Not that I have read about but I also haven’t looked to try and find out if it is a thing. I play everything I’m ripping at no faster than 2x in the hopes that it looks like normal enough activity whilst still saving me some time.

As I have said though I have been using soggfy for over a year now, ripping probably around 5000 tracks at a guess and had no issues what so ever :)

As a skateboarder I know the pain of tiny rocks and imagine it would be like that but with possibly more speed!

They look fun as a novelty for sure though.

Soggfy works perfectly as of Monday when I last used it.

You download a modified version of Spotify and then it rips the audio Spotify itself is sending rather than locating poor quality yt versions etc. If you pay for premium then you can get 320 mp3s or ogg files.

I’ve been using this for a little over a year and never once had an issue with it so worth checking out :)

Yeh, I’d like to give one a go for the novelty factor but they don’t seem like a solid safe transport option.

Someone in my town has one that does like 50kph. He wears leathers and a helmet etc but imagine trying to emergency stop when your brakes are “lean back”, you are never stopping in time in a real emergency. Fuck that.

I mean, the 6a still has 3 years of support left so whilst it is older it is hardly at the end of its supported life.

Not everyone can change a battery in a phone, I can but I would still rather not do it on a phone that isn’t really anything special and whilst yes they could feasibly last that long I think in practical everyday use application by the time you are getting to three years of daily use it will be beaten up and physically not in great shape any more for your average user.

What relevance does that have to what I said? If the physical phone isn’t going to last that long then I’d argue it is of little importance.

These devices aren’t even constructed to last 7 years. I don’t see that either of those things are worth £600 personally.

Fuck all that noise, Pixel 6a + graphene £130. Why waste so much money!?

I’ll watch entire videos and then leave before the last 20 seconds of bs is over and it won’t mark it as played for me and you’re out here having videos marked as played for just the preview player xD

This is the stupidest thing I’ve seen in a while. I have so many questions after reading that very uninformative “article” that has no actual details. Like how do you turn it to start, the author speculates that it would respond to pressure in different places through the feet, but then it looks like it is on fixed wheels. If the centre of those wheels facilitates turning with what looks like tiny cylinders not only if it going to feel weird but actual use in real world is going to be nigh on impossible, any tiny stones in there are gonna fuck your shit up.

As someone else said it looks like it’ll throw you given any opportunity.

“That said, the personal commuter is also going to appeal to people who love skateboards, and always wanted a battery-powered alternative!” It literally won’t. Anyone who can skateboard and sees this piece of shit will have a good laugh to themselves as they remember getting thrown off their board whilst they were learning by an innocuous tiny stone, then happily get back on their skateboards which are going to be infinitely more fun to ride.

Honestly it makes me sad that so much money is wasted in this world on trash like this that could be used to improve and further tried and tested things like in this case skateboards or scooters.

Come for new wubs every day.

I couldn’t tell you. The page / list was made for graphene and I don’t know the technical differences between running that and lineage + micro g so not sure if the same list could apply. Sorry.

Yeah i understand what you are saying and that is why everyone’s individual needs come into play.

I don’t know what country you are in and that can obviously affect things, my banks 2FA is an SMS. I have options in terms of the other things you mentioned, where as you may not have.

For people looking to change and are worried about banks bullshit here is a link to a list of currently supported bank apps.

“Making day to day life functionally impossible” is a bit drastic. I think that depends on each individual person, their needs both in terms of banking and privacy.

My banking app doesn’t work on Graphene but I also couldn’t care less. I can just as easily log in to my account via my browser on my phone if I need to do something and it isn’t exactly hard, it takes all of 30 seconds more than using an app.

I realise in some other countries you don’t have that option but were I in the same situation for me that would be enough to change banks, I don’t want to be forced to use an app for anything.

Everyone has different lengths they are willing to go to to protect their privacy and I’m willing to make my life slightly harder where as others may not but I think saying it makes life functionally impossible is a bit of an overstatement and it needs to be judged based on individual needs.

There is a list of what banking apps work and what don’t.I’ll post it in a top level comment for visibility.

Was on .world. Main points were to minimise centralisation of communities on .world and to maximise the number of people who can see the community based on some defederation and dislike of .world.

Thanks Blaze for supplying a link :)

Migrated the dubstep community to a different instance but will still be very much active, I will be posting 2 releases per day, prioritising new releases where I can.

Please also join in if you like some wubs :)

Yeah, as I said, I use an Xbox one controller with a USB C cable. My PC has a USB C port so I just use C to C. I just wish there was a permanently wired official version of the controller that did away with the huge battery compartment on the back :)

I don’t care about colours or AA batteries, I’d rather have a cable personally, I do agree on the choice though.

Anything from the 360 onwards are my preferred controllers. A permanently wired 360 controller that does away with the massive battery compartment it my favourite but these days I use an “Xbox one” version with the USB C cable.
