- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 2 hours ago:
Although I don’t hate my PS5 (it’s the only console i still use), I do think the launch PS3 was peak Playstation. Yeah, it did have a “Homer car” vibe to it by including everything and the kitchen sink, but it was truly amazing.

Yeah, the devil is in the details. Is there a cooldown? Are there quantity limitations? Location could be interesting because you could put ten tons of gravel a mile high and drop it. You could have Nasa pay you to quickly assemble a compacted gravel mini-moon at a lagrange point for a space dock.

It does raise the question on if this could be useful in some sort of hand to hand combat situation. What happens if I my first is 6" away from your face and I teleport 7" forward? I guess the same question applies to walls. If I can just teleport through matter, then it’s usefulness is suddenly quite high.

I would be the Gravel King. You need gravel, you come to me. I would be a benevolent king though. I would grant gravel to those that need it.

Can’t argue with that… until something goes wrong and I hate it (really just mad at myself)

The fact that you say using NFS makes you old makes me feel like fucking Yoda

I imagine it gunks up the lock mechanism. I have had to eventually replace locks I used it in.

For real, this just further cemented me not wanting to buy any new Intel devices.

When I was 18 and my parents moved away, I only had $30 for food that first month. I was able to get ramen for 10/$1 and it got me through. It took me many years to be able to enjoy ramen after I was able to afford not being forced to eat it.

I think we are living in the Star Trek universe, but we’re just getting to the Bell Riots shown in DS9. No word on if we get much past it.
- Comment on The Terminal Demise Of Consumer Electronics Through Subscription Services 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, as I said, it is a wacky gimmick, and it does work. My teen kid got a big kick out of it and at the insane price some of the new artists have been charging to get their music in cassette form, it pays for itself in less than three albums if I already had them digitally.
I will say again that it is a $60-ish portable music player, don’t expect $1000 Sony gear build quality or interface. I specifically didn’t want some sort of Franken-Android DAP, which most newer dedicated music players are, so it worked out.
- Comment on The Terminal Demise Of Consumer Electronics Through Subscription Services 2 weeks ago:
It’s not particularly high end, but I fairly recently bought a Mixxtape MP3 player for $60 new and it works well and can play as a cassette. The gimmick is wacky (but does work), but I mostly got it because I had to switch to a phone without a headphone jack and I wanted something small and inexpensive.
- Comment on The Terminal Demise Of Consumer Electronics Through Subscription Services 2 weeks ago:
Just throwing it in there that none of my Fiio DACs or amps help up over time, especially with the more portable models. Maybe the build quality is better on their higher end models, but I’m definitely not buying any more of their stuff.

Thanks for the tip, I did the code block as a quick edit because I knew it would at least work.
