Saw a FB friend boosting some high end wireless earbuds that look good and reportedly outperform the standard Apple ones but for the pricepoint they want I'd rather get another pair of full sized wireless over the ears headphones, y'know?

@GenXotaku1971 Apple hasn't eliminated wired earbuds! They still make them in USB-C, Lightning, or 3.5mm flavor, but the latter probably needs a Lightning adapter or USB-C adapter depending on your device.

I mostly use the adapter with IEMs these days. This pair's my current favorite – the price has gone up a bit since I bought them, but that's probably because of their much deserved reputation. (No inline mic or controls on the provided cord, though.)

A weird thing about buying manga digitally is that I often forget where a recommendation came from by the time a preorder's fulfilled. Digital books just arrive on my Kobo one day like a random gift from a stranger.

Anyway, whoever suggested Hirayasumi to me: thank you, it's delightful.

This takes me back. I had a demo disc of this game and remember playing it over and over just for the soundtrack and this opening clip. #GhostInTheShell #PlayStation #PSOne

Holoplus opened its closed beta test for global and I'm in! (It's basically a company-run social media platform dedicated to Hololive prod. content.)

My expectations were pretty low, but exceeded! I don't have a lot of good experiences with niche community platforms for stuff like this, but, everything is super responsive and functioning! It doesn't seem to be completely based on web views that re-layout constantly as things load in.

My test-post w/ a pic of Smol Ame & Phố got a hundred or so likes which is cool (not that I really need the attention haha)

More importantly, the ability to report, hide, and block is available (haven't tested very much; no need to so far!)

It's not Fediverse, but it's small and very friendly for now. Activity is strong, but it just opened, so we'll see if people keep posting in the days to come~

@terrehbyte That’s great to hear! I was hoping it’d have a bit of a Miiverse vibe and it sounds a lot like that.

Not being on Twitter sometimes leaves me feeling a bit out of the loop too, especially when Fes was so quiet in Fediverse this year. It’ll be great to see fan posts and photos on HoloPlus next Fes.

This is a useful heads-up e.g. if you’re on a company Mac and trying to keep your work & personal data separate. Don’t trust iCloud Keychain to stay off. Create a work account. (And yeah, it sucks that Apple sucks at this.)

Episode 0 of Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction is setting things off very differently from the manga. If they're doing right by it, we'll get some good tonal whiplash next week.

All of the minutes in between Ina's MV drop and her birthday stream went to scrutinizing the background text for in-jokes and Lovecraft quotes.

Getting more into – I watched 3rd Fes this weekend. One of the highlights was noticing the choreography in Step and Go. Sora pulls off the foot clap when she sings "every day" so casually and smoothly you could almost miss it. Wow.

There’s fragile, and then there’s rabid Twitter dead-enders.

@tojikomori@urusai.social avatar

@invalidname @QuietMisdreavus I don’t miss Reddit. I was convinced I would when I nuked my account, but looking back there were too many negative and sus interactions like this, and it got worse over time.

I started hanging out on Discord more regularly instead, and was surprised that communities there are often healthier and more friendly than their equivalent subreddits. I just have to be thick skinned about being an Apple user.

This place, of course, is a blessing.

“Pro-Palestine” is still wrong. Opposition to genocide isn’t advocacy on behalf of any one specific group. It’s advocacy on behalf of all humanity.

“Dozens arrested at Yale and NYU as pro-human protests spread”

There we go. Fixed your headline.

Microsoft fanning the flames of my hatred for Windows. If the idea doesn't sound maddening enough, check out the implementation: these ads look just like apps and sit right alongside them.

@qgustavor I hadn't heard of StartAllBack – all I can think of is Kaai Yuki getting mad at her PC.

(I saw that the app predates the song by some years. I'm just really out of the loop when it comes to the things users do to make Windows livable. Dang.)

Finally, it seems that the Kobo eink readers now have color eink screens. No more needing to buy those Boox tablets. :bunhdthink:

@chikorita157 7" is a little too small for manga. I read on a Kobo Aura One (7.8") which is fine for most manga but I have to zoom in for translation notes and anything with dense text. American-formatted comics are right out.
fwiw I'm happy with Kobo itself. I buy from the Kobo store so I use stock OS, but lots of people replace it for something faster at CBZ and other formats. One complaint I often hear from new owners is that Kobo dropped MicroSD for newer devices, so you can't expand storage for yourself.

Been hanging out in Champagne, IL the last few days and incredibly jealous of their bus system. Buses run regularly, routes cover the whole city, there are readable timetables at every shelter, and shelters and stops are well kept and signposted.

I’ve watched several premieres this week and so far the only shows that Ive been able to watch without yawning were Girls Band Cry and Eupho. Gonna catch up with Jellyfish Can’t Swin in the Night later today #anime

@mofumofu Astro Note was a ton of fun. Sort of Maison Ikkoku flavored, vaguely Tenchi maybe plot with a colorful cast and a splash of food porn.

@mofumofu I think I saw you toot about that. I’m putting it down to you being in a bad mood because it’s great 😝

Ah yes, if my grandparents suddenly became younger through magic, I would absolutely start thirsting over then very hornily.

I really try damn hard to not judge or whatever but what the everloving fuck was the author behind Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again thinking?!?

That's an instant drop for me. I'm not wasting my time figuring out if that'll be a running gag.

@literalgrill Yikes. When I saw the trailer it looked like it might go that way but I wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt. Thanks for the warning.

🧵 Just about done migrating from #Plex to #Jellyfin [1/]

@peribotsarah Infuse is the one I've been using for Apple devices. It's mostly good, except that it has a very strong preference for direct play with no apparent override. I have an older Apple TV that struggles with a couple of bigger encodes in my library, so it'd be handy to switch to a transcoded version when needed.

I only recently noticed that Jellyfin has a known clients list which can be filtered by platform too.

@tojikomori@urusai.social avatar

@peribotsarah Sorry for the random reply, but this might interest you: Jeff Geerling's been testing LibreELEC on the Raspberry Pi 5. I just posted a longer toot about it but the official Jellyfin "JellyCon" add-on for it seems to work really nicely with direct play from a Jellyfin server.
