“Sentencing”, as in determining a sentence (punishment or remedy) for a crime. Still incorrect, though, since he was only charged at this point, not sentenced.

The sample size is too low to give an accurate result.

Hell of a first day, isn’t it? Alastair Grey, with an E.

:))))

You seem a little on edge, young man.

I find it concerning that lying is apparently always an option for NTs.

WHY ARE YOU IRONING CLOTHES WITH THE SOUP STOVE?

Cheap and good ANC? Nah. I really hate saying this, but if you want good wireless with active noise cancelling, consider Apple. The new airpods are said to be the best.

Otherwise, try in-ear monitors, and try getting large silicone ear dinguses that performers use during concerts.

No. A bluetooth headset (or any wireless audio thing really) has to contain a bluetooth radio, a digital-analog converter, and an amplifier. The signal goes through all of that before it reaches the speaker. The aux input bypasses all of that and goes directly to the speakers, using whatever DAC is on the other end of the cable. It’s purely an analog signal connection and can’t power the electronics. It also means that when the battery inevitably goes cack, you can still use it with a wire.

Some expensive headphones, like the Focal Bathys, offer USB-C input, which essentially turns them into external sound cards. Excellent video, watch the entire thing.

It’s bonehealingjuice, but ODing on five different kinds of stimulants while CRANKING THE HOOOOOG

Bluetooth ear hooks are also available

Why is an app necessary in the first place?

(edit) AH, they went with the classic “it has bass therefore high quality” approach with a little bit of top end sprinkled on. They sure seem to use a lot of post-processing, right after claiming “just how the artist intended”. Algorithmic bass boost, equalizer, noise cancellation all running on that tiny little DAC and only usable with the app.

I hate technology so much.

I know I’m a little late with the unsolicited advice, but get a pair of KZ ZSN for $20 and maybe a bluetooth adapter kit, you’ll be a lot better off.

I certainly wouldn’t feel safe working next to a CEO. Who knows when they’ll snap and do something horrible?

that’s okay, I stole it too

Civ doesn’t compare at all, it is nothing. Completing the main scenario (building a silo and launching a rocket) can take days to weeks if you jump in with zero knowledge.

Factorio is the definition of a dopamine drip. You start with a pickaxe and work your way up through the technology tree. Coal, coal-burning mining rigs, smelting furnaces, conveyor belts, coal-burning inserters, steam generators, electricity, assemblers, vehicles, oil processing, chemical processing, better generators, better automation, more complex materials… and that’s just the individual items. You’ll have to build assembly lines for increasingly complex items, transport networks with conveyor belts, pipes, or trains, find raw material quarries and wells because everything is finite, then either manage air pollution or expect to be overrun by alien bugs. Small individual steps, but they add up very quickly and there’s always something to do.

I’m forcing myself not to buy the recently released expansion because I know I’ll lose days to it. If you have ADHD or a thing for automation, it is stupidly addictive. The factory must grow.

Those books were published in 2019 and 2021. They’ll still be mostly accurate a decade from now. Open-source developers usually try not to introduce breaking changes to mature software unless absolutely necessary.

It’s the closest we’ll ever come to time travel. You start playing and suddenly it’s the next morning.

Having your spacecraft ripped apart by floating point rounding errors was part of the charm, and I’m sure that some speedrunner has used a massive disintegration bomb to cause the physics calculation frame to hang and phase through an obstacle.

• The release of Pokémon GO
• The simultaneous release of DOOM Eternal and Animal Crossing
• The murder assassination of a CEO extermination of a human parasite

are probably the closest we’ve ever come to world peace.

Now I’m wondering who that guy is and how the company fucked him over.
