Showerthoughts

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. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

I'm just chuckling at the thought of a USB-to-CCS converter.
Must take over a month for a single charge. lol
It's easy: The input side is the high voltage socket, and the output side is an abyssal cable squid nightmare that sprays out into 128 individual male type C plugs, each on the end of about a 6" long pigtail. By the time you're done plugging all of them in, your vehicle is charged.
Would take a week for my car with the maximum theoretical charge speed of USB C
Since some cars can do v2l (vehicle to load) the oppoite is a valid product, a CCS connector to USB C for driving other loads from the cars pack.
And pray that its not a supercheap product that messes up handshakes. I got a unbranded powerbank from a cousin (temu or something) that pulled enough from her 95w charger to melt the housing before the power brick cut power
