Coconut oil (the good stuff... virgin, expeller pressed, etc) has worked great for me. I've had two burns in the last three months (both were mostly unavoidable due to bad timing and preparation), but I saturated my burned areas with coconut oil and A) got immediate relief and B) never even peeled. Some primal/paleo…

I use a a steelie like in the pic... only on my iPad Mini, not my phone. My Mini mounts to become my GPS, but the steelie base also lets it connect to objects on my Steelcase desk :)

Something else to consider... almost all hiring contracts/offers will say "contingent upon successful background check" or similar wording. Considering all the identity theft issues these days, there could well be an issue with your background that you are not aware of and that may take time to resolve (ie: proving…

And bookmark this as a reminder... cause every time you update (even minor point releases) you'll need to redo this. Its just the tools to make your dock transparent... Apple will put the defaults back on most every update so you'll need to repeat this after each update.

The lack of any sort of console cable setup makes me wonder how many systems he really has to administer. Maybe they're all Windows? For me I have to deal with SPARC and POWER systems as well as network switches, storage devices, etc. So I always have a USB to serial adaptor, a 9 pin to 25 pin, an ethernet to 9 pin, a…

From "man type" (shell built-in) "... If the -a option is used, type

How does that make sense? The two commands do two totally different things. Locate helps you find the location of a file, much like find does, but assuming updatedb has already been run, then locate just needs to query its database for a file's location versus crawling the filesystem and potentially generating IO…

I just like this cause its an easy way to get the LED on his camera lit up but the app is minimized... if his Dock is set to autohide, he'll never even notice it... I did an iteration of this to a co-worker so often he ended up putting duct tape over his camera. You can also do things like set the system volume... so…

ssh me@friends_mac 'open /Applications/Facetime.app -minimized; say "Dave. Dave. What are you doing Dave. Don't make me disconnect you. Dave"'

On my Mac, I have "locate" as a symlink to "mdfind" :) Keeps me from hitting my head on a wall when I move between systems...

I do a twist on this... basically 16oz of hot coffee or 4 shots of espresso and 2Tbps of organic coconut oil mixed in a blender. On occasion I add a packet of Splenda. The medium chain fatty acids provide for a slow digesting energy source that carries me through the morning. The caffeine gives me a little boost. The…

"Turkey doesn't have significantly higher levels of tryptophan compared to other poultry products. " And to be clear, I never said that it did. However, compared to other poultry, turkey breast is considered to be one of the better forms of lean meat. That and most people tend to associate tryptophan with turkey due…

Its funny what skewed results you can get from focusing too much on one specific thing while neglecting another. Sure cherries are natural sources of melatonin. And sure a banana is a good muscle relaxer and full of tryptophan. But both are high in carbs, specifically sugar carbs. Eating carbs right before bed can…

It might be worth noting that its not quite as simple as "light one end and toss it..." since when you fill the jar halfway, the alcohol gets absorbed into the cork. When you go to use them, the corks will be alcohol soaked all over. So when you grip one end to light the other, you still have alcohol touching your…

You just replied to a comment that was over a month old... I think you need to see a psychiatrist...

I think the dangerous thing here is that to the uninitiated, you could end up doing something illegal and get slapped for it. Most people looking for copyrighted torrents know what they're doing when they hit up thepiratebay, for example. Some may take certain steps to mask their IPs (known MPAA/RIAA blocklist, only…

The article makes it sound like this is a new fad. This fad is old... way old... like in black & white TV old. Maybe this generation doesn't remember black & white TV... or looking out the window when going on roadtrips (you know... cause this was before gameboys and DVD players), but 10 years ago the fad was gulping…

I wonder how this would work on titanium...

"Plus, it's available for all phones." Perhaps you meant to say all Android phones? It certainly isn't available for IOS... nor any dumb or feature phones...
