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. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
The DVD screensaver was perfect: unobtrusive and did what it was supposed to do: prevent your CRT screen from burning-in an image. On top of that, it gave you something to look forward to when it would perfectly hit a corner (which some people thought was a myth; sadly the GIF version does not).
Now, any screen in your home is fair game for intrusive ads. Why make something simple, elegant, functional, and unobtrusive when that otherwise idle (or even in-use!) screen can be crammed with ads.
Spoiler: The GIF doesn't. Will spare you the time I wasted waiting for it lol.
Boooooo! What a tease. That gif should be ashamed of itself.
I know right? If you can find a better one that pays out, send me a link and I'll happily update the post. I couldn't find one that wasn't forced and only went in the corner.
Dang. I see what you mean, lots of videos of the screensaver but not many gifs with the sweet spot of a corner. But I did find one that immediately puts out the goods
