You could also put up a piece of white 1/4 round over the gap. Saves the risk of damaging the nicer trim.

Hey, that’s the name of my math rock band.

Hell, why not? If you have something which generates heat, why not capture that heat and put it to use?

More shareholder value!

Population cannot increase forever. Resources are finite.

Early 2000s? Try mid 70s. That’s when all the electronically controlled stuff and emissions sensors came in. Pre-emissions cars are dead simple to make work.

Now do cars.

Same, strong down force, but use a square driver ( Robertson screw).

Oh, Canada.

Screwdriver bit, there are lots of them. JIS (Japanese Industry Standard) screwdriver bits are different from Phillips. They have a shallower angle on their blades, and while a Phillips bit will “fit,” it won’t seat all the way down into the screw head. When higher torque is required to tighten or loosen the screw, a Phillips screwdriver will strip a JIS screw, and vice versa.

As others have mentioned, carefully drill it out with a teeny tiny drill bit, maybe make use of a teeny tiny easy-out. Replace with a slightly larger screw or just leave it empty.

And you might even - wait for it - come across things that you weren’t expecting to, or don’t fully agree with. Being exposed to ideas like that is much healthier than being fed what an algorithm decides will elicit engagement from you.

I’m just sad that basically nobody I know personally actually uses the fediverse

oooOOOooooo look at this one, they know people personally.

My vacuum cleaner. You know how the roller brush gets all tangled up with hair and threads and whatnot, and the way you fix that is to remove the roller and cut it all out?

The external screws are torx security bits. The internal screws are Phillips. The only reason is to get someone who isn’t persistent to go buy a new vacuum cleaner when their roller gets tangled

Before anyone complains about energy density of these being less than lithium, the applications where these are used would reduce the demand for lithium, making lithium cheaper and/or more available for other purposes where sodium-ion wouldn’t work.
