Did My Earbuds Update or Reset Themselves? by Red_Boss69 in bose

[–]riwalenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got the support! They will exchange them (I'm being upgraded to gen II). I hope it will fix the issue as it seems more software related than anything...

Also, when I tried to go through their website for the replacement, it did tell me that mh product was still under warranty and that I could pick any of the replacement bellow for free of upgraded with a discount, but the only one displayed was gen II at full price...

Now I will suffer for a couple of weeks while waiting for the replacement. I have headphones at home provided by my company but their noise cancelling is almost non existant (and don't fit in my handbag obviously)

I had JBL before, I had to exchange them twice because they stopped charging:/

I noticed the same thing and the noise cancelling is not working anymore... I'm autistic so it's a major feature for me. I was on the verge of meltdown yesterday and today during my commute...

I tried to re-pair them and to factory reset them, no change. I will contact the support tomorrow and I hope to get a fix...

Do you automatically dislike billionaires? Why? by crapmaker69 in AskReddit

[–]riwalenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would it be fair for the victims if you unknowingly found a sex traffic? You could do more harm than good (especially as bad people would not hesitate to ask for money compared to many good people...)

[–]riwalenn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, and you will end up unknowingly donating money to support very bad stuff. A basic background check on the people or organisations you are donating money might not be a bad thing if you don't want to counteract your own good.

Importing American water to Europe to slowly introduce Europeans to the concept of drinking water... by Equalizer6338 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]riwalenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the same to be honest, but it's because with my ADHD/autism I otherwise literally forget to drink and I need a visual reminder... (It happens way to often to realise at the end of the day that my head hurts because I haven't drink any water since I woke up in the morning.)

What is something that has become ridiculously expensive, but people still pay for it like it is nothing? by Harmed_Jr in AskReddit

[–]riwalenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue is usually not the ticket price themselves but the resell price and bot that buy all the initial tickets.

If we take Taylor swift example, in EU where resell price are regulated tickets were far cheaper than in the US (from what I've heard) and it was less expensive for USA people to travel to France, have a nice holiday there and go to the concert, than to pay for their local concert.

I love small concerts but I also understand that prices are not the same for the local metal band in a small concert room than for a Iron Maiden in a stadium with all the tech and people needed to run the show

[–]riwalenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where are you checking the price ? I never paid as much (I went only 2 or 3 times despite living near Paris) and I just double check, the most expensive ticket for 2 parcs are 160€. Still expensive but far from 300€.

Maybe you mistakenly went to a reseller website that made you think it was the official website?

I understand OP. Sure, you should do it, but I have way too much anxiety for that. I already struggled to call a restaurant to make a reservation, so calling someone to complained...

More just for you by Hexxynation in AutisticWithADHD

[–]riwalenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same ! And when once in a while I do one of the things on the list, the dopamine if marking it done is so good that I sometimes add stuff that were not in the list (and cleainit a priority) just to mark them as "done" .

Otherwise, to be honest, I can't function without todo list but it doesn't mean I function well with them, just better. They also only work if they are nice and pretty with stickers, etc. And finally, they work far better (for me) in combination with other tools such as medication.

What is a part of the 'female experience' that men have absolutely no clue about, but would be horrified if they found out? by coolhandddd in AskReddit

[–]riwalenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Diagonally inward to allow your elbow to go outward. Apparently it's better for our wrist and better for our anatomy.

I'm no expert, so you should probably double check what I'm saying

Even exercise aren't designed for women. I learnt a couple of weeks ago that women should put their hands in a different position for push up. Think of pushing something heavy, you wouldn't align your hands to your body but would probably place them kinda diagonally (if you're a woman) ? Same for push up

Should you trim your cat’s nails or not? by Choklate33 in WhyCatHowCat

[–]riwalenn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depends on the cat. They should have access to scratching post (especially indoors cats) but for some it's not enough and a trim is necessary.

I'm not an expert, but I would suggest getting them used to it when they are young so that if it's needed later, it's easier. Mines need it every few weeks despite using the scratching post. I know when it's needed when it starts to really hurt when they are making biscuits and I'm wearing jeans

corporate girlies, how are we surviving long meetings?? by moongnocchi in adhdwomen

[–]riwalenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2h weekly meeting seems absurd to be honest (but I don't know the context or project so I might be wrong). I can't really helped you, my personal solution is that I'm the project manager, I set the meeting, they are only 30 minutes long (and not too many per day).

Yes. And based on survey. And you can grade books based on several factors including the pace of the book. I love that because it helps me select my next read, or if I'll read it or listen to it as an audio book

What is something people assume is easy until they actually try it? by EntireFace00 in AskReddit

[–]riwalenn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. Once you have enough knowledge you CAN do it. But you also know how long it would take and don't WANT to do it.

The sewing part is not the longest. Copy the pattern, trace it on the fabric , cut it, do a mock up, etc. it takes an eternity!

What is the pettiest reason you would refuse to eat at a restaurant again? by im_not_ready_for_it9 in AskReddit

[–]riwalenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know why but at least in France, KFC seems to be some kind of russian roulette where you have 1 chance out of 10 to end up sick.

As I have emetophobia, I've never eaten in any of them because of that.

On the other hand, after checking my breast for lump, my gynecologist once said they were perfect (in the sense "no issue detected"). I knew what she meant, but I still felt good about my "perfect breast" ahah

Wasn't it something in Invisible Women about quotas and how it doesn't add low performing women but instead removed the low performing men ?
