LPT – when debating with someone, keep your sentences as short and concise (and true) as possible. This is true of bad faith actors in particular, who love exploiting any tiny thing you’ve said that may be “technically” incorrect but have nothing to do with the main point. For example, if I wanted to follow my own advice, I should have cut this description part short and said “This can help stop your opponent from focusing on semantics”. But …

LPT Easiest solution to determine if your freezer has stopped working during an outage, or any other situation. LPT: I’ll make it short and sweet. You don’t need a penny, or a cup of frozen water. Throw an icecube in a zip lock bag. Keep it in your freezer. If the ice cube is melted – no longer a cube, your freezer stopped working. Easy. Gosh…KISS submitted by /u/bex021

LPT If you are posting that the assassination attempt on Trump was staged or a false flag, you are suffering from Alex Jones syndrome and need immediate mental health care. The best marksman on the entire planet could not guarantee to hit your ear instead of your eye. Nor would they agree to shoot a live round at a former head of state while surrounded by a crowd. The shooter was blown away on camera and the pictures of his half-faced bloody body are readily available. This is a real and serious disorder that can a…

LPT Check tire pressure on wheelbarrows and dollies Of course this is meaningful only of the tires are pneumatic. Several times when I’ve borrowed these items, the tires were very low, and the owners had no clue. I even had a flat on brand new wheelbarrow. Even if it’s you own, it may have lost pressure since you used it last. A completely flat tire can look fine until you put weight on it, and a…

LPT Before you go on a trip, freeze a container of water then sit a coin on top in your freezer. If your power goes out long enough for things to thaw, the coin will be inside the ice when you get home. submitted by /u/Chance_Answer7984

LPT remember that however important it is to persevere with something, it’s more important to know when to cut your losses submitted by /u/pufballcat

LPT : Save your phone’s eSIM connection info somewhere you can always access it. With 2FA as common as it is now, it is nearly impossible to log in to some accounts without your phone. If you lose or break your phone, you are stuck until you can get a new one. I just bought a new iPhone from Best Buy, thinking I could easily transfer the eSIM. I can’t transfer it from the old iPhone because it is broken. I can’t login to my …

LPT Order one size up for pillow inserts. Just ordered some fresh pillows, but they look a bit deflated. My wife sees them and immediately asks if I ordered one size up for the inserts “like you’re supposed to.” Sigh. Passing along the knowledge. H/t u/MedicineChess submitted by /u/-The_Big_El-

Lpt when coming back from a concert and using public transport, go a station back Once I went to a concert in a city I was unfamiliar with and I took the metro the wrong way. I stepped out and went the other way. The result was that the train was empty a station back, and was full when it went to the station exiting the concert. Mening that you can enjoy a seat, while otherwise you would’ve standed. submitted by /u/Mah…

LPT Buy a prepaid cellphone plan LPT try switching to a prepaid wireless plan from your typical post paid plan. My wireless bill went from $90 to $45. I’m on Verizon. There’s are discount tiers as well (not sure if other carriers have these). I’m down to paying only $40 a month and in a few months I’ll qualify for $35 a month. submitted by /u/muhnahser

LPT .When creating an account with psn, Xbox etc do not use a email address provided by your ISP. You should always create a email address using hotmail, gmail or any other email service.

LPT rinse your dishes off as your putting them in the sink. I find running my hand over my dishes and a quick rinse makes washing so much easier. I guess a bonus would be while rinsing pots and pans, using your hand and finger nails to get food off the dish makes it to where there is virtually no hard to scrub areas later submitted by /u/KingsOFcalamity

LPT If you dislike minty toothpaste, try some of the kids fun flavored varieties. SO doesn’t like mint flavors and that’s the standard in most toothpastes. Just picked up some bubble gum flavored kind and it’s a hit. Slightly less fluoride but still effective. submitted by /u/penciljockey123

LPT Alcohol dependency might not look the way you expect. Having been alcohol dependent for some years, I can tell you it’s not an obvious thing for an outsider to spot. If you expect the person to be stumbling drunk, comatose with a hangover or visibly shaking from withdrawl, then you could well miss it. I drink every night, half a dozen beers. It started because of chronic pain. I am high functionin…

LPT In an emergency, an ordinary hand sanitizing spray applied to sweaty places completely removes body odor. Disclaimer! -Do not use it on a dialy basis, as it dries out the skin. -It removes body odor by killing bacteria with alcohol, but if you’re still sweating, you’ll get odor back, so keep that antiperspirant at hand. submitted by /u/velatieren

LPT – If you’re buying a previous generation product, buy the most generic variant Imagine this.. You’re on the lookout for a headphone. You find that the Sony xm4 is good, and more importantly it is on a discount because the xm5 is the latest version. Great deal right? There are three colors. Black, blue and cream. Get the black one! Why? – It’s gonna be the most sold variant – So the black one probably was recently manufac…
