Are there any non-shit projector options? I don't expect quality for less than 200, but maybe someone found some decent ones?
>>107217829Define non-shit.The absolute cheapest that's not essentially e-waste is the HY300, but that's still very much on the shit spectrum for those who want to use it as a regular driver. I got one and it's fine for my usecase, review was in >>105737799If you wanted to use it as a home cinema setup I'd get something more expensive though.
Would this be any good?
I boughted a Viltrox 56mm f1.2 lens from the aliex 11.11 sale for 55% off msrp assuming my external cashback goes throughSaved myself like 300usd
so, i got like 20+ things during this sale. looks like their shipping are not getting consolidated and i will get 20+ tiny packages in the mail. the post office is gonna put me on a list, arent they?
>>107217989Keep an eye out for this deliveryman
>>107217581Worst one I saw is that vid of a Chinese dude with an ebike battery boarding an elevator and it started burning catastrophically the moment the doors close. At least there's a good news, the elevator successfully contained the fire so it did not spread further.
>accidentally kneeled on the end of my 5m toocki 3.5mm extension and broke the pinREEEEEEEEEEE
>>107217829>>107217861I have hy300, for the price it's great, but if I wanted to put more money and could hang a tv somewhere I would go that route
>>107217685>Anon reviews ... something. I thought it was heatshrinkSome kinds of heatshrink tubing has glue on the inside for a more secure fit.
>>107218181Oh I wasn't aware of that, that makes sense then. Thanks for enlightening me anon.
>>107217972i mean maybe? cannot find shit on that chip but it looks really fucking cool yet educative, so, link?
I was considering one of these fleece cozies for comfy nights.They come in 4 sizes:- 180 cm (1.1 kg fabric)- 150 cm(900g fabric)- 120 cm (800g fabric)- 110 cm (700g fabric)Price isn't prohibitive for any of the versions, so let's put that aside, but I was wondering what size I should get. I'm 184cm tall for reference. From my chair to my head it's ~90 cm.115cm would be to my knees.150 is to somewhere down my shins.180 is basically down my entire body almost.On the one hand, it being too short seems like it'd defeat the point somewhat as it'd just be a fuzzy sweater.On the other I fear too long is a pain to wear and walk around in at home, and a pain to get off since you seem to just slip in at the bottom.Currently unsure between 120 and 150 cm.What would (you) choose?
What mechanical keyboards are recommended to buy from chang?

>The EU 27 economy ministers reached an agreement on Thursday to terminate the €150 customs duty exemption that currently applies to parcels coming from non-EU countries.normalniggers just have to ruin everything, don't they? so now we get longer delivery times, custom duty and a flat-rate custom handling fee
>>107218948If you don't appreciate fleece you're either delusional or never had nice fleece.It's not wool obviously, but it's very nice to wear.>>107218968I get that but I'm not a woman, so I kinda value the ability to move when wearing one and I'm not used to wearing what's essentially a dress.
>>107219138Just think of it like a robe, homo.
>>107219160Harder to get on, harder to move in, harder to get off, weirdly restricting.Nah
>>107219186Never bothered them one bit.
>>107219317They didn't have pants to choose anon. Only loincloths.
Not what I'm hoping to find on a late night aliexpress gooning sesh.
On the surface, this seems like a great idea.but it just doesn't look like it's attached all that rigidly. maybe it's worth a try, but I get the feeling they'll just sit in a part bin tray for years.

>>107217972Not all that relevant, but it reminded of a video that got me into more interesting prototyping electronics more than a decade ago.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5MNLTc7YhY>>107217685The heatshrink tubing is often called "marine" heatshrink, and I always thought it a gimmick until I found it cheap enough to try. It's got a hotmelt glue lining on the inside. I've been using it to form strain reliefs.>>107219615>>107219567my bad, here link https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256809905870340.html
>>107219567>>107219638i think i would add a little of the lead of a resistor or whatever you cut before on the two big pads where usually a through hole supports are in the microusb oneand yeah a bit of epoxy in the sides
>>107217659?
>>107217659>>107219765if the proposal is the same as the debated months ago is 2 euros per haul. i mean i am against that, but is not really that relevant.
>>107219826But what if I order products for 2€? Then the price would double
Any recommendations/experiences with aliexpress onaholes?
>>107219849a big? part of the idea is to stop the need to process million different small packages and instead forcing hauls.the current situation is a mess for the customs and mail operators
>>107219680I assume i'll be able to find large enough pads to solder the outer shell to a ground point.
Here’s the haul from my first 11.11 sale, I can’t believe the first package arrived after 25 hoursFrog sleeping mask 1€, WT32-ETH 1.5€, DMX Splitter 22€, 30W charger + 2 lighting cables 7.5€ Everything seems to work, but the color of the mask could be more realistic, and I should have bought one longer cable
>>107219873how is it a mess? Ali sends consolidated ordersI don't think I've received any order that wasn't like 10 packages in 1
i keep procrastinating my 11/11 order....
>>107219873>>107220070The problem is if I want to use coupons effectively, I often have to do multiple orders even if I would prefer to combine it in one order
Decent label printer with easy to find replacement sticky paper?

