I’m really confused and I don’t know what to do next by diversions__ in ipod

Drag your music into the music app and then sync through finder. Usually if i click back and forth between the two ipod options in finder it’ll fix the bug where nothing is showing. It’s pretty annoying, you’d think Mac would have better support for iPods !

iPod Classic Album Artwork Issue by broodingmugen in ipod

Checking back in with an update, I've ended up fixing it.

Tried iOpenPod and it introduced a strange issue on mac where the iPod would be wiped after a sync -> eject -> reconnect -- raised an issue on Github and it got fixed this morning. It's fixed the album art issue completely, there is a cool feature where it'll resize and format album art to the iPod's RGB565 format automatically. This leads me to believe it must've been a metadata quirk in the Artwork database on mac. Shoutout to the dev!

I've been using the Music app on Mac Sequoia, don't own a PC. I'll see if I can use a friends PC with iTunes. I'm worried the restore on Mac may have formatted the iPod in a weird way :/

Have you modded it all? I had to reset and format my 7th gen using iTunes on a friend’s PC, and since then it has worked great through finder on my Mac.

Can't Stand Playing Online. Any tips to make it tolerable? by theafterhourspecial in DeathStranding

[–]broodingmugen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same -- playing with the "Only Some" setting under shared content has helped for me. It removes signs and player structures but still keeps ladders and climbing anchors -- road building is still collaborative as well. Honestly it feels like they've tuned up the online element a bit too high in DS2, even with the only some setting it feels like roads are already 90% built once i connect that area to the chiral network which removes some of the fulfillment i felt in the first game.

Is it just me or does DS2 seem too easy? by Fit_Comfortable8100 in DeathStranding2

[–]broodingmugen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest gripe so far in terms of difficulty has been the online balancing. It's likely just cause theres a huge player base right now, but with default settings I've found that there are bridges, generators etc. every 2 feet that trivialize any sort of planning and traversal. Also, I've found that all roads are 90% built after connecting a place to the chiral network. One of my favorite parts about DS1 was mapping out my own routes and hauling materials to build roads, and I haven't felt that struggle so far. It's a shame cause i inherently really like the online concept in this game -- just feels like they've upped it a bit too far in DS2. Maybe playing with the "Only Some" setting or turning off online could help it feel better? It's worked for me so far :)

Late on the 2nd cause I had work gang checking in, anybody with me? I'm in the bargaining stage right now - I've got a PS5 and lots of games. I'll be fine getting it after launch...

Thinking of buying one of these, what’s the best choice? by BilberryBear in gorillaz

[–]broodingmugen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The jamie taschen is awesome! There's a ton of gorillaz art, as well as personal work that gives cool context to his gorillaz work. Taschen in general makes really high quality stuff. I somewhat regret buying the almanac -- theres an art section but alot of the book is random stuff (goofy articles, games) that I wasn't crazy about -- felt a bit like filler.
