I’ve been carrying around multiple little baggies of pills in my backpack for years and over 20+ flights, several international, they’ve never asked.

Some are separated but loose in the bag (ibuprofen, cetirizine, diphenhydramine, from a bottle), and some were trimmed to minimum size from a blister pack and placed in the bag.

They focus a lot more closely on my headphones, charging cables, battery packs, etc.

So whatever is most convenient for you, in my opinion.

EDIT: they didn’t flag my epinephrine auto injectors (see: needles) either the three or four times I forgot to put them in the bin separately. Granted, those were domestic US flights.

I haven’t read the manual but I don’t think you’re supposed to cook your glasses.

My Cloud9 ErgoFS has dedicated keys for that. But, my fingers have known Ctrl+c/v for my entire life, plus they’re more easily reachable, so I still do that.

My only problem is Linux at home and Mac at work with the same keyboard so I tend to accidentally hit super+c in Linux because that’s the cmd key on Mac

Depends on the state. Down here there are pretty much zero restrictions except with an asterisk that it’s illegal to harm someone with them… AKA, an extra charge of you’re a dick and stab someone.

I’ve been carrying an “out the front automatic” for the last few years.

I bought a topo map a few weeks ago for a backpacking trip. Electronics are heavier and less suitable for that purpose in my opinion.

The inside of the can is lined by spray coating an epoxy lacquer or polymer to protect the aluminum from being corroded by acidic contents such as carbonated beverages and imparting a metallic taste to the beverage

Guess it depends on your definition of “plastic” and if someone would colloquially refer to an epoxy lining as plastic. Not here to debate word meanings but there is definitely a liner inside aluminum cans.

Do it : D

I mean… Expiration dates are mostly a lie anyway. Just do the sniff test, probably fine.

But, on topic, I do appreciate the post since that’s weird.

Praise the lord… for… panda butts?

Not exactly to your question, but a company I used to work for would ask for experience in internal only tools on job reqs.

Sure, hopefully it’s for people making role changes internally, but it seems a bit weird to ask for experience in <custom internal tool it is literally impossible to see, use, or hear about without working there> for an entry level job.

How am I supposed to doom scroll without doom posts?

For years I’ve desoldered components from electronics that are destined for recycling/trash. I haven’t needed them more than a few times but it’s redeeming when I need a specific thing I’ve never needed before and can pick one out of my component box rather than buying a pack of 100 and never use 99 of them.

Tiny momentary SPST switches are definitely the most common thing I use from the bin but I’ve also reused some LEDs, capacitors, and resistors.

Do you work with me? I’m in the US south and my EU colleagues love “y’all” and have started using it (ironically or not :) pretty often.

Warms my heart.

I had one. I don’t remember why though… Maybe it came with a PC as part of a sales promotion?

It worked fine but nobody else had one so it was really just used for backups of “large” (at the time) data.

Next “logical” step: periods are murder and shall be punished by Alabama as such.

Next you’ll start seeing your nose

(Sorry)

Inshallah is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.

O wow, that’s awesome and I’ll have to try this. We’ve got a mandolin but both of us suck at playing it :D

I don’t know why it’s so fun, but my day gets better every time I get to pet a turkey.

Let’s see if this uploads… It’s a picture of her after 10 minutes of pets

Edit: may look creepy, but she seems to be so comfortable that she’ll close her eyes and just chill. But I’m no turkey scientist. I imagine if she didn’t like it then she wouldn’t run up to me.
