Yes. Several clothes pegs, but lots of smaller made for the job things.

Re resealing afterwards: hands up if your kitchen cupboards bristle with clothes-pegs.

Oh yes. I know some disapprove, but to them I say fiddlesticks.

We have an assortment of middle-class clothespegs of indeterminate (but probably the likes of Canadian Tire Wilkos or Home Bargains, definitely not Ikea) origin.  Barakta can work the clips on about half of them; such things requiring a relatively forceful pincer-grip, especially if there's something substantial being clamped.

We did have some actual clothespegs, which she preferred on account of their mechanical advantage.  They've all suffered brittle plastic death.  Wood would appear to be the superior material here.

I note that the middle-class ones do a better job of both staying put and crumb containment when you have half a packet of biscuits or whatever rattling around in a bag, which makes them a useful cycle tourist accessory.

I use magnets. I don't trust magnetism, but I figure that if I eat magnetic pasta, it's practically a superpower.

Half a packet of biscuits, sorry does not compute.

[Jaded]

Indeed.

Much like Eric the half a Bee.

We have a drawer of these (or similar).

Well, they are middle-class clothespegs from the middle-class coach parties' kitchen shop.

How much wood would a clothes peg peg if a.... No, not that. In their clothes pegging use, the plastic ones seem far more liable to pinging into fuckits than the wooden ones.

I just want to know what makes a clothes peg "middle-class"!

I bought a few of these last summer is an attempt to find something that wouldn't get eaten by the dog...

I feel that I may have hit peak middle-class...

I have no clothes pegs and I swear I'm middle class. I sneer at chavs and the only reason I go to Lidl is for cheap gin, so I must be.

Proprietary data stacks.

Why won’t my whittings bathroom scales easily share MY data with the apps of MY choice. In the 21st century I should not need to be manually entering my weight into the diet app and the fitness monitoring app I have chosen to use just because some marketeer wanker thinks by making me do so will force me to by one of their watches a d use their fitness app so they can collect more data about my habits.

In some instances you can use IFTTT to copy data between services. Although last time I tried this it couldn’t cope with the data being stored in stones and pounds, because they hate our beautiful country.

There are two ot three suggested solutions out there, using intermediary database and the like, but none of them are straightforward and most use Someone Else’s Computer ™ to store the data. I’ve not looked too deeply into it, so I don’t know if it’s a lake of an API to expose the data to third parties or a lack of the second vendor being willing to develop an interface to suck third party data in. I suspect it’s a bit of both.

[Jaded]

Isn't your weight private data, so not good to have it easily shared across apps?

no, because you can’t identify a person from it.
