Remotes on 00s cassette players

People who have the 00s era WMs with the inline remote. Is there much difference in plugging straight to the remote or straight to the WM?

I don’t have the micro plug to 3.5 adapter to use my remote, but read online when you use the adapter it can bottle neck the audio and cause you to have less quality audio through your headphones.

Is this true? Is there noticeable difference for an average user? Or mostly just the ability to use the added control features?

Huel Black Edition - Coffee Carmel

So got my order from the website yesterday. I ordered it in the 18th so I was getting antsy and bought a 4 back of the RTD Chocolate flavor from Target before today.

The RTD Chocolate was solid and tasted good, but I didn’t feel quite “full” I know I felt like I ate something, but not that full feeling that would keep my cravings away.

Today I had Huel Black Edition - Coffee Carmel that I mixed last night with vanilla flavor almond milk… I will say the texture is significantly different, but not bad. Just thicker than the RTD. It’s been roughly 3 hours after and I’m still full. Maybe it’s the almond milk portion or something, but overall I will say the powder filled me up and tasted pretty darn good.

After having this flavor I ordered the Chocolate version of Huel Black Edition and hoping it’s just as good!

Love it so far!

Delivery timeline

Well I’ve always heard about people complaining about delivery timelines. First time ordering online via subscriptions, ordered black edition powder, hot and savory meals, greens powder, and RTD greens.

Ordered online on the 18th and I will admit… the communication wasn’t there, even with tracking numbers it showed shipping label printed and stated that way ALLL the way until today. It magically teleported from Indiana straight to Houston. With no updates or added information. Just “Shipping label created”. Then “Delivered”.

Sort of stressed trying to figure when things would be delivered and when I’d start my Huel journey, but overall it was delivered pretty quickly and showed up right.

Is this a good plan?

So I’m a firefighter and work 24 hours shifts 3-4 times a week. Eat like crap there because we’re busy. I want to potentially lose weight, but mostly improve my health by eliminating all the greasy fatty food we always make at the stations.

My plan is to start intermittent fasting 16:8 starting around 7am and ending at 3pm. I’m 5’11” and 185lbs or 84kgs.

I bought Daily Greens for my first drink to break the fast. Then I’d move to Coffee Carmel Shake mixed with vanilla almond milk to add calories for breakfast. Contemplating a one scoop shake of a different flavor in the middle of the fast with more almond milk. Then finishing off my fasting with Hot and Savory pasta with added tuna, chicken, or ground beef depending on flavor.

This will mostly be for my 3-4 days at the station a week, but when I’m home maybe trading the Hot and Savory meal with a meal I either make or go out to get with friends.

Does this sound too overboard with trying to use Huel only on those days? Has anyone tried intermittent fasting using Huel as their main source of calories? I’ve tried to watch as many YouTube videos as I could, but literally all are from 3-8 years ago so I’m not too sure if things have changed much or if flavors of foods have gotten better or worse, and all the added drinks and bars.

Reframing a lithograph

Haven’t ever owned something like this before. Made an impulse buy and bought a singed and numbered lithograph by Dali with an attached COA on the back of the frame backing. I don’t really like the frame, but was wondering if I reframe it, would it be extremely bad? I’ve looked them up and it’s not like it’s worth a million dollars or anything, but does it matter what type of frame and all you use?

What happened?

So came across these in a first year Nuc. They’ve been in place for around 3 month. Minimal hive openings. I have “Texas 5000” bees. They’re pretty healthy. Queen is laying, I see all stages of bees from egg all the way up to pupae, they have a healthy supply of honey, bee bread, qnd nectar. They’re also starting to build out.

But today’s inspection I came across these bees that looked very dark, almost like they’ve soaked in something. Some were alive, but barely crawling others were dead. I’d say maybe a total of around 20ish bees like this. It was only on one frame, the farthest edge frame that’s been one of their foundation frames they’ve had built since I got them. Bottom box. I have a reducer on the front.

I have hive beetle traps that have oil, but on the opposite side of the boxes and not anywhere near these dark bees.

Any ideas??

Outside of Houston, TX on the SW side.

Getting Signia 7IX

So I’m getting hearing aids and my audiologist ordered me Signia Pure Charge & Go 7IX Telecoil. I really went in wanting the Phonak Audeo Infinio Ultra Sphere, but my audiologist said these are very similar and just as good. Being sort of new and not all knowing I just agreed and went with their recommendations.

Are the Signia ones just as good or at least same tier? I’m worried I may have regrets when I get them that I didn’t go with my gut. Is there a huge gap between them?

I have profound high frequency loss due to some conductive issues with my eardrum if that matters.

VERA

Never used it before, but scheduled an appointment and it’s weeks out. I have an appointment at a regional VA hospital tomorrow unrelated. How likely is it to be able to walk in and request a C&P examiners opinion on a claim I’m trying to work on? I don’t know if it’s just a desk, long lines, or what. Are day of walk in’s frowned on and not a good idea?

So I was medically discharged and very young and uninformed. During the service I had some TBIs and concussions and I began to have seizures at the tail end which initiated the medical discharge.

My mom told me I had a febrile seizure when I was an infant due to a fever so I always “understood” it as I had a seizure. So when asked at my discharge if I had seizures I said yes not knowing it wasn’t actually epilepsy or seizures like I currently have.

Now I’m currently going through the process of trying to claim seizures, but the only thing they keep denying me for is that I previously had seizures prior to service.

How can I correct the information I gave close to 20 years ago? I feel like due to my lack of information about a condition at the time I gave answers I didn’t mean or gave wrong information. Is there something I can do to help the right information to be given? I have doctors who say and scans that all indicate my epilepsy is due to head injuries I incurred during service, but it all comes down to denial because condition existed prior to service.
