Get two of the cast iron skillets and you can use them for weight training, killing two birds with one stone.

What do you mean? I’ve never had any range problems with my Chromecast

Streaming from a computer is rather simple, especially if you use Plex.

There’s a link above to an article about lining the pan with parchment to make brownie removal easier. Screw. That. I happen to enjoy scraping the parts of the brownie people leave in the pan and eating that. Like bonus brownie.

Can you imagine the psychological damage to these kids? This is nothing less than child abuse by the state.

What does more irreparable damage....

The cords on the cheap ones I would buy from Monoprice wouldn’t break. Instead, the plugs themselves started fitting loosely in my phone’s port and the connection would become intermittent. I’ve been trying out Amazon Basics cables as replacements, hoping they last longer.

Mint.com and remembering nothing worth doing is ever easy.

My Macbook Pro was stolen a while back and after not living with it for a while I realized that I only used a small fraction of its capability. I replaced it with a Toshiba Chromebook 2 and I freaking love it. It’s light, stylish and does everything I want. The screen resolution is amazing. The only shortcoming it has…

Why not just start your own business and get rich! Come on, it’s easy!

Download/upload whatever they want without waiting very long.

Pssh, who’s gonna know if you just make it all up? They’ll be all “Whitson, what a cool feature, great idea, even if I can’t actually verify that 2008 was the year Lifehacker landed on the Moon.” If all else fails, just rank them numerically.

Hoping your final Top 10 list is ranking the 10 years of Lifehacker in order from worst to best.

Eric, I’ve got a tip which could really be a whole post. Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window. It’s much faster than Right-clicking on Computer. No one I’ve shown it to has known about it.

I made a wonderful mead a few years back (technically a Malomel, that’s the proper term for a fruit mead). Super easy to make. I persoanlly am not a fan of pasturing the honey prior to fermentation, as it can cook off some of the floral flavors in the honey.

Mead is perhaps the easiest fermented beverage to make yourself. It doesn’t care if you let it get too hot (like beer does) and doesn’t mind light exposure (like wine does). Here’s a great, super simple recipe that is impossible to screw up and makes a delicious, sweet, fruity mead:

I just bought a house and 2 of the 3 toilets in the house were leaking due to old flappers. If you’ve never replaced a toilet flapper before they are pretty easy and only require a pair of needle nose pliers to replace. It was my first time replacing the flapper and I just watched a youtube video to figure it out.

As a Redditor who could care less about this whole mess, it’s been like going to a restaurant where you just want to sit down for a salad, and the patrons are screaming for the head chef to be fired because they kicked some customers out for pooping in a booth you’ve never seen and fired one of the nice waitresses…
