    My great uncle died st 105 and was the inventor of and had patented (in the US) the valve that makes hot and cold water come out of the same faucet. I lived in Victorian buildings in San Francisco and often had the two faucet system; it was awful. Thank goodness for Uncle Dickel ❤

    When I was younger, I remember adults using the expression, "mind your P's and Q's. It seemed like a more polite way of saying 'mind your own business', or 'behave yourself'. But I never really knew. 40 years later at a party I heard someone telling the story. The expression was started and used by British bartender's, someone drinking beer and getting a little loud or out of hand were told to "Mind their Pints and Quarts", the 2 sizes of containers beer was served in. Who knew!! LOL

      by British (bartender's) = bartender is? The plural for bartender is bartenders. Also it was not so much about those getting loud or out of hand, it was primarily in reference to those who were running a tab to 'mind their P's & Q's' they are going to have to account for and pay in full, which they can easily lose track of when the drinks are flowing freely.

      I was taught it was derived from the typesetting industry. Typesetters put little metal letters (called “sorts”) in a frame to make the words that get printed so you can then read books, magazines and newspapers. They have to do it backwards, though, so it will appear the proper way when printed. When setting these sorts backwards, “p” looks like “q” and “q” looks like “p” and it’s easy to make mistakes. Ergo “mind your Ps and Qs”. Also- the typesetter had to hope he didn’t run out of the most common letters (e, l, t, n etc.) before he reached the end of the page. If he did, you can be sure he felt “out of sorts”. I dunno, but it seems to me to be less far fetched and make more sense than “pints and quarts”.

    One of my favorite hidden features on cars is an arrow indicating the side with the gas cap. Look at your gas gauge, right there next to the E is an arrow indicating which side of the car the gas cap is located. It doesn't really matter on your own car because you probably know which side the gas cap is on, but it is very handy if you ever rent a car.

    POOL NOODLES are also perfect for protecting tree trunks on new tiny trees - just cut to length and cut a slit up the side to slide it on; protects it from nibbling deer, and often you won't have to stake the tree or, if you do, protects the cord from cutting into the bark. Besides, the bright colors will hopefully keep idiots from driving/mowing/weed eating it down. ALSO... cut lengths of pool noodles as boot trees to keep them from wrinkling, sagging or flopping over.

    Frenches mustard is good for burns. Years ago, when I worked at Walmart I was heating up a cup of water in the Micro wave oven for my instant coffee. As I reached in and was pulling it towards me it caught on the rim of the turn table and tipped, boiling water splashed onto my midriff right through my clothes. The boiling water had melted my skin away on that spot and the pain was excruciating. One of my coworkers ran and bought a bottle of Frenches mustard
    smeared it all over my burned skin. The mustard soothed the injury and days later there was absolutely no scar, just pink skin.

    Fair warning about hand sanitizers: excessive use can be harmful. Overuse of sanitizers can leave skin irritated and sensitive to UV light (by removing natural oils). Sanitizers that contain Triclosan instead of alcohol can cause allergic reactions. A simple 'search' can provide more detailed information.

      Unlike what the video says, you should NOT use it on your cellphones screen to clean it. On every cellphone screen there is a coating that makes the screen feel smooth to the touch to allow for easy movement of your fingers on the screen. Using any kind of alchohol based cleaner does clean the screen, but it also removes that coating that makes the screen feel nice and slippery like its supposed to be.

Years later they have skin cancer or some other illness cause they removed of all the good bacteria while keeping the bad bacteria off. So while people live a life of panic and fear they are slowly destroying them self's for the sake of staying clean. Same goes for your intestines.

Quite often rest sites along the country roads are placed at a historical site. If you take a break noth of Stockholm, by the highway, you are at the site where the midieval kings were sworn in, Mora stenar. Marked by that sign and an information board.

    As told to me by a bartender; "No nick" glasses are also called this due to each bar/pub stocking a slightly different version bulbous drinkwear. Prior to their introduction, patrons would steal or "nick" these cups for their personal home use, eventually compiling a full matching set for themselves. When the "no nick" pints were introduced, this problem became less and less prevalent, as the would-be thieves did not want set of glasses that did not match each other. Also, as each bar/pub had unique cups, the fact that they were stolen and where they were stolen from would be apparent to their guests. Not sure if this factoid is 100% accurate, but it is definitely an interesting take on the subject.

      Look under the lid too, many condiments have a rubber seal (with an × shaped cut/opening) stuck under the cap that's meant to make less mess than just a hole in a cap would. Tends to be more common on the larger bottles.

    Edit-And you won't have to clean cheese off of your bank card which would really grate on you!!.. 😉✌

    The mustard cap one was new for me, but that was the only new one. Thanks for that though. My kids and family (at gatherings) are always making a mess of the condiments. I'll be sure to pass this one along. I just wish Heinz did this too, for their ketchup and relish bottles, and Miracle Whip, mayo, BBQ, and salad dressing manufacturers for their squeeze bottles.

