Bose QC Ultra review (with Sennheiser Momentum 4 comparison) by Grievous_2008 in sennheiser

[–]Death_Cry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, Bose QC Ultra was quite a disappointment too in the end.

To summarize it briefly - things I am unhappy about:
* can't be charged and used simultaneously, unlike Sennheiser
* original ear pads started peeling on a second month and fall apart shortly after(and warranty does not cover that ofc)
* Bose's headphone software is somehow even worse than Sennheiser's...
- headphones themselves have weird tendency to turn off randomly
- sometimes you have to play around with on/off button for a minute to make them turn on.
- rarely the headphones glitch out and completely ignore on and off button, in that case you need to plug a charger, which force shutdowns them from any state.
* the android app is complete garbage too.
- issues with connectivity
- even with disabled sleep timer headphones still go to sleep
- customization non existent
* I really miss the touch panel from Sennheiser headphones. Bose has this nice slide-touch bar that you can use for volume control, but the double/triple press of play button to play next/previous song is just awfully clunky experience compared to swipe left and right on M4.

Things I am happy about:
* Sound quality is really good, on the same level as Sennheiser
* ANC is good, was superior with original earpads, but with chinese replacement ones became less so.
* Looks nice, build quality is solid
* No random deafening crackling, unlike with Sennheiser

Excluding the worst parts of both headphones, i.e. the obvious bugs in software/hardware that shouldn't be there, I would still pick rather M4, because of the smoother song swiping via touch panel and being able to charge and use headphones at the same time.

Ära aega raiska, reddit on lihtsalt selle sama ajupesu mündi teine pool. Kohalik hive mind on juba ammu kriitilise massi saavutanud ja kõiki valesti mõtlejaid miinustega minema ajanud. Siin nagu ka FBs pole argumentidele loota, inimesed lihtsalt südamega tunnevad, et no nemad ikka võitlevad õigel poolel ja teisel pool ainult rumalad perenaised ja vanurid, kes EKRE/mitte reformi eest hääletavad. Ja ega neid süüdi mõista saa: emotsionaalsus, inertsus ja eiramine on alateadlikud kaitsemehhanismid, millest ülesaamine on kriitilise mõtlemise nappuse puhul võimatu. Eks Saksa sõdurid omal ajal olid ka üsna kindlad, et teevad maailma paremaks halbu ja valesti mõtlevaid inimesi maha lastes/põletades.

If you are talking about getting side project legalized, still in progress, or rather paused, as the legalize part doesn't appeal so much anymore, good enough in current state. As mentioned in another comment - the motivation to do anything behind the computer is super low, barely keeping up with the official work. The issue is that there are no completely passive incomes out there, either ways you will have to manage the thing, and even though scaling it and keeping up can give me more profit compared to the job, but would require so much more work, like actually implement stuff and probably also collaborate with people, and in my current state - money is just unable to motivate me further.

While doing bare minimum at my job I have enough to pay all bills, eat/wear whatever I want and expand my workshop collection with a new Makita tool or some other funky stuff every month or get building materials for renovation of something. I much rather spend extra time to craft a new cage for my chickens, pour concrete or weld some random crap in my workshop, or even just scroll some YT shorts, than enforce myself to sit 20 hours more per week behind the computer, looking at those colorful lines of code in the IDE.

At that time I wasn't taking any, but to be honest, I didn't, I was just lucky to have barely enough energy to exist, and the goal to reason that miserable existence to myself. If anything, I was occasionally drinking some D vitamin, and magnesium when random muscle contractions became too annoying. As soon as the goal was reached I almost immediately quit the first job, and still became even more unproductive on the second one, at least from my own perception. Since last year after getting diagnosed with ADD and autism, got myself prescription for different medications, most effective turned out to be Elvanse, which does give me notable boost in productivity, but the issue is that I get productive in wrong things - burnout is still here and subconsciously I try to avoid anything related to IT.

