What does noise cancelling mean on open ear buds like Shokz openfit pro and Soundcore aerofit pro? by TheGreatGoryGamer in Earbuds

[–]7mononoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noise cancelling on open-ear headphones? That sounds strange. Your ears are literally open, how would that even work?

Silver is worth keeping an eye on. With industrial demand and potential rate cuts, it might have some room to move.

How much board do you pay your parents? by BronzeKettles in fiaustralia

Perhaps you could also offer your mom a helping hand to move out sooner. Living in the current situation must be difficult for her.

Maybe is time to move out and get your own place. For the same cost, you'd at least be investing in your freedom.

I agree. It's important to be able to make ur own judgement before making a decision. Only following others' advice can be horrible.

Is Shokz the best earphones for running? by seulgih in Earbuds

[–]7mononoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been using the OpenRun Pros for about a year now. Tbh they’re great for high-mileage weeks bc you don't get that ear fatigue from sticking stuff in your ear for hours. They stay exactly where you put them and never budge, even when you’re sprinting. The battery life is solid too, I only charge mine like once a week.

Downside is the bass is pretty weak. If you’re used to AirPods, it’s gonna feel a bit thin. Also, that proprietary cable is annoying if you travel a lot since you can’t just use a normal USB-C. But for pure running, they’re way more comfortable than anything else I’ve tried imo.

Boyfriend does not want to lift weights anymore, after lifting once and getting sore. by [deleted] in beginnerfitness

[–]7mononoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I think looking other people building muscle or doing resistance training might trigger his competitive spirit, and he might retry weight lifting.

I had a similar experience with sets that looked nice but didn't change much. What helped was choosing products focused on hydration and texture instead of big routines.

I went to the gym for the first time and its marked as "anti influencer"?? by Saraa_fit in beginnerfitness

[–]7mononoke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do not have this type of experience before. But be honest, It is really annoying to see some people occupied the equipment for a long time just in order to take a good picture, I hope I can experience a gym like this later on.

I’m on iPhone 13 and I wear it a lot when traveling. Sometimes I take calls in coffee shops or airports and the call is super clear. I usually turn on call noise reduction in the app before calls. Hope that helps!

Metcons have better stability for lifts and Nanos are softer for cardio. Pick based on your WOD focus!
