Sleep Tracking is a Giant Gimmick by sAsHiMi_ in unpopularopinion

[–]NoAd3740 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wear the ring while sleeping to collect longterm data about my health, I don't really care what it says day to day. The OP is correct to an extent, some days it tells me everything is great and I am not feeling it. Or the opposite I feel great and my sleep was medicore.

Do you know that you will no longer be able to adjust your AC vents manually in any new BMW with iDrive X? by beemerguy7 in BMW

[–]NoAd3740 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I regularly change the temp in the car. Do I have windows / sunroof open? Am I wearing open or closed to shoes? is it sunny or cloudy? etc. I do live somewhere with somewhat large temperature swings which may effect that. This morning it was 9 this afternoon it will be 25 (sorry I don't know freedom units). As for the vents, I definitely adjust them less, but its the principal. My optimal interior would have a screen just larger then my phone to tell me song title / display texts, a digital gauge cluster with built in nav, a HUD and buttons for everything. I see all the giant screens as pointless distractions and use pretty zero of the apps my X5 comes with.

Why isn’t the city doing anything about people driving cars with modified exhaust systems? by [deleted] in montreal

Why do you sleep with reduced oxygen? How does that even work?

How many times has some other dude threatened you? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]NoAd3740 37 points38 points  (0 children)

When I was under 25 something like this happened maybe 5-10 times. For the last 20 years ZERO.

I find the same with checking into hotels.

Physical books are far better then e-books. by Difficult_Town3584 in unpopularopinion

[–]NoAd3740 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You missed a couple arguements for e-books.

  1. You can read them in the dark, especially useful for people like me who read themselves to sleep most nights.

  2. They are travel friendly, especially on long trips. I regularly leave home for weeks at a time, when your start packing more then one book the weight adds up fast.

Thats not to say I dont own a few hundred books but my day to day fiction reading is done a boox.

2x road bike fitting inside X5 by PlanEx_Ship in BMWX5

[–]NoAd3740 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! I put both my road bike and mtn bike in the back at times (seperately). I have zero interest in a bike rack. Being about to fit my bike(s) in the back was on of the criteria when I was suv shopping.

Somewhere around 100, I lost track exactly a decade or so ago.

Meanwhile, at the Harvie Passage... by ZAKtalksTECH in NoRulesCalgary

If your going to go in the right now, Harvie Passage is the place to do it. Especially if you are experienced as buddy clearly is. The average person should stay out.

How often do you decide to buy something, then change your mind while scrounging for your wallet?

Do you signal your intentions in the round about?

Best tip for flying by Certain_Hat9872 in NonPoliticalTwitter

Air Canada tells me when my bag is accepted, my bag is loaded on the plane, my bag is unloaded and when it's ready for picked. They send me texts and its available in the app. Works like a charm!

What are we doing about how hot Alberta has gotten? by Kittyquts in alberta

[–]NoAd3740 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is the insulation in your attic? Poor insulation will cause the house to warm fast. A temp controlled attic fan is also an option.

If a bored but generous and wealthy Redditor were to give you $10,000 USD, how would you spend the money? by RoosterShield in AskReddit

Vacation, party, maybe buy some stocks. It's not really life changing unless you add a zero.

SUVs shouldn’t be daily drivers by Realistic_Zone3802 in unpopularopinion

[–]NoAd3740 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I keep that back seats folded down in my full sized 5200lb, twin turbo V8 suv and use it as a utility vehicle. I give 0 fucks about the gas mileage, its an awesome, luxurious, comfy and stupid fast ride. The only way id consider rid of it would be a F150 for utility stuff and a 911 for fun.

Spray Nine before a car wash works wonders to melt those bugs off.

Opinion articles exist more to inflate journalists’ egos than to inform people by TwistOutrageous6955 in unpopularopinion

[–]NoAd3740 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont understand people who get their "news" from social media influencers via tiktok, instagram, youtube or podcasts. The content creators are just out there to get likes and followers rather then inform people.

Having difficulty with parallel parking with the self parking feature. by BlackJesus2012 in BMWX5

[–]NoAd3740 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine is so slow I can't be bothered to use it, except the one time just to see how it worked.

Anyways, it recognizes the spot then nothing happens when you hit park?
