View attachment 295561

got this footbath today, same brand but not exact model... mine also has a heating element and vibration...


my feet going to be so happy after long walks. just need to buy some epsom salt now to put in it.
My wife got something like this. Thought it was stupid until she talked me into using it once. Now it's a weekly ritual for us. Regarding Epsom Salts, don't use too much! 2 tablespoons is all you need otherwise your toe-nails will get brittle. Trust me, cracked and bleeding toe-nails are a special brand of hell!!

I was going to google instructions. I don't think I will even use 2 tablespoons, one should do it for me. I really don't need any, I just thought it would be nice is all to get the full experience. I think half a table spoon on each side should do the trick for me

I used to think sauna was stupid as well, but after doing it twice in Finland with my friends there, I was hooked... soooo refreshing. They crank it hotter than Americans do... then once your drenched in sweat, go do ice cold water rinse or jump in cold lake (I did it both ways, the lake is fun) then go back into sauna... rinse and repeat...

Problem with America is only saunas I can find on infrared, and I refuse to use those, Finnish style only, hot stones and water... or wood burning stove and water (I have experienced all 3 and will never do infrared again, its garbage in comparison).

I am going to build my own traditional Finnish sauna someday, it's not very hard. A finnish electric rock stove is about $500, and I can just run an extension cable from the house to it.

Now if I really get rich someday, I am going to do a very nice pool and 10 foot privacy fence, so I can do my own version, which will include swimming because I love swimming, then back into sauna, rinse and repeat.

Are those the actual woods used, or is it branding only?
Real laminated wood for the handle and metal front and back with wood inner on the limbs, hard to imagine medieval ages people used to pull 90 pounds on a recurve bow and have to hold it until their commander yelled "loose".

My main reason was I am using glasses and had for years plus my eyesight sadly ain't getting better so 27 even 32inch 4K was too small for me in the long run but I have tried it and also concluded with myself the hardware to run 4K I do not want to pay it's too expensive and 1440p is a good balance.

Plus I only used like half of the real estate that 4K really gave me :roll:

4K is awesome for movies and series that supports it why I got my oled tv but I do which a 1440p 27inch panel with good colour and 600 nits if not more wasn't so ridiculous expensive.
With a little lowered details and FSR at quality, I play at 4K with an overclocked 6700 XT myself. Having a 32" monitor just kicks ass. :)

A Roccat Vulcan 121 AIMO mechanical keyboard. It was on sale, ~100EUR cheaper than its original price.

I'll post a pic or two in monday when I'll go home and grab it from the post office. Got already a SMS that it was arrived.

2160p 32" 144Hz IPS should be the final piece of my main pc puzzle, and the most expensive one as well. 27" 1440p is tempting, but nah, too close (in size) to 1080p 24" I'm using for a (too) long time.

You'd need to see if what he got was another Latitude. They do cost quite a bit over a similarly specced Inspiron or Vostro.

you picked the right one!!!!

this is one thing I will never understand, those U12A fans are some of the best engineered and made fans on the planet, I just don't see why anyone would replace them.

Because my motherboard had issues with the original noctua fans, they would stop spinning short after powering on my system, I know weird but I needed fans that without 0rpm option.
