I use bxactions (not FOSS) to use it as a play/pause button. Can easily pause and skip tracks keeping the phone in my pocket.

Picked one with a funny name and the admin seemed quite relaxed but it appears to have gone offline permanently.

The boys and Call of Duty. Unfortunately I know this doesn’t work out.

Thanks for getting back to me. The rewards was why I signed up. Welp.

Hadn’t used Firefox in ages. Stuck it back on asking with uBlock. Quite liking how it blocks pages from jumping to an app.

I just need to work out how override it when I actually do occasionally want to follow a link to the playstore!

What’s the sneak stuff in Brave?

I mean it shouldn’t be too much of an issue for manufacturers to make the change to these products to allow for replacement batteries. These devices being useless after only the battery failing is definitely an issue.

What you’ve described should be avoidable.

If they are in ears/over ears you could have a look online for teardowns. Some headphones can have the battery replaced it’s just not “official” and would invalidate any warranty but it looks like you’ve maybe not got too much to use.

Nice, good to see it starting to happen.

I’ve seen a few comments about Bluetooth headphones and TWS earbuds but I don’t think it’s really too much of an issue. For over ear style headphones Steel Series have already proved the concept as they have a headset that has hot swappable rechargeable batteries. No reason other manufacturers can’t design a fitted one that could be replaced.

As for TWS buds, so many of these must already be in landfill when the tiny batteries give out. We’ve already got rechargeable batteries for hearing aids that can be replaced by the user. I’m sure something similar could be achieved for TWS buds.

Sausage party.

Nice. It’s a bit different from my usual listening. Plus my Spanish is very very basic.

Another that came up on the generator with a sort of similar vibe was Getz/Gilberto, more light jazz but you might like it (if you don’t already know it).

Buena Vista Social Club. It came up on the 1001AlbumsGenerator. It’s probably the album I’ve revisited the most.

Nice one cheers

How do you follow a tag? I’ve got the Mastodon App and Tusky and can’t work it out on either.

I’ve heard that too, product launches = promotion so they keep churning them out.

I got curious and installed it there, Hangouts chats from 2015 - 2018 all appeared. This isn’t as brand new as they’d make you believe.

Just thought I’d come back to share this if you haven’t already seen it. They’re at it again!

Lemmy.film has a headphones community but it’s just starting out.

A lot of reading there, I’ll be honest, I cherry picked a few bits.

It is for the most part not the best but I still use it for sending uncompressed images. If you use the Google messages SMS app it does offer a bit more. I still think they should get a bit of Kudos for trying but at the same time. The iterative death, rebrand and rebirth of Google messaging platforms has been terrible. Allo was the worst in my opinion.

Yeah, that’s true. Pretty much every messenger has that issue, Signal, Telegram, etc. Ideally there would be an open standard like email, SMS and you could choose your preferred app and have cross messaging and group chats.

RIM made a similar play when they kept BBM closed to their phones and it backfired but Apple seem to have the opposite effect from keeping it all in house.

I think they are maybe referring to Apple’s reluctance to integrate with RCS.

Update, 6 now.
