Right? Unless you're sanding lead paint or eating the chips, I don't believe you have anything to worry about. Just a lot of people repeating information incorrectly

As much as you may disagree, it really can be that simple though. Hopefully you can get to better sleep, best of luck.

I only mean the anxiety of "am I going to get enough sleep tonight." But it really is that simple, stop caring and just let your body sleep. Or not. And if not, take the rest as good enough. Works wonders if you don't care how much sleep you get and just go to bed when you're tired and get up when you wake up.
I used to be the worst sleeper until I finally just said fuck it. Now I sleep like a baby, my head hits the pillow and I'm OUT 99% of the time. Still have those nights where I feel like I was up all night, but the next day I feel absolutely no different. Once I let go of caring about it and worrying about the next day, the entire problem disappeared.

Why do you assume it's going off soon? Just go back to sleep and let it happen when it's going to happen whether that's in 5 minutes or 5 hours.

That's the point, just let it go and let your alarm wake you up when it's time, whether it's 1 minute or 1 hour. I practice this and can say it has considerably increased my amount of sleep and decreased the amount of restless tossing and turning I do in anticipation of the alarm going off. To the guy saying they can decide whether to just doze off or go to a deep sleep depending on the time left is crazy. Sometimes 5 or 10 minutes of a deep sleep can be as good feeling as a few hours throughout the night.

Do you need better grip in water when wet?

More likely you're only picking up left or right audio from one plug or the other

Something I recently learned with quikcrete, bag directions say not to mix. Pour it in and add water. It naturally pulls it through and cures hard. So I bet yours is completely fine.

Probably illegal. I don't think you can legally sell a car with a recall without fixing it. Or at least dealers