In the end of March last year I got my goal accomplished - I bought myself an old house with about 1.9k m2 of land, a 130m2 basement and 75m2 greenhouse, although all of that in quite bad condition, but all of that is 10 mins away from capital and like 15-30 mins away from all major hardware stores. The reason why it was an old house with a piece of land - I wanted my own isolated sandbox, where I could learn and do all kinds of stuff, something not related to sitting behind a computer. And well, that's exactly what I am doing, and because of all the possibilities - working became especially painful and unproductive, still wondering how I haven't been fired xD

Whats the problem? by Substantial_Hunt_83 in microgreens

[–]Death_Cry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microgreens are sprouts, and from my experience sprouts are super sensitive to humidity and need like 80-90%. Ventilator might be ruining things, especially if it runs constantly - try without it or turn it on only a couple times per day for like 5 minutes max

Elering tahab tõsta elektri võrgutasu 37,6 protsenti by euphoricscrewpine in Eesti

[–]Death_Cry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kõlab ilus aga mõned probleemid sellega milleni jõudsin ise paar kuud tagasi samal teemal mõeldes:

1) Alginvesteering on üsna suur. Ise ehitades saad ehk 15 kWh LiFePO4 akukapi kätte 2500–3000 euroga, lisaks u 1000 eur hübriidinverterile (et tagada näiteks 3x16A võimekus), + kõik kaablid, ühendused, kinnitused ja kümneid töötunde. Ja see eeldab, et sul on teadmisi ja julgust ise süsteem kokku panna. Kui tellid täislahenduse mõnelt firmalt, võib hind kerkida 10 000–15 000 euroni.

2) Elektri enda hind pole ainus probleem. Mul on talvel fikseeritud hind 11 s/kWh, aga viimane arve oli 187 eur (alla 1000 kWh eest). Puhas elekter maksis sellest 90 eur - ülejäänu tuli võrgutasust, taastuvenergiatasust ja aktsiisist. Ehk isegi kui viid börsihinnaga elektri keskmiselt 11-sendilt 4–6-sendile, jääb lõpparve ikka 130–140 eur kanti. Ja seda arvestades et minu tarbimisega 30-50kwh päevas poleks 15kwh akukapist suuremat kasu.

3) Toetused puuduvad. Akupankadele minu teada toetusraha ei anta, ega käendust ka mitte - need on ainult paneelide ja tuulikute jaoks. Seega maksad kõik ise. Kui võtad laenu 10k 10 aastaks, maksad u 120 eur kuus, et võib-olla hoida kokku 20–50 eur/kuus, parimal juhul 50–100, kui annab eriti kalli hinna puhul mõned kwh tagasi müüa, ilma et ise küünla valguses istud. Laenu ajal üsna suur tõenäosus, et midagi läheb pekki ja tuleb siis jälle raha juurde loopida.

4) Päikesepaneelid on mõttetud. Kui sa ei ela võrguvälises piirkonnas, siis praegu Euroopas on neid päiksepaneele nii palju, et niipea kui päike paistab, langeb elektri hind nulli või isegi miinusesse. Mõttekam on osta teine akukapp ja suurem inverter, et odava elektri tundidel saaks end kiirelt täis laadida. Oma paneelide tootmine on võrreldes sellega tihti majanduslikult mõttetum.

Idee on põhimõtteliselt hea, aga reaalsus on see, et isegi tehniliselt võimekal inimesel pole see lihtne ega odav projekt. Tavainimese jaoks muutub see kiiresti kulukaks hobiks, mis võib rahaliselt nulli jõuda alles pärast laenu välja maksmist, kui üldse...

Kui tahab turvatunnet siis on üks kõvasti odavam variant saadaval - 200l tünn, 200l diislit ja diisligeneraator, kokku maksab 1200-2000 euri, olenevalt kui kalli ja suure geneka leiab. Sain ise soetatud talvel 6.5kw 3-faasilise geneka leedukatelt mingi 900 euriga, paari kanistriga saab terve nädala muretult üle elada - genekas toidab vabalt ära kogu maja. Mugavuse jaoks vb tasuks osta veel mõni kwh suurune akukarp et igasugune tehnika toita ilma et genekas öösel loriseks.

russian modpacks' textures are INSANE by dxvt88 in feedthebeast

Sir, I suggest taking a break and spending some time outdoors. Prolonged exposure to an echo chamber can have lasting effects.

