LPT – It takes 5 minutes a day and almost no cost to maintain dental hygiene. It takes a lifetime and a lot of money to correct it. 2 minute brush and mouthwash in the AM, 2 minute brush and floss in the PM. Doing these daily can prevent all sorts of decay and bacteria issues that would be extremely costly and time consuming to correct if left unchecked. submitted by /u/FewBarnacle701

LPT: Thinking a comment on a post is posted by a bot ? I just found out if you reply to a comment with just : u/bot-sleuth-bot you can have an actual bot asses a user and say if it thinks they are a bot. May be old news but thought I’d share considering the amount of bots on here lately seemingly. Hope everyone has a blessed afternoon or morning or whatever time it may be wherever you may be 🙂 submitted by /u/Dank4dank

LPT Text-based AI assistants are more effective than productivity apps because they work where you already spend time Instead of downloading another app you’ll forget about, use an AI assistant that lives in your default messaging app. You’ll actually stick to it because it feels like texting a friend rather than managing another system. Plus, there’s no new interface to learn – it just works with how you naturally communicate. I’ve seen massive improvements in…

LPT : If you can, look at reviews from Japanese people because they are absolutely amazing Japanese product reviews are often super detailed, They break down everything from quality to performance, and even usability. People highlight both what’s great and what’s not Example review of a cheap projector: The exterior feels a bit plasticky. The accessories are simple and easy to understand. The protective film on the lens is difficult t…

LPT: Want to get away from election coverage? Rather you are happy or sad with the outcome of our election. I personally hate listening to it over and over again. Tune in to ESPN for 24/7 sports. Even if you dislike sports, it may be better than listening to the rest of the media. submitted by /u/itcanhappen247

LPT:If you struggle getting your fruit intake for the day, eat a handful of grapes or some tangerines after a workout I like fruit but it’s not always easy to grab some when competing against junk food. I discovered that right after a workout instead of chugging water when I get home I wolf down cold tangerines and grapes from the fridge. It hits the spot like you wouldn’t believe. Watermelon is also right up there. submitted by /u/Specific_Bed9463

LPT Election Night Tip: Customize your iPhone’s ‘Driving’ Focus auto-reply to protect your peace tonight (without ghosting your homies) Hi everyone! Since it’s unlikely we’ll know the true outcome of the election tonight, I’ve decided to safeguard my mental health a little by silencing my notifications. But simply silencing all notifications could pose an issue if someone’s trying to reach me for other reasons. So I set up a custom auto-reply message using my iPhone’s Driving F…

LPT: If you’re in America and the next few days find you in a mental health crisis, you can dial or text “988” in all 50 states to be connected to a crisis counselor. Veterans can press “1” after dialing 988 to connect with the Veterans Crisis Lifeline. Veterans can also text the Veterans Crisis Lifeline short code at 838255. Also, I would be remiss if I didn’t say that 988 isn’t without issues and limitations, and is known for being somewhat “unfriendly” to people they deem not to be in crisis. Also worth co…

LPT You can order an uber to jump start your car battery You can order an uber (or similar services) for a very random close distance so that it will only charge you like 5£€$ or so and as they are arriving message them that you don’t actually need the ride, just them to pull up next to your car. I have done this twice. First time when I was in a hurry to get to work and couldn’t uber as it was too fa…

LPT When attempting to break glass, such as a house window or a car window, aim for the corners rather than the center. The center of the glass is more flexible and can absorb a greater number of impacts, while the corners are structurally weaker and more prone to shattering. submitted by /u/brMerak

LPT: Update: Went to my first GA meeting tonight (thanks to you guys) This is after 5 years of gambling and losing over $500k at age 25. What are some more proactive steps I can take to make it through strong? Felt amazing to be understood and share my pain with others. I’ve been through hell, I’ve seen many things people wouldn’t believe about the gambling industry. I wasn’t sure what to expect after battling a gambling addiction for 5 years. It came to my amazement that the people I surrounded myself with tonight, have been on a similar journey. …

LPT: If watching live youtube, play on 2x speed. If it off from the live, it’ll speed up until it matches the live part. Unfortunately, it stops the 2x speed when it reaches the live part, so you will not be able to look into the future. submitted by /u/SkGiles

LPT: Start your day by drinking a glass of water – simple, but it wakes you up better than coffee. Starting your morning with a glass of water has benefits that go beyond hydration! Water helps kickstart your metabolism, boosts brain function, and even improves your mood by reducing dehydration-related fatigue. While coffee might give a quick jolt, water provides a more stable wake-up effect without the caffeine crash. Try adding a slice of l…

LPT…..When moving out of your apartment or house. Music first. When moving out, I make it a strong rule the last thing to pack is your stereo, sound system, or boom box. The next step is, the first thing you set up in your new place. Tunes the whole time!! submitted by /u/BenBcRazy

LPT : if you moved to a different state, NOTIFY YOUR HEALTH INSURANCE COMPANY You have to notify your health insurance company you moved states within 60 days. Otherwise, all it is good for is ER visits and prescription meds. I found this out when I moved back to Chicago from New Jersey. I was fucked. You will likely need new health insurance, which qualifies under the “major life event” category. If you are late now, and…

LPT: Do not chase or antagonize the “ding dong ditch” kids. Do not say anything to them or even react to it. It’s possible that one of them could have a gun and threaten to use it. They also now know where you live If you open the door and react. Yup, just found this out myself. submitted by /u/Yakkamota

LPT if you get a puppy, expose them triggering sounds as early as possible to avoid anxiety We got a puppy during COVID. To avoid him becoming an anxious dog, we played triggering noises over our speakers while he was in a safe, calm setting (sirens, fireworks, etc.). Last week he calmly watched fireworks with us that were happening virtually right outside the balcony. Very grateful that we did this since we live in a city where firewo…
