LPT – when door to door solar sales people come over say your a renter and you don’t know the owner. They’ll walk away. Works every time submitted by /u/B-Georgio
How do I avoid giving away too much for free as a hobbyist-turning-professional event photographer? Long time commercial photographer here (food and products). I have recently been attending events to practice event photography, enjoy the music and get to know the local musicians, hence why I give away the resulting high rez photos for free. However, I’ve got to the point where I’ve picked favorites, and I plan to attend their live events agai…

How Does One Give Away Free CDs? Seeking advice from music lovers! The TL;DR version: I want to give away my band’s CD for free. But I’m not sure how to best reach people who might want it. In short: how can I reach rock fans who still listen to compact discs? More detail: I had a goofy rock band (I won’t post the name due to group rules). We played some shows and made an album…
LPT – When you’re away from home (at hotel, office etc) and have constipation due to unfamiliar territory… TLDR: close your eyes and imagine shitting at home. You’re at a hotel for several days. But your bowel won’t move. You feel bloated and want to shit, but when you sit at the shitter, the shit just refused to come out. Stand back about 5-10 meters from the shitter. Close your eyes. Imagine you drive/walk to home or wherever places you have very …
The Global Turn Away From Free-Market Policies Worries Economists More countries are embracing measures meant to encourage their own security and independence, a trend that some say could slow global growth.
Wife gave birth to our twin girls…want to start putting money away for them. Need advise. Hi all, As the title says my wife and I welcomed our twin girls about a month ago. These are our first children and we want to start putting money in an account for them to grow as they grow. I have done some research so far and decided we DO NOT want a 529 account. I am looking for something more flexible that the child could use whether they…

LPT Request: How do get stuff done when deadlines are so far away I literally can’t get anything done unless it’s due very soon. What ends up happening is several deadlines merge together and I end up so stressed for a few days. My hair even starts falling out. I’ve tried setting deadlines for myself to get it done earlier but without the consequence of not getting it done they mean nothing to me. Any other ti…

I’m about to sign for a mortgage but I have enough money in the bank for a sizable recast pretty much right away, should I? Bit of background here: So I’ve been hesitant to invest in anything more volatile than a savings account, outside of retirement contributions, pretty much my entire life, outside of about an S&P index fund holding worth around $14K (given what it started at, I probably should have put some more into that over time instead of just letting it sit …
LPT: before you throw away dryer sheets, use them as a “dust cloth” for a few seconds and tidy up neglected nooks and crannies Especially if you have a dog that sheds. It only takes a few days for gnarly fur clusters to appear seemingly out of thin air. Spent dryer sheets (I tend to use them twice or more) work decently as a quick dust cloth. You’re going to throw it away anyway, might as well take 30 seconds and touch up a spot that needs a little dusting. submitt…

Will my passport be turned away in Indonesia? Hi everyone, I have a passport with just general wear and tear, except the cover page (not my picture but same idea) is half faded. I hold an EU passport. Because the front was faded we decided against going to Bali as we know I would probably be turned away. I’ve heard that entry to Indonesia is less strict elsewhere. The only place we are goin…

Which great shows will you not enjoy if you do not put the phone away? There are some shows that have so much depth and detail that any distraction will you have miss out on so much. For me it was the Wire. It took me some more watching to understand the initial downfall of mayor Royce and what led up to his loss. With breaking bad/The boys I could watch it while on Reddit or twitter and still enjoy it. submi…
500mm Reflex lens for “plane” photography? (recording rocket launches from a hundred miles away) Has anyone used a long telephoto reflex/mirror lens for shooting things like rocket launches? My 85mm at 1.5x cropped to about 130mm isn’t giving me quite enough reach. I had thought about buying a traditional telephoto, but a 500mm FF lens would be too unwieldy to aim up in the sky for 10 minutes, and would also be pretty expensive. Enter the…
