  • I had to buy an adapter. I much prefer wired earphones, as somebody else commented, it’s much easier to switch wired ones between devices. With wireless you also have the issue of disconnecting them if you want audio through the phone speaker. I hate Bluetooth anyway.

    I also prefer the earphones which sit just in the ear, rather than the current style of ones that need to be forced inside. I don’t think you can get wireless earphones like that, probably because they would be lost easily. I like proper headphones too (so that’s an option for wireless), but they are quite bulky so not always convenient.







  • I use f2fs on my Raspberry Pis, it’s designed for flash storage and appears to have much better performance than ext4 on the same device. I’m not sure whether it’s suitable for SSDs, or just SD cards and USB (these devices are optimised for FAT and f2fs utilises that optimisation). When I tried to use f2fs on a proper laptop it was too early and the distro didn’t support booting from it. I assume that has changed now.

    As for the others, I usually stick with ext4 as I’ve never seen a compelling reason not to.













  • Yeah, there’s a bug where things get back to the original magazine but don’t federate back out to other instances until they are interacted with on the original instance. So if you post to a Kbin magazine nobody sees it, until somebody with an account on the original magazine’s instance upvotes it. I raised it on the Kbin issue tracker but nobody seemed to believe me even though I’d proved this was the problem.
