IT dingus from Germany who’s gonna move to Australia soon™
I mean, yeah, it does look kinda cool. Not sure why they think that all I do all day is stare at screws, but that’s just me.
“Hey mate, got a new car today”
“Wow, that’s awesome. How does it drive?”
“Dunno, I just bought it to look at the screws. Look, they’re shaped like the BMW logo!”
I mean yeah, audiophile cables are 100% a rip-off every time. You can spend thousands on a cable without it having any real benefits.
It makes more sense to just buy decent speakers and a decent amp, along with a good audio source (any CD player).
Transparency and Consent are definitely two words that come to mind when I think about Windows /s
That’s not really true. You can download lightweight models to run with LM Studio just as easily.
$85 a month for a mediocre laptop that I’m probably not allowed to modify in any way? Yeah, nah.
Doesn’t really sound like it’s going to affect me but maybe this will make more of my mates join matrix
Most places? Name one
Looks like a generic sub-$100 Chinese phone. Pretty sure the middle of those three “cameras” is fake, can’t really tell but the way it’s so much bigger than the others is a tell-tale sign with those devices.
I wonder why Trumpy doesn’t just ask his friend Tim Apple to make the iPhone exclusive to Dump Mobile.
I do that all the time.
There’s nothing weird about it, stop looking at me like that
My ThinkPad has one and it is just kinda there… despite it supposedly being remapable since Kernel 6.16 or so I can’t get it to properly remap.
I’d love to map it to open LM Studio lol
It’s cool to see this happening on non-android devices. I mean, yeah, you could install Android 13 on your 15 year old Galaxy SII right now if you really wanted to, but Android custom ROMS for old devices are rarely worth the trouble IMO; they’re often missing basic functionality and don’t perform great.
This is more interesting from a usability perspective. Granted, you still can’t use it as your main phone, as it doesn’t have 4G.
At least you’re doing something valuable
That’s fair
Maybe I still have too much faith in humanity, but no, I don’t think I underestimate the amount.
That’s not my point. Do you really think would people want to live out the rest of their existence in a digital space under the dictatorship of some power-hungry billionaires? If they can even be arsed to do anything, they’d most likely abandon it after a few years (just like what’s happening to the metaverse and every other similar online space already) leaving you spending your days in a literal void.
I’m sure some people would be interested, but I just can’t imagine a lot would find the idea of living in the metaverse appealing, even if it’s forever.
Giving full control to some nutjobs…
Why would anyone spend $900 on a modded iPod?
I love my FiiO X5II. It’s basically like a modern, hi-fi version of the first iPod without the shortcomings (i.e. the hdd).
It can play almost everything, from MP3s to DSD128, and it’s pretty decent at driving headphones up to I wanna say 600 Ohm. It’s very nicely built, too, and the battery is stupidly easy to swap. It has two slots for microSD cards (up to 512GB seem to work fine per slot)
Bought mine defective on eBay for 80€, fixed it up and now it’s my daily driver. Doesn’t have Bluetooth, though.
Who?
