The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

I am attempting to update items using Android SDK Manager. I'm on a i7 and relatively high-speed connection and the SDK Manager just eats everything.
Anyways, I started type in Google search...
"why is android sdk..."
and I got the rest
"... manager so slow"
If it's a Google Meme, you know it's bad. It is. Bad.

Friggin' ironing must be the worst chore ever!
Iron one wrinkle out, iron three wrinkles back in!
And the wrinkles you're ironing in are a lot harder to iron out than the ones you were trying to get out in the first place!
If you're not careful you'll burn and scar yourself for the rest of your life!
It's no coincidence the iron literally gets hot as HELL!
My shirts look like they've been ironed, but poorly done... Wrinkles around my shoulders, over my chest and around my arms.
I've put my soul into it! Ten minutes a shirt!
I'm only ironing my shirts and I've got three... All other days I'm wearing clothing that looks just as well unironed.
I'll just wear sweaters and jumpers from now on! 
Who would've thought that the hardest part of being a software engineer would be the ironing...?

Seriously.. buy a tumble dryer ... just damp, just a few minutes, get them out of there asap, hang them up ... job done. Changed my life

Expensive... Still cheaper than a woman though

Then don't iron. If you wear ironed shirts women will assume you're married (or gay). Wearing wrinkled shirts is seen as a cry for help.

"I need a women", why on CP ? Hang around eHarmony.

"I need a woman"
You'll prolly have to iron your own shirts anyway with today's woman so find another reason.

Ah. Missed the ironing part.  . But he can negotiate with the lucky one

Here, in Bangalore, India, the 'Iron Man' (not Iron Woman  ) at the street corner charges Rs. 7 per cloth item (shirt or pant); that's about a tenth of a Euro per shirt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If it wasn't for the reliability and speed of parcel services there would be a business opportunity right there.
|
|
|
|
|
Does it cost less to transport our Iron Man to the street corner over there?
But, then, there would be several Iron Men needed, to the different street corners.
|
|
|
|
|
Possibly, but the Iron Man would have quite different costs of living and wouldn't cost Rs. 7 any more.
And right thereafter he would realize that he could make more money by opening a restaurant.

Absolutely yes.
On a side note, I am still to understand why simple living* is often termed as having a low standard of living. IMHO, such a simple living is perhaps the most sustainable one.
* where needs are fewer, and the money needs are also considerably lesser.

As far as I'm concerned they should measure living standard in leisure time. (Where Leisure != Procrastination)

I have to iron my own shirts, and Herself's uniforms (after Herself left an iron shaped burn mark on one of them - expensive to replace!)
I hate the job, but...
1) Use a steam iron, and lots of steam.
2) Be smooth and don't try to rush it because it's a dull job. The only difficult bits are the front left because of the pocket (iron upwards only near the pocket) and sleeves near the cuff.
3) Buy good quality shirts. If you buy cheap sh#t, they are harder to iron (and don't last as long either)
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

0) Set the iron to the temperature recommended on the label.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
--Winston Churchill

Tell me that wasn't the plan by Herself from the beginning.
I see who the Engineer in the family is. She's Engineered you just right.
