 Why is my blender making a grinding noise?

 Hey there, sorry to hear about your that model troubles, especially since it's part of your daily routine. grinding noise could be from the bearings wearing out after all those years of use. Try taking the that model apart carefully, if you're comfortable with that, and check that model any loose parts or debris inside the base. Lubricating the moving parts with a bit of food-grade oil might help smooth things out too. If that doesn't work, maybe borrow a friend's that model temporarily while you figure it out.
I've fixed a few appliances this way, and it often saves a trip to the repair shop. Good luck, hope you get back to your smoothies soon.

 I had the same problem in a small apartment and the fix was mostly timing and boundaries. My camera guided bot missed cords in dim light so I switched the schedule to daytime. If you prefer evenings, flip the room lights on so it can see. Set generous keep out areas around the entertainment corner and the lamp cluster and always start from the dock so the map lines up exactly.
I also changed how it behaves near wires. I run standard suction rather than max around the TV corner so it is less grabby, and I coil charger slack then clip it up the table leg. The super skinny phone cables get unplugged or tossed in a bowl before a run. Tiny change big difference.
 Which budget 27-inch 1440p monitor has the clearest text for coding?

 +1 to that. If you’re shopping alternates the HP X27q/X27qs, Acer Nitro XV272U, and Dell S2721DGF are reliably crisp for code with standard RGB subpixel layouts and height/VESA, while BGR panels like the Gigabyte M27Q are best avoided. On Windows, run ClearType and keep the monitor’s sharpness at neutral (around 50) with 125% scaling; on macOS, leave font smoothing on and turn off any “super resolution” or edge-enhance in the OSD.
