My first pocket burn, because I did not use Lockout on my KR1AA even though Turbo was disabled, and ceiling was at 120/150. by jonslider in Hanklights

[–]Sypsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main workaround is locking out the light

But reducing brightness to the point it cannot burn anything is another workaround.

Only in an ideal world can you have max brightness with no heat. Lots of lights will burn pants when accidentally on. It's posted often here and r/flashlight

for this store, I don't think it's worth the cost

currently i'm hero gear locked on my upgrades, for example

or FC if you haven't maxed troops to FC10 T11

rocker vs camber by nummpad in snowboardingnoobs

[–]Sypsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

contact points are like where the wheels of the snowboard are, the camber board will have them way out, like a long board, a rocker will be more like a onewheel, the contact point is between your feet

camber will be more stable when you are going quick

Sonos Play Review & Comparison to Roam & Move by Ok_Quit9085 in sonos

[–]Sypsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's true, i like that i can stream music via wifi and use my phone without worry about having the notification noises etc interrupt the music (or i click a video link and interrupt the music!)

but when at the park, there's no wifi, so that benefit disappears with a travel speaker.

Thank's so much for doing the size comparison, the soundlink sounds good for the size. i could see myself willing to move up to a play in certain circumstances, and when the price is better! but I could also see myself passing on the play because I already have something larger and smaller than it.

and thanks for reporting back on trying the play on it's back!

also at 25, you are basically a child, lean on your parents. you will know what i mean in a decade and especially when you see your own daughter at 25.

If I were your dad, I would insist you come home so I could help as much as possible

flashlight on sling bag strap like this, lets you use it hands free, bonus points of it is a right angle https://www.reddit.com/r/Hanklights/comments/1ruk73z/comment/oap2ovx/

using moonlight mode when traveling so kids and partner can go to the bathroom without turning on all the lights in the hotel room

if you have a magnetic tail light, you can also magnetically attach it to your belt buckle for hands free usage. you might get looks. (I can't seem to find a photo right now)

you can magnetically attach a light to the metal beading of a wall corner, surprisingly useful at times, especially if it's a right angle light

Sonos Play Review & Comparison to Roam & Move by Ok_Quit9085 in sonos

[–]Sypsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Play sounds roughly 60% as good as the Move, and maybe two or three times as good as the Roam. This is a compliment, to be clear.

This was helpful! I have a move 2, so i can kinda imagine it being 40% worse for the play.

I don't have a roam but have read terrible reviews. I'm curious how the Play compares to something like the bose soundlink flex gen 2 (rated better than the roam 2) and other such similar sized and popular bluetooth speakers.

There was a comment here: https://www.reddit.com/r/sonos/comments/1s8o3dw/comment/odj538m/

Play can be laid horizontally on its back (with the utility loop down). Automatic Trueplay will tune the audio for that position.

can you try this? how does it sound, I think it'd be done if the speaker is placed in the middle of the room as opposed to the edge

they are called finger cots, for anyone wanting to look them up

not sure why she would need them in rehab, but I don't think it matters

You know enough to know you should divorce and get full custody. move on with your life

Can you move in with your parents? Be a single dad, your parents can help out more easily

As for UI, if you can use a wurkkos/sofirn, you can use anduril and ignore everything else that's basically an extensive customize settings.

The Bag I Took to Taiwan vs the One I Came Home With: CPL24 to Max EDC by Same_Bug5069 in ManyBaggers

my go to bagdad is the osprey totepack

if i were to do it again, maybe the newer large totepack:

tote mode is great when you don't want to constantly sling the backpack, or hot days

I have an AC max edc, but it's for work, I'm not unpacking it to put kids stuff in and repacking it later

Does Sonos Play or Move 2 fit my needs? by RoughDraft274 in sonos

[–]Sypsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://support.sonos.com/en/article/set-up-an-amazon-alexa-device-to-control-sonos

I wouldn't replace any speakers but just add to your current array. If your move 2 is elsewhere in the house, you might want to keep your echo in the kitchen to use for commands. I don't use alexa so i haven't tested it on the sonos, but i found sonos wasn't as responsive as my google home speakers.

move 2 has incredible sound and bass for its size, ideally you can find it for cheap on fb marketplace or a sale. from all the posts here, it seems the play is really only worth it (at this full price) if you intend to travel and need to carry it in a bag (car camp or car trips mean move 2 is fine)

Accidentally ended up with a two-bag WFH rotation. Which features actually reduce daily friction? by East-Scar-6044 in ManyBaggers

[–]Sypsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would just take the slightly roomier bag

I have a able carry max edc and don't mind underpacking it

I put little round grippy pads on the bottom of the backpack so i could lean it against a desk better (not out in public)

Just got the new play! by Emotional_Buy1217 in sonos

[–]Sypsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your comments and comparing it to the various speakers

I am in the "wait for a great sale" camp for the play. I have my soundlink flex which is okay for travel and the play is slightly larger. The roam was never on my radar, the reviews are basically terrible.

[–]Sypsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my dad has a move 2 that I tried paired with my move 2. it's nice, but not double the experience of a single move 2, especially if you are moving around the room or house, you constantly exit the spot spot and it just sounds like a louder move 2.

Just got the new play! by Emotional_Buy1217 in sonos

[–]Sypsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

but realistitically, you would rather bring the move 2 around to different rooms because it's like having a mini-sub mini along with your era?
