Are there any car inspection stations around that are open after 5?

Or does everything shut down at 5 because of the computer system.

Coterie Diapers causing rash

Hi,

I wanted to share that Coterie diapers size 4 has twice given my baby a rash that looks like a burn. I thought it was a fluke but we bought them again when we ran out of our normal brand and overnight she had a horrible rash, and then we had one diaper left it got better, we put her back in Coterie and it was worse.

I used them earlier in her life without an issue, then used Millie Moon because they were cheaper and then they changed the composition of Millie Moon and we had a milder version of this issue.

I have never had a problem with Eco by Naty and that's all we buy now, we get them shipped.

I know there have been posts about this, but I wanted to give anyone a warning if you're dealing with a diaper rash and using these diapers. I also contacted the company.

Currently we have two computers in desperate need of battery replacements:

  1. 2021 Macbook Pro (M1), 14 inch, 16GB
  • User is me, used for full-time work, photo editing, video editing
  • Runs speedily enough on Monterey
  • Battery replacement is $250
  1. 2017 Macbook Pro, 13 inch
  • User is my husband, f/t dad, does not need complex use
  • Computer is slowing down, keyboard has been fixed a few times
  • Battery replacement is $250

I'm looking into the following options for making our computers more usable:

  1. Buy my husband an Air and replace my battery and get a year or two more out of my computer
  • Pros: I think the new Air is great, lightweight, and it's his turn for a new toy
  • Cons: maybe I have to replace my computer anyway soon, meaning I spend more overall
  • Cost: approx 1300
  1. Replace my battery, give my computer to my husband, and buy a new Macbook pro
  • Pros: Extends the life of my current computer, gives a very good model computer to my husband, and gives me a snazzy upgrade that may last years
  • Cons: I don't feel that insistent need to upgrade at the moment, cost
  • Cost: $2000 - $2500

Some factors to consider:

  • I don't think I care about waiting for the M6 but maybe I don't know what I will be missing
  • We really care about screen quality, and have weird eyes, and I like the screens we have now (I assume the Neo screen is worse). A little afraid the newer screens coming up will not work for us as well.
  • We mainly don't want to be tethered to chargers and I want to remove a lot of the various plugs we have for computers around the house due to having a toddler. So battery life is an issue.
  • We both have 12.9 inch ipads that are put away due to the toddler

Any thoughts about which route I should go?