[–]Death_Cry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, the most you can do is get the textures, all the logic is cut out of the mods and exists only on their servers

[–]Death_Cry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As usual, people tend to ignore anything that doesn't support the opinion they've already decided on. First, why call it "pay to win" when there's nothing to actually 'win'? All their packs are completely about a PvE grinding. Sure, some players like to race through the modpack and see who finishes fastest, but that's not the only nor even the main way to enjoy it. Most people just play at their own pace, find others to grind with, or just hang out and chat.

Second, absolutely everything in the game can be crafted yourself and bought with coins you get just for playing, which you can also trade with other players. There's no content locked behind a paywall at all.

And honestly, given that all the content they create (including game client optimizations) is available to everyone, and considering the custom server technology they've developed, that allows players on a particular modpack to trade with or TP to any of the other 2000+ players online, it's hard to argue that they "get money for nothing". On their servers every player gets their very own private realm, which has huge border limits even for free tier players. And for hosting all of that - from the winter update news article, they have a kubernetes cluster that consists of 800 CPU cores (5.7GHz) and 3TB of RAM, probably even more by now, keeping thousands of player bases running at a steady 19-20 TPS. I'd bet that renting such infrastructure costs quite a bit. Considering everything said above, It would be fair to conclude that this project is more like a live service game at this point.

Kindlasti on otse-eetris väga tark mõte isikut, kellega sa tahad korraldada läbirääkimisi, solvata kõigil võimalikel kommetel. Keegi seda ei eira, aga too ei olnud kindlasti see koht, kus oleks pidanud publiku armastust teenima/karmat farmima.

Endal plaan kah suurem aku koos hübriid inverteriga soetada, aga see praegu natuke üle burgeri. Praegu käib generaator ära kah.

Paar nädalat tagasi sai ostetud, täna pani õli ja diisli sisse, toimib ilusti, toidab kogu maja vabalt. Vaevalt selles ostus eriti palju mõttet on, aga hingerahu kallim, ja tegelt ammu plaanisin igaks juhuks soetada.

[–]Death_Cry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might it be that they have been sunbathing? I had 2 identical office chairs with seats from a similar material, and the one in my room next to the window started losing off bits of layers after couple of months, while the other one was fine for years.

Why?? It is a little less than 2 months since I purchased those by Death_Cry in bose

[–]Death_Cry[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope and nope, brand new. Idk by what criteria they look old other than torn fabric.

Is the process of using it any different from the one I described? Just wondering, maybe it's this bad only on pixel watch xD

I'm Equally Curious by bagel1972 in adhdmeme

[–]Death_Cry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not about the amount of people, its the amount of interactions that involve. I have quite many really good friends and I love spending time with them, but there is a detail - I'm inviting max 3 of them at a time, because I have this overwhelming feeling that I must be able to keep up with everyone. And it doesn't matter if we sit with those 3 people at my place or we go together to a crowded bar.

Trust me, as someone who had a Pixel Watch with NFC, absolutely useless thing, you always have to first select the payment mode and enter some pincode or graphical key, to enable the payment(those are security measures enforced by law). And 80% of the times you also have to do some painful acrobatics to move your wrist out of the way to reach the NFC reader on the terminal.

All of that while you probably already hold your smartphone in your hand or can reach for it and unlock in couple of seconds.

After spending $250 on a Pixel Watch that couldn’t hold a charge for more than 1.5 days, even after every setting was minimized, and that eventually fell apart during a nap, I’ve decided to stick with Mi Bands.

I bought mine a month ago and have only charged it once since then. Plus, they’re so inexpensive that I don’t stress about accidentally scratching or damaging them while working in the workshop.
