A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

🎶 One hundred and ninety nine bugs in the code, one hundred and ninety nine bugs! 🎶
🎶 *You take one down, patch it around, six hundred and forty-eight bugs in the code!*🎶
Looks back at the mountain of dead equipment that was used, tested, built, redesigned, failed or didn't function in order to get to this point
Patch Notes: Fixed a memory leak. But that caused the sleep Guage to overflow back to 0 constantly. Waiting for the next software upgrade in 10,000 years to fix it.
