Because it’s a day ending in Y, I had to “fix” another childproof bottle. This time, Tylenol had the cap that’s impossible to remove when the arthritis in my hands acts up.

The vast majority of childproof caps use this cap within a cap design, and neutering them is as simple as cutting off and discarding the outer cap. With photos showing how I do it.

The scissors used is a titanium EMT bandage shears. They’ll cut through a penny if needed. grainger.com/product/EMI-Shear

Ok. Gonna be very grumpy here. Because, honestly this feels like whoever came up with this is unaware of how electricity works. clearly they do not watch @TechConnectify

1) If you need these, GET YOUR ASS ONTO A SITE WHERE YOU CAN LEARN FOR FREE HOW TO REPLACE THE OUTLET!!!

2) If things are falling out of your sockets, the sockets should be replaced. If the connection isn’t tight, you’ll get additional resistance, heating up the socket and BURNING THINGS.

3) Replacement cost for a box of outlets will not cost much more… and you’ll be able to use them to replace dangerous ones!

@timrichards Yes, if I were boss of all railways (don't know why I'm not, TBH), I'd have 2 daily services to Broken Hill.

One would be an overnight Sydney - Adelaide train. Leaving Sydney around 19:00, Broken Hill around 09:00, Adelaide around 15:00. Stops between Broken Hill and Adelaide at Peterborough, Jamestown, Crystal Brook & Snowtown. Return run would leave Adelaide around 11am, Broken Hill 17:00 and Sydney 07:00.

The other service would be a daylight DMU, which would spit at Orange, half to Dubbo, the other half to Broken Hill.
