There’s something darkly funny about Lifehacker telling us we should be saying “hell no” to third-party tracking, while simultaneously serving up cookies not just from lifehacker.com, but in my case 52 other third-party domains, mostly ad networks. This feels like pandering as long as you’re propping up the same game…

Question: as someone who occasionally doesn’t finish a bottle of wine in one sitting, I’ve got a “Vacu Vin” wine sealer which does a great job of prolonging the shelf life of an opened bottle. I assume the same product would work for vermouth, given a bottle with the same sized neck? I assume vermouth goes “bad” for…

From what I’ve been told, there’s a distinction: at a place like, say, Wal-Mart or Fry’s (I assume - they aren’t membership based, right? Don’t have ‘em here), you’re under no obligation to stop at the door to have your receipt checked, for the reasons you’ve asserted. But at someplace like Costco, where you’ve signed…

This may be good advice if you live in proximity to a store, but if you aren’t able to go there in person, then extreme YMMV. I placed an online order from Ikea recently for three items (a large cabinet and two small accessories) and it was delivered missing the entire cabinet. I had to call them, no joke, over a…

Ah, the good ol’ “summarize a Reddit thread that itself is a summary of other Reddit threads” school of journalism.

Calling this a multitool seems like a bit of a reach, no? It’s literally just a tiny keyring bottle opener. Photographing it being used for things besides opening bottles doesn’t make it a multitool.

Is there a way yet to block the stupid thing Gizmodo does where every other time I try to load the site it just navigates me to a full-screen ad with a ticker counting down the time until I’m actually allowed to go to the site?

The review from AndroidCentral (https://www.androidcentral.com/eufy-bodysense-smart-scale-simply-best) claims that this scale CAN sync to Google Fit, HealthKit, and Fitbit. Any idea who’s wrong?

Have you verified that this is true? Because I’ve been blocked on Twitter by an account which had DM’d me in the past, and I can still see the DMs from before the block.

That’s a great read. Thematically, it made me think of the Against Me! song “Unprotected Sex With Multiple Partners”, a track on an album released in 2005 during their whirlwind phase of being courted by major labels.

Not a critical detail, but you’ve got the wrong name for the summit in question — it’s the Values Voter Summit, not the Voter Values Summit.

My life was changed forever when, during my stint as a ramen cook during college, I was introduced to cooking chopsticks - they’re useful for literally everything, and beyond their direct versatility, they’re also what finally taught me to become reasonably proficient with regular sized chopsticks. I’ve got two pairs…

Any firsthand thoughts on how this compares with the usual robo vacuum offerings in this price range, such as the Eufy model you guys are always talking up?

Another question more related to this punch - what’s your thoughts on actual St. Germain versus other, cheaper elderflower liqueurs? I mean, St. Germain is a classic in an attractive bottle and all, but around here, I can get a bottle of “St Elder”, a US-produced generic, for about half the price — I’ve used it in a…

Ooh yay! Don’t know how that one snuck past me.

I’m all about a simple large-batch cocktail! I always overcomplicate things when I’m trying to make drinks for a crowd - I’ll have to remember apply the three-ingredient happy hour philosophy next time!

Yeah, canned wine is definitely a thing, for example:

Ugh, I’ve got this killer recipe for pickled cocktail cherries but it calls specifically for tart cherries, and I can’t find ANYWHERE around me (Ohio) that carries those. I keep trying to figure out a way to get ‘em but it seems like they’re a Michigan thing with a super short season.
