Well that's why I shouldn't comment while trying to go to sleep then, isn't it?

Mine have no wire! They are separate buds, one goes in each ear, and they have a battery case like most modern earbuds (huge convenience boost from trying to plug in the old ones with the connector in that super awkward spot).

I used to also use the wired one with the connector that goes on your neck but they died after like four years of abuse and then I found these! They're great, let me know if you can't find them and I'll link to them somehow.

I use Back Beat fit Bluetooth headphones that use the clip behind the ear style. I don't run I bike and I like them because the touch controls are larger and tactile so I know when I pushed the button, the battery life is excellent, but most importantly they do not, I repeat do not block external sound. I need to hear people, horns, sirens, etc and most earbuds, even non-noise cancelling filter out too much sound to be safe.

Also they are sweat proof. Trust me. I sweat a lot. I even wear them on the shower sometimes.

Oh I see. Okay then yes this is unpopular - people got sick of rounded backs because you can't use them flat, they wobble.

I have no fucking idea what anyone in this thread is talking about. The iPhone has and has always had rounded corners. Fucking everyone phone has round corners. The only phones I can even think of that didn't have rounded corners were a Windows phone from like a decade ago and the LG V30 that nobody bought.

What are they talking about anyone know?

Same. The meme overload on the /all/ sort can be kind of obnoxious but it's so easy to block communities that it's a minor nuisance.

Yes. Kevin Durant tore his Achilles and didn't even realize it until he finished sprinting down the court. Rodgers didn't seem to realize it until he tried to stand up. Probably has to do with adrenaline but lots of athletes seem to tear it and not realizes right away, whereas an ACL or hamstring people seem to notice immediately.

Man, it seems like an Achilles tear is the meanest injury. Like so many times athletes don't even notice it happens, then they go to do something totally normal (like get up after a routine hit/sack) and then realize they can't. Like most the time I've seen them they're not even in pain they just straight up cant use their leg correctly.

Fuckin sucks man.

You should really change your wipers more. The blades crack and become ineffective with age even if unused. Maybe not every year but every couple years!

Staying inbounds and getting smashed to pick up half an extra yard instead of going out of bounds when he already had a first. Flubbing the snap, picking it up and then immediately running full force into the D line and tumbling (again) instead of just taking the sack or throwing it away. Forcing the ball into triple coverage to get it intercepted instead of settling for three. Running into three defenders in open field instead of just sliding.

He looked like 2018 Allen tonight and 2018 Allen was not good.

Recognized that it was part of what makes me successful and learned to control it a little. For example, when I struggled with getting things done on time, I learned to set deadlines for myself and stuck to them. I realized that I work better when I know I'm a little up against the clock, so I kind of built that in for myself. The hard part is the not moving the deadline. You can't view it as moveable or it doesn't work.

I also ask myself "how long is it going to take" and most things if the answer is less than five minutes, I just try to force myself to do it and get it out of the way.

For other recurring things I do them on a schedule. So like, every weekend there are things around the house I need to do. It doesn't matter when I do them but I have to get them done the day I say I will. That's the deal Iake myself and it helps.

Those are some of my personal hacks. They don't work for everyone but they work for me.
