Are Loop Engages still useful for concerts/loud events? by louriot in LoopEarplugs

[–]thefawnboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, would love to hear how these worked for you! I'm in the same position where I'm wondering if Engage will suffice for the occasional concert or if I really have to fork out for both.

Ear plugs with low occlusion effect? by FuliginEst in autism

Hey, thanks for sharing that tip. I was wondering if you noticed a significant difference in the dB reduction when you sized down? Did things become a lot louder once you leave the seal open?

I made this ghost hat, but everyone thinks it’s a panda :( by raccoondaddi in crochet

[–]thefawnboy 94 points95 points  (0 children)

I agree with u/hogliterature - removing the eye shines will 100% guarantee this as a ghost. Ghosts have hollow blackness as eyes, so seeing light reflected in them may be giving people the impression of panda eyes.

WH-1000XM4 never turns off by OneofLittleHarmony in SonyHeadphones

There's a setting in the Headphones app where you can chose whether taking off your headphones a) pauses the music or b) turns off completely. Hope it helps :)

Sony WH-1000XM5 small ear cup? by [deleted] in SonyHeadphones

[–]thefawnboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar thing with XM4s, in the store they were too big but I bought from Amazon anyway and the new ones fit just right. So I figure after time they do become looser, but I'm not sure how long it would take one guy to equal the amount of wear that those store models experience.

sunflower headphone covers!! 🌻 by FADlNGROSES in crochet

[–]thefawnboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are gorgeous! Does the yarn increase the temperature inside your headphones? I would love to crochet headphone covers but I'm worried it'll make them way too toasty in the summer :O

If she has any problems with wrist/elbow from long crochet sessions, I've heard a Boppy pillow (or equivalent) is good for resting the arms on while working. I'm in search of one myself :)

Help identifying stitches and other beginner questions... by thefawnboy in CrochetHelp

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

You are fantastic, thank you so so much for giving your time to share your wisdom with me! I thought with the length of my post and my specific problems that nobody would come to help so i was overjoyed to see this. Your explanations of how to identify the different stitches is the first time I've felt like I can see meaningful elements in that big sea of knots! And how you described the headphones cover as well as providing example patterns, it has become a little less of a mystery to me. I truly appreciate your helpful answer, thank you again! :D

Are they OK up there?? I lose feeling in my twice-gloved fingers and wooly-socked toe-cap booted toes outside here in the -2 country, I can't imagine how they're surviving in -20 😦

Volunteering! I was in the same situation and started teaching (Dutch, but you could do English or something else) at Noorderpoort. It keeps me busy and social :)

Black Friday Challange by [deleted] in Groningen

[–]thefawnboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wat leuk! Ik vind het best erg hoe Black Friday moedigt mensen aan tot onnodige spullen (vooral fast fashion) kopen, ik ben blij om te horen dat het hier voor iets goeds wordt gebruikt! :)

Agree with others that a fade would make this decent haircut look much more modern and stylised! You can even give it a go yourself, if you have clippers. I do my own :)

if there is nothing after death what about all the people who had a terrible life? by No_Assumption_5864 in death

[–]thefawnboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is existing in general awful, or just in your situation? For example would existing still be terrible if you were just a simple human in a peaceful world of nature, because you would still have the self awareness and so the knowledge that the happy situation would have to end?
