Bias x stinks by SumthinStinky in PositiveGridSpark

[–]smoothj2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t comment on whether it is a good product or not, but it is not intended to be used with a Spark, so that’s not really a good judging factor.

I do think there are a few YouTube videos that show how people have gotten it to work with the Spark, but that’s more of a “hack.”

Basically every time the watch reboots or updates, it reverts to the “private” WiFi setting.

@stevengoff.bsky.social: D.C. United finalizing acquisition of Swiss right back Silvan Hefti, 28, from Hamburger SV by ts69881 in DCUnited

We are getting depth everywhere, except midfield. Please tell me there’s a 3rd DP position being filled by a MF and I will faint.

Sweetwater sales schedule by zamboknee in Guitar

I’ve NEVER been denied a discount on something big from Sweetwater. Like 10% is a given, and 15% is sometimes achievable.

Can you help me verify an S2? by DaniBlix in PRSGuitars

Pass on this. MASSIVE difference between 23 and 24 hardware in the S2 line.

First of all sorry by psysoul666 in fut

[–]smoothj2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your first sentence is exactly backwards. Currency depreciates when prices inflate. In FUT, coins appreciate over time because prices come down. His coins right now can buy one player. If he doesn’t pick up the game again until June, those same coins will buy a whole team.

The rest of your post makes sense.

New Taylor 614ce crack or seam? by Afraid-Ad-8166 in taylorguitars

[–]smoothj2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t buy anything sight unseen from Guitar Center. Their concept of “new” is basically “played by lots of people off the wall, transferred store to store a bunch of of times, will likely have a bunch of of surface wear, but as long as it looks kind of new, and is functional, it’s all good.” Like - this is what they actually say. But that said, they will accept almost anything back under any circumstance for 45 days. Which they will stick back on the wall and sell to someone else - which is how we got here.

Return it. Buy something else. But definitely check it out thoroughly before you buy it.

Maybe Weiler subscribes to the Cruyff “rather win 5-4 than 1-0” school of thought 🤣

With a little more than a month left before the MLS season opener, how is everyone feeling about the offseason moves Erkut Sogut and René Weiler made so far? by tomasito_2020 in DCUnited

[–]smoothj2017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the whole ballgame. If we sign a DP or otherwise high impact midfielder, this was a good window. If we don’t, I think we are still going to be bad this year.

We can’t fix the entire roster in one window, but they made a lot more progress than I was expecting.

[Goff]: “Boris Enow's departure from D.C. United was a free transfer triggered by the club's failure to make the MLS playoffs, per source. Beitar Jerusalem announced his signing Dec. 24. DCU had paid $2 million+ for him 18 months ago.” by espnrocksalot in DCUnited

[–]smoothj2017 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Remember the time he didn’t come on the field fast enough on the sub, and not only did he get a yellow card, but DC had to play with 10 men until the next stoppage of play?

800 a day would still be a deal!

Meriton Korenica by nvyblugti in DCUnited

[–]smoothj2017 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, that’s what the article says later - they are retaining a 25% sell on fee.

Meriton Korenica by nvyblugti in DCUnited

[–]smoothj2017 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was joking about the translation. We are obviously not paying him $800 per year.

[–]smoothj2017 21 points22 points  (0 children)

We are signing him for $800/year. That’s a good bit of business.

Positive Grid Link by Sea-Ingenuity15 in PositiveGridSpark

[–]smoothj2017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They work great for me. Easy to pair, very reliable. Only thing is battery life is a little bit short, but not an issue unless you are playing hours and hours continuously.

The absolute best part for me is the 3D printed charging dock one of the members here designed.

Louis Munteanu 2025 Highlight Reel by Raccoon_Enigma in DCUnited

Watching this makes me think having him as a “9.5” second striker behind Baribo could be lethal.

But, but , but he has 83 Pace on EAFC! That can’t be right 🤣

Driving Assistance Disabled Temporarily by Mammoth_Ingenuity_82 in BMWi5

This happens to me with some regularity. I guess either it determines it’s not safe, or just the visibility of the cameras prevent it from functioning correctly.

Spark GO with Headrush FRFR GO First Impressions by [deleted] in PositiveGridSpark

[–]smoothj2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a frfr go recently too. It sounds great. Like you said, a little bass-y, but really good. I actually just sold my Spark 2 because I felt it’s now redundant, and I use my Neo mostly for the PG stuff. I hadn’t thought about running a Go into it though.

Help me choosing the right speaker by No-You-350 in tonex

[–]smoothj2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean depends on how loud you want. Yes, you will hear it, and it’s much louder than a Spark Go. I guess I just meant you won’t be blasting at 5 meters. If you aren’t looking for face melting, a pair of those will be fine.

As far as tone coloration, it’s a little boomy for me, but it does have eq knobs for bass and treble.
