Years into what was eventually labeled a “burnout epidemic,” there are countless books, articles, and lectures about how to buck this trend, and achieve some sort of balance in your life.

Though we tend to think about landscaping in terms of lawns, shrubs, and flowers, there are plenty of reasons to consider planting trees in your yard as well.

Getting a flat tire isn’t just a hassle: It can also be expensive. Depending on the circumstances, and what caused the flat, it may be possible to have the tire repaired, instead of replacing it.

With so many different hotels, motels, and roadside inns scattered throughout the country, large chains lure travelers off highways with the promise of familiarity and at least some minimum standards.

It can be daunting to wake up to a new day, then immediately remember that in under an hour, you’ll be squashed up against a stranger on a bus or train—or stuck in traffic, or maybe sweating it out on a long bike ride to the office. The commute can be a downer because so much can go wrong or simply bother you before…

Apple Maps is quickly becoming a great alternative to Google Maps. In some parts of the world, the navigation and street view features are actually better than Google’s. But until now, the app had one major flaw: If you didn’t have the internet, you could not use Apple Maps, period.

Tomatoes are my favorite summer fruit, quickly followed by peaches. The former gets used in mostly savory applications, while the latter is relegated to the world of desserts. But peaches are more versatile than you think. Just like a tomato, they’re comfortable with a little burrata and basil, and equally at home…

When it comes to doing projects around the house, cost is always an issue.

After months spent in a public but invite-only stage, the Arc browser from The Browser Company is now open to the public: Any Mac user can now download the browser, which is currently free (with a Windows version in beta).

Research shows that a decluttered workspace—whether digital or physical—can be beneficial for your productivity and your sense of wellbeing. Decluttering is great, but once you’ve tackled that, you know what else is good for you? Working somewhere clean—really clean. Disinfecting, sanitizing, and cleaning up dust and…

Waffle makers and SPAM are a powerful duo. The ridged plates press into the processed meat, creating crispy browned peaks and valleys that grab onto sauce and don’t let go. I’ve been waffling naked, unadorned SPAM for years, but we’re leveling up with waffled SPAM pops (now with actual waffle batter).

So you’re going on a road trip with family you may or may not normally spend a lot of time with, all of you with different musical tastes and/or takes on politics. And no one wants to spend 36 hours playing the license-plate game or singing rounds of “99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall.” Instead, press play on these…

For the most part, people wear eyeglasses to improve their vision. They go through the whole “which is better, A or B?” routine with their optometrist to find the right prescription; pick out frames; end up being talked into multiple special coatings ... and then clean their smudged lenses with the bottom of their…

Back-to-school time is fast approaching, which means the struggle to get out the door (on time) is, once again, also upon us.

Welcome to “How I Became,” a new Lifehacker series where I ask real people about how they really got their jobs.

Twitter has had a hell of a year. Elon Musk took over, fired a ton of people, destroyed the validity and integrity of Twitter verification, considered selling your location data and phone number, publicized everyone’s private Circles, allowed hate speech and misinformation to grow and fester, and blocked DMs by…

A smart display, like Google’s Pixel Tablet or Amazon’s Echo Show, can boost your productivity, keep you updated on news and weather, and connect you to your smart home.

Inflation has always been a real killjoy, but now it may have a side effect of botulism. On canning boards (yes, that’s a real thing) across the country, posts have noted that the white wine and apple cider vinegar you usually buy has been ratcheted down from a 5% concentration to 4%. That might not seem dire, but let…

When it comes to outdoor furniture, plastic may not be the most glamorous option, but in most cases, it’s one of easiest materials to maintain. Wood can rot, splinter, and become weatherworn; cast iron can rust, and upholstery—even the kind designed to live outdoors—requires more care.

Getting outside is probably one of the biggest perks of summertime, and as an extra perk, whether you’re camping at a park or in your own backyard, having good sex in the great outdoors is possible—if you come prepared.
