This Video Shows You the Difference Between a T-Bone and a Porterhouse

If you've always thought that a T-Bone steak and a Porterhouse steak were the same thing, you'd be mistaken. They're both from the same cut and they both have the characteristic t-shaped bone in the center, but this video from the folks at America's Test Kitchen explains why one costs so much more than the other.

Essentially, the real differentiator between the two is the size of the tenderloin section—or the smaller piece of meat on the short side of the bone (as opposed to the strip, which is the longer section on the other side). Because a T-Bone is allowed to have a smaller tenderloin section than a Porterhouse, that would mean that all Porterhouse steaks are T-Bones, but not all T-Bones are porterhouses. Either way, if you're ever at the butcher counter and see that the Porterhouse is much more pricey than the T-Bone (Also, if the butcher can't explain why, it's time to find a new butcher), now you'll know why, and you can opt to splurge or save accordingly.

The Difference Between Bits and Bytes, and Why It Matters

Ever sign up for internet that claimed 20 Mb per second, only to find that your files download at 2.5 MB per second? They aren't lying to you. Look closely and you'll see that those two figures use different units: megabits (Mb) and megabytes (MB). Here's what that means.

Usually, we refer to file sizes and file transfer speeds in megabytes. Every once in a while, though—like when you're shopping for internet speeds or testing your speed on speedtest.net—you'll see it noted in megabits per second instead. One byte is made up of 8 bits, which means that you need to pay extra close attention to which unit you're using (which is especially confusing, since megabits is abbreviated "Mb" and megabytes is abbreviated "MB").

The folks at Techquickie have a great video that explains it as fast as possible, so watch the above video if you're confused (or send it to a friend if they keep asking you why they aren't getting 20 megabyte per second download speeds). They also say you can divide your megabit figure by 10 to get a very rough (read: innacurate) estimate of the measurement in megabytes, but you could always divide by 8 (though that may require a calculator, or plugging it into Google) if you want to know the exact equivalent. Check out the video above to see more.
