inJust read that over 60 countries now have laws that can force you to hand over your phone password
That idea about your passcode being your last line of defense is where I see it differently. If the police have a warrant, they can already search your house or your car. Your phone is just another place they might need to look for evidence in a serious case. I'm more worried about hackers than the law following the right steps. The real problem is when these powers get misused, not that they exist at all.

inVent: I spent $90 on a fancy camp pillow and it was a huge mistake
Remember that time I bought a super expensive sleeping bag that was supposed to be a game changer. It was so stiff it felt like I was zipping myself into a giant potato chip bag. Spent the whole first night listening to the crinkling noise and staring at the stars, wondering why I didn't just use my old reliable one. Sometimes the fancy gear is just fancy, not better. I've had way more luck with a simple stuff sack full of my extra clothes, it molds to your head and costs nothing.

inFinally got my book club to actually debate a book instead of just chatting
Wait, what snacks are we even talking about here? Because @emerycarr, if it's just like a bag of pretzels, that's a letdown. We need details. Are we debating the best chip flavor or planning a full snack spread for a game? This is important stuff.

inShowerthought: I just realized I've used over 200 feet of trim in this house
That's a lot of trim. My back hurts just thinking about cutting all those 45 degree angles.
