inBought a $200 'pro' pocket hole jig that broke after two uses
Plastic handles on tools are the worst. They get slick with sweat and crack in the cold. Give me a solid piece of rubber or wood any day. My old hammer has a wood handle I can actually hold onto. That cheap plastic stuff is just a way to save a buck.

inA friend in Austin showed me how easy it is to see saved Wi-Fi passwords
My old roommate in college used to do that to get free internet from our neighbors. He'd borrow a laptop, find their saved network password in the settings, and then just connect all his own stuff. It was way too easy. I started using a password manager after that, not just for websites but to store the wifi key too, so it's not just sitting in plain text on the machine. You have to open the manager and unlock it with a master password first. It adds one extra step but feels way more secure.
