The Cosmonaut's Komandirskie
Just obtained my latest Komandirskie, the same model worn by Cosmonaut Gennady Padalka during the Expedition 9 ISS mission.

For some reason, my mic hasn't been properly picking up audio. There are several options appearing in Pavucontrol and system settings for mic and output options, but none of them give a clear audio input. In one of pics above you can see that the option for "Ryzen HD Audio Controller Digital Microphone" is always maxed out and only outputs white noise to whatever program is using it. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling pavucontrol, along with reseating the physical connections for the camera/mic hub. Yes, the privacy switch for the microphone is allowing a connection.
Slightly modified using a Soviet-era diving bezel
My new VDB-1000, the first dot-matrix touchscreen watch from 1991.
Grand-dad of the Apple Watch itself.
Got this beauty while visiting Houston's La Galleria Swatch store.
my attempt to run VotV on my new Kubuntu Framework. It semi-worked.
Just got my new 13 with an AMD AI 350, 16gb ram, and 500gb ssd, and have been trying to install Ubuntu for an hour.
I have tried using a KUbuntu and Ubuntu installer, using Rufus to get the iso image on a 256gb usb, and turning off secureboot in the bios, but the installer keeps pausing at this loading screen. Any ideas on what the problem may be?
The chronograph reset button of my week-old 1963 detached without any tells. I dont have any in-depth info about how these watchis work, so I'm in the dark about what to do next. Is this fixable?
My first Chinese-designed watch on a soviet-era bundstrap. Very happy with the 1963's style!
Ordered a 6Э4-2 from Russia, got something (imo) way cooler. Seems to be an unissued 6Э4-1 from 2015 with all its accessories intact. Definitely not mad about the turnout!
Last photo is of my later-productiom 6Э4-1 for reference.
Recently discovered issue with minute hand after it stopped adjusting. I'm already planning on having the movement looked at because of other issues, but does anyone know why this may have happened?
Noticed that my Ratnik has an absence of cashback antimagnetic shielding (seen in 2nd image). Is there a good way of sourcing either original antimagnetic inserts or ones of comparable function?
