It’s possibly the most underrated type of jewelry, so much customization possible.
Not as beautiful as his hair in that one video though Image

- Comment on Holy moly 1 week ago:
It will be as “good” as GTA 5 and RDR2. Completely linear entertainment with pretty graphics designed for the widest possible audience. I expect the same slow progression as 5, where you unlock clothing stores after completing like 25% of the game. I also expect a kernel level anticheat and an online mode that does everything they seem to criticize in GTA 5’s plot. Oh, and remove any remaining non-linearity, god forbid the player veers off by a centimeter from the scripted route.

- Comment on The Crew from Ubisoft gets revived thanks to the The Crew Unlimited project 1 month ago:
Same, picked it up on a whim a few months before the shutdown, couldn’t put it down. They got the tone perfectly, and the map is really good, and their progression system actually requires you to play the game. It felt magical, like a NFS World sequel of my dreams, the only downside was trying to set up steering properly.
Then i tried the crew 2, and haven’t tried it since, just doesn’t feel as good. - Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 1 month ago:
Makes sense, blurays are at like 50MB/s read, at least you could keep the disc and share it
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 1 month ago:
I think that’s a bit too big to be just the OS, they have like 50GB of built-in stuff (share factory+astro but you can uninstall both). It’s probably something sensible like 60GB but they’re playing it safe by doubling the reserved space. It’s Sony after all
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 1 month ago:
You lose some because 825GB refers to 825.000.000.000 bytes, divide by 1024 and you get 768GB usable space. In the early days of ps5 there was 667GB left over after OS and stuff
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 1 month ago:
You can still get modern games on a bluray, but people started valuing convenience in the moment over everything else. That’s why digital-only consoles got so huge, on top of being cheaper.
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 1 month ago:
I mean… you can still use physical media for games, just prepare for it to be awfully slow unless it’s like a tiny indie game or something low-fi. As for the console makers, they still offer non-digital models. Idk who’s “they” in this instance,

Stopped reading after “if it’s promoted by YT it’s not worth watching”, that shit is based on your recently watched channels if your account settings aren’t all fucked up.
If you turn off history - yeah, you’ll get default recommendations and those are cancer. Probably the only good reason to turn history on. Even then, it’s a bandaid on a horrible UI that gets worse every update. - Comment on Seen in a public bathroom. What am I missing? 2 months ago:

Not having DRM is better for piracy. So in a way they’re helping “true preservation” more than other platforms that allow DRM.

Yep, that one. I saw it on their telegram first, they make a similar system for quads too

Ptashka Systems make a reusable one. A bit more expensive but the net cartridges themselves are less than half the price of Tenet’s launcher. Same net size too.
- Comment on Babe can you refill my drink from the cloaca dispenser please? 3 months ago:
You don’t have to accept pairing, if both devices are discoverable they can see each other. It doesn’t have to be some app, you can be discoverable with 0 apps installed. That’s what I’m talking about with rudimentary tracking.
- Comment on Babe can you refill my drink from the cloaca dispenser please? 3 months ago:
Anyone with a spectrum analyzer can see people using their earbuds, they can’t deduce any useful information from that. Several analyzers? Yea, can triangulate signals, so what. They still can’t know for sure who they belong to, since BT doesn’t transmit identifying info unless you’re pairing (aka discoverable), and even then it can be randomized.
Also I posted in in a different comment but I’ll leave this here too.
I can get a lot further from my phone than I’d be from the drink machine in who knows how many fast food spots before service drops.
A typical fast food restaurant has dozens, if not hundreds of wifi and bt devices. Nothing surprising when your phone has to fight to get loud enough for your buds.
From a quick search, bluetooth classic has 79 channels, and if there’s 2.4Ghz Wifi in use, it has 14 in damn near the same frequency range.
If you’re worried about tracking - there are far easier ways to do that than hope your BT devices are discoverable and then try and match the (possibly randomized) device IDs to you.
- Comment on Babe can you refill my drink from the cloaca dispenser please? 3 months ago:
Depends on the device, there was a story recently of a Nissan infotainment system that was perma-pairing as long as you had the options screen open afaik. If your earbuds are pairing close by, as is the machine - you can probably make some rudimentary motion tracking. Gonna be inaccurate as hell though, and it relies on both devices permanently being in pairing mode.
I can get a lot further from my phone than I’d be from the drink machine in who knows how many fast food spots before service drops.
This part though is way easier to explain with interference. A typical fast food restaurant has dozens, if not hundreds of wifi and bt devices. Nothing surprising when your phone has to fight to get loud enough for your buds.
