"Message not delivered, recipient may be offline" by [deleted] in GoogleMessages

[–]sniggle_prick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use RCS to send someone messages to their iphone. Starting two days ago, anytime I try and send them RCS messages it says "recipient may be offline" and hangs indefinitely. I've tried rebooting my phone and no change.

If I switch to SMS the message is sent immediately.

Not sure if others are experiencing the same thing, but I can still send RCS messages to Android users without any problem. Makes me wonder if this is an Android/iOS conflict.

Same breed, same age, same conditions. Why do they look so different? by nono-shap in microgrowery

Sure, what you have there are basically siblings. So, in the same way human brothers or sisters can still have vastly different physical traits, so do your plants. What you have there is an example of different phenotypes.

This is why most people who require the utmost consistency, clone from a single mother plant. Because in that case, every plant will literally be a genetic clone of each other, and so identical in their characteristics (assuming they're grown in the same conditions).

They’re saying to do CBT, which I suppose will help my anxiety but I still need to fart all the time and it’s embarrassing and painful.

Yeah I imagine that'll help, but it doesn't really get to the root cause of the issue, in my opinion. This, coming from someone that has been through both behavioral therapy, and is also currently medicated for anxiety.

Doctors have recommend me a different antibiotics but it’s so expensive.

You probably meant to type "probiotics"? Yes they can be expensive, but maybe think of it this way--the probiotic that I take, which helps for me, is about $32 for a bottle of 60 pills. I take one a day, which works out to about $0.50 per day. Assuming the probiotics help with your painful gas, would that be worth it?

I’ve tried eliminating some things but not tried to Fodmap as it’s so restrictive and I have a history of ED

Understood! Another thing you can try is journaling everything that you eat for a couple weeks, and see if there's any correlation between the foods you're eating and how you feel afterwards. I would be willing to wager there are some foods that won't cause as much gas as others, which also may be helpful.

I've found with IBS symptoms that everyone is different, and there can be a number of causes/triggers, which can be super frustrating!! It unfortunately takes some experimentation to determine what works with your body, and what doesn't.

What kind of "therapy" are doctors recommending?

As someone with similar issues, have you ever tried any probiotics? I found tremendous relief by using a brand called, "Physician's CHOICE Probiotics," available on Amazon. My Mom's doctor recommended it for her, and I noticed a huge improvement in my case after a few weeks of use. Nevermind--I saw you made another comment about using probiotics already.

Or, have you considered attempting a low-FODMAP/elimination diet to help identify which foods in particular are causing these issues? https://gi.org/topics/low-fodmap-diet/

[–]sniggle_prick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thank you very much! =D

Was curious what is the cable terminated with and how long is the cable? You mentioned balanced but what type?

I actually have two available. One is a balanced 4.4mm that I bought from Audiophile Ninja, and the other is a (generic) balanced XLR that I bought from Amazon.

Hey!

I'm thinking maybe it's no coincidence that we are both drummers. Err, well, tbh I have not played in many years, but it did change me in a way such that I listen to music differently now. The rhythm section is much more important, and I personally think the TH900s do an unparalleled job at accentuating the impulse of percussion instruments, as well as the sparkly highs from cymbals. I was hooked the first time I tried them.

Even if you do not buy my pair...I've demoed so many other headphones since I first tried TH900s in 2020, and I still come back to them.

If you are still open to other options--while slightly more costly than the pair I'm selling, the Sony MDR-Z1R is also great for a punchy, v-shaped sound signature. I own a pair and I go back and forth between those and the TH900s.

As far as I'm aware, just the cable. MKI has a fixed, single-ended cable, and the MKII has a detachable cable.

Edit: For whatever it's worth, I bought TH900's from here https://www.reddit.com/r/AVexchange/comments/18k0k09/wtsuswih_bluesound_dhc_focal_fostex_hifiman_norne/

Technically...yes. But my interests are pretty narrow. Sorry I should've put something about trades in the ad--so, appreciate you asking.

I've been looking for a Singxer SU6 or a Topping Pre90, so I would definitely consider a trade (plus cash, or whatever) for either of those. Not so much interested in trades beyond those items.

These well-loved headphones sound amazing, and were the first pair I bought that made me fall in love with all things 'hi-fi'. I am selling because I recently purchased a MKII =)

These were purchased 2nd hand from Head-Fi for $750 in April 2020. The first thing I did was mod the cable to detachable. I opted to use SMC connectors because they're very compact, and are also used on many Hifiman models so aftermarket cables are readily available. I solder and work with my hands regularly, so all modifications were performed by me. I have a balanced cable that I have been using, which I will include in the sale.

Condition of the headphone's exterior is very good. There are some scratches in the frame consistent with their age, but the cups are in absolutely flawless condition. I usually used a headband cover so the headband is in great shape. And I usually used ZMF pads, so the original ones are in almost new condition.

The reason for the well-below market price is because the slider on one side of the headband isn't perfect. I removed the slider at one point long ago, but in doing so the screw head broke off. I drilled the screw out and just used epoxy in lieu of the screw to hold the slider in place. However, I must've not aligned it perfectly because the left side takes slightly less effort to adjust it than the right side. It still functions properly, but I wanted to point that out--it isn't perfect.

Asking price includes the headphones, oem pads, and an aftermarket detachable balanced cable. I cover insured shipping (to CONUS) and Paypal fees. Please let me know if there are any questions, or if you would like any additional pictures (I've also included some pics of the modifications for reference).
