What's everyone up to right now?
RE: What's everyone up to right now?
I don't think I know anybody who freaks with spiders like I do...
I have uncontrollable convulsions. I feel like such a girl ... Only my wife knows I'm like that.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

I'm fine with small ones, like most that we get in The UK. I hate the spindly cranefly type ones though, and of course all the big, hairy tropical ones.

Absolutely hate them. They make my skin crawl. That spider has been gone 5 minutes and I'm still hypervigilant. I just know that bitch is going to re-appear before long and it's under my bed, so we might have round 2 of "crawl on Nick".

It's your headphones that are crap and not the proper load for the phone's audio jack.
6dB higher is a lot...why do you need that? Are you deaf? Or in a noisy environment?

Yeah, I know 6dB is a lot. Yeah, that's an exaggeration - 2dB would probably be plenty. I don't think it's the headphones - they aren't crap - so much as it is a limitation of either the phone or one imposed by Android. Every set of headphones / earbuds that I've ever used with every Android device have been insufficiently loud.

A happy thought for you:

there is no way whoever is doing your procedure would do it worse than I would

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Since droid 4 that they cap the output, when you increase the sound volume, it stops at around 75%.... with a warning about how you could damage your ears, yaba daba...
For me, that's usually loud enough... but sometimes... it's not... and I can just hit the "ok" button to increase it up to 100%.
