another one for the trying to learn japanese - my problem is i start and then stop. rinse & repeat so i never get very far 🤣
i had this question a couple of days ago and today fell totally down the fuck spez rabbithole.
found myself on the main discord where the coordinators were talking to uruguay about doing the "u" after columbia (?) declined. guess hearing that, both uruguay and equador wanted in.
there was discussion of not stepping over the swiss flag in one of the letter because they were part of the coalition.
these folks are dedicated - many commented they hadn't really slept since it went live. kudos to all of them for the passion they showed today.
tbh it was impressive and one of the best executed operations i've seen in a long time. very fun to see up close.
working for a global multinational company i only wish we were this efficient internally ❤️
these are from a place in bellevue wa that specializes in them.
and feiw have been all over europe & asia but japan is hands down my favorite place to visit ever.
tokyo is a monster of a great city ... foreign as you can get but amazingly easy to navigate.
very nice people, terrific food city with a really old beautiful culture.
all i can offer for advice is to not over think it. find a flight and hotel in your budget and just do it. guarantee you won't be disappointed ❤️
💯i was in strong anger last week.
my biggest tip is that if you're on ios get wefef. great app that makes the lemmy experience beautiful and seamless.
when you read a comment from c/all from a community you want to join you can click on the community c/link to see all the posts from that community.
then use the three dots in the app at the top right to subscribe. soooo much easier than trying to search for a community from the web ux.
and i guess the other tip is to just manage your expectations - reddit wasn't built in a day and it'll take a while for all of our niche communities to create new homes here 🥰
hopefully whatever you were making with that sour cream will survive the beef rawhide replacement 🤣
welcome to you and everyone else coming over! looking forward to great shenanigans.
spez fucking with 3rd party developers, mods and fucking down on lies to the community.
i also struggled with the idea of paying for this but tbh after using it for over a year now, i don't have a problem.
we live in a place with micro climates where there temps can swing widely at night from day to day & the auto pilot does small fine tuning based on a number of things. this for me at least is worth $10 a month.
compare & contrast with the oura ring which requires a $5/mo sub to get any useful insight out of it - without the subscription you only get how long you slept witha proprietary sleep score that has no insight behind it. after spending a few hundred dollars for the ring this really started to piss me off.
at least with the 8 sleep bed the device is actually performing / working for me vs just giving me data.
the 8 bed also gives you much of the same data oura does so the subscription just hits differently for me.
finally if you're thinking about this - definitely consider the cover vs the full mattress. same tech and they way they've designed it makes it fit beautifully on your existing setup at ~ $1k less than the mattress combo 😊
my sleep 8 heading/cooling bed last year. was tired of sleeping crappy, had tried just about everything from supplements to saunas, exhausted all other ideas ... out of desperation decided to throw down for it.
seriously life changing. no matter what temp the room is at the bed is always perfect. takes a while for the auto pilot to learn your likes but when it does ... oh man.
much love for my smart mattress ❤️
this ^^. even if we peel off 5% in a relatively even scrape across all the interests that's enough content for me to scratch the itch daily.
agree with what everyone else has said here. worry less about "should" and go find your tribe wherever it may be.
as i once said to a friend who contemplated the same kind of move years ago, if it doesn't work out you can always move back. not like it's a one way street.
