Look, it's nigh-on a miracle if you happen to buy the one fridge in 3,120,423 that, by sheer happenstance, is able to maintain a constant temperature, so don't bother talking to me about smart fridges.

So I was in the restroom, minding my own business, reading the paper when some asshat walks in, mutters, turns the light out and runs out. Fortunately, my phone has a pretty good light on it so no problem. When I find that guy...

Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

I kid you not: I did that deed to a professor I worked for, when I happened to be in the neighborhood of that university, for roughly twenty years.
He shut a light off on me whilst I was taking an exam and walked down the hall chuckling.
So, when I observed him enter the bathroom, and in a stall, I paused to allow him to be seated comfortably. I started a tradition of
"Wipe In The Dark!"
There were numerous adventures as he tried to find a safe retreat in the eight-floor structure. I usually found him.

Rather than depriving an instructor of light, I once help to add illumination to a teacher's experience in a dark room. A high school photography instructor, to be specific. Knowing that he planned to use our school darkroom after school for his personal "collection" of images, I thoughtfully replaced the red safelight bulb with a standard-size magnesium flash bulb. I'm sure it was an enlightening experience for him.

Writing articles get harder when you are not actually coding for work! Great motivation is needed with that little free time.
Jez, I need to pick up my pen and pad again (well, I think a keyboard, with CPU and monitor will do)  . Motivation needed

If you pick up your keyboard, with CPU and monitor isn't that going to make it kinda hard to type?
I'd leave them on the desk to give me two free hands.

Finding the right motivation is definitely key.
If nothing else, how about you try contributing to an open source project? It'll give you the opportunity to try something new while at the same time contributing to something that others will benefit from.
