I didn't think so.

Just saw the plain 1-piece ones in the $1 bins at our local supermarket.

Another question that helps:

We have a couple. Love them. We call them 'artificial thumbnails', since if we didn't have these, that's what we'd be scraping away at those bits with.

Damn, people! Almost every metro area has an (at least) annual medical waste disposal event. Milwaukee Wisconsin's "Medicine Collection Day" is this Saturday, in fact. Co-hosted by the DEA, the local police dept and the sewerage district. They make it utterly painless, setting up in a large parking lot, where you

You probably already know most metals shouldn't be put in the microwave unless you want a sparks and lights show. The list of other things you shouldn't put in the microwave is pretty long, but there are also some unusual, non-destructive ways to use your microwave.

I wish to hell Krogers (who run Pick & Save, where I do most of my shopping) would make my own cursed data available to me — I provide their keyfob thinger for scanning at each checkout — that data's useful to me, too! Is there any movement anywhere to get retailers to share?

I started flossing consistently after getting a crown left me with a perfect food-collector of a gap between two teeth. Always hated the finger-strangling thing, so stocked up on those little picks that look like miniature swords. They come in a range of prices/qualities, and it pays not to get the cheapest.

And if it rusts, recycle the metal and replace it.

Use a plain, flat grater, not a box grater. If you typically use it for cheese, keep it in a large-size baggie between uses, until the dishwasher is ready to run.

It isn't. Search history is, but generally not browsing history. Oddly, much (but not all) of my own browsing history is, but others' that I've looked at isn't. I can't figure out what I did in my Chrome settings to make it so.

Bing may save your search history and make it available to you from any login — I don't know. This is about web browsing history. Doubt Bing provides that.

What's a source for a decent diy screen-protector material (I can cut a rectangle myself to save a few bucks)?

Thanks, @young_zaphod. I looked around and searched their site and didn't find that product line either, so sent them an email. No reply. Sigh.

I haven't tried it and won't until some trustworthy someone with some serious knowledge of this stuff assures me it's safe. I don't know why Lifehacker would even post about a service that requires access to your accounts without also providing that kind of assurance.

FYI, when you go to your account on the web, there's a new area called "Links", which lists all the links you've created to share out. You can delete any of them, thereby rendering the previously shared links inoperative.

+1 about not overheating nonstick pans. I have paid more than I should have for name-brand fancy-schmancy pans (knowing as I did it that I was wasting my money), and I've bought pans in my working-class neighborhood warehouse-style supermarket. It's one of the latter that's lasted me longest. This pan has a
