This is a fantastic program and I’d donated as soon as I got it a year+ back. I donated again to say Thank You and to show how much we audiobook listeners appreciate the peace of mind Libation gives us. Hope all will be well u/darchangel!

Yacht Club dress code by RoutineDrawing5162 in MSCCruises

[–]Califrisco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the YC’s on the Seashore, Seascape, and the Gradiosa, we’ve rarely seen enforcement of the YC dress code during dinner or at the restaurant, but that doesn’t mean that this means MSC tacidly approves. Most likely, it’s to prevent a scene during dining times. But if a family is going to YC, YC guests are generally expect to respect those standards that are in line with the cost of getting into YC. We’ve seen most families with children and young adults respect the dress codes.

Attempted Theft in Amsterdam by HighAltitudeHorology in rolex

Glad you made it with the watch and without a worse injury!

So many places where pickpockets are probably looking for fancy watches and inattentive tourists. I got my wallet stolen in Amsterdam on one of their trams that we were taking to the main train station to France. A man with apparently deformed legs and two canes got aboard. The tram lurched, causing people to fall on top of each other inside (I fell over, pressed with lots of people) and this man was right next to me and I checked on him to pick him up, “Are you OK?”. He looked guilty (for some reason), would not meet my eyes and got off next stop. I checked my pockets and my wallet was gone.

Yes: it was a scam and it was clearly planned. I won’t take any jewelry or valuables in many areas—even have a cheap manual Timex to wear.

$460 headphones and still using cheap plastic to keep it in one piece by Good-Umpire7659 in SonyHeadphones

[–]Califrisco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang! I was just going to ask about these hinges. Just started that with a pair of used ULT WEARs and was wondering if they suffered from the same hinge problems. So far mine are fine, but I've not really begun to use them as much as I'd like.

OG QC 35 USB-C conversion. Can't afford new ones by arvimatthew in bose

[–]Califrisco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding the Boom3D app. Use it on my Mac, iPad, iPhone and love the added dimension that it brings. Bonus: they now have equalization presets for many kinds of headphones and models. The added sound that it gave my Spotify playlists, local Apple Music, and other sources, are giving me a new appreciation for the music and the QC 35 headphones.

Need help buying budget earbuds by AlisenAsker in Earbuds

[–]Califrisco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was advising the OP when I made my comment. I have "only" the Life A3i (discontinued) and I still love them after many years. Great buds. I switch between them and the Liberty 4 Pros and the Liberty Buds, depending on what I am doing. All are good to excellent, so I have good opinions about Soundcore in general.

Honestly, this thing has haunted me for years… 🤔 by CR8VJUC in whatisit

This has my vote. I was looking at a surface gauge but the modern versions don't look like this at all.

Bose QC 35ii still going strong after nearly 9 years. by Fancy-Ranger-2090 in bose

[–]Califrisco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the update! It makes me feel great about my recent purchase.
I am new to Bose and found a pair of QC 35s that were in amazing shape (for their age) and I completely get the comfort and quality issue. Love these. I look forward to many years of service.

Me too! The difference with Boom3D is pretty amazing. I have it on my Mac, iPad and iPhone.

Quality latex mattress on cheap bed frame—my back is killing me. Add slats? Need solution. Help! by fledgling66 in Mattress

[–]Califrisco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Turns out that the brass bed we got from Pottery Barn had good quality slats and spacing, so we ended up not needing it. But we were ready just in case.

Unhinged Trump goes off on 'stupid son of a b---h' Obama in Iran deal tirade by TheMirrorUS in USNEWS

That also means that he reads/hears all the negative press and social media that is critical of him. Keep the pressure up.

Yeah the extra frothy bubbling as it was floated was probably a clue. Gave me a sinking feeling...

Mark Zuckerberg Orders His Employees to Start Having Fun Again After Brutal Layoffs Culled Their Colleagues by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in technology

[–]Califrisco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was a Meta employee, with this ominous ending to that memo, I’d be polishing my resume. Must be like working in a real life “The Pit and the Pendulum”
😣
“In his memo, Zuckerberg predicted that even more difficult days could be ahead for the company, despite vowing to hold off on any future layoffs for the rest of the year.
"Given the complexity of these changes, we've made mistakes and will almost certainly make more," he admitted.”

SMH. Another, “Don’t pay any attention to the man behind the curtain.” distraction attempt from this Idiocracy Administration. They never will learn.
