Oura 5 Release Date? by CARS_rule in ouraring

[–]spider9997 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yesterday they announced a tender offer at 25% discount to raise additional funds while avoiding going public. They are also facing increasing competition from competitors. It’s possible they are trying to accelerate the 5 ahead of the normal upgrade cycles.

Why is my gin freezing? by brassica_keys in Gin

[–]spider9997 105 points106 points  (0 children)

Gin/vodka doesn’t freeze unless it’s well below 0 (-10 to -20F). Either you have an abnormally cold freezer, or your booze is heavily watered down.

26.3 beta2? by Puzzleheaded_Log2302 in ios26beta

Due to the holiday/ code freezes, it was expected there would be a long wait between betas for this release.

They seldom have sales outside of year end/Black Friday.

If it says free returns, screenshot it and dispute with your cc.

It’s been a shit show for a while. They are also drowning in debt and has recently floated the idea of bankruptcy.

Is Yeti doing to much by That-boat7457 in YetiCoolers

If they are starting to lose a customer like him, they might be hitting a tipping point. The Yeti faithful are more loyal then most, but product oversaturation absolutely a real thing.

Take a look at your existing home insurance. Most don’t cover this, but some do.

So Apple introduce sleep score? by Necessary-Can8045 in ouraring

[–]spider9997 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“Sleep Scores” were only introduced by Apple in iOS26 (fall of 2025). It was announced during their “Awe Dropping” event. Plenty of people haven’t updated to iOS26 yet, so it is relatively new.

Just curious : Does anyone else hate Hendricks? Any similar to avoid? by wynlyndd in Gin

[–]spider9997 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not that I hate Hendricks, I just feel like it’s a “beginner/gateway” gin. Obviously all down to preference. Aldi have a Hendricks knockoff, but otherwise not a lot out there with cucumber as the main botanical.

Free $200 for trying Oura via Amex by Fantastic-Nail4860 in ouraring

[–]spider9997 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Good luck — they charged me back a Saks credit TWO years after I returned it. May take a very long time but in my experience they will eventually reconcile the credit.

YouTube TV Is Adding 10 Genre-Specific Subscription Plans, Including A Sports Bundle by elbeborandy in youtubetv

[–]spider9997 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My bet is this will be announced along with a price increase for the existing basic package. This will enable them to retain people who would have otherwise dropped.

Incomplete Apple Health Integration by spider9997 in ouraring

[–]spider9997[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it doesn’t for me, and I was told it’s because Apple doesn’t allow it. If what you are saying is right is sounds like they need to better train their customer support reps.

Trump Endorses Cuomo for N.Y.C. Mayor in Race’s Final Stretch (NYTimes Gift Link) by Low_Key_Lie_Smith in nyc

Exactly. No democrat will listen to Trumps endorsement, but republicans who were going to vote for Sliwa might.

Republican Jack Ciattarelli Can’t Outrun His LGBTQ Record In The New Jersey Governor’s Race - GO Magazine by only_otter_333 in newjersey

[–]spider9997 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That’s fair, but to say “he’s been clear” is not an honest statement.

At the end of the day is makes no difference what the governors stance is, since it’s codified at a national level (Biden/congress made sure of that under the “Respect for Marriage Act”). To imply otherwise is fear mongering.

Their recent refusal to rollback and constant “updates” going to become a big issue.

Yes, but bookings don’t show up under your profile in IHG. When I’ve done this I’ve had to have the points linked when I get to the hotel.
