Burgers have this weird hardon for making any type of work as uncomfortable as possible. I've never really understood their obsession with making any or all equipment for any type of job that either destroys your body or is just absent entirely like the people who man the cash.

not sure what you mean, you want to remove the metal bars but not foam? to sort of not ruin the look of the chair but have the side bolsters be less firm? sounds really hard to do. they were fully encased in the foam yes.
i mainly just wanted the side bolsters to stop touching and rounding my shoulders. it was especially annoying when reclining. ideally id get rid of the metal bars too, to improve looks and freedom of movement (ability to stretch etc) but i just dont care anymore. ergonomy is much better already which was my main issue

>>107889833
I don't know why thos poster decided to lie, but gamer chairs are pretty much exclusively worse at each price point than a proper desk chair.
Honestly, it's Steelcase or Herman-Miller for me. I will never purchase one at retail price, but spending 350 on my Leap v2 was one of my best purchases (sat in an Aeron for 3 years straight at a friend's house and wasn't a huge fan of the mesh compared to a cushion, but it was also an excellent chair overall)

Yeah, something like that.
I also wasn't planning on going cave man mode on it and just tearing all the seams.
My plan was to remove the cover, saw off just the loop of the metal bar (I knew there was one since I can feel it hitting my fucking shoulders and pushing them in as well), and then replace the foam in that sawed part with some other foam I was gonna buy and cut to fit to the shape of the cover, assuming I couldn't reuse whatever was there.
It is a lot of fucking work so I have been stalling for months but I wanna do it at some point.

They're not bad on my chair, i enjoy how they can go inward and outward so I can feel tucked in, or keep them open and leave myself some extra space.

Does anyone know how well the Z1R pairs with the NW-WM1Z? Is the "synergy" really that good?
>>
>>107896141
Sony do some weird shit with their DAPS and the TA-ZH1ES where the voltage and current is only good enough to run Sony cans and nothing else. So it's probably less of a synergy perse and more everything else sounds ass on them.
Can't really quantify it beyond that - Head-Fi says the synergy is amazing but they also think cables improve sound. SBAF and ASR don't have anything on them because they note that none of the Sony devices power anything other than Sony headphones/IEMs. There isn't fantastic data out there.
The firmware is apparently 11/10 though, better than most DAPS which are just Android + Apps.
>>
>>107891891
even a great headphone can only sound as good as its source.
your headphone jack can be a bigger bottleneck than the headphone. it will scale in performance like how a good monitor looks better when you plug it into a proper pc. except here performance is determined by the distortion level rather than framerate. a headphone that "scales" is one that can tell the difference between sources, and strangely enough, the koss can do this despite their cheap price and light weight driver. they beat every other headphone in comfort, have great tuning and imaging, and only slightly less detail than some other headphones that are multiple times their price and also less comfortable
>>
>>107891891
Scaling is a lot harder to quantify, but what >>107896604 said is functionally correct. Scaling isn't a price-linked thing (don't let anyone tell you otherwise), plenty of sub-$1000 headphones are known for this.

Different anon here.

I spent months trying out ad blockers and eventually landed on uMatrix, which I successfully used for the longest time (years actually), but at some point I wasn't getting good enough results so I started complementing it with uBlock Origin until it bacame good enough on it's own and allowed me to finally make the move to wean myself off uMatrix altogether, and that's what I've been relying on ever since.

Question is, what does shields offer that uBlock doesn't?

LMAO

All one has to do is look at pictures of the LEM to see it's a badly built model. There are shower curtains and scotch tape on it for fucks sake.

Then there are the obvious faked later missions where the shuttles were launching obvious models. Oh and the 101 times they got caught on the ISS live feed and were forced to cut the feed.

The logo is a snake tongue for crying out loud lmao. They even murdered the Apollo 1 astronauts because they were talking so much shit about the sad state of affairs.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you proprietary slave? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class at Harvard, and I’ve been involved in numerous free software projects, and I have contributed to over 300 core-utils for GNU. I am skilled in Lisp and I’m St. IGNU-cius, saint of the Church of Emacs. You are nothing to me but just another unethical non-free software advocate. I will distribute the fuck out of your source code with freedom the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit about me and the GPL on the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my colleagues at FSF and your binaries are being reversed engineered right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your copyright. You're fucking dead, kid. Free software can be anywhere, anytime, and it can ensure your freedom in over four ways, and that’s just with the GPLv2. Not only am I extensively skilled at hacking, but I have access to the source of the entire GNU userland and core-utils and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable proprietary code off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what ethical retribution your little “clever” program was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have ensured your users' freedom. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit free as in freedom all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Treat yourself, your person, as a business, and not as an individual, and it will fall into place. What do businesses do to get new customers? Marketing, competitive analysis, providing specific services, etc. Sorry to say it but getting a job in tech is not like getting a job at McDonalds, this is the reason so many fail to get employment in tech because they either don't understand what it takes or don't want to do what it takes

I agree this is an unfair burden for a fucking helpdesk job, but don't look at it as a monumental amount of effort to get a helpdesk job, look at it as a monumental amount of effort to get a life changing career in tech that will see you grow into 6 figure roles and earn that money for years to come (inb4 ai doomers (you) me)

At what point does the syntax become so terrible that its simply not worth using the language no matter the benefits it might have under the hood? Because c# is the most disgusting shit ive ever seen in my life. Why would they call it "c#"? It doesnt seem similar to c in any way. I mean to be honest the only thing ive ever done with it is write hello world then immediately rage deleted .NET off my system because the syntax disgusted me so much. Whats confusing to me is knowing that many people have actually kepy using the lang after that point. Whats the worst syntax youve ever seen?
