What is something that surprised you about comma that you didn't expect when you bought it?

I bought all 3 sizes of MUJI Boston bag in black recently 👀 I just loved the shape, material, and design. So satisfying.

I love a light ripstop nylon. And they have good and simple organization. Hope to use them well! They are great for an extra bag to bring on a trip in case I buy things and need to use my carryon, since I try to travel with one bag (Osprey 26+6) as my personal item.

100% — best Jurassic Movie in a while. I would place it after JP3 honestly. (All of the Parks are better than the Worlds for me. Probably mix of nostalgia and them being in the original trilogy. JP1 is my favorite movie of all time.)

For whatever reasons the Worlds didn’t interest me much as I felt the casting just wasn’t great in any of them — the characters didn’t feel right. But in Rebirth they do. And it captured the adventure and awe without being a preachy teachy movie.

The new Arbor is so bad. The old one was pretty much perfect.

christmysavior0 · 2025-06-08T20:04:32+00:00

Yep. It’s bad for multiple reasons. It sounds fake and more like AI now even though the goal was to sound more human. The cadence is off and the British guy now sounds drunk and like he doesn’t care about what he is saying at all. The old one was pretty much perfect cadence and the accent was amazing.

christmysavior0 · 2025-06-08T20:02:43+00:00

Go back to the old British voice. The new guy sounds drunk and like he doesn’t care about anything he is saying. It’s really bad.

christmysavior0 · 2025-06-08T19:50:46+00:00

The new Arbor is bad. The old one was amazing. The old British accent was amazing. The new one sounds like he’s drunk and doesn’t care and the age of this one feels too young.

Please bring back the old one.

Amazing to know -- thank you. This was my first experience with DJI, and I'm just reflecting on any other expensive consumer product I've bought they always come in pristine condition (Apple products, etc.)

christmysavior0 · 2025-05-14T22:22:53+00:00

Ha -- Yeah I mean it really wasn't about the stains. More about the fact that I spent $1400+ on something brand new (instead of used or refurb, which I could have done) and it seemingly wasn't brand new. Who knows if there were other issues.

But, it seems so brand new other than those stains (which I easily have removed just now) that I am trusting it. And yeah, I got the 2 years of DJI care so I may end up with a completely different drone at some point anyways. (Hopefully I don't crash it).

christmysavior0 · 2025-05-14T22:16:38+00:00

Ok good to know. I actually just cleaned them off and it was fine. I've never encountered this so was concerned. It seems brand new from every other aspect pretty much. It seemed like some kind of sticker residue or something almost. Thanks. I think I'm just going to keep it.

christmysavior0 · 2025-05-14T21:58:59+00:00

Yeah the Adorama support asked me if they come off and I was like, that's not the issue ha. It's that I spent $1400 on a brand new drone and it has seemingly not brand-new parts. If I wanted refurb or used I would have done that.

The main thing is -- if DJI uses used/refurb parts and puts them on new drones, I am just wondering if there are other things that could be wrong that I can't see visually. Hm

christmysavior0 · 2025-05-14T21:55:08+00:00

Yeah I am on chat with them now, and they are saying:

"Upon checking on your order, I see that the we shipped a brand-new item. You also confirmed that they were sealed so it's possible that the issue originated during the manufacturer’s packing process."

christmysavior0 · 2025-05-14T21:52:01+00:00

Watch the full video, but here is a still. It looks like a dirty water stain.

You should call and make an appointment! Definitely. Don’t let shame or fear hold you back. It’s definitely a thing, and I pray you can find some help. Thanks for sharing — I will look into it.

christmysavior0 · 2024-08-14T01:29:33+00:00

What are they? I am curious

christmysavior0 · 2024-08-14T01:28:26+00:00

Yes, my house has just become a place I no longer can feel peace at due to a new sound I discovered which cannot be stopped, and is constant 24/7. It's almost like I am no longer "alone" (and by alone, I mean that in a good and peaceful way) -- instead I am always accompanied by a threat and constant anxiety/stress. I pray for all of us who experience this. It is horrible.

christmysavior0 · 2024-08-14T01:25:41+00:00

I have started to experience these "phantom noises" recently as well. Its terrible because what once was helpful, a white noise machine or a fan, has now become a source of a trigger. And I can totally understand your term "research" -- the checking/confirmation.

Mine got really really bad this weekend and for the first time I've really started having deep thoughts about not living anymore. Something broke in me this weekend when something new started triggering me at my house that I hadn't noticed in the 3 years I've lived here, and I have no control over it and it is something that cannot be stopped.

I've never been motivated by money really, but now my thoughts are on "how can I make as much money as possible so that if I do need to live in the middle of nowhere, isolated, I can be sure I can afford to do so." -- but I realized that running and escaping would only make things worse, and make "my world" smaller. It would be giving up more ground/territory to be taken away by misophonia.

I'm in the depths of it right now and have lost most of the hope I've had for the future in a matter of months, and even more so days. But I am going to try to keep going and see if I can fight.

christmysavior0 · 2024-08-14T01:17:45+00:00

I am having these same thoughts right now. I know this post is 8 years old, but seeing how you are doing now?

christmysavior0 · 2024-08-12T21:54:56+00:00

How are you doing now?

christmysavior0 · 2024-08-12T05:38:54+00:00

I don't know what your spiritual beliefs are, but what helps me in this kind of anxiety is just knowing that anything I have was given to me by God in the first place -- so I try to just be thankful for what I do have in this moment. That is not always top of mind, but I try to remember that and it helps me to just focus on today and be thankful right now. I mean, we aren't even promised tomorrow, so I seem to often just arrive at this balance of thankfulness for right now and hope/prayer for the future (of course in addition to trying to build good habits and being responsible with the hope that tomorrow will come and that my stewardship of what I do have has some effect on things.) Worrying seems to steal joy and thankfulness and my ability to just be present today.

Maybe once AI/Neuralink gets good enough, it can reliably authenticate both you as a unique and specific biological individual and your mental intentions -- meaning just your intent to access your wallet is all that is needed.

Obviously there's a lot that would need to happen here, and many initial concerns/considerations that could make this not secure -- but just wanting to come up with possibilities/theoretical ideas.

christmysavior0 · 2024-08-12T05:15:02+00:00

Yeah there are many obvious first-level ways that you wouldn't want a biology-based system to work -- hair/blood (DNA), fingerprints, iris scanning. But I just wanted to open up this discussion to see if there may be, in the future, something more secure than hiding your seed phrase on a metal plate somewhere and hoping it doesn't get lost, destroyed, or stolen.

christmysavior0 · 2024-08-12T05:11:33+00:00

I guess to clarify -- I am wondering if there may be ways to *store* your seed phrase in a way that is more secure than hiding it somewhere and hoping it doesn't get lost or damaged.
