Which gadget makes your life better?
For me, it’s a bidet toilet seat. I bought one that didn’t really fit as well as I hoped, so now I am shopping for a v2 based on experience. I don’t want to live without one going forward. That’s for sure.
Kindle.
I read a lot. I used to always keep a paperback book with me ever since I was a teenager. My Kindle goes everywhere with me, since I got my first one in 2009. I just wish they’d make them smaller, the first Oasis was the perfect size for carrying around all the time (I’m a guy, no purse).
My Victorinox SAK (model Tinker Deluxe) it just comes in handy so often and I’m glad I’ve got it around.
Electric toothbrush, I feel so cleeeeaaaaan!!
A multitool or swiss army knife: I recommend a Leatherman or Victorinox fit to whatever your daily needs are.
Personally, I swear by my Leatherman Skeletool CX in my pocket and a Victorinox Midnight Manager on my keychain.
Obvious answer: computers.
I wish we got a bidet but my family decided against it. x_x
A pocket knife. Carried one for most of my life at this point.
Also an all metal pen. I always have a writing utensil with me that rugged enough to last years in my pocket.
A set of water pump wrenches. I’ve used them for all kinds of purposes that aren’t water pumps. They grip most things and allow a lotta torque.
Harmony remote control. Even controls my air conditioner.
Garlic press is my second choice. 😎
Laser thermometer. I learned a lot about better temperatures at which to cook things and now get more repeatable results when cooking.
Kitchen scale. Recipes are easier to prepare when weighing ingredients as opposed to using measuring spoons and cups.
Both make food a better experience, which leads to more satisfactory meals and eating less overall.
A laser isn’t going to get you an accurate reading of what the inside of the meat is: Get yourself a meat thermometer instead.
Pretty sure he means the surface temp of where he’s about to put the food to cook.
Use the laser to see how hot the cast iron is before putting the meat on. Or how hot the oil is before deep frying. The laser thermometers are good for that.
For the pan, not the meat.
Oh, that makes way more sense!
My Aeropress. Great quality, espresso-adjacent coffee quickly and easily in the morning.
