Michigan solved their shitty road problem: they created a state insurance fund that you could file claims against if a pot hole tore up your car. Some of their pot holes were (and I assume still are) more like craters. I moved back home to

I went to Mayo last year (immune system issues) and told the internist I had chronic gurgling in my ear. He said it was probably related to the immune deficiency and the best thing to keep the ears cleaned out are regular nasal rinses. He

After all the crap the Catholic church has pulled, I really don't understand why members continue to fund such a corrupt organization. As a US citizen, I have to pay taxes and fund the government, unless I want to move to another count

This is nice for backup programs like HashBackup (I'm the author). For block-based incremental backups, this new free egress allowance lets backup tools do maintenance on the backup (packing vacant space out of older backup files) wit

I had diarrhea problems for a few years that no doctor diagnosed. I found on my own that taking a probiotic twice a day completely fixed it, within a few days. The probiotic (Amazon's most popular) was around $13 for 30 pills, so it

I bought a 2018 Acura RDX instead of a new one. Way fewer electronic gadgets and touch screens, and it cost $26K w/33K miles vs $46K new. Even with a 2018, I only made it halfway through the HUGE manual and still don't understan
