The discrepancy between the size of pockets in men’s and women’s pants is nuts. I can comfortably fit an entire iPad Mini in my pants pockets, while my gf is lucky to fit her phone in her’s.

25·1 month agoI bought a Pentium II 450Mhz Dell tower for $40 at a flea market recently. It was in great condition except for missing a hard drive. Installed a 32gb ssd with a SATA to IDE converter kit and installed Windows 98. It works! This was my first time doing something like this.
Looking for a good graphics card now. I want a VooDoo 2 but those are like $300 on ebay.

20·2 months agoI don’t understand how drivers know if they have enough time to go through a yellow light. I don’t drive anymore but for the short time I did I dreaded yellow lights.
I’ve been using dark mode 24/7 on all my devices for like 7 years now. I’ve tried a few times going back to light mode because text looks sharper but I keep getting headaches seemingly everytime I use light mode for more than a couple hours at a time.
