« on: June 09, 2025, 08:11:41 AM »have not bought yet, but have been looking into how to make my place smell incredible all the time, without having to buy stuff over and over, and it seems like candle warmers is the answer. stay tuned
I toyed with those oil diffusers and hooking it directly into my HVAC but never committed. I now use wax melters on each floor then my smart switch kicks them on/off a daily schedule.

on the bird thread, hearing a lot of people like those bird feeders with a nest doorbell in them. I personally want to drive those rats with wings away from my deck but for those of you who like bird voyeurism I hear it's cool.

« on: June 06, 2025, 08:35:42 AM »Anything new and fun people have been to recently? I'm hanging with some friends that are a bit fancier than me and Mrs SF. We like bars and breweries and they are more of the cocktail crowd. I'm trying to find a spot that's a good mix of both so I don't have to sit in a nice steakhouse or whatever for 3 hours and $600. I've steered them to Jims Alley, Hanks, and the oyster place in Brookside before and i'm running out of ideas.
Could try Muni, Enzo, Afterwords (no food), Kon Tiki, Mineral Lounge, Fern Bar, Fox & Pearl, Bar Medici, Murmation (mostly a coffee shop recently expanded to more food/booze), Lowest Ferns, Conductor Club (haven't been), J. Rieger places (one indoor, one outdoor)

Zero zero pasta is really good. As is Fox & Pearl brunch. Viva ala westside!
Affare white asparagus for a bit longer, if you haven't had white asparagus soup I'd get there this week folks.

« on: May 23, 2025, 09:31:25 AM »Furniture guys, 2 couches, what are we tipping now a days?
I would scramble and probably try and find my kids hidden money because I never have any cash and hope to find a $20 to give them.
Yeah I'm thinking 10 each or 20 each depending on how little they eff up my walls.

I don't know if my sushi tastes have improved or they have declined but doesn't seem as great as it was. Has a loyal following.

« on: May 19, 2025, 09:16:36 AM »I need to step up my robo vac game. I've had a dumb one that does fine when it doesn't immediately head for the 3 spots in my house it can get stuck in. I have mostly hardwoods with some rugs. I don't think I want the mop one. That seems like a PIA. I'd also like to not spend more than $300 or so. I'd like to buy at Costco if possible. My last one had an issue and it was a pain dealing with the company. Any robot vac pro tips are appreciated.
Roborock is the way. Got you in about any price range. Beware you'll start incrementally looking at better features for a few bucks more and end up with a 2k model.
Ha, I've heard that Roborock is good and was just looking. Costco has the fancy ones. The Roborock website has some on sale. The Q8 was $599 and it's $299 on the site. It has mopping though. Do you know if it mops all the time or can I just tell it to vacuum?
Every one of them I have that has a mop you can tell it not to mop. Now the dumber one (real old model) that means just don't drop water, on the nicer one it lifts up the mops and doesn't spin, or drop water (revo Q). you can decide based on how you divide up the floor into rooms or spaces like an area rug.

Also the social media aspect of following other people.
I've forgotten if I've liked something at a restaurant or hated it and I'm sure I've forgotten a restaurant in another city before.
