I searched high & low..

I really did not want the standard warm or cool Taj Mahal. I thought both colors were not suitable for my kitchen. Cristallo was too expensive. I finally found a quartzite that looks like marble. It’s out there if you look long enough. I’m actually not even sure how well this suits my kitchen either, but I’m happy to take the risk over Taj

Edit: this is not a dolomite. My fabricator himself told me it’s a dolomite and not to get it until he saw it in person. Hence, my happiness to find it because I prefer the dolomite look over the typical looking quartzite.

I’m posting this not to show off my stone, but I myself wasn’t aware this existed, more so just to let people shopping know. I do think it’s fairly rare unfortunately, but out there nonetheless

STRONG opinion on Mx6 vs AirPods Max 2 vs ch720n

Ironically, I somehow broke and lost my Mx6 on the same day. lol my issue with the mx6 is how they twist.. which is exactly how it broke. Sometimes I look in the mirror at the gym and they’re completely uneven and it looks very dumb and feels unstable because of it. More importantly, they are very uncomfortable. They do hurt your ears after sometime, for me at least. The sound is great. I have no complaints

So given the two cons, I was ready to switch to Apple.. in comparison (and In general I’d say) the sound is TERRIBLE. I can’t believe this isn’t more of a subject in these threads. Have Apple users never used Sony? lol I put on music and noticed a difference immediately, but truthfully these maxs are so damn comfortable I was like it’s fine. I prefer the comfort

Then I continued to watch the wire and wow, how are these 500 dollar top of the line headphones. It sounds like there is a weird echo , and that it’s almost like you’re not wearing headphones, and seems like the sound is coming from your phone still. Tried to adjust this, I see no way? Sony is so crisp and sounds like true personalized headphones in comparison. It’s night and day. Not remotely close.

I had Sony ch720s for many many years I replaced just because they’re so old and beat up, and I’d say they are better than both these headphones. Much better sound than the max, and more comfortable than mx6.

I can’t return these pods because I’m overseas and left the country already. These are trash to me. Going to wait till the new Sonys come out and hopefully they fix these two cons

Am I making a mistake?

So I’m using cabinet city for my cabinets, and they had great pricing for pre fabricated quartz, however l, I felt they all looked fake.

I was much more comfortable with this quartz, however, the install is just as much as it would be for real stone. Truthfully, the quartz itself isn’t that much cheaper than quartzite/ porcelain either.

I’m going for quartz for more practicality ( I’m a messy guy) but it’s just a lot and I’m aware this style of quartz marble replica is already on its way out

I think I’d be more comfortable pulling the trigger if I at least had a consensus that this one looks less fake than your generic pre fab quartz . Appreciate your feedback

Thailand weather(timing over next month)

In the next 3-4 weeks i plan on spending about 12 days in both Vietnam/ Thailand.

I have not picked the order

Although I hear dolphin is not directly hitting Thailand, that there are some things resulting in a lot of rain.

Would I be better off visiting in 2 weeks from now and rolling the dice to hope it clears up? Vietnam seems to be less effected right now

Planning to fly into Bangkok and then go where the weather is better. I’m flexible

Diagnosed with heart condition, supposed to avoid intramuscular pressure/ Valsalva Maneuver

I’ve been doing more research on this and I see that even if you do low weights, if you do it till failure there’s no way to avoid intramuscular pressure/ Valsalva Maneuver. I don’t feel like that’s true though, does anyone have any insight on this?

If you hit the gym and do low weights / high reps.. but don’t go till failure, is it even possible to get a more toned body or is it almost like you’re not even working out?

Weight lifting with HCM

I did ask my specialist but didn’t really understand and didn’t want to keep asking(I kept trying to understand more)

Why is it bad? Is it just the breathing? If you could lift without clenching/ holding breathe etc is it fine?

She said running and lifting under 20 lbs was fine etc

I’m just trying to understand the mechanics of why it’s bad

Relocation fee

I have called rent control board, and they are giving me non answers.

I’m debating renting, only for a year, and being very upfront about it.

I am aware even with me being upfront, if they still choose too, they can claim relocation fee. I am aware of the 27,500 minimum.

My question is directly about the “minimum.” I don’t understand this process and the board isn’t clarifying.

From my understanding on Google, if it’s an owner occupying the unit, they can not refuse, correct? And the amount is not really a “minimum” but that is the exact amount it will be?

You can lease for a few months in Santa Monica if it’s furnished right? There would be no relocation for that I assume. Maybe that is the better option .

Zio report/ possible false reports?

Are there false reports? 26 min and 245? This does not sound right.

And is anyone familiar with zio reports? I have to wait to talk to my doctor but I’m just curious on if there’s anything here that might show I’m at risk and possibly going to be recommended surgery

I found my hcm by mistake and honestly don’t really have any symptoms

Patient had a min HR of 26 bpm, max HR of 245 bpm, and avg HR of 64 bpm. Predominant underlying rhythm was Sinus Rhythm. First Degree AV Block was present. 2 Ventricular Tachycardia runs occurred, the run with the fastest interval lasting 5 beats with a max rate of 176 bpm, the longest lasting 8 beats with an avg rate of 126 bpm. 1 run of Supraventricular Tachycardia occurred lasting 4 beats with a max rate of 245 bpm (avg 221 bpm). Second Degree AV Block-Mobitz I (Wenckebach) was present. Isolated SVEs were rare (<1.0%), SVE Couplets were rare (<1.0%), and SVE Triplets were rare (<1.0%). Isolated VEs were rare (<1.0%, 5790), VE Couplets were rare (<1.0%, 78), and VE Triplets were rare (<1.0%, 5). Ventricular Trigeminy was present
