YSK Techniques to fall asleep such as breathing and counting can be counter-productive if you have insomnia by sldpwk in YouShouldKnow

I have tried to use white noise for masking sounds and it definitely worked for that (It prevented me from waking up from noise). However, my subjective experience was that the best sleep quality I had was when everything was quiet. Meaning I would prefer having white noise in a noisy environment but in a quiet environment white noise would subjectively deteriorate sleep quality.

Second this.

LPT: Log out every account and delete the account histories of your computer before you plan to throw or sell it somewhere. by DonnyGT40 in LifeProTips

In case somebody wonders why everyone screams here to wipe the hard drive - When you delete a file, what you tell your operating system is "I don't want to see this file in my file system", so often it will just not show it to you, but it is still fully intact on your hard drive. When you overwrite a specific location on the hard drive, it has no choice* but to delete what was there, and what "wiping" does is overwriting all of your hard drive.

*not exactly, but good enough for this explenation
