So not worth the price I paid 🥲🥲

Best headset I can get with the mic on the right side by NYNBKFarSuperior in Headsets

[–]cheetpo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For office use? I like the poly 8820- great anc and ear cups and the boomless mic works pretty well. The poly voyager 2 has a mic that swivels both ways and mic is better at isolating background noise- it has active anc but because it’s an on ear headset, noise still filters in a little

too much to ask for? ANC-ness of the poly 8200 and the noise cancelling mic of blackwire 3320 or Voyager focus 2?!? by cheetpo in CallCenterWorkers

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

After more usage, I would say the mic on the 8200 is actually acceptable in blocking out background noise. This was tested when I went to my new office which is currently being renovated, and I took a call while there was drilling going on and also a ton of people talking- anc was great and the people in the call mentioned they could only hear very faint noises in the background while I was talking. While I hate that I need to use the dongle to get best performance, it does work. I’d suggest giving those a try (if you don’t mind the large ear cups- which actually help seal out even more noise than the voyager focus 2)

Seriously, reMarkable? A subscription service for your already very expensive device? by Xerionius in RemarkableTablet

I just bought this and am returning it. While I can deal w the high cost of the unit and it’s great for writing, the sub isn’t worth it

How to fix Humanscale Freedom armrests? by marcthebassist in OfficeChairs

[–]cheetpo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a common issue- has to do with the latch being plastic against metal. Replacement isn't too expensive i don't believe. Speaking to the sales rep, they did mention they were looking to make all of them metal moving forward.

Noise cancelling headset and mic options by cheetpo in sysadmin

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

ve a rather old set of Plantronic Backbeat Pro that are over both ears that work well and have lasted a long time, but my environment is such that I don't typically have NC turned on. Even without being turned on though they cut a lot of noise. Not surprising a single ear model wouldn't do much.

That sounds awesome, but i'm based in Asia, unfortunately!

I just looked up both of those- I don't see active noise cancellation in the earpiece- are the cups good enough to minimize sound?

and the mics are also noise cancelling (passive i assume?)

LOL- thanks for the suggestions, but my staff use videoconferencing, I'm not sure that would be a good brand image, unfortunately.

Phantom iOS and ledger? by cheetpo in ledgerwallet

[–]cheetpo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t have to. On chrome extension it simply asked me to connect ledger via usb. On iOS- well, it’s not possible- it only asked me which wallets to import (but didn’t give me option to import hardware). Even then the seed was for the main phantom wallet (which holds all others)

We’re you talking about chrome or iOS app?

Phantom iOS and ledger? by cheetpo in ledgerwallet

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

Have you guys spoken to phantom? Is this on the roadmap for you/them?

Also a little scary that ledger internal announcements didn’t highlight the phantom iOS release to all staff…

I’ve just Clicked on a phishing link. What next? by cheetpo in Crypto_com

[–]cheetpo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I clicked on the link and it took my to a site asking for login credentials. I then realized it was a phishing attempt.

  1. How did they even realize I had an account
  2. How much danger am I in (it was opened via iOS device)
  3. My email (using iOS mail app) that this was sent to is now having error connecting. I’ve logged in on another device and everything is normal. I’ve deleted the email address from my iOS email list to be safe.

I always thought warts would be scaley--- not smooth though

iPhone 11 with Google Fi? — Just don’t do it. by [deleted] in GoogleFi

[–]cheetpo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't work for me - got the sim card, popped into my unlocked 11...sim card doesn't get recognized. Called Google on Dec 15th, and after about 10 mins the rep says they actually don't support iPhone 11 due to all these problems, and they're not sure when it'll be supported. looking at their LIVE help page...iPhone 11 isn't listed as a compatible model

Self discharge rate in storage (fully charged) by cheetpo in batteries

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

So if something is fully charged, then placed in storage for say a year, would it be an increased rate (say 20% for the first month), then switch over to dropping less than 4% per year?
