Magnetic Rose is amazing man.
Yes. That would be it.
I haven't seen anyone mention it but The Man From Earth is fantastic. It's literally just about a guy saying goodbye to his friends and telling an unbelievable story. There aren't any flashbacks or visuals illustrating the story. Just him talking and their reactions but it's so well written that it really draws you in.
Granted it's not horror but more people should see this gem
Yea I also lived in China for 3 years while doing my masters and OP clearly doesn't know what he's talking about. Everywhere takes cards and cash in addition to the digital payments. And no service I used was digital only.
Edit: The only requirement I encountered was a local phone number. Not a smartphone.
Gattaca (1997) - Sure it has a relatively high IMDB score but no one I know has seen it and I always recommend it when I can.
If you're looking for rock/metal then en.metal-tracker.com usually has lots of flac rips.
This was my primary driver as well. I just want all my music easily accessible.
Uses the latest tech in linux e.g wayland and pipewire.
Fedora
- it's up to date
- little to no bloat
- stock gnome shell
- uses latest technologies
- just works
Man if I had an LG phone with Quad DAC I'm pretty sure I wouldn't need a DAP either. I agree with the pricing though. Most modern DAPs are ridiculously expensive for what they do. But they're not the only option available. The one I got was only $123
The adoption of Hi-Res tracks on mainstream streaming services is a good sign at least. But from what I've read, it all boils down to people having a harder time recognizing higher quality audio. It's easy to see the difference between an sd video and a 1080p one. Many people don't get exposed to good headphones and speakers either. You can't recognize a difference if you never hear it. Ignorance is bliss as they say.
I have a BTR5 and it is indeed good at what it does. I just don't get the same satisfaction from it as plugging into a headphone jack. The DAP is still fairly new so I'll see if it still appeals to me down the line.
What's your opinion on DAPs?
Just recently got this Hifi Walker H2 and so far I like it. Stock UI was trash but Rockbox solved that issue. At first I was skeptical of needing a dap with how good phones are these days but I'm satisfied. This thing sounds so good and is powerful enough to make my 6XX sing. Plus the customization of rockbox really appeals to my tinkering side.
So what do you guys think about DAPs? Do you prefer one to other music solutions or do you not see the appeal?
The Fifth science by Exurb1a. It's a collection of short stories in a shared universe. Love it so far. Author has a good youtube channel if you're into that.
Been using Silverblue for a few months now. Has its quirks but overall quite satisfied. Haven't had anything happen that made me wanna switch.
