Crampon

I'm looking for some new ear buds for running and other purposes, but finding anything suited for a mediocre active lifestyle seems hard.

Now I have a pair of Sennheiser sport true wireless. What works is the audio quality and reliable charging. What doesn't work is the very clunky charging case, and any trace of rain will adjust the volume, change the song or pause the track. A stable 3/5 product. Wearing a hood just amplifies the problem as a tiny amount of moisture will interfere.

I'm not trusting Sennheiser for a new pair right now as their Momentum True Wireless 3 buds had a faulty charging tech. Both me and my partner had to send them in and receive new ones. Bad for us, bad for the environment.

Any recommendations for a pair with a nice balanced sound quality, good case, and reliable controls in all conditions?

I think om going insane. When you carry it by the handle it's so long that it may scratch the ground, but the handles are too short to cary it properly over your shoulder. What's going on? How are they so popular?

A welcome change in my opinion. Having played through the biome both solo and duo im happy to see spawn rates reduced a bit. The initial landing is fine as a challenge, but after that it gets very tedious and boring after a while.

There's only so many skeletons you want to parry before you're fed up with the play loop. Hopefully this will make engaging the biome a bit more interesting and better paced.

Saw The Zone of interest yesterday.

The list provides seeds, links and a short description of the starter island and it's surroundings. No special order. I just enjoy looking for Island spawns.

1: ys3gYb8k56 Small island in swimming distance to the closest boss.

2: 3wuuiCXwTC Two medium sized islands isolated from the first boss.

3: JFezuBPp0G Very isolated starter island. Medium size. Map has fairly large islands elsewhere.

4: UXL0hU9qKf medium size started island. Pretty hard spawn regarding progress to bosses.

5: S8gqZJnHfK Tiny starter island with swimming distance to closest land. Good north to south axis acorss the map nearby.

6: esrAdQkm5q Medium sized starter island. Requires a fair bit of sailing to progress.

7: PfA9wj3f2v Mediun size started island. Large islands nearby. First three bosses require little movement.

8: 0L4FgEDG4J Tiny starter island with swimming distance to several medium islands. Not optimal for fast boss progression. Good for long exploration sessions.

9: i3CGcgqFv2 Small starter island. Possible to progress without sailing. Fairly hard progression to bosses.

10: 5rOsEmaRy5 Small starter island with the first three bosses not requiring any sailing.

11: EKmNbxiuhK Medium sized starter island requiring sailing to reach the first boss. Possible to reach large portions of the map with little sailing.

12: AnGFH3FwQG Mediun sized starter island only separeted by a river from the nearest land.

13: WtanWD7Eiw Medium sized starter island with swimming distance to the first boss. Bad place if you want your permanent base close to the spawn.

14: I6SSa7afVu Small starter island with hard progression to all bosses after the first one.

15: Z3xHPebym3 Medium sized starter island with possibilities for early iron.

15 island spawns for all island enjoyers. I've searched through 100s of seeds and saved some of the more interesting ones regarding islands.

For the uninitiated. Unpredictble stacked five jads and killed the sixth one by itself with some insane strats.

Why not Chief in command or Commander of chiefs or similar?

The sentence basically means Commander in biggest or Commander in most important. It's a strange structure.

US and other Nato countries should not bother with protecting merchant ships attacked in the Red sea. The shipping companies have to rely on the navies of their flag states for protection. The 10 largest flag states for shipping are:

Panama, Liberia, Marshall Islands, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malta, Bahamas, China, Greece, Japan

Hong Kong is now China. But there is still an independent shipping tax haven there. The shipping companies avoiding taxes in western countries does not deserve protection from the same countries.

They can get a return of the tax money by letting the mentionee countries send their navies. Greece is a NATO country, so NATO can participate to some degree with support to the flag state navies.
