Compared two budget phone repair shops after my screen cracked last month

Yeah man, that sucks. Paying twice sucks worse.

Spent 45 minutes looking for a file I saved with a cryptic name in 2019

Eh, 45 minutes is way different than scrolling through downloads for a few minutes here and there lol. Old downloads folders are usually just one or two clicks away, but buried folders inside folders named "stuff" is a whole different beast. I had a similar folder setup called "misc" inside "desktop crap" and it took me an hour to find a PDF I needed for taxes once. Not exactly a fun nostalgia trip when you're sweating over a deadline.

Tried a magnetic phone mount after years of using clamp-style holders. Night and day difference on bumpy roads.

That Scosche mount is solid for the price. My buddy Tim has one in his lifted Tacoma and he swears by it even when he's bouncing down logging roads. The magnet is strong enough that he accidentally stuck his keys to the dash once and had to peel them off. Probably the only thing I'd warn about is putting the metal plate directly on the phone case instead of the phone itself, I've heard stories of the adhesive messing up the back glass if you ever take it off.

I dropped $600 on a high-end rice cooker and it's the biggest waste in my kitchen

600 bucks on a rice cooker is rough, I feel your pain on that one. The hype machine got us both on that one I guess lol.

Appreciation post: getting popped by a fake CAPTCHA at a coffee shop

Got tricked by one of those fake login screens last month and it locked up my whole phone.
