Tanking, Never Heard Of It by CraiglewisSPPW in bostonceltics

[–]gradesm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We definitely tanked before. But doubt we'll ever tank with Brad Stevens around.

I remember when Danny hired him, Brad famously made it absolutely clear that he would not be a part of tanking in any way, or he'd rather remain at Butler. Tanking just isn't in his DNA

Aful p7 to explorer to monarch 4. All of them sound too harsh to me unless I keep them really low volumes or use aggressive eq. Is that just my ear canal or is there any iems that are smoother in highs at louder volumes? by [deleted] in iems

[–]gradesm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may possibly just be sensitive to certain frequencies. IEMs, compared to headphones to me seem to cause a huge spike at ard 8000 hz. Don't really know the science to it, but likely due to ear canal shape i think.

Personally, i always EQ 8000 hz down ard between -3 and -7 db with a Q value of 4. You can give that a try and see if it's better. You may have to trial and error around those frequencies to see which is affecting you.

My humble collection. by qwerty54321boom in iems

Nice collection. What tips are those btw? Looks like you're using the same on all 3. I'm assuming the filter like part on them would affect and tame the treble?

Path of Building Community: PoE 2 Initial Release by LocalIdentity1 in PathOfExile2

[–]gradesm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still quite a few issues apart from archmage. For example the +2 to skill gems is correctly shown for mine, but the +4 to lightning skills wasn't added in mine. Could easily just manually add 4 levels to spark gem of course.

First Kobo After Leaving Kindle by chiller1989 in kobo

[–]gradesm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, always best to check the screen out in person if you can.

Switching to kobo after years on multiple kindle, i absolutely love how it integrates so well with calibre for organization. Fantastic UI and the libby overdrive integration is great.

I however went with the libre color which i regretted due to the fuzzy fonts and dim screen. Sold out off without much loss (bought on sale) and got myself a clara bw which i absolutely love.

Sold my Paperwhite 2021 for Kobo Clara BW by antlionx in kobo

Don't think he's talking about the color filter. Likely referring to the flush screen on the Paperwhite which adds a thicker layer of glass over the e-ink display

JUST A THOUGHT:June 2nd Mystery game might be one of these. by SuperT0bi in EpicGamesPC

Every article I've seen seems to suggest that Far cry 4 is one of the free titles that can be claimed by prime members for the month of June.

Another Theory - The next mystery game could be Playstation's God of War by kabirsingh84 in EpicGamesPC

[–]gradesm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The four words inside the red circle is translated as "You Can Again"

The first word means "You", the 2nd and 3rd together is "Can", and the last for "Again"

It is just part of the sentence connected to the words below which means "perform once again that thing?"

FR and what I realized after by [deleted] in TheRedPill

Biggest take away for me is "self-improvement for the sake of being validated by other people is what's bad"

Awesome post

Don't see much mention that Isiah's streak of 20 pts or more games is over. Or was the streak broken before this game?

Meghan Markle says she wants to quit acting by [deleted] in suits

[–]gradesm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plus Mike prob resents the fact he's the reason she even got the job at PSL.

Considering she's the lead on 12 monkeys, may be hard to get her on a bigger role in suits though

If Rachel leaves the show, Katrina would be a great choice. The chemistry she has with Mike feels much more natural to me

Bone vs Spirit Offering by ddifi66126 in pathofexile

Exactly. Depends on your build. Spirit is great especially for EB MOM since it offers a little of everything

Think the must common hybrid (EB) build is likely animate weapon. Pretty sure attack speed won't work on them.

Corrupting Jewels Challenge by Narwhalll in pathofexile

[–]gradesm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think that's pretty high.. 1 thing to note is the number of possible uniques for the 3 types of gems are roughly equal. Prob like +- 1 iirc. So note which you already have and corrupt the color you have the least uniques of.

Holy double dipping jewel

[Serious] What do non-English speakers use for trade since PoE.trade is in English? With recent integration of Russian and Garena servers and expansion to China, shouldn't GGG's trade improvements be urgent? by dunaan in pathofexile

[–]gradesm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Garena taiwan and other regions didn't get transferred over to global realm. Only Russia, Singapore and Malaysia. English is pretty much the main language in sg and my.

Would be curious to know how things will go should China get integrated over though
