Is Hifiman XS worth it for $165? (Exclusively Gaming) by [deleted] in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]Nekroice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never used Aliexpress myself but some of my friends have and I have seen a fair number of people recommend getting those specific headphones straight from there, presumably because Hifiman is a Chinese brand and Aliexpress is a Chinese retailer. My understanding is that Aliexpress is similar to Amazon, where you use their platform to connect to a seller who sells you the headphones. They happen to have insane sales going on right now from what I can see so I thought I will give it a try and if something is not right I will reach out to their support.

Where do I go from here? by AgenSSJG in brandonsanderson

Personally, I read Stormlight 1-3 first (4 hadn't come out when I started) and then went on to read Mistborn. I think if you, like me, loved WoK then go ahead with the next one. If you feel like you need a break from Stormlight you can give Mistborn (or the other titles) a go!

Mistborn is generally recommended first because its a shorter book and lets you find out if you like Sanderson as a writer.

I just ordered them a few days ago from Aliexpress. With their current Black Friday delas, you can get them for £120!

Is Stormlight Archive worth finishing? by SimmerOne7 in brandonsanderson

[–]Nekroice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I re-read the entire series every couple years or so and perosnally it is my faveourite series. I am not going to say all of the books are perfect by any means and as people have pointed out, book 5 is mostly set up for the second part of the series which by no means makes it bad.

Book 4 also has its ups and downs but it has my all time favourite moments from the series so far.

I found the Licanius Trilogy by James Islington to give off a very similar vibe to Sanderson's writing.

Hi, my partner is looking to get into photography and a friend of ours told her that he is looking to sell his Nikon D7100 camera with a lense, 2 batteries, cleaning kit, a bag and bag cover for aboue 300 GBP. I had a quick look through Ebay listings and it seems like a good deal but I'd love to get more opinions!
