Air roots: bury or not?

I’ve seen contradictory information about air roots and now I’m not sure. My orchid had extensive root rot, which I’ve trimmed away. It now has just one long healthy soil root left and numerous air roots. Is it ok to put some (not all) of the air roots into the pot and fill it with orchid bark? Some say the air roots will adapt, others say they will eventually rot.

How soon until you see any signs, like blood or poop?

I've been through this before so I know what to look for. I've been getting bitten exactly once a night on my neck. Once on my face and on my arm. Nothing on the back, torso or legs. It's been a couple weeks. I changed to all white bedding and sleep in a white T-shirt. I check every morning for blood and poop stains. Nothing so far. My bed frame has no headboard and it's black, so hard to see poop stains or anything.

I'm not sure what's biting me. I haven't travelled or stayed in a hotel lately, but I do take public transport so you never know. The last time I had bedbugs was after a trip. I got bitten weekly, not daily.

My question is: How long after you accidentally introduced bedbugs before you started to see blood or poop?

Any tips for 7 am flight out of BER?

I haven't travelled in a while so just wanted to ask if there are any pitfalls for catching a 7 am flight out of BER. Flying first to Zurich, then USA. If I need to be 3 hours in advance, would have to get to the airport by 4 am. Can I take the S85 at 3 am?

Erweiterte Melderegisterauskunft - is erweiterte Meldebescheinigung the same thing?

Is there a difference between these two things?

I already have an erweiterte Meldebescheinigung with my address from the past 5 years as well as my nationality, date and place of birth. If I apply for an erweiterte Melderegisterauskunft, wouldn't I be getting the same thing?

I've been sewing for several years and have troubleshot most of my issues. But one thing that I've never resolved is that when straight stitching, the top seam always looks neat while underneath looks ... different. Not necessarily bunchy, messy, uneven, loopy or otherwise problematic. Just different. I've tried all tension/presser foot settings, different thread and needles. I've cleaned the machine. It's pretty consistent. The machine is an older Husqvarna Viking Interlude 445. Would getting it serviced change anything?
