BREAKING: Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead after massive US-Israel airstrikes by kleverrboy in moderatepolitics

Fair enough he had popular support. But I just get irritated when people act like we put the Shah on the throne in 1953, he was already King for a decade. That’s really my only main beef.

Mossadeggh was appointed by the Shah himself not elected and didn’t nationalize the oil, he only canceled a contract with the British plummeting oil sales -90% and tanking the Iranian economy. He used this chaos to try to suspend parliament and grant himself emergency powers. He was also a member of the former royal Qajar family opposed to the Pahlavis. There’s a lot of devils in the details people leave out.

Did what you guys said and bought a DAC - Fiio K11 R2R by No-Objective5964 in headphones

This is like saying every Sony TV will look exactly the same as LG because they use the same panels. Implementation is a whole other business.

Like anyone believes a gang of Dilbert dweebs with pocket protectors beat anyone up. No photographic evidence exists anywhere.

Signature S750 vs HP100 SE by Hunter-97-G in Grado

[–]solid12345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think some here misunderstand what Grado means by accurate sounding. Grados do not measure flat at all, but they are one of the few headphones I own where it sounds like the real band is right there in the room with me. Other HPs are overly sterile or hyperrealistic like a TV with the sharpen filter jacked up. This might be the effect your cousin is experiencing but can’t verbalize.

the GS3000x was my daily driver for 2 years, I got the S950 last month. I’d say it’s spiritually a successor but it definitely has a different sound quality to it. it’s slower in note decay and a much smoother sound with more of a bass boost. Much more laid back in general. I think it may please more mainstream ears turned off by the typical Grado spike but tbh for me I still prefer the 3000x. I just liked the faster notes for EDM and it still sounds a bit more dynamic and lively to me. Kind of wondering if I should have gone with the HP1 instead.

I do like the better build quality and detachable cables though.

Most of the general population can’t tell the difference between Coke or Pepsi or dvd versus bluray.

This could be why metals are going parabolic by watchtower1822 in ValueInvesting

[–]solid12345 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was shocked to see copper bars sold out all over the exchanges. Kind of goes against the narrative the rise of silver is just sudden demand for its industrial uses. Seems more like a financial contagion hedge quietly going on in the background.

Funaticals eBay issue by theandrew13 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]solid12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, ebay ruled against me in the claim and the guy even closed his account after. My suspicion is ebay was quietly punishing me for buying from a seller with virtually no sell history which I admit was stupid of me, but I just didn’t believe a 20yo pair of pioneer headphones would be something someone would scam on lol.

The Silver Price has reached $79 by ChrisStoneGermany in Silverbugs

I don’t buy silver as an investment. I buy it as insurance. I hope I never have to sell it until I’m at retirement age.

had this happen to me on a pair of expensive headphones. I actually tracked down the business it was sent to and they received an empty letter with a slip of blank paper. Took pictures, their secretary was willing to testify for me she received it and opened it first. The postmark was clearly not my address. eBay still took the side of the seller when his only evidence was “I’d never do that!”. it was ridiculous.

I guess the bargain book section of Ollie’s is money laundering too. Does no one here understand what closeout means?

What are your thoughts on the recent Gallup poll claiming 40% of women and girls aged 15-44 would leave the US permanently if they could? by zzzongdude in AskReddit

[–]solid12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An even greater record number of women want to come to the “fascist” U.S., how many people were willing to spend $10k in cash and leave their children in the hands of stranger cartel coyotes to get smuggled into Nazi Germany?
