inSwitched from wire brushes to poly brushes on a 1950s clay flue and the sweep time doubled, so which is it?
Feel your pain on that clock, makes you second guess everything.

inRead that the average desk hides about 10 feet of cable, so is hiding it even worth it or should we just deal with the mess?
Consider how often you actually move things around down there, because a tray and sleeves make it a pain to unplug or swap a cable later. If your setup changes much, the mess is honestly easier to live with than gear that fights you every time. Mine only got tidy once I stopped messing with it, and that was worth more than the $40.

inVent: I tracked my daily driving for a year and hit 9,000 miles, way more than I guessed
People always guess way low on stuff they do every day, and it isn't just driving. Same thing happens with how much time we spend on our phones, how much we eat, how much we actually sleep. We measure the big stuff and ignore the small stuff, but the small stuff runs our lives. Tracking is the only way to find out the truth because our memory is garbage at math. Those 2 mile trips feel like nothing, but you do them four times a day for years and suddenly it's thousands of pounds of CO2 and a car that wears out early. What got me was realizing most of my miles came from trips I could have walked if I just planned ten minutes better.