    If you don't have an eraser, sometimes gel hand sanitizer takes adhesive off of stuff too.
    You can also take spills off of cotton clothing before a stain sets in by blotting it with a clean paper towel dampened with 70% or 91% isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol; I think it works just as good if not better than hand sanitizer.
    You can also add a good amount of rubbing alcohol to your bottle of hand sanitizer when it gets low. I usually add enough alcohol to fill 1/4 to 1/2 of the hand sanitizer bottle then shake a few seconds until it thickens and keep adding a little more as long as it keeps thickening. Just remember to keep your hands away from open fire until they're completely dry after using.

Over time and repeated heating, left-over dirty food and stains can cause the paint inside the microwave to burn, leading to the arcing, burning, and even melting of dirty plastic parts. The touch-up paint we used to use to repair this never really worked as well as it should have, and sometimes the touch-up paint did not perform as well as the manufacturers’ paint jobs did. At times, it didn't work effectively.

      @Thalanox 2 года назад +11

      If you've already got some odour on your feet or in your armpits that no amount of washing and scrubbing seems to work on, then you can try rubbing some stainless steel on it.
      The stink is caused by sulfur compounds. When you rub stainless steel on it, you're basically swapping out the sulfur with the iron in the steel. That's because sulfur and iron are very similar sizes and have the same valence charge, which allows them to substitute for each other in many compounds. There are stainless steel bars that are molded to look like bars of soap, or you can look for anything around that has rounded edges that's made of stainless steel. A simple tablespoon will get the job done. Rub the steel on the malodorous part of your body thoroughly, and then remember to wash the spoon before using it on food if you try that.
      Edit: Do the stain-less steel rubbing when you're washing up, after you've already given yourself a good wash.

I am going to back to using plastic phone cases to see if this cures my one bar problem when I am at home and work. I get full bars when I am out and about in most areas. Thank you for creating this. I have an iPhone 13 and there are lines on each side of the top of my phone and two lines on each side of the bottom. I shamefully thought it was part of the design just a style feature. I have two bars now that I've taken the case off. As I was typing this, I was listening to this video and heard about the double tapping of the apple on the back. Thank you!!!! Reading the apple iPhone manual is on my to do list... It's been there for a long while (going on ten years now). It just never made priority and I still think on vacation one day I might find time to read through the latest manual. 🙂 I look forward to learning more useful tips. I love the towel one. I am top heavy.... I am going to try it tomorrow as I am tired of having to adjust the towel while brushing my teeth after I get out the shower. Sorry, I think brushing while showering is gross.

    This with the microwave is no secret, it is taught in school. In fact, the grid has a certain size of holes. The reason is that if the holes are smaller than the wavelength of the microwaves they cannot pass through, but at the same time you can see inside because visible light is of a shorter wavelength and passes through. Something like trying to sift through a flour sieve, for example, peas. It can't go through because its grains are much bigger than the holes, but the flour goes through without a problem.

    I remember those early Apple computers. As we could see from the image of the keyboard but you neglected to mention was that there were two Apple keys, one that was just an outline (on the left) and one that was filled in (on the right). They were called Open Apple and Closed Apple, respectively, and they did two different things: essentially the original command/control and alt.

    15:25 A super faster way to take a screenshot is to press the on/off button on the top right side and the channel button at the bottom, just press and hold these two bad boys till you hear a snapping sound like you're taking a photo. Try it.
    17:45 The coin insertion unlocks the shopping cart to another shopping cart in a row at the front of the Mart. Thus if you want your coin back you have to bring the cart back to the row at the front of the Supermart, there is a thingy that inserts into a slot that will release your coin; your cart is now locked into the rest of the carts. This is a sneaky way of solving the ugly habit of shoppers dropping off the shopping carts all over the place.

    A lot of people don't know how to properly use aluminum foil. When using the foil to cook on a baking sheet it should go shiny side down, and when using foil to wrap something it's to go shiny side up or shiny side out.

      @@peterdavies137 You aren't wrong. I worked as a calibration technician in the US and I agree the US needs to change some of the more common units of measurement as well. I wish the world was using metric for measurements and celcius for ambient or near ambient temperatures. I understand kelvin is used in research and development and other scientific endeavors, but everything else really needs to stop being so complicated.

      Actually I was going to say that you shouldn't. I've been using computers and technology stuff for over 50 years. You shouldn't use hand sanitizer on anything electronic. WHY? Because The screen has a very thin protective contrast coating that can get ruined from the high concentration of rubbing Alcohol in hand sanitizer. Also. Since most hand sanitizer has other ingredients for moisturizing hands because pure rubbing alcohol is Drying to skin. This can cause your screen to get a grease film you can never get rid of. It becomes a vicious circle. Screen cleaner is rubbing Alcohol Water and preservatives. To prevent fungus and microbes from growing. But hey. If you're okay with ruining expensive stuff. You do you...
