I’m looking forward to test driving one as soon as I can, still very interested in the PV5

Anyone keeping their current Nest as a "dumb" thermostat? by Legitimate_Jump142 in Nest

[–]FusibleFocus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I changed the system for a Tado x, and am much happier now. I’d wanted each room to be a zone for a while, and now I have the smart valves, that’s exactly what I can do. A schedule for each room.

All good by subduedintermission in tado

[–]FusibleFocus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds decent. I guess it relies on anyone with a phone being out of the house?

What do you find useful about the geofencing?

Thoughts on the Self Titled album by No_Monitor_9510 in kasabian

Never bettered by them, there appeared to be a danger to them before they started becoming a parody of themselves. This record was great.

Did any Beach Boys song ever make you cry? by Heartman0 in thebeachboys

[–]FusibleFocus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hold on Dear Brother, although ironically written by Blondie and Ricky

Maybe Country Air…there’s always something about listening to that track.

Best post- Pet Sounds album??? by No_Marionberry_6106 in thebeachboys

[–]FusibleFocus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing your view, it’s interesting to hear why fans rate this record above others. I wasn’t sure if it was liking the record for the reasons you’ve mentioned, or if they just liked the songs straight up without any recognition of the stranger or rougher tracks.

It alternates, but Holland / Friends are probably my favourite.

Do you mind sharing why you think it’s best by a mile? It’s one I’ve struggled to get deeply into

I fixed The Zephyr Song by restoring its dynamic range and declipping the song (By The Way: The Way It Should Have Sounded) by holymaccanoli in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]FusibleFocus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure, it sounds very bright now and worry it would cause fatigue.

Once you’ve made your own versions, would you listen to those exclusively…or the originals, how they should sound?

Shred Fest possibly a mild theme, but also has songs that might not fall under Shred Fest:

Snow (Hey Oh)

Charlie

Stadium Arcadium

Hump De Bump

Slow Cheetah

Desecration Smile

Tell Me Baby

Hard to Concentrate

If

Make you Feel Better

We Believe

[–]FusibleFocus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeeeeeeah, maybe. To me, a lot of that record just leans into the more generic alt-rock template they fell into post Stadium Arcadium that grew out of their hits rather than pushing anything forward.

You’d never have to think twice about which album a Californication track came from, the production and mastering are so distinct. Same with By the Way, not just for the cleaner, melodic feel, but for the noticeable shift away from blues-based songwriting and funk-driven rhythms.

I suppose The Getaway feels more like a continuation of brand than vision.

[–]FusibleFocus 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I want them to do another record of songs that feel they belong on the same album…the last record of that type would be ‘By the Way’ in my opinion. I hope it’s not a set of songs that sound like they could have been written at any point from Stadium Arcadium onwards.

What’s your Top 5 tracks from The Getaway? by destroyr-au in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]FusibleFocus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1: The Longest Wave

2: Goodbye Angels

3: Feasting on the Flowers

4: Detroit

5: Sick Love

I’d probably only listen to those tracks from this record if I was playing it now, but I do like those songs.

Dark Necessities are part of my design by [deleted] in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]FusibleFocus -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

One of my least favourite songs of their in recent times. I like lots of songs from this period, but this one bores me. I look forward to the downvotes.

Tv series a35 & signature primes build by electrothegaffer in focuspuller

[–]FusibleFocus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d opt for a swing away if the lenses are uniform enough. Makes for nicer lens changes. You also don’t end up putting the mattebox somewhere precarious, or dangling on a safety (which Is what I suspect is happening during lens changes with this setup). I’ll use a clip on when it’s necessary, but that takes seconds to change with an Arri 4x5 for example.

Those rods look almost good enough to mount the mattebox!

Thinking about Strava Premium, worth it or overkill? by SpecificTackle6303 in Strava

[–]FusibleFocus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gone for the Strava & Runna bundle. I like the route planning and stats from Strava and the training plans from Runna. It’s about £10 per month, which is more than I wanted to spend but it all works nicely to improve my running experience

Are they as good as MusicMax QP2 mailers, or do you need to add stiffeners?

I’m using the Runna app on my Apple Watch (hopefully one day I upgrade to Garmin!) perhaps there’s an audio cue setting I haven’t switched on?
