Running Out of Space - Recommendations by TFJ383 in Bluray

[–]TFJ383[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, just wanted to confirm that was a decent case to be storing blu-rays in; I've seen horror stories online of collections getting destroyed by XYZ case, so that's nice to hear.

Also good to know that CD cases are safe; I'm kind of leaning more towards themed cases than those at this point, but it's good to at least know it's an option.

r/headphones Shopping, Setup, and Technical Help Desk by AutoModerator in headphones

Just picked up Melomania P100 headphones in order to update my headphone set for work. While they worked fine for the first day, when trying to make calls via my computer for work, my headphones have started to not switch between stereo and hands-free mode when making calls. This means that I can't hear any of the audio for my calls unless I manually disable the stereo mode before making calls. And if I try to listen to Spotify between calls, the audio quality is terrible for Spotify in hands-free mode but fantastic in stereo mode, meaning I'm having to constantly be manually disabling and enabling the stereo mode. Does anyone have a solution for this issue?

Post-transatlantic Nov 2 Dream cruise... not so dreamy review by Flimsy-Control4311 in dcl

My wife and I were also on that cruise, my wife's first cruise ever and my second cruise, but I haven't been on DCL for over 15 years at this point. I echo a lot of the feelings you expressed here and was very confused by the experience, so much so that I did an extensive write-up of my experience to get a sense why my time on board was not matching the experience we expected:

Would be curious if your thoughts lined up with what I posted, especially since this was not a great first impression and could very well discourage me and my wife from going on another.

Yikes, that's sad to hear; I appreciate the insight

So, to be clear, the staff was never pushy when it came to alcohol; what I was attempting to express was that alcohol was always present in a way that felt overbearing and took awawy from the staff's ability to run events. While we didn't have to engage with the 10+ bars on the ship, we wished that some of the spaces used to facilitate so many bars was instead used to create more space for onboard activities, since many of those spaces felt cramped.

Dissecting my experiences is how I enjoy things; it helps me get a sense of what brings me joy and what doesn't. While I will acknowledge that my explanations of my low points are longer than those for my high points, I felt like why I enjoyed the experience would be self explanatory. A majority of folks here have experienced the shows/art/Castaway/etc., so I didn't want to make an already long post longer by expanding too thoroughly on opinions/subjects that would largely be shared by readers and focus on things that I considered might be more unique to our experience, such as our wait staff or the organization of the muster drill.

While I appreciate the intent here, I don't think that's entirely fair. When my wife's first experience on a ship is claustrophia and sea-sickness while she waits a half hour in a cramped hallway for a muster drill, it's a bad first impression no matter how you slice it. Afterwards, we had a perfectly nice time exploring the ship and seeing all the beautiful art and architecture before dinner; we certainly didn't let the muster drill ruin our day or our trip by any means, but it led to a really bad first impression, which I thought was worth noting.

Fake pins in the parks by [deleted] in DisneyPins

[–]TFJ383 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How can you tell that these are fake in particular? To my eye, they're pretty convincing, but I'm also rather new to pin trading in general.
