I mean if you're using the site to try to help out and find bugs sure go for it, but what I was talking about was to the general population, not people like us that are interested in finding bugs and stuff like that. I've personally been in over 10 closed betas for games where I did a lot of bug reporting, but after being in those environments I say what I say because I think that "normal" people should not use the website yet. 

If you were to have played Quake Champions or been in the community for the past 6 months you would know how much shit the devs got because stuff didn't work properly while they were in open beta and then early access. They're slowly improving the game and making it amazing but people, even Quake diehards were basically saying the game was shit and no one should play it because of all the bugs and that also has happened in a lot of other games where I have also been involved in the beta, but not to the extent that it did happen in QC. Now everyone is fine with the game a coming back to it, but there's probably a lot of new people that just gave up because if people that have been playing quake for over 15 years say it's not worth it then why wouldn't you listen to them? So if someone that knows stuff and has lots of posts here starts to say the website is shit right now then people might unsub from floatplane and thus not support the team with the very needed income.

If you want to go to the website and quietly report bugs, go ahead, but I know how things go with betas and shit like that and I know that people are stupid and things go wrong, I was just trying to protect the team.

I'm now, and have been for a week, a proud owner of the Superlux HD-681 Evo, the sound is different from what I was used with the Siberia, the Highs are a huge improvement and so is the sounds stage, it's much much bigger. I like the middles a little bit less and the bass is very good, were horrible out of the box but turned amazing after like 5-10 hours burn in. The bass and lows are different than with the siberias, they can be deeper but sometimes less full.

The point is: Overall the Superlux have a better and more proper sound quality than the Siberias, fake leather ear pads aren't that confortabla but the other ones that are included are amazingly confortable. Generally I just like the Superlux much better and listening to Resistance album on 5.1 virtual surround with my siberia external sound card is amazing! The sound is so much more awesome than with the siberias! The sound stage makes everything shine and with a better sound card and amp or dac I think the headphones could even sound better! Amazing price! Thank you so much for the suggestion! 

Thomann.de has portugal option so it should work for you. They got Superlux HD-681 Evo for a good price. Amazing headphones.

Hi, I just wanted to share this and I think this would be a great topic for the WAN Show because I think Linus will love this!
 
This is a Kickstarter project... well I'll just put here what they have in their page!
 
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1030661323/printoo-paper-thin-flexible-arduinotm-compatible-m
 
 Printoo is a platform of paper-thin circuit boards and modules. It gives makers an open-source, lightweight, flexible, and modular Arduino-compatible platform to create just about anything you want! What makes Printoo amazingly unique is that it comes with a range of printed electronics modules previously unavailable to the public. These are electronics building "blocks" of the future, only not so rigid.
 
Here's one of the boards:
 


They include paper thin batteries, paper like screens that I don't really know how they work but the demo in the video looks amazing!
 
Rant about how there's a lot of technology coming out of Portugal and no one really knows much about it (but please read it, there are amazing things):
 
 
This comes from Portugal! Many people don't know but we actually have a start-up company that is going to start working with my district's hospital (Hospital da Universidade de Coimbra - HUC) to bring DNA sequencing to both the market and to be an active part of patient's diagnostics, this will be finished in about 3 to 5 years! We also have another start-up working on big animal trials already (cows and big animals like that) for a breast cancer fighting drug that uses nanotechnology, I actually spoke with the CEO of this start-up and this might come into human trials in the next 5 years. We also had people in universities discovering a way to make transistors and electronics out of paper (which might have something to do with this project but I don't really know), there's also a company working on virtual tours of entire cities! I met with their Lead Sales (they sell 3d modelling and tours that they make on the platform to the cities and districts) and I then talked with him about Oculus Rift which was still on it's kickstarter campaign and also the Virtuix Omni, they can create entire virtual tours of cities! This is really cool now, but in 5 to 10 years, it'll be amazing with the kind of graphics power and computer imaging advances that are coming! we have a lot of innovation going on and lots of start-ups getting funded and amazing creative people and it just makes me proud to be Portuguese! We've been struggling a lot but it seems like we're going to be just fine :3

I wish I could invest in this company right now. This will be huge some day.

Thanks for posting this! Disclaimer: I'm one of the team members of the project and found this forum while searching for mentions on google.
 
On PT having great start-ups and technology that are not known: I think the world is becoming more meritocratic, particularly with crowdfunding tools being available. Of course it would help if Kickstarter made it easier to launch projects from anywhere, but it is a place where projects are judged solely based on merit, few really care where it comes from. Other mentions of great tech start-ups from Portugal would be Bitalino (DIY body signals, now on sparkfun) and Beethefirst (3D Printing). I think the world is more global and more meritocratic than it was maybe 10 years ago, and start-ups today have a greater chance to succeed independently of where they come from.

Folding@home with this PCB would be Origami

This post feels so complete with that gif...

As someone who loves electronics I think this is really cool and I'm glad it got funded.

This is incredible. Yes please. I want this so badly right now.

Backed for $95.
