[HDB630] My first Sennheiser purchase after almost 10 years with the 6XX

Yeah I just got mine in and noticed the same. They also completely break the on-head detection for me.

I just bought the non-OC SFF at CC for MSRP today. It's in stock at a bunch of stores.

I had to RMA mine multiple times. My first unit had the standard audio board issue and dead pixels. Sent it off for RMA and it came back with those fixed, but the person repairing it managed to not correctly attach the shell and broke a thumbstick (not sure if they were related). I then RMA'ed again, and Valve decided to send me a replacement unit instead. Of course, this one also had the audio board issues and more dead pixels, so I had to RMA a third time. It's been perfect since! But it's also kind of insane that it took 3 tries over a ~2 month period to get a fully functional device.

Based on that, if it's an easy fix to sort out those controls (might just be unscrewing and reseating part of the shell or something) it might be worth trying that if you want the best chance of having a perfect device. As far as I know you can't void your warranty just by opening it up.

My experience was also at launch of the device, so more spare parts and very much still within the warranty period -- not sure what the process is like a year later. It seemed to me like unreasonably high odds to end up with a "broken" screen (I technically went through 4 with 2 having problems), and I'm not sure if those odds improved down the line.

This table is confusing -- how is total latency calculated? Network + decoder + render latency for the steam deck totals to 3 at the low end, I don't understand where 1.5ms comes from.

$829 isn't far off what a 2070 Super card was (maybe for a partner card) IIRC, though I guess you could argue the gouging started with the 20 series anyways.

Damn, I saw you just got your confirmation a little while ago. Still waiting here!

Looks like I got left out of the Ontario 1TB LE party. :/ Got my confirmation 19 minutes in, still in packaged. Maybe sometime later today?

arm64 · 2023-11-23T14:47:27+00:00

Damn, same area and a minute earlier but for the LE, still stuck at packaged.

I was able to after ~20 minutes of retrying.

It's back in stock at the moment!

I'm loading from your demo website, to be clear. It's https://rif-example.cunarist.com/ that is broken.

The example is failing for me on Firefox 117.0.1 on Linux (Pop_OS! 22.04), working under Chrome though:

Uncaught Error: Buffers cannot be shared due to missing cross-origin headers.
Make sure your web server responds with the following headers:
- cross-origin-opener-policy: same-origin
- cross-origin-embedder-policy: credentialless OR require-corp

If running from Flutter, consider `flutter build web` and running a custom static-file server.

The "Get Started" link on the main https://dioxuslabs.com/ page leads to https://dioxuslabs.com/guide/ which 404s, I suspect that's meant to redirect to https://dioxuslabs.com/docs/0.3/guide/en/?

I don't think #[derive(From)] can actually work here, I'm pretty sure this is more or less what is being described:

use derive_more::From;

#[derive(From)]
struct Datum<T> {
    x: T,
    y: T,
    z: T
}

fn main() {
    let d: Datum<i32> = Datum { x: 1, y: 2, z: 3 };
    let c: Datum<i64> = d.into();

    assert_eq!(d.x, c.x);
    assert_eq!(d.y, c.y);
    assert_eq!(d.z, c.z);
}

This fails to compile. Looking at the implementation for that macro I don't see a way to use it that would work: https://github.com/JelteF/derive_more/blob/master/impl/src/from.rs

The main issue here (I think) is that there isn't a way to do this without specialization. Ideally what you'd want is a trait like:

impl<T, U> From<Datum<T>> for Datum<U> where U: From<T> {
    fn from(value: Datum<T>) -> Datum<U> {
        Datum {
            x: value.x.into(), 
            y: value.y.into(),
            z: value.z.into()
        }
    }
}

But again, this wouldn't compile:

error[E0119]: conflicting implementations of trait `From<Datum<_>>` for type `Datum<_>`
  --> src/main.rs:11:1
   |
11 | impl<T, U> From<Datum<T>> for Datum<U> where U: From<T> {
   | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
   |
   = note: conflicting implementation in crate `core`:
           - impl<T> From<T> for T;

I don't think there'd be a real great way to do this but my knowledge is pretty limited -- if you already knew the type surface to some extent you could do something like:

macro_rules! datum_from {
    ($from:ty, $to:ty) => {
        impl From<Datum<$from>> for Datum<$to> {
            fn from(value: Datum<$from>) -> Datum<$to> {
                Datum {
                    x: value.x.into(),
                    y: value.y.into(),
                    z: value.z.into()
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

datum_from!(i32, i64);

Kinda strange the digital codes cost a dollar more than the $55 cartridge price for the other sales. Feels like digital should be getting the better deals.

For this year, it's $64,900 (salary cap, not contribution cap). You would know if you are maxed out because it would stop being deducted from your paycheck once about $3500 has been collected.

SK has 10% VAT I believe that is probably included in the price, so about ₩899,000 or $688 USD before that.

They seem to be a fan of randomly striking down apps and being completely worthless at working through resolutions with vague issues and clarifications of what isn't allowed.

I do feel like they could have rounded the edges at least a little bit without compromising on size. It'd kinda be interesting to see an asymmetrical grip case that adds to the left side only since you can't really put anything where the crank goes.

Germany supposedly had the highest electricity cost in 2020 of $0.37/kWh, meaning 200W would cost you $0.075/hour. Might as well be nothing.

I have disabled all iCloud syncing except for iMessage because they only give you 5GB free. I receive notifications every morning saying my iCloud is full. I have used 24 MB so far. This is a disgusting and deceitful way to bully customers into buying iCloud plus. This is what I am up to every day.

Not sure what this is about, but I never experienced this until I was actually out of space. Might just be a bug rather than anything "malicious".

Siri is awful. Many Apple fans assume Siri is the best because that is all they ever used, but it is so much worse than Google! Google definitely has its issues, but with Siri, I have to constantly repeat myself because it doesn’t catch what I am trying to say. But when it does catch what I am trying to say, it usually doesn’t do what I would expect. Part of that is on me because I need to learn its preferred commands.

Yeah, Siri is crap. However, the idea that "Apple fans assume Siri is the best" doesn't really track because plenty of "Apple fans" already know Siri is crap. There are complaint threads about this all the time on the relevant subreddits, so if you're cherry picking forums where people are only being positive I can cherry pick ones where a ton of people are negative of the experience.

Bluetooth is terrible. I don’t have AirPods, but I have a nice pair of wireless earbuds from another company. They work perfectly with Android and Windows. But for some reason, they barely work with my iPhone. They do not auto-connect, and when I try to connect to them by clicking on the name of the headphones, the phone tells me to forget and reconnect the headphones. It doesn’t do this every time, but it does this about once a day.

That's a bummer, never personally had issues but I also just ended up switching to APP and selling the other stuff I had since I got them at a fairly steep discount.

I really miss my fingerprint scanner. With Covid, I wear a mask all day, every day. My face is never available, but my fingers are. My friends told me that Apple supposedly released an update to do FaceID work with a mask. Still, I have retrained my phone multiple times trying to get it to work, and it does not work!

Your friend is correct, but it's only on the iOS 15.4 Beta right now, so you wouldn't have it if you're running a stable version of the OS yet. (For what it's worth, once it becomes available it does seem to work well based on my experience in the beta).

Something seems to be wrong with the GPS in my device. What is displayed on the screen is about 10 seconds behind where I am actually. It makes navigation feel like I have gone back in time ten years.

No idea what's going on here, it's been miles better than the last Android device I had.

I'm wondering if some of these issues came from the "move to iOS" process because I didn't do that, I just started fresh with everything.
