Same, but I have some hope for the 440 lbs anvil in the shed.

You can't get Q701s anymore.. and K712 which was supposed to be an upgrade sounds like shit, so I keep repairing mine and postponing switching to the backup pair I managed to snag as new old stock..
The majority of HDD failures happen in the first 1-2 years (see Backblaze data). I have a NAS that has the same 5 drives running since 2013 and in all that time those disks were not spinning for maybe 3 weeks total.
That said I assume that any drive can fail at any time and anything I don't want to lose has 2 backup copies, e.g. stuff I am working on on my PC gets copied to that NAS, that in turn backs it up online.
In response my in-house policy has changed to allow purchase of 0 Xiaomi devices per year.
I have all the expensive and/or critical (e.g. boiler) devices behind double conversion UPSes - those are the safest ones and also help with brownouts. They are cheap if you get them second hand and buy new batteries. 2000-3000VA units can be found for as little as 150 euro + batteries.
I'm more tired of dozens of reposts of the same porn that I can't filter out because NSFW is a catch-all for anything 18+. I also have an issue with the quality of the said porn :-P
They (FCC) forced firmwares being signed so nobody can install their own on the off chance it unlocks TX power or frequencies not allowed by FCC.
I've had to deal with a family member like that and managed to shock them into shutting up about it in my company. "If you are going to shove your politics into everyone's faces you'll have to listen to my opinions too. You know what I think about ? I'd love to spend my weekend slowly drowning them in a barrel of cat piss, but I'm worried it's too good for them." 3 years later not a pip.
I had to skip a morning run today. That's 15 years in a row. Exercise induced asthma is a bitch.
Wait, it's physically possible to like Vance? I was sure the dislike is on a genetic level like uncanny valley.

I have bought K712 before the plague and ended up returning them. There was a little more bass than Q701, which was nice, but he amazing treble of Q701 was gone. I found the "upgrade" sounding boring and generic.
To clarify: I have other headphones: HD660S, M1060C and each of them have something to offer as far as listening experience goes, just like Q701. K712 didn't add anything new, nor was it an acceptable Q701 replacement.
