Ooooh that's a lot... but it's an investment. I see the predicament
The predicament is that in terms of the value of materials, it's a bit overpriced. However, the locking mechanism of the knife is unlike others so it is quite unique.
I get that, youre paying for the specific design. Can you test it without purchase?
No physical stores with that knife in stock around me. So best I can do is buy and ship it back if I don't like it.
Any unbias reviews?
Got a youtube guy saying it's his favorite knife ever and everybody else is saying the lock is hurting their fingers
I have to go to the other bunnings 15 mins away as opposed to the one 5 mins away to pick up some panels for shelving
I've become allergic to Veet hair removal cream. Worked like a charm the first two times with no irritation/rash, third time was not the charm because now I still have slight rash over my arms & legs :x
I can't build more Lego sets because I've run out of space to put them when they're done. Waiting on getting more shelving.
feeling bored lol
Have you tried this website called Lemmy? It's pretty good
Have to wait a few days after shaving before I can safely wax my legs. Really hate the feeling of the little hair follicles rubbing against my pants before I rip them out.
First world country becoming a third world country. USA.
(gestures vaguely:) I'm American...
But the question was about first world....
Sorry for what you're going mate but I couldn't help making the joke
It's a fair point. I'm one of the lucky ones, really. For now I only have to suffer embarrassment.

Also there's a certain fork my partner hates using but refuses to get rid of.

Our Senior sysadmin is on vacation, and on Wednesday, our licenses for both our email filtering system and our firewall run out.
I was tasked with getting the replacement systems set up, but due to miscommunication and other issues, I didn't have enough time for a proper test run.
So we're going to flip the switch and hope we are still able to log in and receive mail afterwards.
Cause if we aren't, we're forced to pay 30k € for a license renewal after already purchasing the replacements.
This has lead to a resurgence of my ADHD symptoms, and I wasn't able to wind down all weekend.
I've been having a constant fight-or-flight reflex for the past 3 days, but there's nothing to fight or flee from.

Instead of treating my intense joint pain, I just got prescribed an app with streching exercises. Thanks for nothing.
What do you suspect could be the problem? How are your stress levels? How is your microbiome? Do you sleep well? Do you eat well?
Injury Related, Bad, Bad, No, No.
Well…in parallel to whatever treatment, you could slowly work on those. They really help in recovery. Inflammation can make joints more painful. For sleep, what I did was, slowly change attitude to whatever causes the stress, take magnesium bisglycinate before bed, not eat a few hours before bed, use some relaxing music and meditation, go for walks outside. I always ate healthy, so that it easy for me, but you can start making small changes incremental. Bad sleep makes you crave junk food. For microbiome, I started making my own kefir and kimchi. I also followed some protocols from Dr Wiliam Davis book: Super Gut. That is how I cured my SIBO. Recently, I introduced more iodine, and that helped me even more with the sleep.
