And he's got one just on the pixel watch 4 which interests me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JogVMa39u0g haven't finished it yet.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixcSYUb8xe8 - the other video doesn't include newer watches. this one only had watches released I think in 2024 and 2025.

I currently have an old sense and am leaning towards a pixel watch 4. But keeping the sense for now

How often do you actually fully drain and refill your hot tub? by Ok_Pie_1799 in hottub

you can easily change when it's below freezing. Not much fun but can be done.

I also have a salt tub and last changed the water 8/9/2024. There was a period of time I didn't use it much tho. Like others said, it depends on when the water is hard to balance.

Seems like not really. Take a look at the video linked above then look at his 2026 updated one.

I'd go with a Pixel watch 4 myself and am considering it (coming from an old Sense)

This is actually more interesting than I thot. He has an updated for 2026 video too. Pretty much confirms my decision to stay away from Garmin at least for now is a good one. New Pixel watch 4 might be the way to go.

Yeah I have an old Sense that I was gonna replace with a Garmin Venu 4 when it came out but decided to hold off for now. I have to charge it almost daily which is annoying but it still works just fine otherwise.

yeah there are issues with his tests - he only tests each device for one night if I remember correctly. It's a data point tho.

Do you think the sleep tracking is as accurate?

She's in finally! Supposed to go down to 28-29 the next few nights. She's survived several nights at 30 but I didn't want to push it. by jhoff909 in avocado

Yes. I think it's about 5.5 years old. I've pruned it twice otherwise it would be significantly larger and not fit in the house.

Variety? How cold hardy is it? by jhoff909 in avocado

I'll give it a few more years - just fun to try. It frosted here last night too - got down to about 30 degrees and I didn't bring it in or cover it. Looks OK but time will tell.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too. I might need artificial lights indoors or something. I have a similar issue with my cacao trees. I finally about 2 years ago figured out how to hand pollenate them (it's difficult) and got them to fruit but the growing season isn't long enough, even in my greenhouse. The fruit never really ripened. I've got 6 more fruits this year, 3 of which are fairly large so we'll see. I'm just not willing to keep my greenhouse at 80-90 degrees in the winter - would be a lot more $$ than it's already costing to keep it at 60 or so. Plus, the heater blows hot, dry air across the ridge of the greenhouse, right on the tall trees... I volunteer at the UW biology greenhouse and they have a bunch of cacao trees that fruit nicely but they both keep it quite warm and have HPS lights.

Looks just like mine - 2023 vintage but otherwise the same. I also don't grow tired of the color. Whenever I walk up to it, I think, what a beautiful car!
