What about increasing your credit limit instead of lowering utilization? If I spend $1,000/month on a credit card with a limit of $5,000 I’m at 20% utilization. If I open a new card or get my credit limit increased on my current card so that my limit is now $14,000, now my $1,000/month is only about 7% utilization. Is…

Total transparency: I cheat. There is an addon called “The Great Suspender” which automatically ‘suspends’ tabs after a certain period of inactivity. Basically, it saves the exact state of the site (including where you are on the page/video/etc.) and minimizes the computer processes. It’s essentially automatic…

^^^ Exactly this. I currently have 79 tabs open in Chrome. (Yes, I’m that person.) Chrome is still only using 2.3% (1.5 GB) of my 64 GB RAM, so I can play video games on max settings without closing any of my tabs.

To be pedantic, croissants are actually Austrian.

When my children were about 2 & 3, they saw their first live pig and were introduced: “This is a pig. This is where bacon and ham come from. Pigs are delicious.” We talk a lot about how delicious various plants and animals are when we encounter them.

A horse walks into a bar. The bartender says “You want a drink?” The horse says, “I think not,” and promptly vanishes.

Why was 6 afraid of 7? Because 7, 8, 9.

Kinda mad no one posted a link to @layfhaker...

I just use Amazon. I have a wish list called “Movies” which is all the movies I own. Same for video games, board games, etc. These are free, accessible from the Amazon app or website, and shareable.

Let me start by saying that I tip at restaurants where I get table service.

The subject line is a separate, but still important part of the email. A good email format would be:

I’ve heard of generals saying: “Write the email, then write the BLUF, then delete the rest of the email.”

I didn’t see anyone mention silicone gloves. They let you reach right in to the hot water to add/remove/rearrange bags. They are helpful when reaching into an ice bath as well.

Fun fact: The Chase Amazon Rewards cards do not have price protection.

You missed the Philips Hue Color Starter Kit. $114 is an all time low, I believe, and is $36 less than buying the three bulbs individually.

When I used to play “Spotlight”, it was like a combination of your flashlight tag and kick the can.

I used to live in an area with spotty power. Specifically, the power always seemed to go out within 13 seconds of pressing start on a microwave containing a Hot Pocket. Turns out Hot Pockets are actually better wrapped in foil and grilled than cooked in a microwave!

Because I’m the enabler-type... Instead of solving your problems, just double down on them with an addon like The Great Suspender!

I’m surprised no one mentioned the best feature of Our Groceries—it has an Alexa skill. “Alexa, ask Our Groceries to add milk.” I like looking through cookbooks and cabinets and dictating my shopping list to my personal robot. Or immediately adding it to the list as I use the last of it.
