This is the happiest looking car I’ve ever seen. It’s even smizing.

The new version of Facebook breaks Social Fixer on my computer and this plugin makes it work again. So yay, I can keep blocking politics and clickbait.

Amen. Every phone I had prior to wireless charging failed at the charging port...except for the one that restarted every time I closed the sliding keyboard. Now that I pretty much exclusively charge wirelessly my phones are lasting roughly twice as long. It’s not the convenience- it’s the durability and lack of…

You find out at the end. Sometimes they ask which group you thought you were in to see how effective the blinding was. Clinical trials generally give you too much rather than too little information, so you will most likely be told about any possible problem they can think of, no matter how unlikely, during the…

Don’t call it “quilted”, you’re just confusing us woodworkers. Quilted is a grain pattern like curly or burled. This is just wood with a normal grain pattern CNC milled into interesting repeating shapes. But then again it is Bentley, so I’m a bit surprised that they didn’t mill this “quilt” pattern into actual quilted…

The same idea works great for hanging drills/drivers under cabinets. You need a PVC pipe that is just large enough and then cut relief slots for the handle/trigger. Makes a nice solid horizontal holster.

I’m a former Florida resident who had been forced to live in developments with HOAs because there really were not any available non-HOA option. I’ve lived with decent, reasonable HOAs and horrible, abusive, and obnoxious HOAs. I now live in Virginia in a neighborhood that is much nicer than the ones in Florida…

I have a terrier. To them, fetch is only a pretense to try and get you to play tug.

Yeah, except sometimes the mutt inherits the crap genetics. We have a 1/2 purebred German Shepherd 1/2 purebred Lab (escape/accident at the breeders). Bad hips like a shepherd, lipomas all over her body, cataracts in both eyes, and dumb as a box of rocks but lovable & friendly. But our other mutt (Pitt/greyhound?) is…

Counterpoint- I’ve been upgraded to first class for free (before boarding) on a small airplane (3 seats across). They did it for several people, and I think it was to balance out the plane. If they had not moved these people around they would have had a full back half and empty front half of the plane, which probably…

I’ve seen worse and I wish I had taken a picture of it- a friend of my father had this paint job on his corvette.

“Vans are good at somethings, trucks are good at others.”

Seconded. The people at Home Depot never think that four full sheets of drywall will fit in there, but they do. And they stay dry even when it’s raining. Also lower & easier loading height.

I guess I was lucky I got the grinder from HF and not the wheel. The brushes just burned up, broke apart, and melted onto the insides of the motor on the first use and filled my basement with nasty smoke.

I had a very similar idea a long time ago (harder braking = more lights). One of the summers I interned at Ford (probably ’96) I officially submitted it as a patent disclosure because, like you, I thought it was a great idea that I’d like to see on a car. I never heard anything about it and I still haven’t seen a…

I travel quite a bit and have never been 4Sed, but I have gotten my bag searched for things that looked suspicious on X-rays. Occasionally they’ll think that my metal shoehorn looks like a crowbar, but my biggest problem lately was candy. I’m diabetic (Type-I) and need to take candy or some other kind of sugar with me…

My ‘73 Chrysler HVAC system. Chrysler-branded natural gas furnace & blower with non-Chyrsler A/C compressor outside the house. It came with the house we bought in 2013 & worked fine (although horribly inefficiently) until we replaced it in 2016.

The therapeutic dose for acetaminophen is very close to the toxic dose. Therapeutic is not to exceed 4g/day, while toxicity starts at 7.5g/day (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK441917/). It is very easy to destroy your liver with Tylenol- “Acetaminophen toxicity is the second most common cause of liver…

Just use this little utility and Windows-v becomes a paste as unformatted text shortcut:

It almost certainly won’t. I replaced my water heater recently. We could’ve gone with gas or electric and I got the quotes and ran the cost/year calculations. Based on my gas use (3 kids, 2 adults, private home) the yearly amortized cost over a 20-year span, the gas heater cost $330/month and the continuous heater $384…
