In a chapter on work, they called for an “artificial intelligence system” that “traces the list of young people who finish high school and university every year and connects them to companies in the sector.” This, the authors of the chapter wrote, would finally solve "youth unemployment,” as “the young person will no longer be able to choose whether to work or not, but [will be] bound to accept the job offer for himself (sic), for his family and for the country, under penalty of loss of all benefits with the application of a system of sanctions.”

Wow. So just state-sanctioned slavery. Work or you lose all benefits for which you and your family contributed and get fined.

They’ve slowed down by they do one occasionally as new games come out.

I watch the Monster Factory on YouTube. Specifically the more recent Dark Souls 3 episodes with the randomized translator for all text. Always puts be in a good mood.

Mine doesn’t have any of those problems. The only thing I had to do was ensure the input selection was set to PC.

But then I’m using it 90% to stream stuff that is web only and some occasional gaming with the bonus of being able to fill out forms, Google and do light note taking without getting a different device. My alternatives would be needing a laptop or tablet along with some streaming device.

No. Blue LEDs are used with a cover to create full spectrum white light. Bluer light makes our brain think it’s day time and can inhibit sleep.

If TVs would have it that would be nice. I use a PC attached to my TV and don’t have the option.

Are those Spotify alternative clients just for a better ux?

Thanks. I was interested how it was getting access to Spotify music library and suggestion algorithms but turns out it just isn’t.

Wonder why is trying to pretend to be Spotify when it could just market itself as a YouTube music interface.

Yes please. I want to watch them burn it down.

This might be the more inane and useless response I’ve seen on Lemmy. You can’t answer the simple question so you throw out a complete change of topic. Pathetic.

I have that. It imported the 2 certs it found. Still doesn’t work.

That’s the goal. I do like doing things the right way and learning new skills. But fuck it. Burned on Kobo.

I mean no one can even hear all the way up the bitrate of MP3s. So no one can actually hear FLAC.

also the page 100% says it supports up to 2tb sd.

No I was answering your question that the Sandisk didn’t support that.

e things you listed literally dont matter to me

Cool. I was asking what is so interesting about this $250 iPod and how does open source benefit it? Besides holding so many songs you’ll never listen to them I mean. It doesn’t appear to have functionality a player 1/5th it’s cost does. And no one has given me an answer on what functionality open source could enable for an mp3 player that isn’t already available.

I did install ADE first and did find the DRM epubs. I also pulled those into Calibre and saw the same thing: can’t open or convert because of DRM. Of note I have not configured the Obok plugin because I don’t have a Kobo device, but DeDRM is setup as I followed in the post above.

The second quote I can’t figure out how to use. Doesn’t seem to have an executable and isn’t a Calibre plugin as it isn’t a .zip.

Yes. Dedrm doesn’t appear to do anything. It doesn’t have a button like obok does. But the files won’t read.

You can’t hear flac. But no it doesn’t do 2tb. Is this $250 device water resistant? Does it have a clip? Does it have an FM tuner?

It popped up in calibre and knew the title but wouldn’t open. I didn’t see a dedrm button or option.

What benefits do you get from this device being open source? It’s not like a dumb mp3 player is stealing your data. Can it do anything traditional players can’t?

I tried the calibre dedrm plugin. Didn’t work. Spent about an hour going through the read mes and tutorial before giving up. There’s better ways to get what I payed for.

$50.

Edit: What’s the point of open sourcing this product? It’s an MP3 player. How does it utilize wifi? Does it run apps? Can it access a file server to download new media? The video and article doesn’t go into that at all. BT is nice but Sandisk $50 clip players have had that for a long time.

This seems like 5x the price for a dev product.
