Just had the same problem with my LucidSound LS45 … the headband is metal, I saw the recommendation to get them in one of those “buy it for life” threads so I did …
Turns out that the end caps of the headband are plastic and prone to breaking … I was able to save them by buying a non working “parts only” set on eBay and replacing the parts
This thing has been with me for 8 years and counting … they’ve been along for 3 motherboards, 2 cars and 6 girlfriends LOL

- Comment on Is there any reason not to charge my laptop with a USB C phone charger? 1 week ago:
Depending on the charger, it may be exactly the same thing.
Go watch a video about the P.D (Power delivery) standard.
Macbook air and up use P.D2.0 (65W)
There is a newer version (PD3.0) that goes up to 100W, but it’s more expensive, rare and hasn’t really caught up as much.

Interestingly enough … the Cuban slang for “gay” is the same word we use to describe one of these gender changing fish
“Cherna” … while more light heated than the English F word, it’s still a derogatory term so please don’t use it on your friends.
Actually now that I think about it, this is how it’s most commonly used … Straight males sling it to their other straight male friends.

longpress the bottom of the screen, it brings up the seekbar.
Also … there’s a moded APK out there that removes ads, blocks some metadata capture and enables the seek bar on every video (and allows downloads)
