Plastic tea bags

    • Where do you want to go on vacation/holiday?

    Jump

  • I did this in Chicago: find a deal on a hotel as close as possible to to lake then walk to the stuff on the lake like the aquarium, art museum, etc. Bonus is great restaurants nearby too. Also walk the river to/from the lake. There's also the beach and navy pier if those interest you. Awesome vacation.

  • Isn't it cheaper to buy loose tea and use a tea ball? Does that avoid this entire problem?

    • What would you do if you had six months left to live?

    Jump

  • I would quit my job, sell my house, cash out everything I could and move to southeast Asia to live like a hedonist. Hookers and blow, perhaps literally.

    • Rudy Giuliani's creditors are asking for details on his cable TV earnings, the origin of his legal defense fund, the nature of his work for Trump, and saying he owes up to four billion dollars.

  • That is Dr. Evil amounts of money.

    • [Answered] What would be a good glue to repair this spatula with that wont be toxic or come undone in a dishwasher?

    Jump

  • I strongly recommend NO glue and liberal use of your TRASH CAN. Then go get a cast iron frying pan and a METAL flip turner.

    Do this so you do not die a horrible micro plastic PFOS death one day.

    Best!

    • Are there any bath pillows available to make my neck comfortable in a bath where the rim is almost flush with the wall?

    Jump

  • NO.

    Seriously...try one of those silly inflatable pillows for flying. But be ready for some headbanging!

    • Why would the average person choose a brain implant over a skullcap?

    Jump

  • Cyberpunk science fiction sees different interfaces. One that stands out to me that makes a lot of sense is a permanently installed port that you put cartridges / chips into. Like a mini SD card reader in your head that interfaces that data to your brain. example novel

    This seems like a good idea to me because nothing is permanently "installed" that will do anything. The card reader is inert until you put a card it. I would also build in a physical or software "timer" that would eject/unmount the card after a set amount of time. Safety seems very important for something attached to your brain.

    • What is your socially unacceptable guilty indulgence?

    Jump

  • I quit smoking years ago but smoked for a long time. If I ever go back to smoking I think it would be a pipe. I did it once or twice and it was extremely relaxing.

  • That sounds really good. I think I'll try that.

    I sometimes do similar but unsalted mixed nuts instead of peanut butter.

    • An opinion downvoted to hell is actually a good indication that the opinion is indeed unpopular.

  • I think we need to downvote this to hell.

  • Edward Tufte, of Information is Beautiful fame, generally advises AGAINST using PowerPoint for presentations largely because of the low information density. Powerpoint, generally, forces you to put a LOW amount of information on the screen which can really be a problem in some situations.

    His advice: Create a Word doc and give that as a handout.

    • Multilingual folks: what are some odd idioms in your language(s)?

  • These are interesting. Which language?

    • What does "next Saturday" mean

    Jump

  • This always bothers me when I hear it. If you MEAN Saturday just SAY Saturday, no need to bring a confusing "next" into the equation. If I need to know, I'll ask for clarity.
