because most people are right-handed.
There’s generally higher throughout if people just stand on both sides.
Noted exceptions being if it’s not a massive bolus of people trying to leave or also if the walk side is fully saturated with walkers.
but I am impatient and also I hate escalators and want to spend as little time on them as possible :[
I hope there’s more of them in your life.
Sinner.

Ban pharmaceutical advertising.
Ban the display of the US flag in public by private individuals including police except on national holidays and public/government buildings.
I didn’t realize repealing the First Amendment was “inconsequential.”
Doctors should also not receive incentives to prescribe certain drugs
I was on vacation in the USA recently, and the existence of pharmaceutical advertisements was shocking. The amount of them was even more shocking!
There was a time when this wasn’t a thing. It wasn’t even that long ago (for some of us)
Coffee shop tables should be 3 legged to prevent them from wobbling and me spilling my coffee when I lean onto the table even just a bit.
Early access and beta and alpha terms for games. Also, early access has a time limit.
Alpha - we’re adding and removing features.
Beta - we’re 90% polishing 10% adding/removing.
Early access - just fixing bugs. Maximum 3 to 6 months.You can stay in alpha and beta as long as you want. I don’t want to change game dev actuality. I just want the terms to reflect what’s actually going on.
I’d make the weather more predictable so I could adapt to it.
Would you like define pi to be 3 while you’re at it?
What use would I get out of this?
Much easier math
Just make it 1, then the math is even easier.
That’s the kind of thinking we need!
“inconsequential”
“relatively inconsequential”
Nothing is 100% inconsequential.
Don’t think that weather control is relatively inconsequential.
Weather control isn’t, but to many of us the weather itself is, in the sense that stuff tends to happen regardless of the weather here and people look at the weather and think “meh”. By keeping it in line though, some things would become easier.
OK…?
