How many ways can we rewrite the allegory of the cave?

Fwiw after that whole thing made news she released a press statement that did call him a war criminal

Don’t forget there was also a bunch of government-backed troll farms shut down recently

I feel her pain. It took me a long time to get comfortable with the Kinesis, and even longer to be able to go back and forth with my gaming keyboard seamlessly

As suggested by the other commenter, o-rings are the best cheap solution.

Another option that works if your keyboard has a hollow body is sound-dampening insulation inside the frame.

I have a Kinesis Advantage that has a ton of negative space inside and simply putting some non-conductive foam inside the shell made a huge difference in the amount of noise it makes

You’re correct on all fronts, but I guess what I would point out is that those design elements were a staple of the FF franchise long before 7. It was another turn based strategy role playing game in a series of turn based strategy role playing games. With OOT you had a real time action adventure franchise with a game using design elements you’d expect from…well, from a turn based strategy role playing game xD

That’s where I have issues with OOT in hindsight. It stumbled in executing on its own self-image, whereas FF7 did a better of job of understanding itself

OOT is objectively bad in hindsight, despite having played it like 20 times myself because of the place it holds in my memory as being something I’d never experienced before. Here’s the argument: https://youtu.be/XOC3vixnj_0?si=xnuSdmY942tBQGpp

FF7 has its flaws but IMO is a better designed game

To my knowledge it wasn’t his decision. It was Kathleen Kennedy. Poe was a favorite among kids and helped sell a boatload of X-Wing toys. He was seen as the “Han Solo of the sequels” and Disney execs all but forced Rian to give him screen time. They couldn’t really reduce Rey’s role so Finn got screwed

I’m with you 100% on everything you wrote here and I’ve had this argument with my brother countless times. He blames Rian Johnson for everything bad about the sequels and it’s bs.

Personally I think the biggest thing TLJ suffered from was the split focus between Poe and Finn. It made both stories rushed or weak in various places.

And for that I blame Disney. Did you know that Poe wasn’t even supposed to be a big character? He was supposed to be in the first scene of Ep7 and that’s it. But execs saw his performance and insisted they needed his character to play a bigger role. As such, we get attention split between Poe and Finn and both suffer for it.

I feel awful for John Boyega who was such a massive Star Wars fan, got the role of his dreams, and then effectively got sidelined for a pretty-boy.

Have you enabled Developer Options=> USB Debugging?

You can turn it off again after. Instructions here: https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/dev-options

In theory you could take frequency response measurements inside your car and use those :p

The AutoEQ project is actively updated with a repo on GitHub. You may be able to download the “GraphicEQ” file from this page Search that page for “Jabra Elite”

The DUMP setting can usually be enabled via ADB (simple connection to a PC). Instructions here if you search for “Enhanced session detection” on Wavelet’s site

You can use WebADB without installing anything on your PC.

It’s not just Moto. I dislike Dolby Atmos for everything except improving the sound of small speakers (laptops, phone speakers, etc) or when the media itself is recorded and mixed with it in mind

I find most of what Dolby does to be ridiculously bass-heavy and destroys the mids. That includes their headphones. You lose a lot of detail and the sound stage becomes muddy. It’s plenty wide but so overwhelmed by bass that other details are lost

IMO it’s overpriced basic-consumer-focused crap that takes advantage of people who think what they need is just more bass

I have a moto and hate Dolby Atmos for headphones

Instead, turn that shit completely off and get an app called “Wavelet”. Use the AutoEQ function with your headphones model.

The purpose of the AutoEQ is to return audio to “studio reference” EQ based on the measured frequency response curve of the model of headphones you have

If it still sounds bad to your ears then there are two possibilities:

1. The hardware is defective. You could try getting it replaced

2. Your old phone has settings that were so bass-heavy that your sense of what’s “right” has changed

I recommend trying out AutoEQ on another device that you know works. Make sure that all other audio processing is disabled when using AutoEQ. This will give you a good baseline to compare against

On Windows you can get AutoEQ using EqualizerAPO + HeSuVi (a front-end for setting up EqualizerAPO to enable custom virtual surround sound and AutoEQ)

As far as I’m aware, unless you’re already B12 deficient, the B12 in 5hr Energy doesn’t do much of anything because it already hangs around in your blood stream for a long, long time. Half life on B12 in the body is something like 6 days and excess is even stored in the liver instead of excreted.

Can’t speak to the other ingredients but I’d guess it’s all the same: either it’s already available in abundance if you’re eating a decent diet, or the half life is close to that of caffeine

Not even. I can’t speak for others but the effects of 5hr Energy pretty much disappear after those 5 hours are up. Half the caffeine dose isn’t enough to do much of anything, at least for me. So it’s essentially a waste. I’m sure it depends on things like BMI but to get 5hrs of half-assed energy you’d need to consume 3/4ths of a dose, which would leave you with roughly half the experience of a 5hr Energy (that is, half the difference between the caffeine in your system immediately after drinking one dose and 5hrs after drinking one)

Caffeine has a half-life in the human body of approximately 4-6 hours. So this means that the “5 hours” in 5hr Energy is just the amount of time it takes for your body to process half the caffeine away.

Therefore drinking half of a 5hr Energy would be 0 hours of the advertised level of energy. At best it would be like drinking a 5hr Energy and then immediately fast-forwarding 5 hours
