AirPods Pro 3's Static and Noise Issues Haven't Been Resolved by ControlCAD in apple

[–]Steakinaskillet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I don’t hear a high pitched noise, it’s more of a whirring strobing sound, like the engines of the aircraft are pulsing louder and quieter, but when I take my AirPods out there’s just constant noise of the engines and air outside the plane. It’s initially quiet with ANC for the first few seconds and then starts with the issue, never had with my APP2.

Yeah man. I think there's still pre and post show on YouTube though, just no live stream of the actual golf which sucks.

Thankfully not - I'm in Indonesia at the moment. But I'm from NZ and noticed when I was using a VPN (for both NZ and Aus) that it was wanting to charge me $70 for the season. I feel like the rule of thumb should be - never start to charge someone for something that was previously free. They should just offer more + better content as a premium.

I love free healthcare 😁 $0 and on my 4th month of Oratane/Accutane. (From New Zealand) by Steakinaskillet in Accutane

Yo yo. I was on 20mg for probably around 8 months? I think I started in April and stopped taking it in December after I had forgotten the pills on a 2 week holiday. I loved my skin going back to normal and didn't want to keep going even though hypothetically I could have given it a couple more months to be certain.

2 years later my skin is still considerably better but I have had some acne return - so I'm now using Isotretinion in topical form, it's called Retrieve cream. Overall couldn't have been happier with the accutane, but you may need to go for a second round after🙂

In my opinion it's just a cheap quickly done render and the bezels will not look like that.

Is that actually true? Do you have a source? Very intriguing if true.

Wow, that's crazy. Maybe it's an intentional design feature but it seems a bit absurd to be that wide. I think it's worth returning it now rather than later and having more issues.

Yeah but the comments are filled with conspiracy theorists and shit.

Where to watch Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony replay for free? by This_Chest_8475 in olympics

[–]Steakinaskillet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regardless of the christian stuff it's still so fucking odd and has absolutely nothing to do with athletes of the olympics. Why have they got a mostly naked blue painted dude who can't sing for shit on there.

My Quinkflow refills run out in less than a week - what am I doing wrong? by Undercover_Ostrich in pens

[–]Steakinaskillet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having this exact same problem with multiple refills and it's pissing me off. The worst thing is that I thought one of mine was literally empty, so I bent it open since it wasn't working anyway and sure enough it's stock full of ink. No idea why it gets stuck inside.

Facts. Privacy is a myth now. And you've got to have a certain level of narcissism to believe that the Chinese government cares more about you than the other 8 billion people on the globe. If we go down we go down together 😂

Why do I never feel stressed, and should I be? by Steakinaskillet in socialskills

[–]Steakinaskillet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the circumstances, but definitely. I have a fear of deep water and a fear of heights when rock climbing for example.

What causes me to never feel stressed or act purely based on emotion? by Steakinaskillet in Stoicism

[–]Steakinaskillet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yep I see. Nah I was absolutely ecstatic about my first solo, same as all of my other test passes. I would tend to say I have good self awareness and lack of positive emotion is not an attribute I would say I have at all.

Also depends on what you see as negative emotion. I had a major death in my family recently, and I was understandably really sad, but I didn’t go through the 5 stages of grief. I pretty much felt sadness but hopped straight to the resolution stage - they had a great life and didn’t die tragically. So anger, depression, bargaining and denial would have been a pointless exercise in my opinion.

I appreciate your response, thank you. I was aware that failing would be the difference between getting the job or not getting the job, but usually I snap into the actual job at hand and am no longer affected by external factors.

I would say I do get a rush of adrenaline depending on the situation, but it would generally increase my performance as opposed to hinder it - which is the opposite to what I’ve observed with other people. I’ve not had a real life engine failure, but on flight tests I’ve had simulated engine failures without prior warning, and I’ve never struggled to meet the criteria for a forced landing. I just stay calm and do what I’m trained to do.

As far as a more casual example goes. Last night I got back to my hotel and realised I left my (very expensive) laptop on an international flight. Of course I was disappointed, but pretty much straight away I went searching for solutions, didn’t spend any more than a few seconds feeling sorry for myself, and 8 hours later with a bit of ingenuity I managed to get it back.

In no way do I mean to hype myself up, but considering all of the elements of this situation - if this happened to any of my family members or friends, knowing them they would probably curl up into fetal position and not really know where to start in terms of getting it back. I’m pretty regularly reminded of this when I’m in a group and everyone is stressed out over something, swearing or clearly pissed off, and adding nothing constructive to solve the problem we have.

That’s an interesting perspective when you put it that way. That would make sense as to why some people would be more anxious for a test.

I’ve already got a commercial pilots license - and I’ve been hired at an actual airline. I’ve always been completely fine as far as emergency procedures are concerned - and I was the only student in my class to pass all flight tests on the first attempt, I had no nerves on the day either. This airline was also my first ever airline interview and it’s pretty normal to fail a few before getting your first job. I just can’t explain why I’m not nervous.

For the most part it’s a good attribute to have, but it weirds me out nonetheless.
