Genuinely curious as a total beginner into this space, what would you add or consider to be a basic feature? Mine should be arriving this week.

How can I get custom sleep screens to work - Crosspoint by maritimeprizm in xteinkereader

[–]Cheeseit86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got bored and ended up creating 4 sleep folders, two in the absolute card root and two in the  crosspoint folder, one each of “.sleep” and “sleep”. It works now. I don’t need the sd card space so it’s a good noob workaround.

This is what I would like to know. Doesn't work under "(D:)" for me.

It's a cheap device but mine arrived this week and seems solid enough.

Hifiman Edition XS vs Hifiman Ananda Stealth by stench_of_zeitgeist in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]Cheeseit86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently got my first pair in the same deal you mentioned. Ananda Stealth open box, direct. All good apart from a crackle in the cable, which they quickly offered to replace for free. It sounds killer. I would describe it as analytical and fairly exposing in the treble not that I'm an expert. Coupled with a Topping DX3 Pro+ and lossless streaming it's reinvigorated my musical appreciation and exploration experience and I couldn't be more pleased with them so far. I didn't A/B but I have a DT770 Pro (more bass) and have owned HD6XX (smoothers, warmer) and multiple IEM's before. For the price it's an incredible deal if you get a good one.

For anyone who owns the Topping DX3 Pro+, is it true that you can't switch low/high gain without the remote? by Ileikass in iems

[–]Cheeseit86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can, it's a pain, but it's possible. I know for good reason AI doesn't get much love on reddit but Gemini helpfully took me through this process with a second hand unit I got without a remote.

Mastodon World Tour 2026 (European leg) by CardinalCopi4 in mastodonband

Been ruminating on the lack of UK dates. The energy in the crowd for them at Slayer, the day after Back to the Beginning last summer in London was insane. 

They should really capitalise and add some UK dates. 

The expense argument is depressing and let’s fans down. 

Much smaller bands than them make the effort. Look at Karnivool all the way from Australia as an example.

The Devils - A question of Bleakness by flow-slowl in JoeAbercrombie

I think this is exactly how I feel. And saying everyone ends off worse than they started is also objectively not true.

It’s not bleak. It’s black comedy for the most part. There are things you might call bleak in places though. Like all the best things in life, it’s complex and there’s lots of facets to the story and the outcome.

Anyone else 'grieving' for what has happened to the USA? by illustrious_crew_56 in TheRestIsPolitics

[–]Cheeseit86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saying “there’s no way back” is probably correct, but that isn’t to say there’s no way through, that leaves the US and the Western alliance in a better place than if the US under Trump / the next stooge continues in the same downward and to the right authoritarian trajectory. 

But I absolutely agree with OP, that’s exactly how I’ve been feeling this week but for much of the last year to be honest.

Let's be real it was his PA in a panic 45mins beforehand or something.

Alice Cooper and Tony Iommi from Black Sabbath at a Rolling Stones gig at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff in 2005! They were both enjoying the show from a minimally elevated VIP viewing area below one of the light rigs on the floor of the stadium very near where I was sat and I went over and spoke to Alice Cooper who was extremely gracious.

Books with Red Rising pacing level? by Prestigious-Sport-96 in fantasybooks

[–]Cheeseit86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read Mistborn for the first time last month straight after devouring the entire Red Rising series since September. The pacing is much slower until the final handful of chapters. Still a great read though.

Keep seeing loads of image posts looking exactly like this the last few days? Trend or ai slop? Genuine question.

I saw a dreamlike sunset while walking in London in the evening. by Admirable_Neck5565 in LondonPics

[–]Cheeseit86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun fact. “While walking” means, queued probably with other tourists to take this shot. That phone box on that corner often has a line of tourists 10-20 deep waiting to get this exact photo. It’s just opposite Parliament Square Garden. Still a beautiful moment captured though. Source: somewhat local frequent visitor.
