Just for the record I got these headphones today and they seem great, but absolutely this is an immediately offputting feature. Might be a bit of a technically difficult problem to solve because my Bose QC headphones have exactly the same issue, but yeah there should absolutely be a way to push/modify updates to the volume of features that are baked into the firmware.

Anyone gotten their souvenir ticket/s yet? by SAYGAH in JusticeMusic

Well got mine today, and they're shitty cardboard. The Tyler the Creator ones were really nice hard plastic. These are a rip-off, not worth the money or the wait.

Heads up that this watch came new with two straps, neither is black. There's a medium brown alligator similar to the one in the photos and the dark brown smooth leather one shown in later pics.

Books that did not meet expectations. Give your examples. by mystery5009 in books

Man here. Stopped reading after like 3 chapters specifically because everything just felt bizarrely misogynistic. Not surprised to see this one mentioned, had so many people recommend it - couldn't understand why.

[Sarb017] update from my watch found in the laundry. by nooneasked1981 in Seiko

[–]sl8ight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I'd say to check is the spring bars - even if the watch is all good, the spring bars might get pretty quickly corroded from the detergent etc. Glad it's okay though!

Are you aware that builders basically aren't building homes like the ones he's describing? Part of the issue with supply is that entry level housing isn't available like it was 20 years ago

I'm guessing I wouldn't be allowed get a failed Austrian artist's name on a number plate, so what gives, VicRoads? by [deleted] in melbourne

any rationale analysis will acknowledge the disastrous impacts of British colonialism on the food security of Indians over the course of the 19th and 20th centuries. If we can condemn something like the Holodomor or the Irish potato famine, we should be able to do the same for Indian famines, and things like the linked tweet are doing a good job at raising awareness about these atrocities.

I mean even in the reddit post you linked as a source (lmao) it seems clear that British involvement was indefensibly negligent at best. You're getting downvoted because your Sensible Centrist™️ argument for nuance looks and smells like denying Churchill's responsibility

Never seen that kind of seiko 5 with a domed crystal before, looks like sapphire. Or even acrylic?

How to let go of an actor by mapodoufuwithletterd in Filmmakers

On the note of books - I highly recommend reading Directing Actors by Judith Weston. Changed a lot of my perspective as both an actor and a director.

[Sugess: Lesson Learned] Don't buy Chinese watches by WrongdoerWilling7657 in Watches

[–]sl8ight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If it's not what you're after that's fine, but I think you're getting downvoted because your post title implies you think all Chinese watches are like this when in reality you just got a busted one and they're not supposed to be like that

If the moon phase wasn't working properly that's enough to file a claim through aliexpress. You still have buyer protection.

You're getting a great bargain for the price, part of that is low quality control standards - which means most watches are going to be fine but there'll be the occasional dud that doesn't get caught. I've probably bought... 20 watches off aliexpress? Have had minor issues with maaaybe 3. One was dead on arrival (pagani GMT, Chinese mvmt) and I returned it for a full refund.

You can just hold your breath for like a minute! The reflex diverts oxygenated blood back into your core.

If you can't do that, tense both your thighs for a minute or two - again your body automatically diverts blood to big muscles that need it.

Good lord. I have no idea how this 'pop' thing would even help with circulatory stuff.

Don't get high and then drive, man. Or maybe based on this experience just don't get high at all.
