mp3 player Anonymous 09/08/2024 (Sun) 09:34:25 No. 742 [Reply] [Last]
I want to buy an mp3 player but I don't know which one is the best, so I'm asking you to help me choose one, please. I found this: https://www.amazon.fr/AGPTEK-Bluetooth-Enregistreur-Supporter-T%C3%A9l%C3%A9phone/dp/B0CKV9HDP2/ but I don't know if its true or false. xhat do you think of it?

I use the Sandisk Clip Jam and it's great. - doesn't require to change batteries all the time, can be charged like a phone and the battery works for days on end with heavy usage - can sort by metadata (album/artist/name/...) - doesn't break easily - can run OGG, MP3 and FLAC (FLAC!!!!) (maybe it can do more, I just haven't tried) - storage space 8gb, but can be extended by arbitrarily large Micro-SD card
>>
just go ipod classic or eros q. both runs rockbox. ipod is easy to upgrade, if you take gen 5th. they might be a bit expensive but its almost the same than a spotify subsciption during a yr. also if you got an old android phone, you could just use that and load it with tons of flac/mp3s
>>
>>742 No idea what mp3 player is best (probably a refurbished iPod or something not gonna lie), but I've been using a Ruizu X02 with an sd card (up to 128gb, I tested it) for a while and it's great, and supports .wavs and other things like that. Hasn't failed me yet and honestly a great device imho. I don't use bluetooth so I'm not sure if it works well, my sister has one and got hers to work but I'm not sure if it's any good since she mostly just streams music now. Battery life seems good to me but I've never really measured it. Whatever you do, DO NOT buy a Retekess V115 - It's audio quality is great for mp3s (although it's clunky), but the thing complete died after about 7 months - and no, it wasn't the battery, I tried a different one. Whole thing just fried itself. Also, the shortwave reception is garbage.
>>
>>1027 Quick note: UI isn't the best, but I got used to it pretty quick. Also there is an update for the UI you can download somewhere but I've never used it. Also, if you make a playlist directly on the device, it can only have 100 songs, which is kind of a bummer (it only lets you make 3 on the device but I think there's a way to sideload more, but I've never done it).

Where do you discuss programming online? Anonymous 10/26/2023 (Thu) 22:00:01 No. 240 [Reply]
I just don't know what places are good anymore... I used to be a regular on 4chan/g/ several years ago, but it's gone to shit so much that even I can't take it anymore and I haven't been able to figure out where else to discuss tech/programming online. Do you have any places where you go regularly? The only one that I use other than random subreddits for whichever topic is hackernews, but that place is just no fun at all

LLMs Hallucinate and make random shit up all of the time, if you try to ask one to write anything that's not in python (which nobody actually uses because it's terrible) or anything more complex than a leetcode problem (which most things are), it's going to spit out a bunch of random nonsense that it has no knowledge of. TLDR; 9/10 times, you have to spend more time debugging the AI code than you would have to spend if you just wrote it yourself

Why use tmux?? Anonymous 11/09/2024 (Sat) 16:14:12 No. 914 [Reply]
Why should I use tmux over the tiling and tabbing features of my window manager or those already built into many terminals?

I do nothing at all, the screen just randomly goes blank. It only happens once in a while though

>>914 There exist much better alternatives, such as [Alt]+[F*], gpm, dvtm and abduco.

>>981 it's significantly better now but a few years ago just launching minecraft on nvidia was enough for me
>>
>>997 abduco is nice, I use a4[1] instead of dvtm because it's lighter and I find the UI a it more pleasing. Also, it actually seems to handle text wrapping better than dvtm. [1] https://github.com/rpmohn/a4
>>
i don't use tmux as i am a gnu screen loser but some pros are - using it on a vps. i just reattach the screen instance and all of my work is still there. - have one terminal window over several - i like to do work in the tty as less power usage and distractions - screen + emacs -nw is a nice combo - i use xterm

I know some people like to bad-mouth Linux Mint, but it eased me into it understanding things and it's pretty comfortable for what it is. Put it on my ancient, dying laptop and it runs nicely.
>>
>>429 I can't see the reason to talk down about Linux Mint when it's literally superior compare to Windows 10 and 11. I know some people have higher standard on Linux distro but I find it ridiculous.
>>
>>337 Well, OP, now that you familiarized yourself with POSIX-like GNU/Linux-based OSes, consider using either of these: Gentoo, Funtoo, Obarun, Joborun, Parabola, Hyperbola, CRUX, Chimera, Bedrock or lo/g/os The mentioned distos give much more freedom to the user, than "mainstream" ones do(n't). Out of these, only Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre is a fully free/libre distro, which follows the GNU FSDG.
>>
>>337 Honestly as someone who uses mint id say go with mint. Based on your post, you have no experience with linux so you want something new user friendly. Mint is based on ubuntu the most popular distro but (from what I understood) ubuntu was doing some retarded things with its distro and mint reverses on those stupid changes(so i was told im not too technically inclined myself) Additionally it comes out of the box with DE that is familiar to windows desktop. Do not fall for the niche distro meme. You need to use a popular one because then you have all the people to assist you with your questions and all the software support you can get.

>>910 There's a decent bit of space behind me so I just roll my chair back if I want to watch anything on it but honestly I mostly just put my music player up there, or some effects stuff for music production. It's pretty useless and probably not what I'll do when I move house soon. Also behind me is the obligatory ikea glass display case that every figure collector on the planet has, and one time while drunk I rolled my chair back way too enthusiastically and crashed right into it. By some miracle I managed to not shatter any of the panels but it was loud as fuck.
