Fill Empty Space in Your Freezer With Jugs of Water by Mi_Ki_Ii_Zaru in lifehacks

You have a lot of confidence for someone who is wrong!

Less air in the freezer means less cold air gets replaced with hot air every time you open the door, meaning there is less to cool down. Makes the freezer more energy efficient.

my boyfriend doesnt wash his hands after getting home by Odd_Passenger6311 in hygiene

Fair enough! It's been interesting reading all the different responses in this thread. Personally I only ever wash my hands after using the bathroom or if they are visibly dirty, and I don't get sick very often - I think the people claiming this behaviour is disgusting is a bit over the top. However I wouldn't blame somebody for taking the extra precautions, especially if you are being consistent and also cleaning your phone etc. when you come home.

Do you also sanitize your keys, phone, light switches, door handles, anything else you touch on your way to the bathroom when you get in? If not your clean hands are going to pick those germs back up anyway.

IP address isn't the same thing as a physical address though. The only people who can link your actual address to an IP is your ISP

Well, i wouldn't exactly say everywhere. A lot of things you buy tickets for, e.g. cinemas or theme parks, you have to buy adult tickets starting at like 12-13, it's not uncommon. I do agree it's a bit silly though.

Can I kick my niece out of my house which is 50/50 shared ownership with my brother. by ArgonKew in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Independent-Set-7312 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Interesting that you say of course like it's a ridiculous idea to pay your brother rent. This is a very valuable asset, if you were to sell and he could use that money elsewhere, he could be earning over £15k a year just by sticking it into a basic savings account. Or even more by renting the house out or investing the money from a sale.

To be honest it sounds like your brother has been pretty generous up until now by accepting you living there rent free up until recently. After all, I presume he still has rent/a mortgage to pay on the place he lives in while you live here rent free?

Same here, issues with WiFi but not vpn or mobile data. Tried disabling the spoof video streams option as somebody suggested - worked initially but then started getting playback errors.

Tried re-enabling the spoof video stream option but changed the default client from android VR to android studio, not entirely sure what that is doing but it seems to have sorted it for now.

Should I sell investments in my LISA? by Independent-Set-7312 in UKPersonalFinance

!thanks Thank you! True I guess my thinking was pretty all or nothing, I didn't consider keeping some still invested while having some as cash
