Let’s be real, nothing Amazon makes would be as cool as that guy.

Maybe that is what it was that I am thinking of.

I could swear my original US release had some weird combo of the two. I gave away 90% of my PS1 and PS2 games last year so I can’t check now, but I really think it had the main image shown from the Japanese release on the case. Maybe the image was shown in game on the loading screen or something and I am just remembering it wrong.

They have these at my local Whole Foods too, I was horrified the first time I saw it. I have yet to see a single person use these devices, and I hope that is the common behavior.

Was the TV you got from Sceptre? I got one recently as a dumb TV and it was quite cheap. No complaints thus far, but also managed my expectations in display and speaker quality from a $150 TV.

They include every service in the world, but if there is no headphone jack they can get fucked.

The issue is that it was the DE originally, some people (myself included) just didn’t fully get the memo when it changed like 15 or so years ago. I haven’t used the KDE DE since before that change, so I get how it could be missed. Rebranding is hard, even years later. I am sure many people think KFC still stands for Kentucky Fried Chicken too.

Reminds me of the informal study where people kept choosing pizza that came in more/smaller slices because they thought it was more pizza.

Definitely not you, they absolutely do this with snaps and have for a while. This was the main reason I stopped using Ubuntu.

Not exactly, when Crunhbang development ceased Crunchbang++ aka #!++came out and that distro is currently maintained. As far as I can tell #!++ is more of the same, which is a good thing. I had to retire my tired old eee pcs a long while back, so the NUC I replaced it with was fine with standard Debian since it had 16x the ram.

I was always a fan of crunchbang when I used a couple of eee pcs as servers. It ran very light.

My “rack” consisted entirely of old laptops, two of which were eeepcs, for years and it worked great. I replaced them all with a single NUC later heh

If wanting to have cool oscilloscopes and blinkenlights is wrong then I don’t want to be right.

HN comments seem pretty sure it’s a scam or just well intentioned vaporware. I agree it seems way too good to be true. I’d love to be wrong here and I’ll line right up to buy if the price isn’t insane.

I found the Meze too small/tight for me, but they sounds OK. For the 58X, I am assuming you found or figured out yourself the safe way to band the headband for larger heads (if not look it up, probably have better luck searching for HD650 but the band is identical).

I am also an enthusiast of the… dinosaur of similar words

It had to have a DAC if it was converting the bluetooth digital signal, but it could have been either a bad DAC or just poorly implemented DAC chip. I’ve seen it in a lot of these types of devices (Fiio, I am looking at you). It’s not like the chips are that expensive in comparison to the final price of the device.

Interesting. If that is so, then I am surprised that neither actually support actual lossless at that res without blowing up the noise floor.

The swivel hinge on the DT 770/880/990 family used to be sold individually under $2 for a reason :) I am surprised to hear your M50s broke that way though. I had Sennheiser hd600 and hd650s both crack badly and I had to buy entirely new assemblies for the headband, so I am surprised those are working for you. Good to hear though.

The Amiron/DT-1990/1770 family has a newer mechanism that is much more sturdy and I haven’t had an issue with my DT-1990s.

They probably meant the 5a which was the last Pixel with a jack. I am still holding onto my 4a as I haven’t found a replacement that can support the ROM I use.
