Some ISPs and their routers don't allow for the DNS settings to be changed, unfortunately. Still can be worked around, but sometimes the easiest solution is to just edit the DNS settings directly.
I've tried Shure (and other) earphones like this before, but could never stand the rustling of cable noise. Does that bother you at all, or do you have any recommendations for stopping it? I've tried shirt clips and cable loops, but nothing ever worked. For now, I use either over-ear noise canceling headphones or just AirPods.
I like the Shure's quite a bit and have used them professionally as a musician. I've experienced similar issues
Part of the issue is solved by running them over the backs of the ears so they exit down your neck. Additionally, mine have a cord pair keeper, and when I push that closer to the ends, that helps.
Another thing that's helped has been to get picker about which inserts I use. My ear canals aren't the same size (which I thought was strange, but whatever).
As others have said, over the ear wear helps a lot. Using a shirt clip to attach them to your shirt also helps. My etymotic IEMs came with such a clip.
Using both of those techniques makes the microphonics go from intolerable to barely noticable for me which is great because I wear them for 4-8 hours a day.
if i understand correctly, the noise is caused by physical vibrations (as opposed to electrical waves) propagating up the cables. i think it's basically insoluble for earbuds/iems.
Pretty close to how most people source. You can just leave out the ^ it's just an inline [1], [2] etc.
There are now hard and fast rules though, it's just common practice.
I think this is essentially people copying the ACM reference style.
I think most versions of iOS have had a built-in slideshow function in the Photos application. Try loading up some photos onto the iPad, add to an album, and see if there's a slideshow option somewhere.
That's probably the case with all HR monitors, no? If it's not securely in place, any HR monitor will have the same problem. I bought a knock-off velcro wrist strap for my watch and it keeps it in place. I have mixed success with traditional watch straps as my wrist size always seems to be in-between notches.
I imagine if I wore my chest strap monitor I'd have better results as long as I put some kind of jelly on the electrodes to make up for the lack of sweat through the night.
Most likely that the absence of movement data is perceived as sitting/standing. Since the stand goal requires standing and moving for at least one minute (the purpose of the stand goal is more to get you moving for at least a minute rather than just stand up - just standing up doesn't count), if you haven't moved for a while (50 minutes in an hour) then it gives you a nudge to do so.
> Even if you stand all day, you still need to move around.
The purpose of the standing goal isn't just to be stood up, it's to stretch your legs and get you away from a desk (it doubles as a good reminder to take a break from your computer screen).
US seems to just have a more broad term for goods delivered that you didn't order and refers to it as "unordered merchandise"[1]. You're pretty much free to keep it, it seems.
The UK is more specific for what is classified as "unsolicited" and what is considered goods delivered to someone else by mistake[2]. Companies have a right to get their product back if it's the latter. Since the author did order a switch, a duplicate delivery would very likely be considered a mistake. If the author never ordered a Switch (and never paid for it) in the first place, they'd definitely be able to keep it.
Regardless, if this is the way Nintendo asked for the second Switch back, they were completely out of line.
If the author of this post had spent a few minutes looking into what functionality the Watch had before purchasing it, he could've had a much different experience. This reads like the complaints of someone who didn't quite know what they were buying.
>I bought the Apple Watch yesterday, and yesterday is the keyword. How come I didn’t run yesterday? Thanks for asking, in fact I did run, but yesterday I couldn’t stream music because I had no apps.
The exact feature is described as "Stream 40 million songs with Apple Music right from your wrist". It's also clearly described on Apple's home page as "Coming Soon". Of course there are no streaming music apps like Spotify or Soundcloud yet. Apple's own music platform isn't even ready. I don't agree with Apple's approach of releasing a watch and announcing software or features that aren't readily available at launch, but I'm not going to then say "wait where is music streaming?" if I buy one before the feature is released.
What he could've done, given some patience, was sync a playlist of songs to the watch. It's had that functionality since day one.
>In summary, $432.92 for the Apple Watch Series 3 GPS + Cellular, $99 for the Apple Developer Program, $10/mo for Verizon, and $9.99/mo for Apple Music. I feel it’s a bit too much for just streaming music while I run, I’m happy to just go with a non-cellular watch and some music pre-downloaded.
The author is being misleading. The developer program isn't required, this is the price the author paid for being impatient. The rest of the costs are required for music, but cellular functionality != music streaming. It has other uses.
>I have to unlock the door, climb like 20 steps — it’s plenty of time to connect to the wifi. Then I have to take off my headphones before my sweaty t-shirt, so it would be great to just switch the current song to the living room airplay system, so that there’d be no interruption. I couldn’t do it, and don’t understand why switching between bluetooth and wifi shouldn’t just work
Wearable tech is hard. I'm sure a device with a bigger battery and more powerful hardware could do this, but it's a small piece of wearable tech on your wrist. Give it time. (I can see why this wouldn't be a feature right now since AirPlay is direct streaming and it'd likely mean users burn through their battery as they stream music to their speakers from their watch).
>On the bright side, earlier today I went grocery shopping, turned my iPhone in airplane mode, and paid with just the watch. For spending more money, the Apple Watch works great.
Apple Pay is great on the watch. It also doesn't need cellular data, you can use Apple Pay without an iPhone present on any Apple Watch.[1]
I personally have a Series 1 that I use when I go for a run, I leave my iPhone at home. I have a playlist of music synced. I'm happy with my watch and don't have any need for GPS or cellular for the time being. Syncing a playlist of music works fine for me.
That's not true. Some of the best photos I've seen were not taken with an DSLR. You'll definitely get higher quality photos, but that doesn't mean they're more interesting. But I do agree that buying an entry DSLR with kit lens isn't as tempting to some when smartphones are as good as they are today.
Interesting was probably the wrong word. Put cameras in the hands of 1 billion+ people who carry them 90% of the time and you'll get many images that photojournalists just wouldn't historically have been there to capture. [ADDED: And some of those will be inherently interesting.] But to me, quality/composition/control help lead to [most of] the most memorable photos, especially those that aren't just capturing an inherently interesting moment, but mileage on that may differ.
Having lived in London for several years, I have a special hatred of black cab drivers. I have never had a single good experience using a black cab, and very few of my friends do either. Complaints range from refusing to take a fare (which would've been four miles but crossed the river - cabby flatly said "I'm not going south of the river this late, I won't get any fares to come back") to deliberately taking long routes (I took a cab from Covent Garden to Islington once, when we were about to cross the river I told the cabby I'm a Londoner, not a tourist, and if you cross the river then I'm getting out).
I really dislike Uber, but there's no question I'd rather use them in London than a black cab. This is one of those decisions that are likely to be fully justified, but will still suck for those who have come to rely on them.
