Hey team, I have a 75-year-old house and lots of the floorboards on the main floor are creaky. I can feel a few of them travel when I walk on them. I've seen these kits with snap-off screws that secure the board to the joist and then snap off just below the surface. Do they work? Is there a better solution?

The basement ceiling is unfinished, and I've read about shimming the loose boards from below. From the basement I see diagonal boards and then subfloor on top of that, so I'm not sure how I would shim anything. Thanks for any help you can offer!

 

I'm looking for sunglasses that don't press on my temples or the side of my head. I don't have a large or wide head, but my head and scalp are so sensitive that most headphones and sunglasses give me nauseating headaches. Currently I have a pair of vintage Italian sunglasses that are lightweight and fairly wide, and otherwise some Milwaukee safety glasses with flexible rubber arms - comfortable, but not at all my aesthetic.

Any brands you can recommend? Or should I just look for other sunglasses for people with wide faces?

 

I've been thinking about making the switch for a year or two. I installed Graphene on an old phone to get a feel for it, and the only drawback I noticed was that it doesn't support Firefox. Is there anything else I should consider before switching? You can be honest - I'm mostly sold and just want to know what to expect.
