I love the Golden Delicious/Granny Smith mix for pies. Honestly I’d probably go with nothing but Granny Smith, but not everyone has the same obsession with insanely tart apples that I do, so I throw in some goldens to balance things out a bit.

Nope, you’re good. Having a budget means more freedom to do things. At first it might be a bit restricting as you unlearn some bad spending habits. However, the first time you take that family vacation without having to worry about how much you’re spending makes it all worth it.

It’s far more important to stop air leaks in your house. A/C and heating account for most of the energy used in your house. If you can stop the air leaks ( penetrations in the attic floor for example) you will quickly recover the costs associated with finding and sealing the leaks.

Red Deliscous apples are by far the worst apple out there. I would rather eat a crabapple. My wife buys them despite my objection, I don’t understand how anyone could find them appealing.

That list is not complete. That’s a partial curated list from Palo Alto Networks, compiled from apps that were either checked manually, or from companies that put out statements. However, another security firm (Qihoo360 Technology Co) said it’s found at least 344 apps that were infected with XCodeGhost. Since we don’t…

I’m not sure if anyone else has noticed this or not... but with the advancement of printing technology... it seems like the font sizes on packages becomes smaller and smaller. Even with perfect vision someone would be “hard-pressed” to be able to read the tiny print nowadays.

These ‘debates’ are a waste of airtime. Wolf Blitzer combing his beard for three hours (which I am sure he does daily) would be more informative.

I was in your shoes and lasted five minutes. I realized listening to them would cause an aneurism so I stopped, ate a cookie and watched futurama.

has to do with whether you have files saved on the root level of your iCloud drive. if not, no offer.

I feel like most apps have that as their default?

i wish they gave us an option like this for all the built in apps.

No. Just, no. And, did I mention? NO, NO, NO.

“Hey man, can I borrow five bucks?”

Collect Interest? On a loan to a friend? Seriously?

Something I’ve always had to do at social functions, too. Even at family things where I know I’m safe, I still have to take short breaks away from the group to re-center myself. I used to get down on myself for it but I finally came to accept that it’s what I need to do.

I know the feeling. If it’s more than 5 people, I start to feel extremely uncomfortable, and if it’s 5 people for hours and hours, I’m also uncomfortable. I’ve learned to handle huge crowds (dragon con after all) but I still have to take breaks into quiet rooms every once in a while to ward of an attack. That’s why…

Lavender? I wonder if that’s my problem, or part of it. Just for a change, I’ve been using a lavender-scented lysol spray.

I’ve only just started to accept my own needs to isolate a lot during gatherings. In the past, I didn’t really understand why I needed the space when others didn’t, and I felt rejected, abnormal, and confused.
