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.

Not so much “my workplace” but at one of the cafes I worked at, the owner was going through a divorce, and living temporarily in his office out the back. As well as having all sorts of power tools and shit lying around (one time I accidentally knocked over an angle grinder, which turned itself on and started spazzing out all over the concrete floor, spraying sparks everywhere and leaving a huge cut in my shoe), he was also dealing a not-insignificant amount of hard drugs out of that office.

Is there any way a customer could figure out they were running a cracked version?

lol holy shit.

Sadly I can’t foresee a future where social media isn’t a dominant force. Like what could possibly displace it at this point? Only dismantling GAFAM could make it work.

Yes I am aware of the irony of posting this comment on social media.

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

I’m very tech-literate but Discord has always seemed so fucking messy to me. So many channels and emojis and I barely know how to send someone a DM or add them to my friends list or whatever. How on earth are you supposed to keep track of anything?

I also used to run a LOT and now can’t anymore cause of injury. Tried swimming but it wasn’t enough to keep me in shape due to my age and…indulgent lifestyle.

Going to the gym became my only option and yeah, the results were almost instantaneous. I lost quite a few kilos, felt more energised, and my outward appearance improved.

I think when you consider the positives it makes a lot of sense…

• You feel good for challenging yourself, and even better when you succeed.
• You feel good full stop because exercise gives your endorphins.
• You feel good for sticking to a routine. This has the added benefit of demanding that you are more organised generally, in order to make time for workouts.
• You feel good because you start to look better.
• You feel good because it helps to relieve day-to-day stress that builds up.

I’m not aiming to get huge or anything. But I think the benefits should be pretty obvious. I enjoy going for the reasons I just listed and cause I can listen to music on my headphones and kind of zone out.

Fair enough. I’m not at that stage yet, still trying to find communities to join haha.

As a fountain pen user and fan of stationery, I can assure you not all paper is created equal. For me it’s 100% worth paying for the good stuff.

I’m on Jerboa for the moment, it gets the job done, was more intuitive for me than Liftoff. With that said I will 100% be switching to Boost when it’s available.

Yeah it’s weird. Maybe you can’t see them because I posted them when I still had Japanese selected? If you re-enable Japanese could you see them?

The other poster solved it for me. Are you sure you have English selected?

Yep, that was it. Selecting Japanese seems to have deselected English. Weird. Added English and my posts are visible again, thank you.

That’s probably it. I thought I had it set to English and Japanese, not sure why Japanese would take precedence, I’ll look into it.
