Man, that third try feeling is the worst. I've been there, and that little dab of anaerobic sealant on the cooler itself is the real trick (the gaskets alone just don't seem to cut it sometimes). Letting it cure before you add oil is key, too, otherwise the oil just washes it right out. Glad you got it sealed up.

Yeah I started using a password manager last year and it made me actually think about what I was protecting. I mean before that I was just clearing cookies when sites broke, but now I have a real reason to care about my logins. It sort of forced me into better habits without it feeling like a chore.

Ever tried a secret vote to just force a decision?

Oh man, that's hilarious. I read a blog post once where a guy kept trying to 'fix' his friend's DVD collection by grouping all the sequels together, but his friend just had them in the order he bought them. It's like a secret code only the owner knows, lmao. Your date system story totally reminds me of that.

Right? It's a hard habit to break once you're used to mixing everything smooth.
