Ive one of these- they were selling them at the Sams Club and I have a lot of fun with it. Definitely recommend using Morton kosher salt with it. Seems to strike the right balance between mass and aerodynamics...

A funny story from when I was younger ... there was a candidate running for County Commissioner who lived in my neighborhood and had a local auto-parts store. County Commissioners are paper pusher yet for some reason, as if his position mattered, someone asked whether he was for or against the death penalty. His answer was "regular or extra crispy". This was when the electric chair was still in use ... and there was one about 10 miles from where I'm sitting. I already knew he was a little "out-there" but this statement alone kept him from being elected. While we'd had three horrible commissioners, this statement made him seem "more horrible".
It's interesting in thinking about it that I've found this story more and more disturbing as I've gotten older. Being an introvert and being raised as a stoic german (by descent at least) meant that I've had to grow my ability to empathize through experience. My son was opposed to the death penalty before I was. I might even still have caveats.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Because it doesn't require multiple Kubernetes clusters spun up on 5 different geographical regions for fault tolerance with 3 different vendors to run. It works too well so people would rather downvote the advice for which kind of salt to use.

Does it leave a bunch of salt on your floor? Stuff like grainy sand on my hardwood floors is one of my pet peeves... does this not create that feeling?
> It is possible to shoot flies out of the air. There is nothing else like it. I mean, personally, I just spray them with Windex. (Which doesn’t so much kill them as stop them from being able to fly temporarily, at which point you can find them on the ground trying to slowly walk away, and do as you will with them.) And it has the convenient property that you already probably have a sprayer-bottle of it in your house…
With age I came to conclusion that anything making killing of any kind even remotely fun is utterly wrong. It might be necessary with dangerous insects, but it should not be fun or recreational.
I have yet to meet the Jain who has studied cellular biology.

Would be interesting to try with diatomaceous earth.
