    For some reason they also ask how many you need.

    I’ve done that once, and honestly wrote I needed four screws. A few days later I got an envelope with like, 20 screws. I get it, but still found it a bit funny.

    … What? I have Ikea furniture that’s lasted 10+ years, through 5+ moves including disassembly and reassembly every time. Nothing took more than 20 minutes to assemble, and I definitely believe this furniture can outlive me.

    This was over 20 years ago, so I don’t know and/or remember, point is I had no idea what I was doing, possibly just trying to build a window manager or something then? All I remember is only having a CLI and feeling like I couldn’t get anything to work.

    In general, I feel l like Europeans experience a healthy amount of shame in situations like these, like USians completely lack.

    I’d lie awake at night for the rest of my life because of the shame I’d feel knowing I left something behind looking as trashed as that.
