I believe this is actually a myth, post-hoc reasoning to explain away a shitty design

My GTI had triple-square bolts for the seats. The bolts were maybe 1/2" diameter, and I was able to comfortably get a lot of torque on them. Weird design though, and can’t imagine it holding up on smaller, softer screws
In my experience, the Mr. Clean ones hold up much better. Generic melamine sponges tear too easily.
But maybe I’m just getting the wrong generic ones. I’ve tried two or three different generic brands and they all sucked
I have a Mazda CX-5. The track seek buttons are counterintuitive IMO, and the Adaptive Cruise distance buttons are too.
Next track is UP, previous track is DOWN. Not like going down a list.
Adaptive Cruise control is UP to increase distance, DOWN to decrease. This seems like it would make sense, but I would prefer it the other way. UP to get closer, DOWN to pull back the distance
I’ve bought pretty expensive equipment, tube amplifier, many fancy headphones, optical DACs. A library full of FLAC files. I even purchased a $500 portable DAP. I’ve never been able to reliably tell a difference between FLAC and 320k MP3 files. At this point, it really doesn’t concern me anymore either, but I at least like to see my fancy tube amp light up.
I will say, though, $300 seems to be the sweet-spot for headphones for me.
A long time ago when they used the 1-5 star system, I think it was
I totally get it. I think the whole Xbox vs PC vs PS thing has always been annoying. If you just want something simple and cost-effective that works well, you do you.
What’s your full setup? I’ve been running a 5 year old mid-tier AMD CPU, 16gb DDR4, and a 2080 super for the past several years on 1440p ultra-wide. I can get 60Hz at max settings on most AAA titles, and stable 100+Hz on moderate-high settings.
I don’t plan on upgrading for a couple more years, and even then I’ll probably keep my CPU until the mobo or CPU dies, just upgrading the GPU. I’ve never felt compelled to upgrade any other components. Hell, my PSU and original SSD are both almost 10 years old (yes I know I need to switch those out shortly)
But yeah if you’re starting fresh, price to performance with consoles is always better. But it sounds like you’ve got set up already. I do totally agree with you on the GPU market, though. It’s been ridiculous for years, I keep hoping for the market to settle some
I used to get really bad ingrown toenails, I had a podiatrist cut about 1/4 of that toenail out so it can’t grow back in that spot. I don’t remember it being very expensive at all. But this was 10 years ago
Thanks! Glad to be here
I get what you’re saying, but color is weird. There’s a specific term to describe colors that come from light sources, and colors that are a result of an object absorbing light. Brown is more the result of a lack of color
Don’t take my image too seriously, it’s incredibly cherry-picked and not meant to serve as some sort of debate point. Although it does look like a very light shade of brown IRL…
I almost found this out the hard way. I think on the Cisco equipment, it’s something like: Hold for 2 seconds to cycle power. Hold for 5 seconds to wipe config.
Our IT guy nearly had a heart attack when, over the phone, I asked if I should press the little “Reset” on the back.
