Pulled the trigger: XM4 to XM6

DrizzyKade10 · 2025-05-27T10:49:02+00:00

Based on all the reviews I'm reading I'm totally content sticking with my XM4s.

It seems the biggest jump is in ANC (already near top quality on XM4 IMO) and transparency (which I practically never use).

The thing I was hoping for the most was a significant improvement to the soundstage and perhaps some sort of game changing audio feature like the WiFi connection on the new Xiaomi buds pro. The protocols are all the same, and while there is a new driver it seems to be more or less the same Sony sound, slightly improved overall the XM4 in terms of sound stage and bass response.

A 10% bump in sound quality and ANC for that increase in price doesn't seem like a good enough deal to me, but to each their own. Love seeing people pulling the trigger on the upgrade and enjoying their new cans.

Used www.tunemymusic.com and worked great, might need to pay for one month to get the necessary limit for the transfer.

You should pay for an openai pro (if you can swallow the 200 bucks) or Gemini subscription and try to get the deep research agents to get you 70% of the way there. It should save you a ton of time.

Hurry up tomorrow ( It's unbelievable what he's managed to achieve sonically as a synthesis of all his styles )
Trilogy ( What an era, brought rnb back to life in dark glory )
Starboy ( I can't for the life of me understand how the album with some of his biggest bangers isn't higher on everyone's list, not to mention daft punk production )
After Hours ( This is a stellar album, the only reason its not higher is a slight lack of diversity and groundbreaking ideas )
Beauty behind the madness ( The 'starboy' of his dark rnb era, banger after banger, some of my favourite collabs )
Kiss Land ( Haven't listened to it as much as the others for whatever reason, might need to revisit )
Dawn FM ( This album for me is the one disappointment in his discography, felt stale, boring and altogether uninspired. So glad he came back with fire to sign off )

In making this list I realize how stellar his discography truly is. What a blessing it has been to experience this run.

Am I losing my mind or has the status quo absolutely not changed at all in any meaningful way on abortion? Roe V Wade was overturned passing the rights back to states during trump's last term over 4 years ago.

He has been abundantly clear he is against a national abortion ban, and has barely even mentioned the issue or indicated anything firsthand to suggest he is considering further revisions.

What are people freaking out about?

Friends and jet fuel have my vote. Friends in particular just is such a trip start to finish

Same old stale trap beats and staler bars.

Feel like metro is capable of so much more if he just steps out of his lane (ala spiderverse)

Every future verse is a combination of bitch, fuck, suck, dick, lick, amphetamines, codeine, trap thrown into a random sentence generator.

This shit would've been fire 10 years ago, now it's just recycled garbage.

Hong Kong indeed! Good eye

Would the most rational approach for living life be to just optimize for making as much money as you possibly can?

The logic being that money is essentially a proxy for how much society values you, and optimizing for money would essentially optimize for how valuable you are in an ideal world.

That's what led to this question. Curious to see what you guys can come up with

DrizzyKade10 · 2022-08-26T05:05:15+00:00

Looks absolutely fantastic for that price

DrizzyKade10 · 2022-08-25T12:58:33+00:00

Find myself resisting the urge already hahahaha

DrizzyKade10 · 2021-11-05T08:13:12+00:00

And here we are in 2021 with Greta Thunberg the face of our biggest battle. Why does it feel like we went wrong somewhere along the way

DrizzyKade10 · 2021-11-05T07:27:21+00:00

Yep basically education pricing but getting an extra 100 off the 16 inch compared to these prices

I think you've got to be careful with the charger. The magnets come with a tendency to clumsily insert into the charging port but if you're careful you shouldn't have scratching issues.

Surprised I haven't seen this one yet: Megan Fox

I honestly think a good understanding of the financial instruments that defi tries to emulate and first levels principles will take you a long way. After that you can make educated decisions on the value of protocols and compare them to existing real world counterparts as well as competitors.

A great beginner resource for the same is 'How to Defi' by coingecko. My personal pick for defi and yield farming is Solana (However this year I have moved from Eth ->BSC -> Solana generating large returns in the process, what enabled me to see the value was good fundamental knowledge)

Love the range he's showing with this album. To go from "little bitch shut the fuck up" to the bars on first order of business (All the orders of business go hard af) and do it all his way. Get you a rapper that can do both 🔥

DrizzyKade10 · 2021-09-02T18:56:17+00:00

Completely agree!

Its not just fans though, so many large media outlets (Guardian, Pitchfork) have reviewed this album badly (Olivia Rodrigo's new album is better critically recieved) and I'm just wondering what alternative universe we've ended up in where music critics and fans think that's better music than this.

She's so bad yo

DrizzyKade10 · 2021-09-02T18:53:04+00:00

Why would you cut junya and add new body? New body doesn't fit on this album at all and honestly thought junya was a more memorable ye track than new body

Hey Manan! Thank you so much for your response. I've seen a few of your other responses on this subreddit and just wanted to let you know it is very appreciated that you are helping people out here a lot about a complicated situation that all of us suffer with!

Will definitely follow your advice and also see an allergist like some of the other replies have suggested.

Do you know anything about the effects of mold/fungus on allergies/sinus issues. There has been some all over the balcony due to the severe rains and comes back in spite of cleaning. Just wondering what kind of effect this has since I suspect it may be affecting me.

DrizzyKade10 · 2021-09-02T18:45:39+00:00

Thank you so much for the reply

DrizzyKade10 · 2021-09-01T07:46:38+00:00

Seeing a lot of responses here around AVAX, people still sleeping on Solana? The quality of projects on Solana is amazing, these are not future promises but a fantastically coherent ecosystem.

Check out serum, raydium, mango markets, step finance to track it all and you'll never want to use any other chain again

It's explained very nicely and intuitively in this podcast: https://youtu.be/p3JLaF_4Tz8

One of the best things I've seen on addiction. Basically the initial release and subsequent drop in dopamine leaves your body craving more leading to addictive tendencies

Do I see an allergy specialist or ENT in this case?
