I have an idea for a goldmine wherein the alibaba/amazon item naming scheme is used in other contexts. Imagine a billboard for the NEW 2023 Hyundai Honda Kia Elantra Civic Car Truck SUV Vehicle Power Steering Blueooth 1.8l 2.4l 3.0l Very Fast Vehicle

Gotta throw in some misspellings and maybe something related to reproduction where it’s obviously some weird translation glitch but still funny.

There. Now it looks like the titles I usually see.

Update about the Etymotic ER-4 cable I ordered a while ago: I just received this one from Lunashop's aliexpress store (same price as their page, but less headaches with payment, VAT, etc). https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003059513530.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.0.0.5a8f180284M5gp

Pretty expensive but feels good. Still a bit microphonic but not as bad as the original, so rubbing against the shirt is no longer deafening. The other issue I had with the OEM one is that it got very stiff when cold (heh) but it's difficult to tell now as it's very hot. I might try putting it in the fridge to test :)

Good option if anyone needs replacement cables for weird headphones IMO.

Update on my taobao adventure. Everything is in the warehouse except the Onitsuka Tiger reps which were the whole reason I went through this effort :negative:

First seller didn't ship after 10 days and now neither has a different seller in I think 5 days. Maybe they're just out of stock everywhere but there was no indication of that.



While I was waiting for that I also decided to get the Oakley Whisker clones too.





I think I'll give it a few more days and then just have this shipped regardless.
Also seems lime my 3.6kg parcel of taobao... replica goods cleared customs. Just had to pay about $15 of VAT (even though the CSSBuy collected it already, but will get a refund). Still, until it's physically out of there, fingers crossed.

Love to wear socks to the water park

Just had a flashback to working at a waterpark and having management explain to us how pedophiles love waterparks because they have a ton of plausible deniability for sitting around looking at little kids in swimsuits. Easiest way to spot them is to look for people wearing socks/shoes because most people will at least put on sandals even if they don't plan to swim.

I got lucky and the only people I ever saw wearing shoes were teenagers that jumped the fence without a plan for what to do once they were inside.

Also, to anyone reading this, don't go harassing people wearing shoes to the pool. Sometimes people are just there for their grandkid's birthday party or something.

My wife has a bunch of these that she uses on her face before bed and things. Occasionally the break (like the balls fall off, and it seems impossible to reattach them) and it turns out they're also extremely expensive! I should introduce her to Aliexpress.

What do you all say to Ali geiger counters? I don’t have an immediate need of one but would like one to mess with, maybe for when I’m packing my end-of-the-world bag.

The top orders have some pretty damning reviews indicating they may not actually detect anything. There’s more expensive ones but less reviews and there’s a few diy kit style ones based on arduino that might be ok.

This one is kit but seems to be pre-assembled. Price isn’t bad and limited reviews don’t seem to indicate total crap. Kind of tempted by it.

I don’t know about aliexpress, but the ones sold in hardware stores have weight ratings on them. I used to have one that held hanging storage units for my clothes and it could take a lot of weight: I had maybe 10kg of clothing hanging on mine plus my cat used to love climbing and jumping all over it.
