Watch to the end, it is *chef's kiss* perfection.

Edit to add: did you know that the Electoral Commission will snail mail you bulk pamphlets to hand out encouraging others to vote, FOR FREE? I learned this when they turned up at our door after my lovely wife ordered a bunch.
my iPhone 13 Pro will not let Siri work at all. Side button does nothing, “Hey Siri” does nothing despite both being turned on.
Have already tried turning Siri off and on again, and the same with the ”Hey Siri” switch.
Both function fine on my Apple Watch 11 which is also running the latest public beta software.
Anyone aware of a fix, or do I have to wait for the next version of the public beta?

Hey everyone,
I have found that our Urban Arrow Family does not perform as well when it is not loaded. When I am riding it empty on the way to school to pick up kids or on the way to the supermarket, there is a weird rattling coming from the cargo bucket, and the front seems to have less friction with the ground. Any ideas for solving this?
I have considered the idea of getting a lockable metal box to sit in the front for carrying things we'll always need, like spare tires and inner tubes and bike repair tools. If I was to bolt something like this at the front of the bike, would it help noticeably?

Look out the window in the Hutt, is it snowing where you are too?
Hello, our third-hand 2019 Urban Arrow Family has shaken a screw loose in one of the seatbelts.
The owner’s manual does not say which one I need to buy to make my kid safe. It says “contact your Urban Arrow dealer.“
Problem is, there is not one of those in over 2,200 km because it was imported to NZ (where there are not shops selling UA) from the Netherlands by previous owner who moved here. Nearest one is in Australia, and it would be nice to walk into a hardware store and say “I need [x] screw and washer.”
Help please?
I didn't ask if they serve Lipton brand drinks.

335 stickers plus $50 to get all of the nine items with the maximum stickers. At $20 shopping spend per sticker, and assuming you don’t buy any of the bonus sticker items, that is a total spend of $6,750.
Over the ~11 weeks the promo is running (assuming they don’t do one of those extended endings that they did last time) it comes to ~$613 on shopping per week.
The minimum stickers plus cash amount for comparison, again assuming no bonus stickers, is 189 stickers and $199, coming to a total spend of $3,979.
Yes, I do maths for fun. Do I have a problem?

Hey all,
I used to have problems with my speakers dropping connection all the time etc. like you see many people on here talking about. About six months ago, I set up a wired Ethernet setup which runs to three out of my seven speakers.
All the cutting out and losing connections just stopped overnight. If you can run ethernet to even a large minority of your system as it is in my case, it solves the problems like that *snaps fingers*.
My setup in more detail: both of the office/bedroom One and One SL, and the Beam in my Lounge 5.1 setup, for which the Sub Mini and two Play:3’s as rears are still wireless. The Bathroom/Laundry room One is also running wireless, which is furthest from the router and used to be almost impossible to keep connected for one whole song, now plays completely flawlessly, I assume cause it’s closer to a speaker that is connected on Ethernet.
