More like “Wanna root?”

I have a HifiWalker H2, a Chinese MP3 player that works off SD cards. The default firmware is Linux-based, but you can also flash it with Rockbox.

Also, in the age of online communications, when information can be limitlessly copied, it’s impossible for authoritarians to destroy information they disapprove of. It is possible, however, for them to make it difficult to find by flooding the world with vast quantities of plausible-looking alternatives to it, making it hard to identify what is real. Before LLMs, doing this at the sort of scale that would have been effective was prohibitively laborious.

Was the video made in Australia or New Zealand by any chance? There are two Microbees (Z80-based computers from New Zealand, virtually unheard of in the northern hemisphere) in the photo,

I can vouch for Mythic Beasts

So, sort of like the segment-laying part of tunnel-boring machines, only flipped and scaled up?

He should be awarded a prize for services to womens’ horticulture, given the number of women at MIT who filled their offices with houseplants just to keep him away.

RMS doesn’t approve

How about “jackanapes”?

I love Weimar America as much as I love Weimar Germany. ICE can have jazz, rock’n’roll, the beat poets, David Lynch, Prince, Bikini Kill, Calvin & Hobbes, etc. when they take them from my cold, dead fingers

The 3.5” disk was designed as a consumer product by Sony, whose industrial design is second to none. (Compare the 5¼ “ and 8” floppies, which were designed by IBM engineers and only intended for use by technical specialists.)

Ah yes, the honorary socialist mullahs of Iran

Surely when number goes up far enough, it magically gains sentience and godlike powers

The sound fidelity of vinyl is measurably inferior to CD-quality digital audio, as the technology introduces various kinds of distortion. Some of these are perceived as “warmth”, and/or bound in with the ritual of playing the record, so some people see it as a plus.

I’ve bought a few records in recent years, though have never actually played them. I bought them for the artwork, and listen to the FLAC files that came with the Bandcamp download code.

Does iOS use RCS everywhere, or only if your and/or the recipient’s phone carrier are specifically supported?

Was this an initiative of Trump’s new design department, or something preceding that that wasn’t scrapped?

As a place to stay when travelling, I’m all for capsule hotels. You don’t get woken by backpackers coming and going as in a dorm, and if you’re out and about enjoying the city you paid to visit, you’re not going to be spending any more time in your accommodation than required to sleep, so why pay for a full suite?

Having said that, if work wants you to come into an office you don’t live near, you should be able to expense the accommodation.

There are non-flat-headed cats?
