Hi everyone! I recently got a splash guard for my sink and I love it so much! For some reason I didn't even know they existed until like 2 weeks ago, but it's an absolute game-changer. I don't have a dishwasher, so I have to do the dishes manually, and I was so tired of the constant puddles around the sink and wet t-shirts. So I would definitely recommend getting some for your sinks as well!

If anyone's curious, here's the link to where I got mine from, it's quite cheap but sturdy!

Opinion on faucets with retractable hoses (like in the pic)?

Hi! I need to get a new faucet for my kitchen and was thinking about trying one with a retractable hose. It looks very convenient, especially since I don't have a dishwasher and doing the dishes is a pain. What I'm worried about is whether this mechanism deteriorates with time? Does the hose get loose and start detaching with time or I shouldn't expect such issue?

In the description of this faucet they mention magnetic suction design, so I imagine it shouldn't lose its retractable qualities with time, right?

If you have a faucet like this, please share your experience with it overtime and tell me if it's worth the investment!

Hi! I own a Nintendo Switch and a gaming laptop and I'm thinking about getting a controller that can be used on both. I used to get by with joy-cons and regular keyboard+mouse combo, but I tried a PS controller at my friend's and it was way more convenient. I am now thinking of killing two birds with one stone and getting a normal controller that could work on everything (I found a couple of good options, like this one on Esperanze that works on Switch, PC and mobile). However, I'm worried that it might not perform as well as Nintendo's own controller would, for example. But at the same time, I've heard that Switch controllers don't work well on PC, so I don't even know which option would be better.

If you use an off-brand controller (especially for Switch), please share your experience. Does it lag, does it connect easily, do you use it with other devices?

Hi! As not a medical worker and not an American, I was wondering if the show's addressing the characters by their last names is a normal thing for their environment or something more fictional. To me, it feels slightly weird that coworkers who know each other for a long time don't refer to each other by their first names. I understand that they're doctors and that's how it works with their patients, but that's a little weird for their personal relationships.

Also, nurses are addressed by their first names exclusively -- by their patients and colleagues -- why doesn't it work with doctors? Can you please explain how it works in this sort of professional environment? Is it the same in other fields?

Hi! I've noticed that a lot of people are buying projectors, and it looks very convenient - to be able to watch a film in any room basically. I'm also considering buying one, maybe even replacing a TV.

But what I'm worried about is the color/brightness. I found a really cool projector on Top Shelf Buys; it promises 4K, vivid colors, and all those perks, but how feasible is it to have a clear, vibrant picture with a projector? Do they work alright in daylight or is it for night time only? Do I need to have blackout curtains for it to work? Please share your experience and also what price range to expect!

Hi! I really need some extra cash, and I can't really come up with anything other than starting to sell things online. I'm considering Amazon, but I've heard that it's quite difficult to manage. I've checked a couple of "Amazon for beginners" guides from Envictara, but I still don't get an idea on how profitable it is, how much I will have to invest and how soon I will see the results.

If anybody tried Amazon, please share your experience.
