You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
Another Wednesday, another chemistry lab
Today's was relatively painless, at least
And there's no lab next week because Veterans Day, so I can't complain

This laptop has one of those annoying touchpads where the "buttons" are integrated so you just push down the left or right corner of the pad to left- or right-click.
When I took it apart, though, I found something weird. The mechanism inside is only a single button, regardless of which side you press down. Instead of having two separate buttons, it has a single button and determines which "button" you're attempting to press by the location of your finger.
Yes, I'm sure. I tested it. If I put my finger on the right "button" and push down on the left button with a glove, it registers as a right click.
Talk about overengineering. This can't possibly have been a simpler design than just having two separate buttons behind the scenes.

So, I always wondered what happened to the huntsman guy in the movie Snow White, and if the Queen killed him or he managed to get away in time.
Young me had a theory that Queen Snow White made that guy the captain of the guard or something after the movie was over.
I've never seen Pinnochio, but I know the basic gist, and young me had a theory that after the movie was over, Pinnochio went to the cops or somebody and got the pleasure island guys in jail and saved the donkey-kids.

nobody can ever experience those twists the way they were intended
I'm still inordinately proud of that.
i've never actually seen the movie but i've read the book so it won't be a surprise if i watch it
