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
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- 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.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

"U-turn" isn't more complicated, it's describing the motion literally: making a U-shaped turn
Isn't it more like a n-shaped turn?
It could also be seen as the intersection of 2 sets. But you can't call it an intersection, the name is taken.
∩-turn
Not if you're coming from the other direction.
Doesn't matter, the driver is always the frame of reference
If you want to have to specify lowercase, sure.
Thank you for breaking my brain
