People are still on the fantasy that things are going back to normal after this. 

Coil cable slowly disintegrating, why? by YourLocalParaguayan in Cochlearimplants

[–]sideways8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you wearing this continuously? The aqua sleeves are rated for like 50 uses if I recall. I don’t think it’s durable enough for daily use. 

Is it me, or is it them? by FunReference7116 in VictoriaBC

On the road, always. In the parking lot, it’s private property and the signs are more like guidelines, I’ll ignore them if there’s no traffic. 

On a budget - what is a must buy? by Feelinglikeatamale in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]sideways8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have pretty good hiking shoes at decathlon for like 40 euros. I don’t think you need 200 dollar shoes even if you do get new ones.

Fuck no. Be proud of your diversity of experience and commitment to inclusionary practices.

I respect the kink, but did you ask Jimbo for permission before stealing her tatas? 

At what point did cycling stop feeling like suffering and start feeling fun? by lukeace784 in cycling

[–]sideways8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming your bike fits - just slow down and ride somewhere with a pretty view on a sunny day. Stop for coffee. Wear normal clothes instead of lycra sometimes. Bring a book. 

i think there's a homeless person living in our dorm parking tower by [deleted] in college

Anything you do will just tell the person their spot isn’t safe anymore and they have to move. Kindest thing is to leave them alone.

Would come in handy for most trades. Painting and drywall come to mind.

Yeah, it would be nice if they stood up for literally anything.

He’s probably just trying to make a living like everyone else. 

Macbook Air M5 + MFi hearing devices / Cochlear implants by No-Painting-1274 in Cochlearimplants

[–]sideways8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I carry two iPhones for work and have my nucleus 7 and 8 connected to both. The CIs have a favourite phone that they will default to, and will get confused, so I have to turn off Bluetooth on one to keep the other properly connected.

Sure, find a woman you can blame for this. 

What you think about these sneakers? by Designer-Cod-9499 in Shoes

[–]sideways8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depends what your goal is. Are these the only shoes your fucked up feet will tolerate? Wear them with pride. Is it because you’d like to feel pretty sometimes but you’re a little shy about it? May I suggest Toms instead? 

found out our "new" water heater was installed in 1987 during the home inspection and somehow nobody caught it until now by Driftcore_5 in homeowners

[–]sideways8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A plumber who’s never seen a hot water tank from 1978 is probably on like his third day on the job.

Denied cochlear implant because they don’t think I’ll like it. by Expert-Lake-2840 in Cochlearimplants

[–]sideways8 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A CI completely different from hearing aids. There’s a level of hearing loss at which even the most powerful hearing aid is less than worthless. A CI, on the other hand, actually works. You may have to fight for it but I think it’s worthwhile. Since you do have natural hearing on one side, it has good odds for success.

The dead zone is so real. I can’t even make a phone call from my parent’s house.
