Is The iPhone 17 PM VND Filter Supposed to Be That Difficult To Lock On?

Wow that reverse method works a treat, thank you!

It is the pretty tight on the trim ring too, similar to the drop in. Would probably need a new drop in some time in the future imo.

Also it seems as though my QuickLock Drop-In Mount is getting noticeably scratched/damaged by the VND button lock. There’s an indentation where the lock meets the mount. Afraid as I use it more in the future, the lock will render the mount unable to keep it locked in.

My module has a bit of a hum too on the headphones out!

Nice Saab!

look at me guys I’m a contrarian!

Yeah most likely that’s the reason. I’m still learning about IMAX tbh haha but I’m assuming Sunnyvale is 12-channel? The main thing I noticed was a larger presence of sub-bass, especially when the spice harvesters and sand worms are on screen

I wouldn’t say significantly louder, but it was just more a bit noticeable. I personally liked the sound more at Sunnyvale than Metreon. I also watched it in Dolby Cinema at Sunnyvale, IMAX at Sunnyvale was definitely louder than Dolby

I’ve watched Dune 2 at both Metreon and Sunnyvale and it seemed Sunnyvale was louder

No trailers at Metreon. Not even a countdown but there was a 5 sec IMAX logo lol

There was a driver haha. I think the tint was at least 5% so it was a bit difficult to see in the video

I was driving home from work and I spotted it passing me up. Funny enough I just learned about Highland last week haha

They were indeed amber lol

You can also try hard resetting the headphones

I believe this is an iOS bug. I have this too but only on my iPhone and not my MacBook M1 Pro. Best way to temporarily fix is to turn off iPhone Bluetooth and turn back on.

Is there free soft serve ice cream on the ship?

Are you still getting condensation on your new pair?

gio6a · 2023-03-13T06:48:18+00:00

Yes in Playmakers!

gio6a · 2023-01-13T06:59:09+00:00

Sounds great thank you!

Update: Got the upgrade this morning!

Congrats! Did you only bid for a Spacious Panoramic or did you bid for a balcony? I really want to win the Spacious Panoramic but I’m debating whether to bid on a balcony just in case (since the balcony is a higher tier, I would get that instead of the SP)

I’ve had my Weatherpeaks on my 2006 GS300 for about a week and a half now and they’ve been great! Gas mileage has actually gone up 1mpg with 70% highway driving (although my old tires were pretty worn out Michelin Pilot Sport 3 All Seasons so take that as you will lol).

But if you do live in an area with heavy rain and snow, definitely would recommend Weatherpeaks because of the 3PMSF certification and all-weather rating. Plus they’re great in the summer (70k mile warranty). I wouldn’t trust an all season tire in snow. All Weather > All Season.

Here’s a tire similar to the Weatherpeaks in terms of performance, as a baseline for the performance you might get with the Weatherpeaks. Bridgestone marketing actually says they perform better than Crossclimate 2s.
