I've been using these power supply adapters that replace batteries. I have some AA- and AAA-powered lights in my office that now all run off of one smart plug. Handy! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CQ7Y9SSL

Trying to convince myself I can't justify spending money on a 3D printer while they're on sale for Black Friday. Me: Ooh, get a 3D printer. Other Me: You don't need a 3D printer (but you sure do want one). Other, Other Me: Come on, guys, I'm serious. Close the tab.

Is there an unspoken rule that products and services shouldn't link to their apps on their websites? Every time I buy an app-connected Thing, I can never find their app linked on their own site. I WANT it to be linked, 'cause it's an easy way to confirm the validity of the app.

A movie about an irresponsible, depressed stuntman who should probably be writing screenplays. Without searching, can you name the film?

The knife ghost is legitimately terrifying

The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing people they shouldn't have their microphone in view when they're on video calls.

I'm a side sleeper. I've been having a lot of shoulder pain in the past few months so I decided to try something new. This pillow has been amazing! Comfy, pain-free knees, shoulders, ankles, and neck. This isn't sponsored, I just wanted to share with other side sleepers. 😴 https://a.co/d/8WokvbC

Are we thinking moles or gophers here, folks?

Wide-angle Henri!
