An obscure one (I think) that I always enjoyed when it was on was Oggy and the Cockroaches. For a few years there I had forgotten the title and had a hell of a time finding it again.

I can never get 12PM and 12AM right.

I don’t think my job is particularly inportant, but I’m definitely proud to do it. I work in repair at a small model train electronics producer. I fix the electronics for customers and also do a bit of customer support.

Unlike a lot of companies where you just get crappy outsourced call center support and if your thing’s broken you just get a new one (with all your settings reset of course), my company actually fixes people’s stuff. I love that I get to do that, and individually help people. It’s also stimulating because customers manage the weirdest things sometimes, and I get to figure out what, why, and how.

They make excellent electronics parts bins, too.

Thank you for asking this, you just reminded me of an adjacent question I have.

As for silicone ones vs. plastic: I can never get the plastic ones to stay in, and they also have just about 0 bass since they don’t seal, so in that sense I prefer silicone ones.

However I don’t get how people can do any movement with them in and not get annoyed by the very loud rumbling noise they make since they seal up the ears. Walking, and even touching the wires… any slight movement of the earbuds against the ear is very loud.

My ideal solution are not fully sealing silicone buds so they stay in but don’t do that very loud rumbling. Unfortunately that’s nigh impossible to get.

Anyone else have trouble with that?

A bit offtopic about a pet peeve of mine, but this is why it’d be super nice if social media that end up getting screenshot had absolute timestamps. Thank you for letting us know.
