Do you know of an alternative that allows custom music and sounds? I haven't found anything that works well.

Jeez, were one of the two devices 10 years old? That hasn't been my experience for a long time (except the duplex audio issue. I can't believe it's still terrible.)

Then again, I mostly use BT for the convenience. Being able to do yard work with zero wires is amazing.

Just put the name in the title. We don't need the clickbait here.

Nice. I wish I had one... Oh well, back to the microwave.

Yes, I know that many US homes have 220V outlets for electric ranges or water heaters but most outlets are not and the ones that are are not typically accessible for general use. It's silly to say "240V 60Hz is actually the US standard" in this context since most US residents aren't going to have one accessible as a special outlet just for a kettle. Or if they do, they better tell their guests before they accidentally plug in a blender.

Edit: As an aside, I used to work at a restaurant that had a 240V outlet accessible for a commercial belt-driven toaster. One day I decided it was too slow and plugged in a regular slot toaster when nobody was looking. Oh man, It glowed scary bright! I only felt comfortable using for a few seconds at a time, but it handled English muffins like a champ.

The most amazing thing about this is that the plant has never seen a hummingbird.

Think about it. The plant has no eyes nor the ability to change its own leaves. What must have happened? Maybe an ancestor had leaves that randomly, vaguely resembled a bird? Perhaps the descendants that happened to look more like hummingbirds were then pollinated more often than the rest?

Nature is so fucking crazy and I love it.
