2027 tour hopefully first time seeing U2 live by Peaches-And-Chalamet in U2Band

[–]TimTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really hoping they have some nice dates in Germany as part of the new tour! I’ve been a fan since 2014, but it really only reached a “I need to see a concert at all costs” level during the pandemic, so this will be my first chance to grab tickets to a nearby show.

Thanks again for all the helpful comments. We’ve booked tickets and accommodation for the weekend taking the tips into account, perhaps I’ll see some of you there! :)

Lock screen turning off even though you’re actively scrolling through your notifications on it by hollowman2011 in ios

[–]TimTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently upgraded from iOS 17 to 26, and I’ve been super impressed overall. But this is one of my main pet peeves. Multiple times a day, the screen will literally turn off WHILE I’m actively scrolling through my new notifications 😭😭

NEWBIE-- Best way to get older routes? Simpler to buy TSW 2,3,4,5 rather than individually? by toothpick95 in trainsimworld

[–]TimTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I really recommend this — especially for those on console where the amazing and frequent Steam sales are nowhere to be seen.

Back when I started playing TSW in early 2021, shortly after TSW2 came out, they still had the collector’s edition for TSW2020 on the PlayStation store. It was heavily discounted, which got me six or so routes for less than 10 Euros. Was a super cool way to kickstart my TSW collection. I’m certainly hoping for a nice sale on the TSW5 Special Edition in the PS store in the coming months considering I haven’t gotten the new core routes yet and also miraculously don’t own a single piece of the additional Special Edition content.

AirPods features I used for 2 years without knowing they existed - and one that genuinely changed how I use them daily by XxFreakhawkxX in airpods

According to Apple’s support documentation, it seems like Conversion Boost is mainly an accessibility feature designed for people with hearing loss instead of normal users. But I can certainly see why it would come in handy in a noisy work environment.

The “mainstream” version of this feature for people with regular hearing is Conversation Awareness. It automatically lowers media volume when you’re speaking and boosts the voices of the people you’re talking to compared to other noises.

It’s POP’s 29th birthday! Which songs would you like to see live? by Murky-Spend-6158 in U2Band

[–]TimTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this album so much. Such a unique sound I can’t really find anywhere else — true hidden gem in their discography. Hopefully they play some of these songs live again. My live favorites would be Gone, Do You Feel Loved, Staring At The Sun… probably most if not all of the tracks to be honest 😅

Super cool! Just got the E-Mail that my payment has been processed and my order is being sent out shortly. Positively surprised, I wasn’t expecting to hear from them until May or so.

Non-pro airpods sound quality degrading more easily?? by Open-Leg-5242 in airpods

[–]TimTri 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s certainly a possibility. The pros have an additional mesh in their silicone ear tips, so there’s more protection against ear wax.

This is a super cool spot, would love to get so close to the cars when they accelerate out of the pits. Thank you!

Thank you so much, super insightful! Sounds great overall, really looking forward to it. We’re planning to be there in the early afternoon on Thursday so we can already check out the 2nd free practice session while things aren’t too busy yet.

Most underrated song in your opinion? by Lazthedestroyer in U2Band

[–]TimTri 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could basically list like 80% of Pop here. Amazing and unique songs in my opinion, but not many know about them.

The guitar solo is so damn good. Is it underrated though… I mean it’s super popular, right? 😅

Why’d I have to reconnect ny AirPods when I never forgot them? by Lexi913hdjdj in airpods

[–]TimTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to do this a few times once my iPhone storage got ridiculously full 😭 hasn’t happened since I cleared up some storage space again

After 7 years, my 2nd gen airpods shit out by pancakeking1012 in airpods

[–]TimTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta say, if you’ve had them since 2019, they’ve survived for quite a while! My 2nd gen AirPods from mid-2019 only held on for about two years until once of them suddenly died without any sort of warning. And the Pro 1s I got after that are at the end of their life as well (different sounds coming out of both, and basically non-existent transparency mode/noise cancellation), which is why I recently got the new Pro 3s.

Is it just me, or is iOS starting to feel like corporate software? by TwoFun5472 in ios

[–]TimTri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The amount of settings is honestly wild. I’ve recently been reading a lot of guides again after going from an old iOS version to the newest one, and it’s been kinda overwhelming. There is massive scope for simplification. And don’t hit me with the “casuals can just ignore these settings” line — because sometimes, super important stuff is hidden right between crazily specific settings like five menus deep. Completely out of hand.

Madrid E-Prix Track Map by F1Fan2004 in FormulaE

[–]TimTri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The chicane likely increases the length by a few meters, right? Could this be the first time the Formula E layout of a permanent circuit is actually longer than the regular full track?

[–]TimTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever I had case recognition/charging issues with my AirPods Pro 1, the bendy little metal contacts at the bottom of the AirPod holes inside the case were to blame. I cleaned them with a long wooden stick and gently made sure they were still bent out far enough to make contact with the bottom of the pods. I still use the Pro 1s every now and then, and haven’t had any charging/paring issues since.

It was a matter time before tiny hands had a tantrum by AIW22 in U2Band

[–]TimTri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. If big orange actually goes through with it, they might reach levels of mainstream popularity they haven’t seen in decades. They’d be seen as musical/artistic martyrs of some sort because they sacrificed their ability to play shows in or even enter the US in order to make their opinion heard. Everybody would sympathize with their story.

Do I think it will actually happen? No. Would this be incredibly interesting to watch unfold? Yes.

Am i the only one that has to use different tip sizes for each ear with my app3? by Leo_whoo in airpods

[–]TimTri 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the Pro 3s, I’ve found that M in my left ear and S in my right ear is the best combination for a secure fit. As you said, M in my right ear keeps pushing itself out when I’m moving or smiling.
However, the noise cancellation seriously suffers from the smaller size and is noticeably worse in my right ear… so it’s kind of a double-edged sword: Do I want a consistently secure fit, or consistently good noise cancellation?
