I went through four years of not-that-sexy teen drama at Oak Ridge High. I'll pass.

I read somewhere (perhaps lifehacker?) that it helps to put your smelly shoes in a sealed plastic bag in the freezer overnight. This kills the odor causing bacteria. It seems to work and might be easier on your shoes than washing.

On a lot of phones—particularly those that have vanilla Android, which are developer devices—rooting is extremely easy.

There are lots of reasons you'd want to do that that have nothing to do with personalization or customization like this. Installing a new ROM is like

This seems like an early step towards "smart dust" sensors as in Vernon Vinge and Neal Stevenson novels.

I tried this and it totally worked. They did leave out the part where the tennis ball is actually a brick and instead of pressing it to the lock you throw it through the window though.

When flies invade my apartment, my cat deploys into action and usually ends up eating a few after trapping them against a glass pane. The rest of the time he stows himself away in a box, like so:

I just use chopsticks.
