I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn’t work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.

Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!

It went from stupid purchase to something I’d gladly replace if it broke.

    Charged to see your Fitbit data? What does that mean? I have no problem going back years across various devices.

      They hide their in depth graphs and readings from you unless you pay for premium. You can get basic data going back years, but if you want to know how long it took you to enter REM sleep for example, your only option is trying to guess using their vague graph charts, or pay premium for the in depth graphs.

        Did they change it recently maybe? I got one earlier this year and could see my sleep data before getting premium (just using the free 6 months now).

          You get sleep data, but you get more sleep data with premium. If you don’t have premium, it completely hides the area from you where the new charts are and the only way to see them is to dig up your past premium data. But even then you can only see for months that you had access to premium, it doesn’t give you the data if you don’t pay, despite it constantly taking all the same readings as normal.

          I suppose it’s not technically true they’re keeping your data from you. What they’re actually doing is refusing to crunch additional numbers for you and show you nice graphs for them if you don’t pay. Normally this wouldn’t bug me, but since it’s already taking all my data and and since I know crunching those numbers doesn’t cost 10$ a month when I already paid 150$ for it to do exactly what they’re trying to charge me more for it to do…well, now I’m just rambling 😄 it bugs me is all, and I’d gladly try another manufacturer if I could find something more competitive.

          I’m already on my 4th Fitbit in 6 years from them breaking (one of them the screen separated from the device. Just peeled out), so I don’t exactly have confidence in their build quality anyways.
