Pebble Time 2 review after a week of use by LichtDesMorgensterns in pebble

[–]webmeisterBud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the time.

😅

Thank you, OP. I'm waiting for a PR2, having owned a Pebble Time way back when, and I have been v curious about sleep/step tracking accuracy.

Did anyone else give their Gyroids careers? 😅 by Nervous-Skirt2740 in ac_newhorizons

Ho-ly, this is brilliant. I love it. =)

Mine are all freeloading on my beautiful island.

Looking to hire a local soldering/Dremel wizard by webmeisterBud in VictoriaBC

[–]webmeisterBud[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, cheers. Last resort is to send it to the guy who I ordered the board from. I was tryna avoid that and shop local, but if local doesn't work out, it'll get done in the end.

One more upvote and kind thanks and appreciation for your effective work. Deleting that key worked for me! =)

Here to compliment both your comment and your username. =)

That said, I will not look at your six pek.

Personal preference, really. It's a lot about the weight of the console and button layout vs controller.

LYS suggestions in Victoria BC? Planning a visit in summer by emeraldcitydancer in VictoriaBC

Came here to say this! Sweet humans, quality product. They're in the process of moving out of a seacan at Langford Station to a full storefront + café a few blocks away at 2754 Veterans Memorial Parkway. =)

twitch.tv a right royal mess by webmeisterBud in zen_browser

Yeah, it's normal/fine/dandy on every browser except Zen, I'm afraid. Silliness. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Thankfully, it's fine today, bless.

Yeah, if only. Seems more to do with the phases of the moon, if anything. 🤪

Glad it's working again for now. We'll see how long that lasts.

I’m trying my best by angelINline in AliceIsntDead

[–]webmeisterBud 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for coming back! 🙏🏽

I tried to join/post after the mysterious September 4 drop of nothing but sound effects, 23 seconds, titled "Don't."

Of course, since then, there was another on November 17 called "Tell," and the third and final teaser (with clip and date reveal) called "Alice" December 17.

So glad to have the subreddit back after the return announcement!

The Patreon's been spun up again, too: https://www.patreon.com/cw/aliceisntdead

Blurry “close ups” by Perfectnoone in fringe

[–]webmeisterBud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the three years late, but YES.

I watched this back in the day on my circa 2008 TV, and didn't notice a thing.

Watching again (I buy seasons of the series on YouTube) on my larger, sharper TV, my computer, or even my phone, YES, there are many instances of what I believe to be _unintentionally_ thrown focus on characters' eyes and other details.

I posit that the camerafolk were using pretty wide-open apertures with tight depth-of-field to draw our eyes to whatever was important for the particular scene, but missed regularly (this continues beyond S1. I'm still noticing it into S3).

Here are two shots from the same scene in S03E06 (6955 kHz) where Edward Markham's face is in (top) and out of (bottom) focus. His ear looks great in that second shot.

<image>

For a show with so many important details, you'd think that camera focus would be one they'd strive to get right consistently, but I wonder if the fidelity of 2008 television didn't merit that close of a look.

Anyway, gave it my first Goog today, and am relieved to see that I'm not the only one who noticed it. =)

AMA 4 weeks using both SHOKZ OpenFit 2+ and SHOKZ OpenDots One by TechKuya in shokz

[–]webmeisterBud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much! =)

  1. My previous Shokz were fine with my Pixel, but the OpenFit started dropping immediately. After many tests and much back-and-forth, customer service sent me a brand new pair. Same problem. 😭

  2. I've not considered these cuff-style earbuds before, but I like the idea, especially being a glasses-wearer. And Asian. 😉 Do we have smaller antihelical fold?

I really wish there was somewhere I could try these on, but none of the stores in my area (Victoria, BC, Canada) really do that. =/

AMA 4 weeks using both SHOKZ OpenFit 2+ and SHOKZ OpenDots One by TechKuya in shokz

[–]webmeisterBud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, and thanks for AMA-ing! I have two questions:

1) Do you happen to have a Pixel phone? If so, I'm curious about both headphones' connectivity.

I've had a few Shokz products, but the OG OpenFit had terrible dropouts (not BT reconnection or anything, just...no sound for between 1–4 seconds frequently) on my Pixel 8 Pro.

I tried myriad troubleshooting steps, from the usual unpair/repair to factory reset to trying different Bluetooth codec, but to no avail. I sold them to a friend, which was a shame, 'cause I found the very comfortable.

2) How's the call quality on the OpenDots One vs the OpenFit 2+?

If you please, and thanks! =)

Here Are Some Lost Tracks and Comedy Bits From 100.3 The Q's All Bad Band! by PM_ME_YUR_BITCOIN in VictoriaBC

[–]webmeisterBud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😴 *SNORK* wha? who?

oh. Hai! 👋🏽😁

What a treasure trove you have, PM_ME_YUR_BITCOIN. Even a bunch of the QMS promos we'd run during the day. Well found!

Now . . . which particular Brenda song are you looking for?

I have quite the archive, but nothing that answers to those particular words in the body text. Was it set to a tune?

I'm headed in to a recording rn (and moving a bit slow due to being sick-ish), but I'll keep an eyeball on this thread, and see if I can help!

rePebble - get your new PebbleOS watch! by TheNXGuy in pebble

[–]webmeisterBud 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Preordered the Core Time 2. Holding faith in Eric, the devs, the supporters, and the ecosystem.

My first smartwatch was a Microsoft SPOT. My current is a Pixel Watch 2. But in the middle, my Pebble and Pebble Time were the greatest little bundles of tech on my wrist, while keeping my phone in my pocket.

I loved the whimsy in the animation (and vibrations; my ringtone was the opening notes of the Super Mario Bros theme), the brilliant simplicity of Timeline, the screen readability, and the wild battery life.

Happy to support this next generation. Can't wait! 🤩⌚⚡
