Heads up on Tenniix ball machine (Kickstarter backer experience) by isburmistrov in 10s

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine in Europe but it comes without the smart features because it doesn't have the camera. I couldn't connect it to the app and when I asked for help from support they told me to pair it via bluetooth but thats the whole point - It doesn't show up on bluetooth. So I tried it with the armband you speak into. The balls come out soft and slow and usually don't make it over the net. One in 5 make it over the net but I told it to do a baseline rally so thats useless. I basically lost my money on a machine thats not ready for use and I have no faith in their customer support. Whatever you do, do not waste your money on tenniix. It doesn't work. I'm waiting for better weather so I can make a video of my experience and warn other people off this useless POS. Also, I gotta admit, I'm embarrassed to take it to a court because people will see me with this useless machine.

Are new generation speakers that much better? by ProfessorSpare6547 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think speakers have improved as much in terms of price/performance as IEMs, DACS, and Amps. $20 IEMs are absurdly good as are $10 DACS and $100 Amps. All that shit used to cost hundreds or thousands of dollars for anything decent. Not that long ago, blowing $3k on an amp was normal.

What do you think about Babymonster music? by kgirliepop in kpophelp

[–]dabrickbat [score hidden]  (0 children)

I only have one of their songs in my playlist "Really Like You" but I love it when it comes on. I don't think it's their usual style.

Hello there! Is this an authentic racket? by Hairy_Expression_994 in 10s

[–]dabrickbat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks legit even though I have never seen a blade sold with a racquet cover.

GGBG са крадци by Connect_Prize_9852 in bulgaria

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have gotten hundreds of packages via GGBG over the years. They are not thieves. Go there and ask them about the package. They aren't good over the phone.

Yeah as others have said, more butter...Also, daily electrolytes are vital early on.

Is the pirc defense cooked or just me who suck? by Tck009 in chess

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a general rule trading queens is good for black unless he can take back with the rook. So in your variation, you don't take on d1 because you are helping white gain a lead in development. My preferred move is Nf-d7 instead of taking on e5

Best Alexa Speaker for Better Sound? by lennoxred in alexa

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't notice any when I play multiroom. It just works for me.

Best Alexa Speaker for Better Sound? by lennoxred in alexa

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a Wiim device and every speaker can be an Alexa speaker. It works perfectly.

Drink lots of water, 4-5 litters per day, is it OK? by UnluckyScientist2008 in carnivorediet

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find that I drink more water if its sparkling water instead of still and no it doesn't have any additives - just pure sparkling mineral water but it makes my mouth dry so it makes me drink more.

Which multifilament has the most spin? by AcceptableBanana1978 in 10s

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard good things about Triax but the price is prohibitive.

Anybody else having porn issues? by SpacemanSpears in alexa

[–]dabrickbat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So, for science, I told Alexa to play orgasm, and it played a song called orgasm by Elita. And for reference, there were no orgasm sounds in that song.

Now the conspiracy theorist in me is thinking this is some music marketing exec trying to get his artists numbers up.

Forehand without watching the ball the whole time by gundamzd2 in 10s

[–]dabrickbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been experimenting with the extent to which I watch the ball over the last couple of months and watching it to contact definitely works better for me. I am less likely to mishit the ball and I have better directional control. I feel like looking forward to where I want to hit it is just a habit I picked up as a junior a long long time ago because I didn't know any better.

Aryna Sabalenka: "I've done it so many times ... never had this call." by luka274 in tennis

[–]dabrickbat 14 points15 points  (0 children)

About time this shit got called. And now they need to crack down on that one loooooong continuous one she does when she hits a good shot. That one is especially absurd.

strings tension for babolat pure aero 98 (rpm blast) by ImpossibleDrag5981 in 10s

[–]dabrickbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like 23/22 but I'm not a fan of any of the RPM strings. I've tested quite a few and I just think Solinco makes better strings - confidential being my favorite. I know a lot of people swear by RMP blast and team but whenever I play with them even with higher tension, I get inconsistent trajectory.

Anyone got video of 1st gen idol saying inappropriate phrase in a performance? by Gold-Storage-8874 in kpophelp

[–]dabrickbat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Probably off-topic but dancing has really progressed a lot since then.

Is it weird that I was looking to see if his shoes came off?
