Why can't you find any good MP3 players today? I hate having to use my phone (which doesn't even have an audio jack) to listen to music.
>>107837042Innioasis y1>inb4 in yo asses
I tried using my phone but within a few weeks the headphone jack was broken. Phones are too big as audio players, which you typically put into a pocket that barely fits it, putting way too much mechanical stress on the plug and jack. And screw bluetooth IEMs, not gonna put a chink shit lithium bomb in my ears and I don't want to have to charge them in the first place.Meanwhile I've been using my small and light sansa clip+ for over a decade without issues (except the volume up button being broken, but I can set the volume via settings so no big deal)
>>107840203Cool. Thanks.
Waiting for more news about this beast

>>107840430The face unlock is genuinely really good, I don't miss the fingerprint reader at all if I'm being honest. I am not a battery expert though, so you should probably look up a guide on battery tests for it. A full charge usually gets me to around 40-50 percent by the time I'm home but that's with my watch connected too and I'm on data for about 10 hours when I leave my house because I don't trust public wifi or my work wifi, and I don't like LTE so I have 5G turned on, which I'm sure eats through a lot. Another gripe I forgot to mention is the lack of a "close all" button for apps so I'm sure me leaving a ton of apps open all the time doesn't help the battery either.>>107840414What's liquid? Is that part of the UI?
>>107840468>so I'm sure me leaving a ton of apps open all the timeFrom what I understand iOS automatically suspends background activity for closed apps, except edge cases like messaging apps or background music.I may have even read that you can't even upload to google drive in the background? You need to have the app open for any progress to happen.>What's liquid?NTA but that's the "term" for the new glass-like design of iOS 26.
How much can I trust a used iPhone that lists 100% battery health but has anywhere from 100 to 250+ cycles? I can't help but worry that it will start dropping 1% every month as soon as I buy it.
>>107840607If it's on Swappa it's probably fine if it's from a reputable dealer. Why not just buy a brand new one though? If money is an issue just do a payment plan or something.
>>107840670It's between a used 16PM and a brand new 17 for me. I kinda want the bigger battery, but then again it's already had 100+ cycles of wear.A brand new 16PM is hard to find, and the 17PM looks retarded with that long visor instead of the "classic" (come on, 2019 was like 20 years ago) camera island.
talking about this guy not pic related but still relevant: https://www.youtube.com/@tokyospliffWhy are redditors so entranced by people like this? >Dude! he's disheveled because he is so friggin' CRACKED at coding broooooooo! Monk energy broski! >brooooo look at this shitty game he made! It's akshully super impressive because uhhhh...he's like Terry Davis or something! Shut the fuck up nigga. Redditors are some of the most surface level shit-eaters in existence. They see some slimy, whole-chungus programmer and think he's some kind of mystic because hollywood capeshit told them people like that are the REAL GENIUSES broooooo! If you think someone like this guy or Luke Smith is even an inkling above average intelligence you are 100% a reddit shit eaterTechnology becomes so incredibly cringe when it's use is self-fellating nonsense and show-pony trinkets to show what a special little boy you are. It's called software ENGINEERING not trinket tinkering or show and tell. No one cares about your chopped ps2 looking ahh uncslop
if someone calls programming "coding" you can just ignore their opinion
>>107839647i mean he just works on his renderer on stream no reason to call him out or bitch about it, much less artificially concern yourself with what reddit thinks about him. you use reddit? have you ever used graphics apis? pygame doesn't count. if you can show me your ogl/vulkan renderer i'll gladly accept your opinion as valid. here's mine https://github.com/changelight/oceanlight/tree/development

>>107839256What is it these monitors did to the video signal for it to look that clean? I plug it into a normal CRT TV and it looks like fucking ass in comparison.>>107839532>buy a series of adaptersSeems it outputs composite but it's on a DIN plug instead of standard RCA. I'd probably get a normal AV to HDMI converter, an RCA cable, and a DIN plug, and solder the wires to the right pins on the DIN. Though the lazy way is to just cut and strip the RCA cable and jam the wires into the correct holes on the DIN socket.

What do I use now that Windows 10 is dead?
>>107814601>Do you remember being a kid and going to your grandparent's house and they had a family computer in the corner of the kitchen or living room and it was 486 with Windows 95 or something and all it got used for was email and maybe a desktop shortcut to MapQuest?>That's our destiny anon, it's time to embrace the inevitable.That was my Aunt's computer back in the day and I even played Oregon Trail on it one Thanksgiving.As for me, not only do I embrace that Destiny but I welcome it and Windows 7 will be the vessel that takes me there. Fuck computers, I'm done.

