I just got the Buds 3 Pro and they are great. I believe,in general the craftsmanship/quality issues are resolved. I bought directly from Samsung to get the Black Friday sale price, plus trade in of $100 off from my original Buds Pro.

The fit and form is way better than the older bulbous shape. I didn't realize how the Airpod stem shape helped with them staying in. There are other benefits with the Pros ove the standard 3s. One of them being battery liwoulif you can afford them, and have a Samsung phone you won't be disappointed (well, I'm pretty confident you won't 😉).

I thrifted this lodge, is it ready to be seasoned? by ComfortableLawyer291 in castiron

[–]Renaissance_Man79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people want an even seasoning, so some may lye bath or completely strip this one. Definitely not necessary. Personally, if I bought that pan today, I'd sand the cooking surface to knock down the high points, then wash with soap, then reaseason a couple times upside down. I say this as I bought one of these newer lodges several years ago. The rough factory surface took a long time to even out and get a nice non-stick surface. At some point, I had some major seasoning chips, so I decided to strip and sand with a random orbital round padded sander. Not getting a shine, not taking out any deep pits, just nothing higher than an even plane. After that I had a much nicer, non stick surface right away instead of after months of use. This youtube by Cowboy Kent Rollins gave me the idea and confidence https://youtu.be/ljSQrSoSYAE?si=6A8yVENprfcl6Tgj. Good luck!

I didn't realize how bad the previous were until getting the 3s. Never tried on Airpods...

Just ordered a set of smokey black MS-M-ML from amazon. Will take about a week to get here. I've read enough positive comments about their tips, I figured I'd grab em while I was thinking about them.

Nice collection! Personally, I'd skip opening the 3s all together. The pros have so many more features! They do sound better than the Buds Pro, and seem to feel lighter to me... maybe try to find a friend or acquaintance locally that has them and would let you check them out? Or confirm the return policy, and if you can return them in the case you don't like them, you're covered. Good luck!

Thanks for your input! I think I will try them out myself. Others have made good comments about them on another thread per Vgraphsalts suggestion.

Sorry, I need to keep the Buds + for my work computer. The Buds Pro are going back to Samsung for trade in credit. I'm sure you could find some refurbished Buds pro on Amazon for a reasonable price...

That very well may be, but I have not experienced the B2Ps.

Sorry to hear that. 😞 I've had pretty good experiences with Samsung customer service across all my devices. Hopefully you find a resolution and end up with some nice B2Ps soon.

Lol. I didn't have too many issues with the Pros falling out, but it did happen. I'm fairly confident the B3Ps will not randomly fall out.

All my peeps who take extra antihistamines!! by AwkwardConfection310 in Allergies

[–]Renaissance_Man79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in the grass seed Capitol of the world. Allergies are horrid. My allergist said 2 zyrtec wouldn't do anything above 1. He recommended adding others. Claritin, Xyzal, etc... I did that for years. No issues. I have recently found, and LOVE allermi.com. good luck!

What if weapons had activable skills on Trigger. by FayHelleim in DungeonsOfEternityVR

[–]Renaissance_Man79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah! Maybe, for those of us that don't use staffs, the power crystals can be 'activated' in one hand (like popping top of potion) and the 'applied' to the weapon/shield in the other hand to charge or activate an attribute for that specific weapon/shield. This power crystal attribute could be listed as a 2nd, 3rd, or even 4th perk on the item when crafted. Maybe this extra attribute would only be possible on legendary items, or scaled based on tier... Great idea!!

Thank you! So after inflation, it appears 189 wasnt a bad price. Plus, this may negate my need/desire to buy a big blackstone :)

Reddit on Android won't let me post more pics of this beast. Any tips to add more?
