  • Do we know of it’s specific to this microwave, or just something that happens to be grounded?
    Is it just a static shock or something a bit more spicy?

    Grounded things that would discharge static:

    • The screw that holds the face plate over an electrical outlet.
    • a metal PC case

    I’m trying to understand if you’re

    1. accumulating static charge and discharging it by touching something that’s grounded.
      Or
    2. if your microwave is defective, leaking current on the chassis and you become the ground when you touch it.

    You mentioning you’re barefoot, kinda maybe point to #2, which isn’t fun (or safe).

    I imagine neither would happen wearing shoes, but I dislike shoes in my own house.


















  • I like chunkier scrollbars. Fuck the tiny disappearing scrollbars where you need to mouse over… somewhere… to maybe be graced with its presence, only for it to be 1px wide for some reason.
    Also fuck the endless scroll, especially when you already know what you’re looking for is on page 4 because you had to reload the page for some reason but the infinite scroll didn’t save your position and you have to go down (without an actual scrollbar) only to “load more” 3 times until you’re (maybe) on page 4.
