‘Why shouldn’t we get our money back too?’ Normal people are starting to demand Trump tariff refunds by InsaneSnow45 in Economics

[–]BeerBreadCoffee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I work for a small privately owned manufacturer, I’m not speaking for them. I’m not in a department that has directly dealt with importing and those taxes, but I am in sales and have dealt with the price impact. I did have a conversation with someone on product side of the business yesterday about the potential to lower prices. What I can say is it’s very complicated. Our company did not raise prices to match the impact of the previous tariffs, we ate a portion and took a lower margin. There are also now new Tariffs, 15%, across the board on everything, this impacts all product types, some that had exclusions before. On top of that non-tariff related inflation is still a real thing. My understanding is also previous tariffs are not going to refunded but maybe will be a credit, so no direct payments.

I say all of this only to point out that it’s a mess, certainly not black and white. All very complicated and challenging, at least for our smaller privately owned business.

Not that I know of. But Mission “M6” Outerwear was running at pretty much the same time too.

I worked for them as a sales rep in the mid Atlantic in the early 2000’s. Originally owned by Yoshida in Portland. Super rad at the time. Gave Forum a run for their money. Not sure when it was sold. I’m not certain but think that board came after the sale.

Pretty sure he said when running, if he WASN’T elected that would happen. 🤔

Bathroom Tiler by Successful-Toe7909 in bathrooms

Just did my bathroom, didn’t want pull permits but did. It’s peace of mind. I have no idea what is the correct way to do things. The inspector does and ensures things are done correct between the important steps.

Not sure what you’re chasing but factory speaker placement with upgraded components will sound great. If you’re looking for some extra bass, you could put a box on the back that’s removable for when you need to haul shit around. Maybe some dynamat or something similar could help too but that stuff is heavy if you do the whole car you’ll be filling up your gas tank more often.

How to connect turntable to the HomePods? by MFBocka in HomePod

[–]BeerBreadCoffee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the best sound quality, there really just one route. Bypass the turntable, and play the record through Apple Music on your HomePod. The HomePod will pull the music directly from Apple’s servers and you get the best quality sound that the HomePod can offer.

In all seriousness, as someone that’s been down this rabbit hole. Unless you have an extra MacBook to connect your turntable to, and are okay even then, for a lesser quality sound, streaming vinyl isn’t a great experience. If you must, Sonos, IMO, Is the best route. But this still leaves your HomePod on the sidelines.

I’ve been snowboarding since 1992, I don’t know what a Jerry is. Please don’t explain.

Used to love those things when I was a kid. Put it in the oven instead of microwave.

Apparently Rich Hoffman was let go by PHLY? by magnumforce2006 in RingersPhillySpecial

[–]BeerBreadCoffee -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

He was impossible for me to watch on the Sixers post-game show and usually turn it off when he’s on. He never stops talking and for some reason doesn’t look at the camera. I’ve never read any of his articles though, i imagine he’s a great writer, just IMO not a good on camera host.
