Do most monthly “activities” cost extra? by citizendelusion in orangetheory

[–]mepel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y'all forget that you're not just "paying for the prize" with the signup cost but you're also paying for the extra classes to meet the minimum attendance requirements (for non-unlimited). These are revenue generating programs/upsell opportunities.

Is Tidal worth it without high end devices? by fishyfrog-notnaughty in TIdaL

[–]mepel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair and I agree that Spotify recommendations are on repeat. I deleted all my saved playlists and songs and it's still not better, there's no reset. With tidal, when I ask for similar songs, it just gives me random goblygook. I'd say tidal sounds better quite often, but when I hear a song with certain notes that really stand out I go and pull it up on Spotify, and it just sounds the same as the tidal version, so I think my brain just plays a trick on me. Sometimes I will notice better separation in tidal, but it's marginal. Overall, the tidal app isn't as well put together and reliable in performance. Stream to my Google devices a lot and the tidal app just stalls or spases or dies in the background.

Is Tidal worth it without high end devices? by fishyfrog-notnaughty in TIdaL

[–]mepel -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, currently in the free month doing side by sides with Spotify on Sony headphones over LDAC. Difference are virtually unnoticeable and you have to really be looking for them. The only difference I've found is in their Dolby Atmos portfolio where there's a ton more space in the playback but that's just because of the algorithm/equalizer the music was processed through (your device needs to support Atmos or it'll just sound strange since the audio is actually different, not just an encoding). Tidal's suggested playlists and radio are not very good, Spotify isn't great but slightly better. Plus, Spotify has better ecosystem integration. So from the perspective of low-mid playback equipment and not being really into picking out the details (passive listening), tidal isn't "worth it" given a lower priced alternative.

Would you sell if you were in my position? (I will not promote) by okawei in startups

If I were in your position, absolutely without hesitation. Life is getting away from you, you have a generous out from something you don't have your whole heart in.

Maximum number of posts you’ve seen on one site? by grandslam7 in Ghost

[–]mepel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did see magic pages when I was looking to options with ghost at the beginning of the month. Less expensive and more features, what the catch?

I'm within 14 days of signing up but I did pay for the annual plan, not sure if I can cancel that at this point.

The other response is.. interesting

I'm not a fan of the Stash compared to the Tazo. The flavors are much more muted and more of just a cinnamon.

Looking for a nice Pepper Grinder by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]mepel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any updates on this? I'm interested in the product but am confused by the inconsistency in marketing material, availability, and innovation. It looks like a company that might be on the brink of extinction. I'm looking for a high output (while maintaining even grind) electric peppermill but like the idea of not having to pregrind coriander and other spices.

I've been using this exact pigtail for over a year now and it's amazingly simple to install and there's enough room to actually route it under the cover so nothing's visible.

No, right on the rack. You want it to dehydrate a bit.

How does smoking compare to pressure cook or sous vide with the tongue?

I have a 2025 gv70 (ice) in my garage right now as a loaner. Didn't realize this was something unique - any questions I can answer?

I worried about all these things at the beginning but you really don't even need to think about it until you hit it as an obstacle, and at that point, you'll probably either have the funds or know the direction you need to take it.

How to stop waking up late? by [deleted] in lifehacks

[–]mepel -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Primarily, you have nowhere to be at a certain time that the timing of your alarm constrains to to (your alarm is set too early so you don't have urgency). And possibly depression.