>>107219853All I can say is avoid the extremely cheap ones. I bought a $10 one once for the lulz (I was led astray by the cute lolis on the packaging), the tunnel had absolutely no texture. I want my lolis to have flat chests, not flat vaginal walls.

>>107220089waiting for BF to line up my coupons, ali cb, topcb and shopping credit. 11/11 was a preview of the prices.
>>107218560literally anything that supports keycap/switch swap is fine.
>>107220471i thought 11/11 was bigger than bf?topcb/quidco are spotty for me. end up having to chase things down months later and eventually just can't be arsed. i forgot about ali cb though. Might be worth making an order sooner so i get the cb to use on the next one before the sale ends
>>107216973my $5 enchen boost claims ceramic. at this pricepoint i believe it's some sort of ceramic coating on plastic but it does feel different from normal plastic when you run your fingers against it. my old pair was still very sharp after 7 years of use.
>>107220460I didn't really follow it - and to be fair I usually try to stay out of anons beefing. When I'm tripfagging I should provide the OP and news, maybe answer questions to the OP and leave it at that.If I have opinions they are posted the same as anyone else - anonymously.
>>107220501topcb (au) gave 20% during 11/11 and will do it again when BF comes. it's been this way for the last few years now for me personally. the only difference for me this year is that i have a few coupons lined up from playing the games which sweetens the pot. topcb customer service always comes through for me, but like you i have to wait months to get my money.

any good emulation machines that are worth getting? I have a phone that can emulate already, though.
>>107221757I have one of those, it's smart and does not overcharge your cells. Sadly it is too "smart" for its own good, if you have cells that are below the charging voltage you'll need to put them in a dumb charger for a while to resuscitate them.
>>107190565zhang delivered, again
>>107223007>>107190565furthermore, pic related.but i actually wanted the shit on that order, i got some great deals (i would have to pay about 50% more now for an order with the same shit) and some stuff isnt even available anymore (only listings are at twice the price, even on ali).best case scenario is the package will still arrive after the 18th and i still get the full autmatic refund, had that happen once when their system didnt registered an already delivered package as such :^)
Where do I import Chinese cigarettes?
>>107222339how do you not cut your ballsack with trimmers? I struggled with this
>>107219617yeah right now im using a keychron c3 pro, I wasnt exacly safe with it as I remember spilling a bunch of whiskey on it at some point and now the W key is messy with the inputs so thats why im considering getting a new oneif I can get my hands on a borrowed soldering iron could I just replace the switch thats bugging out? does the brand of the switch matter or does it just have to meet the same spec so I wont notice I even replaced it?
Is aliexpress just fucking with me or why are there no good 3m headphone cables with dual 3.5mm connection (fiio / hifiman etc)Everything is either way too short or some $100+ audiophile scam.Who the fuck buys 130cm cables for bigass open-back planars?
>>107221607The Amazfit Active 2 looks pretty good, I was thinking about upgrading to that from my Amazfit GTR4 which I really like but is starting to show it's age. Annoyingly Amazfit watches don't really work with Gadgetbridge (a free open source companion app) but I've never really had a problem with the official app.
>>107222547You could get a 8bitdo micro or zero2 with the clip if you want to keep using your phone? I like my Miyoo Mini, but if this clip existed when I bought it I probably would have got one instead.
>>107223425Just buy the 130cm cable and connect it to a 2m 3.5mm male to female?As for who buys 130cm cables, anyone with a fucking DAC/amp on their desk.
>>107223388aren't they hot swappable? you just pluck the switch out and put a new one in with no soldering neededman you people are crazy sometimes. chill with the soldering iron lmao
>>107223470I have amp on my desk, it's over 2m away from my head when I recline and lean back.I don't want to use extenders, I want single cable.
>>107223475idk man i never swapped switches out of a keyboard just wanted to make sure :))
>>107223467Can you link the clip? Can't find it on Ali
>>107223491Just learn to make your own cables, then. Buy a chink special of the right length with the wrong ends, and just solder on some new plugs.https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005854243389.html is the one I've been using for a couple of years with no issues.
>>107223511there's a regular key puller that looks like a peg with a ring on top. the switch puller is like a mini metal pair of tongscherry and gateron switches off ali should be compatible. if you can find the keyboard box you may find a spare switch inside of it
>>107218072>>107217581They either cheap out on battery quality OR amperage - they may be using low current high capacity cells for something like a flashlight or a tablet rather than a high current, low capacity ones mewnt to be used for stuff like power tools and vehicles. Or they cheap out on the BMS. Or most likely, on everything all at once.
>>107223552yeah keychron keyboards include a cap and switch puller but the c3 pro isnt hot swappable
>>107223522Huh, it's up for sale on their website I think, but I can't really find it anywhere else.

