FireWire400@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's a popular game series that you just can't understand the hype for?English31·5 days agoAFAIK the first movie’s plot is exactly that, the cast of the anime realising how cruel Pokémon fights are, but they conveniently forget about it at the end.

Fight me.

FireWire400@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those?English11·19 days agoThanks, it’s always great to hear the details from some guy who knows his shit
FireWire400@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those?English1·19 days agoIn my experience, it’s still pretty hit or miss. The smaller indie labels tend to get it right more than the big names.
FireWire400@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those?English1·19 days agoI don’t think it’s actually a real term, but I kinda mean that it’s nostalgic to people who can’t really have nostalgia for it because they’re too young to have experienced it being the main music format.
FireWire400@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those?English4·19 days agoCassettes don’t sound too bad if you actually have good equipment, which most people nowadays don’t (because most can’t afford collector’s prices for decent decks). I was born in 97, vinyl records were long dead by then. Most people who get into vinyl nowadays actually grew up with iPods (hence the term “fake nostalgia”).
On a solid system, there’s a lot more fidelity in the bass on vinyl.
Eh… it’s pretty much all down to mastering, but vinyl records have a limited dynamic range compared to CDs which makes the bass more pronounced maybe? Not something I’ve noticed but I tend to prefer clear high end and mid range anyway.
FireWire400@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Taylor Swift’s new album comes in cassette. Who is buying those?English13·19 days agoAnother one of those pointless articles… Cassettes have been on the rise for a couple of years now, and for the same reasons that vinyl has been making a comeback; mainly fake nostalgia and the yearning for true ownership in form of physical media.
As a vinyl snob, listening to music on that medium isn’t better. The quality is at best a little worse than what you get from a CD, it’s inconvenient, bloody expensive and it takes up space.
BUT you get to actually hold the music you love in your hands and listen to it more intently, because you’ve made the effort of putting on a record instead of just pressing play. I like that.
Edit: just realised I just made the same points the article made… oh well. I’ll just continue archiving my CD collection. Not (only) for posterity, but as a big middle finger to the RIAA.

I actually like the rectangular design they had before
I’m actually glad I ordered the 2 Duo, not at all fond of this new design.

Happy cake day, though
