Someone should also repost the article where the company admits that they know it's terrible, but that stupid content gets shared a lot more than anything else.

Like, it's there, but if you try to use it, the handle just slips back down immediately. There's no way to lock it in place. That image is still stupid for a whole lot of reasons, mind.

Eh, I've done this before in super cold weather when I didn't have very good gloves. Beats holding a cold thing for several minutes and getting frostbite on your hands. #Arctichax

This is one of the only "real" ones from before they started that gimmick. It was made by someone on their staff whose submissions were notoriously lovely even among the people running the site, and it was hated so much they never stopped doing bad lifehacks since it got them way more visitors than attempting to post real ones.

Karate Bastard posted:Speaking of books, a while back someone ran a gas chromatograph over library books and found trace amounts of cocaine on everything (and crabs on fiddy shay but that's neither here nor there). My question is how far up Dewey's decimal do I have to huff until I start feeling it? Asking for a friend, obviously. Start in the Law and Economics sections, then move to Cooking. Also if your library carries manga, don't snort those. Friend of mine got a bad trip snorting Akira one time.

Xythe posted:And holy poo poo they recommend putting your WiFi info on the book spine. This isn't a huge security risk because if someone is in your house them getting on your internet probably isn't your largest concern, but I can't think of a time it will ever be beneficial. Well, sometimes people (friends, family, etc.) come to your house and want to connect to your wifi.

There's no way to lock it in place. I felt like an idiot for years because they taught us how to use the lock in driving school and I never got it to work afterwards and then a taxi driver friend like 20 years later told me it's because they don't work on any of the stations I'd lived near.

Yeah, a lot of places have local laws against hold-opens, so occasionally you'll see one that has the latch flapper on the handle, but the ridged bit it catches on has been removed, that's the most likely explanation for when it doesn't work.

I like how one of these is just straight up how to break into something secured with a cheap padlock. That's not really a lifehack, more of a potential crime.
