"preamps are where people get fucked" - Kevin Deal

As an IT guy, I take offense to this. I WILL fight this person if I find out who said this.

I'd jump all over a loaner of these.

The loaner pair I heard were very nice, with slightly I though bass boost so wouldn't work with all genres. Prefer these over the Lcd-4 & Ether 2, though.

And I thought only Audeze were dumb enough to keep doing running changes all the time...

That shit must be so fucking bad in SoCal. I mean it's pervasive everywhere, but you are at the epicenter.

And glutens are totally harmless to the vast majority of people, right? Gluten-free is just a fad.

I love the gluten craze. It has had the side effect of helping people who really need to be gluten free. Both my father and brother have Celiac disease. Gluten literally kills them slowly over time. It's hereditary so I could even develop it anytime. Celiac isn't as uncommon as you'd think.

Someone should invite some of the more outspoken regulars on r/headphones to one of these.

Whereas things-with-moving-parts are usually the least subject to denial that things sound different (it's hard to deny!) where blind tests for transducers come in handy is "Which do you like the best without knowing the label or the price."

All good stuff. And damned hard work. I just buy stuff I like the colour of ;)

How about dirty diaper distribution for the diaper sniffers?

Good idea. Multiple use before disposal.

I support old-fashioned, toweling diapers (nappies, as we Brits call them). But then they tell me that the detergent and fuel used in washing them is just as harmful. The answer is: put baby outside to crap in the street.

The worst part is Weezer existing, and I say that as someone who likes their music.

Ozzy already did with Speak of the Devil. Everything is so overplayed and his redubbed vox are lol

If you cover MJ or Nirvana give it your all. Alien Ant Farm was fun. Patty Smith was legendary. If you want to cover Black Sabbath and MJ you cannot Toto through it. Go balls out and own it...

It's super stressful deciding on the plan, and then what it covers, then the cost of premiums/deductibles/etc. So remove that stressor with UHC. This illusion of choice on what crummier mickey mouse health insurance you can get is a false freedom. You would be freer if you didn't have to worry about such stuff. And hey corporations/small biz would be happier to get out of employer-based insurance too.

Quite frankly, I just wanted my old plan back. The private plans were never a stressor, I didn't want gov't helping me. We had long terms savings, being cheap on a lot of stuff. The stressor only cames when gov't with good intentions tried to help, imposed help, but instead maked everything more expensive with less choice. The good thing is some of this has been fixed, years after the fact.

It's always the same story: When the government come in it always takes away people's choice and make a problem worse.

Indeed, Cap'n. It's still way too noisy here. I still don't who many of these people are, what their knowledge level and experience is, and what their preferences are. And, believe me, I've tried.

OMFG FOTM... JIZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!

Has referral put on the table already? Gives some responsibility to a Friend who puts forward a new member candidate. Guys from Mongolia and Estonia would have probably been left out originally, though.

Apple used to be okay. Thing is all the hipsters and climate awareness sheeple still fall for shiny Apple products with planned obsolescence awaiting them and fashion products that have a short life-span.

It boggles my mind. "Look how shiny!" "Save the planet!"

Yet another thing about Apple I didn't know: that they are supposed to score environment points?

Plainly, though, there's a lot I don't know about Apple kit, because it doesn't interest me. How, for instance, does it score on repairability?

Bad to impossible. Unless you buy their proper pro-gear which nobody talks about...

And after they finish with layoffs (4,000+ people I think?) they should be named "WeDontWork"

$1.7 billion going back to Israel. Who is laughing now?

The Wall Street Journal reported that Neumann had aspirations such as living forever, becoming the world's first trillionaire, expanding WeWork to the planet Mars, becoming Israel’s prime minister, and becoming "president of the world".[33] Interesting chap

They might not like Bugs Bunny, just saying...

The injustice to a wallet filled with less money for an already wealthy man is unspeakable. Such a terrible fate for a man known to sport Royal Oaks like cheap Casios. The horror...

I like em better than Verite Open even though they're more alike than different FR-wise. Looking forward to measurements! Thinking about doing a spider chart for ZMFs myself.

Perfect timing as the limited time launch sale ends on 7th

How to you out-Verite a Verite? Verite Closed - takes all the charms of the Verite and x2.

Fresh meat!!!

Cannibalism is not the answer. Restrain yourself...

He’s garnered quite a few votes of people that voted for his father, the fringes of society, and minorities/refugees that reap the benefits of the welfare/social assistance system. While Veterans that have served are left homeless and without support. He knows who to target for votes, that’s about all he’s good for.

There's a reason I left Canada. I love Toronto, but in the job interviews there, I always got this sense of "oh, you little yellow person" while the elite ruled from their secret underground lair under the Toronto City Hall dome. Hard to explain, just a sense. I actually felt London was more of a meritocracy, like the US. Except with much less working and living space.

I feel like half the outrage about this is fueled by 'white guilt.' =/
