NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Do you mind it when other people ask it of themselves? Maybe not quite as angry, but do you have some bigger objection or is it just that it’s not helpful to you?
No, not at all. I only get upset because I've already asked myself many times to no avail, and the 28th time isn't going to be the ticket.
That’s fair. I’m sorry you experience that. I can’t say I have much to offer by way of alternarives. Kind of why I asked.
It's all good, I've learned to work around it. The camera part wasn't a joke; a couple motion tracking cameras in my work area saves me dozens of hours a year if not more.
I don’t think I even registered that part of your comment. I 100% see the use of cameras.
I was thinking of strips of self adhesive gps tags.
Edit: I have been informed that this is not possible due to size constraints, for things like glasses and remotes. It does exist, however.
The thing is that when we ask ourselves where we would have put that thing, we are asking someone else where they would have put that thing, if we were a person trying to help another person to try and figure out where they put that thing. We just so happen to be the same, thoroughly unhelpful person.
