My field recorder! Chilling after band practice right now, and being able to clearly listen back to my jams has been invaluable in progressing my musicianship.

The toilet. Lost count of the number of times this has saved me from getting dysentery or something and it's so convenient when it just pushes the shit away from my house and I never have to see or smell it again. I almost feel bad that I repay it for all its done by repeatedly shitting in it.
I was going to say the paper but you're absolutely right
ice machine. gets hot out on the shop floor even with fans going
Not me, that's for damned sure.
My wife.
Same! Mine's smart, entertaining, manages my social life, probably contributes more to society than I ever will and on top of that, for reasons that still escape explanation, actually wants to have sex with me which is probably the only reason I never turned into an incel. She is easily the best thing in this house, myself included.
Right there with you. Sheβs amazing. Plans all our trips. Organizes the kids. Lets me do the things I do best. Perfect travel buddy. To wives!π»
The answer is electricity. It's so useful, we take it for granted. Your phones, computers and laptops are not useful if you can't power them.
I'll give the people on the dunny their due: toilet paper is still useful in a room without electricity.
gotta be either the tiny computer i'm typing this on, or the large, sturdy, wooden stick in the corner. if i had to pick to keep just one though, it'd be the phone. a sturdy stick has a million and one uses, but it's also fairly easily replaceable.
Computer.
A fridge and dishwasher! Food safety is such a huge contribution to our health
Toilet paper
And lotion
I used to have a bottle of water but I drank it, so... bed?
Outside of my brain and body?
Probably my mobile phone
My brain, second is my body, third is my laptop
The doctor.
My pc but that's too easy so I choose my bed as the very next thing. Good comfortable sleep is important.
Towel warmer.
Weed
For almost everyone it's gonna be the phone we're reading this on.
Toilet
Poop, pee, and in a pinch: hand washing and hydration.
The manager likely thinks itβs him, but itβs actually all the workers that do the work.
Most useful? Without a doubt, my laptop. The amount of things that can be done with a modern computer is pretty stunning, and a portable one is arguably more useful.
Other than that, maybe my car keys because the amount of things you can do with a car is stunning, but you need the keys to start it, and the car isn't in this room.
Iβm in the ER. Probably the doctor standing directly in front of me.
I'm in my car.
The car.
Same, might say the keys.
Air. Canβt go more than a minute or two without it, and thereβs enough to share!
Laptop probably. Linux, tmux, i3, vim, GCC, GDB, Pdb, gplaces, links2, curl, wget, netcat, awk, sed... what more could be needed for happiness?
Idunno, but it's preloaded with shittons of tools I don't even know the use of yet (thanks kali). Excluding that probably my lensatic compass. It's nice, quite cheap and not magnetically dampened but it does the job.
Pumpkin spice old fashioned. With real pumpkin puree!
Me? Unless Iβm excluded, then the laptop. Although the room itself is pretty useful, but I donβt think I consider it βin the roomβ.
A fucking pistol.
Home server.
A 5gal jug full of water. (I don't have AC and it's 32C/90F inside)
Consume salt! Water on its own isn't great for hydrating when you're continously sweating, Gatorade exists for a reason (to supplement the nutrients lost to sweating, not just the water)
No worries. Gone through 2.5kg(~9lbs) of Gatorade powder, just this summer. LiquidIV got way too expensive after the first box.
