I can play with this little guy all day long.

The only reason I use Linux is because I can't get a mac.

What I was supposed to do today:

Finish up some homework and code for a bit

What I actually did today:

1. Boot up my laptop to get started on homework

2. Open Spotify and try to connect my headphones

3. Reinstall Bluetooth and pulseaudio to connect to headphones

4. Connected! But the sound quality is shit

5. Spend an hour or so learning about codec sinks and how Bluetooth is the definition of an overengineered clusterfuck

6. Install some package from the aur to get AAC codec support

7. Now we have high fidelity audio, but the headphones still connect to the crappy SBC sink, so I spend another 45 minutes writing a shell script to automatically switch to the AAC sink when a Bluetooth headset connects

8. It’s finally working! But now I have no motivation to do my actual work. Fml

Having a SBC collection....

wait does that count

Now my facebook messenger app does it's updates inside the app without my consent to install an apk.
I'm scared

My password manager!!
I use passwords I can never remember, stay logged in, next time I need to log_in I use the passqord forgotten button, reset it with my e-mail or better phone

I received this fantastic t-shirt 😌

My old iMac 2010 is returned operative after 12 GB of Ram; it seems reborn!

You know you hit rock bottom when can only comunicate with a chat bot.

Does anyone know a single-board computer like e.g. the raspberry pi that features a physical on-board audio input as well as an output?

I know that GPIO-header-boards like e.g. the hifiberry or WolframAudio (which seems somewhat deprecated by now) exist. I could probably also alternate to an USB-soundcard, but I'm curious whether someone might know a more compact solution.

I'm playing with a Z80 SBC, and I was trying to run the old Star Trek game on it. I had a C source file, and used a makefile to try to compile it. It failed due to various library issues, but I just checked the folder (I had done this earlier today) and there's an EXE of the Star Trek game sitting there. I don't know how I compiled it for Windows. I didn't use any CC or GCC commands. I'm just confused.

The sticker would look amazing on my laptop, too bad i'm not going to get one soon 🙁🙁

I'm using Fedora 25/ pre-release, and It's rock solid except for wifi hotspot and I don't need it.

Now my school gave me a Windows 10 pro key, and I'm hesitant.
Should I install it ?
Will I need it ?

Anybody using Jetbrains PyCharm on Linux ?

I need a scraper, or a f$$$in api
