That poor cat, that whole tip is predicated on laziness. I sincerely hope that the litter box is cleaned more than once a week, as the video implies. There is so much wrong with that video. First, don't use liners... then the box wouldn't even be necessary. Liners only get caught on your cat's claws (I understand…

Too bad cats won't stay in the same room as the vacuum or we'd be all over that groomer attachment too.

I had read that about the trigger and the battery issue. With Dyson's great warranty I'm not too concerned about that. I also get similar issues with the hair in the canister in my upright so I can live with that.

Love my Dyson DC 25 Animal. With 3 cats it's a must have, it's scary how much filth ends up in the canister each week.

I want one of these so bad. We have the DC25 Animal we got when we had all carpet. Moved and we now have mostly hardwood. It's such a pain to drag out a full vacuum just to pick up the little messes and tumbleweeds from our cats.

I'm not even remotely mechanically inclined and let a pro do everything. However, regarding finding a mechanic you can trust, I do have a simple suggestion.

Master of Music major here and can attest. Spent 1.5 years unemployed and now working full time in higher education, no where near related to my degree field. Unfortunately, at least half my friends who didn't become music teachers are the same way. The ones who are working in music make shit money too. They don't…

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! That is amazing. I had read elsewhere it was (can't recall where) and couldn't find anything to refute it therefore I believed it. That seriously just made my day. And I'm about to leave work 3 hours early to buy beer, meet friends for more beer and pizza and expecting a $1500 mattress to be…

This was one of a few incentives I considered when taking my current job. I work as one of only two staff members for a satellite campus of a private, but non-profit, university. We moved 3 months ago and I hated my old job. I had a few options but ended up here even though it was a pay cut. It's more a setting…

Yeah, not a fan of the bagging system. But in the end, it does make the lines go faster because there are always baggers waiting for a register rather than the other way around. Also keeps carts out of the parking lot and overall makes the commissary more efficient.

I agree it being forced on you isn't ideal but…

I installed iTunes on my newest desktop because I used it on my previous computer and my library was setup for iTunes. It just seemed logical to continue using it. It always ran slow but I attributed that to an aging computer and my 200 gig library being on an aging external HDD connected via USB 2.0.

very true, and then you have to hope that the cops on scene aren't idiots. Also means you end up waiting on a police report to get the other person's info and those can take up to 10 days to be ready. Then you have to hope that all the info on it is accurate. As a former claims rep for GEICO, I can't tell you how…

Collision insurance will pay to repair damage to your car but not other cars. Still, it's a great way to ensure you aren't left without a car if yours is damaged. Also, consider uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage from your own carrier, says attorney Keith Franchini of Albuquerque, N.M. That way, your insurer…

Our issue is that we just always go on the weekend, when everyone else does. My wife is active duty and I actually work on base, but the commissary between 4-5:30 is my definition of hell. After a day of work, neither of us are interested in shopping. We also tend to use everything in the pantry, then go back and…

Commissaries don't have store brands but the lower prices and tax free spending makes up for it. For those that use coupons, they accept all coupons in addition to their pricing (too lazy myself, don't buy in bulk due to storage, and like to buy what I want, not what's on sale). Clearly it's not available to…

Do you mean remove the file name of the actual video on your computer? If so then Sickbeard has a renaming postscript that is run within sabnzbd and you may need to look that over to make sure it knows to leave the name as part of the renaming. That is the only way it has any control over file names so it sounds…

Sickbeard, it does everything I need in regards to tracking TV shows.

I currently run ESET Internet Security in combo with Malwarebytes. I've considered switching ESET to Avast based off of Lifehacker's suggestions. However, I haven't taken the time yet to determine if Avast offers the same protection in the form of firewalls, email and attachments scanning, phishing and other…

I worked for GEICO for a while, and you don't want to rent from an airport. They charge outrageous fees and are typically twice the price. They have a captive audience, people at the airport that need a car now. So they can charge more.

Great article. I'll probably point people this way when they start asking me about their Android phones. For me, full use of Tasker, ability to run Franco kernel, block ads, and remove crapware are the main reasons. I rooted my Galaxy Nexus day 1 just so I could install Franco kernel and not interrupt any of my…
