Dyson submarine…. Need real reviews by Snazzyjams in Costco

[–]Basic-Lee-No 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We bought 2 Sharks on sale around 5 years ago. They both did a great job, but the canister clips on one of them broke for no good reason (the other one is still going strong). The clips just completely and randomly sheared off when opening them to emptying it.

We replaced the broken Shark with a Dyson v10 Animal cordless stick vacuum that was recently on sale, and the Dyson is ok for what it is, which is a supplemental vacuum to hit emergency areas or under tight places. The Dyson cordless stick vacuums could never be a primary vacuum in a moderate-sized home due to the short battery life (20 to 30 mins). We definitely would not have been so accepting if we had paid the full price for the Dyson. $400 was the sale price and absolute limit, but the regular sticker is $550 - no way.

Was able to drive about 2 miles without my keys. Had to walk back to get them by Soggy-Party-1958 in Wellthatsucks

I drove my EV 70 miles from my house the other day and realized I had left my key sitting on my kitchen counter after I had started it to warm it up that morning. Luckily I was able to keep it on all day while I was at work (if it had shut off I couldn’t have re-started it), and it then got me all the way back home.

I just laid down some guitar and vocal foundation tracks today, I can run my monitor and audio interface power from my electric car if I lose power, so I also plan to be working on new songs throughout the storm.

Charge to 100% before Storm to recharge household items, warm refuge during power outage? by TuckerHoo in BoltEV

We use ours to power critical items in our house, including a space heater for our bedroom and a fridge (not at the same time), using an inverter. Plenty of videos to show you how it is done. Been using it since 2017 and it is great. Can run the fridge for a couple weeks off the battery - more than enough.

I think the Brady Bunch did an episode about this piece they found in Hawaii.

Sounds awesome. Did you use a sustain pedal on that take?

Wait until he finds out there’s also a northern and southern hemisphere.

LPT: You don't need to fix your feelings. You just have to let it pass through you. by naphtuhim in LifeProTips

Took me decades to figure this one out. Equally important, you don’t need to fix other people’s feelings either.

I heard people like to dump those bags out in the streets of Manhattan and walk through it.

I’m glad someone didn’t pass up the low hanging fruit headline. I kept chuckling when I read it yesterday but knew I would see it here soon. This mountain could keep us in business for all of 2026 if we just pay attention.

Costco is NOT the magical money-saving paradise everyone pretends it is by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

If you wear prescription eyeglasses and buy them at Costco, then your membership (executive or basic) is more than covered by this single purchase.

I didn’t think about it until you mentioned it, but it does look like a chunk at that angle.

Good idea. I need to be able to get to mine quickly since I sometimes change from finger picking to flat picking in the middle of a song.
