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

Regular loaves of bread have pre-slicing technology figured out, so what is it with bagels and English muffins? (midwest.social)

often toasting the outside more than the inside

So, unless I'm mistaking your meaning that's where I'd flip each bagel half 180 degrees before putting it in the toaster so the inside half faces the "more toasty" side of the toaster's heating elements...unless I'm completely misunderstanding you?

flip…180 degrees

I tried that as well, but it didn’t work, I think the bagels were too thick to have it work properly. It just comes down to bad design, imho.
