Fair enough! If you rewatch the 97 anime and want more, Berserk’s a pretty cool comic/manga to try. I feel like it reads pretty fast.

The comic is pretty great, if you haven’t already read it!

I’m not sure if it’s just because I’m working on the original Thrawn trilogy right now, but “wife guy Han Solo” is seared into my brain

What if Luigi was a like Shadow is

Hell yeah, fancy Neverwinter Nights!

There’s always Legend of the Galactic Heroes

Obviously, the live read ads by the podcast hosts will still be there, but yep, the other ads are all usually targeted ones inserted when you download it. Once it’s downloaded, you can change your VPN back to wherever so you don’t have to deal with every site defaulting to Thai or Japanese lol.

This works better than the “skip x seconds” idea others have since some podcasts have mid-show ads, too.

If it’s one of the podcasts that uses a service to auto-insert ads, you can always change your VPN to a country that wouldn’t be relevant and it’ll usually download without ads. It almost always works if I set mine to Japan or Thailand.

What’s the best way to compress mp3 files but still retain the quality (even possible)?

If you’re not starting from a lossless format (like FLAC), you shouldn’t really be compressing anything. When compressing from a lossless format to MP3, it’s totally subjective. When I was more into ripping CDs, I’d do V0 or 320 - there’s probably plenty of internet arguments by people more knowledgeable than me if you need a breakdown in different MP3 compressions.

I’ve used Kotatsu. It’s pretty good for all kinds of comics (not just Japanese manga).

You can download chapters while on WiFi and read without using data.

I’d compare PF: WotR more with the old Baldur’s Gate and Neverwinter Nights games, tbh

Is that an I/O shield for a motherboard?

Seconding Elden Ring. It’s also going to be more active since people are hyped for the new content - which means you’re more likely to get help if you need it.

It has a handful of QoL features too that’ll make the learning curve more manageable

Yeah, and not even a simplified version like the Final Fantasy 15 for the Nintendo Switch. Probably just going to be a half assed thing.

I guess it’s cool that some people may be able to play the game when they wouldn’t otherwise, but yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up being shit.
