Didn't think I would care much about the 4k on the new TV, but I am loving my FoxtrotGPS maps in all their high definition.

@Citizenzibb@fosstodon.org Never mind, already tried that last night, no luck.

@Citizenzibb@fosstodon.org I'll try this a little later, nothing else worked so far...

ALSA is doing some annoying popping after I updated it and my kernel. I'm assuming it's ALSA because the problem persists across Pulseaudio and JACK. Sound on Linux is a rabbit hole, and if you ever get everything working like you want, a party is in order.

@fribbledom That's nice

@xixiangdong I had a habit of taking things apart as a kid, my parents had a phone similar to this. I almost got it put back together!

@dallin@librem.one Not sure how far your family and friends are, but I've been wanting some of these, they would have been a lifesaver on a cruise we did last year.

Found my first cellphone while looking for my multimeter. I really didn't want one at the time, but it was getting socially awkward. Definitely didn't like smartphones because they seemed like a Swiss Army knife; could do a lot, but nothing well. Then the iPhone pretty much changed that. Talk about being wrong! How many devices does a phone replace these days?

Watching No Safe Spaces by Dennis Prager and Adam Carolla. Have always liked Prager. Many of you people on the Fediverse are liberal, but you guys see that there are a lot of ideas being used in your name that are poisonous. Free speech is of the utmost importance. If Hitler wanted to give a speech on a college campus, you should be able to listen to it and determine it to be the BS that it is. Dark times ahead I'm afraid.

Good thing I have a bigger one lying around🙂

Proud owner of a new graphics card that doesn't fit in the case...

@dallin@librem.one Phones then used plain old telephone service(POTS). Now everything has pretty much moved to VOIP, so no redundancy if the internet goes out. Progress.

@messenjahofchrist I hear so much hate and vile speech coming from a lot of the left that is completely lacking in decency. There is no concern for honor or righteousness in how they play politics. I so wish that we could get to a place politically where the politicians could behave like decent human beings. You are right, but this isn't just about abortion, we need someone who interprets and upholds the Constitution in the spirit in which it was written. Mercy would be foolish.

Take notice of heavenly things while you can...

@M0YNG More like arrrf shield

@jmclaughlin91 It is a bit infuriating knowing that maybe an extra $10 thrown at the hardware during manufacturing would significantly extend the life of the appliance.

@M0YNG Pretty neat! That heat sink(?) looks like a Captain's Wafer!

My 55" TV/computer display went on the fritz yesterday and started blinking on and off. Pretty confident that I could repair it in 2/3 hours, but I bought a new one today anyways. Probably will give it a go next week, but it would be nice to give it to a motivated kid to fix. I wonder where I can find one of those? I now realize that many of the "wasteful/lazy" things I saw adults do when I was a kid were really just opportunities thrown to me.
