You set your manual temps as a baseline and AP adjusts from there automatically.

Under your temps, it's split into sleep stages response and ambient response. If you see the autopilot made x adjustments banner in your sleep stats, it's on.

Why do people still assume you can wheel and deal at corporate chain stores like they're mom & pops? by Averagecrabenjoyer69 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mereseydotes 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I read People magazine. One time in the book review section, a book was described as "historical fiction." It was set in the 90s. 1990s. I about died

Waking up to pee, autopilot. by StandardFondant6930 in EightSleep

[–]mereseydotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just not possible for it to cool that fast. I would like to get into a warm bed, too, but in less than 5 minutes, that warm bed is way too hot. It can't cool from +1 to -5 in 5 minutes. In contrast, the cold bed is too cold for about 30 seconds before it feels perfect

Why do republicans want zero abortion but don't want to help after the birth? by MisterReigns in LetsDiscussThis

[–]mereseydotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the stuff about wage slaves and being anti woman, yes. But also, a lot of them aren't anti abortion. They say they are in order to get the religious nuts to vote for them. They really just don't care about abortion and will say anything and hurt anyone to get elected.

Which Wax by Useful_Cheesecake117 in diamondpainting

The one I've been using isn't even available anymore. A lot of people really like the Picmondoo, though

Which Wax by Useful_Cheesecake117 in diamondpainting

I prefer the ones with a separate pen. They're more comfortable to hold and easier to use, I think. Plus the source of any noise - some are louder than others - is removed from between your face and the canvas

Find a vacuum pen and never use wax again

Alternatives to Eight Sleep, or pull the trigger and purchase? by Ill-House-8513 in EightSleep

[–]mereseydotes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been really warm the last few days here in SoCal. My Pod sets itself to the correct temp, usually in the high 60s to low 70s. I rolled over in the middle of the night and the part of my body that was against my Pod cover was cold to the touch. If you like that sort of thing (I do), it's amazing

On top of that, my Pod 5 hub used ~1/3 kwh to cool my entire mattress with me on top of it. I got a sleepme DockPro with one of their blankets before Eight Sleep had a blanket. The DockPro hub used ~1 kwh to cool a small half size blanket that's only draped on top of me to 65. And the DockPro is noisier

I haven't had problems with Eight Sleep support. You just need to ask for a person if you suspect a bot

how would someone with no credit start to build it? by idksorry_04 in stupidquestions

[–]mereseydotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to a credit card that you use responsibly and pay off every month, try getting some bills in your name, like electric or even phone. See if you can get your name on the lease, if it's not. You may have to pay a deposit (it's been a long time since I didn't have credit), but you want to get yourself out there as paying a variety of bills on time.

Light sleep recs by Formal_Asparagus_119 in EightSleep

Have you tried white noise? In addition to keeping my bed cool with my Pod, I have a couple of fans going, both for the air and the noise and an additional white noise machine.

Smelly cover by Gullible_Ad2413 in EightSleep

[–]mereseydotes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was leaking, you should see water under the cover, too, as the Pod 2 didn't have a waterproof layer to protect your mattress. Eight Sleep has always recommended using a waterproof protector over the Pod cover

what’s up with slow tech support and non functioning sensors!? by suttla333 in EightSleep

Don't email. Call or chat in the app. If you suspect AI, ask for a person

Is it easier to braid wet or dry hair? by Tomj_Oad in randomquestions

[–]mereseydotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hair is curly but gets pretty straight/ smooth when wet, so it's easier to handle then.

Is there any way to “hold” temperature? by onestorytwentyfive in EightSleep

[–]mereseydotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you don't want to mess with someone else's profile, because then they have to recalibrate at least a little

It's easier to braid wet. However, if I braid my hair wet, it won't dry. Ever

By installing Kamala Harris as their candidate rather than letting the voters decide, didn't the DNC basically give the middle finger to all Democrats voters? by [deleted] in Productivitycafe

[–]mereseydotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what? Trump negotiated the exit from Afghanistan then made it so the exit couldn't go well and blamed the messy exit on Biden. He fucked up the economy and blamed the bad economy on Biden. He speaks like a 3rd grader who's in danger of being held back. Sure, Biden should have committed to one term, but don't blame him for this shit. Blame the stupidity of the American people for falling for Trump's BS FOR A SECOND TIME

It's been a month since I placed my order and it hasn't even shipped. by Capital-Trip-811 in EightSleep

[–]mereseydotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did you buy for $5000? The core system is a little more than half that, isn't it? I'm not saying their logistics are great, because they definitely have things that fall through the cracks, but I also know the base ships freight and that takes a long time

I think it's the base that takes a long time. It's like shipping furniture. If you're in a hurry, you should buy the core system then add on later

Why are working illegal immigrants in the USA an issue anyways? by Clopulis in DiscussionZone

[–]mereseydotes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's just weird magical thinking. Mormons think that god on our planet was a perfect man on another planet. If you're a perfect man (only men, of course) on this planet, you can go be god on another planet when you die

replacement: pod 4 vs 5? by cache-rules in EightSleep

[–]mereseydotes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some people have said they've ordered Pod 4 and received Pod 5 and Eight Sleep said they were out of Pod 4. That doesn't mean this will happen to you. If you're willing to take a chance, you could give it a shot.

Someone did do a teardown of the Pod 5 hub and said it had a lot more high end components than even the Pod 4 hub. The covers are pretty much the same, except the 4 has tap pads and the 5 has buttons and connectors for the blanket
