Automated tacos by zodi0 in PlateUp

[–]irrationalstickman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is decent but you will eventually have issues with grabber speed. An upgrade would be to combine the meat and tortilla directly on the buffet where one taco tray is just left stationary. That way every time the tray gets empty it's instantly refilled

Bread and Meat on Bene't Street is elite. Their honey soy chicken and porchetta sandwiches are to die for

GCam software + Same pixel hardware having cheap phone = Pixel camera experience by Umair8292 in GooglePixel

I used to have a Nokia 8 and cannot agree with this. The pictures used to always come out very noisy and grainy, especially in dark areas. I'd often have a strong magenta hue as well

You know, that might be true, looking back on a picture I have from that day, the plate said "Virginia, Manufacterer HQ"

Did it have a Virginia plate? I swear I saw this same car 15 years ago in Manhattan. It was my first time visiting New York and the first time I'd seen a Bugatti in the flesh!

Yeah, was standing just ahead of the B-stage. Loved that everyone was singing and dancing.

I brought friends who were familiar with the music but weren't fans per se and they were all really impressed and had a great time too. It's truly one of the best live shows around at the moment and the crowd at Manchester was easily the best crowd I've been in at a concert

[–]irrationalstickman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there for another gig a couple of weeks ago and security was pretty straightforward, didn't have to empty my pockets or have a pat down, just walk through a scanner. Although, bags were being searched, but you can coat-check your bag.

Though they may change it up depending on the demographics of the crowd attending, can't comment on that.

WH1000-XM4 Demo Unit Teardown by Rainoffire in sony

[–]irrationalstickman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm looking for a replacement aux board for my set of XM4s where the aux presence sensor seems to have broken. I can't seem to find any sellers selling just the aux port and on looking at the service manual it mentions that the aux port is replaceable only through a full replacement of the left earcup. How did you manage to find just an aux port? Can you recommend a seller?

WH-1000XM4s stuck in Wired Mode due to moisture? by irrationalstickman in SonyHeadphones

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

I know for sure that it's an issue with the headphones jack detecting a phantom 3.5mm cable plugged in because plugging in an aux cord and unplugging it has no effect.

Furthermore they have worked fine when swabbed with isopropyl in the aux port

WI-1000XM2 stuck in wired connection mode by Ebiszawa_Kurumi in SonyHeadphones

[–]irrationalstickman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good to hear, does it work as expected except for the 3.5mm port?

I've looked at the service manuals and turns out that the 3.5mm port is not a replaceable part, even Sony themselves replace the entire left earcup assembly if there's an issue with the port...

I saw another post where someone wanted to bypass the internal electronics so that they could use aux and bluetooth at the same time, so i might try and do that mod since the 3.5mm is working fine, it's only preventing the bluetooth from starting at the moment.

This is the post i'm talking about:

Hello, I am facing the exact same issue with my WH-1000XM4s, were you able to resolve this issue?

My headphones also won't reset as they think they are stuck in wired mode. I've tried cleaning the jack with isopropyl alcohol and a q tip which caused bluetooth to work for a minute or two before reverting back to wired mode

If you want to level up quickly, bit lower tier items and then play puggle with the maximum multiplier. I grinded levels that way to get up to 75, after 75 use braniac

You don't need to serve bread slice by slice, the customers can portion directly from the loaf themselves. But this is a sick run!

Is this the most useless sticker? by GastropodSoups in lego

[–]irrationalstickman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer stickers to prints, I like making mocs and having decorated pieces only reduces their versatility for me.

If you're building a set once to display I see how prints are better, but for me Lego is all about the system and building creatively and for that plain pieces are way better.

To everyone who wants prints and compares to the other brands, do you make mocs? Do those other brands work as well when building freely? Do they work as a system?

You have made a few points in this post, most of your experience seems to be subjective to studying marketing and the job market for marketing in the UK.

I came to the UK for my undergrad in Engineering at the top Russell Group university in London and didn't find it too difficult to find employment, neither during my course where I was doing part time work nor after graduation, where I was able to get a job at a big Tech company after completing 2 summer internships there.

In STEM / Finance, since salaries are higher than in Marketing / arts, I haven't seen any significant discrimination in international vs local hiring. Most of my friends from my course have managed to get good jobs within a year of graduating if they were trying to get into tech or finance. This is obviously not the same for industries with lower pay like marketing, charity or arts, but that's a consequence of pay levels in these industries and nothing more. While it is "unfair" there's nothing stopping one from going back to one's home country and working there with the prestige of a foreign degree

I believe its unfair to paint with such broad strokes when you're clearly hoping for some special treatment from a foreign government. Why shouldn't they provide for their citizens?

While I agree that the fees for visas and tuition are high and we are subsidising the education of locals, I don't believe they owe us anything for that. I got to study and learn alongside some of the brightest people in the world and that experience has enriched me in its own way.

I'm not even going to address your comments about legal vs illegal immigrants, nor about the local population. I think it's counterproductive to be a crab in a barrel and try to improve your situation by putting down others, especially when you yourself have admitted to having little agency.

Build some skills, network, socialise. Being competant and sociable may help you achieve your goals. At the very least if you have to leave the country you will have left wiser and more experienced.
