‘Crane’ was word #1,730. Considering today is #531, and now that some words are getting moved up, that one day should be in April 2026.

I agree with everything you said, but I just want to emphasize “[toilets] are super simple to fix.” This is so true. I’m not a plumber by any measure but I’ve successfully repaired all of our toilet woes. I even replaced an entire toilet. You can do it people! (Just remember to shut off the water at the wall first.)

I think switches and outlets are easier than termostats. The wiring on outlets are simple - hot, neutral, ground - and you’re done. Smart switches introduce another hot wire and sometime you’ll run across a box that doesn’t have a neutral. Then you get to a thermostat and it’s almost kind’a standardized. Do you have a…

In the last quarter, Amazon pulled a profit of $137.4 billion, but evidently needs mOaR monies!

Nope.  Grab the shotgun.

Technically not fast food, but I miss the Red Robin A1 Peppercorn Burger. It disappeared at the beginning of the pandemic due to supply issues (or so I heard) and never returned.

Regardless of the origin, that type of headline means I won’t be sharing the post with my parents, kids, nor most of my co-workers. If the point of the headline was to minimize sharing, it worked.

One lesson I learned the hard way - before you go down into the crawl space, lock your pets in another room.

If you’re in the middle of a game, you’ll lose your progress; if you’re writing a note in an app that doesn’t auto-save, your work will be lost. All because you innocently decided to change your wallpaper.

I don’t know why Lifehacker continues to perpetuate the myth that Brussels Sprouts are edible.  Shame on you Claire!

I don’t get the Android tablet hate either. I’ve been using Android tablets since the Nexus 7 (was that 2012?) and none of these new, omg amazing features of 12L are anything that I was really missing.

I’m confused by this one:
9. Quickly Switch Wifi Networks

What phone are you on?  I’ve been able to browse the Internet while on a call for years.  I even remember doing it on my Nexus 4!

Not sure where you live. In the US, 57.5% of the populated is vaccinated. Not sure why you would use “eligible for vaccination” instead of the true vaccination rate.

For metered paywalls, they record your number of visits in a cookie. The easy answer (well, for me) is to delete the cookie.

Part of what makes Reddit so damn Reddit is the site’s commitment to allowing the expression of both sides of an issue. On the pro-vaccine side, there’s the world’s doctors and epidemiologists urging you to take a tested, safe, free, and effective vaccine to prevent the spread of a deadly disease. On the anti-vaccine…

the losses could grow up to $6 billion. That’s nearly the equivalent of 22 anti-trust fines paid to the European Union.

^^^ This! ^^^

Or... hear me out... you could stop being a selfish bastard and get the damn vaccination. If your doctor said you can’t get it, I feel for you. If your Facebook support group said you shouldn’t get it, screw you - stop being a selfish bastard and get the damn shot. If you favorite politician advised you to ignore…