>>107220454I agree with this anon. That mic is horrible and definitely overhyped.
First time looking to try aliexpress for some non-tech stuff and tips i heard not to get scammed was sellers with a high rating and thousands of feedback/reviews but looking for glass cabinets i haven't found any seller even close to having those metrics. Is this normal with how many sellers there are and is there a way to narrow down the more established sellers?
>>107224785depends on what exactly you are looking for. if its an expensive cabinet there wont be many buys, so read everything you can.- look for reviews with images- check all the seller images and specs carefully, often the thumbnail image is not representative of what you will get.
>>107216973i invested in a good hair clipper
>>107224142>>107216925Speaking of ratchet wrenches anyone found any chinkese ones with 120 to 180 teeth? All I could find are those 90T and below ones, there are some supposedly 100T ones but they don't seem to be that well made.
>>107216925This trustworthy? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009984276164.htmlThere was another listing with pictures before but it went down. Other is too expensive. Popped up during 11.11

Any worthwhile chink midi keyboards?
>>107220124it doesn't matter how many orders you do, they combine them cause they are all going to the same consolidation warehouse.it only doesn't combine if there's significant shipping difference.
>>107223388shouldn't be too hard to desolder since its a fairly new device.you'll want something to help with desoldering though (solder sucker, soldering braid, etc.) You'll never get it out otherwise.

I need someone who's good with smart home / home assistant shitSo I have an apartment, and it came with this intercom. It's "smart", in a sense that I can connect to it through SIP, I have it on my phone as well, the app is garbage tho. Its POE. I'm just wondering if its possible to replace this with a POE tablet that would serve intercom purpose AND let me build all kinds of home assistant dashboards as well? Or would the POE/USB tablet have to find some other place?The app I use for this is complete garbage - neither me nor other reviewers can get it to work now, and I think devs gave up on it (VDP Connect - it connect through POE, video feed sometimes works, calls never get directed to it). So if that's my only choice, I'm screwed, right?

Why are the most posters from from chinese sites canvas? The only ones I can find printed on paper have a piss yellow filter.
>>107225680I'm happy with my $20 Kiwi Ears Cadenza. Better than some $50+ IEMs I own.Also it sounds better than headphones because the sound is directly inside your ears. And sound isolation is much, much better. You don't need ANC crap.But yeah, downside is that some people hate the feeling, like what that other person said.
>>107223467Great idea. I have no idea how to find shops on ali. Will I even get a better price than if I just buy on their amazon store?
>>107224043be careful; it looks squish, but it is semihard hollow plastic.

Any good walking pads? I can't buy a treadmill, too big for my room and none of my family members want one so I have to leave it in my room.Usually I would just go outside and walk, but winter comes around and I can't do it. Or when there's a storm outside. I just want to move a couple hours a day.I'm worried my fat ass would break these flimsy walking pads in a month.
>>107228170Just buy one from a local vendor that accepts returns. Shipping and tariffs won't do you any favours. t. recently bought one merac t21 or whatever for physical therapy after a motorbike accident. I don't expect it to last too long before it either craps out or goes on craigslist following recovery, but in the meantime it's worked well. Haven't tested it at normal people walking speeds though. It works well at the slow inconsistent shuffle that I can currently manage. Keep in mind that most of these are meant for women. they're narrow, so if you're duck footed or have a wide stance I don't think you should buy without trying.
Uh…, ok?Why the fuck was that even in my recommendations?

