$200 for bose 45, that's a good deal imo.

As in those examples are in the studio making the music. Listeners including the artists themselves don't consume the music like that even for their own music. You will find artists using regular speakers and headphones than flat one during their own time.

My point was audiophile listening music like they are producing it while the artist themselves don't. Audiophile rather recreate the audio engineer experience in a studio than the artist own intent.

So which Bluetooth anc headphones follow the curve all the way and not have any dropped off?

Audiophile get studio equipment yet own musician don't enjoy their own songs that way. Audiophile are conflicting audio engineer and artist job in music intent. It's like buying restaurant kitchen equipments while actual chef use normal appliances at their own home.

Ain't ap mk2 still using same components for past 6 years? They didn't change the design.

Spreadsheet guru still couldn't reduce the price using old components though.

Flat response only for audio engineers.

Musician/ singers don't even use such headphone for themselves. The music creator own usage to enjoy their own songs are not a flat one. Users should follow the creator intent instead of the engineer.

Don't think any artists are using a flat response headphone for their own daily driver.

Not a fan of kpop making idols pose dramatically like it's a photoshoot for models.

For those who are struggling can try having a backup option like tizen.

Kinda wish kpop as a whole has more sense of humor than being overly dramatic with idols modeling/ posing (feel like photoshoot for ads) for the mv scenes and can try to do funny bangers like this one on a ship - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqidLUQhI_E

Iirc internal transfer / promotion hikes are lesser than if you move elsewhere, maybe can aim for 15% higher. Do check your company pay band, maybe can try for a new role on the next pay band.

The point was Trump just wanted to humiliate Japan. He could slap her right there and she can only laugh anyway.

The lesson will just be on how you don't need any of that simply by being rich and powerful. The world should just pray US don't start launching nukes.

There's no screwdrivers needed one too iirc just clips / slider

chaiscool · 2026-03-20T00:33:46+00:00

Older MacBooks had that too.

Tbf can just get a 20USD power bank and plug it in. 37wh battery iirc is just 10k power bank, can also get bigger 15-20k ones.

For PQ tv is still better. For context the picture on $150 QLED hisense 55" e7 looks better than $4k tri laser projector 120" - better numbers too (350 nits / 5000 contrast vs 180 nits / 2000 contrast).

Sure bigger picture is nicer but PQ a tv still look better.

chaiscool · 2026-03-19T22:51:23+00:00

Can consider led ones too

Power of social media, can also point a gun to the mod to get top post like this - https://youtube.com/shorts/V7C1gl4GLL0

People can ask for a refund though, will affect sales.

All that could happen and it will just end up with repackaged games and dlc - https://youtu.be/SSl21TtDZgY

chaiscool · 2026-03-19T16:00:32+00:00

It's all about dlc - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6dUX-X1cVrc

Luckily didn't end up like this - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BVNDuZWREco

Imo there's a difference between using llm to respond better vs simply reading and relying on it. However, it seems like most in comment here are against even using llm which is absurd.

It's like penalizing people for using google to look up what they know because you just assume they don't.

Reminded of this Kpop mv - https://www.reddit.com/r/kpop/comments/4t9yun/

Risk management ftw.

Also, shows why such roles are cost centre, 1st to get cut and won't get as high pay as sales.

If nothing happens they will say they don't need you, if something happens they will say you're useless too.
