inMy laser level was off by 1/4 inch and I found out why in my garage last night
Does anyone else wonder if @the_cora had bad luck with that particular Bosch model, or if it's the whole concept of pendulum stud finders that's the problem? I've been using a basic Zircon for years and it's never given me false readings, but I've heard enough people complain about those self-leveling ones to think maybe they just don't work well on anything but perfect drywall. The extra moving parts seem like they'd introduce more chances for error, not less.

inMy cousin laughed at my packing cubes and now I get why
Yeah but a garlic press is actually useful if you hate chopping garlic by hand every single day. Most people just buy those weird avocado slicers and spiralizers that they use exactly once. The trick is figuring out what you'll actually reach for on a Tuesday night, not what looks cool in the drawer.

inGot a random tip from a guy at a comp in Kansas City that fixed my brisket stall instantly
Mike from down the street tried something similar on his traeger and his wife was so mad that dinner was ready at 2pm. @lunawilson I feel you on the butcher paper though, I kept a roll in my pantry for six months before I actually remembered to use it once. Foil works in a pinch but that paper really does make a difference with the bark staying crunchy.

inMy cousin the IT guy told me to ditch password managers. Here's why he was wrong.
Hang on, @rowangonzalez, your cousin actually said that about locks being a single point of failure? That's wild to me. I'm genuinely shocked someone would think that way, especially since doors are like the most obvious barrier you have. If that's their logic, shouldn't they also leave their car windows down because glass is a single point of failure too? It just seems like a dangerous way to think, and I'd be scared to leave my stuff out like that.

inChose the warehouse with older HVAC over the flashy new build near the highway
Right? New doesn't always mean better. Roof leaks are brutal.
