It is not uncommon to see people take carts all the way home

The problem I have with this naming scheme as a consumer is it is hard to find which models are roughly equivalent. Like theyll have their mumbojumbo generic name like ABC24P and this is what you find on reviews but then theres ABC24PE, ABC24PU, ABC24PI3Q and often finding info on if it is just some regional release, different panel or what is actually the difference is problematic.

Moondrop has a lot of sellers. I bought one of their entry IEMs with free shipping, came pretty fast despite being a very hot new release. That said i can't tell you from which retailer anymore ~~(maybe even moondrop themselves?)~~(actually, i dont think you can buy from them, think i bought from shenzhenaudio), they are collecting dust somewhere (I just can't get on board with the form factor, over-ear/on-ear all day, everyday).

Is ml on many defed lists? I dont think it is, lemmygrad.ml is heavily defeded. I switched to lemmy ml a while back because of world having issues and find it okay, the porn is off my feed, but basically everything else (including hex and grad, unfortunately) is in, could be that im missing something, but none of the big instances afaik.

Fair enough, very valid points, especially since this is unlikely to be (completely) a rebranded generic aliexpress phone. And to be fair some digital audio players cost an insane buck (see FiiO M series), so if this is kind of a middle ground, the price could be steep.

And to be fair they did put out an astronomically proced keyboard with a dac inside that had PCB drift issues.

Its not even that, its more the USSR apologism that is horrifying to me, it is clear they have never interacted with someone who has lived through the USSR, especially non-russians. They keep parroting how bad most post-soviet economies are, conveniently leaving out what the USSR did to those same economies on its way out.

Trackers can do so much more than just take time for running. Cadance, ground contact time, recovery, suggestions. My garmin watch has upped my training game considerably. Its a bit like having an online personal trainer.

Moondrop generally is great value and fairly affordable as well as having some of the more famous audiophile IEMs.

Could be the kick I need to switch teams to android again.

How do you figure? Moondrop IEMs are generally great value.

People need variety in their diet, but they almost certainly do not need things like bananas, you can, in most places around the world, get nutritionally complete diets from locally grown sources, which will often be of higher quality, tastier and usually cheaper. I certainly can’t think of anything that I need, that couldn’t be bought at a farmers market. Now I can imagine some dietary restrictions and choices will have those needs, but restrictions can’t be helped and choices are probably more environmentally conscious anyway (vegetarians, vegans).

Local does not have to be in your rural community. Something that is trucked to your local store a hundred(s) miles is certainly better than something that was trucked to a port, shipped halfway across the globe, and trucked again.

“Doing something that Joe isn’t doing is not worth it” is a bad mindset, especially since Joe might not be doing it for the same reason. You can’t expect everyone to start doing it the same day. The more people buy local, the cheaper it becomes to buy locally and less profitable to import.

Regulations would be great, but Id prefer living in a society that can self regulate.
