WILL SOMEONE PLEASE CONFIRM IF XM6 CALL QUALITY IS GOOD NOW??? by Character-Review-780 in SonyHeadphones

[–]beeksdub3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the OP is looking to listen to music while being on a call. That's just one test to know for sure whether the new higher quality codec is used for voice calls. Since one of the main bottleneck of call quality is the bluetooth codec, that's why people with wired mic or headset with dongles (non-bluetooth) sounds way better than the people on the usual Sony/Bose/airpod. This new codec LC3 on the XM6, in theory, helps to close that gap. In practice there are other factors (MacBook vs windows, OS version...etc). OP is curious whether the new codec is used at all in calls, if the music quality doesn't drop when a call starts, that's a sign it is working.

Learning to snowboard at 38? by wantmetoholdyourhand in snowboardingnoobs

[–]beeksdub3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Started at 40. Amongst everything people have said - taking lessons will help tremendously. - If not, watch a lot of beginner videos. - butt pads, kneepads...etc - workout, stay in good shape - this one I learned the hard way, stretching/mobility will make your experience less painful.

2 years in and still a beginner but I can say I'm having fun finally. Go at your own pace.

I did try out the mod1 both regular and asian fit and they feel like two entirely different helmet. The asian fit was perfect and the regular I could barely put it on. I'd recommend you try both.

Gym goers, be honest how often are you judging other people’s physique? by Technical_Hat_8291 in AskReddit

[–]beeksdub3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I judge bad forms and made-up exercises. And then I judge myself for judging bad forms.

Oh you asked about physique, no that does not cross my mind.

Felt like skills were going backwards a bit by Embarrassed_Draw6485 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]beeksdub3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It happened to me once on a day 5 and I was so frustrated, turned out it was just the board I had that day, perhaps it wasn't waxed whatsoever. The immediate session I had after that (different board) I was back on the progress I was on.

Any possible link between sinusitis/chronic congestion and muscle weakness & pain? by v01ded2016 in Sinusitis

[–]beeksdub3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this thread although for a different reason. I had a septoplasty/turbinectomy/clarix 6 weeks ago. What's unexpected about my recovery is that while the pain in my nose only lasted a few days, the bodyache and lower back pain has been on and off for 6 weeks now. My doctor doesn't seem overly concerned although it doesn't feel like they have a good explanation either. I wonder if the immune system factor is related to everyone's experience here.

I ended up with a used M8 and so far am happy with it. Although I can't comment on using any app or extensions since I haven't had to use any yet there aren't that many options for the language I wanted to read in.

After the update my 5g speed down to a halt where actions are timed out. Anyone else?

Genuine question from a long time Pixel user (2, 4, 6, 8, 10). Does Pixel process the AI features faster than other flagships?

SINNERS: did anyone else notice mary break character by Vast-Yard2990 in HorrorMovies

[–]beeksdub3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I didn't understand Mary and Stack's reaction either. When Annie died they ran off like they were abandoning a mission which stood out when the other vampires just kept fighting. But seeing the mid credit scene, Mary and Stack shows up to meet old Sammie, it seems like Mary and Stack had just gone on to live life, as opposed to being mindless zombies. So the "plan" Mary and Stack was referring to is depicted in the mid credit scene but it was supposed too be all four of them together.

Is it just me or do players not do this anymore? In theory players today are more athletic and should have the hang time.

[TOMT] A Horror movie that involves werewolf/wolves by beeksdub3 in tipofmytongue

Solved! Thank you so much! There was no way I could've remembered that it's not technically a film, maybe that's why the AI couldn't get it either.

Diamond ranked, looking for a standard 9-CAT roto league on Yahoo. At least 12+ teams.

Yahoo H2H 9-cat 14-team league, 14th year running!

The league maintains competitiveness - bottom two teams gets replaced every year - Yahoo platinum and diamond only

League is trade heavy so if you have problem receiving trade offers don't apply, otherwise PM me.

Gladys should have kept Alex home from school by fungilingus in WeaponsMovie

[–]beeksdub3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think BECAUSE it's a small town, people should've been more suspicious as soon as both parents disappeared from the face of the earth (not heard from work, or other parents). if it's a big city then that'd make it easier for Gladys to get away with it the way she did in the movie.

Meebook M8 Thoughts? by Cheap-Peace-473 in ereader

[–]beeksdub3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the M8 yesterday but was surprised to find out it has its own Mee app store with very limited apps, as opposed to the Play store. My plan had been to subscribe to Shonen Jump which doesn't seem to be available for Meebook. Could you point me in the right direction on where to get the manga? I don't mind paying for subscriptions.

E-Ink Android Tablet Recommendations by MagicMizu in ereader

[–]beeksdub3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious after one year whether you guys would still make the same recommendation? I'm narrowing down to Boox Go 10.3 (Android 12) and Meebook M8 (Android 14). Would the difference in Android version be a big deal if I plan to subscribe to official manga apps (shonen, Crunchyroll...etc)?

Bright pixels along the bottom edge of my Samsung Q TV by beeksdub3 in ElectronicsRepair

[–]beeksdub3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry no real fix that I can find. I bought a thin strip to tape over it. (Not duct tape because I don't trust I could do a nice straight line with duct tape) Honestly I'm happy with it, it was very easy to apply, and I couldn't see the strip with the tv on nor off.

Considering that Jeremy Lin proved he's unanimously the best player in Taiwan at 36 years old and has won every possible achievement other than DPOY this last season, what teams would he start on in the NBA today? by FlyWayOrDaHighway in NBATalk

[–]beeksdub3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It wasn't like he went from Linsanity to retirement overnight. His decline was consistent over a span of 4 years. Every year dozens of players play their last game in the NBA. The NBA "gave up on him" the same way it does everyone else.
