@fedora it works

good for casual listening when im too lazy to grab my headphones?

it's above casual listening

ok might as well buy it

its price of 1 meal

I like the ATEs better than the Rock Zircons

the latter has too much bass for my liking

Superlux 668b 🆗

yea

i have rock zircon, xiaomi hybrid and kz ate at home

the hybrid are perfect in terms of overall performance in my opinion

but the kz ate have better soundstage and detail, but have a harsh high which could be nerfed through eq

as well as the rock zircon

while the zircon tends to have strange isolation which makes the bass overpronounced sometimes, depending on the humidity of your ear-canal

zircon are prone to have an unsatisfying fit

to many people i recommended these headphones on

zircons don't last very long

`Superlux 668b`
amazing, didn't know it existed

FUN FACT

All the shit you buy from china is made by hand

and typically not made by automated machines

many 22nm and 14nm SoC from China. now do they assemble that by hand?

make chink socs great again

ayy

@tulio (túlio) obviously integrated circuits aren't, but the components get assembled onto the circuit board by hand. If you wanna learn more, see the first chapter of "The Hardware Hacker: Adventures in Making and Breaking Hardware" by Andrew "bunnie" Huang.

do they solder SMDs by hand too?

Do you think there could ever be something like Shenzen in a semi-free country? I'd love to live close to someplace where all the components and electronics books are cheap af, but I don't wanna give up muh freedoms in order to do so.

@tulio (túlio) Not sure, but just look at a Foxconn assembly line and see how much is done by hand. There's over 500 people in those lines.

I've seem them, I stand corrected

Seriously tho, read the book I mentioned. It's well written and interesting af.

@(import (srfi 151)) does HK sort of count?
