You can also dehydrate them and vacuum pack them for future use. They’ll reconstitute with some oil for whenever you need sun-dried tomatoes.

Immediately after a mosquito bite, rub a wet fingertip on the soap to pick up wet soap residue and spread that soap on/around the bite to prevent itching/swelling.

Unfortunately, Hangouts is being phased out this year in favor of the Slack/Teams clone Chat app that they had originally created for Google Suite/Workspace enterprise use. Instead of a unified Hangouts for enterprise, they chose to split it up as Hangouts Chat for IMs and Hangouts Meet for video calls. And to further…

Careful now, they're gonna be replaced with whoever runs Google's messaging apps strategy. 

Full fat yogurt goes upwards to 4-5% fat content by weight. So for every 100g of full fat yogurt you need, gently whisk together 6g softened butter with 94g of nonfat yogurt that’s been brought close to room temperature. I’m not using 5g to 95g b/c I’m assuming upwards of 20% of butter is water and protein solids.

This does seem very pricey compared to any reasonable prepaid MVNO currently on the market. My family currently 2 lines w/ 5GB EACH for $70/mo on Cricket right now. We’re about to switch to a 4 line plan with their Unlimited 2 Plan and that’s still $100, all fees and taxes included. Prepaid providers these days…

I still remember the bright orange Stack Overflow error whenever I tried to launch TIE Fighter without rebooting Win95 into MS-DOS Mode.

If you want to get it closer to a restaurant flavor, also add apple sauce.

In my experience, I have found ammonia is far more noxious than NaOH. At room temperature, scrubbing something with ammonia fills the room with a strong stinky odor whereas NaOH is 100% odorless. If I’m using a damp NaOH degreaser cloth to wipe something down, there is no smell at all.

I once also had a roommate spray a dirty pot lid with oven cleaner foam then wrap it tightly in a plastic garbage bag so it doesn’t evaporate. The next day it washed clean and looked brand new.

Oh, then you absolutely must see Sarah Haskins’ old webseries “Target Women.” Full playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=…

Behind Closed Ovens isn’t discontinued, I think it’s moved to a different site: http://wonkette.com/.

Mac OS X has just as much breakable underlying complexity as Windows. Hell, they sell a Server Mac Mini. Nah, if your grandparents or Parliament-chainsmoking aunt ask you for an “appliance” computer, tell them to get a Chromebook / Box / Base AIO. 7 second boot-up, automatic background updates, and Linux kernel…

I was not aware that they came with two different battery types. I always assumed the rechargeable pack simply fit inside the AA battery slot. And if you want rechargeables, can’t you just use a pack of AA Eneloops/AmazonBasics in the AA slot?

I remember the $349 Dana! I really really wanted one back in 2002 as a poor college student who couldn’t afford a $1400 laptop and had just dipped my toes into Palm OS with the gorgeous aluminum Handspring Visor Edge.

And in season 7, Lorelai’s old Jeep Wrangler finally dies and we briefly see her pull up to the house in a blue Dodge Aspen. I always assumed it was just a rental but apparently it was meant to be registered to the Dragonfly Inn. I guess I missed the Dragonfly decals that were supposedly on it.

Even better than reading it— listen to the audiobook as read by Tina Fey herself. You realize the writing is absolutely her voice and it is glorious.

You mean his Gardasil. And his Valtrex. And his AZT.

She's finally going to lose her heart to a starship trooper. <3

The current xB is actually further from its original than the xD to the xA. Because they switched from the Toyota Echo platform and 1.5L engine to the tC's European Avensis platform and the 2.4L Camry engine, the 2nd gen xB has nothing in common with the original xB/bB other than the square-ish tall wagon profile.
