Владимир vs Алеша - Lifehacking - 1
Лайфха́к (от лайфхакинг, англ. life hacking) — на сленге означает «хитрости жизни», «народную мудрость» или полезный совет, помогающий решать бытовые проблемы, экономя тем самым время. Это набор методик и приёмов «взлома» окружающей жизни для упрощения процесса достижения поставленных целей при помощи разных полезных советов и хитрых трюков. Обычно лайфхакер не создаёт новые методики, а овладевает существующими.
Предложить свой лайфхак в любой форме - письменного описания, звукового файла или видео презентации - задать другой стороне до 5 вопросов по содержанию лайфхака.

If you have calcium scale in your electric kettle but you don't have any special food scale remover, you still can remove scale from your kettle with the help of… common ready available coca-cola. To remove scale from your kettle just pour a glass of coca-cola into the kettle and boil it for 5 minutes. This is the lifehack from me both simple and healthy.
A Soviet lifehack.
To refresh stale bread, M. Ganulin (Moscow) suggests to use a bent steel wire stand with compartments and an electric stove. You should lay the slices of bread in the stand, put on a burner, cover with a shallow saucepan and turn on the stove. A few minutes later, the bread will be restored to its former softness and aroma.
In the description there are an electric stove and a burner - why are there two heating devices?
A burner is a part of an electric stove. Every stove usually has several burners.
Now I see.
But won't Coca-Cola spoil my kettle?
It will not.
But won't Coca-Cola leave its aftertaste in the water?
Wash your kettle to remove aftertaste.
But how often should I torture my kitty-kettle with Coca-Cola?
It depends.
Can one use your lifehack on a walking tour?
Sure, if you have a portable gas cooker.
我可以用它茶炊？
Sorry, I mean, can I use it for a samovar?
Coca-cola affects calcium no matter where it is.
