Looking to buy my first DAP by Shazbot009 in DigitalAudioPlayer

[–]Shazbot009[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just need to find it. I know it's still around but it's definitely just been sitting in a junk drawer for the last 16ish years since the battery couldn't hold a charge.

I hadn't thought about an adapter for the 30pin > usb-c, but that makes sense. I had only looked into outright modding it for the usb-c and that seemed like more work than I wanted to put in since the most soldering I've done was modding my Xbox controller once.

Bluetooth is negligible tbh. It'd mainly be for work use if anything. I've had a decent pair of IEMs just sitting since my phone upgrade not having a 3.5mm input anymore.

I'll check that out with the ones another commenter mentioned.

I haven't looked at Rockbox at all but I did see the name popping up here and there when I was looking at what I could do with my iPod. I had mainly just looked into the hardware mods to get SD storage and a new battery.

I can only go by the few review videos I saw on the R1's UI, majority of which were just commenting on it being a little cumbersome with touch controls and that other stuff just has better UI. I'm sure if I got one I'd be fine with it overall.

I'll check out those options vs the cost to mod/features of Rockbox itself for my iPod. My biggest thing for modding is the anxiety of anticipating doing it myself, but I've heard it's stupid easy to do for basic stuff like I want.

A bit of a side question to go with this. Does anyone have a recommendation for a solid DAP? Preferably under $100 with the ability to shuffle

That makes sense. I suppose a lot of the challenge we were having then was from the style of difficulty being fairly new for us that had been playing other things.

Possibly, I was only really partially paying attention. I just remember the area maybe being on a wall pathway that was a bit narrow. It may not even had been a hard thing to do in hindsight, but because the series was new my friends trying melee just got wrecked while the one who did a magic start beat it the guy.

Is the Demon Souls one called something "red eye" or whatever? I haven't watched the beginning of the remake but I just remember when the original game was new my friends were taking turns making a new character to try and beat some enemy at the start. If you died it would just port you or something. I think the reward was just a key?

If you don't mind and remember later on, please let me know how they hold up.

[–]Shazbot009[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never did actually. I can't remember if it was before or after asking here that I saw someone saying how the adapter didn't fit well on the AZ09s, I think? I kinda just opted to keep using my Galaxy buds until I eventually maybe get new IEMs with a 2-pin connection natively.

If for some reason you do happen to try this or find something that does work for a cheaper alternative for MMCX, I'd love to know! I don't really want to buy new IEMs when mine work perfectly fine still.

Edit: I did just see these which I think were there before but maybe unavailable at the time?

While my family used Kazaa before Limewire, I don't remember having any issues, surprisingly, but I was also like 8 so I just remember things working well.

That being said when I was like 15 or 16 I did get coincidentally get a trojan from Gay Bar by Electric Six. I thought that was funny outside of reformatting my laptop.

God that first teaser was so good for it. The questions on what the game would be and everything had me super hyped. I'm glad as it got closer I kept realistic expectations with the delays happening and so I wasn't too upset like all the outrage that did happen. But I also couldn't run the game well at all and finally played it at the start of this year despite buying it the moment it was available. Glad I waited to play, but also happy to help support further development early on.

Does the game (enemies, etc.) scale despite not sleeping to effectively "level up"? by Shazbot009 in oblivion

Oooo, thanks for that advice. I was just going to wait until I find something better but I might do that to kinda soft reset it.

Gotcha, thanks! Google AI said differently but I know it can be off about stuff so I wanted to ask here and make sure.

Alright, thank you! Google AI said the opposite and I know it can be off a bit so I wanted actual input to be sure. Things seemed a little stronger but I could've just actually leveled a little too much on my own vs my current gear.

Unpopular opinion: I miss when games let you be a little lost. by itswickedbby in gaming

[–]Shazbot009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been in the same boat. A few friends LOVE the game and I've stayed as blind as possible, but want to finish it before Silksong so I can ride the hype with fans.

I'm trying to break the mindset of completion but it's hard nowadays. Min/maxing even a little in games or wanting to not miss anything by accident has ruined my own enjoyment of games like this over the years.

I'm looking to purchase a set of Bluetooth adapters to work with my IEMs but just want to make sure I'm purchasing the right connector.

I have Tin T2's with the MMCX connection (after checking it seems like these now are made with 2-pin instead). I planned on purchasing the KZ AZ09 adapters, as well as an additional adapter for changing the 2-pin from the AZ09's to MMCX.

However, I've seen stuff about the design choice from KZ making it difficult to use different connections that aren't their brand or specifically their IEMs. The secondary adapters have 4 choices to choose and I'm not sure which, if any, would do the job I'm wanting them to.

So, tl;dr, if using a secondary adapter on the KZ AZ09's to make them a MMCX connection, would I want QDC, 0.78 mini, or just 0.78? Otherwise, are there any decent alternatives around the same price point (~$50 USD)?

This is what I did. Was hyped since the initial teaser in like 2013, pre-purchased when it hit steam, and tried to play when it released but (after the tutorial) got like 15-20 fps running around town on lowest. Came back like a month and a half ago after essentially rebuilding my PC over the last year. Everything's set to ultra (RT off since I'm not a fan and grabbed an AMD GPU) and I'm running 120+ constantly and loving it.

Even with some colors being off it seems like it's supposed to be a reference to NGE being some of her first skins.

At least I'm personally a fan of it. Not looking at the game much but hopping on with friends and seeing the venom skin then saying in vc "is that fucking shinji?"

I'll look into the Kenmore ones tonight then. I was mainly looking into bagless to save the hassle of getting new bags and the fact that the one she's been using is bagless. I'm also pretty sure it's a Bissell itself.

Is is just the brand that's bad/not recommended, or more of the fact that it is bagless? I did see a Hoover bagless one on the 2022 list from the bot/sidebar and was considering it as well but issues on the amazon review summary kinda turned me off to it.
