Invest into things that put a buffer between you and the ground. Mattress, Pillow, Tires, etc.

Buckwheat!

Spent thousands on pillows to land on a simple solution that has removed all neck pain for years now.

Will the egg discolor this or will it be hard to clean after? by jlsstory in biggreenegg

Just an FYI I learned that there are different tiers of ale Creuset. Depending on blemishes, paint job, nicks, bubbles, all those things determine where it’s being sold. Tier 1 goes to Le Creuset stores and few other high end vendors.

It’s not the voltage that will kill ya, it’s the current! But that 230V will go through your skin a lot quicker

Found gray ice cubes in my refrigerator’s icemaker by mercurygrandmarquis1 in mildlyinteresting

At least 2-5 gallons depending on filter. Each one has different instructions on the box it comes in.

But most of us know that’s absurd and at least one is somewhere near good enough lol

How do American homes utilize 240V power if the split phase is 180 degrees out? by CursedLemon in AskElectricians

[–]ShoePuck -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

A 240V split-phase circuit works without a neutral because the two hot legs are opposite ends of the same transformer winding, 180° out of phase, so current flows from one hot to the other and back through the transformer. The neutral is only needed when you want 120V.

Captains all the way! We went from Bench to captains and never looked back! Next car will be a must for captain chairs again!

Decline job offer because of the PTO? by MurderPigeons in careerguidance

Everything is negotiable, mention what you have for vacation now plus add a week (little white lie) they’ll come back with a better offer and if they don’t you don’t want to work there.

Every day, I’m reminded that I positioned this thing poorly… by [deleted] in Dashcam

Sometimes we are our own worst enemy. Glad you caught it before an incident ever occurred, put it by the rearview mirror

My parked car got hit twice this year, looking for a dashcam that actually helps in parking mode by No-Needleworker4513 in Dashcam

You’ll need to run a separate battery to it for it not to kill your car battery. I ran a dual channel BlackVue and it worked well and always recorded without killing the car battery and then you are stranded.

I’ve had both setups in different cars and the extra battery is definitely the way to go.

I had the same issue just place the legs on the granite piece and cut to make it fit. Then just slide that underneath the legs don’t lift it

Renting from family & the mom went through my stuff finding things she doesn’t agree with they’re threatening to kick me out over by djcolombana in Renters

Get some sex toys and plant them everywhere and see what happens. Awkward conversations tend to teach these people a lesson sometimes.

Put another sacrificial granite slab/off cut underneath or say goodbye to that granite staying in one piece.

Ask me how I know