>>107228953My original SC was falling apart, I finally decided to stop waiting for a SC2 and ordered a Gulikit last month and now they announce this shit, I'm fucking pissed.
>>107228860What's the best way to buy 8bitdo online? Their amazon store or from Ali? Do they have a store on Ali?
>>107228860thanks anon
The store from which I ordered a $17 air sensor no longer exists. I believe I have been scammed. That's what I get for yolo'ing a $34 dollar sensor for so cheap.
>>107229029Pretty sure they have an Ali store, but I've never specifically aimed to buy from the official stores for any third party controller since other sellers usually had what I wanted for less. Most third parties I'd buy from Ali unless you're expecting to return it. 8Bitdo and Gulikit are often cheaper for me on Amazon.
>>107227457it literally has an image of them squishing it lel>>107227536hello dear please understand i am taking image from store listing
>>107229357You can deform it, but it isn't "squishy". It won't pop back to its original shape right away, it's a semihard hollow plastic.
>>107229523when i picked it on bundle page it had a 4.9 for reviews and now when i look at it in order history it has 4.5 and a bunch saying its not the same as the picture, i dont understand how bundleslop works, its like they just invent reviews that arent there
>>107223865I have some heavy cotton. It's alright.
>>107218560I bought a Corne v4 from Chang, with some Gateron switches and YMDK keycaps.All pretty good. No complaints about any of the parts and it worked out a lot cheaper than getting a Western printed one.
>>107227448>Will I even get a better price than if I just buy on their amazon store?Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Depends on both the seller and the item. Just check.Use the search by image feature too once you've found one listing to see if it's available cheaper.
>>107227457There are squishy ones and hard ones available.
>>107227354I think because it's easier for them to send them to you without them getting all crinkled and ruined.Also, you could just have a local printshop print one on paper for you.

so what's gonna happen to EU now?how much more expensive will shit get?
shiny rock arrived, it's very sparkly. No idea what to use it for, but it's definitely the hardest thing I own.it came with gold glitter papers lol. no idea why they bothered for $12

Any recommendations for portable screens? I have a couple computers at home but only one screen and it's starting to get annoying that whenever a server shits itself I have to move it
>>107230703I heard ARZOPA has some decent ones.
>>107229029Yeah they have an official Ali store, I've bought a couple of things off there. They do good coin discounts. But always check between it and Amazon.
>>107225680>chu2 don't worry anon they'll clog and oxidize within a month and sound like shit so you don't have to worry about IEMs being anything more than a meme soon enough. shouldve bought the cadenzas haha>t. own like 3 pairs (buying a new Chu2 is cheaper than a set of filters lmao)
>>107217972dunno why it wouldn't work, but the seller here is full of shit. JLCPCB will make your design in transparent flex, looks like it costs about $5/board. They'll also make your board with color silkscreen if you want. The seller is making a healthy profit.>>107219567it's missing the 2x 5.1kΩ resistors -> instant ewaste>>107230659here's what it looks like with a Nichia 519A (90CRI, 5000K) on a grey card. No color tint that I can tell in-person either.
>>107230783Give me the link to the shiny rockMight buy one myself for the novelty
>>107230716seems more aimed at actual use, they're all high res or high refresh or hdr, i just need some cheap garbage i can plug into servers. tv resolutions up to 1080p are a pro, but not necessarywhat about ZSUS? they seem to have an acceptable 1080p one at 15.6", which is around 144 ppi, mostly legible
>>107230783Won't the resistors be on the board itself already? All this is doing is replacing the microusb with a usb-c, even using the same pinout.
>>107230629>8ct>$12link plsAll I find are much more expensive than that.
>>107230799>>107230854$21 sorry, I didn't realize $10 of that price was refund credit: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805304154843.html "8.0ct-13mm-GRA">>1072308455.1kΩ resistors are not required for microusb, but they are required for USB-C.
>>107230783Damn, is the clarity as shitty as it seems in that pic? The crystal has a ton of inclusion defects?
>>107230902>12ct cheaper than 9cthuh?Also, does it specify what sort of cut other than "diamond cut"?
what's going on here? never seen this happen. will the order go through?
>>107231030order quick before chang changes his mind
>>107231030>>107231056Never mind it was because I canceled an order and Ali instead of refunding me properly gave me the $60 in "bonus" money. Kinda bullshit but I was planning to spend around that in chink shit anyways
>>107230959idk but I'm pretty sure you're looking at my dead skin. I can't see any issues that aren't just dirt on the surface>>107230986does this help? sorry I threw away all the papers that came with it

