  I’m pretty sure you are right - it was probably the fashion scene that was a slave to these trends and everyone else was like ‘pretty happy with them either way’.

  Yep Yaxi, between that and the built in comfort slider in the headphones it’s comfortable enough

  I did get aftermarket pads for them but they are not made for long term listening. But that is beside the point - they show you don’t need to spend $1000 to get great sound and they are only one example of that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The eye opening moments for me were

  1. Listening to $35 Porta Pro headphones and realizing you don’t need a lot of money for great sound

  2. ABX testing and realizing I couldn’t tell the difference AT ALL and certainly couldn’t remember the last sound bite well enough to make a real comparison anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mods recommendation for elden rings⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Most important things to know:

  1. Level vigor
  2. Iframes - understand and get used to the dodge roll mechanic
  3. Upgrade the weapon with your favorite moveset once you have the base stats to use it

  The rest has been said here. No need for mods, just try something else and/or go somewhere else if you hit a wall. There are a few difficulty spikes but they are overcome with additional leveling

  Looking forward to trying this! Just the kind of game I like that expands on the art form and show they can be more than just games.

  Ha damn there was a tiny voice inside telling me I was getting the quote wrong while I typed too. Should have listened to it.

  Yeah combat aged very poorly but it does a host of other things someone should take and expand on.

  I really had fun with it though the city building aspect starts to feel too loading bar heavy. I wish they had a more clever way to disguise that aspect of it.

  Is that true? I haven’t heard MS say anything about enabling local LLMs. Genuinely curious and would like to know more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenXcom Extended takes over from OpenXcom for the classic X-COM / UFO: Enemy Unknown⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Do any of the new Xcom games capture the same magic? I tried to get into on of them and I wasn’t sure if they had lost something or if I was remembering a childhood game too fondly.

  Oh fuck off with that. Y’all are promoting the technology with the promise of replacing human jobs. What did you think the response would be?

  That is not to mention building it by literally stealing the wealth of human thought and then being surprised that we’re mad you want to sell it back to us with brand new monthly fees. Fuck off with all of that.

  All AI models should be required to be open sourced to compensate humanity for this theft of our labor and ideas.

  And trafficking! Trump’s base was on a mission to root out pedos AND sex traffickers. This is at the core of the awful things Epstein was found guilty of. Take away the pedophilia and you still have monstrous behavior that should be dealt with harshly.
