Why is this a thing
>>106441381
>>106441399
I think I need to go to a shoe shop and find something that fits well then, if I buy from the chinks I'll probably end up getting something that's either too tight or too loose.

>>106441451
when i put the back strap on it feels like the shoe size shrinks 0.5-1 size down and that lets me run without being afraid that it'll slip off
i usually have it strap off when going in and out of the house
you're right about actually trying them on, and you'll need to look at the design of the chink crocs when you're ordering as well as not all crocs are the same. some crocs groove inwards like a bowl while others are completely flat. then there's also the ankle/heel fin - some clogs have them real high while sometimes they're minimal/low

Anons, I need you to shill me a 900000rpm violent turbo fan to choose. There are five billion variant of these, some with stepped speed, some with knob adjusted speed. Some with an integrated battery, some with removable Li-ion cells.

Though the two most important things I'm looking for are:
-it's not complete dogshit quality wise
-it has a vacuum attachment
The latter is so that I can also use it as a car vacuum since that would come in extremely handy to have on top of having something stronger than canned air that runs on electricity.

>>106442040
It simply will not work as a vacuum. They are designed for high airflow, adding a filter will ruin that airflow and it'll hardly move any air.

I know because I got one that came with vacuum accessories and I had to just throw them away.

>>106442648
People buying blowers which can double as vacuums are huffing the same hopium as buying cheap air purifiers or 1L dehumidifiers. Designated e-waste.

>csg doesn't even recommend cheap chinese SD cards anymore
how the turn tables. have tariffs really affected this general this much?

>>106442648
Alright then, if that's a bad idea, what would be a good turbo blower and a good portable vacuum for cleaning up my car and other small places?

Is it worth it to go the chink route for picrel? I just want a small pen tablet for whenever I feel the need to handwrite rather than use a keyboard. For reference this can be had for like 30 euros on amazon with next day delivery. From a cursory look on ali comparable stuff is around the 20/30 euros price point with delivery who knows when

>>106443169
Look for Huion or XP-Pen. The Chinese have been shitting all over Wacom for years now. You don't even need to go to Ali to find a cheap drawing tablet.

>>106443169
I'll second Huion, they're better value than Wacom.
I nearly went with XP-Pen when I got it too, read good things about it.

>>106443188
Yeah I already had an xp-pen variant bookmarked on amazon, ~25 euros and similar specs to the Wacom one I linked.
I guess I can just go for one on Amazon then? the price seems to be in line with what I can see on Ali (same xp-pen model seems to be ~20 euros)

>>106443150

I bought this bike pump off Aliexpress almost 2 months ago and it already exploded.

I barely used it 6 times (more like 4), but suddenly it just exploded while pumping and something flew off from its side. The pressure gauge could measure up to 140PSI, but I was barely hitting 35.

I contacted customer service, explained what happened and gave them my email adress. Not sure if it was the store's or Aliexpress's, but the the chat interface is awful with insane amounts of AI crap.

Is there any hope for some kind of refund or getting another pump? I'm out of the refund window, but I liked the pump...

>>106444578
do you have action store in your city
they have really good cheap pumps

>>106443489
You're better off not buying anything if that's what you have in mind, literal e-waste.
Get a Logitech K400 and half-decent mouse instead.

>>106444718
Never ever heard of that store.

Locally, you can't find jackshit here, there are only two options and only one is leg-operated. I have a serious issue with finding a proper pump, at this point, anywhere!
I kept buying these garbage German made pumps that were designed like 60 years ago, but they start leaking every few months, if they're not defective right out of the bat. Stores even stopped storing them, since they're so shit.

How the fuck are we still not capable of making pumps that fucking work??! I'm goddamn desperate here...

>>106444975
where are you at?

