now he's saying the reason he lost is because his costume was too heavy so it tired his legs out - Deontay "No Excuse" Wilder

Really hope this doesn't turn into a trilogy, even though there's a clause that nearly guarantees it. I want to see Wilder eat more humble pie, and take his next L to build up a more honorable, lesser known fighter.

Wow.. the weight of his blinged out nazgul costume was too much. That’s something.

@purr1n was about to tag you actually, since I saw you posted that HD580 will sound differently depends on how worn the pad is. Mine is 90% gone and I actually like it that way. Super close to the ear = a much more exciting and "dynamic" sound for me. Put on new pads and the energy's gone but I had to do it, old worn pads were pretty gross.

I was going to try messing around with my 2002 HD580 but every time I put them on I find myself thinking it's not worth messing with -no mod will magically bring more bass extension and reduce distortion - that's just how the driver is. The rest doesn't need 'fixing'. Synergy is more important.

@E_Schaaf I do feel that Bill's mod makes it sounds less grainy (foam removal maybe?) but the HD600/HD650 grill also makes 580 become more gentle than I'd like.
But I do agree is synergy is more important, though I have a hard time imagining 580 would sound outright bad on any system.

gotta get on that SDR train and maybe try throwing some EQ in as well

Sell it to me!

well this was just a farewell, I sold it. now, what's next...?

If you have to ask "is it safe", then it's not safe. (imo)

@Elnrik good rule of thumb. I never heard about it before that's why though. Could do some Googling but I'd rather get some "customer reviews" here first

@m17xr2b yeah pretty much those 2. very high fees for the crappy protection and service they provide.

how about bank wiring?

I quit WF a long time ago. Turns out they where charging me about stuff I never asked for. I'm w a Credit Union now. Never WF again.

If you don’t think WF is bad news, read this. https://ktla.com/2018/06/25/wells-fargo-accused-of-misconduct-again-fined-4m-over-handling-of-market-linked-investments/

Wells Fargo this year alone paid a 1.0B fine in April, 4 million in June a 2.09B fine in August and yesterday agreed to another 575 million. Where is the prison time? They just buy their way out of trouble.

As others have said, change all your relevant passwords. Create unique 12+ character passwords that have random letters, numbers, and special characters and use a password manager to retrieve them when needed

TURN ON 2 FACTOR AUTHENTICATION for your Apple ID and anything else that supports it

Relevant XKCD: https://xkcd.com/936/

Yes, turn on 2FA. I use Macs, but Androids. Use separate email addresses/account names for different accounts.

Most importantly: use a password manager! Distinct passwords for every site.

Without 2FA, the only protection you have is password length. 20+ characters if the site'll let you. If they don't, be wary because they're likely not properly storing your password.

I forgot the burnin and cable psychosis! But talking serious. Alo audio has atlas b stock for 849. You should try that one vs Hifi man.

I actually prefer the RE2000 to the Atlas, if I had to choose between the two. The RE2000 is surprisingly good, I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it really is. Build quality isn't great, but it sounds awesome, IMO. Definitely worth a shot at the sale price.

@Senorx12562 I have heard better Andros than mine, forgot to mention. But the chance of me being able to find that "batch" is slim and I'm also impatient

@Psalmanazar thank you, that looks like a good one. Do you know happen to know how it compares to the Transparent Zero?
@spwath: i would rather just avoid the hassles

Vanatoo are warmer and don't have as much DSP trickery bass extension. Go with iloud as cheaper. Both are boxy small speakers going too low so spend less $$$

@Psalmanazar Thanks man. I will ask the other folks for more opinions then decide which one do I want to stick with.

Ahh, yeah, that's one thing I'll miss. I rarely listen on the go nowadays so gave up on chasing phones with 3.5mm outs, though I maintain phones are better with em.

IME OnePlus make hella great phones, don't think you can go wrong with a 6 at all!

It's worth checking if they've inproved the cameras. I have a 5T and the camera is completely pants. It does horrible jpeg smearing in software.

I was looking at the LG V30 then immediately went back to my iphone 6s. It feels great in the hand but the screen is quite horrible

thing is, apple stuff isn't made for geeks. it's never gonna be a good value proposition for folks that "know better"

The problem is that it has nothing to do with “knowing better” and everything to do with which set of compromises you want to make. Geeks that think they know better by being apple haters lack empathy for the differing values of others

Apple was miles ahead with its lighter OS and certain implementations to streamline processes. Microsoft only caught up with W8 but then failed so hard at marketing that they lost the initiative again. The old MacBook Pros from about 5 years ago were some of the best laptops around. A light OS is such a delight.

Bad idea, good taste in watches though.If you're just going by scarcity it should be a no-brainer. The Metro is sexy as hell though— which one were you eyeing?

I agreed that it is very likely a bad idea too, yet still tempting (that's how my brains typically work). Looking at Tetra, Club and Tangent atm.
Or maybe, just play it safe: sell the AD2000 and get a Max Bill instead :)

Ah you have to go for the Tangent then! Beautiful piece, will likely remain in style for a long time to come.

Still not worth losing the headphones though :P

I'll take the feeling of regret over the feeling of being thrown in a wood chipper.

@BillOhio Depending on which end goes in first you could experience both at the same time.

If you're feeling, you're above ground. If you're above ground, you've got a shot.

Don’t buy all the things.

Ha I definitely won't. Ideally I wouldn't buy any but I might have to pick at least one or two. But lucky for me the loaner program has been on fire lately so I will get to try most of them before pulling the trigger.

I once sold a panerai watch to someone from watchuseek. The tracking stopped updating and he claimed he didn't receive it. PayPal refunded him the money but I had already moved it to an alternate account, which I do with all my sales. So I had a -6000 balance. The kicker is that I found the guys facebook and he was wearing the watch on his profile picture.

After 2 years I felt guilty and called PayPal to settle up. They said it wasn't possible for some reason. Now I pay shipping insurance on anything over $1000 especially when using USPS.

Okay, it has become this bad...
