In Roman insulae, they often slept in windowless rooms. Many of them also woke before sunrise. They were generally woken by slaves, roosters and the increasing noise from people outside.

In British supermarkets, they often don't even put the beans on shelves. Instead they have stacked palettes of them, because they need to restock so often it'd be inefficient to have to unpack and shelve them.

Are you American though? Here in the UK, nobody really owns a plunger and they don't need to, the plumbing is different, it doesn't clog. Do need to own a toilet brush though, to wipe off the skidmarks, which is more rare in the US.

Those names were chosen because they stereotypically fit these people, like Karen does a Karen. But popular names and connotations change over time. I feel like Stacy is a name befitting of an older person now than originally intended for the memes. I wonder if we're going to collectively keep these names locked in time, or rename them ever

Making grey 0, black the highest and intense red the lowest above 0 is a weird palette choice

Spanish, is this Latin America? Because if so, then damn, the movies were correct, even the BSOD has an orange tint to it

This is messing with my sense of scale. I thought it was a little model next to a pothole

Not a car, but I've got a bicycle light that does this. Turns on when it's dark and also when you brake. So definitely possible
