Battlerite and OmegaStrikers

Kind of like that, I got into them as they were thriving, since it was on beta/release, but they died very quickly afterwards and it is a shame because nothing captures that feel for me, I like short burst competitive games like that, but I guess people generally aren’t into stuff like that.

E: And actually one more like that, the goatest of them all tbh, just been so long that i forgot about it, but this is one that is an awesome idea for anyone looking for some fun friend group comp game:

SpeedRunners.

This last one is a damn shame, because there really is nothing like it.

Oh yes, compelling analysis of the court case, hope you publish soon.

The genocidal act of checks notes defending your country against a foreign invader.

If only we had an international institution to deal with such claims 🧐.

Ah yes, the perfectly straightline route from lowering conscription age (to an unreasonable 25 years !!!1!1!111) to genocide. No slopes involved.

Careful, might slip down that slope.

Fair enough on the multi users front, didn’t consider that.

That said, this does look like a great QoL for surgery, theres people with personal portable ultrasound probes in the same price bracket (a much more questionable choice tbh, bringing in personal diagnostic equipment is asking for trouble), can totally see a surgeon buying this for personal use.

And even purchasing for each surgeon is really not a big problem, you have disposable items that cost more sometimes.

You could simply have an OR account, could preload all scheduled notes and bobs your uncle, its also viable as a personal purchase.

Trackers can do so much more than just take time for running. Cadance, ground contact time, recovery, suggestions. My garmin watch has upped my training game considerably. Its a bit like having an online personal trainer.

Fucking love my instinct solar 2

Yea, you are right, I didn’t take the two extra seconds to think about it.

I think they simply became totally massless and is no longer affected by gravity.

Its okay and does the job, but learning to sharpen on a stone can be done in a spare afternoon with a youtube video and a 5 dollar diamond stone from ali. Your knives will thank you.

The 2 big problems with pull sharpeners is that they sharpen parallel to the blade, making the knife edge more brittle and they deepen defects in the blade, so if there are even tiny dents in the edge, the pull sharpeners will make them larger over time.

Etiquette is one of the things that really annoys-to-infuriates me. Especially if someone gets offended over me not following it. I just can’t be bothered thinking about arbitrary rules without any good merit behind them.

Now I am not talking common sense things where a behaviour might normally be considered offensive, but things like “ a man is supposed to verbally greet a woman first, while a handshake should be initiated by the woman if she wishes”.

Ive actually had this exact exchange with a superior (by standing, I wasnt actually working with/under them at the time):

Me: quietly walking past a superior about 2h after I have areived at work

Them, visibly and audibly annoyed: So I guess you dont greet people?

I just said good morning and said I don’t really keep track of who I have already met that day. But like come on, where is the disrespect if not projected from your own head?

I also hate the custom of wishing someone a good meal / good appetite. Like if it is 1x when everyone sits down, whatever, ill begrudgingly follow, but I cant be bothered to do it at work every 2 mins when someone new walks into the kitchen.

Why not just find a local print shop and order the design you want?

E: I don’t give a shit about the downvotes, but can someone answer the actual question?

oh, nevermind then, i missed the k

Meze planars cost a couple grand and IIRC they can run without an amp.

USB headphones is yet another product manufactured with a narrow usecase, the audio world by and large outputs to either 2.5, 3.5 or 4.4 every step of the way. USB is completely phone centric.

• Lack of a unified USB standard, meaning you will still have to deal with adapters to have compatibility across all devices. My PC for example only has USB A, my phone has lightning, my wifes has usbc, many peoples office PCs will also not have USB C just yet, although it does become less common to have a device without USB C.

• USB output is digital, that means that you need to convert it to analogue, so your headphones need to put a DAC into them or the wire.

• In many cases of headphone use you will actually not want the USB such as working with them in professional environments where you will be plugging them into an audio stack, where the autput is analogue already.

• Some headphones need an AMP so power straight off the USB is not an option.

• Balanced output.

A standard jack covers most usecases, headphones will never move to USB standard, they are analogue devices and should not have to have USB support on their end.

You don’t need a DAC if the phone has a jack, you only need one if it doesn’t, you might need a DAC/AMP for some headphones but most cans people will carry on the move will run just fine off an inbuilt jack.
