Wait, three years with no battery changes? No way. I swapped out my first wireless sensor after like 8 months because it kept chirping at 3 in the morning. Are you sure you're not just sleeping through the low battery alarms? My buddy tried a similar setup and had to replace two sensors within the first year because the batteries corroded inside the casing from humidity. Either you got a magic batch or the tech really did get that much better without me noticing.

Started another thread about mod style once and got completely ignored... I remember back on a wrestling forum around 2005, the main mod was this guy who would write a full essay about why your post broke the rules and offer to help you fix it. Then one time I accidentally posted a spoiler for a big match result in the discussion area instead of the spoiler section, and he just moved it without even saying anything. Different forums always had different vibes though, some were strict and some were total chaos even back then.

Right but was he even aware it was supposed to be replaced or did he just never crack the manual after 1975? Feels like there's a difference between knowingly ignoring a 30 year old deadline and just having no idea the thing was supposed to be swapped out at all. I guess either way the harness was still ancient and he was still signing off on it, but the thought process matters for how bad it really was. Did he ever mention knowing about the life limit or was it more like he just fixed what broke and called it a day?

My cousin in Japan can't stream half the shows I recommend to him now.

Oh man, this brings back a story my friend Sarah went through last year! She's super into native plants and saw this seller listing a plant as "rare Oregon white trillium" when it was clearly a hybrid from a nursery down in California. She posted a friendly correction with side-by-side photos and links to the state's native plant society page, and the mod literally deleted her whole account the next day, no warning or anything. Turns out that seller was the mod's cousin or something, and the whole group was basically a front for their online store. My buddy spent weeks trying to appeal it and eventually just gave up and started her own little plant swap group instead.
