Bookmarked for when I have the new one, those are dang cheap--I only like 2/3 colors on all the sets, so I might cannibalize the 3rd one for the mounting parts and attempt to make a leather wristband as a fun project.

When I've lent a friend money, and it isn't a small amount (>$500 at this stage of my life), I draft a GA-compliant promissory note with enforcement terms we both agree on. Their willingness to sign it pretty much means they're the type of person that would pay me back in the first place. If...

*Googles* Ah, I see, they're significantly easier to swap. You can change the HR's too as far as I know, it just requires extra steps/hassle with the 4 screws and such. That's nice, I suppose, though I wouldn't expect to be changing bands very often.

My Fitbit HR's band grew air bubbles over the past 2 days, so I contacted their support to see if they could send me a replacement band, since they're $12-20 on Amazon and the device has a 1-year warranty (it's only been 6 months). Instead they offered to send me a new watch entirely, and that...

Explain that your credit card isn't on a zero interest rate and that it's hurting you financially, and could she please pay you back ASAP? Every time I've owed money to a friend and not paid back it's because I plain forgot to. When (finally) brought up, they get a profuse apology, full...

I had noticed the forum seemed slower to load threads lately, thought it was just hiccups but... In case it helps: I'm in GA with a 120mbps-ish down connection. From doing a few sample hard refreshes, they all look roughly like this: ... Where the green bar is the first request (i.e. the html...

The exceedingly shitty/stressful situation I'm in should be over in 3-5 weeks. I've survived 3-4 months of it, so it's great to see the light at the end. This goes in this tread because I hate not being able to discuss the details yet, because I need it to be over already, and because I only get...

Finished straining my first batch of cold-brew coffee. Tastes about as good as store-bought, so I guess this is what I'm doing from now on. I'm back to having caffeine, though only 1 cup in the morning (and my pre-workout pill). I'm also adding an eyeballed 0.2-0.5g of L-Theanine into it, which...

If you get the very basics of protection (usually head, hand/wrist, crotch, elbows/knees) so as to not hurt yourself, pell practice can be an effective way to let off steam that doesn't involve anyone else (i.e. no danger of going overboard). You can find videos online on pell routines, which...

Spreading diatomaceous earth (food grade) near entry/exit areas has been a decently effective (and cheap) method for my house, along with delayed-action ant poison (the type in pet-safe enclosures), and regular spraying of the house's foundation/perimeter with one of those homeguard solutions...

Bloomberg: Basque Terror Group ETA Dissolves Seven Years After Cease-Fire Haven't really found any good English sources, but the headline is sort of self-explanatory. Hopefully this helps lead to better justice for the victims on all sides.

I think at some point @GasBandit changed the Alert tab's blue colors to be a bit more contrasting between read and unread alerts. It's back to being almost the same, on the default theme at least (I've never tried the others).

I think the "Love it!!" image may not be the right one yet, and you forgot to give us access to Heresy :whistling:

General note: if you feel like ranting at the void of the Internet, and don't feel comfortable doing it in our threads for whatever reason, Cave Canum is a convenient hole.

Posted on Facebook, thought it might make a good thread here. CBS News: Oklahoma woman receives reduced sentence after getting sterilized I wonder what other examples of elective medical procedures in exchange for reduced sentencing there are, other than the below. I guess there's the...

Mind Read added so much to the Golden Sun games. On the second one you start with it, it's wonderful.

Darling in the FranXX Take Evangelion's base plot, remove what little subtelty it has, and filter out 90% of the angst. Sprinkle Tengen Toppa fan service and gratuitous gattai. Serve immediately, paired with this season's besto waifu. Into the Abyss Very interesting worldbuilding, left me...

Yep. Another reason food journaling is important. I almost went to sleep at 950 yesterday (after vigorous evening exercise), had to force some food in me. Not that fasting is generally bad, but if you're shooting for a controlled descent (and trying to minimize muscle loss)...

It's a good fish out of water story with a lot of immigrant-related humor. I also find a lot of the characters ridiculous in that GTA-series larger-than-life way that makes them very fun to interact with.
