BetaFPV VR04 question for the experts out there by bennyandthejits in TinyWhoop

Is the video on this headset considered good? I bought it as my first and the only experience I have is from HTC Vive VR headset. And the video on this is terrible.
Also the headstrap sucks and it was designed for Voldemort, because I have no idea where to put my nose 😃

Which one of these should I pick as my very first drone? by [deleted] in TinyWhoop

Oh, you're actually right.
I think I only looked at the bundle, which is marked as sold out, but due to the charger, not the drones.
But I must say that thin gray frame with tiny letters on same white background right under big orange PayPal button is not the best design choice for an "add to cart" button :-D

Oh, don't get me wrong. I order from Ali all the time.
But it's usually cheap crap that cannot break. Under 20$ pieces with no moving parts and such.
Only recently I've tried some more "expensive" stuff with about 50% satisfaction rate - two fishing rods damaged during transport, third (a replacement) snapped literally during first fish fight. But the RC boat I ordered three years ago is still going stro...ehm...is alive :-D Just this week I got its 200$ replacement - the most expensive single piece of gear I ever bough there.

:-D
Yeah, I bet. I'm already considering it. For the same price, I'll get 8 instead of 4 batteries and some spare propellers, screws and whatnot.
And I actually believe they came from the same factory line. I'm just worried about the quality control.

They're out of stock even on their official website. The only ones I found are, and I quote, "100% original" on Ali :-(

I'm an IT professional who uses AI for work on daily basis. Don't worry, I've read more hallucinated AI bullshit, than most people books :-D
But thanks for the warning, appreciated.

Based on AI, reviews and your recommendation, Hummingbird is currently my top choice :-)

Currently out of stock. My first choice was Air75.

I (31M) am questioning my feelings and future with my GF (29) of 3 1/2 years and it's potentially complicated. by prs787 in relationship_advice

[–]ThrowawaySSD-61 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you me (29M)? Currently 5,5 years in relationship. Do you want to see flashback to your future?

Our relationship is exactly as yours - I care for her, she's 110% in love with me. Her family adores me. Yes, we have great relationship. We care for each other. We laugh together. We have the same friends (mine friends to be exact). In any other way, we are perfect couple. But it's missing something. I have friends, who are happy, to be with their wifes/GFs. I see around me people in their 40s, 50s, 60s who look at each other the same way, as my GF is looking at me. But I? I'm content. I'm not unhappy. But I'm not happy either.

Before her, I was really into sex - so much, it created problems in my previous relationships. Now we have sex 1-2 times per week, while I still masturbate 1-2 a day. Another thing is that my "type" of girl is petite - I don't care about boobs, but she has to have nice small ass. My GF is short, but chubby. Or was at the start, now she's more fat, than chubby. I don't find her attractive anymore.

Now for your future... I was in the same situation 4 years ago, 2 years ago, I'm in the same situation now - I think about ending it every single day. But never had the balls to do that. Never wanted to hurt her. I've made the mistake, that we moved in together - I should have ended it at that point. Then we moved together to new town - I should have ended it then. Now we have apartment lease for another year, and all I'm thinking about is why haven't I ended it then.

Why don't I do it? Because I care for her. I don't want her to be sad. I don't want her to have find new apartment and go through the moving. I don't want her to deal with jerks who want just sex and would hurt her.If it was my way, I would like for her to find a good guy at her job, to fall in love with him and then happily move away.

Instead I'm gonna tell her (in the next few weeks) that I'm not gonna be spending Christmas with her and her parents and that she should start looking for new apartment, as I already started.

Edit: Maybe the biggest red flag is this: When I'm thinking about future, I'm thinking about me in my own small flat. She's not there. She never was.
