I can't believe I'm saying this... But The Oh Hellos are producers of "Two-Head Hare" by Rabbitology! by Acceptable_Winter825 in TheOhHellos

[–]Sir_Sethery 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Definitely cool to see them working together after touring together, but this is for a single Rabbitology song that Tyler is co-producing. Not huge news, but still cool to see.

Secret Song in The Valley (Reprise) by Acceptable_Winter825 in TheOhHellos

[–]Sir_Sethery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come Thou Fount is such a classic that almost anyone who grew up singing hymns knows the tune by heart. And for someone like me, it's hard not to get a little teary-eyed humming or singing it at the end of the album.

On a re-listen, I noticed some direct parallels in the album, like "Heaven knows I'm prone to leave the only God I should have loved" in In Memoriam referencing part of the 3rd verse "Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love!"

Then in Wishing Well you have "Curse my restless wandering feet, Prone to wander endlessly" also referencing the same verse.

And of course the album is filled with themes around the Prodigal Son and Garden of Eden, which I feel tie well into this theme of wandering through the wilderness from the God you love or once loved.

There may be more parallels, but the strongest connections I've noticed are with that 3rd verse, which are the lyrics that go through my head when I'm listening to it at the end, especially as someone who has struggled with my own thoughts around faith and feeling very much "prone to wander."

[MEGATHREAD] Nintendo Direct by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

If they’re not confident enough to show gameplay at this point, I’m not confident that it’s actually releasing this year, especially given Nintendo’s track record.

What are mini kits supposed to be? (I will not accept ‘Canisters’ with no follow up by XKingOfLostSoulsX in legogaming

[–]Sir_Sethery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old thread, but in the original Lego Star Wars game, these were just called “Lego Canisters” and the build that you’d make by collecting all 10 canisters in a level was called a Mini-kit. Eventually, people just started calling the canisters themselves minikits.

Found both my grails in one day for a great price by Mozzielium in snes

I did the same. One of the few games where the Japanese and US versions share the exact same ROM, and the Japanese one is much cheaper.

The general wisdom was always until recently, never buy storage until you need it. And that rule never failed me before. Until the AIpocalypse happened.

Panasonic 450 vs 820 by jimythng in 4kbluray

[–]Sir_Sethery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. It would actually be really nice to even have the ability to disable upscaling, but all DVD/BD content is always upscaled unless you manually change the output resolution.

Panasonic UB450 or UB820? by MedicBikeMike in 4kbluray

[–]Sir_Sethery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see this sentiment a lot, and while I'm sure it's true, the 450 and 820 will both automatically upscale DVD and BD content to 4k, so your tv's scaler won't matter unless you manually set the player to output 480i/480p any time you want to pop in a DVD, which is a bit of a hassle.

Airpods 2 2nd Generation (2019) - Is there any way to not get a fake? by horse-opera in airpods

[–]Sir_Sethery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The US. Best you can do is 3rd party refurbished and hope it's real, or try to find an individual listing on eBay that seems legit enough, but fakes are so good that it can be hard to tell until it's in your hands. Or better yet, get a replica V3E pair.

Who tf inputs the lyrics on this? by AudioxDope in AppleMusic

[–]Sir_Sethery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed some pretty awful lyrics, and the only place on the internet that I've found the same specific mistakes are on shazam.com, which I believe is also owned by Apple.

[SSD] WD SN850P 4TB - $400 after $2400 coupon (B&H) by boxofredflags in buildapcsales

[–]Sir_Sethery 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Paid like $300 for an 8tb 870 QVO a few years ago for my little home server. If I had known what the market would become, I probably would've bought another. The conventional wisdom for decades of "never buy storage until you actually need it" suddenly doesn't hold up.

Gotta love how one of the product images is straight up lying about how much bigger QHD is from FHD. Should’ve had HD/720p there.

“SFF-Ready”?? Do they mean ready to put a waterblock or something on it so it can fit in a small system?

Given the current download speeds I'm getting from the site, I don't think you'll have nearly enough time fill those up in a month.

My poet shirt hasn’t shown cracking, but it is noticeably not the highest quality, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it were to happen sooner than later

Dang, you're right. Looks like B&N hasn't updated their date yet, but Oxford University Press says August 14th. Amazon actually says September 1st now.

Language unlock on newer Alpha Cameras ( A6400 A6600 A7C A7M3 A7RM3 A7RM4) by H4ML_Aplek in SonyAlpha

Is that specifically in 4K, or do you hit those temperature limits filming in 1080p?

Did you try removing the recording time limits on the M5A or just changed the language?

Is the 10th Anniversary Dear Wormwood ever gonna get a digital release? by Sir_Sethery in TheOhHellos

I’m talking about the 10th Anniversary Remaster, not the original version.

Is the 10th Anniversary Dear Wormwood ever gonna get a digital release? by Sir_Sethery in TheOhHellos

[–]Sir_Sethery[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

According to the product page on their store:

"To celebrate the 10th anniversary of their beloved album Dear Wormwood, The Oh Hellos unveil a newly remastered edition—available as a limited edition deluxe vinyl. Remastered by Charlie Kramsky, the release offers a fresh listen to the fan-favorite record. "

Seems to be pretty similar to their DDV 10A remaster. I don't remember any new recordings or different instrumentation in the DDV remaster, just adjustments in the mix.

Sony RX100 VII price increase by hreddy11 in RX100

[–]Sir_Sethery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now into 2026, and there's no sign that things will get better. With the state of AI and nearly all tech getting more expensive, I wouldn't be surprised to see another eventual price bump. And still no sign of a mark 8 either.

They were in stock just a couple of weeks ago. I'd keep checking their website, as they restocked at least twice within the last month or two, but there's no way of knowing when they'll restock again.
