I'd like the source of the statement that "Detergent can lose some of it's effectiveness after a while" (and of course an apostrophe does not belong in that sentence). I've long bought the 28 lb buckets of Kirkland powder detergent, which last me about 1½ years. I've not noticed any loss of effectiveness.

The worst I've flown on was Korean Air and it's paradisaical compared to the sound of those listed.

Malaysian, anyone?

Disagree on the Ryanair one. YES they try to screw you any way they can. That's their business model! But if you're not a complete idiot and don't LET them screw you over (make sure your luggage is within the weight limit, try not to book at the busiest times, turn up a couple hours in advance, check in online at…

I live in Holland, and I had the dubious honor of flying with United with my wife and two kids to New York in April (the first time in years that I came back to New York, and the first time both kids came with me on a trans-Atlantic flight). The problem I had was that I couldn't check in via the internet right away,…

A cat? It must be working kitty well!

I didn't have paper or a tissue handy, but I did have some duck tape and a cat. Turned out pretty good!

They hired REALLY TINY PEOPLE to play in the pool.

That picture makes me think of the numerous misleading pool toy box images I've seen across the web:

My comment about coupons isn't about the time it takes, but rather that it leads to buying things you normally would not have bought simply because they are a good deal. That's why they make coupons—because you will actually spend more.

Sitting in 45 minutes of extra traffic because you don't want to pay the $8+ on the high-occupancy/toll lanes on the Beltway to get to the client's office—but you make $150 an hour as a consultant there.

Why is anyone surprised? She has a track record.

Yeah, no. The grind plays a big role, too. A coarse grind might only have a fraction of the surface area of a fine grind. And if you're trying for ongoing, predictable results, you don't use a small measuring device like a teaspoon... you use a larger one, like a level 1/4 cup or 1/2 cup metal measuring cup. There are…

This isn't about your opinion of the ACA-we'll leave that to the politicians to discuss. These tests are covered, so you might as well get some of these important health screenings each year. I'm on a high-deductible plan, so this is quite handy.

Google actually does read a fair amount of stuff back. And at the end of the day, I'd rather have something displayed on screen that answers my question than something read to me that isn't really related. But you're right—we're still very much in the early stages of these assistants, and they all still need a lot of…

This is all fine and dandy, but there's more to this for AIs. Cortana knows when I usually leave work to go home and pops up a traffic alert letting me know how long it will take for me to get home. No user input needed, she just knows based on my prior habits. She also asks me if I want to track flight statuses…

Great ground rules here— it took an embarrassingly long time for me to figure this out with my girlfriend (no fault of hers— I would work eighteen hour days if not for her tremendous patience and being there to save me from myself). Wish I had read this article a year and a half ago. Thanks for posting, of course, and…

I lost something.. HANDWRITING. I find while of course I can still write, I have far less muscle memory than before.. I can't seem to make it neat, it's not a fluid non-thinking motion, etc.

Wait I'm really confused if I missed something, how is it NSFW?

If they aren't in their own seat and they aren't "attached" to you, where do they go? Under the seat in front of you?
