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

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. 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.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

To save time on things that need to be microwaved for 1:30, I just hit 90 then start. Saves 1 button click.

The fastest way to get one minute on a microwave is to press the "add 30 seconds" button twice

I didn’t realize I was so spoiled. On mine, the 1, 2, and 3 buttons add 1-3 minutes, respectively. And I don’t have to hit start either. I want a minute I press 1, done. 90 seconds would be 1 and +30, two button presses.
