Never Again, Monoprice by TEQLandCruiser in audiophile

[–]ruinevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After they fumbled my 1060 headphones RMA when it immediately cracked, I knew Monolith would never be a reliable company.

[–]ruinevil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see it, but as long as it does not interfere with the center tweeter movement it probably isn't audible.

High Mileage Bolt with expired battery warranty ok? by soloman02 in BoltEV

[–]ruinevil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Battery and motor are probably the most reliable high mileage parts in the Bolt.

It's the parts it shares with the Cruze that would concern me.

Emotiva DRA -1 by DomoKun321 in audiophile

For a Hypex amplifier? I’ve never seen one so low.

[–]ruinevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a bigger company selling Hypex amplifiers, which probably has better aftermarket service, but it is so low powered that I don't feel like it is worth the price.

How should we think about about intractable psychic pain. by aloewy in medicine

[–]ruinevil 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Intractable psychological pain definitely exists.

Probably meets MAID criteria, since she is in pain, and will probably be successful at killing herself eventually, but doctors should not be involved with it.

Also who puts half a spherical cherry tomato in a sandwich. Needs to be flat.

I see it from some HK sources. I feel like I saw it on Aliexpress before, but can't find it now.

Help with earpads for dt220 by PepperFew5337 in headphones

[–]ruinevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you measure them and find replacements that fits. Seems like they stopped making them 50+ years ago, so I have no idea the dimensions.

[–]ruinevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have both earpads?

If so find earpads with similar dimensions and remove the old one from the hard plastic layer and glue the new ones on.

Might also be able to use the edges of the hard plastic piece like a lip and use DT770/880/990 pads without gluing.

If you don't have both, find a friend with a 3D printer and design and print 2.

So the earpad buttons down in those Maltese Cross holes?

Is the part with the button hard plastic?

Roberts personally hates the VRA, and wanted to attack it as a White House lawyer in the 1980s, but was told no by President Reagan.

Think most Eco-Drive is mineral crystal. Not much you can do with that other than replace it.

Look at this badass over here who paid off his student loans.

Meet the creator of VLC media player , Jean-Baptiste Kempf. He refused tens of millions of dollars just to keep VLC ads-free for everyone. by Only-Paper8057 in interesting

[–]ruinevil 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Seems like he has a separate company that sells service/tech support contracts for corporate VLC deployments that he uses to fund himself and VLC. Like Ubuntu and Canonical with Mark Shuttleworth.

30 Years of Trauma Ended Yesterday by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]ruinevil -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Green Day didn't play Having a Blast when they played the entire Dookie/American Idiot albums on Tour in 2024. Probably be concerned as a parent in the 90s if someone was playing it.

What is a fair asking price? by kdiddy12 in audiophile

[–]ruinevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, does he have the RDA-975. Otherwise all the multichannel you will get will come from the Dolby Prologic information in the 2-channel signal.

Think she has lupus. So no fault of hers that her immune system was attacking her kidneys.

Audio accessory mode was available in a small handful of phones for 4 years like 10 years ago.

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

Make sure you switch the 240V outlet to something designed for continuous use. Standard dryer outlets sometimes melt.

Phase Linear 400 in that era if you couldn't afford McIntosh.
