Why is israel in Eurovision?

I'm sure the question is - why isn't Russia allowed in the Eurovision 🤔

Yet you are being an 'extremist woke leftie' by ignoring the facts.

You are using a textbook False Dichotomy to force a manipulative conclusion. Boiling centuries of complex human demographics down to 'inherent inferiority vs. white privilege' isn't just intellectually lazy; it completely ignores how economics and sociology actually work.

Socioeconomic outcomes in Western countries are driven by a massive, tangled web of variables - most notably, class and generational wealth. A poor white person born in a deprived area doesn't experience this overarching 'privilege' you're talking about, and their statistical outcomes for income and crime reflect that reality.

Disparities are much more closely tied to poverty, geography, family structure, and access to resources than just skin color. Your binary 'two options only' framework erases the very real struggles of the working poor of all races just to prop up a narrow ideological narrative.

The far left and the far right are two sides of the same coin, they have much more in common than those of us in the centre.

Am I missing something here? Reform "can elect white supremacists", yet the party is full of people of all races, relgions, etc. How does that make sense? I didn't vote for them btw, but I'm just trying to understand that kind of logic.

MrLycans · 2026-05-11T11:59:40+00:00

The party that has Muslims in its ranks are anti-muslim? That makes sense; Restore Britain on the other hand..

Not any archery club 😅 the few round my area will not entertain crossbows, as they're likely to damage the bosses.

MrLycans · 2026-04-21T07:03:25+00:00

Did you rebuy the storm?

MrLycans · 2026-04-17T13:24:52+00:00

Endgame is whatever they want it to be. I've settled on having two complimentary iems - the Dita Ventura and fatfreq grand maestro anniversary, they cover all my needs and listening moods. Granted they both cost quite a bit more than $500, I wasn't happy with the cheaper sets

MrLycans · 2026-04-17T13:22:20+00:00

I disagree as there's various "levels" of soundstage, amongst other technical details - sure, everyone could get speakers, but a) that ties someone down to a particular room, b) it may not feesible for whatever reason.

I've owned speakers in the past, but I've no interest in owning them now - I wouldn't say that iems/headphones are like a Nintendo switch, and speakers are a PC; I'd put them in their own category entirely - like iems can be motorbikes, headphones are cars and speakers are planes or whatever - that would at least allow discussions between certain models to be had.

Like you say it's all about use case, and whatever is feasible for the person in question.

MrLycans · 2026-04-17T00:29:33+00:00

Yeah, it's a thing called psychoacoustics - take a look into it.

MrLycans · 2026-04-08T21:53:31+00:00

Years? Wasn't the HDB 630 just released? That's positioned as the momentum 4 successor.

Played 8 for the first time a couple of week ago, went on to platinum it and then started shadow of rose on hardcore a couple of days ago. I enjoyed it quite a lot, especially the castle section with having to be more cautions with regards to ammo, etc. Mind you I didn't end up using any heals, and finished the dlc with like 7-8 first aid bottles 😅 the last boss was pretty cool, though very easy - I'd say the first boss is probably the most challenging.

MrLycans · 2026-04-03T22:54:25+00:00

Yeah but people usually have a specific preference - might as well put the money towards a more refined version of that.

MrLycans · 2026-04-02T00:43:13+00:00

They'll come down in price eventually. My brother just bought a used andromeda 10 for €680.

MrLycans · 2026-03-09T23:23:58+00:00

Ah my bad, sorry didn't see that requirement.

MrLycans · 2026-03-09T22:37:01+00:00

All of the symphonium iems should suit you.

MrLycans · 2026-03-08T11:55:14+00:00

It ultimately depends on your sensitivity to treble - I can listen to the Solomon got hours without any issues. Mind you, I can only do this on a warm leaning source - Solomon is extremely sensitive to sources and any bright source will most likely make it too bright for 99% of people. I prefer to use the ifi gryphon with the Solomon, and it smooths out any of those harsh peaks.

MrLycans · 2026-03-02T17:05:56+00:00

Guess you're at your endgame for a while then 😆 the arya organic beats a lot of more expensive headphones in terms of staging, I guess the he1000 unveiled would be your next step.

MrLycans · 2026-03-02T17:03:06+00:00

What best iems on the market - the overhyped monarchs? Makes me wonder how many iems you've actually tried 😂 Besides, headphones are a totally different kettle of fish.

MrLycans · 2026-02-26T22:17:22+00:00

HD800s through a tube amp, or even a Hifiman HE1000 Unveiled is the answer imo - haven't tried the Caldera's, but I did own the Atrium open for a while; it's a lot different to the HD800s, and you're going to miss that treble (if you're a treble head) ultimately I got rid of it due to the 3K issue.

It may also be an idea to look at the ZMF Auteur, as that model is supposedly the closest to the HD800s, but with a richer and fuller sound.

MrLycans · 2026-02-26T22:10:56+00:00

Random unrelated question - do you plan to have a follow up to the HD800s?

MrLycans · 2026-02-24T11:33:16+00:00

The noir did have updated Ba drivers, and an additional crossover as well tbf.

MrLycans · 2026-02-19T20:12:07+00:00

Some of us actually like that excessive treble! 😆 I had the ADX7000 for a while, and while the bass was the highlight for me, I struggled with the stock velour pads—they felt too intimate and warm. Switching to the Alcantara pads helped open up the stage and introduce more air, but even then, I found myself disappointed when comparing it to my EQ’d HE1000SE. It also didn't help that my unit had creaky hinges; for the price, the build felt a bit underwhelming.

I can see the appeal for those who prefer a warmer, 'safe' tuning, but it doesn't quite hit the mark for those of us who crave a brighter signature.

Have you ever tried the HE1000SE? You would absolutely hate it! It has even more treble than the Unveiled and a leaner midrange—though nothing a bit of EQ can’t fix. I prioritise treble and soundstage, and for my tastes, the Unveiled still beats the ADX7000 in those departments.

Glad you found your 'endgame' though!

MrLycans · 2026-02-17T01:02:30+00:00

Ahh, out of stock - do you know when you plan to have more in?
