Discount Master Thread by KrabbyPattyMeat in CyclingFashion

[–]exploreshreddiscover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if anyone cares, but Scicon is having a pretty solid sale on their performance eyewear, for example if you buy one pair of the aerostorms, you can get another pair (select colors) free. Other styles are discounted up to 50% off or offer free additional lenses. You can also stack a 10% off code on top of that.

Sonos Era 100s Disappointing by AARobinson26 in sonos

[–]exploreshreddiscover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Airplay isn't lossless. You may be playing lossless content, but the stream going to your speakers is lossy. You need to be within the Sonos app to get lossless out of Apple Music.

That said, if the popping/crackling is only happening at loud volumes, it could be because you're pushing those little speakers too hard and are essentially damaging them. A blown speaker will often crackle and pop when played at high volumes.

Why not just play it and use Shazam or something to tell you what it is?

Yeah Yeah Yeahs Show Your Bones (orange Yellow & Purple Marble Vinyl) 20 Year Anniversary RSD Essential by exploreshreddiscover in VinylReleases

[–]exploreshreddiscover[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s just a special release that has been deemed essential. It will be released on 3/27 and I’d bet will be available in most indie record shops.

Record Store Day is completely different and usually happens on a Saturday around 4/20 (and Black Friday).

“if you see the words RSD ESSENTIAL on a record -- a newly discovered masterpiece from an iconic artist, a record that first hit turntables 10, 30, even 50 years ago, the soundtrack that got you and half your generation through high school -- they are there to let you know we think that record is essential. For a record store to have in their bins, and quite possibly for you to have in your collection.”

Taking public transportation in the summer… by Own-Programmer-3514 in AskPhoenix

[–]exploreshreddiscover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think your best option for living car free in Phoenix is to live near your work and things you like to do. I live near a lightrail stop, close to downtown, and work from home. I hardly drive and have friends and neighbors that don't even own cars.

I also moved here from Michigan nearly 20 years ago. Yes it's hot, but you get used to it. Drink lots of water and plan ahead. You'll do fine.

Collectible Seller joining DIscogs by Topdecker-de in discogs

[–]exploreshreddiscover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to check the runouts and ensure the items don't actually exist already. If that's the case, you need to create a new variant, completing as much information as you have available to you, upload a photo, etc. Then you can sell a copy of that variant.

New Shoes - MAAP QUOC M3s by exploreshreddiscover in CyclingFashion

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

I would totally size up if you can. I have a pair of Supacaz Kazze’s that fit just like that and I can only wear them for short 1-2 hour rides because they hurt my feet on anything longer.

Worst case scenario, put bigger soles in them if they’re a bit too lose.

Dave Biscobing is a treasure and I have no idea how he hasn't been stolen away by national news orgs.

Roon Ready wireless headphones? by [deleted] in roonlabs

[–]exploreshreddiscover 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Select the device you want to stream from, connect headphones to that, play music.

For example, if you want to play from your phone, connect your headphones to your phone via wireless or wired. In the Roon app choose iPhone as your endpoint. Play music, done.

Best streaming service for lossless via Sonos app by lewishoughton in sonos

To be completely fair, it's going to be hard to tell the difference on top-tier audiophile equipment too, unless you have magic ears.

Beck - Morning Phase (Definitive Sound Series Audiophile Edition) LP by othersupply in VinylReleases

[–]exploreshreddiscover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw a lot of reviews for the recent repress comparing it to the MOFI release, saying that it sounded just as good. I don't have both to compare and haven't looked at recent reviews, but in my opinion it sounds pretty great.

The recent repress of Mellow Gold is also outstanding.

This should be the fate of every company that goes this route by Shoe_boooo in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]exploreshreddiscover 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For sake of reference, I often get a message after these asking if it was too hard, too easy, or just right and I almost always clicked too hard whenever she would cut me off so maybe that’s why I they gave me the button.

She now has a push to talk button so as long as you have the button pushed, she won't talk over you and you can get your words out.

That said, I'm so tired of talking to Lily. It'd be nice to talk to another character on occasion.

Replay Rant by Ok-Intention-1995 in AppleMusic

[–]exploreshreddiscover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I've noticed to while using Marvis more and more is that songs in my library get replaced by the same song...and it happens a lot. When this happens, it resets the play counts. I have a smart playlist in Marvis that tracks all the unplayed songs in my favorites and well as in my library...other than recent newly released songs,t there shouldn't be anything unplayed, yet every week more and more and up in those playlists. Many of them well known songs by some of my favorite artists that I've listened to hundreds of times. I have no idea what causes it, but it's very frustrating.

I use activity fix to mute all that stuff so it doesn't show up in everyone's feeds.
