What the Roman poet Horace can teach us about how to live a life of contentment
What are the secrets to a contented life? One of Rome's greatest and most influential poets, Horace (65-8 BCE) has been cherished by readers for more than two thousand years not only for his wit, style, and reflections on Roman society, but also for his wisdom about how to live a good life--above all else, a life of contentment in a world of materialistic excess and personal pressures. In How to Be Content, Stephen Harrison, a leading authority on the poet, provides fresh, contemporary translations of poems from across Horace's works that continue to offer important lessons about the good life, friendship, love, and death. Living during the reign of Rome's first emperor, Horace drew on Greek and Roman philosophy, especially Stoicism and Epicureanism, to write poems that reflect on how to live a thoughtful and moderate life amid mindless overconsumption, how to achieve and maintain true love and friendship, and how to face disaster and death with patience and courage. From memorable counsel on the pointlessness of worrying about the future to valuable advice about living in the moment, these poems, by the man who famously advised us to carpe diem, or "harvest the day," continue to provide brilliant meditations on perennial human problems. Featuring translations of, and commentary on, complete poems from Horace's Odes, Satires, Epistles, and Epodes, accompanied by the original Latin, How to Be Content is both an ideal introduction to Horace and a compelling book of timeless wisdom.Binding Type: Hardcover

Great engineering for amazing price
Color: Black
This is the deal of deals. The signal goes through my oven door with zero problems. The sensor inserts neatly into the controller slot. Nice. But that's not all. This thing is Gold Lite, and has the transmission frequency that is 10X better than Bluetooth. The App is probably same as the 4X higher priced Gold Edition, which is worth the price of admission. whose only advantage is that the sensor is good for 752F instead of 932F (yes the descriptions says good for 932F, but Lin the photo it says 752F) . The 932F is not anywhere good enough for my radiant ceramic grill, which goes up above 1300F anyway. So I saved a bunch of money and have something that does everything I need and no more.
For the price, this is 5 star

No-brainer
Color: Black
Works as expected and looks premium for the price. App is very functional and easy to use.
Thought it was silly to have a paired thermometer but this convinced me otherwise as it’s very fun to use and it gives more inputs to how you’re cooking your stuff (eg it has multiple sensors covering different parts of the meat)

Broke in less than a week.
We got this less than a week ago and the handle is already broken. No one dropped it or hit it with a hammer. It broke being washed in the sink.

Much more than a pizza maker
This is more than a pizza maker. There are 15 different settings that makes this a great air fryer. I will probably not use all of the features but it gives me options for if I choose to. The size was a little surprising because it is bigger than expected, however I just replaced it with my old air fryer. This has great levels of heat, easy to clean and gives alot of versatility.
