Clean your windshield, inside and out, and polarized sunglasses, or sunglass clips for glasses. And make sure any level of astigmatism you may have is known and corrected for.

If after washing your windshield, it still scatters the incoming light too much, it is probably pitted. You may have to consider replacing it. It is part of maintaining a vehicle. It may suck to be surprised with an expense like that, but the surprise expense of an avoidable accident is much worse. And might not only be expensive.

Every so often I have moments like this where I encounter actual adults out in the wild and am reminded that I am just masquerading, and poorly.

I recently found a new shower cleaner that actually works for the first time, and it cleaned the heavy deposits from my weird local water on my tub in less than five minutes, which normally takes me half and hour or more of scrubbing.

I felt like a superior adult, started sharing the news with all of my fellow grown up children. Maybe some day I’ll identify a funny noise in my car as well and earn my real adult degree.

For those of us adulting along at home, could you tell us the name of the product you used for the shower?

Made by a company called Eco Lab, legitimately made me happy for days every time I saw my tub and remembered it was actually clean.

Please share, if my water was any harder rocks would come out of the tap.

Sweet, thanks! Fingers crossed this will be the answer to my shower woes 🤞

I’m rooting for you! I’m convinced it’s magic so it might even cure diseases, who knows.

We all learn from each other bro. You’re doing great, just for the fact you can recognize good advice. We are all imposters. Keep plugging.

I am an autistic 41 year old man that lives in my parents basement. I just collect information and re-distribute it where it is needed.

I am basically the pre-cursor to an LLM, an LLM made of meat.

If you've ever watched or read anything with that "wise old hermit" that people line up to ask their philosophical questions to. That was an oldendays autistic person of the same type as me. Can't function in society, but has no emotional thinking to cloud their logic. The thing is, no matter how logical the advice was, and how much it made sense in the moment, it may not have been applicable to normal people. Though I am of course aware of the nature and source of my clarity and try to keep it in mind when giving advice. Unlike the wise hermits of old.

Not to say I am always right, and not to say logic is always the correct solution. But it often is, and I often am.

Well as someone who has crewed on race cars and had a hand in building more than a few, not a single word of what you said was wrong.

[–] Delphia@lemmy.world 1 points 29 minutes ago

No no no just because we know the grown up thing to do doesnt mean it happens. It means we grumble about "getting around to it" and dont.

I used to avoid driving at certain times of day because I thought my astigmatism was making it too difficult to see. Turns out it was my windshield! Cost about $400 to to replace
