Even though Yates himself called it “the way to lose a lady”, I still like Aedh Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven.
Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
I think another part of it is being able to see what you’re clicking on. You want cursor pixels near the click target because they can show you where you’re clicking. But you also want the area around the target to be clear so you can see what you’re clicking on. Putting all of the “show me where I’m clicking” pixels on one side leaves as much space free to see what you’re clicking on as possible.
That’s oversimplifying it. Suppose you have a relative who has $20,000 in unpaid bills, and $5,000 in a savings account. They pass away and leave everything to you in their will. The money in the savings account is used to pay some of the bills, but the remaining $15,000 debt does not pass on to you, or anyone else. If it was the other way around ($5,000 is debt, $20,000 in savings), you’d get $15,000.
Doctors Without Borders and the ACLU.

Ok, the wikipedia page for bisphenol does mention skin absorption.
Mr and Mrs Smith is one of my favorites.
Come on, let’s talk about this! You don’t want to go to bed angry!
Great soundtrack, too.

Is this a “don’t lick the headphones” thing, or can these chemicals be absorbed through the skin?
My favorite is that in the same vein, Aristarchus estimated the size of the sun to be much larger than the earth (although he still severely underestimated it because it’s so hard to measure), and therefore proposed that the earth should orbit around the sun. And the main problem with his theory was not any religious objection, but rather that his model would imply that there should be parallax visible among the stars. Unless they are, you know, ridiculously far away.
Organ donation or medical/scientific use. Whatever parts are not useful can be disposed of in whatever way is easiest.
Take that, Big Food Processor! I don’t play by your rules.
I took a trip to Norway a year or so ago. I was flying first to Denver, where a friend who lived in Denver would meet me in the airport, and then we’d fly to Munich, and from there to Oslo. That was the plan, anyway.
Well, when I got to my gate at my local airport, I found that my flight was delayed by a couple of hours. Obviously too much to have any chance of catching my connecting flight.
I called the airline, and decided to take the flight to Denver that day, and rebook the remaining flights for both me and my friend for the next day, going through Frankfurt instead of Munich. I stayed overnight in Denver, and we set out the next day.
Aaand of course then the flight out of Denver was delayed, and we missed the flight from Frankfurt to Oslo. We were rebooked onto a flight from Frankfurt to Munch, in order to catch a later flight from Munich to Oslo. Fortunately that one was on time. But then the flight to Oslo was delayed; you know, one for the road, I guess. At that point we were just glad that that delay wouldn’t make us miss another flight.
No option for “a little AI, maybe, where it makes sense, but don’t go crazy with it” option, I see.
I like OurGroceries, but they want almost $20 to remove ads these days. Or an ongoing subscription, which… yeah, no. That is too much for a glorified checklist.
