To get things started, I was frustrated that the dimmer switch of my new livingroom made it impossible to install my ceiling fan there, but now that I got a Vive equipment set up, I realize that if the fan was where I wanted it, it would definitely have been pummeled to splinters and glass shards by players flailing under it.
Last year I bought a car for Mad Max -style tuning, but it turns out the Finnish law made most of the planned modifications implausibly difficult so I settled to just welding fins on it. I was very depressed about that until I moved to a new city with highway connections, where most of my driving happens at high speeds and the aerodynamics matter a lot more than at my old hometown. If I had managed to do what I originally planned, my car would have been impractically uneconomic where I currently live.
