We have similar ‘smart’ Samsung washer and dryers that we purchased last year after our old Kenmore units bit the dust after many many years.

I am quick to warn anyone that I come across DO NOT buy Samsung machines under any circumstance.

Our wash times (and dry but especially wash) went up from astronomically. Even though the load size was supposed to be one of the largest we could find it no where near compares to what we had. Plus, a month or so after we had ours we received a notification from Samsung that they needed to log into our washer and do a ‘firmware’ update because several of those models were causing fires.

Imagine your washing machine causing a fucking fire and burning your house down.

I for one, welcome our AI overlords. All hail Omnius!

Reading the comment from the guy about his bed was a sauna all night from the heat. Did he not just think to unplug it? I mean I’ve never seen one of these beds, what happens if you do??

Kaiju!!

Am not a European but are other Middle Eastern countries allowed to compete? Why would Israel even be considered a part of this to begin with, it doesn’t quite make sense.

Every day I fear we get closer to seeing ManBearPig.

I read your post and reply below and am surprised that your info never showed back up online.

I tried this myself about a year ago back when Google first announced they would also add a tool to assist in removal of unnecessary info like this.

I found that I was able to remove about 70% that never came back.

10-15 percent more, whether they were via Google or whatever, would flat out refuse to remove the info for various reasons.

The remainder would often remove it only for me to find it later with some sort of ‘change’ and that being - they put the info back in and had changed the spelling of my last name or now had me listed as a business so as to get around certain privacy listing rules (like WTF).

I switched up my meds as I’ve found my regular allergy meds are simply not working any more.

I’ve been using Claritin as needed before bed the last few weeks and also Astapro (probably butchered that spelling) as needed off and on during the spring season. The latter is a nasal spray and it actually does a pretty good job.

Last weekend I came down with either a cold or sinus infection so I broke down and got some behind the counter 12 hour Sudafed. Those have immediately helped me but I’m limited to taking them during the daytime and only before 12pm because they seem to really keep me wired unfortunately.

I think someone else mentioned an option of pain relief - I usually use Motrin or a generic. That way it hits with a (not too high) dosage of Tylenol and Ibuprofen that works well to tamper down the sinuses.

I wanna go Dr. Who regeneration style. Supernova bright light that can be seen for miles.