>>107838231Exactly like Cable today:- garbage surrounded with ads
>>107840577That's exactly how it feels ay. Cable used to be so fucking good (we call it Foxtel here) because it used to have far less ads and content was way more focused on what it was initially set to do. But textbook example for what went wrong there is MTV going from showing non-stop music vids to... fucking Jersey Shore by 2008ish. Apparently 2000ish was when it became that bad. I only have a small amount of memories of that earlier golden period of cable. It really did feel like youtube for a while there. But don't get me wrong, YT isn't even as close to as bad as how cable became.
This "operating" system is the biggest piece of shit I've ever come across in my fucking life. It can't'even be classified as an operating system. Windows 11 is a fucking website made with React by the antichrist himself, whose sole purpose is to consume 2 TB of RAM just by opening Notepad, how could you screw up so badly as to ruin Notepad, to ruin Paint, howthe hell did Micropenis manage to add a battle pass to Solitaire, you motherfucking pieces of shit? How can a rational, moral human being with brain cells defend thís mutant technological abortion, 30% programmed with Al? my ass, not even an Al agent would be capable of screwing up so badly as to create this android ripoff. This is the result of a bunch of bad decisions made by peopie whose brains, unfortunately, were unable to develop fully, whose balls got stuck in their abdomen during birth and who don't shit themselves by some miracle of God. 1 bet my vital organs that these morons aren't aware of how shitty this operating system is because everyone at Microsoft uses MacOS. I thought operating systems were programmed by programmers not the fucking marketing department. To those` subnormals, I propose a brilliant marketing campaign: rename this mistake to Windows 9/11, this fucking shitty operating system forces me to use L*nux (Mint, because ï'm not a pedo), at least with that I don't have to drop everything I'm doing and restart the computer for every fucking update, how the hell do you manage to release an update every fucking day? What's being updated, your chromosomes?. One day I'm going to really lose it, and when that day comes, I'Il create a Microsoft account and I swear to God that every time I take a shit, I'1 take a picture of it and upload it to my OneDrive just to fill my OneDrive with high-quality photos of my feces. This OS made me an atheist, because I refuse to believe that hell exists, I refuse to believe that there is anything worse than having to use Windows 11.
>>107834038Its a public company. You think shareholders want to hear>we spent this quarter on fixing bugs and stability of the OS.

How come C# isn't more popular when it's basically Java but better? Is it because people distrust a language maintained by Microsoft, or does the JVM have non-obvious but crucial advantages over the CLR?

>>107840321>was originally just another Microsoft attempt to 'embrace extend extinguish' a threat to its dominance, in this case Java,
>>107834144Java's entire schtick is that it's cross platform. C# only exists on windows desktop (desktop is a tiny fraction of the software market) and windows server (windows has a small minority share of the server OS market)
>>107840376>(windows has a small minority share of the server OS market)those kinds of stat charts only point to public web servers, and maybe databasesWindows Server is used for a lot of enterprise software which isn't exposed to the internet or advertised online. C#, being a Java clone, also shares its primary use case of web-enabled enterprise softwarepretty much all companies use Active Directory and other Microsoft/Office/SharePoint stuff, all of which run on Windows Server

I'm trying to recover data from a Windows 98 PC, and I would like to back up the hard drive (which appears to be failing). I can still read data intermittently, and it sounds like it keeps doing repetitive seeking before it gives me data read errors and general drive read failures. The computer doesn't even detect the drive half the time, and it won't boot from that drive at all.I would like to try and boot from a Linux recovery distro and see what I can do, namely clone the failing drive before doing anything else, but the optical drive doesn't appear to be plug-and-play (I can't boot off of it because the optical drive only works after drivers are already loaded), and I couldn't get a USB stick to work, so it seems like the only option left is to boot from a 1.44MB floppy disk and get the computer to clone the hard drive itself. I've added another drive, and that one works flawlessly, so it seems only the master drive is bad.It's actually harder to get a straight answer on which linux distros you can boot from a floppy disk than I would've thought. It doesn't even matter if it has to be an old version, people are saying the wrong version number is capable of doing so (like with RIPLinuX, so I don't know which ridiculous version to use), and I'd prefer one centered on data recovery anyway.It's a "Proteva Pro Series" PC, I guess. (Not pictured.) It doesn't sound very distinct, but apparently they thought it was distinct enough to brand it that way.
>>107838299>What if I don't have another computer that can interface with IDE drives,There are literally adapters out there for that purpose, anon.
OP hereI almost wonder if the solder joints on the hard drive might be bad too, those connectors would get stuck in there.
>>107840132*It doesn't help that I started fucking with the computer before I even first turned it on to see if it still worked after sitting in storage in a basement. It worked before when I last used it years ago, but I guess probably none of that matters now.