>>106445028
Eastern EU small town in a small shithole.
Ordering from abroad is the only option, but the taxes are absolute rape. I'm reluctant to risk spending 150$ on some fancy pump, that could fall apart just as easily and in the end is made in China anyways.

the strap is tighter around the heel so it will keep the shoes on if you're running or some shit but it also means you can't just slip them on and off as easily. i have some i leave by my back door for walking around the yard and never use it.

You have to be chronically online to play the metagames or whatever. Every sale they come up with some different mechanic. You have be on it and figure out the game mechanic fast as it's unfolding.
Last summer it was gambling on eurocup.
This summer there was something completely different. It was different for different regions too.

I know there's some fishing anons lurking in here occasionally.
I've been using a carbon fiber telescopic rod for a few years, it was pretty cheap (for local prices) at the time; long story short I got a good bite by a pike yesterday and the tip of my rod broke.
Since it's kinda not been all that special or great in the first place, I'm tempted to buy a new one rather than order a replacement tip and I'm pondering if aliexpress fishing rods can be any good.
Part of me is skeptical, part of me uses aliexpress shit for shelter and warmth during hiking, and I trust that shit with my life, so what do I know.

Are there meme brands where you know you're getting something very good for the price, similarly to naturehike or widesea for hiking, except for fishing rods? I'd pair it with a mid-market daiwa spinning reel if that matters (the one currently on my broken rod).

what are some tea related stuff I can get from Ali? I know jack shit of tea, but my mom is into it and I'd like to buy her something.

>>106448244
She probably has all the stuff she would need to brew tea already so stuff like chinese infusers doesn't carry that much value. Maybe a bamboo tea tray.
If she likes the autistic ceremonial approach you could get her a "gaiwan" which is a traditional chinese tea brewing vessel but they've gotta be used in a different way than modern tea infusers (and they need loose leaf tea ofc) so she might think it's too much of a bother.
If she's on the more lazy "I just wanna put a tea bag in and stop thinking" end maybe you could get her a mug warmer.

there's teapets that are pretty cute. they are associated with chinese tea ceremonies, but I think they could be fun for any tea enjoyer. would probably need to supply a tea board / tea tray with that, if ur mum doesn't already own one.

according to wikipedia, the piss boy is one of the more traditional designs. supposedly, he soaks up cold water because he's made of clay and 'releases' a stream of liquid when you pour hot water over him.

NTA but 70 is the daily check-in, and you get another 5 for using the widget for a total of 75.

>>106448427
Oh right, all is well, then. I'm not placing that ugly shortcut. Btw how the hell they verify that I'm using a shortcut? What kind of glowie operation is that?

>>106448453
I don't know how it works on the backend, but essentially the app knows where you come from when you open it, think of it like the tracking in a link header. You can get additional "boni" for gems, coins and watering game via widgets and they are universally ugly, as you said.
Also for some reason the gem widget only recognizes that you're coming from the widget the second try each day.
Honestly much like most activities and games on ali it's all not worth the effort. Just get your daily coin check-in as it's the one bonus worth having and maybe if you're feeling fancy do the gem check-in too (which means daily spin, daily cheaper gacha ball and then daily check-in on the candy crush clone as it gives gems too).
Anything beyond that borders on mental illness. Arguably this is already deranged to do daily.

>>106448483
Thanks. I think each shortcut is placed with some initialization parameter, which is then verified on startup.
Agreed, it's all literally a huge time waster and soulless grind and I'm not even employed right now.

So let me get this straight. on the coins super discount you can only buy now, never add to cart? So you cant get that free shipping unless you find something 10$+ which is rare?

>>106451184
what is coins super discount? you can add coin stuff to cart

>>106451271
Pretty sure they mean discount finder.
>>106451184
You can add coin stuff to cart (you couldn't in the past), but it doesn't always work and I've not yet found why it's sometimes one way and sometimes the other. Just double check before paying to make sure.

>>106451184
>>106451338
No, discount finder and coins super discount are two separate things. From my experience, you can never add to cart from coins super discount, but you can from discount finder, unless the discount is above ~80%.

what is the most useful/novelty stuff you bought, /csg/ ?

