Thanks, that's helpful. Something about it looked off. I'm gonna try that medical one above. I still completely love it and I can now spend hours at that bench without discomfort or annoyance. Game change, and cheap.

Someone just told me to look for "medical stool" or similar. This is the first hit, and looks good. Wide wheelbase, great-looking wheels, and low enough (many of the shop stools are too tall). https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C486GVFJ Comparison with my stool: Wheelbase <15, seat 12, height range 15-20.

As is too often the case, the garbage products at $40 are...garbage. And something just better is $500. I really want a small mechanic stool that is better than this, but am not spending $400-600 for Vyper. Anything in between? What annoys me about mine is the small wheelbase, being tippy, and the small/hard wheels catching on expansion joints. I mostly use this on the driveway concrete, sometimes in the epoxy garage (also still has joints). I'm half inclined to just buy high end wheels and see how that goes, but could be wasted money. I want low and flat so I can sit/get up from any direction, working on motorcycles, bicycles, cars. I feel like maybe someone here has this one? But it doesn't look all that wide/stable, wheels look small-ish. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D5S7WTZB This is wide with good wheels (50% larger wheelbase than mine): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D5HG9X9Q

Dog cheese. Just like the factory farmed birds for the dogs, no way we humans would eat that. We wrap a pill in it. I'm not even happy about buying either for the dogs, but, I can't rule everything in the house. I do make her fill out a PO for it.

You mean, like her making dog food? That too, both are used. But shopping? Man's work, since it's important to do it right. And cooking for the humans? Me. Also, this actually measured only 2357 grams, and I'm not sure how pissed to be, or whether to complain. And yes, of course we do chemistry/cooking in metric. She cooks dog food at some exact ratios. Nice thread hijack. You started it.

I have this bent leg kick that seems to work ok even on the bad knee side. Also there's no shame in grabbing a foot with your hand, that's what I have to do when there's a 40# bag of dog food on the seat anyway.

I changed the cabin air filter in the Rivian yesterday. Maintenance done for the year. One of the push pins had to be pushed in twice to seat, that sucked.

Unfortunately a big part of the reason that they are well featured and yet inexpensive *IS* the tie-in with their garbage. I am the product. This won't change. When Apple or some other non-asshole company makes good ones, I'm there.

Speaking of which, I just now completed the second of several research studies that they are doing on what is good or bad about the glasses. They probably hate my top answer, which is that tying it to the Meta ecosystem is their worst and most limiting thing.

I've opted into 100% sharing and analysis. I only record things I would voluntarily post in public.

Maybe you're not into either the looks or the form factor, but I'm finding this setup to be SOOO damn useful for anything. Even big shopping trips. I've got two sizes and swap them around. The liners are mildly insulated and help with keeping food cold for grocery runs.

Oh right, sorry, I forgot you have a generator. So yeah, I think the Micro should do all you need. For me, it was absolutely the difference between starting 10% of the time, or starting 98% of the time on the generator. I don't recall the brand, it looked just like that, and sold as "universal up to X tons."

Are you fucking with him?