>>107230959>>107231130how's this? cleaned it with something other than my shirt and took a picture with a real camera. a little low res because unfortunately I do not have a macro lens.
>>107231212I guess these dots are refracted reflections from the material under the gem? Can you take a pic of it on a smooth black surface in high zoom/light like this >>107230783 picture again?
went on temu today to look at chastity cages and every single listing has been nukedis there a new account setting for adult listings or did they remove everything?i also tried searching for huge dildos and that shows nothing as well
>>107231311Chang is telling you to have sex
>>107231255
Sorry for stupid questions I was checking the order info for 2 large display cabinets and the shipping cost was pretty expensive, so much so I would probably be better off buying local. Still getting used to the chinese retailers and how it all works and assumed shipping was fairly cheap.
>>107230902seems easy enough.
>>107231311>in akihabara>go to M's Pop Life sex shop with gf>she buys a chastity cage for me, gets large size (the largest they sell)>can't fit my dick in itNice.
>>107231339If it's not too troublesome, could you take that up close picture again without the black shit under it? Just a smooth surface that absorbs and reflects light evenly across the whole surface. It's hard to see the crystal quality with that shit under it.
>>107223556>>107217581Sounds like fearmongering.But okay, if my appartment burns down, you were right.But if nothing happens, then I made a good deal and you were paranoid.Let's see how things develop.
>>107229090Which store was it?
>>107230629>shiny rock arrived, it's very sparkly. No idea what to use it forThat would be a cool gift for someone if encased in clear resin.
>>107231459Nah, the whole point of a shiny rock is so you can shine a light on it directly to see the sparkliesResin would block all that
>>107231464the resin will have a different refractive index than the crystal. it would still be visible in the resin and still make sparklies.
>>107231406it is easy enough, but the board in >>107219567 only has 5 pins, while 6 are required: VCC, GND, CC1, CC2, D+, D-The 5-pin type c connectors should not exist and are not allowed by the spec, but they do.>>107231433sure, but IDK what you're looking for and I'm not equipped for this type of photography>>107231459I was thinking more like putting it on a crown? IDK
>>107231537Unless the resin has >99% light transmittance, I don't want it
>>107223219Pull the skin taut and work carefully, or better yet don't buy a stainless steel one, the plastic with ceramic coated ones won't fuck your shit up.
>>107231556Doesn't look so bad. It doesn't look like there are flecks or bubbles or anything inside the crystal when you look close and move the crystal?
>>107230742kek my exact thoughts about those pieces of shit
really makes you think
>>107231758There are brands with more resilient IEMs. Moondrop is notorious for the good looking box/design but horrendous durability. If you go to /iemg/ they'll bombard you with $5 KZ that will outlast any Moondrop.
>>107231030what kind of dollarydoos uses 1000ths of a cent?
>>107231850other countries use . as thousand separator so that's 20500 third world coins not 20.it exchanges to 20~ burger dollars
>>107231842KZs are trash lmao. My first pair lasted like 3 months and the second one (which was 3 times the price) lasted 2. Did also have the og moon drops and some cca cra, which also lasted just a few months (although the CCAs are still working, but the filter is fucked). The only iem that I have that hasn't broken yet are my salnotes zero which I've been running for 2 years.
How likely are Amazon-sourced SDXC cards to be fake if they're for lesser-but-still-reputable brands like Sabrent?Not exactly chinkshit but still potentially chinkshit-scam tier. I just assume major brands like Sandisk and Samsung are more likely targets to be polluted with counterfeits

