the good thing about miniDisc is that its relatively easy to get the tracks back off it again. like if you wanted to share a disc with a friend, they could copy the tracks onto their computer using webminidisc or some other software. all th

has anyone read the translation by james legge? that's the only copy i have but i haven't got around to reading it yet. would it be better to go with something else even if i have to pay for it? https://standardebooks.o

heres a few general ones. on my linux computers i have a bash script to install firefox, then it sets up symlink of the user.js file from my own config folder to the default .config folder. on windows i just manually add it user_pref(&q

by mackrevinack 3y ago
the user.js file is a very underrated feature as well. i have a few computers and some of them are dual boot which means i have a lot of firefox installs so its great just being able to drop in the user.js file and have everything set up th

when i was younger we made good use of those headphone splitters to share music on the bus home from school or wherever. how long has bluetooth been a thing now and it still doesnt have that feature? i use bluetooth headphones here and ther

by mackrevinack 3y ago
another plus for using a bluetooth reciever. something like the fiio btr3. it still works while charging and can be used with any headphones or earbuds. it will hopefully last me longer too since i probably have more chance of replacing the

that really bugs me any time i have to use a Windows computer. on linux (on pop os or zorin os at least) you just hold down the super/windows key and then left click and drag anywhere on the window to move it. pop os also puts a thick

"a system that cannot be controlled, censored" sounds like the Safe Network! too bad it will never be finished in our lifetimes
