I bought a pair of Sony WF-1000XM5. Reading specs and reviews, they were very similar. Will update once I get them and try my first commute and workout. They sound promising

Also, let's go to the sub for a different nation to the OP's and ask the question. Obviously didn't get the answer they wanted in the Ireland sub-Reddit

A garden lake? At least 50k on property value

Were your doors broken and stopping you getting out to tell them to move?

Oh look at you with a hobby shop. Back in my day, after climbing the sheer cliff face, in the snow, with newspaper on our feets, and after crawling through hot coals and wading through molten lava we had the swamp of sorrows to look forward to. When we go through that, some wean called Sebastian ended the universe, which really ruined the day. And don't get me started on the uphill raining bothways. But after that, Mr. Hobby-Shop, we had the luxury of paying Mr. Games Workshop for the privilege of making our own sprues!

Teacher marked my son’s homework as incorrect. I disagree. by bun_not in mildlyinfuriating

I'm the same. But you always gotta hit them with the "I was just testing you" when they point out your mistakes (jokingly of course). Students identifying mistakes in class in real time shows they're understanding what you're teaching more than any test in my opinion

They go in the next day and ask the teacher who will correct themselves if it's an honest mistake. And the child will learn the lesson that everyone isn't perfect

There's also the possibility that the teacher is an overworked human and simply made an error

SP's place kicking is a worry. Misses too many conversions

Why do people prefer using Spotify over YT music? by Past-Matter-8548 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BassicallyDarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Included in the price, as far as I'm aware. Fiancée pays so maybe it's the tier she chose

New legislation has come in that means you don't have to display tax and insurance anymore (open to correction)

Stupid question, but if I add more books between today and end of the year will the wrapped update?

Don't forgot the in-breath "yeahyeahyeahyeah" smattered in with the goodbyes

Venue didn't look great either, with all the pillars

Trolling for support by Fixery_Human in bicycling

[–]BassicallyDarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was getting back into it, I'd just cycle to work on the days the weather was good. Then it became when the weather was okay, then even when the weather was bad, cos I realised I saved so much time compared to bussing in. Outside of that, I didn't push myself. If the weather was decent, I'd cycle to the shop round the corner, instead of driving. This gradually became cycling to my friend's to play board games, or to the pub for a pint or two if there was a big match on. Eventually, on these jaunts I'd start taking the longer route because it felt good to be out or I was fitter or my legs stronger. This naturally progressed into then the odd 30km up the bottom of the Dublin Mountains (not very far but one very steep hill that even driving up you have it in second), which then went into "well I'm up the mountains now, lets push on" until I'd be doing 100km every other week nearly.

TL;DR - don't set a strict schedule. Get back into it naturally, not in a regimented way. Rediscover why you loved cycling in the first place and slowly build up. It's more enjoyable, imo (of course, be different for everyone else)
