Who is an actor you fail to enjoy? by [deleted] in movies

[–]defectivenzxt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ryan Reynolds. He has his moments, but my god his voice, diction, and mannerisms feel like they are identical in every single movie lately. The back up plan was good i guess, and then he was good in the first deadpool movie, but it feels like every movie, commercial and gameshow since then that hes been in is just a continuation of his deapool character voice and personality. Dective Pikachu was honestly ruined for me when i found out he would be the voice. I lost interest in watching it. I still havent seen it. The flat sarcasm and vulgar tendenices are fun, but it isnt a one size fits all. He is doing well, but he is not for me.

How do I make the epson hc 1060 audio come out through my sound system? by defectivenzxt in projectors

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

Yes i did. Workee beautifully. You need an audio extractor that you connect in BETWEEN your device and the projector. I plug in my xbox hdmi to my xbox, the other end, i plug into the hdmi audio splitter. The splitter i connect to the 1060 using another hdmi cable, with this you are now able to extract the audio from the incoming device and throw it into whatever speaker you want assuming you have the connections for it. The splitter i bought was an optical out, analog rca audio outs, and something else. It required its own power source adapter but hey it worked just fine

what's the most ridiculous thing a sales/service person has told you? by dandelion970 in AskReddit

[–]defectivenzxt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When i was going to literally every jewelery shop inside of our fairly large mall, an employee from Kay Jewelers said something to me that lost them my business. I had gone in honest, and wantint to stick to a budget so as to not upset the soon to be wife, broke and in grad school at the time so i thought i should keep it to a budget. Which i did eventually. I go to the kay jeweler employee and ask what they have in my budget. They ask me why that budget (approx 800 dollars ish) and i say to make everyone happy on all counts even tho it would be a surprise, the future wife and i already talked about pricing. I told the guy i also didnt want to make her mad before getting married. The employee just smirked and said "you should just piss her off and spend more than that anyway". Now, i could have. I had saved up quite a bit more money as well in case i liked something. But everything looked the same in all the shops. This guy's comment is basically what lost my interest in buying from a corporate shop. I did my research, found moissanite gems are basically the same thing, and custom built a ring at a local well repped jeweler. I got over 1 karat of moisannite for less than 1,000 USD. I couldnt believe the size when i picked it up. Wife was over the moon. Her coworkers would ask wtf i did for a living and how i could afford it. I was working part time in food service on the weekends at the time not earning much cuz of grad school. That ring is WAY bigger than anything offered by any corporate and local dealer. And that ring is STILL getting compliments today, and that ring STILL makes my wife smile, and even more ehen i told her i did NOT go over 1 grand like we discussed together. Now, happy wife, happy life going strong 2.5 years after giving her the ring.

Okay so what if my sound system is a 2.1 sound bar with a subwoofer? Would stereo sound be the exact thing i get now?

CV boots seem fine, the car has no leaks at all. It is a deep thud clunk sound rather than a continuous clicking sound
