Best inflatable kayak

I'm just researching at this stage as Iam injured with burstitis so won't be kayaking for a very long time..

If money was no issue, what would be the best inflatable kayak on the market today?

My main features I like in a kayak are that it's fast, turns easy, doesn't spin in alittle wind, durable and good quality.

Thanks !

Cortisone injection into shoulder

I have moderate bursitis and had a cortisone injection 2 weeks ago.

Pain is insane, worse than before the injection.

Is this normal, does it go away?

I have a physio, but the cost is insane.

How to fix my hair?

I have wavy, fine fizz prone hair, grey hairs which end up as flyaways.

I've read alot of people say to only brush hair while wet in shower as part of a routine with aheap conditioner.

(, I used fruitia shampoo then conditioner,)

I don't comb after it drys it's hairdryer diffuser dried ot natural. I then put a very small amount of John Frieda Frizz eze through second half, and just the very last residue over the flyaways on scalp.

I tried that today, one half was kinda ok. The other half looked all stringy, like when you go swim at a local pool with chlorine.

So it just looks like I've taken a swim, and not bothered to brush. But I did with conditioner and a wide tooth comb untill rinsed out.

Pillow cases are cotton until I can get satin.

How do I fix?

Thanks.

SD cards and game BackLogs

So i have 2 switch 2 games. Nba2k26 and Mario Kart World.

Because of the cost of the switch and games I won't be getting any more games for at least a year.

I have a wishlist of many switch 1 games, and no doubt switch 2 once more come out.

But due to costs I want to start being more restrictive with game purchases, finish what I have completely, then only have 2 -4 games at a time going on my S2. ( Animal crossing and MK8, MKW would likely stay on there as I play those alot.

I have plenty of space on my switch without an SD card, but cannot play NBA 2k26 without an SD card. I know people want MORE space, but I would of been happy with a smaller cheaper SD card than 256gd, to have enough for this game.

Then once I finish breath of the wild, totk, etc that would free up space for other games with similar space needs.

Paying $69 for a card to play NBA2K26 seems steep, and it's frustrating.

I will eventually get one, but just ranting, lol.

Shoulder bursitis

I can't afford the 2 times a week Physio my physiotherapist has recommended.

I've used up my free sessions, and just had a cortisone injection over 12 days ago.

In a ton of pain but I'm unemployed.

I'm not on gov assistance, and I can't pay this

She says if I don't that my injury will stay like this forever.

Just wondering if others are in this situation.

Health is for the rich apparantly.

Switch 2 dock covers

I've seen these covers that you can get that go over the faceplate part of the dock.

It's designed to help stop scratches and add design/ colour to the switch.

Anyone else use these? And can recommend what website?

Do these cause any additional heat to the switch?

Just in two minds wether to get one or not.

I'm ocd about scratches lol 😆

Lite Buzzing sound.

I have upgraded to a Switch 2, and was thinking of selling my Lite, as we have two of them, and only need one Lite.

The problem is lately it makes a buzzing sound. I noticed it while playing Animal Crossing, it will make this buzz/ humming sound while game boots up, goes to menu. After awhile playing it does eventually calm down to where you can't notice it.

If I get a air gun thing and try and blast out any dust in vents, would that help?

Has anyone had this happen, and have a solution?

I've looked up getting it fixed but then it would cost almost most of what I'd get trying to sell it.

Good quality joycon covers

I bought some from a local gaming shop, but they didn't fit properly, even tho said switch 2. The retail guy tested and thought it could be faulty as he had trouble too.

Thinking of just getting some on Amazon or something.

Any suggestions?

Just want to protect them from wear.

Knicks championship 🏆 Pennant.

I'm a Knicks fan from Australia, and so happy they won. I also follow Rangers and Yankees.

I want to get some Knicks championship merchandise, but it hasn't arrived in stores here yet. I was told another month.

Iam thinking of getting an jumper and a pennant.

I've read the official black and white Pennant isn't good quality?

Plus I rather one with orange/blue design,

Just wondering what others bought, and is it good quality?

I've checked out Etsy Amazon and eBay so far .

On a side note:

After Knicks won I was so excited, and bought NBA 2k26 switch 2, not realising the massive file size, (yes I should of read before hand)

It was on sale, and logic went out the window before reading it.

Anyway, will play with Championship team one day, when I can afford a SD card.

Go Knicks.

Can't download from eshop after purchasing it. Slow internet.

So I just recently purchased an Switch 2 and NBA2K26, I have some games transferred from my lite as well.

When I tried to get my game to do the download from Eshop, it comes up that it's 7hrs download time.

My internet is pretty slow, but I can't really change that atm due to cost.

I spoke to a game shop worker who told me it's a massive sized game, and I would need faster internet, and a separate SD card.

I just want to find out from others here, what size gamecard do you use?

And what speed internet is best?

Switch 2 ergonomics, wrist pain.

I have only had my Switch 2 afew days.

Haven't played long hrs or anything, just played afew races of Mario kart world, some Zelda, and my wrists are caning bad.

I want to make it more ergonomic to play at least 2 hrs, before having a break from it.

I've read about different grips like Satisfye, Savage Raven, Play vital.

I'm wondering if there's anyone who has tried these, and which one is the best?

I have chronic pain, and never had too much problem with my Switch lite as it's small , but having pain with Switch 2 handheld.

I haven't tried docked with the grip it came with yet, but will try that first before spending anything more.
(Spent too much 🫠)

Sensitive skin shampoo for fine hair.

I have wavy, frizzy hair.

One drop of moisture in the air, and it frizzes so much I look like I've touched one of those sciency static electricity things.

The shampoo and conditioner I bought cheap was making my hair really nice, but I think I'm allergic to it, as my hands have eczema all over. I'm allergic to alot of chemicals I guess.

Any shampoo/ conditioner recommendations for sensitive skin that's good for fine hair?

From Australia if that helps.

Looking for New York Rangers jersey acnh.

I posted earlier about losing my island and all my progress.

Iam ok with having to start again, not thrilled but I can start again.

The main item which feels like a massive loss is the New York Rangers jersey I got from a balloon 🎈 drop afew weeks ago.

It was a random drop, and after playing since 2021, I was so happy to find that.

If anyone gets a New York Rangers jersey in new Horizons and doesn't follow them/ want it, I would be happy to have it, and I can trade you whatever I can in return once Iam set up again. Can help with weeding or whatever needed,

Thanks.

***Update, I got my island back!!***

Nintendo said it couldn't be found, but somehow when I went to start a new game, it comes up Resident found!

I have everything back!. Thanks for all the support guys***

Island is gone.

I just bought an Switch 2 and the store person said when I transfer data between consoles, everything will go across.

It hasn't!

Save file not playing on either Switch, just goes to the beginning sequence.

5 years of work, gone.

Had my island looking great and all the characters I wanted. Finished museum fossils, most fish and creatures.

Just gutted...

Leaking tap

For awhile now my kitchen tap has been leaking, Just slowly drizzling out water drops.

When the washing machine is taking in water from the other side of the house, this tap makes a loud clunk! CLUNK!sound.

A plumber is probably needed, but wondering if anyone here has had this happen, and know what is happening?

I haven't tried anything myself, as do not know how too.

Australia, climate is cold/ winter.

Thanks.

Trying to find a switch 2

I have been going to shop to shop to find a switch 2. All sold out.

I know it's because of price hikes etc.

Anyone else had this problem in Melbourne?

Only option I have is to get the Pokopia bundle. For extra cost.

Not really keen to have to visit 100 shops in Melbourne just to find it.
