  1. Great news! Glad you found a solution which might be helpful for more people.
  2. Improbable. The truly important nerves are pretty far away. Just a sensitive brach lays near, and taking the normal precautions, would be hardly involved in the healing fracture callus.
  3. Here it isn't the most common method for closed, not much displaced fractures either. With "standard procedure" I meant that it's an easy intervention for any qualified traumatologist. Even myself not being one of them would do it The good part is that your recovery will be much faster and functional results, probably better. The pseudarthrosis risk is much reduced. The only higher risk is that of infection, but still it is an acceptable one considering all the expectable benefits of the intervention. Were I in your situation, I'd rather be operated too.
  4. Not bad, pretty standard procedure which hopefully will have an excellent outcome, with way less hassle and quicker recovery than the old fashioned 8 shape bandage. Best wishes!
  5. Sorry Justin, that sucks Keep us posted on what treatment they're giving you.
  6. That's why Apple doesn't give a fuck of what customers want, yet are successful.
  7. Great, I knew I wasn't the only one not losing hearing accuracy on the high frequencies hahaha Well, horses for courses, as always, it's a matter of personal preference.
  8. Better feartures than fartures.
  9. Now seriously, some friends came with a T1 to my place. We tried it on low impedance amps like the Beta and the Gilmore Reference (GS-X like, Justin would know better) on highish impedance ones like the Luxman P1 and the Rudi RX-100. With none sounded good, it paled compared to the HD800, HD600 even K-701, especially on the treble resolution and extension. Also kind of "generic" bass, tending to be just one note. Voices were just average, far from a believable sound with a proper timbre. The 880 is just OK, a bit too bright for my taste, but probably acceptable for the money. 770 and 990... well, too far away from neutral to consider them half seriously. DT-48 definitely a POS not adequate to listen to music. Good to make clinical pure tone audiometries. I haven't listened to other models, maybe it's true the models Tyll defended are OK, but for a company which so consistently makes headphones far from my liking, frankly, not worth the benefit of the doubt. I still wonder if the T1 or 880 are worth the effort they require to sound good. IMO the HD600 can do a better job without all that hassle. Probably the HD800, with their fame of being tough boys, are easier to get right than the T1.
  10. In. If I won, we'd talk about shipping
  11. Nothing like showing oneself opinionated to cheer up the conversation
  12. It's possible, Birgir. I haven't listened to those. The rest of them
  13. Thank you very much, Dusty. It lead me to Valery June's which is what I'm watching/listening now.
  14. That's a wonderful bike, Nate. I wish you enjoy it immensely.
  15. on the 600 love Beyers suck. Period. All of them. Period. From the once vintage holy grail DT-48 to the superuberduper T1, one of the biggest overpriced POS I've had the dubious pleasure of listening. However I can understand why some people likes them. Horses for courses.

    Cute!!!
  17. So sorry, Brent. Scary issue, glad the kids and you are fine. Big hugs, mate.
  18. I'm sorry, Jacob. What a POS of a neighbor you got there
  19. RIP Lou. Really sad news. Interesting read at Rolling Stone, mostly for the way the own Lou described his recorded works.
  20. yep, the large ones I guess, but they are more expensive than the Pearl.
  21. It could work, but I'd try the aluminum foil thing first, that would hardly work if the foil fails. Conceptually I like the Pearl Tube Coolers better.
  22. Damn, you're all sick
  23. I know, that's how it's supposed to work best, but if it already works without grounding, why making things more complicated?
