Add Finnish to the list, “kirpputori” = flea market.

My cat. Everyone would be played by cats. Untrained cats, just put them together in relevant places and roll camera. It’s art now.
Yea, about the same on extensive dental when I switched to a vet that did routine dental x-rays. This was the year after her radioiodine treatment for hyperthyroidism, $1500+. No regrets, little fucker is worth all of it and more, but damn those would be tough choices on a tighter budget.
Variolation (introducing the smallpox virus through the skin, not respiratory tract as its natural spread would be, usually leading to a milder infection and subsequent immunity) had been around for a while. Jenner’s accomplishment was successfully using the related cowpox virus to grant immunity to the smallpox virus, based on observations that people working with cattle rarely caught smallpox. This eliminated many of the downsides of variolation (eg. risk of breakthrough disease, and variolated individuals being infectious for smallpox for a while).
My current (Android, custom ROM that still gets updates) phone is 6 years old. I tend to upgrade when the phone breaks, the battery gives up, I hear of some severe vulnerability, or even these updates stop. As a replacement I get something used in the $100-150 range, so at least a couple years old. Maybe every 5 years or so.
Edit: The power bank is my friend.
Replacement mouthpiece for a vintage flute that had a plastic one.
Flute pad hole punch aimer thingy so I can make cheap China pads into open-hole ones for not-so-great flutes without having to buy a bunch of open-hole ones (version 1 was already made and proved the idea, now it’s just to iterate).
E facilitator prototypes before I CNC them (still learning CNC and I don’t like it).
Flute airstream aimer clip-on thingy for older people who have lost their embochure due to dental operations and such. (after I get the hang of the replacement mouthpiece; this is probably the most difficult one, due to precise mouthpiece shape needed)
Model for manually engraving the right size & shape replacement piece out of bone, for a badly cracked teapot.
Spherebot.
My first thought was “wtf, once a week, ain’t nobody got time for that”, but then I realized that when I visit my parents I make a long weekend out of it. And 5x48h is about as many hours per year.
But yea. Out of all the things you are likely to regret later in life, spending more time with the people you love is not one of them.
I think that for most, this was a shift from “mildly opposed” to “mildly supportive, and if you’re going to do it, do it now”.
At least my pro/con list hasn’t changed, just the odds. I still think we’re more likely to be dragged into war somewhere far away than being attacked ourselves, and that the US is an unreliable ally. But those are acceptable risks compared to the chance of having the whole NATO having our back if there were to be war on our ground.
Condoms aren’t 99% effective as contraception even if you use them perfectly, which most people don’t.
Of the companies listed on the screenshot or mentioned in the article, at least LinkedIn, Twitter, Deezer, Dropbox, Zynga and MyFitnessPal have been hacked before. Probably just a collection of old data?
Edit: Yeah, aggregated data
There are also 12 templar crosses. I did not find an anagram for “OREO” in Latin, nor is it “INRI” transposed directly in alphabet, but there might be something to force there. Both being four-letter words with same beginning and end and all.
Under half of women orgasm from penetration alone, and for about one in ten it’s outright painful. For me it does pretty much nothing. I guess we could move to whether air and vibrations on clit count as friction, but I’m pretty sure that’s not what anyone had in mind. Nor whether kisses and general intimate closeness count as “sexual pleasure”.

Friction. 🤮 No. NO.
Years ago the predecessor to Oscar didn’t support BMC devices, and doesn’t look like it’s changed. Yuwell isn’t listed either. Otherwise would be great. Maybe just don’t connect one of the more established ones?

I thought it was data out only too, but at my sleep apnea orientation was told (and I double checked that they really meant it) that they could also tweak settings remotely. ResMed. Always possible that they had misunderstood something too, of course.
Arvo Pärt - Spiegel im Spiegel (full album) 47 min https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4RmJaP683A
My “fall asleep” list also includes
Arvo Pärt - Cantus in memoriam Benjamin Britten (8 min).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp2oxWdRMuk
Philippe Gaubert - Madrigal (4 min).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv-bcyezUpE
which would bring it to almost an hour.
Edit: Maybe Fauré - Pavane arranged for flute and piano (6 min) to tide it over.

You may wish to reconsider this. At the moment you’re excluding everyone who adopted an adult cat of poorly documented past; we’re probably not that many, but we tend to want to be helpful and often own seniors. Vet assessment can usually narrow age range down to abt 3 years.
There’s also “The Walk” from the same makers, for us non-joggers. I tried it long ago and I think it was mostly an audio story that triggered a new chapter at some step counts.
