Modern LED bulbs tend to overdrive the LEDs to a point where they last about as long as incandescent bulbs in my experience. It also allows them to use fewer LEDs, driving cost down. They could last so much longer…

I do like to buy high power ones (100W equivalent ones), open them, and lower the drive current by increasing the driver shunt’s resistance. I haven’t had a single one of those fail. (Don’t do this unless you’re a professional, mains power stuff can be fatal!)

It’s not a loss if they never made the money in the first place.

I love how you can see the trees through the little water droplets.

I always like to put stuff back in the right spot in store shelves, and fix it if I notice something misplaced or fallen down. It’s just a small thing for me to do, but I know I take a little annoyance out of someone’s workday.
