Did anyone else find this solution to be hilariously technical, whereas a simple cleanup might’ve done the trick? Very cool, but struck me as very funny.

- tjoff 7y agoTypical procrastination :) I could totally see myself do the same thing just for the fun of it and to see if it works. Wasting a ton of time when cleaning would be quicker and something that needed to be done regardless. But on the other hand, one probably wouldn't find the time to try out wifi triangulation if there wasn't some need for it. So that is something!
- asdfman123 7y agoYeah, I've thought of very elaborate technical ways to keep track of my keys, phone and wallet. But the best solution is to have just like 1-3 places in your house you're only allowed to put them. It takes a few weeks to get into the habit, but once you do it's incredibly easy to find them again.
- cesarb 7y agoDepending on how big the house is and how much stuff it has (being a parent's house increases the chance that they lived there for long enough to accumulate a lot of stuff), this hilariously technical solution might actually have taken less time than a "simple cleanup". A single cabinet full of stuff can take several hours to properly organize, and a house can have dozens of them. On the other hand, https://xkcd.com/530/ https://xkcd.com/530/

- lkbm 7y agoMy parents have more books than a lot of bookstores I've been to. If a Kindle somehow got shelved or put into one of the boxes of books, it could be a lot of cleanup to find it.
