🗡 🎧 ⌚ Goaty Gadgets

Just prepping for the Zombie apocalypse CS.

A couple of purchases this week. A grid-it organizer: an elasticated organizer for storing all your bits and bobs. They come in various sizes and have a zipped pocket and hanging loop on the reverse. I plan to use it for travels to save rooting around in bags for all those essential items. Also means you can swap all your stuff between bags easily. Mrs G now wants one for her make up.

Mine in action:

And one of these little keyring multi tools:

I have a slight obsession with mini tools.

Make your own jokes.

There’s blood on that knife and that Sharpie has clearly been used to write a ransom note.

It’s everything a psychotic serial killer with a pathological hatred of women stemming from an oedipal complex could want.

Damn. I removed the cable ties and nettle laced wanking mitt and I’ve still been rumbled.

Shame it wasn’t bigger … you’re still going to be rooting around in your bag for the duct tape

The goat will only be rooting dead bodies from the look of the equipment he has

These do work. You hear the music perfectly but no ringing ears later. Pricey but worth it to maintain healthy hearing. Also good for blocking out snoring. They’ve even got a specific pair for that now.

Got one of these yesterday, fed up of having a four-gang with many different chargers on it, also makes my desk neater and stop Mrs BTripz whinging at me

Help?!?!?

I need a new TV old one finally blew up

We are both happy Samsung Mobile users and run Win 7 through to 10 on varying types of Laptops

We want to stream stuff these days so have Netflix & Amazon Prime subscritions.

I also have Mobdro on my Samsung

So.

I know that Smart TV’s have different OS. I also see that the newer Android units from Sony seem to be getting the better reviews (I can’t afford one of them)

But Philips now have Android and also have cracking deals here on 4K Tellies.

Am I right in assuming I will still need some form of Casting hardware - Chrome Cast? Would that even work with Mobdro?

Or do I really have to keep hopping around and finding Kodi Plug Ins (in a market where it is not YET completely illegal to use or download that)

This could trigger a mass debate.

And no, IF you want to see Trudie from Westworld get her kit off you can click the link :slight_smile:

40% of people wouldn’t consider it being unfaithful if they had sex with a ROBOT

  • More than one in three people in the UK would consider having sex with a robot
  • And 39 per cent think we’ll be having relationships with robots by 2050
  • Professor Noel Sharkey from Sheffield University said robots will increasingly join sex dolls in the porn industry in the coming years

While you might think that having sex behind your partner’s back would count as cheating, it seems that many people don’t think this is the case if the other ‘person’ is a robot.

A shocking new study has revealed that 40 per cent of Britons don’t see sex with a robot as cheating.

Despite this, one in three Britons said they would be ‘horrified’ if one of their friends started a relationship with a robot, with 16 per cent saying they would try to convince them to abandon it.

KEY FINDINGS

  • More than one in three people in the UK would consider having sex with a robot

  • 40 per cent wouldn’t see sex with a robot as cheating

  • 39 per cent think we’ll be having relationships with robots by 2050

  • 30 per cent said they would be ‘horrified’ if one of the friends started a relationship with a robot

  • 79 per cent said it would be ethically wrong to harm a robot

The new sex robot survey was commissioned by UK online streaming service, Now TV.

The survey comes in relation to Now TV’s programme, Westworld, in which people can visit a futuristic theme park to live out their darkest fantasies.

Professor Noel Sharkey from Sheffield University, who recently published a consultation report with Foundation of Responsible Robotics said: ‘Robotics and artificial intelligence is a long way off the technical sophistication of the theme park in Westworld, but we’re already seeing dolls being used in the adult entertainment industry and we can expect robots to join them soon.’

The results showed that more than one in three people in the UK would consider having sex with a robot.

And 40 per cent wouldn’t see this as cheating.

The survey also revealed that 39 per cent of people in the UK think that we’ll be having relationships with robots instead of humans in just 34 years.

They turned up at last(typically, whilst i was on holiday). That didn’t take long did it, just 8 months late.

Now i can put up with a delay or two, if it means the product has been improved and on the whole the product is good(i will review in a minute).

I need to start with the company. Crazybaby have developed speakers before and have worked with some of the biggest selling makers, so i had some faith in their ability to deliver(eventually).

The problems started with the delays, as people will always be disappointed but generally accepting if you communicate. Crazybaby failed dismally in this respect. Uninformative vague updates, ignoring emails and queries and only putting stock c&p replies on the message board(i never want to read “we are hoping to ramp up production” again). Their excuse “we don’t have the staff to deal with the volume of questions”. You took $2.7m off us, answer the fucking questions.

The real killer was discovering they were suppling “retail partners” before the people that invested to make it possible in the first place. I paid for this to be developed, only to see it available from online retailers in the US/China/Japan a month before i get them.

Cunts.

Review coming soon(ish). I’m hungry and that’s my priority now :lou_smiley:

So, the review.

Packaging: All good. Standard top end look. I don’t really care, but a lot of people consider this important.

Charging case: looks great, but slightly large(still fits in jeans pocket). The problem is the magnetic connection. Although strong, the buds can move and so not charge. I am charging with the case open so I can check. This is not practical outdoors. Also not sure it will change the buds twice(fully) as stated.

Earbuds: Well made and by far the best looking on the market. Extremely lightweight and comfortable. Push left bud for calls, right bud for music. Simple and works fine, but touch technology(there’s an idea, i will come back to) rather than push button would be preferable. Battery of buds gets around the three hours stated.

Sound: Sound quality is very good, slight lean towards bass but not excessive. Have listened to a variety of music and very happy with the overall sound(there is also an equaliser). Volume is noticeably louder than any others buds i have tried.

Connectivity: The major area of concern(reading reviews). I do get drop outs but mainly when i’m 3-5m+ away. Occasional ones closer, but few and far between. Am yet to use outdoors with lots of movement, so it could get worse.

Overall good, look/fit/sound all do the job, but i got fidgety in July, so these are turning up sometime in the future.

LOL I can just see you with those in looking like some modern day Lt. Uhura :lou_lol:

True, but Bluetooth 5 and no master/slave, either can be used individually if desired.

The airs only take calls in the left(master) bud and i’m partially deaf in that ear. Couldn’t use buds for about 3 years, but given time the brain works around the problem and i only notice it now if i take out the right bud(hence shit for calls).

If my daughter doesn’t steal one(deliberately didn’t order white to try to stop this happening), i will have a pair for home and one for outdoors.

P. S The airs sound quality really is good. I like a lot(apart from above mentioned).

Read the reviews :lou_lol:
