I don't know for sure that this applies federally, but in my municipality you have to make estimated payments throughout the year if you don't have them deducted from your pay. My employer made a mistake and didn't withhold local taxes, and when I paid in a lump sum a fine was assessed.

I had Neatos for years. They worked great until they didn't; I always had to do a lot of troubleshooting. Now I have a Wyze vacuum, which I think is a rebrand of a larger Chinese brand. It doesn't clean as well as the Neatos, but it's had no problems so far, and it was much cheaper.

There's plenty of reviews out there if you want to get into it, and it does seem like some of the more expensive ones out there have some really nice features. But if you've been on the fence for a while my advice is to pick a well reviewed affordable one and go for it.

Once you have something cleaning your floors you'll have more time to research which one is the ultimate vacuum.

I just like the colors. If there's only going to be two I think those are solid choices.

I do like the color options

Losing a friend is so hard. It affected me in ways I never expected. Family is easier in some ways.

The kind people are out there, but they're harder to see sometimes, especially on the internet. Hang in there, and be kind to yourself.

These machines shouldn't be activated when people are within their operating area. I know in the US it would be prohibited by law, though I've personally seen it done a few times. So the robot wouldn't necessarily even be programmed to differentiate between different types of objects in its area if it was only expected to interact with boxes.

They're wheelie bars, to limit how far the front wheels come off the ground when it accelerates.

Cap(saicin) cramps! More water beforehand might help, but I think the only way to really get rid of that response is to condition your body to the level of capsaicin you're putting in it. Even then, if you eat enough it's going to trigger a response.

It's pretty normal to get cramps from a food that is much spicier than you're used to. I think that's what OP is implying with Indian food.

I like spicy food so it usually doesn't bother me, but if I put a couple ghost peppers in my food I'm going to feel it later.

Lol, that's why I'm here too. I've had enough.

Can't go wrong with 519A. 5700K dedomed would be just above 4000K if you're looking for nicer tint.
