Thrifters/Antiquers, what are your favorite finds? in c/askbeehaw@beehaw.org

So far my luck with thrifted clothing has been abysmal besides the leather jacket. But I'm hoping I'll get luckier the more I try.

What is a hobby nobody else has done that you want to start? in c/askbeehaw@beehaw.org

Deep water version of your every day metal detecting. I know some companies already do salvage reclamation/research, but I'm talking about going hunting for smaller trinkets and seemingly "worthless" items in the eyes of corporations and research centers.

Only thing stopping me is I really don't want to be Oceangate 2 lol.

Thrifters/Antiquers, what are your favorite finds? (beehaw.org)
 

I've recently gotten into the thrifting/antiquing bug myself and have lucked out on some amazing items. (by my standards) What are your favorite finds and why?

My current favorite is a "Milan Leather" leather jacket with a UK/Ireland phone number for customer service on it's care tag. (I live in the USA for context) I snagged it for $28 dollars and can't wait to wear it this winter.

If anyone knows more about that Milan Leather brand I'd love to know more about when that company was around so I can date just how old the jacket is.

Privacy focused health apps (beehaw.org)
 

I've been recently looking into watching my weight and diet again. I had used Noom in the past and really liked their services, but then it came out that they were essentially wiretapping everyone. It seems like every health focused app is selling health information now.

Does anyone know of any good privacy focused health services? Currently I think my only options are logging my calories in a paper book lol.
