I am once again posting here asking, why can’t I have a trust fund but with zero rich family baggage
Aw sh*t. I am usually not a fan of the nesting rings as wedding bands but I wish I had seen this before I ordered mine lol
85 yards of concrete, the gravel and prep work underneath, and a crew to finish it. I also need a trust fund.
I played myself. Now I want a new kettle. The one I found for Beeboop.
EepOops.

My friends are talking about mechanical keyboards and this came up as a reccomendation-- the separated keyboard that looks so goofy yet so… ergonomic. The little thumb switches on each side make it look like a little star trek gadget, and I’ve never had a proper mechanical keyboard before but… it’s so shiny…
I am a staunch mechanical keyboard advocate and I know people who love those split ones but: if you can, don’t get one before you can try it out! Depending on your hand size and shape they can be very very good or very very bad. Not much middle ground!
I’m really glad you didn’t know when I was kettle shopping. Because mine is just fine and makes me hot water fast. But also was the cheapest one that wasn’t pure plastic
I talk a big game but this is the kettle toaster combo we bought recently:
Looks same as mine but someone stamped Amazon basics on mine
Rude.
My new house has lots of carpet. So I think I want two robot vacuum cleaners. Maybe I should ask on the personal shopper thread which kind are the best.
What sort of price range are you thinking of? I love my deebot, but it’s just a random path one, straight lines until it bounces off something.
I don’t have a particular price range in mind. I just want ones that work without much hassle.
You may want to go straight to Roomba. They are $$$ and they are magic. I have the pet series one, and it’s been going strong for… 8-12 years now? Also it maps out the room and takes itself back to its docking station to charge when it needs it.
I also have a Roomba sweeper/mopper that’s much older (the original Roomba), and it’s nifty, but the vacuum beats it hands down.
But do get advice from someone with carpet first - we’re all hard floors here. Oh, and be aware, you have to get your home set up for any of the robots, and there’s often an introductory period where you spend a lot of time hunting under couches for a stuck robot and unwinding strings from its guts.
Caveat if you do a Roomba and have black carpet/carpet with black squares…the sensors sometimes detect the black section as a stair and then cry that they’re stuck on a cliff, and the last time I checked (which was admittedly 2-3 years ago) the problem hadn’t been fixed. Just for fun, all of my area rugs have black squares so my roomba lives with foil over its sensors and I just block off the actual staircase when I’m vacuuming (I really do like the thing, it’s just an annoyance).
You checked for dead geckos?
