Reply to LPT: To prevent warping of cookware, leave them out to cool slowly after use instead of pouring cold water on them by sKalyse
Equally, if you’re worried about food sticking, put the cookware in very hot dishwasher and wait for it to cool down enough to clean.

Any book cover that’s obviously trying to trick the customer into getting it. So covers the imitate the cover of best sellers; covers that use the same font style and colour schemes, etc.

Reply to LPT, Phone needs to go! by Next-Conclusion-3071
I know this isn’t what you want to hear, but spending money on a new phone won’t solve the problem. Even the biggest app addiction can be beaten with willpower.
The trick is to challenge yourself to quit for a short time - like 3 days without gaming or social media. When you’ve completed that, you can re-download the app, or challenge yourself self to go one more day without. You’ll soon realise you don’t really need it even if it’s there.
Most of the time we go on our phones automatically without thinking. Whenever I pick up my phone automatically, I stop and ask myself why I need to go on my phone - if I don’t have a good reason, I put it back down because it’s good to feel bored sometimes.

Reply to LPT request: how can I make my house more secure and less vulnerable for burglary. by chiduuuu
Call a locksmith immediately and get your locks changed as quickly as possible.
Don’t keep your keys near a window. At night, draw the curtains so people can’t look in.
Look for a burglar alarm you can set when leaving the house and also when you go to bed.

Watch a film or tv show you know really well - like one that you can quote word-for-word - but watch it dubbed with the language you’re trying to learn.
