    Bedroom closet is like 5ft by 9’-6” with 9ft ceiling. Main thing will be getting double height hanging storage. I have so many shirts. I was thinking $1k-$1500 which is why I am waiting till I really can’t stand it anymore.

    Our closet is roughly 5’ x 15’ and everything in it was $1600ish. The more stuff you need hung, the cheaper, obviously.

    If you go IKEA, keep in mind you’ll have to get the deeper frames. They’re the only ones designed for horizontal bars. The shorter depth frames have the clothing department store tiered hanging hardware which isn’t space efficient for what you want.

    You might try a couple different suppliers if you can get them. The ones I bought definitely aren’t flush but the raised bubble still looks a lot better than the black holes in my opinion.

    I would say when you have more shoes than your wife unless your wife only has about 10 pair. Basically, around 20 pair should be a hard cap for most men. Any more than that and the man is probably the one in the relationship that responds to the question where do you want to eat with “I don’t care you chose” followed immediately by “not there” after 20 different restaurants are named. Then after eating and asking whats wrong, they respond with “nothing, I’m fine.”

    I’ve had Lifx for a few years and have slowly started switching to Hue. When there’s an issue with lifx they’re not as easy to reconnect. Have had a couple Lifx go bad also.

    I have seen some things recently that suggested the benefits of doing such. I tried it a couple times and after an hour or 2 of tossing and turning and feelings as if I should check my self into an inpatient mental facility for attempting such, I have realized that I will never receive the benefits of wearing socks to sleep.

    For those following closely, science has now determined the best sleep benefits are to be achieved while sleeping naked, with socks on.

    Well I have tried it as well and they just irritate my hairy man feet. But maybe it's because I'm using cotton socks like a goddamn idiot? We have people who import pen ink and cure their own meats. You trying to tell me we don't have a sock connoisseur?

    I would consider myself a sock enthusiast, but purely of the outdoor variety for activities such as backpacking and hiking etc. Wool socks are def worth it and over the years have slowly phased out a lot of my cotton socks. Now for sleeping I have no clue unless Im in a tent.

    I'll go on the record and say that any sock can technically be a sleeping sock. I will report my findings once amazon determines that the dfw area is safe to enter

    I don't know how to tag everyone that was curious for my thoughts on the Remarkable - https://remarkable.com/
    I'll post a more in depth review if there's a desire for it.

    I'm really enjoying it so far.
    It is been extremely helpful for keeping me organized.
    I used to have random thoughts/important notes spread across numerous notebooks. I found myself wasting time searching for stuff and often just rewriting ideas or having to retype up notes into our CRM to stay organized.
    Paper just ends up in a pile or file...

    Previously I would make notes on a notepad. Search (flip through pages) for those notes at a later date. Then retype the notes into our company CRM.
    Now I basically write everything in the remarkable. At the end of the day (likely week in the future). I spend about 10 seconds per note copying the information into the correct folder.
    If we have a planned marketing meeting. I open the individual folder and all of my notes from the previous meeting/discussion are there and there's no need to organize folders.

    Each initiative from strategic plans, to individual employee has its own folder/notebook.

    As an unorganized guy that needed help the $600 was well worth it.

    Important disclaimer: I'm not sure if the "paper feel"/usability is worth the cost compared to using an ipad.
    The actual pdf sending/handwriting to typed conversion isn't incredible. I know the fact that it is just a Notebook is probably a good thing for me..

    I believe Sony are supposed to shift to that eventually but still on older android tv interface for now.
