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

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.

Understand that they’re not doing this because of user feedback; they’re doing this because shareholders got cold feet about the whole thing after the backlash (so indirectly it’s still down to user feedback, but not really)

The regular iPods (non-classic) are the easiest IMO. No glue, no flipping over mainboards and no soldering. The iPod mini is actually the first modell I ever did a battery swap on and it would be just as easy, if it wasn’t for the trim pieces that break way too easily.

And the battery is an absolute nightmare to replace on any of the Nanos…

Surprise surprise

The damage has been done. But honestly, Windows 11 changed my life despite its shortcomings.

So thank you, Microslop, for making me embrace Linux.

Microsoft appears to be finally listening to users

They’re not, never will.

As if SpaceX could actually do that

Too right, brother

It’s about time the electronics industry as a whole realises that innovation for the sake of innovation is rarely a good thing
