They are the only brand of boxers I wear personally.

I tried Saxx which are similar didn’t like them as much. Tried some of the MyPackage boxer briefs (former name of Bn3th). And liked them, they were cheaper too.

Been wearing them ever since. I am still trying to find what style/fabric I like the most. So far the basic cotton ones are my go to.

Once a year flush it out. It’s a very easy process, and the cost of materials isn’t expensive.

Get one 5 gallon pail, a submersible pump and two dishwasher hoses. You can either use vinegar, or buy a bottle of cleaner. The vinegar works fine, but you need to flush it out longer than the specialized cleaner. I just use vinegar as it’s half the cost typically.

Basically fill up the pail with the cleaning agent, turn off the gas to the tankless unit, unplug it from power. Your unit “should” have two maintenance ports for a cold and hot water line.

Basically connect the pump into the cold water port, use the second hose from the hot water port and have it drain back into the pail.

Takes about 1-2 hours with the vinegar. And 30-45 mins with the commercial cleaning agent.

When done. Disconnect the pump and hoses. Close all maintenance ports. Turn the tanks power and gas back on, and run your hot water for about 5-10 mins to drain all vinegar out of the lines.

YouTube your specific unit. Most are all done the same way.

This sounds very similar to me.

I was an android user since the OS was first released. I was a big pixel fanboy. Loved the camera on the pixel devices. Had the pixel 1xl,2xl, 4xl and then the pixel 6 pro.

The 6 pro was such an abysmal device for me, frustrated me to no end. I just said fuck it, jumped ship to apple to try them out. Bought the 13 pro max.

Honestly I could switch back to android tomorrow, there is pro’s and con’s to each operating system. But iOS does what I need it to do in a phone, the camera system is good enough for what I want out of a phone camera. The video is much better than the pixel devices.

Having iMessage over googles form of RCS is better and works more consistently.

Siri is not as useful as google assistant, however I literally use voice assistants for playing music, and asking the temperature and sports scores. So that doesn’t matter to me.

Apple CarPlay is way more reliable than android auto (for me).

Are your alarms set for the same time every day. Or are they always different?

I use both the default clock/alarm app, as well as alarm clock for me.

The 3rd party option has a feature that requires you to solve a math equation before Turning the alarm off. I am such a heavy sleeper that I am prone to just turning the alarm off without waking up fully.

I use the 3rd party app as my initial alarm. Then always have the default apple one set 5 mins or so after as a backup.

I have sleep focus set every day from 9:30 to 7am. My alarm is for 6:20 everyday I need it.

Not sure how handy you are. Built I built my own platform base frame. With a metric fuck tone of storage. With 3 massive drawers on each side. And one at the foot. (King size mattress).

Material was plywood and maple. You could just do it all out of plywood. Cost wise it was maybe 500-600 (Canadian maple dollars), for all material, push to open drawer slides, screws, wood dye (I wanted the maple with a darker colour), and top coat finish.
