I too have an issue with endless loading on sierra (the circle continuously circulating throughout playing).

I thought the picture in picture for sierra wasn't native to all videos but rather the developer has to tap into the API, maybe new WebKit api. I didn't look that hard when I first saw the feature.

I'd like to throw in the gem recommended by the great 8-4 crew, Gotta Protectors. Cheapish eShop game that one may easily skip over but hot damn is it worth it. Music done by some old school Japanese greats from geneis/(s)nes era? I don't remember specifics but it doesn't matter because it's good.

Otherwise:

-Pokemon R/B/Y (nostalgia play for me)

-Rhythm Heaven

-Shovel Knight

-Pokemon Puzzle League (Panel de Pon)

-Bomberman

Hopefully different than the standard meat and potato recommendation of the system.

realkana.com is amazing and will net you the hiragana and katakana within a week or two. Tofugu and wanikani are also amazing with incredibly generous free trials.

So the answer is no and pretty objectively so in the infosec/cybersec world. Im not talking about trusted applications and sideloading, I'm talking about real security exploits. For example, dirtycow is currently unpatched on android devices, you can research this exploit on your own.

Good news is there havent been a good amount of reports for android devices successfully being tampered with. Recently a journalist was at the receiving end of a phishing attack attempting to exploit his android phone via a malicious URL.

There's a quick run down and you'll know if this kind of 'safe' is what you need to care about or not.

I like the necro post but I'll chime in. The sound magics have been the best cheap line for awhile now. Headfi has been blowing the soundmagic horn for awhile and they're the only site I go to for expert opinion.

I've been surprised by Need for Speed's updates post launch. I played the beta and came to the conclusion it wasn't worth the sticker price, but a sale price and decent free updates make it a good title to have in my library when there's so much I never bother with anymore.

Using overcast.

I was assuming that there weren't beastcasts being produced for some reason when I noticed that new episodes werent being added to the feed. Turns out the feed just isn't being updated anymore for whatever reason. Tried to readd the feed as that's my goto fix for this site and it won't even add anymore. Not sure what's going on but the feeds and in particular the premium ones have been janky af for quite awhile now.

Was working, now it's not. Nothing changed on my end.

edit: regular feed works with login prefix but not premium? Was there a ninja change to require the API now and no one said anything? I'm now using the non premium feed for both podcasts as the premium feeds are busted

I liked Dan's synergy while temporarily over there so this is good news to me.
