I'm certainly not an expert on electrical mathematics, but doesn't it lower the lifespan of the battery to charge it at a higher amperage as well? I'm very big into vaping, myself, and I've always seen people caution others to charge at .5 amps if at all possible since 1 or 2 amps, while possible, can shorten the

There's an entire hemisphere that currently has summer months instead of winter months this time of year. ;)

Honestly, many people who are very experienced and skilled with a knife, especially when they use good tools (this guy seems to) don't often worry much about cutting themselves when cutting towards themselves. The main reason this is advised against is when there is a significant possibility of the knife being hung

And now I know what I will be watching for the next... FOREVER.

Man, you must have been pretty bored to post a comment on Christmas on a 4+ year-old post. I'm not religious, I'm an atheist, my point was that hitting someone back in a fist-fight usually escalates the problem. If you can take a hit without flinching, however, most people will back the hell off after they hit you

Exactly. Some people don't make enough to cover their expenses, let alone save up. I was thinking pretty much the same thing. Between child support, taxes, my car payment and insurance I barely make enough to scrape by most months. Granted, most of that is because my car payments are much higher than I should've

That was my beef, too. I do not like that phrase being used in this context at all. It is completely possible.

Except that, no, that item doesn't work with the Keurig 2.0, and according to Keurig they're not making one that will: "The Keurig® 2.0 brewer is the first Keurig® brewer to feature Keurig 2.0 Brewing Technology to brew a cup and a carafe. Keurig 2.0 Brewing Technology enables the brewer to recognize the inserted

Anyone looking to make this a permanent change and not something that requires a keypress, there is a free program called "BetterTouchTool" that has built in a functionality for this. BetterTouchTool is the only one I've found that actually does it correctly and works (I wish RightZoom did, but it's broken with

Yeah, my vehicle loan was taken out when I had more money coming in per paycheck coming in than I do now, so it's been a burden for a while. Thankfully the last payment is next month's, finally something to look forward to.

I'm so very sorry that I shared my opinion, one that some other people seem to agree with. I don't know why it's offended you so. Perhaps you should calm down.

I do find it curious that others find it harder to read, but perhaps I should have said it makes it easier to SCAN a paragraph, and also to pick up if I left off in the middle of one. Seeing a small gap tells me at a glance that a sentence ends and a new one begins. Different people have different views, though, so

I kind of do this with my truck payment since it's one of my larger payments and I've had problems with paying it on time on occasion. Basically, I get paid and I make half of my truck payment. They've said they'll accept my two payments separately throughout the month, so it only took a little planning to get ahead

The really interesting thing is that online, like here on Lifehacker, websites automattically remove the second space anyways. I've always done it as well, it's pure habit at this point. It really does make it easier, even with variable-width fonts, to read paragraphs. It highlights where one sentence ends and the

A big pro on this tip is also the fact that you and your friend don't have to BOTH find sitters, or if you like to use the same sitter you don't have to fight over them. Good babysitters can be very hard to find and sharing one this way could save a friendship. ;)

I've noticed it before as well. I accidentally started music at WORK one day while I was at home trying to play Spotify on my iPhone.

*inserts the "The More You Know" video* Seriously, I wasn't aware at all since (like most people) I'm only involved with them in a culinary aspect and peppers especially are often referred to as a vegetable in that respect. Thanks for the info.

You just surprised and informed me. I glossed over the "fruit" portion of the article and I, too, had always assumed that pumpkins were vegetables. Maybe it's just because of all the seeds and how most of the fruits I consume don't have anything like that kind of quantity, but some vegetables (peppers come to mind

The Pusheen stickers are the whole reason I like the stickers. Mainly because they're animated, like the comic. It's adorable.

Not to start an argument, just stating that some people DO use "no" in a coy or roleplaying way. This is not true for MOST people, however, and it's usually something that you want to be clear on before getting involved since it should never be the default reaction. The default reaction should be "oh, shit, I'll
