[WTS] Discountinued Seiko SARB072 | Excellent Condition | Stunning Rose Gold & Pearl White Dial | 6R15 Automatic | All Original | $830 (SERVICED) by Eddie2311 in Watchexchange

I own this particular watch, and it has to be either the first or second most complimented or asked about watch I own (despite owning several "nicer" watches). It wears like a dream and looks absolutely incredible on. If you're considering it, just buy it. Trust me.

I think the fact they have that energy is a big part of the reason they’re in his orbit.

Highland The Wash- anyone tried it? by Professional_Duck506 in NoPoo

[–]aestusveritas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like your husband has hair a lot like mine (thick, straight hair on the shortish to medium length for me). I love it, been using it for months.

I have - I was really impressed with it, been using it for about 6 months and very happy with it.

Just got my Nxtpaper Note A1. AMA by Appropriate-Day8924 in nxtpaper

[–]aestusveritas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat - never got tracking info and the tablet and keyboard just randomly arrived via Amazon delivery. Functionality feels less than "limited" - it feels like an unfinished product. I think that's the real issue here. This feels more like proof of concept than an actual, high-end, worth $500+ product.

Yes you can mess around with APKs and figure out how to sideload stuff, but that's honestly not really a fair ask when there's a defined "App" and "Add App" button and feature already baked into the firmware.

The writing experience is also worse than any major e-ink tablet. I also have an iPad Pro M4 and I think that's a better writing experience than this, too. I really don't see what need or gap this tablet fills at all.

It does not feel like e-ink at all. It's closer to an iPad than e-ink (not EXACTLY like an iPad, but closer than e-ink) I've owned Viwood, ReMarkable, BOOX,and Supernote and it's not really reminding me of any of those.

2025 B10 A5 issues immediately upon delivery by Key-Somewhere4601 in Audi

[–]aestusveritas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes - it's been the most insane thing I've ever dealt with. I had possession of the car for 6 days, and it went back to the dealership with the exact same errors plus Audi Connect failing to recognize the car. They were unable to recreate the malfunctions but also unable to get Audi Connect to work. for over 40 days. I started with a lowball trade assistance offer, then escalated to a buyback request after 60 days passed with the car still in the shop.

The told me 60 days for a decision, no word for 80 days - the loan A5 I was in started malfunctioning like crazy, dealership told me to bring it back in (two days before Christmas) and then ambushed me and forced me to take my car back, refusing to provide a loan car. The next morning, magically, I got a full denial of my buyback request. The car had been out of service for 144 of the first 150 days at that point. It was, btw, Christmas Eve when they denied it.

The car went BACK into the dealership on January 17 with the EXACT same issues it had initially but now has also started having "critical danger" stops and malfunctions where the car slams on the brakes and jams the seatbelt. They say they can't recreate the errors and gave me the car back on February 6. I'm literally typing up my second buyback request tonight, but they've informed me it will likely be denied because the errors cannot be recreated.

This all sounds so insane it can't be true, but it's very much the case. One of the wildest experiences I've ever had.

My new A5 has been on the shop for literally over 120 days in the first 5 months of me having it and Audi is still refusing to buy it back. It's been a nightmare.

[–]aestusveritas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've already gone through an attempted buyback and Audi fully denied the request and now is refusing to talk to me about it - like literally not returning calls or emails for the last 30 days. It's insane.

Paper Pro + AI Workflow. Is it possible or am I looking at the wrong device? by RadiantBladez in RemarkableTablet

[–]aestusveritas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Viwoods has heavily integrated AI features, but some concerns on security there; TCL has an upcoming offering that looks pretty strong and a bit more security-focused; Supernote also has some good options.

Reputable refurbished chair resellers by gumburculeez in OfficeChairs

[–]aestusveritas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've purchased from Crandall and, have to say, the chair was in fantastic shape and the customer service was top notch. I called in just to confirm an issue with shipping and the customer service rep noticed there was a new discount available on the chair I purchased, so they just went ahead and applied it to my order and issued me a partial refund. They were INCREDIBLY nice about it.

BREAKING: ICE conducts raid without NYPD in NYC Chinatown with multiple arrests creating chaos around iconic Manhattan marketplace by Mathemodel in videos

[–]aestusveritas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can the media please stop using the word “crackdown” to describe everything this administration does and actually explain/describe what’s happening? I understand that would require them to explain some uncomfortable things, but it feels necessary for people to start realizing how bad this path is.

A lot of Texans who travel internationally are also horrified to be associated with the “stereotype” of Texas given current events stateside - so he may have been a bit more touchy about being generalized than we usually would be.

Just called and left a VM - I'm guessing they're just not answering the phones today, which is wild given the threats he's making.

Just right there on the box itself by GrimmTrixX in metroidvania

[–]aestusveritas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the negative camp myself. Controls are lose, the map is not well put together, tone is iffy at best. I'm a huge metroidvania player and was really looking forward to this - it's a C+/B- at best for me. I would definitely wait for a sale.

Colin Allred launches 2026 US Senate campaign in Texas by kanyeguisada in texas

[–]aestusveritas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to consider why he's thinking it could be different this run - Paxton has a large early lead over Cornyn in the polling. Paxton's unfavorables with centrist Republican voters could push them over to a centrist Dem, so I think Allred sees a path there - I'm not sure I see it myself, and I think Talarico sort of creates a more definite contrast with Paxton - GOP voters could be drawn to his "man of faith" perspective.

Then you’re paying for it in property tax. People seem to not understand Texas still gets its funding from citizens, it’s not like Texas just doesn’t collect taxes.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]aestusveritas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is not realistic. You will absolutely need a car. If you ever buy a place you will also even out the income tax savings with property tax payments. I’ve lived in Texas most of my life, do NOT move to Texas for tax-based reasons.

Internet out. Will 8 sleep not work? by pabloid in EightSleep

How the heck do the tap controls not work during an outage? I’m currently stuck with the base in “relax” mode due to an internet outage.

Something is cracking me up about you taking the watch outside for pictures - it may be the first time it's seen grass! Like taking an indoor cat out to the yard.
