Shower gel: plastic bottle

Ah, a hack from back when Lifehacker hacks were pretty good. I miss those days.

My solution to passwords AND security answers is simple but highly effective: I use a pattern to derive a password or answer from the name of the service or the security question itself.

A simple example for security questions might be “use the second letter of every word in the question”: So “where were you when you…

Sigh... My employer, in it’s infinitely questionable wisdom, has decreed that no password managers shall be in use on company-owned hardware. Until recently, that was the policy, but there was no enforcement. One of those things that, if you gave them the desire to dismiss you, they could use against you, but in…

“Toyota Corolla: tough enough to hold a Toyota Tacoma off your skull.”

This kinda sounds amazing

I’m pretty sure you covered EVERYING.

Had no clue this was the case. Thanks. I have cornmeal, so I might give this a try then.

Grits are good. If you like polenta, you will like grits. It is basically just porridge made from ground corn, and tastes exactly like you’d expect. If theirs were a greasy mess, it’s because they didn’t make them right.

I served an LDS mission in Buenos Aires from 2002-2004, so a lot of my knowledge is outdated. Thanks for taking the time to write so much detail. I need to visit again. Las Medialunas del Abuelo was always my favorite pastry stop.

Any “new” music I’ve found lately is actually “old” music that I hadn’t really absorbed.

I work for a company that does business with others that are often PE owned. We HATE giving these companies money that doesn’t have explicit strings on it because we know that the PE firm is going to suck that money out instead of putting it toward actual business uses.

“We love exploring all the various cultures” - Hipsters in America

Yup. Just read it in full, lots of nothing. Just the same weak talking points they have been using all along.

Oh man, after finally reading it it’s even dumber than we’d imagined. What a wet fart Nunes has produced here.

Agreed. In my context, we petition to withdraw if the client doesn’t pay and we satisfy a few conditions (gave the client notice, our withdrawal doesn’t prejudice them, etc.). But yeah, non-payment, intent to commit perjury, but also, client is just a giant dick, an imbecile, or unhinged nutter who doesn’t understand…

“I am not a lawyer, but I would think if three defense attorneys suddenly don’t want to defend a client any longer — especially in a high stakes case such as this — that could be an indication that an anvil is about to drop on someone’s head.”

David Clarke is ridiculous, but blah blah blah boring boring boring blah blah blah boring boring.

Here’s the version from Harper’s... sans the bake-off competition. The longer, unedited-for-length version is in the essay collection A Supposedly Fun Thing I’ll Never Do Again.
