If there’s one thing I regret, it’s taking months to replace a shower door seal. I thought I’d need to call a plumber, but it’s much easier than I expected—I managed to do it myself. For this, you’ll need: Then, follow the steps in this video: All in all, it took me 10 minutes. I should’ve done it sooner. You don’t need any glue—if you’ve measured the thickness of your glass correctly, the seal will just snap onto the glass like magic.

There seems to be a big wave of fake Binance advisor scam attempts. I got a call today, and two of my three brothers were also contacted in recent days, so it seems massive. These two phone numbers are affected, but there are surely many others: 0568143873 , and 0187681322. Update as of November 4, 2025. Another call: 0187681632. Somehow, all or part of Binance’s customer database is out there and is being exploited by scammers. You hear every week about new “data leaks” from large companies or administrations. It’s not so much the data loss that’s critical, but the scam attempts that follow. This example with Binance is a…

I know broken tips are quite common with reMarkable pens. If you’ve broken yours and bought it less than 3 years ago, contact the reMarkable team and they’ll replace it for free. I broke mine and tried to replace it with a 3D-printed cap I bought on Etsy (the yellow one in the photo), but it was so bulky that the pen wouldn’t attach magnetically to the tablet and kept falling off, and I ended up losing that cap too. Eventually, I managed to make a replacement tip using Fimo air-dry clay (link). Here’s how I did it: you sculpt the clay around a new tip (the black end) to…

A follower sent me a screenshot of a Jadia ad for their turmeric mask, and surprise! They illegally used my photo before/after published here even though I’ve never used their product in my life!! They obviously never asked for my opinion or consent. Using my photo to illustrate an article, why not, but using it to prove the effectiveness of their product, which I’ve never used, in an advertisement, I’m speechless!!! It says a lot about how serious this company is. Plus, my before/after photo shows progress over 6 months. Getting that result in 7 days is simply impossible because skin has a minimum 28-day cycle. The ad is false…

(this article is a draft that will be completed later). Cruises used to be a chance to completely disconnect. That’s no longer really the case; Royal Caribbean ships are equipped with Starlink hardware, which allows you to enjoy internet with excellent speed, if you’re willing to pay the price. There are several packages, but I only have one available on my account for the moment. I’ll complete the article later. The package in question is the “VOOM SURF + STREAM Internet Package.” It’s the “Rolls-Royce” package because it gives you internet 24/7 for the entire cruise, with fast speed that allows streaming, video calls, etc. It’s offered at a rate…

It’s always quite difficult to accurately estimate the price of a cruise, as the base fare doesn’t include gratuities, nor drinks, nor excursions. Drinks can be a significant additional budget, and it’s not always easy to find information before you’ve booked. Here’s a rundown for Royal Caribbean cruises. What you can bring on board Upon embarkation, Royal Caribbean allows you to bring beverages (only at the start, this won’t be the case at ports of call). You’re entitled to precisely (per cabin): These drinks must be in your carry-on luggage, not your checked baggage. Obviously, that might not be enough for two people for the duration of the cruise 🙂…

Needing to get to Lyon and Paris, I mistakenly bought an Ouigo train ticket that departed from Lyon Saint-Exupéry airport and not from Lyon Part-Dieu as I had wanted. This mistake turned out to be a good deal: €73 for two people, luggage included, hard to beat! It remained to find an economical way to reach the airport. The solution is called Rhônexpress: a shuttle that every 15 minutes connects Lyon Part-Dieu station to the airport in 30 minutes. The service is reliable and fairly comfortable, it’s perfect. As I like to plan ahead, I bought our Rhônexpress tickets online: €15.20 per person. It was only on site that I…

Roaming Fees Hoping to use your French SIM card in Tunisia? Watch out: depending on your carrier, it could cost you a fortune (really, really expensive)! Except with Free Mobile, you’d have to sell a kidney to use the internet with your French plan. Here’s how much 1 MB of data costs with the four main French mobile carriers (bearing in mind that you can’t do anything with 1 MB). Carrier Rate Free Included in the €20 plan Orange €13.31/MB SFR €15.84/MB Bouygues €16/MB Buy a SIM card before you leave One option is to buy a prepaid SIM card before you leave. Plan ahead a little, as you’ll need…
