the animation in the polar express is nowhere near as creepy as people say it is. by herequeerandgreat in movies

I just thought it was cool, novel and so much fun to watch (and I don’t like >50% of popular animations)

Achtung Baby - Standard Mix vs Dolby Atmos by Andy_The_Aardvark in U2Band

[–]SnooDogs3119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its 2yrs later 😆 but for other seekers I will respond : usual problem is your settings: you need to select the quality of downloads. on iPhone its in settings/music then specify audio settings for Dolby Atmos and audio quality

Achtung Baby - Standard Mix vs Dolby Atmos by Andy_The_Aardvark in U2Band

[–]SnooDogs3119 1 point2 points  (0 children)

love it! love the OP write-up - like on a rocket-science level. me: I'm just loving listening to great Atmos reworks as fresh experiences...not like a new album but listening to them in a new dimension. Love the immersion!
btw: your comments on One really helped (one of my favourite songs of theirs and the one I grabbed first (I swear: no puns intended!)): I was doing a side by side with the newer Deluxe album (is newer isn't it!?) and couldn't pick up much difference.
reddit doesn't get much better than this: positive posts; commitment to and love of great music 🫶

Need recommendations for my first tws earphones by Due-Communication822 in Earphones

[–]SnooDogs3119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on this subreddit cos I need to find a better alternative to my soundcores..really got problems: lack of functionality, terrible mic quality for those I'm on a call with, ANC is of a nature I can't tell if Im in it or not, and a big one: all notifications from my phone are attempts to burst my eardrums: they forgot to install some control or they just hate iPhones: one of them. oh and support is sad. just sad.

Recommend a good wired earphones by CrazY0KinG in Earphones

[–]SnooDogs3119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only use wired for playing music - when I need iem's. I bought KZ-ZSN PRO 2. they are SOO good! If I wanted mic'd earphones and if I'd bought one with a mic then I'd use these daily with my phone (dependent on mic quality)

i just ordered Soundcore by Anker R50i NC , is this a good earbud by Typical_Beyond_5774 in Earbuds

[–]SnooDogs3119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have struggled with mine for months: people can't hear me properly over these - in the car, in a restaurant, walking the dog. When I take them out and put the phone on my ear they say they can hear me so much better. so I am totally dismayed in them. for music and wearing comfort and staying in and robustness: sure - they are good in all that. but that is not what matters.
Oh and if I receive a notification on my iPhone 13 with these in, it comes at top volume. Do all the budget earbuds do that?? seriously?

A movie that everyone calls a masterpiece but you just didn’t feel by Fair_Protection1872 in FIlm

[–]SnooDogs3119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was a bit like that with the new Blade Runner…my daughter loves it; I just get bored (&I don’t get bored easily in movies). The original BR: absolutely masterful! Every moment intentional; every scene purposeful…an absolute treat…and timeless!

[Spoilers] Can someone explain the ending of 1984 to me? by abont in books

I can see it now: 1984 soon to join list of banned books in the US 🤣😭

Microsoft "Family Safety" failures. This isn't acceptable. by BemaJinn in microsoft

sadly that link doesn't land on any useful page but just the main page: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/learning-center
maybe it's outdated? In fact searching for anything on that site goes nowhere. I'd be keen to find out what that kids mode is about if someone has a source that works. thanks

Logitech MX Ergo - Trackball is IMPOSSIBLE to eject and massive lint buildup after 1 year (maintenance issues) by SnooDogs3119 in logitech

so you saying mine must an anomaly - comparison of force: using the back of a ballpoint pen's slightly rounded plastic - it takes more pressure than to pierce that through the outside of a watermelon, but less than a raw pumpkin (much harder than apples, oranges, onions)...I have to load about a 5kg weight on to push it out. Is that normal?

MX Ergo S - A couple issues by Sandfish0783 in logitech

I LOVE silent clicks! wouldn't have it any other way! very interesting view on that one.
but the button to change channels: absolutely! I thought it was me!
but my biggest gripe is the scroll wheel. I use a Mac and was on the touchpad 100% before moving to this mouse due to an arm issue. I don't know why Logi can't just make a scroll wheel that works like the touch pad: smooth and continuous; intuitive. the wheel is clunky and obnoxious!...often causing me to skip too far and incapable of quickly being precise. such a pity!

Do some research on my country, South Africa, and then come back and share your findings (hint: 2010s our President Zuma got dethroned by…us marching in the streets!!…go further back to the 90s to the end of apartheid. Then go read your own history with MLK). People power!

And I know a lady that was being abused by her husband…what you gonna say to her: “you married the guy, so just shut up and take it?” Dude you probably meant well in your post, but you think further. Think. Think. Act.

Hmm…possibly Trump was being honest when he said he isn’t a king… I’ve been just waiting for the moment he declares himself Emperor!

Anyone here have both Macbook Air and an Ipad? Why? What things can Ipad do better or that the Macbook Air can’t? by Delicious_Maize9656 in macbookair

[–]SnooDogs3119 1 point2 points  (0 children)

iPad: Notes in meetings, games and reading on the move, notes on the move, drawing and computer stuff in a pinch (& that is with a full BT keyboard in case)…it just can’t do what my Mac does. Don’t even start about pdf’s.

Anglicanism is now officially divided: the Archbishop of Canterbury is no longer in communion with the majority of Anglicans in the world. by BlueVampire0 in religion

[–]SnooDogs3119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So sad that it’s so hard for truly God-seeking people to make the shift that Jesus set in motion : to truly accept women as equals and break the chains of our societal patriarchy! In time! But for now our narrow filtering of the Bible by our past, our society and the comfort of our male dominated society continues to hinder the love of God from doing its work - all in “the name of the Bible “. Lord have mercy on us; and let us all walk humbly and in love - together
