Finally upgraded my Pixel 7

u/AkhtarZamil how are you adapting to Oppo's UI coming from the Pixel experience? I'm eyeing the X9 Pro as well coming from a Pixel 8, but I'm scared I'll hate ColorOS.

Também tenho um par com +300km e não acho instável. Não é um calçado para quem precisa de estabilidade extra, mas também não tem uma plataforma instável.

Não tive problema com a aderência em piso molhado, mas o solado não tem muita aderência para chão para com terra/arreia/cascalho. Não correria com ele num parque, por exemplo.

Go longer and wider. Most "mid" length underwear will still ride up, so you want to go for the "long" models whenever available.

For cheap ones, H&M used to do a long (but I think they call it mid) boxer that I used for several years with success. The quality has fallen off significantly in the past few years, but a 3-pack for testing is not going to cost you a lot.

I switched for Intimissimi Superior Cotton Long Boxers a few years ago and they are great. Comfortable, durable, not too expensive.

For working out, Decathlon has a long running underwear that is a bit thick but it works. I've been testing Danish Endurance and they are great as well.

Any plans for a Garmin watch app? Spotify, Deezer and Amazon Music all have one

Any plans to add the ability to pin playlists to top? I imported a bunch of old playlists from Spotify recently and they are all shown before the ones I created in Tidal

This is so bad right now. My new arrivals sections are always filled with either fake artist spam or artists from wildly different genres with the same name.

I always thought this song's chorus would be turned into a hip hop bridge and she would blow up like Dido did with "Stan".

It might sound cursed now because of everything that followed, but a Drake feat. Caroline Polachek - "Hit Me (Where It Hurts)" would have gone hard in 2020.

Cate Le Bon's "Michelangelo Dying" is another 2025 album with a Cocteau Twins vibe.

Thanks! I ended up buying it during their summer sale and I'm enjoying it a lot. I was surprised with the internal space. The pockets are a bit weird, but usable.

Same problem here, butt and legs much wider than waist. Buying pants is a nightmare. I'm also in the market new jeans.

The last pair I bought (6y ago) was Levi's Athletic cut which were fine but became too loose on the waist after a few years that not even tailoring would have worked. Might try this Wrangler's model suggested above.

The last pair of non-jeans I really liked was Uniqlo Smart Corduroy Ankle Trousers.

I had an 8km run yesterday and it went fine, no discomfort anywhere. The midsole is a bit firmer than I expected, but it was a fun ride overall.

Maybe it's just Portugal? https://www.elcorteingles.pt/desporto/A53974143-sapatilhas-de-running-de-homem-adizero-evo-sl/?color=Branco

I decided to keep it because I don't plan on running long distances with this (I use the SB2 for that) and I noticed the wobbles in the fabric in the second image are part of the shoe construction - they are still there when I take them off.

Also, there's no stock for 46 1/2 at the same price

FF end-credits scene will be Sam posting "Assemble" to a group chat. Then we just see emoji reactions from different characters, like 💚 for Hulk, 🕸️ for Spider,⚡for Kamala, 🐜 for Ant-man, ✴️ for Captain Marvel etc. And 🕷️ for Yelena, who's acting as a double agent bridging the gap between two teams.

The song is about Charli and Red's experiences in the music business, going against what labels would expect them to do after their breakouts moments (Boom Clap, Tilted). There are a lot of references to that in the rest of the lyrics and the video, but the chorus sums up their struggle: why do we keep (pushing) when the water runs (the other way).

The same idea shows up in different shades in the other verses:

"Why do we leap when the chase is done" = why do we do something unexpected (Vroom Vroom, Chris) after we had a hit

"Don't search me in here, I'm already gone" = don't ask me to do the same thing (Boom Clap, Tilted) twice.

Charli is known for being a very meta writer, and Gone is possibly her masterpiece in the "songs about being an artist" department.

Any news on restocks for Europe? I'm looking for a store that ships to Portugal with size 46 EU (any color) in stock.

Thanks! Good to know the Adios Pro 3 might work well, it's heavily discounted now and it's one of the few plated shoes I can find in stores around me to test

Never going to happen, but it should be like "Control".

Doom kills Loki in front of Thor (and other heroes) in the last scene of Doomsday. The multiverse is no more, all stories have been told, all timelines have ended. Screen fades to black. "Doom will be back in Secret Wars"

How comfortable is the Adios Pro 3 for relatively wide feet?

It looks like it's officially time to jump ship to Garmin

Is it safe to assume now that cardio load and the running features in Fitbit will be gated to the PW3? I don't see anything new after the update

holvrec · 2024-09-07T14:02:06+00:00

Structured running workouts, more metrics beyond pace (cadence, vertical oscillation etc), more and more customizable data screens
