IOwnCalculus posted:Disagree - I mean it's still a pressure on things but when they're older and have a more predictable sleep schedule, you can work around it. This was largely sarcastic, but text and tone/sarcasm detection via text on the internet, blah blah blah and here we are. Having said that, the past week has been horrible. sickness doesn't help, but my 5yo is not sleeping much better than the 9mo (aka barely at all), so after kids go to bed it's clean up for an hour, then she passes out while I try to stay awake and manage the wakeups so we can both take turns over night. It's a really rough spot for us right now, and our kids are amazing and WILL grow out of it. Just trying to be patient.

angryrobots posted:Y'all definitely need to have kids-free days scheduled from time to time, if you're not already. Even if it's just a day of hanging out at home. That’s something we are working on. We tend to be more focused on the kids than us, but we recognize it as a weak point and are making efforts to rectify it. Have I mentioned that my wife is amazing? There is literally no one in the world I could imagine doing this with.

But then I'd be reading something in GBS.... I'm not sure I can handle that.

Being a relative newb to watches beyond battery powered quartz movement, I could use some input... My better half bought me a Victorinox Automatic as an engagement present (we've been married 6 years now) which I really love, but it's been picking up more and more time (in the realm of 5+minutes a week). I sent it in to get serviced, and they come back with $375 to rebuild. With the cost of shipping (another $35), that puts me just $100 shy of buying a brand new version of the same watch. Digging around, it looks like they expect this every 4-6 years anyways. I like it enough to pay it this time..but do it again in another 5 years? Ouch. Is this common amongst automatics? Ultimately, I need to decide to either decline the work and keep the watch as is and constantly adjusting it, or shelling out and getting it fixed now, and re-evaluate later on down the line. I can afford it which is nice, but that's still a lot of $$$ to fix something that I wouldn't expect to be a problem after a few comparatively short years... What would you do, goons? Sentimental value is pushing me towards the latter right now but I'm open to outside perspective.. FWIW, the better half doesn't care so much and just wants me to be happy. Have I mentioned she's awesome?

Thanks. I'll start catching up. AI is my first stop usually, because AI.

Motronic posted:Yes. Some watches go up in value enough that by the 2nd or 3rd rebuild it's not 80% of their value anymore. But I'm not sure how that really helps you when you aren't trying to sell it. RIP. Thanks for the info!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seuPuSI1CTE Sounds like no more motortrend youtube. Slightly annoying, but I imagine this helps their bottom line a bit. Discuss.

Amazingly, I haven't used adblock for close to a decade, if not longer. It just never did much for me. I largely don't get annoying popups day to day, and most of the stuff I watch on youtube, I'll gladly sit through most of the 5 seconds prior to skipping if it means the content creator gets a piece.

I remember Robbaz from when my summer car came hit the scene and and he cracked me up. Is he any good in general?

What prompted all this discussion about the forums closing? lowtax being lowtax? I'm clearly not in the know.

Another good use of Facebook... Find out my little sister is getting a divorce. Thanks for the phone call, sis!
