I totally get you. I’m very complacent when it comes to sharing my information, but being a technical millennial (born in ‘84) I’ve grown into my data being shared as a commodity when there’s absolutely nothing I can do about it. After all, we’re trading things being “free” for our information. Facebook is an…

It’s the individual’s responsibility to take privacy into their own hands. The only thing you can control in life is you and your own actions. What do you do if a neighbor is constantly peaking into your window because you have 5 feet of space between houses? You can buy some blinds, or move out to the woods. So in…

Get a VPN. And why should I care if google knows if I have this rare disease? If it means that the data is coagulated into a system where it can be easily tracked, then this rare disease might not end up being so rare if 10k other people happen to have it, and the data for them is all in one place that can be easily…

And definitely not kosher to ask your parents for help any longer lol

A good kitchen knife. You need one quality 6-8" chef’s knife, even if you do nothing with it that slice grapefruits in half occasionally. Having a sharp knife handy will help you massively more than a cheap one that dulls quickly or rusts.

also include some kahula in that, its the best damn whipped cream you’ll ever have. lol

omg you are amazing thank you so much. Sometimes I think my parents think I’m weird/crazy because they buy everything from a can and I tell them I can make whipped cream so easy and then 20 minutes later it goes flat and they look at me like “yeah, we should have stuck with the can”. Blarg, I say!! No more!

I’ll offer up my own tip here, even though I drink my coffee with splenda and creamer. Coffee is naturally acidic, so add an alkaline to the grounds to help with that bitter flavor. Options include

I’ve had pot in food and there’s no way you would still be drinking tea with weed in it. It tastes like eating grass. Like, and this is UNCOOKED weed. Hello.

I think this expansion is what will get me back into WoW. I played up until Legion, when they introduced level scaling. I didn’t like the idea of it, because I play through a story and overlevel in areas to make it easier, and you can’t do that with scaling. When they introduced it to all the areas and not just Legion…

I love this article. My dad, who was born in 1951 but grew up here in WA, had canned bread in the pantry at home. It wasn’t any kind of tradition as far as I’m aware, but he’s the only reason I even knew it was a thing. And honestly, it’s pretty damn delicious because canning bread keeps it super moist. When my bf and…

Oh yeah, now that I see the list (mine starts with 1G) it is a Roku 3 model, but before the remote came out with dedicated netflix buttons. Thanks!

I found serial numbers but not model numbers. Mine is currently set up in our waiting room and impossible to get to. But if it’s the “auto preview” feature and not the “autoplay” feature then I will just see if it auto previews or not. Sigh. I definitely don’t want to have to replace the Roku with my own money at this…

Oh California. You can grow anything can’t you?

I actually have mine set up in Raid 0 (long story about trying to find the cause of my issues, bought another NvME but ended up replacing the board and cpu) so I technically DO use both at the same time, especially for sequential RAW conversions and video rendering.

that’s total bullshit. I wish it didn’t work that way

I have a feeling that’s what my Gigabyte Aorus z370 Gaming 5 board did. When I bought it I didn’t even realize it had THREE m.2 slots, and they were all NvME compatible (I was having an issue with my board and/or drive and ended up testing all 3), but there’s no way they all have their own lanes, especially…

I had an interesting thing happen to my old PC - Windows was being a complete butthead and I thought maybe it was my samsung nvme drive that I’d only bought a year ago; so I bought another one (have two 250gb ones now) and installed windows and it was STILL being a butthead. So after replacing my cpu and mobo, I was…

Ironically enough, this would never work at a hospital.
