@aeva you wouldn’t download chicago
@halcy I absolutely would >:D

oh so a cool happy surprise about this phone is it has four attach points that are nominally for attaching heavy duty industrial accessories, but for my reality they're functionally four anchor points for attaching phone charms :3
@aeva 🙀
I'm jealous -
this looks promising on the "smol" front https://store.arduino.cc/products/dfplayer-a-mini-mp3-player
@aeva you just unlocked an old memory: I wanted to make a soundcard for a Ti-84 connected through the 2.5mm jack because I wanted to have the ability to play sfxes and musics for a certain project I had on it while keeping the little CPU I had to for other stuff.

@aeva they kind of suck 😅 get an esp32 with i2s, which is way more flexible (check tangara, though probably hard to find). My current every day mp3 is a "aigo eros q" with Rockbox on it, very nice, also runs doom 👍

@tecteun tangara looks neat, but it's not available for purchase and it's unclear if it ever will be again

@tecteun what specifically is sucky about the dfplayer?

@aeva an arduino uno r4 looks like its powerful enough to decode mp3s without an external board https://learn.adafruit.com/native-mp3-decoding-on-arduino/overview
I'm considering this since the main way I listened to music has been enshittified and I have to drive to work these days.

@aeva if you are more interested into the crafting an mp3 player than the electronics, sparkfun have a lilypad mp3. Come read mp3, ogg and maybe flac from micro sd, as a jack for headphone, an tiny amp for stereo speaker, a jst connector and charge circuit for lipo battery. It's designed to be programmed with and ftdi programmer and be hooked up with conductive thread.

@aeva why is your cat so smooth and pretty 😭

i ordered some dongles so I can listen to music on the new phone (or be able to hear anything at all in phone calls womp womp), but honestly i'm giving serious consideration to getting a dedicated mp3 player
@aeva If it had bluetooth, I'd probably go back to my resurrected iRiver H300, such a cool device. It does have great quality with wired headphones, but when I'm out I don't want to give up wireless bone conduction.
Plus it has one of the features I most miss on all modern devices: an input lock switch. No accidental button presses possible.

@griotspeak @aeva they basically stopped production in june last year, if you didn't get yours (we didn't) before summer, it's unlikely you'll get one.
HOWEVER, the BOM and schematics are all opensource, so nobody would step someone from hitting their local manufacturer and get the shell and PCB's and buttons printed

@zanagb @griotspeak my local manufacturer of /what/?

@pupxel boris is very good at being a cat ^_^

Yeah, horrendous naming convention in our part.
Depending on where you are in the world you can ask some company to 3D print the case from it's schematics as well a send you a printed circuit board with most, if not all, the items on any given BOM soldered onto it. (probably outside of the MCU and display).
Of course there is nobody _manufacturing_ the tangaras but you probably can get most of it's components semi-assembled/soldered upon.

i also like that this thing has three buttons that can be assigned their own functions. i've got one set up to toggle on and off the flashlight function.

@zanagb @griotspeak is this something you personally have done?

@aeva this reads like the notes you find in a horror game

@pupxel "the device has three buttons that can be assigned their own functions. I've got one to toggle on and off the flashlight function, one to operate the camera, and one to [sudden dramatic static] *painful dry coughing* it's not much, but in this god forsaken place you make do with what you can to survive."

@aeva ship it :3

@ludicity it's just a bonus that it's an order of magnitude faster, has a standard library that's so good you barely need anything else (and what you do bring in from third party libs is mostly made by grownups who write clear, concise, no bullshit, code), and has a memory footprint that's dramatically smaller.
It's such a low bullshit language, I can't imagine using anything else for web services and web app backends.

@liberotoncello premetto che pur auspicando un boicottaggio USA, io voglio mollare WA per il suo disprezzo per la privacy. Signal è americano, ma ciò non toglie che al momento sia il miglior compromesso, perchè serve a poco avere un'App super etica se poi non la usa nessuno.
Consiglio alcune letture

@ludicity deploying large mostly Python (but also Node.js, and others) apps in a ridiculous variety of places has been a huge part of my job for the past...well, forever, and I'm really good at it. I'm the person everyone asks for help when they can't make it work and when ChatGPT can't make it work.
All of my web projects for the past two years or so are in Go, and I'm slowly migrating old stuff to Go, too. The deployment story alone is enough to make it worth the effort.

@swelljoe I've been making this case on my team for why we shouldn't develop in Python anymore, and they have been very patient but I think deep down they think I'm insane
(But legit I'm not too fussed with language specifics now and am on a big "But what are the deployment/runtime characteristics of whatever you write, assuming we're smart enough to write anything in any language that isn't Brainfuck" arc)

@molly0xfff I really do like blogging and I’ve done it on a few occasions. I just can’t seem something I like to write about consistently. I’m hoping someday something clicks

I really needed to stress out the comment system on my blog so I ask a Linux question.
