Hi all, I got the FOMO when signing up for the recent $35/mo promotion with "GETMORE". I saved a ton of money from my Verizon plan for essentially the same service...but then saw they doubledowned with the next promotion of $30/mo with "SWITCH25".

I was a bit nervous but made the move and figured I would share my experience below to help others.

Disclaimer: Use at your own risk! There are horror stories everywhere.

My Scenario: Move from Visible to temporary carrier, then back to Visible.

  1. Choose Your Temporary Carrier
    1. Select a carrier for the transition, such as Visible, Tello, or US Mobile.
      1. As of this guide, US Mobile offers a 30-day free trial.
    2. Upd

Our S8 Pro Ultra cost $1345 back in December '23 as we got the 2 year warranty extension (+1 more from AMEX). We love it...runs a few times a week on the main floor and reduces my manual cleaning to zero. It avoids dogs and baby stuff well, with decent transitions from hard floor to carpet.

The S8 MaxV Ultra is appealing...RGB camera of the Max line, voice commands to the unit, and presumably better suction/mopping, but at +$1000 for an upgrade, I am hard-pressed.

Anyone have any additional tricks for discounts or feedback on the upgrade?

More Details:

I got a trade-in offer for our nearly new S8 Pro Ultra in about 12 hours. It has 60 hours and was graded A with a $900 trad

It has been a decade and a half, so I don't know if that's reasonable

My Secure subscription renews in December, a few days after the cutoff for legacy plan renewal and given my history of numerous false blocks, I opted to try something new.

​

Many options out there, but I focused on:

  • BEST: Firewalla ($350+ for my gigabit connection)
  • GOOD: PiHole ($50-100 to run two, per community suggestions)
  • REASONABLE to GOOD: Custom DNS (free to a few bucks a month)

​

I went with setting up a Custom DNS configuration at NextDNS. OpenDNS and Quad9 are also great for future readers, but I wanted a bit more flexibility with malware and ad blocking.

​

My experience:

  • NextDNS' mobile site does not like password managers.
  • *Eero

Headed to Round Rock, Texas…any brisket recommendations in the area short of heading down to Austin? Thanks!

r/CPAP•

New to the party and hoping to ask for help so I can get some decent sleep (my spouse too)...I have a CPAP prescription and failed the insurance trial period, but refuse to give up.

I am a congested, mouth-breathing, active / side sleeper with a short, full beard and a ResMed Airsense 10 Autoset.

The ResMed AirFit N30i I have leaks from the nose pillows when I turn at night, waking everyone up.

Does anyone have positive experiences with a mask in a similar situation?

  • ResMed AirFit F20
  • ResMed AirTouch F20
  • F&P Vitera
  • Phillips DreamWear Full Face Mask

I was leaning towards the AirTouch but saw the Vitera could be another option worth looking at.

I greatly appreciat

Hi all,

I had my heart set on a replica of the Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman but upon more research I found that for my 5'10" body, there is minimal head support and you cannot nap without twisting around.

My hope is to find a lounge chair with good head and back support for lite reading, work-from-home call taking, and napping.

I haven't been able to find a good alternative to the Eames style without going to a recliner...anyone have a chair + ottoman setup you love?

Thanks in advance!

Bought this wallet a few years ago and used it less than 30 days. It is no longer offered on Corder and is not a 'traditional' wallet. It has a paper money slot and two horizontal slots for cards. The best way I can describe it is as a folded 'craft' wallet.

It is is in good condition with some indigo transfer on the edge and some darkening of the leather from handling. Functions as a basic wallet but I have moved onto just a card holder now.

  • Price: $42 OBO (new was $72+shipping)
  • Shipping: Included, slow and steady from CA
  • Terms: As is, no refunds, Paypal for goods (with protections) accepted only for verified addresses

Hi all,

Liz left me early 2016 and I miss her dearly...a beautiful early 2000's red-ish Ranger that I had known for the better half of a decade.

In her memory I have a well used Haynes repair manual (ISBN: 1563925397 799-1945), worth about $6 on Amazon books. It is usable and will be send USPS media mail.

Any students or redditors down on their luck with a need for some DIY repair help? If so, please PM why you deserve it and your address.

Best, GenG

*Mods, hope this is okay. Didn't want to throw it away.
