I’ve seen JBL Endurance wired earphones at my local big box store

That form factor is standard in the IEM / hi-res audio sector, I never got used to them.

Is this what you have?

What is your source? DAP, phone?

You can take a peak on here: https://crinacle.com/rankings/iems/ just to have an idea of brands and prices.

I used to take my Metroid II manual with me everywhere. I loved the drawings. I had the cover plastified at school too.

I got Ball X Pit yesterday. I’ve already spent more than 10 hours bouncing balls around. Addictive stuff…

I’m fine with this. If they want to try for an expanded cinematic universe, they can try. Fox and Samus and Kirby and Animal Crossing too. I don’t mind. I liked Star Fox quite a bit, so I guess I’m happy!

Of course he did. I think he used to joke about it, wasn’t that a thing? Or maybe it was his brother.

They do love their Cave games it seems.

No. An actual forum that has been around for ages.

Stephenson uses Substack? I really would have imagined him using something more bespoke or Ghost.

Nice. I saw the date announcement earlier today. Reboot is also discounted on Switch right now, but I will wait for the price to drop further.

Too bad, but I guess that’s what happens when a site is crowd-edited. Changing the genre might not be something people stop to change. Pragmata and Akimboy are just listed as a “Behind View” “Action” games. The filter uses AND operators which means that users would need to mark up games with all 3 tags to work that way.

Fun to see that 2D side scrollers are considered 3rd person by some users though!

In the genre filter you can add Platform and Action and Shooter

Ok. Thanks.

Hi. I just read the news like everyone else. Of course she was within her rights to spend money on luxury clothes and bags.

I feel like my comment has upset a few people. I am not cherry-picking like some right-wing car-heads tend to do. I live in France. I just wanted to state that Hidalgo is not without scandal.

In September, Mediapart (who do great work) published her expense claims from 2020 to 2024. It was reported by Libération and Le Point:

• €75,050.65 for clothing (the mandated amount is €19,720) including 2 Dior dresses for over €6000.
• €125,000 on trips

Dati… At some point Wikipedia will need to create a a separate page for her scandals!

Agreed. That was a good thing to target. What I’m saying is that living in France it is more common to hear criticism, except when talking about the obvious gains like keeping pollution down and making the city better for pedestrians and cyclists. The pollution part is great.

I’m all for a lot of the things that happened while she was mayor.

The embezzlement part was toward the end of a 10-year tenure so that ended things on a bad note. The gap between rich and poor widened and the misappropriation of funds have left certain parts of the city quite filthy… Taxes in general went up by 50% which is remarkable in France.

Anyway, I just wanted to comment that while it might not make the front page outside of France, calling Hidalgo “based” is something I don’t hear or read about.

Just money stuff. Debt increased so taxes were raised on things like parking. She was accused of embezzlement and it was discovered she spend something like 75000 on clothing over 3 or 4 years.

I live about an hour from Paris, so I didn’t follow it closely.

The last one was involved in some scandals, directly and indirectly.

Loved this one and the anime too.
