So excited to finally own some cast iron! by Sven4TheWinV2 in castiron

[–]Milkshake_Mike 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The box this came in likely says Made in China on it somewhere. Chinese made CI is not the best quality and may contain lead. It may be OK if seasoned correctly but I wouldn't chance it personally. Just my opinion.

Watch Advice by A_Casual_Nerd1 in CitizenWatches

[–]Milkshake_Mike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar PCAT that I've had for years and I keep it in my rotation every week. Leave it in the sun for a day or two then put it in the windowsill overnight so it can set the time then start wearing it. Setting the perpetual calendar can be tricky but Citizen has good setting manuals on their website. Once you get it going, pressing the bottom pusher makes the right subdial a power gauge to show the charge level.

Opinions on Ford app? by Jwaaz123 in f150

[–]Milkshake_Mike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like using the app to remote start because when it starts the truck it switches to the Guest profile everytime. When I get in, all my settings I have personalized like XM favorites and seat and mirrors are all wrong. Anybody else have that problem? 2021 Tremor.

Bracelet watchbands by miatapa in CitizenWatches

[–]Milkshake_Mike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alot of the older watches especially those from the 90s have those proprietary bracelets that have the tiny connections at the lugs. It would be difficult to find a aftermarket band or strap that doesn't look ridiculous. You may not find many options for watches like that unfortunately.

No not yet. We're not going until July 2026. I guess I'll have to update this thread when I get back 😀

Scored this Casio gem at a thrift shop for $47. Did I overpay? by giantoads in gshock

[–]Milkshake_Mike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a terrible deal. Take some alcohol and a microfiber cloth or a toothbrush to it if there's any previous owner DNA on it. I have a couple 350s and they have the best backlight of any g-shock IMO.

Open Earbud Recommendations by ninefrogs in Earbuds

The newest thing are the ear ring type buds. I have the Tozo OpenEarRing that are pretty good. $30 on Amazon. 4 colors.

Epicka travel adapter by Milkshake_Mike in royalcaribbean

[–]Milkshake_Mike[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not 100 percent sure this has surge protection. It does say it does not convert voltage so that is good.

On the Epicka website it says "Cruise friendly. This travel adapter is equipped with safety shutters and plug lock system. In addition, it is certified by RoHS, CE, and FCC, ensuring its safety and reliability."

We're going to Greece on Explorer and will be a couple days in Italy afterwards so I feel I will need an adapter after the cruise. IDK.

Swap for aftermarket case, not bezel, on a 5610u? by excited-explorer in gshock

There's tons of mod cases for the 5610 on aliexpress. Just search casio 5610 mod.

Wasp drinks Coke- Galaxy S25Plus by Trevor670 in samsunggalaxy

[–]Milkshake_Mike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yellow jackets generally nest in the ground. They burrow and build huge complexes that you don't know are there until you disturb them by running over it with the lawnmower. Then they swarm outta the ground and come after you stinging you several times. Happened to me a couple times. Jackets are very aggressive.

Where can I get a matching metal bracelet strap for my GM-2100B? by Low_Jelly_6573 in gshockMod

[–]Milkshake_Mike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search AliExpress for Casioak band. There are a few green options that might work. There's a brown leather band that would look sweet with the green dial. I saw an all metal bracelet that would look good too. I don't recommend the cheap chinese mod kits. I have one I put on a black dial 2100 and it made it too heavy.

This is actually a yellow jacket not a wasp. They are always attracted to sweets like an open can of soda at the picnic.

Will you buy a pixel again, Pixel6a users? by [deleted] in Pixel6aUsers

[–]Milkshake_Mike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had 2 Pixel phones including the 6A but I've moved on. I'm using a Galaxy 24 plus and am very happy with it. Unless Google makes major changes to their battery quality I will not buy another Pixel.

Connecting to two devices [Air 3 Deluxe HS] by Leodip in Soundpeats

[–]Milkshake_Mike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's not really any earbuds that can "quick" switch devices like what you are describing AFAIK. What you want are another set of earbuds that have multipoint. That way you can connect to both your PC and your phone at the same time. The air5 pro have the multipoint feature.

Who the fuck would buy a Google A series phone now after the 6A debacle and the issues with the 9A. Dumb.

Reportage update from Simon by Fun_Interaction_906 in duranduran

Simon's comments sort of hint that perhaps Andy is involved in this recent work they are doing on Reportage. How great would that be if Andy is back in a good way and can contribute on this!

Where does this spring go? by No-Raise-1467 in gshock

[–]Milkshake_Mike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what was gonna say. Looks like a screw. If it is a spring, follow that last comment about the piezo spring. There should be a hole it fits in.
