I wish I had thought of this with my Physics textbook. I had to re-bind it once anyways when I left it on the top of my car. I could have just cut it up then.

There are different kinds of NA beer. Some are 100% alcohol free. Some are <0.5% which is sometimes called "Near Beer." Then you have small beers up to 2%. In the case of near beers you usually get more alcohol from eating brea

You may want to take into account that they may have already considered these things. Although you and I do not agree with them, there is a long history of this philosophy and that their arguments are sound even if they are not necessarily

This is just a localization change. If you set your country to Canada it turns right back. Every country has it's own names for hundreds of geographical features. Meanwhile, US leaders are planning to bomb oil infrastructure in Iran th

I think the idea is that tariffs cut both ways. They increase prices for foreign goods as well as reduce demand for imports causing job losses in the exporting country. The original tariffs increase prices and the retaliatory tariffs reduce

Windows is definitely guilty of slowly getting worse performance wise. Requiring faster and faster hardware and more RAM just to keep the OS running.

It took me about 2 years out of college to get a job in my field. This was back in 2014-2015. This is just kind of how it goes nowadays. The trick is to make sure you don't stop learning while you are job hunting. I pretended that I wo

I have never owned an Apple product that didn't slowly get worse over time. After a couple iPads and MacBooks, I'm almost certain they are intentionally updating their operating system to slow down older products. Even worse is th

So we're going back to the internment camps? When I was a kid visiting the museum of tolerance, my thought was "Thank god I live in America where this won't happen." Guess I was wrong. How can any decent person continue

Long distance RFID readers are currently used mostly for warehouse inventory tracking. Nowadays you can steer antennas using phased arrays like they use in 5G. https://www.zebra.com/us/en/products/rfid/rf

I would recommend getting an annotated version. It helps to understand what the heck is going on. Half the time you are reading idioms that were translated from Hebrew or Greek to Latin and then to English that make zero sense in English. T

Guess they won't be able to launch UAVs then. The steam catapults weren't compatible with lighter airframes.

I love making my own sub rolls for sandwiches. They last a week on the counter so I can make them on the weekend and store them in the fridge then toast them in the oven. Subway used to be cheap but they jacked those prices up to the moon l

I think a huge part of success comes from stopping and spending some time in self reflection occasionally. It's really easy to get stuck on autopilot and not re-evaluate things. Especially when you are young. Stopping for a bit and spe

I think most people don't know how to cook cheap stuff and don't even know where to start. It is a bit of a learned skill. You get a repertoire of cheap but delicious menu items over time. It used to be that our parents would hand

If you want to make your own frozen potato product like this you also need to parboil them. Otherwise the results are acceptable but underwhelming.

I can make about 2000 calories for about $2-5 using staples like rice, beans, flour, salt, yeast, pepper, etc... Generally, spices are pretty cheap. Especially if you go to the bulk section instead of buying the little jars. The thing I see
