How To Close A Pocket Knife?
Depends on the type the pocket knife you own. If it's a shutting knife with a liner or frame lock like mine, you should be able to find a part at the top of the handle, just below the blade, that moves when the blade is out. Usually, it's saw-toothed so you can grip it better. That's the liner or frRead more
Depends on the type the pocket knife you own. If it’s a shutting knife with a liner or frame lock like mine, you should be able to find a part at the top of the handle, just below the blade, that moves when the blade is out.
Usually, it’s saw-toothed so you can grip it better. That’s the liner or frame lock. Liner and frame locks work the same – the only difference is if it’s a liner, it has a separate lining that acts as the lock, while if it’s a frame, the frame itself is the lock.
To close both liner and frame locks, just find that saw-toothed portion that moves and push it out of the way of the blade and fold the blade simultaneously. Easy as that.
Here’s a video so you can understand it better.
How Many Calories Are In Salt?
Zero! You won't get any calories even in a cup of salt because our bodies can fully dissolve the salt. Basically, the amount of energy (calorie) it takes to process salt is more than the energy (calorie) that's released by breaking salt (sodium and chloride) apart. You can even say negative caloriesRead more

You can even say negative calories, lol.
Salt can’t increase your weight directly, but it can make food tastier so you eat more or can make your body retain more water so you have more water weight.

Can cats have whipped cream? Yes. Is it good for them? No.
Although not all, most cats actually become lactose intolerant between weaning and 6 months of age, so basically, it’s best to just assume that all adults cats are lactose intolerant.
That said, whipped cream is made of dairy plus, it has lots of sugar. A couple of licks here and there shouldn’t hurt, but some people give them as treats, and that’s what’s bad. It can give cats the problems that come from lactose intolerance like abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, excessive gas, and more. The sugar in the whipped cream can also give them high blood sugar that can lead to or worsen diabetes.
So with your situation where your cat just had a lick, your cat should be fine. Just don’t let it lick whipped cream regularly. Do watch out do for some yowling or other signs you cat may be uncomfortable and contact your vet.

Interesting question! haha Turns out, toothpaste does have calories - about 1 calorie per 100 grams. You're right. It has calories because it is sweet.

I mean, you won’t really get the calories if you don’t swallow the toothpaste (you shouldn’t anyway), and you’re also burning 5.7 calories when you brush your teeth for at least two minutes, so you’re good. Toothpaste won’t make you fat lmao

What Is It Called When A Word Is Spelled The Same Backwards?
Words that are the same forwards and backward are called palindromes.

Btw, the opposite of a palindrome is a semordnilap, a word that is still a word when reversed, but the meaning changes.
Examples:
Stressed <=> Desserts
Depots <=> Stoped
Diaper <=> Repaid
Devil <=> Lived
Bonus: When two semordnilaps are joined, they will always result in a palindromic phrase. For instance “stressed desserts” or “live evil.”
Interesting, right? Although I find it ironic that the word “palindrome” is not a palindrome lol

What’s The Difference Between UPS And USPS?
Not so much of "accepting specific things to deliver" - it's more of not accepting specific things. They can deliver almost anything, except a few things (They listed them here and here, so check those) They can almost be used interchangeably, but knowing their difference can save you a lot of timeRead more

USPS is designed to ship smaller packages and mail quickly and cost-effectively. UPS is intended for shipping larger parcels worldwide.
UPS, or United Parcel Service, is a publicly traded company, while USPS, or The United States Postal Service aka Post Office, is not a company, it’s an independent agency of the U.S. Federal government.
When shipping smaller packages, UPS is often more expensive than USPS. But, when shipping large and heavy packager, UPS would be a better choice – again, cause that’s what their main services are. So, determine the package you’re sending and chose from there.
Good luck with your task. You can do it!
