Swap the keyboard for the old school ThinkPad key card from the x220. That thing is goat (you’ll want to either replace the palm rest or file the knobbins on the keyboard a bit)

I can absolutely make phone calls with both my One Plus 6T and my PinePhone.
- Comment on ✨A Practical Guide to IP Addresses: From Basics to Real-World Applications✨ 1 week ago:
That’s not really true though. If you’re say on a IP that is in the Bell Alliant range, I know you’re in the Maritime Provinces of Canada. That’s a lot narrower already than Canada. There’s a lot of ISPs that are pretty local and just knowing the IP will get you a lot closer.

And both of them are fascist dog whistles.
- Comment on It can be harder to surveil private conversations if everyone just used sign language. 1 week ago:
It also isn’t a single language. ASL is different than LSF, LSQ, or even LSFB, etc.

Beat/Swatch time was itself inspired by French Republican time.
- Comment on How does streaming compare to "analog"? 2 months ago:
But that’s even more true for broadcast. One 2.3kW transmitter works just as well for one receiver as it does for 10M. Hell even 100M, depending on geography, population density, and frequency band. That’s not true of network infrastructure.

- Comment on Spotifies come and Spotifies go, but that folder of badly-sorted MP3s will still be there in the 2050s. 2 months ago:
The reason I can’t let it go is because I actually would never find new music I like without it’s algorithm.
- Comment on The forgotten war on the Walkman 2 months ago:
They do indeed specify some sort of high voltage precision motor and a copper flywheel.
- Comment on The forgotten war on the Walkman 2 months ago:
It’s probably true for the head, but at least coming from Fiio there’s a good chance the rest of the system (motor, flywheel, etc) is top notch at least.

How’s the Fiio player? Also crappy heads?
- Comment on Dedicated music server or all-in-one media server? 2 months ago:
Ultrasonic and DSub(2000) both do. It’s so incredibly useful on roadtrips. Works really really well. I have the app live on the as card in my phone and keep the cache at a massive 100Gb, I have all my favorite music stores, in flac, ready to go at all times.
- Comment on Dedicated music server or all-in-one media server? 2 months ago:
Clients often are better suited for music, specially for mobile. For example with Subsonic clients (Navidrome, Gonic, etc), the client aggressively caches the queued songs, which is super helpful when there are hiccups in the network while traveling. A few clients allow me to configure the cache size, allow me to mark some titles are always cached, allow me to browse the cache (case I don’t have network at all). It’s just way better suited for music.
And on the desktop clients are way lighter weight.
