I’m in healthcare, and often work with children. It doesn’t matter if they do or don’t understand something, they don’t have the emotional regulation to continue with something uncomfortable.

I don’t blame parents wanting to increase the sleepiness of a child prior to something like a long plane trip.

8+ is the age I see the majority of children being able to grin and bear it, and to be reasoned with.

Suspect Sonarr users didn’t have any issues, as it wouldn’t have gone looking for an episode 9.

Ahaha that’s real cool. I had ear moulds taken professionally and what you did is pretty dang close. Nice work!

When you say you printed IEMs and ear protection, are you able to elaborate?

In my case I’ve only just gotten into FDM, and I’m having a lot more fun with it than my resin printer, but I might have made enough things for the resin printer that might make that a lot less of a chore.

So far, the FDM has been handy with quite a few functional prints around the house (certainly not yet enough that I can say it’s cheaper than just buying the items outright, but we’re getting close!), and that’s been an enjoyable process.

Maybe from the other side?

Keep the Harley.

This is a common discussion for folks who have decided on a Honda Rebel, but can’t decide 300, 500, or 1100. 300 is no or very low highway riding, it can do it but it’s not enjoyable. 500 is for some highway riding, still a bit light and you can feel windswept, but good economy. 1100 much more planted and powerful and very capable of long trips, but a lot more expensive.

Any particular reason you want to change? If it’s just to ride a different style of bike, is it in your finances to get a used mt03 to putt around in, then sell once you’ve had your fun?

This was definitely on our short list. Ended up going for an adv as the e-clutch models aren’t in Australia yet.

Persona 5. I have p4 tracks also.

Depends on the language and the content itself. I’m hunting one where all the torrents are from 2012, so… Gave up, and buying the actual media. 😂

If you use the word fortnight, it’s likely you aren’t from North America.

Maybe the article was made up with an LLM?

Yes, in more recent times I’ve seen comments about the Tailwind. Unfortunately it’s not sold in Australia so I’d have to import it. It does rate really well, so you chose wisely!

Yeah sometimes simple is best. Certainly a lot of folks have suggested this. I tend to wear different jackets as the seasons vary wildly here, so not quite as easy an option for me.

Oh my regular door responds to remotes, the meross is just there to add internet capability. I’m one of those who keeps worrying they haven’t closed the garage door and is already so far away it’s a bit awkward to turn around.

I also don’t want a remote attached to my bike that’s easily recognisable as one, in case the bike is ever stolen. This is why my interest was in modules like the FlashToPass, as it’s not easily recognisable as being a garage remote.

Yeah I really should set up Home Assistant, especially as I have some other devices that would greatly benefit from it.

This will do me for now… until I want to really screw with more of my “smart” devices.

There’s a lot of gay men who don’t even consider that these laws will apply to them. It doesn’t help that a lot of people will say “oh those laws only apply to locals, they won’t enforce them on international people”.

That’s like asking why we can’t just eliminate gonorrhea… people keep inoculating each other with the bad shit.

I do tell my expecting parents (who happen to have bad teeth) that they should not test the food in their mouth and use the same spoon with their new child, as they will be passing on their bacteria to the kid. I do also imply they shouldn’t share things like drinks.

Whether or not they listen to me isn’t my problem…

A chick got pulled for Subway: https://www.smh.com.au/traveller/inspiration/forgotten-subway-sandwich-costs-australian-traveller-jessical-lee-2664-on-arrival-home-20220721-h2576l.html

So it’s not surprising to me for being hauled up over a lunch… I’m likely biased as Australia and NZ have long been very strict about biosecurity.

What does seem strange to me is that in Australia, if I bring in something they don’t like, they turf it and let me through?? No fine or anything. Admittedly I go through the “Declare” line, and am open about what I’m unsure about.

People downvoting don’t realise this has happenned in some countries: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninoy_Aquino_International_Airport_bullet_planting_scandal#:~:text=The Ninoy Aquino International Airport,Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA)

Don’t use one as I’m still slowly buying what I need, and my bike takes pannier racks. 😂

You might want to see if anyone sells a ring lock solution for yours, as at least with my bike the options will elevate the bag from the tank.
