  Very few things in tech make me as upset as the whole concept of KNX. Yes, let's hardwire all the "smarts" in the house and make it so even something as simple as replacing a light switch requires either paying multiple hundred Euros for a physical license key for a software that only runs on Windows or calling an electrician who already owns said license. Let's also call it "open standard" because it's open for any COMPANY to implement (after paying the necessary...

  I rarely read posts behind a CW, so it took me way too long to realise "mh" was "mental health" and not "Monster Hunter".

  Nose blocked? Just have your breakfast with a large dollop of Carolina Reaper hot sauce. You will certainly not regret having your breakfast with a large dollop of Carolina Reaper hot sauce.

  Brasileiros que habitam o velho continente: se um dia bater aquela saudade do Brasil mas uma viagem pra lá não for viável, considerem visitar a Grécia. Tirando o idioma, o resto é tão parecido que chega a ser estranho.

  I love this tablet. #PJSK #ProjectSEKAI

  Fire Force transitioning so smoothly into Soul Eater was not something I was expecting, and it made me quite happy for some reason. I was certain they would do the lazy kind of ending where interpretation is up to the viewer and a lot is left unresolved. But no, they showed how the world came to be, the Shinigami being willed into existence, the main cast from Soul Eater as kids. It was very satisfying.

  I started a personal project a while ago, and then the worst possible thing happened: I got it to a state that is very buggy but still kinda does what I need it to do, so now I have learned to live with the bugs and have zero motivation to fix it.

  iPad arrived today! Gotta hand it to Tim Apple, the hardware is solid and feels very premium even though it's the absolute cheapest model. On the other hand, coming from Android, iOS feels like a huge trainwreck. UX is a fuck. How do I navigate this shit efficiently? Why is the back button all the way at the top?! It feels kinda like trying to use vanilla Gnome, without installing the 20 extensions that make it actually usable.

  Where's rhythm game Fedi at? Given the amount of weir- I mean, neuro-divergent people on this network, it's surprising how I never see rhythm games being mentioned at all. I would have expected it to be something like Sonic the Hedgehog or efficient public transportation.

  I wish Opus was a Bluetooth codec.

  FINALLY did the ReplayGain calculation thing on my music library and refreshed the cache in Symfonium. The volumes were all over the place.

  Oh yeah, another thing that arrived yesterday is a pair of KZ Duonic IEMs. I'm loving them so far, they're nearly as "bassy" as the Decet, but way more clear in the other frequencies. Also physically lighter and more comfortable to wear.

  WTF since when does the Pixel 10 have a desktop mode? I connected it to my docking station to charge yesterday and for the first time it offered me "mirrorred mode" as usual, but also "desktop". Posting this from a windowed Moshidon on a 24" display.

  The difference in user treatment: Google Photos: Hey, would you like to backup your photos with us? You get 15GB of storage, but you can enable this option to slightly compress your media and save some space. iCloud: Listen up dumb bitch, we already uploaded all your shit without asking because you can’t possibly be trusted. Oh, and if you want more than 5GB, pony up!

  My complaints about iOS aside, holy shit, look at me not dropping that combo until the very end! #PJSK #ProjectSEKAI

  The remote for our Japanese-style toilet seat has a button labelled "Turbo Wash", which I just assumed was something to clean your butt faster or something. Today I got curious and looked it up: "Turbo Wash (...) helps with constipation relief by spraying out a narrow stream of water that will enter the rectum and makes it more comfortable and easier to release the waste." IT'S A FUCKING ENEMA MACHINE I'm glad I looked it up before curiosity...

  Got some meme IEMs from AliExpress expecting to be disappointed, but considering how good they sound, I might as well have stolen them! Holy shit...

  So called "audiophiles" are fucking weird. It's a well established fact there's no point converting from a lossy format to a lossless one, yet people waste 2GB+ to rip a shitty vinyl as 24bit FLAC. Vinyl, the most inconvenient medium, the thing that degrades over time and is full of "cracks" and "pops". "Oh but the warmth and fidelity and..." Fuck off, I don't want sand in my music. Fidelity should...
