  • If I'm not mistaken, Rogue One also did. Kyle Katern was the one who got the death star plans I believe, which Rogue One retconned

  • I'm on openSUSE Tumbleweed using KDE Wayland

    Sometimes my session will freeze up and I have to switch to tty and back to the GUI session to fix it.

    I run a windows VM through winboat and it works well enough but it is particularly jank in regards to having multiple or even just 1 program open at times.

    Every time I mount a veracrypt drive, baloorunner starts eating up my memory until I run out and I might have to hard reboot

  • What's an album with a completely unique sound

    Jump

  • This is one of my favorite albums ever.

    If anyone was wondering, I believe nearly the whole album is made up of samples.

    The Avalanches have a ton of other stuff. If you are a fan of Since I Left You, definitely check out the Gimix version which starts similar but has a lot of different tracks in it (including much more famous songs) https://youtu.be/X7i8bIhJY8c

  • I remember rooting my Nook Color (android tablet) way back in the day and one of the things you could do was reduce the brightness below what was normally allowed, all the way to you legit can't see.

    Now that I think about it, I remember you could do this with custom firmware on the 3DS too.

    I think they leave the minimum high enough to avoid the risk of someone putting it so low that they can't figure out how to get it back up.

  • Glad you like it! I'm curious which singer you are referring to since as far as I know all the vocals in Carpenter Brut songs are via collaboration.

    Some other of my favourite songs from him:

    • The Good Old Call
    • Vances De 87 (Carpenter Brut Remix)
    • Lipstick Masquerade
    • MANIAC
    • Looking for Tracy Tzu

    Listen to the first song in Trilogy, "Escape from Midwich valley". It starts out like of slow but the end perfectly sets up the rest of the album as very heavy synth

    Be careful driving while listening to CB, driving under the speed limit may be an effort in futility while you listen!

    Also, if you listen to Leather Terror, there's 2 songs in there that have to be played back to back and its unbelievably hard. That would be Day Stalker and Night Prowler. Try listening to them back to back. Night Prowler starts extremely heavy

  • Might be able to work something together with TDARR and maybe Syncthing or something to handle the file transportation

  • Synth metal is right up my alley and I'd call Carpenter Brut the king of it.

    Few tracks I'd recommend in particular:

    • Hairspray Hurricane
    • Turbo Killer
    • Le Perv

    There's way more than that but that's a good start. Of his albums, Trilogy is more synth, Leather Teeth is middle, and Leather Terror is more metal, but all of them go extremely hard

  • I have a Samsung fold 3 that I've been using since launch. Never had any issues with it and don't use it with a case either. The inner screen is not cracked or missing anything but there is a visible crease, and the inner screen protector came off naturally a long time ago

  • Qobuz reveals how much it really pays per stream, and I want to see more of this transparency to help us spend money more ethically

    Jump

  • I of course have a premium account, but anyway I logged into QBDLX (software for downloading from qobuz) which generates log files that contain everything you need to use Qobuz with strawberry. It's too bad qbdlx can't playback, and strawberry can't download, so I use both

  • I used to live in Japan and making onigiri is one of the things that's stuck with me the most, they're really easy to make in large batches and last a while and they're so delicious