>>106453467
>Most useful
Probably my kitchen knives, I use them every day and have done so for years.
Then tablet and headphones, makes travel more enjoyable.
Keyboard too I suppose, since it's a pleasure to use still.
On the cheap spectrum, those 2€ magnetic EDC flashlights for when I'm fixing shit in the house.
Calipers for 3D printing, the wiha bitset and soldering iron all get a honorable mention as I use all 3 regularly.
>Most enjoyable
Outdoor equipment, tent, sleeping bag, sleeping pad, backpack. I sleep like a king on hikes and at the same time it weighs less and costs less than what others have that I go with.
Mechanical watches
>Novelty
Custom pillow cases, those ear cleaners with a camera to look inside your ear canal, solar fairy lights that I use to light up my balcony at night for mood lighting.

I have been eyeing the knives and IEMs too, is the csg guide still the go to resource or is it outdated in regards to the brands?

File: file.png (861 KB, 865x653)

>>106453618
Depends on what you want.
IEMs I can't speak to, I use TWS instead of IEMs. For TWS, scarbir is your best resource. The guide is still true in the sense that it explains conceptual stuff, but for brands it's outdated by about a year. That doesn't matter for some product categories, but for those where a lot of new products get released all the time it is outdated no idea if IEMs have enough releases to warrant that. There's a iemg on g though so maybe ask there.

As for knives, you want to especially read the /ck/ knife guide linked in the csg guide and then decide what type of knife you want. My most used and daily driver is the shibazi F208 still, which I adore, but it's a unusual (for the west) shape, so I can't give it as a universal suggestion.
In picrel that's the one on the right.
There's also a lot of good quality steel with cheaper quality cladding knives out there that you can have a joy with. Same steel as the shun knive in that pic (on the left), but a quarter the price easily (or even less)

>>106453618
>IEMs
For wired, check the /iemg/ rentry. I'd say there's older stuff not listed that's worth considering, but it's a good resource for worthwhile recent releases.
For wireless, seconding scarbir. I'd take the specifics with a grain of salt, but if something's propped up on that site it probably deserves it.

there's a trend of original, affordable chinese blind box fashion dolls. they're like a mis of classic BJD and action figures
i think they're able to offer so much for the price because of the blind box factor, they make a rare variant and collectors who must have every version buy much more to get those. But Ali's Changs just check the boxes and let you buy the one you want removing the random factor. It's great, they also do this with capsule toys but they upcharge more with those in my experience

Watched a TTC review and it has it at 483-ftlbs after 5 seconds in tightening. If it can do close to that on 5/16" hose, I'll be happy.

Bought a watch because it was hilariously cheap.
It's mechanical, has a steel case, a leather strap (albeit a kinda shit one), applied markers on the dial (i.e. not just flat printing) and I got it for 18€ shipping included. I don't think I could get an f91w for that price here. This was slightly discounted due to back to school deals, but not by that much.

I'm not going to wash my hands every time I want to grab my glass for a drink.
I'm not going to get up to wash my hands between bites if I need to check my phone.
If I have to eat at my desk, I'm definitely not touching a keyboard or mouse after handing food with my bare hands.
For finger food that doesn't need a burger tier grip or picking meat off a bone, chopsticks are simply more convenient.

+ 5 hours of juice, up from 4 on the old model
+ game mode is like 0ms delay, probably the selling point of these buds
+ battery indicator display (nice)
+ emphasis on lows (bass). punchy and makes every song sound vibrant. good for edm and brainmelt music if you're into it
+ excellent connectivity and no dropouts as of testing
+ fit well in my ears with no fatigue despite their size. superb isolation with its seal. nice and lightweight.

