My man

Kodi with a Real Debrid subscription for me.

I recently got a Qudelix 5K and it has replaced my old desktop amp and all my dongles and stuff in one hit, it’s great!

Damn son, if the Eikon aren’t high end cans I don’t know what to tell you! lol. I’m a ChiFi IEM plonker and my nicest headphones are the 6XX and a Fostex THX00. No way I’ll be going further!

I did get sucked in. I bought a few Filcos (I live in Japan so JIS layout is a must) and recently got the new Keychron K8 Pro JIS for home. It’s MUCH nicer all around than the Filcos.

As for headphones, I have a few nice sets, but state of Chinese IEMs these days is SO GOOD that $20-30 can get you some REALLY good sound. I still get a new pair every now and then just to sample new flavours, but I’m finished spending big money on amps and stuff.

TBH loads of stuff about headphones and audio equipment, gaming and computers, etc. and also discovered loads of great music and movies there.

Thankfully none of the games I’m interested in playing have MTX. Indie is where it’s at.

I’m waiting for one with an OLED screen and good battery life. New models are coming out all the time and I’m excited to see what’s available in a year or two.

People still throw OCD around like they’re the world’s quirkiest person “oh that’s just my OCD lol”

True blue battler!

Unsatisfactory for what? The only things I can’t find on RD are occasional really old or foreign films/shows. Even then there’s usually at least a 480p version if I’m really desperate. I have considered switching to Usenet before but it seemed super complicated.

if I say I’m not interested In something they take no notice and send it to my recommendations again regardless.

omg yes fuck this. I constantly get fed entire categories of videos on games which I actively hate; I have never watched a single video for any of them and have said “not interested” to probably 50+ videos, but they still pop up every day.

Totally this for me and I’m someone who understands how bad Google is. I’ve been using the same Gmail account for twenty years. It’s such an integral part of my everyday life. I have hundreds of stars on maps, a meticulously organised and synced Drive, all my YouTube favourites and subscriptions, Photos that are all mostly geotagged, etc. Degoogling would just be such a major hassle, and all my stuff would never be as nicely integrated ever again.

I’ll check it out. Kodi definitely does take some nerdy configuration. BTW Fen is much faster than Seren, give it a try.

With the Fen add-on linked with Trakt.

I use Kodi with a subscription to Real Debrid. Are these options better?

I honestly hardly even play retro games, but for some reason I love getting controllers. I use the official controllers with my PS4 and PS5, but I also have two 8bitDo SN30 Pros, and 8bitDo Ultimate BT which I use for PC and Switch, and even an arcade stick somewhere (I made a promise to myself that I was gonna pick a fighting game to get good at, but never did).

I don’t mean to steal attention away from Iceland and hope you are all safe, but it’s a similar thing in Japan. We’re due for a megathrust earthquake that could be way way worse than Fukushima.

I loved this game too! But was never able to beat it :(

Tunic is the best new game I have played in a long time. It’s very very clever. It’s definitely not just a Zelda clone, or an isometric Soulslike. I 100% recommend it but DO NOT LOOK ANYTHING UP BEFOREHAND. The feeling of discovery it gives you is the best part.
