@david@boles.xyzHas Technology Ever Reduced Labor?
Has technology ever reduced labor? The question sounds rhetorical. We carry small computers that answer any factual query in seconds, our laundry tumbles itself clean while we sleep, our cars drive themselves on highways our great-grandparents traveled by mule. Of course technology has reduced labor. The question barely needs asking.
@callunavulgaris@mastodon.scotI'm learning to set very simple goals just atm as life is quite demanding and I hate never getting any traction on my mental to do list.
So today if I do nothing else I will change the bedsheets, clean the floor around the cats' feeding mats as they messy, and take laundry off the line and replace it with the load that's just washed.
I might also go (indoor) climbing and make courgette and split pea soup, and granola - comma for avoidance of doubt in case anyone thoug…

@jake4480@c.imBedsheets and laundry should automatically wash, set, hang, and fold themselves, there, I fucking said it
@DamonHD@mastodon.social#today I am *slowly* getting some admin done and doing some tinkering. My order with 12 Volt Planet was dealt with this morning, hurrah!
(I have also run the dishwasher and have laundry out on the line, and I think I shall go for a quick walk...)

@jevinskie@mastodon.socialis it bad when the laundry dryer vent is eliminated during the "professional" installation of new siding?

The article as a whole is basically a laundry list of usability complaints about specific software — a worthy list, but basically just a commiseration dump.
But the text @… quotes in the post? Frame that.
@samerfarha@mastodon.socialIs there anything worse than being productive all day and forgetting that you stripped the bed to do laundry until you walk into the bedroom to head to bed?
@azonenberg@ioc.exchangeYesterday was another interesting solar record: the 88.6 kWh of solar production didn't quite beat Saturday's record of 93... but our grid power consumption was the lowest I can recall seeing.
We consumed only 111 kWh, compared to the 150ish we more typically burn. Not entirely sure why... we didn't do any laundry or much in the way of cooking and it was a nice day so we had the windows open and no heat or A/C usage, which probably was part of it. Lab power demand was about…

@callunavulgaris@mastodon.scotMy son has put up herb drying hooks for me in the utility room! I'm beyond delighted! He's also put up the plastic greenhouse we got weeks ago so it is now filling with things that need potting on and generally sorting out. I'm also hoping to sort out a small raised veg plot and a pond, so my garden mojo is well and truly back. It's nice to feel enthusiastic again. #gardening
@teledyn@mstdn.cawell damn you #Monsterdon it started like this: I had to miss Sunday and knew it was Yongary (1g) but was confused by the toots, so got home and, oh, #yonggary1999 (2g) ok, missed it, have it, but lo it was double-bill with #yongary1967 so let' dig that out. I watch the extras, and learn about what I embarrassingly missed about the Shaw Bros' Mighty Peking Man. Let no one tell you not to watch it, or to, but only for #EvelynKraft, because that isn't why you should. MPM is about *miniatures*!
Miniatures that mimic live-sets, miniatures with air-conditioners and laundry on balconies, miniatures with pictures on the interior walls, everything hand-made, posters, logos, even the straw-hut village POST-destruction, and why? So they can crush it, burn it down, or just blow it up with gasoline.
those Buddhist monks pouring mandalas of sand are minor league.
but *now* I have two yong(g)ary films queued and it won't be any early bed time again, damn you #monsterdon
