Geekologie: Cut A Bottle With String, Acetone, And Fire

From Geekologie:



"You can cut a beer bottle using string dipped in acetone and then setting it on fire. The video is a demonstration. I like how the guy in the video shows you some great uses for the bottle after you've removed the top. Apparently it makes a great toothbrush holder or place to store desk supplies. While I did enjoy this novel approach to glass cutting, I already have my own bottle cutter. It's called the sidewalk. You may not be left with a toothbrush holder afterwards, but it will significantly decrease foot-traffic in your neighborhood."

Consolidate Your iTunes Library


I can't say how many hours of my life I've spent obsessing about the location of the music on my computer. I have a relatively tiny primary hard drive and a larger secondary drive, and I prefer to keep large files on the secondary for better performance. Those who use laptops don't have these issues.

Before now, I thought one had to transfer each file manually, and I've spent a good amount of time doing just that. Well, iTunes has a tool for that, and it actually works like it's supposed to.

I'd still like to have those hours back.
