Over the last week or so I have noticed that I do not feel like eating even as dinner time approaches but I know I need some nutrients so I will make a dinner for myself. If I wanted to, I could probably go all day without eating without feeling any desire to eat.

So I would think that when I did finally eat I could only tolerate a small portion since I am not feeling any hunger, but once I start eating I feel after the first few bites some hunger builds and then I can go ahead and eat a normal portion.

Of course I am still eating much less due to basically just being on one meal a day but I was curious if this is normal, the fact that I don't feel any hunger but it builds a bit with the first bites and then I can eat the meal as if I was hungry before I started to eat.

I have had Astro A40's for 15 years now and they held up so well that I am considering A50's. Only reason is because the wired A40s are for desk use on my PC, and since the A50's will be for a console I want them wireless. However, every battery has a limited life span that can be just a couple years.

Anyway, I read some random posts about it and apparently for the gen 5's it is super easy to replace, there is a button to pop a cover off on the headset and then there is a battery you just disconnect and reconnect. However I can find no information as to how to do this. I can find older videos of people re-soldering the battery which I think is no longer the case. When I look up A50 replacement batteries, I see batteries with loose leads not an actual connector.

So whats the real situation? From what I can tell, it seems that the battery isn't so easy to replace.

Been hear a bunch of times but finally decided to finally ask what the deal is with the way they wrap their burritos.

They don’t wrap them like everywhere else, they are basically open on both ends. By the time I’m getting to more than half way thru the burrito, probably 1/4 of the filling has already landed on the plate.

I’ve watched them roll it too and they don’t roll it traditionally, they basically roll the burrito like it’s a taquito and then push the ends in a bit so they’re not actually doing anything but covering the ends, one some toppings push against this it just folds back open.

I’m not sure of the logic here. It doesn’t make for a good eating experience as it’s such a mess. If it’s to get more filling into the tortilla why not get bigger tortillas? Or am I just missing something entirely?

Like every other burrito you can eat while let’s say just walking down the street. At TBK, if you try and do that you’d only eat half your burrito at best as the other half will be on the ground or on you.

Want to move from a wired headset for my console to a wireless one because a wired one is getting annoying for the distance from the console to where I sit.

I currently have an Astro A40 with the mixamp, I do like the mixamp as I can control master volume as well as the mix of game audio to voice audio with the dial. There are situations I want to drown out voice chat or situations where I turn down game audio to listen to voice chat.

Although I think that is less possible on a wireless headset or might be more annoying since those controls will be on buttons on the actual headset, I am fine losing those features. Volume control on it though is pretty important however I imagine even the cheapest headsets have this.

I was looking into the Astro A50 5th gen since I already have Astro A40's and have no complaints, but for the $180 price range (will consider buying used or refurbished) should I be looking elsewhere? I also like the sleek look, I know that matters less but I dont want something bulky and also don't need something super high end.

Was driving down the highway today around 80mph and heard a loud smack in what might have been either the front driver quarter panel, wheel well, or driver door. There was nothing on the road I hit or nothing that I saw fly into the car. The thump was violent enough that I thought I legitimately might have body damage

My initial thought was that the tire blew and exploded in the wheel well and hit the door on its way out but that was not the case. I inspected around and saw no damage to body panels and nothing out of the ordinary in the wheel well. So basically two things could have happened, I missed something on the road I hit (which I am fairly sure I didn't, but who knows) but I wanted to post this asking if something mechanically on the car could have failed that I need to investigate.

So is there potentially something within the door of the car or near the wheel well which could make a loud thump like noise like this I should investigate?

I was reading thru the manual and didn't get any answer so not sure what it means. I have an X5 with the DAPP package and on highways it works as expected but I sometimes activate it when not on highways just for the adaptive cruise control and lane keep assist. Of course since I am not on a major highway I keep my hands on the wheel but even so there are times when the LED's on the steering wheel flash orange and I am not sure what it is trying to notify me to do.

I know when on a major highway, it will flash yellow when it gets into a situation where I don't have hand on the wheel and it wants me to put them on. Simple fix to take back control. But when not on the highway I am not sure what it wants me to do because I already have hands on the wheel and am closely monitoring its performance.

All that being said, when I see the orange lights flash I tend to ignore it and nothing happens the drive assist continues to function as normal so I am a bit confused about it.
