Comfortable, noise canceling, good enough sound for most people, works seamlessly with iPhones.

Yeah, 99.98% certainty they're crapPhone users, so why not stay in the ecosystem? No 3rd party headphone is going to work as nicely.

Apple did a good job with them. If they’d add an EQ to tame that bass, I’d buy one right now and forget about my Sonys. Even a bit of love for them here on SBAF.

It looks fat, are you joking my team?

Whoa, tactless! Not fat: pregnant.

Found any you like?

Yes, Trying to find anti-harmon ones. So far like oriolis trailli, QDC Anole VX & 14, 64 audio U12t and U18s.

-15F here in Bozeman

70F at night ATM

It's actually seasonal here in the upper 20's in the Milwaukee, WI area but we've had freezing rain for 9 hrs with 10 more to go. The roads are in very bad condition, driving is hazardous.

You don't argue with The Google.

Not sure I like the new Wikipedia formatting either

I am now just going to AP & UPI and get all the relevant stuff without the crazy bullshit google feeds. refreshing!

Maybe some sweat/oils got on the stem of the tip causing its to slip out. Try dunking the tips in isopropyl alcohol for a few minutes to see if that helps.

Oh man, we're in the middle of a cold snap where we're getting that all week long. Still, it's not bad compared to last year.

@bixby I am seriously contemplating a move to somewhere warm in the next decade. I’m tired of being cold. My buddy and I put in the budget for our startup that we’d open a Hawaii office by 2030.

That's cold like a brass toilet on the dark side of a glacier.

Nooooooo

Oh no.

Got a Blink camera or other camera with night vision? Point that at your space heater and that'll tell you. Also fascinating to watch your iPhone face recognition flashing IR at you.

I wonder about these quartz heaters. A friend in a colder city uses one because she says it is economical. But it puts out so much light: is it really economically putting out the heat?

If you like it for the guitar stuff, you would like most of their stuff. If you liked it for the combination of electronic + shred then their newer stuff has that. Having sad that, playing god is their best from the album IMO

Definitely don't discount their two earlier more metal/prog albums; Aviator on Muse is one of my faves. The Most Hated is generally considered the album/EP where they switched over completely to their current sound/musical direction, with a healthy dose of R&B, hip hop, and trap beats and basslines, and super technical melodic phrasing, but also proof that Tim Henson isn't the only star of the show.

I was intrigued by this conversation and am currently listening to the Remember That You Will Die album.
Wow! I love heavy rhythms, and I love guitars. This is really a great combination of both. Only the voice parts of guests on some tracks are not my cup of tea, I really hate the sound of autotune.
But the instrumental tracks and some of those with vocals are great.
Thanks for the tip! :)

Thursday 715am at Denver airport: -20F.

I don’t miss sub zero temps one bit

Stay warm stay safe!

Those rich mofos of the grocery industries just took a bath with the crypto fall out.

Walmart opioid settlement= 3.1 billion
Walmart 2021 profit= 146.3 billion

Wake up people, the liquid of prehistoric biomatter is too expensive in Europe. I wish these mofos would stop taxing the shit out of people. It was near 2 Euros per liter here. Now coming down in snails pace.

It's still more than double that in WA and NV. Ugh. About $4.40 in Seattle and $4.60 in Reno.

And here I'm am relieved that 91 is back to <$5/gal.

It's like Oprah handed out bowl games.

Wait, he's still alive!

Very much. Alive and awesome. He has a center dedicated to him, recommended to visit.

Arvo Pärt has written great as well as not-so-great stuff, IMHO. My feelings about modern choir music: Lots of it I like only when I sing it myself or when I listen to it in a concert. Listening to recordings is often no fun to me.

Well.. There is room for improvement always. I value my dreams anyway. There are good people out there, we cant zero that out. .. to continue the last thought. It is a question of which energy you feed. If you feed nihilistic / egomaniac narc energy then thats what you get. People with actual goals do not have time for pointless noise and banter.

Before I plant an ignore, I am flabbergasted. Anyone observant today knows there is lots of hostility and hatred everywhere. An idealistic world is one we all would like, but do not think for one minute that anything will change overnight, even here in the west.

The "system" is running hot. It wont change over night.

Seriously. My wife was a "Verified Fan" and after using the link, waiting in a waiting room and then a queue, it wouldn't accept the code TM texted us. We tried for 5.5 hours, and then it finally worked and we got TSwift tix in a corner behind the stage... I hate Ticketmaster.

Ticketbastard!

If all the reports from recently laid off/fired/resigned employees are true, there will be no way for Twitter to maintain operations in the short term. Roughly 88% of the workforce has left, far beyond any amount of trimming the fat to be more efficient. The remaining workers have been left confused and asked to do tasks they've never handled before.

Some employees who resigned are reporting that it took them days to actually resign because their supervisor had already been laid off or quit, and they couldn't figure out who to resign to!

Here we go, from the horse's mouth: https://twitter.com/peterclowes/status/1593458225533313025?s=20&t=ovU-wMez7qS42CoLmW53Tg. No incentives offered for people staying, no vision, nothing offered but pain. This particular engineer believes existing systems can hold though.
