I have it loaded on my iPad but have never taken the time to dive in. It was good to fully get my hands dirty editing samples and tweaking the sound to what I like and not just loading the .wav on a pad and calling it a day.

How are you managing loading samples back and forth from your main computer to your Koala app?

At the same, does “painting our selfs into a corner” loose having true ending to stories?

Constraints and limitations drive creativity, but you have accept a final product at some point and move to another universe/story.

No need to put homelab in quotes, it’s whatever is your lab. We all have different setups that grow and shrink as we learn.

Let me show you a smaller option than a full rack amp. I used this exact setup before except using an AirPort Express instead of the pi.

I would do the Pi (your plan) -> this -> bookshelf speakers like these.

Does everything have to be all in one, or are you open to exploring passive speakers and a receiver?

Since this is in Homelab, I’m assuming you have access to a 19” rack. You could rack mount any amplifier (I like crown amps personally) and then feed either a Bluetooth or Raspberry Pi using a line/headphone amp. That also gives you the ability to continuing adding amps to feed more speakers around the house. That’s my homelab answer.

Home theater answer would be to look at a home theater receiver.

What I wish it had was something similar to Roon which would be a Spotify integration. If I search for something and I don’t have it in my personal library, let me just stream it from my streaming service subscription.

If you use Plex or Jellyfin as a home media server, it allows movie preview trailers and other preroll media IIRC. You could completely recreate the theater experience. Throw in some old retro Disney or other shorts before a flick.

I’ve had a whole marriage that lasted shorter than since I’ve backed this game.

I deal with a lot of kids fresh out of college. The surprising part is how many don’t know what Windows File Explorer even is, much less file manipulation. Everything is saved to the desktop.

We just turn them sideways on a shelf at work. We use a lot of micro form factor and they look slick in a row on a 1u shelf. We fit 3 or 4 (can’t remember) wide across 6 shelves.

I’m having the exact same experience on the SteamDeck. Currently level 20 with about 50 hours in.

There are so many questlines and each are so damn good. Glad your having a good time!

How has your experience been so far with the cloud gaming? Having fun?

Bruh, all of this sounds creepy as shit.

I completely feel you. That’s the art of it, to indulge the imagination. Glad you are enjoying the game

So say the technology was theoretically possible, what is your take/how do you feel about neuroamps?

I agree, how missions were carried out could have been handled better… or was I playing the perfect corpo operative working for Ryugin to keep the PR department happy.

Edit: I truly wanted a burn it down path so my last sentence gives me the ick.

One engine powers down while the other goes full blast just sending you spinning.

That really sounds so cool! Glad you are bringing cool ideas like that to the game.

Now you can’t throw out some awesome idea like that without telling more specifics on what these ships will be! Imagine, the Roadrunner…

A cargo ship with Hector the Bulldog shooting flames decals on the side. So many cool ideas.

Since my comment was a veiled BDSM hab idea, in context you have quite the orgy star-fighter going on.

Physicist who takes too much LSD mad scientist or illegal human trials scientist?

I would expand that while there are technically differences between, its impact would be so small it would never matter in a Bethesda game.