What's the catch with these nendoroids on aliexpress?Good reproduction or actual straight-from-factory nendos minus packaging?https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006815558767.html
>>107232271Chinese resellers. Buying them in China is much cheaper than buying them in the west. Sometimes they also buy in bulk to save shipping costs. Then they sell them a bit more for a profit.
>>107232271Most are repos. I've bought like 3 in the past and they all have issues relating to joints. Maybe they are better now, as that was 5 years ago.
>>107231960still rocking my kz as10's from years ago. needs tuning on your side and it doesn't come with grills. dealbreaker for me if i had any sense of standards for my IEMs back then
Me and my fucking hyper-niche interests.Fucking hell that's expensive for a Tshirt.
>>107230783>>107230902But it does have two resistors
Woooo
>>107231966As long as you're buying direct from Amazon you should be fine. I'd always go for the brand name anyway, SDs are so cheap these days.
>>107231384shipping is cheap or free for small stuff, but for big/heavy things the cost increases exponentially, so it's seldom a good idea to buy such things directly from China
>>107232975i bought a folding table once on ali and they literally just had it delivered out from the nearby walmart.it somehow costed less than me actually going to the store to buy it in person. that one was a real head scratcher to me.
>>107231384>assumed shipping was fairly cheap.Yes. But no.I hear there's some subsidisation to some postage. A lot of these smaller things get consolidated together, downstream. So by waiting a day for another five dozen packages to fill that box they can get some bulk on. But generally, it's a long distance. Then it leaves their country. Doesn't tend to be 'cheap'. Tho I encourage you to investigate what your local postal service would charge for simialr.For larger things like them cabinets, there's not much in the way of cramming other things into otherwise wasted space to drive down costs. Airfrieght tends to go by weight, and anything 'cabinet' worth getting should be heavy, ie: not cheap to fly.Shipping containers... Bit of a waste for one cabinet. But if you *fill* a shipping container with cabinets then the cost of shipping it, per unit, might begin to approach something palletable. Pun intended.
>>107233046maybe they made a deal that was like "we'll give you this shit that you can sell with a big markup, but we'll give you a discount if you also act as our local warehouse for the stuff and we'll sell it online at a cheaper price"90% of walmart's customers don't even know what aliexpress is so this was probably a good deal for both parties
>>107233078>/csg/ starts a furniture store
Not really csg, but I bought some beefy power cables. The "generic" ones are typically 0.75mm2.
>>107233313You say that, I assume mocking... But that might be viable.... Not so much furniture specific, more /csg/logistics ... Wouldn't even really need much in the way of 'investment', would be mostly negociating existing firms to consolidate /csg/ orders by loose destination to save on teh bulk and 'more local' firms to handle the 'last mile'.... Could probably be easily automated...
>>107233350How regular you dumpin' 4.6kW down them cables?
>>107232271where do you think most of this shit comes from, anon?
>just won a $5 coupon from coins pinball gameIs it time to buy a large shiny rock?
rocks are so hot right now
>>107233130yeah that's what i assumed.just made me laugh that it still had the walmart store brand sticker on it and they just hired someone on one of those delivery service apps to drop it off at my door.the weirder part is that it didn't get marked as delivered for 3 days even though it came next day.
>>107233596yeah ordering an item from Aliexpress expecting it to be sent on a long trip from bumfuck nowhere, China, and receiving it from the local Walmart instead is pretty wild
after playing around with my HY300 i've changed my opinion on it. see, i considered it to be a very subpar projector but in actuality it's a media device that's also a projector.i sideloaded smarttube and xtra on it to watch ad-free youtube and twitch. it's also got native netflix. it tanks 4k encoded vids like a boss.it supports bluetooth so earbuds+keyboard+mouse can be connected concurrently. it's so low power that it can probably run off a powerbank somehow. the image sucks as you'd expect from an LED projector at $25. at 4-5m the entire image is dark while projecting at 1m to the wall is pointless. there's also the edges being blurry and the touchstone edge straightening is a meme. still though, $25 for pretty much a wifi tablet.
>>107233350I bought some 2mm cables for a 6A three phase industrial motor I use for racing games, and that shit is way too bulky.
>>107233766Maybe project to your ceiling and watch stuff laying down
>>107233808the keystone (not touchstone) for ceiling viewing is super hard to get working. where you place the projector is really important.
Then why are you still selling it, you chink piece of shit. I'm not cancelling shit and expect a bad review from me.
genuinely annoyed temu stopped selling sex toysthey had a whole range of cone shaped buttplugs i was eyeing off along with multiple different chastity cages
