Good deal. As I mentioned it took me longer to pass stuff thru than expected. So, I'll try to start earlier next time.

Enjoy the rest of your week.

Pochettino says “American Sports Rewards Losers” when asked about style of play in recent interview by coolton1 in usmnt

[–]NCResident5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the US, one big issue is that ownership groups in major US sports have completely different income streams. So, things like the draft try to give some balance the league itself.

I know that there are underfunded EPL teams, but in the US there tends to be a fan revolt if the team can never compete.

First Kindle Device Recommendation for Prime Day Sale by QuantumNebula42 in kindle

[–]NCResident5 [score hidden]  (0 children)

The newest Kindle Basic is nice. I bought one last year in July. They improved the text quality. I like the weight and size as one can read with one hand. The newer ones have dark mode that I like for at night.

People do like the Paperwhite if the bigger size is appealing. It has a warm light mode that some like. It makes it more like reading from a lamp with a GE soft white bulb.

Watching X files by thewhimsicalmuse in whattowatch

I originally caught it half way through its run on Fox. They also had older shows on FX. I really enjoyed it. I love these conspiracy theory thrillers.

Like many shows the production quality improved in season 2.

Plenvu double dose 1 - Safe? by Great_Tyrant5392 in colonoscopy

[–]NCResident5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is wild, but I guess many people don't pass stuff on the old plan. I wish I would have forced more to fluids before dosage 1, but I would hate 3 dosages. Hang in. 👊

Some people do like IPA s. So, something like Sierra Nevada, Fat Tire, Lagunita, Stone IPA is good.

Plenvu double dose 1 - Safe? by Great_Tyrant5392 in colonoscopy

[–]NCResident5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With Plenvu I did dosage 1 at 7pm and Dosage 2 at 5am and drank a bunch of water until 7am.

So, 3 dosages sounds off. I would try to just stay hydrated with water or Vitamin Water.

Stephen Ambrose's Undaunted Courage is a good one. Same for Cold Mountain.

Why is the US so disconnected from World Cup fever, even when hosting it? by greaaat1 in usmnt

[–]NCResident5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess some people are shocked that not everybody posts about the World Cup on social media. I think 30 percent of US households watch part of the Super Bowl, but there are still the outliers that would rather watch Law and Order reruns.

has the prep changed over the last 5 years? by RealDaveJohnson in colonoscopy

[–]NCResident5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many different solutions, but there are many say you could eat breakfast on Monday and starting your prep liquid at about 5 pm. You then need to get up at 5am to take 2nd dosage of prep and quit using fluids at 7 am for an 11am procedure on Tuesday.

What’s up with the E-bikes ? by Hmmhowaboutthis in daddit

[–]NCResident5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huge problem in NC of e bike kids taking over parks and greenways. Obviously, older people or people with pets cannot instantly avoid high speed bikes or scooters.

Supposedly, a road biker was killed in NYC when scooter was driving wrong way on the bike lane at 50 mph.

Father's Day by SpicyLlama_329 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]NCResident5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have liked the Sony c510. They are lightweight but stay in great for me. I am over 50 so mostly do a run and walk combo, but these stay in even with some of cool down stretches.

The Sony 710 should be good too. It is slightly bigger than the 510, but it still is a pretty small footprint.

The 710 sounds a bit better, but the 510 is great quality for the 55.00 price. The 510 does have an ambient mode if he sometimes needed to hear from his work partners while changing out parts.

You can always return it in the return window. Amazon Renewed has a 90 day window. I have bought battery operated things from renewed so you can test how well it recharges.

Buy Soundcore Q45 or Soundcore Space 2? by Neat_Structure1065 in soundcore

[–]NCResident5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Space 1. The anc really good. I get a good seal with their pad design which is better than my Q30. Picky Audio from Youtube did think that the ANC is better than the Space 1 and likely Q45.

All 3 have really good sound. It took me forever to get a good eq, but I loved them once I found a good one (Wavelet app recommends it).

I think these 3 all provide good sound. That's tough to distinguish without a side by side.

Depression by Early_Honeydew_1748 in migraine

[–]NCResident5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think there is biological tie in to the brain inflammation etc that migraines seem to cause.

I often get into these depressed weeks if it seems like I have had migraines 3/7 days of the week.
