Interference is likely but many monitors also switch on infrared night vision after dark, which spikes power draw and can make a weak USB adapter or long cable sag and reboot. Use the original or a higher-amp power supply with a short, good cable, and turn off Eco/VOX modes so a quiet room doesn’t look like a dropout. If it’s on Wi‑Fi, lock 2.4 GHz to channel 1, 6, or 11 at 20 MHz, push other devices to 5 GHz, and elevate the camera and parent unit away from microwaves or cordless phone bases.

Co-sign on recurring faces and add one thing that helped me keep momentum: be the organizer for a tiny group chat and send a calendar hold right after you click with someone (“same time next Tuesday for a library co-work?”). Errand hangs are gold on a budget - invite people to do groceries together and fold laundry, or take a sunset walk, so it’s zero-prep and easy to repeat. Also, create small buy-in so folks return - ask them to bring a deck of cards, a snack to share, or a playlist, which turns an acquaintance into a teammate.

For watercolor-like acrylics & pick a non-toxic set with strong pigment that dilutes smoothly with water, and you can find decent packs under twenty. Use soft synthetic brushes in medium round, large round, and flat on sturdy paper you can pre-wet for blooms, layer your washes, and mist the palette to keep paint wet.

I've got a similar issue with my vacuum picking up tons of dust from renovation work not pet hair, and at 55 I like keeping things low-effort. What I do is unplug and remove the filters and tap them softly outdoors to shake off debris. Rinse with room-temperature water and letting it soak a minute if it's grimy, then gentle squeezes to remove water. Air dry thoroughly, often takes a full day. I check the manual for my model to confirm it's washable, to be safe. This method revived my suction power without any damage, and I do it regularly now. Simple, effective. If yours has a HEPA filter, sometimes those need tapping, not full washing, so double-check that part.

From experience - Also look at whether the HYSA sits under the same login as your checking so you can move money instantly and whether the bank still enforces savings-transfer limits. For CDs, check if interest can be withdrawn monthly without penalty, if partial withdrawals are allowed, and the grace period before auto-renew so you're not stuck at a lower rate. Finally, favor banks with consistent, non-teaser rates and make sure you stay within FDIC/NCUA insurance limits.

This is thermal expansion where the metal moves more than the coating so the lip and corners let go, made worse by steam and rubbing. Clean and dry quickly without long soaks or harsh cleaners, dry it warm and wipe a thin oil film, then seek a replacement or use a liner or small rack to take the wear.
