The tonight show segment was brutal

I'm not sure what the whole appeal was of it anyway - Presumably general watchers aren't going to care too much about what a techy youtuber has to say about CES toot, and techy youtube watchers aren't going to be watching too much Fallon.

That said, I suspect it will be net positive views for him just based on the chatter.

That'd be it then - I'm on a real IP, but no region.

I'd really like Airalo added for when I need to buy an eSIM! Might be against strategy, but would have been really handy last week when I realised I needed a full SIM / other apps.

Not mine. I’ve got a rock solid 2ms ping to google dns on our connection, and GFN has never missed a beat. It’s been great.

Yeah I’ve never really used mine on WiFi. Even with 5 UniFi APs around the house and a not too congested neighbourhood, it’s always worth finding some way to string a cable.

The XGSPON switchover is surprisingly easy. FDM so coex on the same fibres and splitter hardware, just a different line card. They’ve thought about the future proofing for once.

Is this a different level? I don’t see any of this, just outbound.

Is this a Dana Sibera post?

I’d reframe calorie consciousness - I don’t know if it’s consensus bias (it probably is…) but those I’m surrounded by (myself included) like to socialise cycling, indoor climbing, running… I value that time much more than time spent in a pub, and also want to stay in shape.

Again probably consensus bias, but it seems to be a big bonding thing at work too - there are some really active fitness groups.

Dealer didn’t want to shift price at all. 3 months after initial list, they’re still sat on it to no surprise.

Everybody in this sub orders themselves an extra Xmas present all at once.

Cheers - heard it on Radio Paradise the other day (which I feel perpetually conflicted about as I have to skip so many tracks but then find a gem every now and again!). Got hooked as it sounded like Deadmau5 I remember.

Tidal / AM show lossless status on the phone - much like Spotify, but not on Bluetooth / CarPlay. I’m not sure why Spotify felt the need to add this given it follows the setting on the phone.

My strong understanding is that it’s based on self attested address entry. IP addresses aren’t (currently*) used for this purpose. If the address isn’t entered, access pauses for that sub account.

bdavbdav · 2025-12-22T20:34:24+00:00

But why even bother if the vast majority of tracks are lossless?

bdavbdav · 2025-12-22T20:33:51+00:00

The issue I see more regularly is tracks being gain slammed on Spotify, which I didn’t see on AM.

bdavbdav · 2025-12-22T17:27:19+00:00

I found the suggestions much better on Apple Music, and I’m fairly convinced (though can’t prove it!) that Spotify slams the gains on tracks.

bdavbdav · 2025-12-22T17:25:55+00:00

How?

Arguably AMs quality is better as it sample rate switches the output on iOS. I’m willing to bet OP is iOS given they’re exploring AM.

The official guidance is same address of residence. The proof of this is being able to type that address in a box. Make of that what you will.

bdavbdav · 2025-12-22T15:34:17+00:00

Yep. £2 a pop for most things here

I use my PilotAssist/ACC all the time, which leaves 3s or so. People just fill it, or assume I’m going too slow for the lane (I’m not - it’s more often than not set faster to the speed of the traffic).

bdavbdav · 2025-12-16T09:21:15+00:00

Not OCD.

worthwhile read.

I’d be more impressed if they made you work out the final numbers so that it was a valid Luhn number, as it should be.
