inHot take: spray out booths have changed a lot in 5 years and nobody talks about it
Did moisture control really cut your fisheyes more than the booth itself?

inMy uncle swore the 'speed up your PC' trick from 2009 still works, so I tried it on my mom's old laptop
Reminds me of when my dad told me to run defrag on my laptop that kept shutting off randomly. I ran it three times, which took like four hours, and it still shut off. Turned out the fan was packed with dust and the thing was overheating. He meant well but he was solving a 2005 problem on a 2015 machine.

inWhy does nobody talk about the 'too perfect' grammar tell
That thing about them correcting your typo with perfect manners is wild lol. Did they fix it in a way that felt copy pasted or did it actually sound like a person? I'm curious if they ever slipped up at all in those 412 comments.

inSet up 2FA on my email 6 months ago, picked the app over texts, and it saved me twice already
The bite usually comes from losing your phone or wiping it without a backup. Authenticator apps store the secret on the device, so a factory reset with no cloud backup means you're locked out and stuck in account recovery, which can take days. That's the trade off nobody talks about when they hype apps over texts. Keep your backup codes somewhere offline, like printed or in a password manager, and save the QR code too when you set it up. The app is still the better call since SIM swaps are way too easy to pull off now.
