I have a pair of relatively cheap yamaha studio monitor headphones that are actually pretty great! ($80) Most headphones will also sound much better when driven properly with an external DAC, especially the higher end ones.

I plan on going to the $200 range next as I'm not too satisfied with the bass of these things, It's definitely there, but it doesn't go too loud before it gets distorted on the lower ranges,

Was changing a flat with the kit in my car, the scissor jack it came with was so improperly rated for the load that the bolt bent and the whole thing fell apart, sending the rotor straight into some dirt. Luckily enough nothing got damaged, but it still took 30 minutes to get that poor thing off the ground with a real jack and bricks. It was such a low rider that we had to start from the back and creep forward.

Never using a scissor jack ever again, and I've heard enough horror stories from mechanics about not using a jack stand that I will exclusively be using them if the things off the ground for any amount of time.

+1 on that, had a chrysler from a dealership that only lasted a year before it totally shit the bed. I have a subaru forester now that I rebuilt the engine for, and it feels like it will last even after death.

This but for monitors, I bought the drawing tablet I have because I cannot stand color shifting and bad color rep. Same with my monitors, if the colors are so off that one is visibly more blue than the other I get so annoyed I dont use it.

Luckily enough laptops tend to have pretty color-accurate screens thanks to everyone trying to copy apple (i still miss removeable batteries)

Counterpoint, I got addicted to cheap shitty cookies and a 24 pack of the value version fudge stripes for $1.25 started a very horrible 2 month period of eating a pack of those daily

Not common in the US I believe, or at least I haven't heard or seen one of them.

You just gotta "guess" what's correct and then feel the water coming out

Feel this, I was lucky(?) enough to have a mechanic living at my house who basically told me to fix it myself, he guided me through of course but he emphasized how important it is doing these things on your own.

That guy cannot figure out how youtube works and he's only 45.

I'd say it all depends on how much you had to use something, while the hurdles in software may seem small to someone experienced. those who are first trekking through see it as a huge wall

I'm stuck in small town nebraska unfortunately, there's no bus service, the trains shut down decades ago, and the nearest airport is an hour drive away.

And most of the roads here are in disrepair, so much so that the sidewalks became lawns, you can still see the bricks of when they originally paved it 100 years ago. And forget about bike lanes, a couple of our towns are only accesible off the highway.

I would kill for a bus to take me from the town over and back, it would save an hour of driving each day and lots and lots of gas money
