My father has been using this model daily since 2205! It’s never skipped a beat, and I had the pleasure of making the family our morning lattes when visiting them this past weekend.

Reply to Medicine Dosage Syringe? by jonathan-zollinger
When you buy toddler medicine, doesn't it come with a syringe? I wouldn't rely on a separate/reusable syringe for this-- lots of those meds are sugary/sticky and tough to clean out perfectly, and in little kids having precise dosing is really important. Droppers are not precise enough and neither are the large 60cc types of syringes for small volumes. Please stick with what comes with the med or ask the pharmacy for replacements.

I vote the SanDisk clip. Still using mine from 2008.

The RS is arguable one of the best consumer-level espresso machines... ever! There's communities dedicated to modding it, as well. Here one person discusses modding.
Get parts here.
These machines cost US$500+ new...

I would get something with Bluetooth. Probably more than half the headphone and earbuds on the market are Bluetooth right now, so you might as well be future proof. If it were me, id probably find a fitness watch since I’m assuming you are using it for exercise anyway.

I have a Sandisk that I use for walks, and I bought it because it's pretty much the only standalone mp3 player that'll play Audible audiobooks. I'm very happy with it.
(I even bought a single-ear earphone for spatial awareness cause I'm weird.)

I don’t understand the hate IKEA gets. Sure, the really cheap stuff is cheap, but still very functional. At the higher price points the furniture seems pretty sturdy, and a lot of it is easily customized.

This picture is from the day i bot it. Sticker has been off since then pretty much. If it was on the side I'd have kept it as a testament to the generosity of the Goodwill Gods but on the front is too ugly.

Have a pair of second hand Herman miller aeron chairs at home. Over 10 years on and they function and look as new.

I'm doing Gaggiuino. Temperature and pressure control, repeatable automatic pressure profiles. Cool mod. I have all the parts for electronics already, just need to order the plumbing parts.

modding those with a pid makes them some of the best (single boiler) machines out there period.

Looks very similar to the Saeco espresso machine I got nib from goodwill a few years back. Works great still.
