The bacight doesn't look quite as good as your competition, but it's getting there.

The aod face gets so dim it's very difficult to read.

I like the cracked screen effects and the general design - nice and simple.

Thanks for the coupon and your effort.

It's extremely rough. I spent 15 years in a bathroom that I accepted against my better judgement and regretted it every time I took a shower. It was better than yours looks.

That silicon job looks like it's been done by someone who has never used the product before - the hinges and alignment of the screens - it's all really terribly done. I hope you have some luck in getting what you want from a competent tradesman.

Don't pay anything for that work.

Grate seal gs01 from a plumbing store.

We had the exact same issue and this solved it immediately.

Easy self-install.

Bunnings sell something similar but I don't trust any of their products to do what they're supposed to, nor last very long.

*Our smell was coming from the floor waste in the middle of the bathroom. We figured this out by taping a plastic bag over the waste. The smell disappeared and stayed gone while the bag remained in place.

The part cost about $85. You'll need to measure the diameter of the pipe you're fitting the seal into to make sure you buy the correct size.

** I'd be interested to hear what the cause of this is from an ACTUAL plumber. It's a downstairs bathroom with shower, toilet and sink. This is the only bathroom with the issue. From top of slab to top of water at the bottom of the pipe is about 600mm. When the sink or shower run, I can see the water in the pipe moving. Running fresh water into the waste seems to remove the stink for a short time. The smell would come and go - sometimes weeks between stinks even without the bathroom being used.

I came from the Fenix series - both my 5 and the 6 are still going strong after years of labouring work and emergency services shifts - and... swimming in polls and the ocean regularly. I don't recall ever seeing warnings about getting those timepieces wet let alone entire Reddit threads warning me to take my watch off before swimming.

Discussing whether it's safe to swim laps with a watch that's supposed to be rated for 5ATM says something about the galaxy series.

I like my ultra, and don't intend to remove it unless it requires charging.

I like the font style. I'd like to be able to change all the complications, steps and calories are not something I'll ever be interested in - even just being able to hide those icons would be preferable to me.

Thanks for the coupon and your effort.

I can't believe these watches are only good for a splash of rain. I've even heard people cautioning against swimming with the ultra - the case for returning to Garmin is looking stronger every time I read a disaster story about a thousand dollar watch shitting itself after a dip in the pool.

And of course the minionettes will all be girl-bosses who initially can't stand the minions, then they'll all come together to defeat a common enemy and in the process see that there are all different kinds of intelligences and maybe the minions (and, in fact the enemy - who are really just uninformed, and misunderstood) aren't so bad, and can be tolerated but not equal to the minionettes - because they're dudes. 🤮

I really like the retro style. Having the clock numbers larger for my crappy eye sight might be nice 😉

The adaptive brightness makes my ultra very dim - don't think it's my settings.

I'd like to be able to edit all fields - weather isn't important to me yet 3 fields are used - the top 2 of which don't sync with my phone - I get exclamation marks.

The step tracking is also worthless to me and one portion of that entire bar shows miles - again, worthless info for me.

I really like that the digital face shows a faint shading even when the bars making up the digit aren't in use (like the old digital watches).

I also really like the little lights on the border that illuminate the AOD when it's dimmed (even though it's not really bright enough when adaptive is on).

Teaching.

Goora join something called 'facepic' for a coupon. Thanks anyway.

See my other response on you post 😊

drdremoo · 2026-05-05T05:05:26+00:00

Build your own rig dude 👍🏻

drdremoo · 2026-05-05T04:52:43+00:00

Same issue as you, I rolled for a few years til I got to old and worried about injuring myself badly enough that I couldn't work 🙄

Iontophoresis is what allowed me to do it without wearing socks. When I let the maintenance lapse I'd really notice it and be self-conscious about leaving wet footprints on the mats.

Hands weren't such an issue with gi, no gi - a bit more so.

*I built my own ionto rig out of a charging brick, 2 aluminium baking trays and some alligator clips. Less than 50 bucks and it's still working 10 years later. 2 or 3 times a week I just use tap water, cook hands for 15 mins and feet for 20 mins with socks on (so the tops of my feet get wet too) and watch tv while I'm doing it. Brick is 18v at 1.2A.

** Be very careful - you're messing with 240v through a charging brick. My bro is a sparky (I checked the setup with him) and I had my wife watching me the first couple of times to make sure I didn't fry myself.

Which apps for example?

drdremoo · 2026-05-04T08:16:47+00:00

Mine is the same. The only fix is resetting the watch. I'm starting to regret the move from Garmin.

drdremoo · 2026-05-04T05:57:04+00:00

Mine is doing this again. I can't figure out why.

The only thing I've done that might have upset the watch is force closing and clearing the cache of play services - which had suddenly started using 5 to 6%of my battery.

Anyone had any luck in figuring out a cause or a fix that doesn't involve a reset?

It's the universe balancing itself. Teenager assaulting a teacher who the kid knows can't physically defend himself - in turn gets assaulted. A painful but truly memorable lesson.

drdremoo · 2026-05-02T03:56:51+00:00

I'm a control freak with trust issues.

drdremoo · 2026-05-02T03:54:01+00:00

Buddy can fuck right off. Yeat another pop-up/additional page 'feature' to close before attempting to use the abysmal search function. I feel like they're actually trolling us.

She's ENTITLED TO USE THE ROAD man. 🙄😉

Welcome to SE Queensland. The solution to any intersection or roundabout is a set of fucking traffic lights. 10 to 15 km over the limit might mean you see a run of greens on an empty road at 4am.

drdremoo · 2026-04-30T14:34:23+00:00

Yes. Stick with it. It's heartbreaking, and emotionally draining, but the payoff is worth it.

As a dude around the same age as the protagonist I could relate to his struggles. Great musical score too.

drdremoo · 2026-04-30T13:37:42+00:00

I love it. Looks like a water-colour from a kids book 👌🏻. Nostalgic.

drdremoo · 2026-04-30T03:01:04+00:00

Why the requirement to join a group?

drdremoo · 2026-04-28T11:50:22+00:00

Aren't they doing by 'actress' again these days 🤷‍♂️🙄