- don't think you can change the voice prompts from chinese
- bass is overtuned and will muddy + drown out mids and highs if the volume is too high
- mic is serviceable at best, around the level of the moondrops

overall: 3 fucken dollaridoos for an excellent backup set of earbuds. best for youtube and gaming, passable for music.

I actually had a very good experience with Ali returns so far. Once I've got a set of IEMs with wild channel imbalance out of the box, that was an adventure to show on video. And the other time I returned an amp that stopped working almost three months in, and it had a 90 day warranty which actually worked. And for smaller stuff (like 5-10 bucks and below) they often just refund me without giving a seller a chance to respond since I'm a VIP Platinum Diamond Pro Ultra member apparently.

Titanium chopsticks make pretty much zero sense.
Firstly there's no advantage titanium has over stainless steel at home, as the biggest advantage it has over stainless is the weight savings, which don't matter for you at home at all. The only acceptable exception is when hiking, but then the form factor of chopsticks becomes an issue, in which case you want to have chopsticks that screw together at the halfway point to make them easier to store - all of which are made of stainless not titanium.
Titanium also is rather soft metal, so they'll get dents and shit over time, which will be nasty as it'll look like you chewed on them.
Apart from that, they have the same issue all metal chopsticks have, they're not super pleasant on your teeth (then again it won't matter, as it doesn't with normal forks either), and they're more slippery, meaning less good grip to ingredients. If you want re-usable easy to clean chopsticks get those fiberglass ones, that's the ones I have.

>>106458106
>a leather strap (albeit a kinda shit one)
That looks dogshit and will break within a month of use max, more likely 2 weeks. You can get cheap straps though as part of bundles for under 2$, which are the ones I'm using on my aliexpress mechanical watches (one manual one automatic). Definitely will make your watch feel a lot nicer if you get one of those.
For the future I'd recommend automatic watches, the winding up gets tiresome, but the ability of manuals to see the action from the back is mesmerizing I'll admit.

Anyone here ever used one of those 1€ if delayed coupons?
I usually just ignore them because "delayed" tends to mean late by a day or so and unless I planned to order something anyways, a 1€ discount doesn't justify a new purchase to begin with.
However this time I do have some more stuff I wanted to order, so it'd come in handy.

Do I request that coupon after it arrived, or before while it's still in transit? If so, how/where?
I got an email by my local carrier that it'll arrive tomorrow, so if I have to claim it before arrival I'll have to do it today, hence why I'm asking.

Yeah I'm planning to replace it, it uses 19mm width straps which is slightly annoying because 18mm and 20mm are much more common.
And yeah I imagine the winding is gonna get tiresome, but I mainly got this thing because of how stupidly cheap it was for a mechanical watch. If I was buying a watch more seriously and not for the novelty I'd get an automatic.

Ah yeah 19 is a bit rare, but you should still be able to find some, leather might be harder but the synthetic ones should come in any size imaginable.
>but I mainly got this thing because of how stupidly cheap it was for a mechanical watch
You can actually get automatic watches in the bundle section by the "winner" brand for ~15€ though no idea if their movement is any good, last time I looked it seemed hit or miss with QC, so some got amazing value that worked perfectly for years while some got shit that broke within a few months.
If you want an actually good movement, look into watches with a NH35A movement, there's a few to choose from. Picrel the third from the left is a tandorio with that movement and cost me like 45€ at the time. Been my daily pretty much. The second from the left is also great, one of those chinese airforce watches, a Chronograph 1963. Has some history behind it and while it's a manual, for 67€ it's still a steal honestly. The picture doesn't do it justice, it looks amazing in person due to the texturing they did on the watchface.

The desk pad arrived in record time and looks great. It feels surprising how smooth it is when you sit down and use it, from a few feet away the rug texture is very convincing.

Only two issues because I'm a nitpicking asshole; the string around the edge is fraying in one place, and the pad is somewhat shiny, not matte, so it reflects the sunlight from certain angles and seems unnatural.

