The reason I suggest diectly going to janitorial supply is because you get the off-label stuff which is basically all the same chemicals for a good discount.
It’s not “zep brand pro industrial floor cleaner super duper wizbang” or anything, it will come in a blank jug with mixing ratios and the WHMIS info printed on it. Brands are for the public, janitorial supply is for frugal quality.
Same thing with oven cleaner, it will just come in a can that says “concentrated oven cleaner”.
At most you might see something vague like “Bottled by XYZ Chem co, Montreal”. Because that’s all that happens with industrial soaps, degreasers, lubricants, etc - some factory buys a bunch of 240 gallon drums, and squirts them into smaller bottles.
If you must search online, use Zep but seriously it’s so much better just to go in person.
Controversial opinion perhaps, but I think because in general humans aren’t funny and they don’t really have anything new to add to anything. Babies love to see the same joke a million times, it never stops being funny to them, but it’s something that only changes a little as we age and not as much as we would think to think about ourselves.
It seems that some people are having trouble following the conversation and a basic stream of topical logic.
The initial premise was that somebody could see your passwords by pwning your machine… And using that to… Turn on webcam so they could steal your password so they could… pwn your machine?
I worked for years in tech, and adjacent to marketers and sales people.
I know from direct experience that people want relevant advertisements for things that will solve a problem in their lives.
Going back to my example, I would very much appreciate an advertisement for a cigar store that will either give me a discount, introduce a new product to me, or deliver my product on my schedule.
I also make and buy mechanical toys, and I’ve had an interest in them for decades. I would really appreciate an ad that highlights a new collection of mechanical puzzles.
But instead I get badgered by Google ads for things that are nuisances and of no relevance to my life.
Instead of sharpening service for the professional barber clippers I own, because Google knows I cut my own hair, I get advertisements for Manscaped.
I steadfastly maintain there is an opportunity to advertise to people in a helpful way, but Google doesn’t do it.
I’ve been thinking for like 10 years that phones should have calibration functions specifically for the keyboard.
I have big hands, I am talking about palm a basketball sized hands. This makes it nearly impossible for me to ever hit the letter I think I’m hitting. Surely there’s enough computing power available now to figure this out.

Have you read the Unabombers manifesto?
I remember reading it many years ago. He made some good points - which is disconcerting....
Why are most memes on Lemmy from 5-10 years ago?
I’m glad people are active, but why are the most upvoted memes things from years ago? Bots? Users desperate for content?

What's a button you hate tapping or clicking accidentally?
For me, it’s “Clear Storage”. Sometimes I try to clear the cache of some mobile game I’m playing and end up deleting all my progress instead.
