Wasted 3 months on a free project management tool before switching to a paid one

Nah man I gotta disagree lol. I think the problem is people overcomplicate it. Trello is perfect if you treat it like a to-do list not a project management system. I've had like 50 cards in there before and it was fine cause I just moved stuff between three columns and ignored everything else.

Spent $45 on a fancy digital scale and it just saved my sourdough starter

Has anyone tried testing their old scale with a known weight like a bag of sugar to see how far off it really was? Ive heard of cheap scales being off by 10 or 15 grams, which messes with hydration a lot. But I see @christopher_craig point too, temp and activity level matter a ton.

Spent $200 on a fancy mandoline I never use now

A twenty dollar Kyocera ceramic slicer does the same job and won't rust if you forget to dry it. The guard is still annoying but at least you're not out two hundred bucks if you ditch it. Maybe that Benriner is really for people doing fifty pounds of potatoes at a time, not a Tuesday night stir fry.

Stuck on the side of I-95 because my 2014 Focus transmission gave out at 60,000 miles

55k miles and already needing a TCM replacement? Man, that is wild. I thought my car was bad but that takes the cake. Did it start shuddering right from the get go or did it take a few years to show up? I bet that was a fun bill to get hit with.

That batch of shutter fluid from eBay almost ruined 3 cameras

Saw a repair guy on YouTube warn about the same thing last month.
