Just use a very hot cycle with a strong detergent. And some bleach. Every time I see someone talk about mixing vinegar and baking soda, I wonder why they want a bunch of CO2, and nothing else, because that is literally all that happens. Neutralizing an acid with a base may be fun to watch, but useless for cleaning.

Why anyone ever decided that taking medical advice from TikTok was anything other than the worst idea in human history is beyond me.

Went with quartz for our kitchen reno, and I’m never using anything else. Almost all the benefits of natural stone, with none of the downsides. The only possible problem is its obvious manufactured, not natural, appearance, but whatever. I like materials science.

Yes, because hand-washing in the sink subjects the pan to detergents at high temperatures for up to several hours, and hand-drying takes another hour in a humid environment. Totally the same thing.

FTFY. As a Google user who would never, ever consider moving to Apple’s walled garden, this article is not for me.

Anyone who’d like to disparage this product as “plastic cheese” or “fake cheese,” go ahead. You’re very clever. Meanwhile, I’ll be making the meltiest grilled cheese ever.

So, the only people on TikTok who are full of feces are the “health” TikTokkers themselves. Yeah, not really news to anyone paying attention.

Hey Lifehacker, if you want to publish an article about board games, could you get someone who actually plays them? Turing Machine is not a kids’ game; it’s labeled 14+, which doesn’t fit a list with fluff like Yeti in My Spaghetti and Race to the Treasure. Trails doesn’t have any expansions; that’s PARKS, the game…

It’s perfectly possible to create all manner of fermented/cultured foods without the strictest sanitation/sterilization standards. I’m a homebrewer, and absolutely fastidious about sanitation, but you don’t necessarily need to be to make drinkable beer. A strong culture of the desirable yeast and/or bacteria almost…

Apple “dominates the market”? From where, second place after Samsung? That’s a good one. And anyone who wants to do what they want with their phone should avoid Apple at all costs. If I could afford a Pixel, I’d get one, since Android is the best mobile OS, hands down. But the subsidized Samsung phones offered by your…

Amazing that people still want access to TV channels. I haven’t had cable for 15 years, and every time I’m at someone’s house watching theirs, I’m reminded why. No commercials on streaming services. 

Your grandfather is lucky he was never killed operating a deactivated motor vehicle at speed. That’s just dumb.

The RPM doesn’t tell the whole story. My 2007 Honda Fit could coast down the CO mountains at 4k RPM, but would be consuming zero fuel. Uphill, that same 4k RPM would be consuming quite a bit of fuel. Gas pedal input is everything in modern cars.

If your car slows down in high gear on a shallow hill, it’s not designed correctly. In fifth gear, my Kia Soul coasts just fine, and even accelerates, on moderate to shallow downhills, necessitating a downshift. I don’t think this article is talking about coasting for short distances on the flat. Out here in Colorado,…

I’m dubious of the pasta spoon thing. Not only do not all of these spoons have a hole, or have many smaller holes (like mine), but your source is the Food Network, who cites Cosmopolitan magazine, who cites someone on Imgur that jammed a bunch of spaghetti into the hole in their pasta spoon. Uh...yeah, sorry, but I’m…

Please, please, please, stop referring to macro lagers as shitty beer. These beers, while boring, less flavorful, mass-produced, etc., are actually as good as this style of beer can be made. If you don’t like macro lagers, you should definitely fill them with whatever other flavors you do like (I personally am not a…

“proper coffee snob”

TikTok is...misinformation

Hmm, should I choose the product named after a famous sci-fi story where the mystery edible product turned out to be made of people, or the one named by the retching sound I imagine myself making upon trying to choke it down? “HUUUUUEL.” Oh, I know. Neither.

The problem is that humans are not rational, and the “all else being equal” part is almost never the case. People will, consciously or not, use their consumption of diet soda to justify more calorie consumption elsewhere in their diets. It’s almost never just making the switch to diet soda.
