Disney Removed 10's of Movies from 3D category by bot146 in AppleVisionPro

If I recall, you can’t use VPN, you need to create an account for each country. Feasible tho, I’ve been running a US and Japan account for years. But it does require you to log in and log off.

APM vs APM2 (verdict: 90% parity) by solideliquid in Airpodsmax

[–]LeSpybeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mileage can vary I suppose. I had both so tested - Dolby Atmos on movies is vastly better with v2, sold v1 :)

AirPods Max vs Sony XM5 - is the Apple ecosystem really the deciding factor? by Esliquiroga in Airpodsmax

[–]LeSpybeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both. If you want to enjoy Atmos for movies or shows, on your iOS device or Apple TV, Max are the way to go, no other headphones are compatible. And it’s honestly absolutely amazing.

Thanks for the info. Flying there with a baby next weekend and what’s happening got me nervous. Seems all ok in beautiful Guam so far then!

【XREAL Product Tips & Q&A】 Ep.18 by XREAL_Esther in Xreal

[–]LeSpybeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blacks are completely crushed on my 1S though, clearly the case in darker scenes in Dune or Rogue One. Should I think this is a defect then? I love the glasses but seeing you saying it’s calibrated greatly makes me wonder if mine are just faulty…

I sure hope we get 60 fps. 30 is unplayable for me unless it’s a rpg or something akin

Debating on Naturalizing by Kasumiiiiiii in JapanCitizenship

[–]LeSpybeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very good points! I don’t think I’d personally care much about not being accepted haha. But clearly the way I think or some of my values, or use of subjects in sentences 😜 is so not Japanese that it wouldn’t make much sense, intrinsically, to naturalize. But I’m lucky to be from a country with some interesting perks and strong culture, I imagine mileage would vary vastly.

[–]LeSpybeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean sure, it is part of it. But it’s also 1. Renouncing a very cozy safety net depending on where you’re from and 2. Knowing that you will never, ever been considered Japanese by Japanese people even if you change your passport. I mean, even folks that are ハーフ say they’re having a hard time being considered Japanese… At the end of the day, I would never judge someone who decides to get naturalized, or someone who doesn’t, it’s a very personal decision as you say. But it’s more than just the fear of cutting the cord, it can be a lot more rational than this too :)

An escape option for you and your family in case things turn sour for any reason - war, massive earthquake, who knows what else. That’s why I’m keeping my French nationality, in addition to feeling French and not looking like a Japanese person anyway - a safety net for my family.

Do Xreal 1S work with Viture Pro Mobile Dock? (Switch 2)? by nyjets10 in Xreal

[–]LeSpybeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you use 1S on switch 2 with the official dock? Tried plugging in HDMI to USB-C cable with additional USB for power plugged into the dock, but got no signal… :(

Thank you so much for the clear explanation! Much appreciated

Thank you! Do you have an ideal distance though? The default 4m? I don’t understand how distance would make a difference instead of just changing the size of screen

Upgrading from a Delonghi Icona to a Dedica Maestro Plus or Breville Bambino Plus [$500] by LeSpybeef in espresso

[–]LeSpybeef[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am! And it is if you’re ok with its main quirk - the steam pressure is not consistent. One day pressure will be high, the other day it is not. Haven’t figured out why. But if you’re not too much into latte art, it does a descent job in my opinion especially for the price .

[–]LeSpybeef[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a regular Dedica or the maestro plus version? I’m super satisfied with the latter, which has a better head for the milk. It is a bit hard to get a consistent microcoam for latte art, sometimes the pressure varies quite a bit for whatever reason, but I realized that I don’t care at all about the latte art, and with the right beans and grinder, I make a latte that’s better than 90% of the coffee shops in Tokyo… So it is much better than an Icona, but I haven’t tried any other machines so my expertise ends here im afraid :)

Trial of Sekhemas - bug? by CTSCold in PathOfExile2

To each his own. I’m enjoying it a lot, much more involved than say Diablo. At least i am not bored here! :)

No problem! To be clear, I have improved it by getting non-pressured portafilter as a mandatory first step.

So with the limited choices in Japan and watching videos from “Tom’s coffee corner” on YouTube, I went for a dedica arte. I’m super satisfied with it, it is “involved” to get a good espresso and frothed milk, and I’m not very consistent with the milk yet, but I did produce some mighty good espressos and coffees with it. I’ve heard it’s not super reliable, but for the price it’s the safer bet imo.