UPDATE

Big shocker, the pump I bought new locally for 3x the price is also shit. It doesn't attach to the valve, completely destroys the threading on it, leaks air like ur mom leaks my cum and gets stuck all the time needing to unstuck by hand, completely defeating the purpose of a foot pump.
Luckily, the local store is willing to take back their shitty pump even without a warranty. Unfortunately, I'll have to waste 5$ and 2 days of my life to travel back to their store.

DO NOT BUY ANY OF THESE PUMPS THEY ARE ALL UNRELIABLE GARBAGE!

Reality is a bit less exciting.
I can't afford the travel fare and my village's gypsy lord normally doesn't allow me leaving my fields anyways. However, I'm a very good servant and can always petition successfully to my lord's relatives to bring me along as their attendant for their next thieving journey to the town. This means I can visit the town for free, only having to pay for my donkey's fare!

Thanks, saved.

I'm going to hedge my bets and invest into a battery pump next though. If that fails, then I'm back to square one and try your pump.

The battery pumps are supposedly decent, my father has one he takes with himself on his bike. Personally I just hate having anything that needs recharging, but if you don't mind that drawback it's great.

Also if portability is your number one concern, that pump I posted is still somewhat large. You can easily put it in a bag or something, but for strapping it to your bike it takes up quite some space. Personally I use it at home to refill my bike (left it in the communal bike shed to farm good boy neighbor points), for actually on the go uses, I use picrel. Obviously not a ideal solution and not a foot pump, but it's enough to get me going if I need to. I also carry one of those puncture foam repair kits, gets you out of any pickle you may find yourself and at least guarantees you manage to ride home.
Other than that, depending on how often you anticipate to need it, there's also those pump kits that use CO2 cannisters for mountain bikers. Very expensive compared to the other options, but quick (maximum airflow which you need to seat tubeless tires), easy to use and no recharging. Then again any use means you have to buy a new cannister and you only get as many tries as you have cannisters, so you better not fuck it up in the field or you're stranded.

>>106463634
how often do you pump out your house anyway?
you could get an electric one for your house and a co2 cartridge one for emergencies repairs

I remember there was anon recommending cleaning robots some time ago. Would anyone have any experience with Xiaomi branded ones, specifically the X20 Pro or Max?
I know these are not actually built by Xiaomi but by other brands (I guess this one by Dreame considering the X10 was?), but it is way cheaper than comparable Dreame robots over here (300/400 euros vs 600~1000 euros)

>>106463845
I have asked about vacuums, but got sidetracked when I saw that X20+ was the hot shit in my country and, as you said, way cheaper than similar specced robots
Paid 360 for mine and it seems pretty good, although the first day was a fucking pain in the ass, it got into a bootloop or some bullshit, couldn't really reset it and when I could, it would go offline the second it started charging
left if for a day out of the dock and everything seems fine now, it's possible there was a problem with that piece of shit needing a simple wifi password - only lowercase and numbers, no spaces etc.
After I got it working, it does what is says I guess, much better than an old xiaomi one I had without lidar for ~200€(essential or some shit, their naming was all over the place at the beggining)
iirc max and pro come with heat drying the pads, which I thought to be a waste of electrical power, since they all dry for 4hrs by default anyway
empty the dirty water tank the same or the next day, because that shit reeks

Fucking niggers now I got to wait another 2minutes to post, motherfucker

>>106463694
That looks interesting, maybe I could work with that, but I'm not a fan of having to sit on the ground to use it (it can be a pain to get up).
I don't really need a second pump, I want a single small one that I can take along with myself when I take a long trip or bring my bike to another city. I had several punctures in faraway towns before (big cities are all shitholes with trash everywhere, including glass shards) and I don't want to risk getting stuck. My other reason for a small foot pump is that I have no real space for a standing pump, but a nice little shelf for a compact foot pump.
My bike is also rather small and has outside wiring, making it difficult to attach things to its frame. I use my basket to carry stuff.
I'm okay with recharging things, unless I have to do it daily. I'm more afraid of the spontaneous combustion of the lithium battery.
I've never heard of CO2 canisters and I'm 100% sure they're not sold anywhere. They're really not the solution for my issues.

