  • Yeah it’s a pain to install however. One of our dogs had a chomp on the wife’s set, took me quite sometime to disasemble the headphones just to install it.

    Honestly if you can get something to wrap over / stitch over the top go that route. The XM4 are fiddily as fuck to tear down just to replace the headband.

    Oh those are a clip on version. FML might have to get that to replace the black band on the grey set of headphones.







  • Running 50 on one machine, four on my fileserver and another on a hacked up hp eliteone (no screen) which runs my 3d printer. Believe my immich container is a nspawn under nixos too.

    Some are a wip but the majority are in use. Mostly internal services with a couple internet facing, I’ve got a good backlog of work to do on some with some refactoring my nixos configs for many too 😅.

    From my Erying ES system:



  • This is actually pretty minimal in Australia (as someone who has worked in Hospitality for 20+ years)

    Very few venues actually require this to enter, the majority check at the door or once you ae inside the venue.

    Edit: Some owners of multiple venues have rolled these systems out in the past that I’ve seen, generally ones that have seen a rise in patron issues. Its handy that if someone has caused issues in one place they won’t get allowed into another; but it’s not worth the privacy risk in my eyes.




  • “From the ID 2all onwards, we will have physical buttons for the five most important functions – the volume, the heating on each side of the car, the fans and the hazard light – below the screen,”

    Climate controls are one but sure, five most important functions. Honestly rip out the touch screen, implement buttons just as they had been previously then add the display; preferably with a decent HID as Mazda have done.

    I’m still driving a mk6 golf and really can’t imagine not having easy access to those features.



  • I’d been a windows user since the DOS / 3.1 days and converted to Linux maybe 2~ years ago. I’ve found that I’m able to tailor the desktop experience (on desktop / laptop) to exactly what I need. No shitware getting in the way or annoying bundled programs.

    My laptop has decent battery life and standby gives me no issues, perfect in my eyes.

    I can’t stand windows anymore, and I’m not one to lash out and buy a macbook to just experience another desktop enviornment / user experience.

    Admittedly there isnt any professional use just browsing / games with some codium usage.



  • I’d dare say the easier method, from memory the p6 should have a charge limit in the stock firmware.

    I’ve not an old Samsung s10+ kicking around with corrupted firmware, should really take a look at it and see if it can be up and running again. Not that I need more cores, ram, cameras or any additions to my equipment but just because.

    It fassinates me that consumer hardware, and low power at that goes wasted so often. So many small form factor devices such as phones, with built in ups aren’t being leveraged. But I guess that comes down to proprietary binary blobs and developer work on a per device basis.

    I might have to investigate what platforms mobile nixos supports and see if it’s cheap enough to dabble with.




  • Yeah have been meaning to pick a few up but it’s not been a top priority. Not really a developer more just a user that dabbles too much with a homelab while trying to be privacy & security conscious.

    The cost alone is a bit of a hurdle with money going to life / house currently and another purchase of some silly computer thing will trigger her.
