I have my mom's old Bamix from a long time ago (I've owned it for 10ish years, my mom owned it for decades before that). And both of us have used it heavily. Still works a dream.

It's amazingly well made.

This! Love mine

Your arms.

Recently bought a Braun for doing soups in the Dutch Oven. It seems solid and works well for that. For daily smoothies I much prefer This Nutribullet It’s nice because it’s basically hands off once you load it, maybe a shake or two. Our smoothies are heavy duty too with all frozen Beets chunks, Strawberries, and Açaí packs. It is very good at its job and since we use it daily I can justify a single-use appliance. It is decidedly not bifl however purchasing the extended warranty somewhat mitigates that.

True, but then you’ve only got like three different sizes possible, because you can only change the depth. There are not going to be a ton of glass options that fit this description because glass containers that stack like this tend to get stuck and can break so much more easily. That’s why it’s easier to find plastic containers that work like this. It’s even a problem with restaurant grade pint glasses which are nearly indestructible. Ever had a stack of those little devils decide they are better together? Such a pain to get them apart. Next time you’re at a bar notice the pint glasses. Most places won’t store them stacked because as the cool after being put away warmer from washing they have a tendency to get stuck. It happens with Pyrex measuring cups too. Plastic can be wrenched apart. Glass can be too, but sometimes it makes big giant mess. Stacking glass containers that are all the same size inside of each other makes them significantly more susceptible to shattering as the expansion and contraction with the temp change as well as the extra tight banging around is just not a great mix and makes stuff break so much quicker.

I have seen some glass that has silicone on the outside which would help a ton, but those seem to be bested still. Maybe some company out there makes stacking ones? That could be a possibility. I just haven’t found any.

No

Batteries will eventually stop charging.

The ear pads will wear out.

The plastic will become brittle and crack

The Bluetooth will eventually become obsolete and stop communicating with devices.

3-7 years of life would be my guess.

That being said they are phenomenal headphones. I have the MX3s. And my dad just got the MX-5s. They are such lovely devices to use. He's replacing a pair of Bose headphones that I find to be trash.

Plenty more where that came from. Google search: “glass food storage using the same lid”

If the glass tapers in from top to bottom they can be stacked. I had some containers like this a while back but the plastic lids sucked so wouldn’t recommend them. But it is possible to have them stacked with same size lid.

As a stomach sleeper I accidentally stumbled on the solution for me. My wife and I bought a king sized bed with individually adjustable mattresses. The mattresses are essentially two twin sized mattresses with the bed frames bound together at the head and foot.

I found if I adjust the binding strap at the head end of the mattresses to leave about a 2”-3” gap between the mattresses, I can lay comfortably face down with my face between the mattresses. It’s essentially like the hole in a massage table for your face. I use a thin, hard pillow across the gap to support my forehead which offloads the pressure on my cheeks. The gap is wide enough that plenty of air circulates.

Before discovering this arrange, I used to spin in bed like a rotisserie chicken. Now I’m comfortable all night and wake up with zero aches and pains. When we first bought the mattresses I hated that discontinuity between the mattresses but now I love it.

I like this GIR one. Definitely not bifl but high-quality and has a nice ergonomic form.

Sounds like a dream, thank you for the input.

Thanks! Read that in the post from a few months ago. I'll look in to it!

I see what you did there

You must have a lot of free time to just peruse stores for food containers.

I am looking into these. I’d be happy with two sizes of rectangle and two sizes of round. Four types of containers with two lids total sounds pretty close.

I will look into this. Not ideal from a storage standpoint (very small 1920s kitchen) but I will definitely consider!

I’ve done plenty of googling for this, but thanks. The internet is a deep place.

Light oil on fire - don’t lose the fades but lose the jacket.

Well, I'm glad to hear it. Because that would, indeed, be disgusting.

Headphones and earbuds are a popular topic for the sub. I'll never understand why.

It’s an advertisement for a pillow. You want to show the pillow! And a pillow case is fabric over a pillow. It fits the shape. It’s not a rigid structure. Mattress ads have people sleeping without sheets all the time!

I looked at the link online where a) no one in the photos was using one, and b) it doesn't look like one would even go over it with that design.
