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

I go by a Tesla charging station every day and see cars there for up to several hours. This seems like a waste of a huge chunk of your personal time so owning an electric vehicle sucks in that respect imo. What are people doing or can do that is productive during this wait time?

My car gets about 250 miles on a charge, so I'm only ever at a public charger if I'm taking a trip longer than that. At that point my day is pretty much fucked by traveling, and it's actually really nice get off the road for an hour. Usually I find a nearby coffee shop and work on the same stuff I would at home, and when I get back on the road I can feel that I'm alert and focused.
