Ignore this post unless you want to laugh at the horrific taste of some insanely wealthy fuck from Ann Arbor https://www.redfin.com/MI/Ann-Arbor/414-S-Main-St-48104/unit-10/home/99381131
You're definitely right about that. I read a review of the Duo and the version wirecutter reviewed last year had a non-removable silicone ring, so you'd be SOL for for cleaning or replacement which makes it a non-starter for me. And yet it has a 4.6 on amazon. I'm not sure that's changed in the latest model.
edit - they may have made the silicone gasket replaceable for the pressure cooker lid, which is good. Reviews say the separate lid for the air fryer is quite bulky, however. Which for me anyway defeats the point of switching how we do things at our house.
Thinking about "upgrading" our workhorse Instapot Ultra for one of the combo pressure cookers/air fryers that I recently learned are in existence. Anyone have any experience with those?
So since the agencies are under the same umbrella agency, that somehow waves away legit concerns with DHS interfering with domestic travel by obtaining every single person's travel plans in advance? You realize these are the same people who have worked tirelessly to keep the FBI from obtaining ATF gun ownership records from going to the FBI even though they're "part of the same agency?"
Obtaining every American's travel records is somehow "less intrusive" than street patrols? I think "intrusive" is perhaps not the word you're looking for. Even so, your argument relies on false equivalence to wave away blatant civil rights violations. Whether one is more or less instrusive is however besides the point. They're both illegal and shameful and to excuse one by minimizing the other is absurd.
The article asserts they're looking for people "with deportation orders," but a) offers no proof, b) if you believe they're limiting usage of the info they have, you're wishcasting, and c) they're working toward revoking citizenship of naturalized citizens so they can deport them - so this breach will only get worse and more painful. This is a massive intrusion and frankly I'm shocked you'd minimize it.
edit - ff to 2:35 if you don't want to watch the entire thing but do want to see her taste concrete.

S5 or S7?
The electronics in one of the toto seats I bought 6 years ago are going haywire, constantly spraying to clean and the lid closing and opening. S5 is the comparable replacement model for me and seems to have the best bang for the buck.
For anyone think about ordering a toto - this company is having a extra 18% off sale until 12/19, and they only charge sales tax on orders to CA and PA.
