Life Hack #560

The next time you’re eating pay attention to your nose. If it’s running or you get the sniffles, you’re probably having a histamine reaction, which is your body telling you you’ve had enough. 

Life Hack #561

If you ever come across a random USB drive, don't plug it in! A common scam uses this technique to infiltrate your computer by putting spyware/malware on USB keys and leaving them in places where people will find them. 

Life Hack #562

Get in the habit of copying a message, forum post, etc. on a website before you hit submit. That way if it doesn’t go through for whatever reason, you can just paste it in and try again.
