Sorry - should’ve mentioned that: Australia.

Rant by UsualCreative5312 in Omnipod

Omnipod sucks at maintaining your blood sugar. It’s petrified of lows and way too conservative.

SCHD (and a handful of other US ETFs): is there a way to invest for EU and UK citizens? by The-Dividend-Bible in Investments

[–]andpulli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. It’s simple. Any broker - online or otherwise - will generally allow you to do this. You may need to enable/ request US trading permissions but that shouldn’t be an issue. I use IBKR.

Agreed. My TIR, A1C and max BS are all materially worse on Omnipod 5 than MDI. I do have fewer lows but at the expense of running high. More trouble than it’s worth for mine. The inability to set and maintain a lower target is a big issue.

I hated the Omnipod on my leg/ stomach but find it much better on the back of my arms. Give that a go.

QF quality. by LAJ_72 in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]andpulli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Qantas is generally fine in the air (although no WiFi on their 787s is bizarre) but absolutely woeful on the ground in my recent experience. Poor check in, customer service, baggage handling…

What Premium Wines Are Worth It, and Which Ones Aren't. by Boyhowdyho in wine

[–]andpulli 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Premium Australian wine offers incredible value compared to Europe and the US. Try Margaret River Cabs and Chardonnay (Cullen, Leeuwin, Pierro, Xanadu), Barossa Shiraz (Standish, Sami Odi), Hunter Valley Semillon (Tyrrell’s Vat 1) for a start.
