Powdered drink tip works equally well for the powdered cheese in mac & cheese.

It should be pointed out that the recommendation about whether a strong password matters is context specific. The answers here only apply to whether a strong password matters IF THE SITE IS HACKED. If the site is not hacked, there are still ways for people to hack your account. And in that event, even if the site…

Well, if I pass out because the cabin isn't pressurized, at least I won't notice the pain...

Awesome thanks. (and approved.)

I'm generally very good with the yawning trick, but there have been a couple times I've flown with a cold recently and yawning doesn't work and it's painful. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to blow my eardrum or something.

I've used these guys with some success. The current ink I'm using is acting up, but that could be user error on the installation.

The one you're on now isn't bad...

Congrats. Be sure to back up off site too. If you have friends, family, or a work computer, you can use Crashplan for free and back up to their computer(s). Or their plans are relatively cheap to back up to the cloud. I recently bought in (for exactly the same reason as you), and the service seems to work pretty…

In Android, if you select a default application (say, a browser) and you tell it to remember your selection, how do you change that selection later on?

Not exactly a Lifehacker's wheelhouse, but I thought I'd try:

I've had this happen too.

Interesting question. When you delete something from the main "Music" folder, does it delete from the hard drive? I seem to recall that there's a two step process when I delete things from "Music": 1) Do you really want to delete it?; 2) Do you want to delete it from your hard drive too? I think there's a check box…

It gives you a warning before it deletes anything. I actually found it on accident myself, and no harm done.

It works for me. I like the power of the smart playlists, and I don't care that it's slow and bloated because I only use it a few times a year to load songs on my portable devices. I tried Foobar and Winamp, and couldn't stand them — too much setup required out of the box. I'm not suggesting you should switch to…

A related shortcut to opening links in a new tab is to click the scroll wheel button over the link. I think that's a default, but it's possible I dug into my mouse settings to make it that way. It gives me great options with one hand though: left-click to open in the same tab; middle-click (scroll-click) to open in…

If you have photoshop, you can add your contact info to a photo that you use as your lock screen wallpaper.

Hot climates are the easiest to do with just a carry-on. What do you really need? A few short sleeve shirts, some shorts, and a swimsuit.

Meat at Costco is usually inexpensive and high quality.
