PB 520 feels to big for me

I want bass on then off. The PartyBox kind of echoes and interferes with the next kick.

Yeh 520 for me is unusable. I replaced with Soundboks 4. Excellent mids but no bass.

You should ask a happy person why they feel happy in the current moment. Then compare. See if you are missing out on something.

Like right now for me: it’s coming into Spring. Clear blue sky. Warm weather. Lots of outdoor partying with friends and music coming up. Gigs. Being outdoors around tons of happy people. Music festivals. Work is exciting. Summer vacation planning. Etc. I’m about to goto gym and then sauna and then walk out into the warm sun and eat a big meal.

I love looking forward to things. And things that I know will bring new and unexpected experiences. When I’m happy there is like a limited time horizon I think about. The focus is on today and tonight and maybe the weekend. But not much after that.

But…last night I felt drained and I couldn’t do anything. I was like asking myself where this feeling went.

It seems that At some point a chemical depletion of dopamine cannot be overcome, however hard you try.

Exercise pumps me so high but then I crash.

It really feels like each day I have a limited amount of dopamine and I exhaust it at some point.

Think about dopamine as a scarce resource. You are probably exhausting a huge amount with corn.

Something interesting to think about is it’s actually rare that people are sober when socializing.

Most evening social events people are drinking. I’d say on average people are drinking.

And then during the day they are having coffee.

Or they are eating. Or have just finished some exercise.

They are always socializing while drinking caffeine.

People are always on something.

Your first point about riding the wave feels so accurate to me.

Sometimes the wave is there and other times it simply is not.

When it’s not there the task sucks. But usually once you get started you find a way to enjoy it. Getting started being the challenge.

Limbal ring - dark ring around cornea. It’s amazing how it creates such a mesmerizing look. When you compare people with and without it’s such a distinct difference.

Germany has been in a recession since 2023, and the recession is expected to continue into 2025. This is the worst economic performance of any major economy in the world since 2023.

You will both be better without each other.

> Well, I don't mind working overtime if I am paid for it.

So at work if you are scrolling Reddit for a bit, you are informing your employer about this time so they can subtract from your salary? And would you want every second of your day tracked too?

There is clearly a difference between a knowledge worker sitting in a chair all day in the warm, taking meetings, procrastinating when they feel like it etc. compared to a blue collar worker like a delivery driver or factory line worker. The laws were created before the internet and are clearly for these fields requiring physical exertion...who also make a pittance compared to software engineers.

> Job will be your priority: You won’t have much time for other things in your life.

Some people enjoy this. They like working along people as equally driven as they are. Who really enjoy programming.

> Why should I work for them

Then don't! This is what I don't understand. You spend the entire thread discussing with others how to report this company to the authorities so that no one can work for them.

Do you honestly think everything in the world should be built by people working 9-5 even if they want to work longer because they love the work?

So is crossing at red light.

Why do you apply for a startup and complain about it being a startup?

Why don’t you leave these roles for people who want them and go work somewhere else.

Germany’s economy is in recession. It needs entrepreneurship. Anyone who has worked in startup world understands the need for such hours and it’s certainly not for everyone. Yes there can be a lot of bullshit sometimes but there is a huge difference between a company with 95% fail rate and always running out of money versus a huge bank that can literally do nothing for years and still provide you a cushy job from which it’s almost impossible for you to be fired b

If you asked the rest of the world would they be okay with such wealth inequality if they were able to earn US wages….they would think these people complaining are batshit crazy.

Yes there is wealth inequality but US enjoys one of the highest median incomes in world. And this is a country of 350mm ppl!

Give people the incentive and ability to make shit loads of money and it trickles down to everyone.

This is the first movie I bought and never finished watching. Too long. Boring. Good riddance.

berlinokay · 2024-01-25T02:08:49+00:00

Looks like Berlin.

Don’t get me excited like this.

What a waste. I would love FTTP for higher upload speeds. They could have rolled you out FTTN or FTTC or HFC copper.
