That's what I use in my soundbooth / office and I will plug ATH-M50s until the day I die. Great choice, internet friend.Jeza posted:Minimal. This isn't a knock against the headphones it's more of that 99% of audiophile stuff is stupid nonsense bullshit.

Those headphones are great, both for mixing my own music and listening to other peoples music. It's like hearing a new dimension!Coffee And Pie posted:Decided if I can't upgrade my computer I'll upgrade individual pieces, starting with the keyboard/mouse, then the chair, then the monitor, so I picked up one of these to see what kind of switches I want out of a mechanical keyboard: Update: I liked the Cherry blues the most, am I a monster?

My coworker said its OK and not to exchange it and I have had it ever since and am extremely happy to have the exact same peripherals at work and at home. Also, the click isn't that extreme. A former (ancient) coworker wanted to use his IBM keyboard and his direct reports were actually going to destroy them which I prevented because those things are valuable. But yeah using that in a shared office is a no go.

There were IBM beam spring keyboards that had a solenoid to give it that authentic deafening typewriter sound, maybe you should get one of those?

No pictures because everyone has seen one, but I bought an iPad 7 and an Apple Pencil, because I didn’t need to spend double that on the Pro and the Pencil 2. Mostly gonna be using it for GarageBand and doodling.

Yeah the Apple Pencil 1 and a non-pro iPad are majorly good drawing purchases for the price. I spent a long time with it before upgrading and it led to me drawing a lot more because I had everything I needed right there on a whim. Works really well too.

One of these, because I don't have enough coffee related things (I have to many coffee related things) Also a new 970 Pro 512GB. SMART is showing my current M.2 drive at 98% life remaining, and because last time I had an SSD show that number to me, it blew itself up before it hit 97%, so I'm choosing to err on the side of caution.

 ThermoPro TP19 Waterproof Digital Meat Thermometer for making sure my food is the correct temperature in my kitchen.  Remco 5" Mini Bench Scraper in orange for baking tasty stuff in my kitchen.  North American Rescue Combat Application Tourniquet for when things go wrong in my kitchen.

Thermometer is one of my best kitchen purchases ever. Cooking meatloaf and steak by intuition feels like the stone age now. I get perfect pork loin every single time now. In case anyone is wondering the #1 puchase is a gram scale so i can do lazy and precise measurements. https://www.amazon.com/Escali-P115C...87600731&sr=8-1 Mu Zeta has a new favorite as of 01:12 on Apr 23, 2020 |
