Hi! There is a typo... the spelling of Niantic

AlphaGeek, well said. I will start using it more. Some day I’ll bring it back to that knife maker to show how well it has held up over the years.

I don’t cook often, but I own one carbon steel knife. We got it in Kyoto as a souvenir from a knife maker back in 2008. That knife doesn’t get used much, because it seems special... I often hesitate when reaching for that knife and think to myself, “I’m not worthy of using the carbon knife to cut this apple. I guess…

I vote against this. Kids need to learn the physics of tableware friction at the dinner table in a normal fashion. Completely changing the physics of it sends them mixed messages. My number one rule of kids is consistency. You can’t change their perception of tableware physics without having to pay a price later.

That’ll be just fine!

Oh great! Tuesdays were most productive because we didn’t have meetings scheduled. So much for that. Thanks a bunch. /s

The lights you have, could you leave them “on” all day, and would they still recharge and give a few hours of light after dusk? I’m wondering if I would be able to just leave the lights on and not have to turn them on and off every night and day.

You can see it from the Mickey and Friends parking garage too.

Just wanted to add my 2 cents with a similar experience with my 2005 Prius. I don’t fault the Prius, but myself for being in a hurry:

I thought I recognized that storefront.... There is a tailor in that shopping center that we’ve been going to for years.

Do any of you guys disable the auto-lock function of your smartphones? After getting the new iPhone SE, I disabled autolock and it has been life changing. I think you guys should give it a try! Some reasons: pulling up a groupon while you’re still 3rd or 4th in line, not worrying about your screen going dim. Leaving a…

....”Microsoft” ?? I can’t believe you’re still holding onto hope. There’s a saying that goes something like, “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 5 times... what man, you enjoy this??!”

This is the best cover image on LH I’ve seen over the length of my stay here!! Well done. I like the plant care tips, too.

hi Matt, I have a comparable story to tell regarding my switch from Windows 10 to Ubuntu on my secondary laptop. This is an older 1st gen i5 laptop I use in the bedroom for just surfing the web. After upgrading from Win7 to Win10, I started having problems with permissions and also standby mode. I was kicking myself…

Without Steve Jobs, I don’t have much confidence of a repeat of iPod or iPhone in the Smarthome arena.

We’ve had our cordless Dyson for a year (or more?). If it broke, I would replace it right away. It’s got enough suction to do the job and we don’t have pets. I dump out the dust bin after every run, because I don’t like to have crumbs and dirt sitting in there for days (weeks?) at a time. It’s fine. We got it on sale…

I once had a BofA ATM accept a check deposit, and then it did nothing. Just nothing. It just quietly quit. The screen went back to the insert-your-debit-card screen. This was early on when not every BofA ATM accepted check deposits. It was late, on a Friday afternoon after closing time. Making things worse, the timing…

I will say it was a big commitment to plop down the $90 for a carton of the stuff. I kept searching for “sampler” and came up empty. After a week of hesitation, I made the purchase. For science.

The first time I had the most amazing, mind blowing coffee was in 2007 B.C. (before children) at a mom-and-pop breakfast cafe. The kind that you put to your lips with eyes half open, take a sip and instantly snap wide awake and say, “MMMMM!”

I like that you questioned my assessment! I should clarify with a few reasons on why I considered his work “low-quality” here:
