bad idea: A mouse cursor that's not just a simple floating pointer, it's a cat/dog paw... but it stretches all the way to an edge of the screen like it's a really long leg

Fantasy Mission Force!
Sometimes I'll mention there's an early Jackie Chan movie that has one of my favorite scenes, where he does a car derby battle against a group of nazis and everyone looks at me like I'm crazy.

My solution for bloatware is this: by law you should hire in every programming team someone who is Like, A Guy who has a crappy laptop with 4GB and an integrated graphics card, no scratch that, 2 GB of RAM, and a rural internet connection. And every time someone in your team proposes to add shit like NPCs with visible pores or ray tracing or all the bloatware that Windows, Adobe, etc. are doing now, they have to come back and try your project in the Guy's laptop and answer to him. He is allowed to insult you and humilliate you if it doesn't work in his laptop, and you should by law apologize and optimize it for him. If you try to put any kind of DRM or permanent internet connection, he is legally allowed to shoot you.
With about 5 or 10 years of that, we will fix the world.

So the radiator in our bathroom is fucked, right. Years back when it was installed, the plumber didn't tighten the top valve enough, and the then-slow drip of water made the cap over it rust in place. Now, years later, the cap is fixed, so we can't get to the valve to tighten it now that the drip is more of a steady stream. But losing that much water daily means having to re-pressurise the boiler every day.
Exhibit A:
So I needed to do SOMETHING. I did consider grouting it, but the problem is, there's too much water - grout, sealant etc all need to dry to become waterproof.
However I am an intelligent tool-using creature with great tits, so I decided to stop it up today with simple items from around my home.
Behold, my tools:
Because! As we know! Condoms are waterproof, and about the right size for a snug radiator fit, and then I just need to duct tape it in place for the Ultimate Seal. Duct tape does anything. I'm a genius and there are no flaws in this plan.
I will, however, admit that this bit looked A Bit Silly
BUT, it's fine. Duct tape, as ever, saves the day.
My finished, fixed radiator:
Operation: Radiator Bondage is now complete.
My sister's response was "I have three radiator engineers in my house right now, I'm going to go and ask them what you should do instead."
I think this is Unsupportive

there’s better ways to say this but it pisses me off that a lot of people who consider themselves “different” or “stylish” now bc they wear 90s and early 2000s clothes but they’re literally wearing outfits that normies and like your republican cousin Dave would’ve worn in the 90s and early 2000s…💀