It's really a whole lot of combined reasons from health to lack of space, why foot pumps or battery pumps are the only workable solutions for me.
Thanks anyways, I saved it just in case.

>>106463712
>how often do you pump out your house anyway?
Very rarely, but if I get a puncture too far away from home, I'm literally stranded. I rely entirely on my bicycle for mobility. I want to keep using my legs as much as possible, as long as possible.

>(it can be a pain to get up)
aint that the truth.
Memes aside, it comes with a small rubber hose the size of the housing inside, which fixes the main issue of these hand pumps, namely that you have to hold them at an awkward angle to attach to the valve. That being said, the amount of air it moves is atrociously little, which is why it's just good for emergencies. Super small too (17 cm) so easy to store on the bike.
For your usecase of taking it with you on vacation or when in another city for a few weeks, you'll definitely want something else, such as the electric ones you're considering.
>I've never heard of CO2 canisters
Yeah they're pretty much only a thing in the mountain biking community due to their tubeless setups. A decathlon will sell them, but they're not really what you want, more of an emergency thing.
>I'm more afraid of the spontaneous combustion of the lithium battery.
Unless it's fully charged and you fall with your bike and it punctures the battery, you don't have to be, that product category is a fairly mature one. You'll likely be happy with that.
>but if I get a puncture too far away from home, I'm literally stranded
Honestly, you don't want to get a pump for that usecase, you'd have to patch the tire in the field too after all. Instead buy a cheap saddle bag and put one of picrel inside. That's a decathlon one but there's plenty brands that make them, called "tire puncture repair spray" usually. For schrader valves they are 0 skill "get out of jail free" cards. You screw it on, press the button, move the tire, and it automatically seals the puncture and re-inflates your tire within a minute. It works with some foam that hardens, so it'll fill the tube and you should remove it and get a new one when home, but a tube and a new spray is under 6€, a worthy price for peace of mind. This shit saved my ass multiple times already when I've ridden too aggressively in the forest in the middle of nowhere and got a puncture.

Fellas, I ride my bicycle to work and back every working day for the last 12 years and I used to get around 1 puncture a month, tried everything like thick-rubber tires and anti-puncture bands with little success. I haven't got a single flat tire for almost 4 years now after I put some slime in the tubes. Last week, a tiny piece of wire lodged itself into the front tire, lost some air, pulled to the side of the road, found the naughty bastard and pulled it out. Pumped some air back in and went home. This shit fucking works.
Got mine from a local store for 8€, here's a link of something similar: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008554714392.html
Mine was enough for both tires. Changed old ones last June, kept old tubes with the sealing slime inside.

Henry is pretty much of a classic home vacuum size. The form factor resembles shop vacs, sure, but size wise it's manageable.

>>106465956
Yeah slime is basically what mountainbikers use. It's just a pain in the ass to get into the tubes, while the spray I suggested you only need to pump in there in the emergency and it's far less of a mess (as it screws onto the valve).
If you're willing to fill the tubes though, or buy a tube that has it already, it's definitely a nice option.

>But why would I do that?
If you have a bunch of different computers
that you've setup to do different things for you
but you can't be bothered to download and properly setup firefox on each of them.

So you setup firefox properly just once on the usb stick,
and you use the stick from each computer and you need to do maintenance on them (eg: downloading stuff, interacting with the driver scanner, etc).

>Is that a way to "sandbox" Firefox even more?
Browser profiles on a regular firefox install is superior to portable firefox as
in portable firefox you can only have the one browser profile in the portable firefox directory...
Maybe you could have multiple portable firefox directories? One for banking, one for everything else. I haven't tried.
