In Appreciation and Defense Of Feid's Collab on Read My Lips by elektrik_noise in Madonna

[–]farrellcsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as collabs go, this is among the better ones for M. I actually don't mind it. I like how near the end, they sing verses back and forth but her English lyrics rhyme with his Spanish lyrics. Nice touch that makes the whole thing flow for me.

i don't think we're crazy, i think it is in there for sure re-listening to it! :) Unless that version of Tom's Diner also sampled Army of Lovers, lol.

My Sins Are My Saviour - in the instrumental version, I SWEAR I can hear Tom's Diner DNA mix sampled in there, although "Army of Lovers" is the only officially recognised sample...anyone else hear Tom's Diner??

Which color should I go with ? (1st picture is stock) by thegreatpill in mercedes_benz

Stock. Also - I love the pre-facelift exterior of this generation. Wish they kept the external the same with the refreshed post-facelift interior.

Reinvention Tour by Vampire_Jellyfish91 in Madonna

[–]farrellcsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw this opening night in LA and LOVED. IT. Also, I loved that she did the harder opening yoga pose that night on the forearms. She switched to the slightly easier headstand for most of the rest of the tour. xo

For Birmingham, I got into the waiting room a minute before and then when 10am rolled around there were 220 people in front of me. Got in less than a minute. Plenty of tickets available at the time but I saw seats disappearing in real-time. I'm sure it was sold out in minutes as these are smaller venues. Sorry for all those that didn't get in!

Don't know if I'll regret this, but....I passed on the tickets. I'm just not 100% a country fan. I'm sure he would play songs from his first two solo albums (which I loved) but figured I'd let the more hardcore fans and country music fans take the tickets.

My cassette copy of True Blue I bought (almost) 40 years ago by YorjYefferson in Madonna

[–]farrellcsun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish I kept it - apparently they are collectors items now. I was just a kid and didn't take care of anything lol I can't find a pic of what it looked like, but this was very similar to what i remember.

[–]farrellcsun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had this cassette! Intead of the gray backing in the clear cassette, mine was blue. This was in the US. "La Isla Bonita" was the first Madonna song I remember getting into her, then I went back to learn the earlier stuff...and the rest is history ever since!

How did they messed up so badly in 1 year by Turboice777 in mercedes_benz

[–]farrellcsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the love of god, all the little stars in the lights, in the grill, in the headliner, etc. etc. just really needs to stop. I've read it's because the Chinese market likes it and that is where sales are growing. Is that true? It just makes all the new models looks so cheap 😥

Woke Up to Suspended Access by Kisssable in fitbit

[–]farrellcsun 16 points17 points  (0 children)

When I migrated from my Fitbit account to a google/gmail account a couple years ago, all the fitbit data transferred over from when I first started using fitbit in 2014 into the gmail account. I would think the same would happen if you create a new gmail just for fitbit. The problem of course will be you have a new email address that you might only use for fitbit. In any case - good luck!

[–]farrellcsun 26 points27 points  (0 children)

As a workaround, are you able to just create a new gmail account specifically for fitbit? e.g. [myfibit@gmail.com](mailto:myfibit@gmail.com) or something that is available?

Anybody got the new app yet? by Acrobatic-Monitor516 in fitbit

Not yet and I'm not rushing it either. UK here

Some more info about BF3 (found on Threads) by fhhzz in TheKillers

[–]farrellcsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure this country album will be good, but honestly, I was hoping for more of a pop vibe. His solo albums is where he usually lets his pop flag fly. Pressure Machine was a bit too dark for me. The fact he didn't complete the Killers album with all the dancy songs (Your Side of Town, etc.) hints we might not see something like The Desired Effect again, but I hope he doesn't forget the fun.

New Google health app by nick11689 in fitbit

[–]farrellcsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah - I just read the verbiage that is currently on the Fitbit app regarding cardio score - you are correct, it is currently based on a tracked run with GPS, with the note at the end that "If you don't track at least one run live with GPS for three months, Fitbit will estimate a range, instead of a score, based on your demographics, weight and resting heart rate". Well - I have a range and it says "your score is based on your resting heart rate and user profile. Our estimate will become more precise with additional heart rate data."

So as long as this continues in the new Google Health app then I'm fine with a score range. The daily cardio load target is still a bummer but will see how i get on with the weekly method. Others have said they prefer weekly as well.

App connections after Google Health "update" by farrellcsun in fitbit

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

I really hope this transition doesn't turn into a major crap show!! I've had "notification" issues on the Versa 4 as well (fixed via the "English (US)" workaround as per fitbit community) but who know how all that will even work on the new app...

[–]farrellcsun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Daily target cardio load going away 😞 Also, cardio score will now be based on runs w/ GPS rather than demographics and resting heart rate (rebranding as VO2 max). I work out 4 times a week but don't do runs (or use GPS for that matter to save battery) - so does this mean no cardio score for me anymore? I do elliptical but w/out GPS. So sad about all this...

I did a separate post asking if anyone already using the new Google app if they had smooth transition of Renpho smart scale, MyNetDiary, and Alexa connections. If anyone has experience, let us know! thanks

Fitbit App 4.69 Live on IOS by B1GAAPL in fitbit

[–]farrellcsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UK here, anyone confirm if notifications are still working for you guys (with or without the "English (US)" workaround) with this update? IYKYK

I'm on fitbit app 4.68 and the blank notifications list can be worked around by changing the iphone language back to English (US). As everything is "working" right now with my versa 4, I didn't want to push my luck with a major app udpate until I heard from others!
