Amazon does something called commingled inventory, where when you buy an item, they may send you the one that’s closest to you, even if it’s a third-party seller’s. In theory, this cuts shipping time with no real downside, because everything with the same barcode should be the same item.

Since it’s a KonMari-themed post, I’ll share Kondo’s recommendation, which I’ve hopefully remembered correctly: Just put them in a shallow box, so you can take the box down to see them all at once.

Minor nitpick: maybe smell any duplicates before combining them, so as to avoid mixing the stale chili powder with the still-good chili powder.

All of these sound delicious. However, they are actual casseroles already, so we already know they will casserole.

Plus, taking all the large things on the day when the OP already has a truck and people helping just makes sense. Moving in two stages is too big a cost to pay for being excessively concerned about the ex-roommates’ laundry. This is true even if the OP is moving with a pickup truck and a couple friends, because I’m…

Yeah, but if the rate of theft changes as more people realize what they can get away with, then the calculations done when the self checkouts were new may no longer be valid.

I grew up in BC, where it was generally held that Red Rose wasn’t very good tea, because it would get quite bitter if you steeped it for more than a handful of seconds. But I’ve had it more recently here in Alberta and thought it not bad. I wonder if they were shipping the other blend west as well as south at one…

If you’re using “Show Password” on LastPass, it does a pretty good job of making ambiguous characters be not actually ambiguous. Numbers are in red, symbols are in blue, and they use a font that makes the differences between similar characters very clear.

The one time I tried this, the jar leaked, and I had peanut oil all over the counter.

A damp cotton dishcloth also works well for improving your grip on the lid. In my kitchen, it happens to be easier to find a dishcloth than a rubber band or rubber gloves. And it combines well with the hot water method, because it lets you skip drying off the lid.

Having actually looked at the Instant Pot website now, I see that you are correct and I was wrong.

I think the tabs and the adjustible pressure have been on all the new models for a while. You’re just too far ahead of the curve.

I’ve seen it suggested to use stairs for angled pushups, so you can move your hands down one step at a time as you get stronger. I’ve never tried it, because I’ve never had both a desire to get good at pushups and a convenient staircase with space at the bottom at the same time, but it always sounded like a good plan…

Lifehacker cropped it. The full-size map has Vancouver.

Interesting! I’ve had mine for several years and I’ve had no problems. I don’t take it when I travel, but once I tried a Quip and unplugged my Sonicare for probably close to a year, and when I switched back without remembering to plug the Sonicare back in, it was at least a week before the battery died.

I should mention: there are older Philips toothbrushes that aren’t compatible with the fancier heads. I think they’ve all been discontinued. I know someone who had one and had started having trouble finding replacement heads. So don’t get one of those, even if you find one on clearance for really cheap.

My dentist’s recommendation was to buy the cheapest Philips Sonicare I could find, but then get the fancy DiamondClean replacement heads. I actually bought the second-cheapest because the cheapest had half the vibration speed of the rest of the line at the time.

Both. In most tournaments, you play a two-game match each round. There’s an alternate format where you only play one side each round, and there’s a bidding mechanism for choosing which side, but it’s not that widely used.

The Android universe is the setting for the reboot. It’s named that because the setting was first used for the board game Android.
