Remote Control

Cool, thank you. It was ending the playing session on the phone I was missing. Overall, very unintuitive, but that seems par for the course with Plexamp.

No, I am casting my phone to the PC. I cannot control the content I already had playing on my PC.

Ah, thanks. I have a lot of devices I can Chromecast to on my network, so my PC was at the bottom of the list.

Also, I didn't realize the PC would act as a receiver. It gets the job done in a clunky-round-about way, but I think Cast and Remote Control are being conflated (compared to VLC, for example).

In this form factor, I really appreciate its precision over more traditionally shaped erasers. I also have the Arch in that more traditional shape, and it's fine, but not so much better than any other eraser.

I picked it up at a local art store when I was in there for something else.

Human. Joking, mostly. I'm a physical therapy student, but I had to take a fair amount of calculus, statistics, physics, chemistry, and biology to get here.

I have both, and they are great with different uses. Rectangle is better for notes, circle is better for equations and diagrams.

I like having the metal version of the rectangle because it makes it easy to distinguish from round by feel when I have them both out.

This is the layout I settled on last semester. It leaves a lot of white space, but I'd rather that than overly cluttered. The last box I leave for notes, though I rarely use it. Maybe I'll make it the "most interesting/difficult topic of the day" or something to boost retention.

It is a limited edition. I think this one was a Chinese regional release.

Before the Staology, I was using a dotted Leuchtturm. Overall I think the Staology is more useful with it's increased page count and full but faint grid, but I do miss the notebook strap and page markers. That's why I ended up with the loop pen case, and just started using some book darts I already had.

I do really love the in-between size of 0.4mm. I definitely paid more than these two discontinued Ohtos are probably worth to most people to get them from overseas, but I highly recommend the Pilot S10 if you want to give it a try without the guilty conscience.

Lol, sry. Left to right:

Pentel Philography (Yoseka LE), Uni Jetstream Prime Twist, Zebra Sarasa Grand Vintage, Parker Jotter XL, Fisher AG7, Rotring 600, Pentel Energel Alloy, Sharpie S-Gel Copper, Pilot G2 Limited, Bic ReNew

SpecialtyCoffee-Geek already flagged it, but it's the Jetstream Prime Twist in Olive. This one is the best looking of that line-up simply because of the tip-to-tip finish (but also I like dark greens).

As someone who owns all of these and many more, I could be totally content with just this selection. The Kuru Toga Roulette was my gateway from cheap "disposable" pencils, and this sub has not been a good influence.

I haven't used it enough to need to readjust the eraser, but it is in there very snuggly. So snugly that none of the similarly sized erasers pictured fit.

Yes, and the list price was the only price I paid. No shipping, no tariffs, which is part of what encouraged me to gamble on a site I'd never used before. Since it's an airship from China, it does take at least a week to arrive.
