Today I learned that I don't understand technology!! Trying to find a Bluetooth range extender to sit between a laptop and wireless headphones.. Read loads and loads of product reviews, getting all confused with 'transmittors' and 'receivers'...

TIL

What the spiral on a bar spoon is for.

Apparently you pour a carbonated drink on the spiral and it flows down like a slide down to the drink to prevent fizzing
