I make websites, sometimes apps, hypothetically games at some point. I have strong opinions about UX. Posting about Linux and Apple platforms, video games, tech in general. French and stubborn.

@cdf1982@iosdev.space (The new Tori Amos album that came out yesterday is great by the way, I've just listened to it three times ^^)

@cdf1982@iosdev.space It doesn't quite feel the same (possibly because the whole ear 'feels' the vibration in over-ear headphones) but it's actually a lot easier to produce loud and precise bass with in-ears than big headphones

@cdf1982@iosdev.space Oh, still? I found a graph where the shape (unlike the Pro and Pro 2) was very similar to the AirPods Max, which were great when I tested them. It might depend on fit though

@cdf1982@iosdev.space Ooh those frequency response curves look pretty. (I had been thoroughly let down by the bass when I checked out a friend's first-generation)

@fabienmarry Fair, at this point it's becoming impossible to boycott *everything all the time* :)

@fabienmarry (Really just checking, I don't care strongly, it's just been funny seeing Kagi's "translations” shared a bunch of times on my timeline even though most people are hostile to LLMs.)

@fabienmarry You know that's clearly LLM-powered right? ^^

@Cykelero Can you override any user default per-app? I could see it being fun to have some apps in high-contrast mode. Or even dark mode, though that's more of a dynamic setting so maybe it's handled differently

@Cykelero I would never have thought that was possible 😲

@fabienmarry That's why it only has 8GB of RAM though