>>107233962come home gweilowe'll even write what's inside the package for you on the label
>>107233984i have $150 of credit for temu, now i have to spend it on normalcattle things for my job and house
>>107233984the first time i bought an onahole on ali they delivered it just raw in a black plastic bag, didn't even have a box around it or anything so anyone touching it could tell what it was. probably not an issue these days though since you can just buy a few normal items and it'll blend into the combined item sack they send out.
>>107234024one package i got they put the item description as penis cagedidnt buy from them again
>>107234037kek
>>107233903Notice that they didn't put a question mark at the end in Chinese. Shit, they're not even being as polite as the translation implies. They're basically telling you to fuck off!
Any recommendations for speakers for the TV? I think my dad already has an AV receiver or whatever the fuck they're called that can connect to the speakers from the TV.
Finally got to gimping together some review!>DicePrinting quality is meh, but apart from that picture, it's all good enough. Like seriously, who is even on top in that position? also, seems to roll quite random.>not-lego dinosaursneat. The kids will love it as stocking stuffers. Very strong clamping force though.>nipple not-piercingsvery neat. Kinda looks like the real deal and very adjustable. I like the versioin with tassles.Also, it was much cheaper on choice sale, than it now is with 1111. And the dice got culled in the great european prudery wave.
>>107234198Wait which picture on the dice is confusing to you?
>>107234198>dice...seems to roll quite random.that's a good thing, isn't it?
>>107234190Get an used hi-fi system locally or go with a soundbar with ARC support.
>>107234295>Get an used hi-fi system locallyI live in the middle of nowhere third world country, so I'll go with the second option. Thanks.
>>107231556The resistors are on the back of the pcb.The reason this thing has 5 pins is it's meant to be soldered onto the pads where there previously was a micro usb. the jacket is even non-standard size for packaging. I won't be replacing the connector on things that require data, just power. Maybe an old controller too but I need to figure out a solution to most firmly mount the thing.
>>107232151how's the monitor?I've been thinking about one of those portable ones but I can never really justify what is effectively a tablet without the tablety bits.
>>107234205The one on top. I can’t figure out which person is supposed to be the male and who is supposed to be the female. But now that I think of it, it’s 2025, so that’s kinda to be expected. >>107234244Yes. But I figured it was worth pointing out. I don’t know if it’s pro-tier certified random, but for the intended purpose it seems random enough.
Got the scooter not>>107231444Everything is in ordnung so far.Lifting a 65 Kg scooter out of its box while you're alone is a big bitch though.But this method worked. I'm going to do some range tests this week, to a town that's 25km away, let's see if it has enough juice for a return trip.
>>107234764the one without hair (on top) is the male and the one with long hair and tits (bottom) is the female, looks very straightforward to me
>>10723481465kg of high capacity cells of dubious quality would fucking terrify me, I hope you've got a shed or garage to keep that thing in.
>>107234972I'm not worried at all. China is the mainproducer of the majority of all battery in the world.
>>107235024Yes, and all the duds that didn't pass inspection probably went right into your scooter, with 40% off probably because they've burned down a few houses in China and they had to take them off the market.
>>107234691It's fine, the only problem I see is noticeable input lag when scrolling. Not idea about color accuracy, looks good enough to me.Here's the model but there's probably better listings, the box and manuals have no branding on them anywhere.https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3256807191577231.html>I can never really justify what is effectively a tablet without the tablety bitsA similar size tablet would cost a lot more and I don't care for the tablety bits, and I didn't find a simple non-proprietary solution to use a tablet as a second monitor.
>>107235040We will see about that, won't we? I'm going to come back here every week just to laugh at you.
>>107234972>65kg of high capacity cellsBy the way, it's not that much battery.The hub wheels are actually heavy mofos. 6000 wattt magnet motors is heavy as fuck, minimum 10 kg each.The iron box and steering are chunky as fuck too.The battery itself can't be more than 15kg.

Got the motorbike pants and theyre a pretty good fit, but the top of the pants goes up past my bellybuttonIdk if chang thinks all westerners are 190cm or if that's the way pants are in china, I cant wear it lower or else the knee protection will be under the knee which defeats the whole point
>>107240292You might have weird proportions (I do, when I get a suit I always have to tailor it because my arms are too short).Past the bellybutton is a bit extreme, but some specific cuts for pants sit higher on the hips intentionally. No idea if that includes motorcycle gear or not.
